1 Project Background
Waste disposal is one of the major problems being faced over the world and India is no
exception. Management of Solid Waste, though an essential service, is given low priority.
This, coupled with lack of financial resources, institutional weaknesses, improper choice of
technology & rapid urbanization, whose ramifications are more pronounced with
uncontrolled growth rate of population, has made this service far from satisfactory, thus
creating serious environmental and health problems.
The selection of a suitable SWM process is driven by the source and quality of waste
produced. Solid waste is generated from a number of sources which include households
(kitchen and yard), commercial areas (shops, hotels and restaurants), industries (raw
material and packaging), institutions (schools, hospitals and offices), construction and
demolition sites, wild and domesticated animals (carcasses of dead animals, manure), parks
(fallen branches, leaves from trees), and streets (sand, silt, clay, concrete, bricks, asphalt,
residues from air deposition, and dust).

Accumulation of solid waste in open areas is an eyesore, diminishing real estate and
property value, a breeding ground for insects, and other vectors (rats and mice, wild and
domesticated animals). It also causes odour nuisance, reflects the unorganized nature of the
community, and creates a poor environment for growing children.
Improper and unorganized disposal of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) in open areas and
landfills have a negative impact on the living conditions of human beings as well as the
overall environment. It results in spread of communicable and non-communicable diseases
among human beings and animals, thus affecting the welfare, livelihood, and economic
productivity. In addition, it causes contamination of soil, surface water, ground water and
generation of toxic and greenhouse gases. However, using adequate information, resources,
and efficient management practices, one can turn solid waste into a useful resource.
Management of Solid Wastes is of growing concern to the general public at large, local
authorities and business communities in cities and towns across India. The problem is
exacerbating in urban areas due to rapid strides in population growth, coupled with an
economic boom that encourages the consumption of goods and, hence, wastes generation.
As per Census 2011, the urban population accounts for 31.16 percent of the total Indian
population.
The Local Governing Bodies (LGBs), viz. municipalities and municipal corporations, are
responsible for providing SWM services in the urban areas. In most of the urban areas,
insufficient funds, use of obsolete/ inefficient technologies, lack of public
awareness/training, and improper infrastructure have resulted in a state of poor SWM.
In recent years, the Government of India has taken several initiatives to improve existing
SWM practices in the country. Some of the key initiatives and recommendations are
discussed below:
The Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission (JNNURM) is a notable initiative
undertaken by Government of India. JNNURM provides funding for urban infrastructure
development in 67 cities and towns of the country. This mission was initiated in 2006 and is
slated to continue until 2011.
The primary objective of this scheme is to improve the urban infrastructure in towns and
cities in a planned manner and to promote public–private partnership (PPP) in infrastructure
development. This scheme was introduced in the year 2005-06 and will continue for seven
years. This scheme is applicable to all cities/towns as per 2001 census, except the
cities/towns covered under the JNNURM. One of the components of this scheme is to renew
the old sewerage and solid waste disposal systems in inner (old) areas.
Swachh Bharat Mission (SBM) was launched on 2nd of October, 2014 with a vision to
achieve a clean India as a tribute to the father of the nation, Mahatma Gandhi, on his 150th
birth anniversary, in 2019. SBM is being implemented by the Ministry of Urban
Development (M/o UD) and by the Ministry of Drinking Water and Sanitation (M/o DWS) for
urban and rural areas with a given set of guidelines for improved sanitary services and
capacity building initiatives.
Municipal Solid Waste Management (MSWM) a major component of the SBM (urban)-
“refers to a systematic process that comprises of waste segregation and storage at source,
primary collection, secondary storage, transportation, secondary segregation, resource
recovery, processing, treatment, and final disposal of solid waste.”
Under the provisions of SWM, the local bodies are to prepare Detailed Project Reports in
consultation with the state government based on the identified needs of the City Sanitation
Plans. Provision also mentions clustering of smaller cities for attracting Private investment.
The DPRs should be prepared in lines with Govt. of India’s goals outlined in the NUSP 2008,
SWM rules, advisories, CPHEEO manuals (including cost recovery mechanisms), O&M
practices and Service-level Benchmark advisories released by M/o UD and Manual on
Municipal Solid Waste Management, 2016.
States will contribute a minimum of 25% funds for SWM projects to match 75% Central
Share (10% in the case of North East States and special category states). 80% of the urban
population to be covered by SWM services (allowing for a 2% increase year on year)
covering all statutory towns. 1 Central government Grant / VGF may also be used to
promote projects of waste to energy.
Constituted by the President of India, under Article 280 of the constitution, the Finance
The 13th Finance Commission has recommended two categories of Grants to Local Bodies
namely (1) General Basic Grant and (2) General Performance Grant. The Basic Grants will be
released on furnishing the U.Cs for the last releases and the General Performance Grant will
Further, in 2009, MoUD initiated Service Level Benchmarking (SLB) with respect to basic
municipal services including solid waste management. SLB has been introduced in 30 states
and across 1700 ULBs. Performance-related funds under the 13th Finance Commission have
been linked to improvements in SLBs including SWM. The 13th Finance Commission also
recommends that of all grants to be given to the ULBs, 50% should be for SWM (2010-
2015). Moreover, the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy has funded five Waste-to-
Energy plants for utilization of MSW. The grant recommended to ULBs in Andhra Pradesh is
Rs. 1919.20 crores for the XIII FC period of 2010- 2015. Under such grant every local body is
mandated preparing an Annual Development Plan where in the component integrated solid
waste management under PPP mode (excluding purchase of equipment for collection and
transport of garbage) is to be incorporated.
CPCB has framed and notified the “Action Plan for Management of Municipal Solid Waste
(MSW)” in compliance with the National Green Tribunal order dated 5th Feb-2015 in the
matter of OA No. 199 of 2014. The Action Plan emphasizes on strengthening the planning
exercise at national, state as well as city level by improvising through the waste
management value chain. In addition to that, The Plan suggested the concept of regional
cluster approach as well as technology options on the basis of quantum of MSW generation
which has been re-produced below in nutshell.
However, alternate options can be worked out for smaller local bodies. Common facility
should be ‘integrated’ with facilities for sorting, compost, RDF and energy plant and
followed by inert recycling/re-use. Only a fraction of inert waste should go for land-filling.
The Action Plan has outlined indicative plan based on the quantum of waste generated in
the cluster. The indicative plans have been given for towns in four ranges of waste
generation.

There is a need to enhance the existing MSWM system for Town Municipal Council (TMC)
and thus improve the health and living standards of its residents. The purpose of this project
is to identify the existing MSWM practices within the town, recognize deficiencies/gaps in
the present system and propose a comprehensive plan for MSWM including segregation,
collection, and transportation and regional/cluster approach for processing & scientific
disposal in Integrated Municipal Solid Waste Management Facility in compliance with the
MSW Rules 2016. In addition, analyze options for waste processing for effective and
scientific management of MSW generated.
The Sankeshwar Town Municipal Council (TMC) is looking for improving efficiencies in solid
waste management (SWM) practices focusing on improving efficiency of collection,
transportation and processing of the municipal waste generated in the city. This report
brings out the present situation of solid waste management at Sankeshwar and the
proposals to improve the same.
The project activity aims at

