05.43 THE RECYCLING STRUCTURES
This section refers to the planned recycling structures
as a general system. For technical details on the recycling of the various
types of organic waste at household level please refer to to 6.27 Recycling structures.
A special fund is included in the budget to cover
the costs of setting up the recycling strucutures, which have priority. The
funds will be repaid by the beneficiaries in the same way as those made
available to the gypsum composite factories. They will take the form of
interest-free credits repayable according to the real possibilities of those
involved as decided during the organisational workshops during which the
structures are set up. The repayments will be financed by sale of materials
such as fertilisers and compost ourside the project area and by the
"exportation" of solid non-organic waste which are not recyclable
within the project area itself. For an illustration of a possible general
structure for the integrated recycling of waste in project areas refer to:
DRAWING OF
WASTE DISPOSAL STRUCTURES.
The work of the recycling structures will be carried
out within the local money LETS systems already set up. One of the more
interesting features of LETS systems is that, in contrast with what happens in
the western monetised economies, work considered as "dirty" and/or
"heavy" is usually better paid than "clean" and/or
"light" work as the rates charged will normally be related to the
perceived value of an hour's work in the forseeable normal working situation.
Usually at least two Moraisian workshops will be
held. Often, one workshop for each LETS loal money system.
Indicative participation (all workshops together)
The Moraisian trainers
A member of the project coordination team.
The general consultant.
At least one representative of the ONG Project New Horizons for Kiogoro.
Representative of the Finance Ministry
Representative of the Health Ministry
Representative of the Rural Development ministry
At least 5 observers (possible coordinators for future projects)
297 persons (male and female)indicated by the tank commissions, interested in
participating.
Duration of each workshop: about six weeks.
The Workshops will be expected to produce the
following structures:
a) Definition of the social form of the structures
- statutes
- rules
- professional and administrative structures
- financial aspects including relations with the Micro-credit institution
- relations with the local money LETS systems
b) Analysis of requirements
c) A structure for the recycling centres
- Definition of the land requirements and the physical structures necessary
- formalities and permits
- design of the centres
- construction of the centres
- purchase of the necessary equipment
d) A structure for the collection/deposition of
waste
- urine
- composted excreta
- waste water
- other organic waste
- non organic solids
- special industrial wastes
- medical wastes
- who will do what
- definition of individual zones
- definition of specialisations
e) A commercial structures
- definition of the tarrifs applicable to the various types of material
- distribution of urine and composted excreta
- direct recycling of certain materials
- contatcs for the exportation of materials not recyclable locally
f) A monitoring structure
- sanitary conditions
- ecological conditions
- safety conditions
g) A communications structure
- vertical, at project level (coordination team, centre managers, collection
structures, end users)
- horizontal, between centres
- relations with local money LETS systems
- commercial, radio, website
