This campaign is in cooperation with the General Cleanness Department of the Ministry of Municipality. The ministry will be carrying out comprehensive inspection tours on the many camping sites around Qatar to ensure that all wastes are removed. This comes as part of the ministry's effort to preserve Qatar's land from pollution.

The Ministry reminds all camp owners to adhere to the standards and guidelines set and remove all camping waste, tents, and materials from the campsites, stressing that legal action will be taken for violations.