The Elected wing is represented by the General Body (GB) constituted by 23 elected
members. Apart from General body there are 5 Nominated Councilors. There committees
are formulated to address matters related to Administration / provision of civic services in
most appropriate manner.
A detailed estimate of the MSW generation has been carried out with a sample survey. Actual
waste generation by each category of waste generators is calculated for consecutive 3 days.
Based on the average waste generation by each category total waste generation is estimated.
Sample are selected from each category of waste generators such as households, commercial
shops, hospital and clinics, worship, institutions, markets, meat/chicken shops, hotels and
restaurants and Street Sweeping. The following table shows number of sources and the average
waste generated in each source based on the waste estimation.
number of waste generators in the city, data like ward wise population, slum and non slum
households and street lengths of all type of roads were obtained from secondary sources.
Households are taken from the census, street length from the TMC. Major markets were
individually assessed by the survey team.
In the present year 2017 estimated population of the Sankeshwar city is 36,942. Considering
the Solid Waste generation at the rate of 350 gm per capita per day the total waste
generated is 12.93 MT/day. The normative waste generation is at higher side and it is
considered for future projections.
For the Proposed Detailed Project Report, it is necessary that future population growth and
their requirements are estimated to understand the gaps and shortfall in meeting various
requirements.
The planning horizon of 5 years (till 2022) has been considered and population projections
have been made for the 25 years. Three methods; Arithmetic Method, Incremental method
and Geometric Progression method have been used to project the population for
Sankeshwar and the projected figures are given below.
The history of Sankeshwar indicates moderate population growth trends in the past. It is
assumed that the growth trends may continue in future and stabilize with the district
average. Incremental Increase gives a negative trend due to negative growth recorded
during 2001-2011. Geometric method gives a prolonged period of high growth rate in the
future years. Hence an average of incremental & geometric method is considered.
The Population projection is presented in Table below. It is expected that total population of
the city will be 40793 in the year 2027 and population will be 46628 in the year 2042.

The present waste generation will grow from 12.93 TPD to 13.60 TPD in the next 5 years.
The estimated projections for the MSW for 25 years at the rate of 350 gm per capita per day
are presented in the table below.
Door to Door Primary Collection of waste started by ULB in all 23 Wards- Vehicles &
Equipments Purchased- Primary Collection is being done in 2-4 shifts to improve the
collection efficiency with available vehicles. Collection is done by SHG & TMC. Door to door
primary collection of waste is in practice from 4891 households in the town. To get
maximum primary collection efficiency, door to door collection is being done in 2 shifts from
morning 0600 hrs to 1400 hrs and 1600 hrs to 1800 hrs. Drivers and assistants required on
these vehicles are outsourced. Segregated waste collected from Door to door collection is
directly transported to the dump site.
Due to efficient implementation of Door to door collection the requirement of bins in the
city is grossly reduced and community bins are provided at public and market places and
where HH collection is not possible to avoid littering of waste along road and public places.
Bio medical waste generated by Hospitals and clinics is separately collected by a Belgavi
based bio Medical Waste Collection Agency. It caters to all the healthcare establishments of
the city and independently handles the process of collection, transportation, treatment and
disposal of healthcare waste from medical establishments.
In Sankeshwar there are a small number of restaurants and hotels with lodging facilities.
Most of the hotels and restaurants are located near in the main city. The quantity of waste
generated is relatively small but dispersed. The waste is collected daily by TMC.
Construction and demolition waste mostly consist of inert and non biodegradable material
such as concrete, plaster, metal, wood etc. These wastes are heavy, having high density
often bulky and occupy considerable storage space either on the road or communal waste
bin/container. Construction waste was sent to low lying area in out skirt of city.
Transportation of the solid waste generated in the city is being managed by TMC. Primary
transportation refers to transporting of waste generated from waste generators to the
waste storage depot. Primary transportation of waste is practiced Through Ghanta gadi in
Sankeshwar. There are some intermediate storage depots in Sankeshwar i.e. 3-4 container
bins.
Secondary transportation refers to collection of waste from intermediate storage points like
bins and open points to disposal unit. TMC is presently managing the secondary
transportation with its vehicles. Tractor trailers and Dumper placer are used as secondary
transportation vehicles.
The following are the vehicle squad available with Sankeshwar Town Municipal Council for
secondary transport of the MSW.
Collectively the Sankeshwar Town Municipal Council transports 7.5 TPD of Municipal Solid
Waste. The solid waste dumping site located 6 km away from the Municipal office of
Sankeshwar. To estimate the quantity of waste disposed in the land fill site, a survey of all
the vehicles reaching the dumping site was undertaken for 2 days from 23 Nov to 24 Nov
2015. All the MSW collected and transported from the city is bought and disposed in the
land fill site located at Sr. No. 428. The land is about 6 km away from the city. The
consolidate data is presented in table below.
Based on the study conducted it is noted that Sankeshwar Town waste disposal site receives
an average quantity of waste at about 7.5 tons /day. There is 1 Auto tippers which collected
HH waste. Dumper Placer is used for clearing the waste stored in compactor bins.
Tractor trailers collect and transport wastes from HH and open points and open drainages in
the city. The waste transported in tractor trailers contain more of silt and ash content which
increases ash content. Tractors also collect and dispose street sweeping waste in many
streets.
Collection and transportation of waste in Sankeshwar town happen from morning 6.00
onwards and continue till 2.00 PM in the afternoon. And continue from 4.00PM to 6.00 PM
in the evening.
The Safai Karmachari starts Street sweeping activity at 6 in the morning. The waste collected
kept is collected in Push Cart and dumped in the container nearby. The same karmacharis
have an added responsibility to clean the open drains in their allotted area. The silt removed
from the drain is kept on the road which is collected by the Auto Tipper.
Tractor placer in the city starts operating at 6.00 AM every day. The tractor placer collects
waste filled container and empties at the land fill site. The placer operations end at around 2
PM in the afternoon.
Tractor trailers and Ghanta Gadi start their operation at 6 AM every day. Tractors arrive late
to landfill site as they collect waste from HH and drainages which have to be manually
uploaded to tractors.
The total area of the city is 7.15 sq. Km and total road length 73.15 kms. As per calculations
by AIILSG Total road is 73.15 km.
Significant amount of waste is disposed on the streets. Most of the main streets consist of
waste materials like plastic covers, paper waste etc. The Sweeping staffs are provided long
hand brooms, metal plates and wheel barrows. The street sweeping staffs are not provided
with, gloves, masks, sweeping carts, gumboots and metal trays. None of the workers wear
jackets or mask to cover themselves from dust while sweeping. Sweepers use their hands
and brooms to collect waste from waste heaps and put into plastic bags. Sweepers in some
areas have been provided with metal plates and pushcarts.
The landfill is located at a distance of about 6 kms from the city center. The total area of the
landfill site is about 7.26 Acre. The landfill site is fenced on all sides. There is facility for a
watchman’s room. TMC has not deployed any trip entry recorders for the trips of each
vehicle on all days. The disposal site is not being provided with a 24 hour watch man and
weighing bridge. The waste brought to the depot by dumper placers and tractors is dumped
inside. The waste heaps are not covered with inert material.
The composition of the waste becomes crucial to decide an efficient SWM system. To
understand the waste character disposed in the land fill in Sankeshwar, An analysis of the
composition of the fresh waste was conducted for 2 days. 4 samples were selected and
analyzed for 2 consecutive days by using the quartering technique.
40 kg of fresh waste was selected randomly by the waste carrying vehicles for conducting
the quartering technique. About 10 kg of waste from the selected 40 kg of waste was
selected for conducting waste composition analysis. The selected 10 kg sample was
segregated with the help of rag pickers and each segregated material is weighed.
The analysis shows an organic content in the waste is 43 %, 19.85% recyclable materials,
30.65% of silt and stones and miscellaneous items of 10%. The quantity of silt and stone is
high because of collection of waste from roads while sweeping.
The particulars of waste composition and analysis conducted are presented below based on
the analysis conducted at the landfill. The table below gives the average waste composition
of selected samples.

