The National Institute of Technology-Calicut (NIT-C) is expected to shortly submit its report on the volume of legacy waste that remains to be biomined at the Kochi Corporation’s dumping yard in Brahmapuram.

“The agency has already conducted a drone survey for the purpose, and the report may be forthcoming as early as this week,” said Mayor V.K. Minimol. This is the second time that the NIT-C has been approached with a similar task. On its earlier assessment, it had found an additional 1.46 lakh tonnes of legacy waste over and above the 7 lakh tonnes initially calculated for biomining.
