Anyone have any idea about tanneries on south border of prism? Is dha in negotiations about relocation? Waste from tanneries is highly toxic - surely dha should consider this?

Along this drain there are lots of factories on both sides & its an Industrial area. Factories are sitting here for decades. Highly unlikely that they will move, even Ring Road changed its map because of the factories.

Thanks waseem. But if dha gives them plots instead and/or lets them use as commercial wouldnt that be very attractive for both parties?

DHA must take early steps to relocate tanneries otherwise severe pollution crisis for residents will appear as it happens in HAZARIBAGH -Dhaka where chemical and fumes causes Asthma / Tuberculosis ,skin diseases and many lung diseases to people living around these polluted areas. Department of public health and safety should take early action against this menace to save specially children from dreadful effect of tannery pollutants.

Seeing the history of DHA, its unlikely that will take any steps ? I mean what they did to stop the stench of Rohi drain ? Sadly nothing ! In fact built some blocks of phase-2, 4 & 5 along it. More amazingly they built LGS & Beaconhouse Schools along it. The stench in this area is unbearable, i wonder how these schools are coping with it ! Also its hard to move an established business especially a factory which has a whole production set up.

But in phase 4 packages relocated factory and made mall - the economics have to make sense for these guys to do it also. But surely dha must be talking to them?? I would be surprised if they arent

The factories along Hudiara are long established. Some are of powerful houses like Nishat. I think DHA does not offer them very attractive deal that make them move. Packages is still at its place. DHA allots near to factory plots to civilians.