The analysis of the preliminary information collected of Sankeshwar town, highlights certain
good measures and systems adopted by the town and certain areas that require
improvement and infrastructure development. Door to door waste collection is undertaken
in most parts of the city. The town has made provision for adequate landfill site and has
constructed a vermicomposting facility.
Public awareness: Waste generation is increasing in urban areas as the use of packaged
consumer goods is increasing. The impacts of inefficient solid waste management are
directly related to public health. It is thus very essential that the citizens of the town be
equal partners with the city administration to reduce the problem of waste. Public
participation is thus the cornerstone in a successful solid waste management plan. Public
participation is essential in the following activities.
Generating public awareness on these issues and garnering public participation for an
effective solid waste management in the city requires a sustained approach and efforts by
the administration and the elected representatives.
Collection of waste: Collection from all the waste generators has to be at door step in each
of the existing 23 wards. This would include residential, commercial and institutional
facilities.
Door to door collection of waste will reduce the burden of secondary collection system due
to reduced number of open points. The MSW from markets and other common places
would be collected through sweeping teams. The waste collected from door to door system
and by the sweeping teams deployed for market areas and other public spaces will be
disposed in the landfill. Roads sweeping and drain cleaning would be a separate waste flow
from collection to disposal.
It is proposed to provide two bins for wet waste & dry waste at household level in order to
get segregated waste at source.
F IGURE 5-1: T WO (2) - BIN SYSTEM FOR DRY AND WET WASTE
Collection of segregated municipal waste from the source of
its generation is an essential step in solid waste management.
Inefficient waste collection service has an impact on public
health and aesthetics of towns and cities. Collection of wet
and dry waste separately enhances the potential of cost
effective treatment of such wastes and of deriving optimum
advantage from the recyclable material fed into the system.
2 differently coloured bins, 10-15 litres each per household
are recommended to promote and ensure segregation:
• Covered Green Bin: Wet waste
• Covered Blue Bin: Dry Waste
The proposed concept requires establishing primary waste collection and transportation
system. This would result in reduced burden of solid waste management on secondary
transportation and will reduce the number of open points in the city. Resource recovery is a
significant component of the new proposal. Dry waste collection centre would be set up as
per design requirements. It is also proposed to integrate the informal and recycling sector
involving rag pickers and kabadiwalas prevalent in Sankeshwar into the formal system by
recognizing their work and by providing required support services.
The involvement of the informal sector is also to be examined and integrated into the waste
management system of the city. The informal sector in any city comprises of two systems i.e. the
kabadi system or the rag pickers.
The informal “kabadi system” network forms an important link in the overall waste recycling system
prevalent in the country. They can be compared to micro-entrepreneurs who buy reusable and
recyclable material like newspapers, metal, glass, cardboards, plastics, etc. from households or
commercial areas. Citizens should be encouraged to continue the practice of selling recyclable
wastes to the “kabadi system”, as they constitute the first link in the waste recycling system.
Rag pickers are also an important part of the informal recycling system and are instrumental in
recovering discarded recyclables in disposed municipal waste that have not been bought by the
kabadi system. In an ideal system, rag pickers should be integrated into the system by training and
employing them for door-to-door collection of waste by the RWA’s, NGOs, CBOs and the like. The
rag pickers who work as waste collectors should be allowed to collect recyclables separately
alongside wet and dry fractions.
Rag pickers may also be encouraged to form cooperatives, through the involvement of local
NGOs/Self-Help Groups (SHGs) and may be allowed to collect recyclables from households. Such
initiatives will not only ensure a higher level of income to rag pickers, but will also ensure hygienic
conditions for rag pickers and environmentally safe waste recycling practices. Also, a lot of rag
pickers are usually harassed by the police, property owners, shop keepers in the vicinity. Many of
them have to justify their work to various people and are condemned by society. Many of them are
in fact women, who have to live with the insecurity of harassment and threat to their livelihood.
Organizing them into cooperatives tend to protect their rights thereby retaining their dignity of
labour, work, their right to livelihood and right to access recyclables.
ULBs should make concerted efforts to integrate the informal sector of rag pickers into regular waste
collection operations through the private sector, NGOs, RWAs etc.
Transportation of waste:
The transportation of the waste will be classified into primary and secondary transportation.
The primary transportation vehicles will be auto tippers, push carts and 4 wheeled
vehicles involved in door to door collection. These primary transportation vehicles
will collect the waste from the generators on a daily basis and dispose the waste at
processing site.
The segregated wet waste would be directly transferred by twin compartment Auto
tipper to processing facility on landfill site. The waste from the pushcarts shall be
deposited in to the auto tipper assigned in the respective zones
The secondary transportation of waste from road sweeping and drainage cleaning
will be done by tractor trailers. Tractor trailers will be used to transport drainage
waste and construction and demolition debris.
The manual streets cleaning are suggested. However manual street cleaning is preferred in narrow,
congested streets and in streets where the road carpeting is damaged.
Disposal of Waste:
The final disposal of the waste has to be through a sanitary landfill site, after removal of the
recyclable and biodegradable waste. This need to be processed separately and only inert
and non biodegradable waste should be taken to the landfill site. The handling of waste and
the landfill site has to be scientific to avoid accidents.
The municipal wastes generated in the city will be collected using the following different types of collection systems as follows
No waste should be thrown on the streets, footpaths, open spaces, drains or water bodies,
nallas etc. Waste should be stored at source of waste generation in three bins/ bags, one for
food waste/ bio-degradable waste, another for recyclable waste such as papers, plastic,
metal, glass, rags etc, and the third one for wastes such as batteries , containers for
chemical plastics pesticides, discarded medicines and other toxic or hazardous household
waste.
The TMC has recently conducted many IEC campaigns to achieve waste segregation at
source. The local body may draw up a program of conducting awareness campaign in
various wards of the town utilizing the ward committees, local NGO’s and resident welfare
association. Detailed IEC programme is provided in the annexure. The waste segregated at
source is a resource itself. Segregating waste at source is not an option but our
responsibility.

DETAILED PROJECT REPORT OF MUNICIPAL SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT
The collected waste will be disposed by these vehicles into the landfill site directly. There is
no provision of Secondary Storage proposed. The containers bins used for secondary
storage are not viable or inefficient SWM system.
The collected waste will be disposed by these vehicles to the land fill site for disposal.
Door to door collection of waste would be introduced for collection of waste from
residential and commercial waste generators in Sankeshwar. Sankeshwar Town Municipal
Council would be responsible for conducting door to door collection operations. The TMC
shall provide the man power, vehicles and equipments required for the door to door
collection mechanism.
The residents and other waste generators are expected to store the waste and hand over
the waste to the door to door waste collection staff. TMC should insist the waste generators
to dispose the waste only through door to door step mechanism and avoid throwing the
waste into open points and drainages. The door to door waste collection staff would collect
the waste each and every day including national holidays and Sundays.
TMC should make it mandatory to waste generator that waste need to be segregated at
source. Also it has been advised to procure 3 Plastic bins at waste generator, so that waste
can be stored separately. The segregated dry waste and wet waste will be collected by Twin
Compartment Auto Tipper. Auto Tipper or Ghantagadi will carry this waste to Dry Waste
collection centers to deposit dry waste separately and wet waste will be carried to Landfill
site for further processing and disposal. The dry waste or Recyclable material can be
collected at regular intervals as may be convenient to the waste producer and the TMC.

