Singapore to issue haze prevention notices to three more firms in Indonesia over Kalimantan fires
This brings the total number of firms targeted under Singapore's Transboundary Haze Pollution Act (THPA) to 10.
Singapore plans to issue haze prevention notices to three additional Indonesian firms over Kalimantan fires, increasing the total targeted firms under the Transboundary Haze Pollution Act to ten. The National Environment Agency (NEA) stated on Monday that smoke from fires on concession lands belonging to PT Buana Megatama Jaya, PT Mananjung Hayak, and PT Baratama Putra Perkasa may have reached Singapore.
These companies will now be required to deploy firefighting personnel to extinguish or prevent fire spread on their owned or occupied land, cease any ongoing burning activities, refrain from initiating new fires, and submit action plans to NEA outlining measures to control and prevent future fires. NEA remains committed to enforcing actions against companies responsible for causing transboundary haze in Singapore.
