The National Business Support Network for Environmental Protection (Renaepa) has announced that it is ready to place local industrial waste on the Central American and Caribbean Industrial Waste Exchange (Bolsicca). Renaepa joined the exchange through the Central American Environment and Development Commission (CCAD) and the US Agency for International Development (USAID).

In an interview with Listin Diario, Renaepa president Roberto Herrera and executive director Maria Alicia Urbaneja said that the platform enables local industries to exchange their waste and purchase waste from other companies. This includes farm plastics, solvents, used oil, textiles, paper, cardboard, glass, computer equipment, used tires, metals and organic waste. The exchange operates in Honduras, Costa Rica, Panama, Nicaragua, Guatemala, Belize and El Salvador, and now in the DR. Urbaneja said that 20 Dominican companies have already signed on to take part.