Conducting street sweeping operations, cleaning and removal of waste from public places,
office areas, administrative areas, markets, parks and other general places are considered
for collection of waste using sweeping mechanism. The street sweeping staff would clean
these areas regularly considering the quantity of waste generated in these generators. The
requirement of Push Carts and Tractor for the street sweeping are explained in the section
below. The sweepers should be compulsorily given safety equipments. The table below gives

The Bulk Waste generators which generate more waste will be cleaned daily. Separate Auti
Tippers required to be deployed for waste collection from Veg Market, Marriage Halls and
Hotels.
The ULB should collect all the slaughterhouse waste directly from the Generators and
disposed to the processing site in the windrows for aerobic composting. An alternative
method which can be used is that the Ulb shall treat the slaughter waste in RCC compost
pits of adequate size using bioculture. Good quality manure is produced in 6-8 weeks.
Leachate from the slaughter waste compost pit is collected and treated in a RCC tank and
the treated leachate may be used for spraying on windrows.
Currently Biomedical waste collection, transportation & Disposal are done by Bio Medical
Waste Collection Agency. It is proposed that this system should be continued in the future
as well.
Dry waste collection centers are the decentralized units dedicated for collection of in
organic/ dry waste in the urban cities. The TMC can generate revenue by conducting this
operation.
The dry waste collection centers would function as a social enterprise. The collection
centers would buy the recoverable from the waste generators and sell it to the whole sale
scrap dealers. The additional monetary benefits would be used for O & M of the facility.
The TMC should insist on the private parties that the dry waste collection centers should be
set up and operated.
Dry waste includes materials such as paper, plastic, glass, wire, cloth, leather, wire,
thermocol, metal, wood, rubber, rexine and fabric.
Households will need to encourage separately store dry waste at their premises. The TMC
would collect dry waste from their homes. Once a week, collection vehicle will separately
collect dry waste from homes, which will then be taken to Dry Waste Collection Centers
(DWCCs). Citizens on their own could also take their dry waste directly to DWCS. This waste
will be segregated into different types of dry waste and then sold to recyclers.
However, this will only works if the dry waste is free of any wet or food waste. People will
have to separately store the dry waste in their homes and if it is mixed with wet waste it will
only cause problems to them. The Pourkarmikas will not collect mixed waste from the
citizens and dry waste will be collected using separate collection vehicles, once a week.
Reduction of waste is also possible by setting up purchase / processing centers for dry
waste, like plastics, paper, etc. Dry waste collection center shall be set up by TMC in all the
wards
Dry waste–shall be stored and delivered to the dry waste collection vehicle which shall be
provided by TMC or to the licensed DWCC set up on municipal / Government / private lands.
NGO’s, RWA’s, SHGs, collectives. Institutions, Trusts, Universities, Companies, licensed
recyclers or scrap dealers may be appointed as the sole Licensed Agents of TMC for
maintaining dry waste collection centers and /or operating such dry waste sorting centers.
SHG’s/Waste pickers need to be identified and encouraged to come forward to maintain the
DWCC. Such centre’s would ensure that the recyclable material is sold through properly
created channels to ensure that the recycled goods are not misused. According to dry waste
the DWCC shall pay the Pourkarmika /Waste-picker or any individual who bring the waste to
the centres as notified by TMC from time to time, this will encourage the public to segregate
the waste at source.
DWCC shall perform secondary and tertiary sorting of the waste, DWCC before finally selling
it to recycling centre’s. Collecting in bulk provides these informal sector workers with larger
returns, and creates more jobs. They aim to keep as much waste out of the landfills/ waste
dumps as possible and to help make waste useful and profitable. In the process they also
educate people about the importance of segregation, and provide safe and hygienic work
conditions to waste management workers.
These DWCC will further segregate the dry waste collected and sell them in recycling
market. The plastic waste is reused/recycled for manufacturing various products.
For Collection of E – Waste – E-waste should be collected and transported to the DWCCs
which shall have separate containers for this waste.
As per the guidelines of hazardous waste management division of Central Pollution Control
Board, there is a need to encourage recycling of all useful and valuable material from e-
waste so as to conserve the ever depleting natural resources.
Construction and demolition waste has been defined as ‘waste which arises from
construction, renovation and demolition activities. Also included within the definition are
surplus and damaged products and materials arising in the course of construction work or
used temporarily during the course of on-site activities. The various streams of wastes to be
considered will include; Excavated materials, Concrete, Tiles, brick, ceramics, asphalt
concrete, Plaster, Glass, Metal and steel, Plastics, Wood, asphalt, and Concrete rubbles, etc.
It is mandatory that every waste generator shall keep the construction and demolition
waste within the premise or get the waste deposited at collection centre so made by the
local body or handover it to the authorized processing facilities of construction and
demolition waste; and ensure that there is no littering or deposition of construction and
demolition waste so as to prevent obstruction to the traffic or the public or drains. Currently
Town Municipal council is dumping all C & D waste into a designated area at Bhimnagar
quarry.
It is proposed that the ULB should begin zero waste practices in 2 wards during the DPR time
frame, and this area should be widened and broadened in a phase-wise manner in the
coming years. The process to achieve the same is explained in the following flow chart.
By definition, zero waste management begins at source, namely by segregating waste
generated into three main categories. These categories are broadly as follows –
1. Wet Waste
2. Dry Waste
3. Inert Waste
Segregated waste will be collected at source in the designated zero waste ward. The wet
waste will be composted using aerobic composting or vermicomposting as prime methods
or will be deposited in a biogas plant within the ward. The byproducts (compost and/or
biogas) produced after processing of the wet waste will be used for gardening and
plantations within the same wards. Biogas/biomethanation plants of small scale (500kg)
shall be sufficient for each ward. The dry waste produced within the same designated
ward(s) shall be collected by dedicated rag pickers and shall be bailed or sold to scrap
dealers. 2-3 rag pickers are proposed at each ward level for this purpose. Plastic and tetra
packs shall be bailed and the remainder along with metal and paper shall be sold as
recyclables. The quotations provided by a few scrap dealers are attached in the annexure for
further reference. The inert waste or C&D waste generated shall be deposited to low lying
areas and shall be used as filling material in construction of roads (within the wards).
IEC and Public awareness activities play a huge role in the achievement of zero waste
management. The ULB shall employ campaigns, rallies, and leaflet and pamphlet
distribution within the designated ward to educate the common man about the advantages
of zero waste management. Motivational activities should be conducted to promote the
same. Elaborate details for conducting IEC campaigns are given in Chapter 8.9 IEC and Public
Awareness.
The moisture content in Indian waste is high due to the high food and other organic content
in waste. In Sankeshwar if the silt wastes are removed from the waste stream the organic
matter is about 40-50%. Such high moisture contents lead to low calorific value on as
received basis. Thermal processing is difficult and would require energy addition. Further as
mixed wastes are received there is always a threat of combusting plastics which can lead to
dioxins and furans release. It is recommended that no thermal processing technologies be
adopted in Sankeshwar.
Compost, vermicompost and Biomethanation plants are working successfully in many places
in India. These technologies recover the organic matter and make them into compost which
is a good soil conditioner and useful for soil management. Biomethanation has many useful
by-products like biogas, compost and potential use of the liquid as pest repellent etc. From
the agrarian environment of Sankeshwar the adoption of organic recovery solutions like
composting and vermicompost are the preferred options. We do not recommend
biomethanation at present as segregation is a primary requirement for successful operation
of biomethanation plants and this is not yet in practice. The Physical processing
technologies are useful to recover some of the non organic matter and should be integrated
into the main technology solution linked to organic waste recovery through composting.
The integrated waste management facility would consist of waste receipt and segregation
facility, composting, vermicomposting, plastic recycling, brick making and landfill. The
material flow for the integrated waste management facility for Sankeshwar is given below.
Composting is a form of recycling. Like other recycling effort, the composting of municipal
solid waste can help decrease the amount of solid waste that must be sent to a landfill
thereby reducing disposal costs. Composting also yields a valuable product that can be used
by farmers, landscapers, horticulturists, government agencies and property owners as a soil
amendment or mulch. The compost product improves the condition of soil, reduces erosion
and helps suppress plant diseases.
Composting is an age old practice and the word compost is as old as agriculture itself. The
solid wastes of plant and animal origin are utilized for conservation of carbon and
mineralization.

