EMA has suspended operations for Sunny Yi Feng Tiles Zimbabwe a Norton based tile manufacturer after the latter defied an order by the former to install emission sampling points, The Herald reports.
This was revealed by EMA spokesperson Ms Amkela Sidanke who said EMA ordered Sunny Yi Feng to halt all operation on or before 16 August 2020.
According to Sidanke, the tile manufacturer was on 5 August ordered to establish emission sampling points for a sampling exercise that would be facilitated by the agency scheduled for August 12:
However, on the date earmarked for the sampling exercise, the company failed to establish sampling points as had been requested by the agency and further to that, the boiler and furnace were switched off, making it technically impossible to do sampling, thus deliberately obstructing the course of justice.
Sunny Yi Feng Tiles is yet to comment on the developments.
