Public Notification on disposal of Waste

The Department of Environment and Climate Change, Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources notifies the general public to dispose of your waste only in the waste drop-off designated areas
identified by the Local Government Authorities. Please refrain from disposing any kind of waste including after offerings into the water bodies as it will lead to irreversible consequences to the
environment and human health.
The disposal of waste directly into the environment other than at the designated places will be in contravention with the Waste Prevention and Management Regulation, 2012. The Department
would like to request the general public to refrain from committing such acts and if found, serious actions will be taken as per the relevant environmental laws. We solicit cooperation from
the general public to protect our environment and stay ‘Zero-waste’ at all times. Make ‘MyWaste, My Responsibility’ and truly live Bhutanese Core Value.