The contraries that are non-degradable materials like plastics, metals, glass, rubber and
other inert materials are easily separated in four stages of screening. The sieving operations
eliminates bits, sticks, gravels, metals and glass pieces making the end product highly
uniform in size and quality.
Use of inoculum like consortium of degrading micro organisms / cow dung solution has been
recommended mainly to reduce period of decomposition to around 40 to 45 days and also
to prevent foul smell and leachate generation.
6.4.6 DG set
A 60 kv DG set is proposed as an alternative power.
A tractor trailer shall be used for internal transport of waste in the landfill site. A backhoe
loader is proposed to be used for turning of waste in the windrows. TMC already have JCB at
landfill site.
Rainwater harvesting is accumulation & deposition of rainwater for reuse on-site, rather
than allowing it to run off. Rainwater is collected from roofs, and in many places the water
collected is redirected to a deep pit (well, shaft, or borehole), a reservoir with percolation.
This water can be used for watering plants, vehicle cleaning etc. The harvested water can
also be used as drinking water, longer-term storage and for other purposes such as
groundwater recharge.
For Construction of Rainwater Harvesting Project, which would carry rainwater runoff from
rooftops & along the roof lining, buildings for Office and commercial sectors needs specific
requirements as stated below.
• Maximum roof coverage area should be considered, which includes monsoon shade,
machine shade and vermicomposting shades and any other temporary or extended
shades which are along the office building.
• Pipelines carry the water to the recharge pits provided inside the premises.
• Every recharge pit is measuring of 4 x 3 x 3 cum.
6.4.9.1 R E C H A R GE P I T B U I LD I N G
• Dig a pit 4m wide near the office or structure till you reach the water level.
• Dig one more meter deep and put a layer of charcoal and 1/2 meters of river sand
which acts as a strainer. If required, use an iron sheet all around the pit to keep the pit
from collapsing. Remove the sheet after you put charcoal and one and half meters of
river sand.
• Connect one pipe to the DOWNPIPE that comes from the roof.
• A strainer at the top will keep leaves and other wastes from going down along with the
rainwater.
• Rainwater displaces the dense hard water underground. If water comes up to the
surface, put half a meter of ordinary sand on top of river sand. This will prevent the
water from overflowing. Once a week, pour bleaching powder solution through the pipe
on the roof. This will cleanse the pipe thoroughly on regular basis.
6.4.9.2 M A I N TE NA NC E OF R E C H A R GE P I T
The Recharge Pits have to be cleaned regularly as it would have clogged with run-off sand,
mud, leaves etc. Clean the recharge pit once a year. Dig out the filler material. And fill it
once again with clean materials.
The detailed drawings of the processing and disposal facilities have been provided in
annexure. The design details are provided for each of the facility below.
The waste arriving at the integrated waste management facility should be weighed at the
gate and data recorded. The vehicles arriving are smart segregated. Waste from the markets
and segregated wet waste is sent to the vermicomposting facility (already present at
Sankeshwar of 2 TPD capacity). The balance of the materials will be taken to the windrow
platform and tipped, which is followed by aerobic composting process.
Aerobic Composting is used for stabilizing organic matter. Composting can be used for
mixed wastes and results in production of stable product- compost which depending upon
its quality can be used as soil conditioner or potting medium. In this section the detailed
design and technical specifications of the compost facility are discussed.
The various parameters that affect the composting process and the compost quality are
organism’s population, carbon Nitrogen ratio, temperature, aeration and moisture. The
above-mentioned controlling parameters need to be monitored in the industrial scale plant.
In large composting operations it is necessary to monitor the wastewater, which comes out
of the organic waste, called leachate. The production of this leachate has to be minimized
and whatever leachate is generated has to be collected and reused for maintaining the
moisture content of the heap and as an inoculum.
Design choices
There are many alternative approaches, which have been adopted for composting of
municipal solid wastes based on the broad principle of aerobic composting. The following
approach has been adopted for Athani.
The waste as received is pre-sorted. The waste is formed into windrows and aerated. Roof is
proposed for the composting yard. The design is based on a 35-day waste composting cycle
with 15-day additional provision in concrete yard for additional waste load and for
management during monsoons.
Sizing of plant
The composting plant has been grouped into 3 parts. The inertising part, which is the basic
composting process consisting of the wastes windrowing process including aeration so that
a stabilized material is produced. The second part is the compost segregation plant also
called the processing facility where the stabilized wastes are segregated into compost and
rejects and finally maturation and storage part.
The proposed type of waste processing facility is Windrow Composting system. Turning of
windrows is to be done using front end loader with backhoe. The step-by step process
operations are given below. The various aspects, which come into play at each of the steps,
are also given.
Step 1: The waste is transferred from segregation facility to the aerobic composting yard.
Step 2: The segregated waste is sent to the windrow platform. The windrow is then sprayed
with bio culture slurry.
Step 3: The windrow is maintained for 7 days. The temperature is monitored to ensure that
the composting process is ongoing. The leachate from the windrow comes out and is
collected in the drain. The drain is connected to the leachate tank. The leachate from
leachate tank is used for making the inoculum slurry.
Step 4: At 7 days from start the first windrow is reorganized. The waste volume would have
reduced by 15% compared to start with moisture reduction and degradation. While re-
forming the windrow addition of inoculums slurry and water to maintain the moisture is
done using the trailer mounted slurry tank. The temperature profile in the second windrow
is monitored. The leachate from the windrow may come out and is collected in the drain.
Step 5: At 14 days from start the second windrow is reorganized. The waste volume would
have reduced by about 15% compared to start of windrow 2 with moisture reduction and
degradation. The balance of the waste is reformed into the third windrow. Addition of water
is undertaken if required. The temperature profile in the third windrow is monitored. No
leachate is expected from now on.
Step 6: At 21 days from start the third windrow is reorganized. The waste volume would
have reduced by about 15% compared to start of windrow 3. The wastes are reformed into
the fourth windrow. Addition of water is undertaken if required. The temperature profile in
the fourth windrow is monitored.
Step 7: At 28 days from start the fourth windrow is reorganized. The waste volume would
have reduced by about 5% compared to start of windrow 4. The wastes are reformed into
the fifth windrow. Addition of water is undertaken if required. The temperature profile in
the fifth windrow is monitored. This is the maturing stage of the compost.
Step 8: At 35 days the waste is now composted and it is transferred to the processing line
initial hopper.
Step 9: The aerobic composting waste is fed into the trommel in the processing line. It is
transferred to the conveyor, which lifts it into the first rotary sieve. The rotary sieve has 35
mm punched holes.
The waste not passing through the sieve is the reject, which is then transferred using the
belt conveyor to the reject platform. The material passing is then transferred to the second
rotary sieve using belt conveyors. The second sieve has 14 mm holes. A third sieve of 4 mm
punched holes is also provided for fine composting, to be sold as Grade I compost. The
materials not passing through the sieve is transferred out using a chute. The materials
passing through the sieve is transferred using a chute to a heap. The compost at the heap is
further processed with admixtures or directly bagged for sale.
The material of size between 35 mm and 14 mm is sold as grade II compost and the
materials less than 4 mm is grade I compost. Additional products with different admixtures
are made and sold as niche products. The present design does not provide the mixing and
grinding facility for compost upgradation, as this would depend on marketing plans. Space
for provision of these facilities is provided. Bagging is proposed manually.
Step 10: Materials recovery from the rejects is undertaken and the recyclables are stored in
the recyclables shed.
The reject are taken out for disposal in landfill daily. The recyclables are sold when adequate
quantity is available for transport. The compost is sold as per demand.

