Sand mining a major problem

Illegal sand mining has become major problem in the Northern Province. A shortage of sand is prevailing in the North as several construction projects are in progress. Due to this, the price of sand has shot up.

One tipper of sand which was purchased at Rs 17,000 during the pre-2009 period, now costs Rs 40,000, affected people said.

Sand is being continuously mined in Thoththavadi, Illupaikadavai, Koorai, Madu, Palampidy, Aruvaiyaaru and Kallaru in Mannar.

The additional District Secretary of Mannar said that the Department of Geology in Anuradhapura has issued permits to mine sand in these areas.

However, people have faced several problems when mining for commercial purposes in breach of conditions laid down in the permits.

Meanwhile, although no permits have been issued for sand mining on the Jaffna-Thenmarachchi- Kachchai beach, large scale sand mining is conducted during the night hours.

People have further expressed their concerns over sand mining to a depth lower than the Mean Sea Level, as the villages close by are facing a risk of sea erosion. It has been pointed out that the Government should intervene. (MT)
