BWS COO: The plant meets all the international standards. 

Sanjay Keshwani, Chief Operations Officer at Belize Water Services Limited, told the press during a live press conference that the BWS Sewege treatment plant in Belmopan was upgraded in 2015.

“This plant meets all the standards suggested by the D.O.E. and, as a matter of fact, international standards as well.” He said that the plant is working to the best efficient capacity.

“We don’t have any issues with the plant nor smell.”

The land that the government purchased is located near the Sewege treatment pond. The land, which was purchased for $6.9 million, will be used to build the now controversial hospital.
