Debris Collection Continues into March

With continuing amounts of reconstruction/demolition debris showing up around Grand Cayman, MC Reconstruction will continue to be available for collection to the middle of the second week of March. The company will continue this service until it reaches its target of 300,000 cubic yards of collected debris. At mid-week, MC had collected some 250,000 cubic yards.

To assist in speedy pick up of reconstruction debris, residents are asked to place these materials on the roadside, as MC will not, as preciously indicated, enter private property. Debris should be placed along the roadside in a manner that does not disrupt regular traffic flow.

Residents should arrange for pick up by calling 916-2625.

At press time, a decision had not been reached on extending the contract with MC Restoration. Government is investigating options relative to the ongoing need for debris collection. Residents are meanwhile urged to utilize the service provided by MC Restoration in order to minimize future long-term need for debris removal.

As part of the contract with MC Restoration, plans are being finalized to remove derelict vehicles from the island. Talks are currently being held with the Port Authority to determine the type of vessel that can be safely used for this purpose. Once all details have been finalized, MC will proceed with the removal.

While continuing collection, MC is also processing the debris at the various dumping sites. The aim is to restore the sites to their original state.