The mostly organic waste arriving at the facility is directed to the vermicomposting
decomposing yard. The waste is windrowed for a period of 15-20 days to undergo partial
decomposition. The vermi composting process starts with partially decomposed waste. A
separate covered shed with 2 TPD capacities is already present at the site.
The earthworms eat the partially decomposed waste and produce casting. The casting of the
worms is the vermicompost. The degradation process in vermi composting takes places
inside the worm body by microorganisms. The selection of worms to obtain the best yield
per worm is available. The crux in this process is to get the worms to survive. The conditions
for survival of the worms have to be maintained in terms of the food availability, food
quality, moisture content and safety from predators. Another important aspect is that the
vermi castings have to be routinely removed. The whole vermi composting operation has to
be done manually and require more care and effort. In terms of the infrastructure
requirement the vermi composting takes off from the aerobic composting and simple
covered sheds are adequate.
7 Design of Landfill
The construction of landfill facility for all the cells shall be as per the specification and
drawings. Design of each cell of landfill facility is decided as per the topographical conditions
of the site area, subsequently development should be in same sequence. The Design
Fundamentals of Sanitary Landfill site is presented in the table below.
Since this land fill site is non-operational since last 5 years, it is apparent that most of the
degradable waste must have degraded till now. Hence for the treatment of remaining waste
Method of ‘Bio-augmentation’ will be best suited.

Existing New
Dumping Site Sanitary Landfill Site
Process of Bio-augmentation - Since the treatment is proposed only for the remaining
degradable waste on site, the process of bio-augmentation is very simple and cost effective.
• Step 3 – Sieving the degraded waste - Sieved out waste can be used as manure.
• Step 4 – Rejected waste will be recyclable and inert. - The recyclable waste will be
recycled and the inert waste will be used for leveling at dumping site.
The following method of Bio remediation; i.e. Bio Augmentation will be suitable for the
treatment of the existing dumped waste. In Bio Augmentation, the current solid waste has
to be loosened with a tractor or Excavator. After the loosening, the culture will be sprayed
on the solid waste. It will increase the rate of degradation of the waste. After this stage,
sieving of the degraded waste will be done and sieved out waste will be manure and can be
used as compost. The rejected waste which will be inert or recyclable can go into landfill or
into suitable processes for recyclable waste.

On the landfill site of the 10% of inert waste need to be re dumped on landfill after
bioremediation. As explained above, the required area considering the volume to be
deposited on landfill after Bioremediation and segregation along with the volume required
for sanitary landfill site is given.
Before the construction of landfill facility, site shall be properly cleared from any shrubs and
bushes. A benchmark has to be fixed at an immovable known point. Site shall be leveled and
compacted. As the highest ground water table is at about 1 m from ground level, it is
suggested to have filling by hard murum of 0.5 m thick and compacting the same. The filler
material is leveled to get the desired slope of 1 %.
In order to prevent the sliding movement of the waste, earth bunds has to be constructed
over the sides of landfill. The soil bunds are of trapezoidal shape. As per the design, the
landfill is 6 meters above the ground level and 4 meters below groud level. Total hight
considered is 10 meter. The inside slope is of 1:2.5 (V: H). Soil bunds shall be of hard
murrum with required specification. The soil has to be tested as per the parameters
mentioned in Quality assurance plan. During construction of bunds, soil has to be laid in
layers of about 30 cm and each layer has to be well compacted before going for next layer.
During compaction the soil shall be at its optimum moisture content so as to achieve
maximum compaction. Soil bund is of 3 meters height with inner and outer slopes of 1: 2.5
(V: H). the top width of soil bund is 3 meters.

F IGURE 7-6: L EACHATE C OLLECTION P IPES ARE TO BE CONNECTED TO A SUMP , THROUGH THE LINER
A liner system is the barrier that separates waste from the environment. The bottom and
sideliner system must effectively stop the migration of leachate from the landfill for many
years. In order to prevent the migration of leachate from the landfill facility, the bottom and
side lining system is of minerallic type, with different layers and specifications. First after
grading and leveling the site, filling by hard murum is carried out as per the designed slope.
Over the filled material, 90 cm thick clay liner has to be laid. While laying clay liner, the
permeability of clay should be lesser than 1 x 10-7 cm/sec and the moisture content shall be
at its optimum moisture content. Clay layer of bottom liner shall be laid in layers of about 45
cm thick and should be well compacted with a vibrating Roller of 4 to 5 tons. After
compaction the clay layer shall be left out for natural drying and settlement for at least 5 to
6 days. If any cracks develops in clay liner that has to be grouted with bentonite.
Over the clay liner, a High Density Poly- Ethylene (HDPE) liner of 1.5 mm thick has to be
provided. The joints of the HDPE liner have to be welded by Lap joint method. HDPE liner
shall be of two sides textured. Over the HDPE liner, a Geo-textile membrane of 1.5 mm thick
of non-woven type & Poly-propylene (PP) make should be laid. The textile portion of geo-
textile shall be facing upside. The purpose of Geo-Textile is to protect HDPE sheet from any
shock loads, which may be due to vehicle movement. Over Geo-Textile liner, a drainage
layer of thickness of about 30 cm has to be laid uniformly on entire bed of bottom area. This
drainage layer is for effective collection and conveyance of leachate coming out from waste.
Therefore, the permeability of the drainage layer shall be greater than 1 X 10 -2 cm /sec.
In order to collect and convey the leachate to the collection sump, the leachate collection
channel has been designed. The leachate collection drain, from the middle of each cell as
shown in drawings has to be constructed first. The generated leachate will be collected in
the channel due to bottom transverse slope of 1.0%, and conveyed by gravity to sump due
to longitudinal slope of 1.0%. For collection and conveyance of leachate to sump, a
perforated HDPE pipe of 30 cm ID has to be laid as shown in drawings. The pipes should
have rectangular slots of size 20 mm x 5 mm, placed at spacing of 100 mm/cc in the
longitudinal direction and 50 mm spacing laterally. The slots shall be placed along the length
