The Beetham Land­fill re­opens to­day, af­ter a fire dis­rupt­ed its op­er­a­tions over the past three days.

In a state­ment, the Trinidad and To­ba­go Sol­id Waste Man­age­ment Com­pa­ny Ltd (SWM­COL) said it had been work­ing close­ly with the En­vi­ron­men­tal Man­age­ment Au­thor­i­ty (EMA) and the Trinidad and To­ba­go Fire Ser­vice (TTFS) fol­low­ing a fire at the land­fill ear­li­er this week.

The com­pa­ny con­firmed that the TTFS was called in on Mon­day to con­tain the blaze, and while a few smoul­der­ing ar­eas re­main, smoke lev­els had dras­ti­cal­ly re­duced.
