Description of waste management in the project
area.
Non-organic
solid waste disposal (common rubbish recycling) is a major problem, especially
in (describe) areas. There, collection systems organised by ( the local
authorities) rarely work well if at all. The value of any rubbish collected is
"exported" for recycling elsewhere.
This
project includes establishing local organic and non-organic waste recycling
centres to add value to waste products. This saves (present expenditure on waste
collection, storage and disposal.).
Organic
waste is in principle handled at the lowest possible level, usually at household
level, where, in any case, faecal matter must be composted in eco-sanitation
systems for recycling at household level or for collection under the local money systems. Kitchen wastes are recycled at tank
commission level to feed chickens and, where culturally acceptable to the
population, pigs.
A
network of recycling centres will be set up under the local money system to
receive non-organic waste materials for recycling. The centres will also provide
a rubbish collection service where required.
Collection
of environmentally harmful rubbish will be paid for by the users. The collectors
may pay for useful materials under the local LETS systems. The idea is to keep
as much residual and recyclable value as possible within the local economy. The
local systems can also earn some formal currency to pay back their interest-free
micro-credit loan by exporting waste for industrial recycling that cannot be
recycled locally.
Standard
sanitation and waste removal services, where required, will also be supplied for
schools and clinics in the project area.
Specialised
waste removal from clinics will be discussed separately.
