Question: Many districts and communes in Hai Duong province are applying the model of waste classification at source. How will the act of not classifying solid waste at home be handled?
PERSISTENT (Nam Sach)
Reply:
Pursuant to Clause 1, Article 26 of Decree 45/2022/ND-CP dated July 7, 2022, stipulating administrative sanctions for violations in the field of environmental protection, it is stipulated that:“Fines from 500,000 to 1,000,000 VND for households and individuals who do not classify domestic solid waste according to regulations; do not use packaging to contain domestic solid waste according to regulations".
Therefore, households that do not classify solid waste will be fined from 500,000 - 1,000,000 VND.
