Guam - The Guam Environmental Protection Agency's board of directors are set for a regular meeting tomorrow followed by appeals for both Cyfred and Trashco. Cyfred proposed a pilot sewer system for sewerless Gil-Baza Subdivision, but was denied as the board was concerned that the property sits just above the island's northern aquifer, where we get more than 80-percent of our drinking water.

As for Trashco, it was last year the local trash hauler was issued a notice of violation for illegal dumping because they took the bins but left the trash at public health for being behind on their payment.

The meeting will take place at the Guam EPA's conference room in Tiyan at 4pm.
