| The Environmental Protection Agency has threatened legal action against Mr. Awad Boodhoo, the owner of a hardware store, located at 42 Cotton Field, Essequibo Coast. However, Mr. Boohoo is not taking that threat lightly; in fact he has already consulted with his attorney.According to the manager that oversees operation at its Essequibo location, Mr. Rakesh,Cheap Jerseys From China Online, noted that the story has its genesis in the numerous letters of complaint that have been penned to the EPA by Boohoo’s neighbour who resides on the left.In the notice that was dated November 20,NFL Cheap Jerseys China, 2009,China Jerseys Cheap, the EPA contends that the operation of the storage bond continues to pose a severe risk to public health and the environment further in accordance with the EPA Act 1996, part v Sec.19 [1] [a]-‘a person shall not undertake an activity that causes or is likely to cause pollution of the environment, unless the person takes all reasonable and practicable measures to prevent or minimise any resulting adverse effect.’Mr. Rakesh told this newspaper that he believes that the real problem has surfaced initially because after the first three of eight years that the company has now been in operation, the company in agreement with his neighbour, was renting a part of the neighbour’s yard that the bond was housed and had refused to comply with an additional $300,000 rent, opposed to the $100,000 rent that was imposed by the neighbour in the first outline in the previous agreement by both the company and his neighbour.However, the manager is contending that the fact that the bond is concealed and has been relocated to the right of the building, it does not pose any serious threat of both dust and noise pollution to his neighbour.Mr. Rakesh contends that the dust is minimal,NFL Jerseys From China, but he has been making great efforts to minimise the sound of the steel rods, in both his intake and distribution. He feels that the EPA is unjustified in its findings following the inspections.Mr. Rakesh is contending that if he has to bring a closure to his operation of his bond it would affect the general operations of the entire store. He stressed that 90 per cent of his business has been invested in hardware products.The other 10 per cent,Cheap Jerseys Free, he noted, would not be sufficient to garner enough profits, sufficient revenue to pay his large staff. He also noted that at present the store is in the process of taking in an additional $20 million in products to be shipped to the Coast.Mr. Rakesh is strongly contending that his store which lies in a commercial zone on the Coast is suitable for commercial activities and not industrial activities. He further noted that the company is a hardware entity and not an industrial entity.The manager stressed that ever since the business has been operating in the commercial area, no one else,Cheap Jerseys Free Shipping, except his neighbour seems to have a problem with his business and its routine operations.Efforts to contact EPA for a comment on this matter by this newspaper proved futile.