of the pipe only on the sides with 20 mm side of slot being parallel to the longitudinal axis of
the pipe, in a zigzag pattern as shown figure below:
The leachate collection channels have to be packed with drainage material. The slopes of
the pipe should be such that, the leachate should flow easily into the leachate collection
sump later on the leachate from sump has to be transported for treatment.
RCC sump of 6 X 3 X 1.8 M temporarily covered with RCC slab has been recommended to be
constructed for collection of leachate from “leachate collection system”. The construction of
the sump shall be gradual with the filling of the waste. A clear depth of 1 meter has to be
maintained between the bottom of sump and leachate connection pipe. About 20mm thick
plastering has to be done at the inner and outer side of sump. Epoxy powder (which acts as
water proof agent) has to be used during plastering. The RCC slab has been provided with a
manhole of 1 m x 1 m through with a monkey ladder. The manhole has to be covered with
hinged steel gate in order to avoid the entry of rainwater into the sump. The collected
leachate from sump has to be transferred to leachate pond by pumping. After closure of
Sanitary landfill Facility, appreciable quantity of leachate is not expected to be generated,
however, if any leachate is generated it has to be transferred to leachate pond.
The leachate has to be pumped to the leachate pond. Two pumps (non-corrosive type) of 2
HP each (discharge 25 m3 /hr and total maximum head of 25 m) have to be installed in each
leachate collection sump. These pumps may be installed at the RCC slab of collection sump
with proper rainwater protection. While one will be active the other will serve as standby.
During heavy rainfall, both the pumps can be operated. The sump has to be covered and
protected against rainwater.
Storm water drainage is one of the main components of landfill facility. The arrangement
shall be such that, the storm water from landfill facility has to be collected effectively in
drainage system and conveyed away from facility with in short time. Storm water drain shall
be of trapezoidal shape with brick lining. The inside part of drain has to be plastered with
cement motor. Storm water drain shall be constructed all along the outer periphery of soil
bund
Monitoring wells have to be constructed around the facility for periodic monitoring of the
quality of ground water. The monitoring wells to be provided along the four corners of
landfill facility. The groundwater at a regular time interval must be monitored for the
specified parameters. The frequency of monitoring can be monthly in the first 5 years of
operation of the facility, thereafter quarterly up to 25 years or till the life of the facility is
exhausted and semi-annually after closure of the facility (for 5 years after closure of the
facility).
A main approach road of 6 m wide from the main gate running parallel between the landfill
and compost yard till the southeast end of the facility is suggested.
The green belt development around landfill facility will ensure the reduction in soil erosion
and air pollution due to dust suppression. This also increases aesthetic value of the area. As
per the design, about 3 m wide green belt along the periphery and shall be developed
accordingly.
In order to manage the operation and maintenance of the facility and to maintain the record
of daily waste disposal, an office with necessary furniture and other facilities has to be
established at the site area. A laboratory will have to be set up in order to analyse waste
samples and to carry out monitoring activities with regard to air and water and some time
soil if required.
Apart from above, other facilities such as electricity for lighting arrangement in SLF area,
weighbridge, fire protection equipment, personnel protective equipment, drinking water,
storage area for equipment, shelter for machinery & vehicles and security cabin will be
required during operation and maintenance of SLF. Periodically, crawler dozer will be
required for layer wise compaction of waste. A 300-micron thick LDPE/HDPE sheet, sand
filled bags will also be required for intermediate covering of waste during rainy seas
The prime function of a final cover or the top liner system is to minimize infiltration of
precipitation. Other functions include preventing the contamination of surface run off, wind
dispersion of municipal solid waste and direct contact of the municipal solid waste with
humans and animals. For long-term performance with minimum maintenance, the final
cover is designed to promote surface drainage and minimize erosion. After the operational
life, each cell of landfill facility has to be closed and covered with suggested top cover
system, as shown below:
Over the foundation layer, 30 cm thick gas drainage layer has to be laid with 16-32
mm size gravel.
T OP L INER S YSTEM
The gas outlet pipe should be connected to the gas drainage layer. The gas outlet
pipe is to remove the gas generated from consolidated waste after complete closing.
Over the gas drainage layer, 60 cm thick clay layer should be laid. The permeability of
clay should be less than 1 X 10-7 cm/sec. During laying of clay layer, the moisture
content in clay should be as per the optimum moisture content in order to achieve
permeability factor shown above. The clay liner shall be laid in two layers each of
thickness 300mm. Each layer of clay shall be well compacted with a vibratory roller
of 4 to 5 tons.
Over the clay liner, 30 cm thick storm water drainage layer has to be laid with 16-32
mm size gravel. The permeability of drainage layer should be more than 1 X 10-2
cm/sec.
Over the drainage layer, 45 cm thick native soil should be provided for vegetation in
two layers. The first layer has to be compacted, other two layers has to be left loose
for the growth of vegetation. A vegetation cover has to provide at the top of the soil
in order to prevent the soil erosion due to precipitate and also for better landscaping
The total cost estimate has been calculated for 25 years, in which 2 sanitary landfill pits are
to be constructed. For the purpose of design period of this project, consider the cost for
12.5 years, i.e. construction of 1 Pit. The tentative cost estimate for development of the
sanitary landfill and other infra-structural facilities is presented in the following tables:
The leachate from the landfill is mainly due to the rain water. Therefore, the leachate
depends on the rainfall in the town.
It is proposed to treat leachate from the landfill site using Phytorid Treatment Technology.
The treatment process has to have low operation and maintenance cost.
The specifications and quality aspects of the Landfill facility is very important, in order to
achieve designed performance of sanitary landfill facility. Liner system of landfill facility has
been designed in consideration with following points;
1) 1X90 cm thick compacted clay or compacted amended soil with permeability less than
1X10-7 cm /s with the following specifications:

