Though its previous attempt to stop garbage from going into the sea using trash booms, implemented at a cost of Rs 1.17 crore, did not yield any results, the BMC is going to order nine new ones at a cost of Rs 48.5 crore. The booms come with a cleaning mechanism and maintenance for three years. The BMC administration claimed that the earlier experiment failed because the booms did not have a cleaning system.
