BANGKA - The Environmental Agency (DLH) of South Bangka Regency, Bangka Belitung Islands Province, checked the waste disposal system for the vaname shrimp pond company.

"We checked the shrimp pond waste disposal system because some fishermen complained about it," said South Bangka DLH Head Nefi Nuranda in Toboali as reported by ANTARA, Wednesday, May 22.

Nefi explained that one of the vaname shrimp ponds in the local area dumped it into the sea which caused unrest among fishermen because it damaged their fishing area.

"In the future, we will continue to go to the field, to monitor, supervise and urge company owners to pay attention to environmental impacts when disposing of waste," he said.

He appealed to the company to pay more attention to waste management problems so as not to cause environmental pollution.

"However, we believe the company has good management related to waste management because there are several ponds for processing," he said.

He said, if the management and cultivation technique did not comply with the standards, the company would suffer losses.

"Regarding the results of the examination of the alleged waste into the sea, we are waiting for the results whether their errors in managing it or indeed according to the SOP," he said.

The local government, he said, supports the investment world, including the vaname shrimp pond company because it absorbs a lot of labor.

"We certainly need good investment in this area, but in operation we must pay attention to environmental impacts and social impacts," he said.
