MUMBAI: The BMC on Wednesday invited bids for a massive legacy waste remediation project at the Deonar dumping ground , with the estimated contract valued at over Rs 2,368 crore.
The scope of the project includes the bioremediation of 185 lakh tonnes of legacy waste, along with the disposal of excavated, processed, and segregated material. It also covers the reclamation of approximately 110 hectares of land at the Deonar site — one of Mumbai’s oldest solid waste dumping grounds.
The contract period is set for three years, which includes time for mobilisation and the monsoon period. Work will commence from the date of the letter of acceptance or the service order, whichever is earlier. This is among the largest tenders floated in recent years by the BMC for solid waste management.
The city’s pre-Independence era dumping ground at Deonar will be utilised for the Dharavi Redevelopment Project (DRP), with the BMC retaining only 136 acres of the 311-acre land parcel (126.30 hectares).
In October last year, the state cabinet approved a proposal to hand over a portion of the Deonar dumping ground to Dharavi Redevelopment Project Pvt Ltd — a joint venture led by Navbharat Mega Developers Pvt Ltd ( Adani Group ’s Special Purpose Vehicle) and the Maharashtra government.
