The final phase of the project Harithalokaya was successfully completed on the 13th of May, 2017 with the help of the Dehiwala- Mount Lavinia Municipal Council. On this day, a total of 335 bins were handed out to the residents of this coastal belt. The bins were given as a perk for the residents to encourage them to separate garbage and to properly dispose of them.