The following construction activities shall be carried out along with construction of landfill
facility before disposal of waste.
Construction of perimeter fence, entrance gate, weighs bridge and green belt.
Construction of main access road near the entrance gate with parking area.
Construction of service road along the perimeter of the site and well as construction

Construction of emergency exit gate.
Records shall be kept on a daily, weekly and monthly basis. In addition a site Manual shall
be kept at the site office giving all site investigation, design and construction details The
following records shall be maintained during operation of landfill
(i) Landfill Manual: The site manual shall contain the following information:
(ii) Site Reports: The daily, weekly and monthly reports shall comprise of the following:
At the design stage, the cells of a landfill are clearly demarcated. Operation of a cell
requires planning and execution of daily activities such as daily waste filling plan and
demarcation, waste discharge & inspection, waste placement, waste compaction, daily
covering of waste, prevention of pollution & fires, etc.
7.6.3.1 D A I LY W A STE F I L LI NG P LA N A ND D E MA RC A T I ON AT S I TE :
On the completion of a cell and before the start of a new cell, a waste-filling plan for daily
cells shall be evolved. A study of the landfill base contour maps and the final cover levels of
the cell allows such a plan to be developed. If a cell is to be operational for 365 days, all 365
cells must be marked in plan and in sectional drawings. These may require revision as a
landfill is constructed because waste quantities may vary in an unforeseen manner. The
area and height proposed to be filled every day should be demarcated at the site on a daily
or weekly basis using temporary markers or bunds.
Waste shall be discharged by tipping at the working area of a landfill, within the area
demarcated for the cell. A designated operator shall visually inspect every discharged load.
Working area personnel shall be trained and competent at waste identification in order that
they can recognize waste, which may be non-conforming. In the event of reasonable doubt
as to the waste acceptability, the operator shall inform the waste reception facility and/or
the site manager immediately.
Once waste has been discharged it shall be spread in layers and compacted in a well-defined
manner to ensure that the completed slopes of a daily cell are at the designed gradients.
Face tipping method: Waste is deposited on top of existing surface and spread
horizontally by tipping over an advancing face.
Inclined layering method (onion skin tipping): Similar to (a) but inclined layering
(gentile slope) done instead of advancing of face.
Working upwards: Waste is deposited on the lower surface and pushed upwards.
It is necessary to level and compact the waste as soon as it is discharged at the working
area. Steel wheeled mobile landfill compactors (smooth / cleared / spiked / special wheels)
are generally accepted as the best equipment for this purpose. They have largely replaced
the small crawler tracked machines, which were previously in general use.
7.6.3.4 O P E R A T IO N IN M ON S O O NS :
During the monsoon month, high rainfall results in excessive generation of leachate. Hence,
before the onset of monsoons, the cell must be capped with a monsoon cover. Waste
received during monsoon months shall be disposed off in landfill during dry period by
removing temporary cover.
7.6.3.5 P O L LU TI ON P RE V E NT I ON & S A FE T Y D U R IN G O PE RA T I O N :
The following measures are needed to ensure that the landfill operation shall not adversely
affect local environment within and outside the landfill.
Traffic: Heavy lorry traffic shall give rise to nuisance, damage to road surface and
verges and routing problems. The following measures are helpful.
o Routing to avoid residential area.
o Using one-way routes to avoid traffic conflict in narrow roads.
o Carrying out road improvements, for example strengthening or widening
roads, improved provision of footpaths, improvement of sight lines, provision
of passing places, provision of new roads.
o Limiting the number of vehicle movements.
o Restrictions on traffic movement hours, which are staggered with respect to
peak traffic hours.
Noise: Adverse impacts on the local community from noise may arise from a number
of sources including: throughput of vehicles and fixed and mobile plant for example
compactors, generators at the site. Peripheral noise abatement site measures shall
be adopted.
Odour: Offensive odours at landfill sites may emanate from a number of sources,
including waste material, which have decomposed significantly prior to land filling,
leachate and leachate treatment systems, and landfill gas. Good landfill practices
shall greatly reduce general site smell and reduce impact from odours, which could
lead to complaints from the local community, site users and site staff.
Good practice includes: (a) adequate compaction; (b) speedy disposal and burial of
malodorous wastes; (c) effective use of appropriate types of daily cover, (d)
progressive capping and restoration; (e) effective landfill gas management; (f)
effective leachate management and (g) consideration of prevailing wind direction
when planning leachate treatment plants, gas flares, and direction of tipping.
Litter: Poor litter control both on and off site is particularly offensive to neighbors.
Good operational practice shall be adhered to in terms of temporary fencing, waste
discharge, placement, compaction and covering to minimize the occurrence of
windblown litter.
Bird Control: Birds are attracted to landfill sites in large numbers where sites receive
appreciable amounts to bio wastes. Measures, which can be used to mitigate birds’
nuisance, include good landfill practice, working in small active areas and progressive
prompt covering of waste, together with the use of bird scaring techniques.
Vermin and Other Pests: Landfills have potential to harbour flies, rodents and
vermin, particularly where the waste contains biomaterials. Modern land filling
techniques including prompt emplacement, compaction and covering of wastes in
well-defined cells are effective in the prevention of infestation by rodents and
insects.
Dust: Dust from landfill operations is mainly a problem during periods of dry weather
but can also arise from dusty waste as it is tipped. Dust is generally associated with
(a) site preparation and restoration activities, (b) the disposal of waste comprising of
fine particles, for example powders, and (c) traffic dust. Dust suppression can be
effected by (a) limiting vehicle speed; (b) spraying roads with water and (c) spraying
site and powder type waste with water; (d) covering powder type waste with daily
soil cover.
Mud on the Road: Mud on the public highway in one of the most common causes of
public complaint. It is therefore, in the interest of the landfill operator to provide
adequate wheel cleaning facilities to ensure that mud is not carried off site by
vehicles.
Landfill Fire Management: Fires in waste on landfill sites are not uncommon and it is
important for site operators to be aware of the dangers, how to treat fires and to
address the problems associated with them. All fires on-site shall be treated as a
potential emergency and dealt with accordingly.
Landfill Safety Aspects: Training of employees shall include: site safety, first aid and
the handling of dangerous materials where appropriate. Since landfill sites can pose
dangers to both site operator and users, emergency plans shall be laid down. Landfill
sites shall be regarded as potentially hazardous locations and the operator shall have
a written safety plan for the site. Safety hazards present at landfill sites may include;
(a) moving plant and vehicle; (b) steep slopes; (c) bodies of standing water; (d)
contaminated, putrescible, toxic flammable or infective material and (e) noxious,
flammable, toxic or hazardous gas. All employees and visitors to the site shall be
made aware of the potential hazards and the safety procedures to be implemented
including fire safety.
As each cell is completed and as the final cover level is reached in successive cells, the
following interconnectivities are established:
(a) The leachate collection system of each cell is sequentially connected (if so designed)
The surface water; drainage system at the cover of each cell is sequentially connected (of so
designed)
(b) Upon completion of all cells a final check is made of the proper functioning of all inter
connected systems.
An access road is provided on the landfill cover to enable easy approach for routine
inspection of the landfill cover.
7.6.4.1 P O S T C L O SU RE V E GE T A T IV E S TA BI L IZ A TI ON (L ON G T E RM )
If a landfill cover is intended to be used for a specific purpose e.g. park or vehicle parking
area, then the cover shall be stabilized in such a manner that the end-use is achieved.
However, if no specific end-use is envisaged, then long-term vegetative stabilization shall be
undertaken to return the land to its original and natural vegetative landform.
Vegetation is by far the most common and usually the preferred stabilization option after
closure of landfills. If a self-perpetuating vegetative cover can be established, not only can
wind and water erosion be minimized, but also the landfill can be returned to some
semblance of its original appearance and land use. In favorable climates, re-vegetation may
require only modest effort or may occur by natural process during a reasonably short period
of time. However, in arid climates or a harsh environment, establishment of vegetation may
be a difficult and costly process and alternative techniques may be examined for vegetative
stabilization.
While the specific procedures are unique to each landfill and climatic regime, the following
representative elements of the process shall be adopted in all procedures.
(a) Short-term Vegetation: It is common practice, in both humid and dry environments, to
rely largely on grasses for the primary initial source of short-term land cover. Usually several
species are included in the initial seeding mixture to increase diversity and reduce the
chance of total community failure. Short-term vegetation is usually assisted by irrigation.
(b) Long-term Vegetation: To achieve the ultimate goal of attaining a self-sustaining and
stable community, a transition between short term and long-term vegetation must occur. In
some cases, this may be left to invasion by native species after short-term vegetation is
assured and soil development is well under way. In other cases – for example, when
irrigation has been used temporarily to establish the short-term community, it may be
necessary or desirable to enhance the natural succession process by replanting with a more
diverse mix of species suited to the next stage of community succession. The need for
artificial enhancement of the successional process shall depend on the success of previous
short-term efforts and on the ultimate intended land use. All vegetation efforts, however,
shall work toward self-generation and minimum management in the long term.

The owner/operator shall monitor and keep a record of the following in the
operation period:
o Functioning of the leachate management system (including levels in leachate
holding tank) (weekly).
o Functioning of the surface water run-off system (weekly)
o Functioning of the gas management system (weekly)
o Waste filling records shall be kept on daily basis.
o Leachate sampling and monitoring shall be done 1 to 2 times a month. The
results shall be recorded and compared with the permissible limits provided
by the KSPCB.
o After a major storm, the occurrence of the storm and functioning of various
systems shall be recorded.
The KSPCB (or its nominee) shall inspect all facilities at least twice a year. The
owner/operator shall provide a copy of the environmental monitoring record to the
KSPCB on a yearly basis.
Period inspection and routine maintenance at a closed landfill site shall be carried out for a
period of 15 years after closure. The KSPCB shall inspect all facilities during the closure and
post closure period at least once a year. The owner/operator shall provide a copy of the
environmental monitoring record to the KSPCB once a year. The following components of a
closed landfill shall be inspected visually after landfill closure to confirm that all functional
elements are working satisfactorily and inspection report will be recorded. A maintenance
schedule with specified reporting formats is drawn up after each inspection.
The final cover is inspected 2 to 4 times a year (a) to check that vegetation growth is
occurring satisfactorily and that plants are not showing stunted growth (b) to detect if any
erosion gullies have been formed thereby exposing the barrier layers, (c) to earmark
depressions that may have developed with time and (d) to identify pounding of water on
the landfill cover. At least one inspection shall be carried out during or immediately after
the peak of the monsoon season.
Closed landfills show significant settlement. Rectification measures shall not only re-
establish the initial slope of the cover (for proper surface water run-off) but shall also ensure
that all the components of the landfill cover system continue to perform as originally
envisaged. TMC shall have sufficient equipment and funds to periodically carry out
maintenance work in the form of soil filling, re-grading the cover and re-vegetating the
landfill cap.
In areas where extensive erosion gully formation is observed, filling of cover material,
regarding of cover slopes and re-vegetation must be routinely undertaken.
The surface water drainage system is also inspected 2 to 4 times a year (i) to identify cracks
in drains due to settlements. (ii) to delineate clogged drains requiring immediate clean up
and (iii) to study the level of deposited soil in the storm water basin and initiate excavation
measures. Broken pipes and extensively cracked drains may require replacement after
filling soil beneath them to establish slopes for gravity flow. In extreme cases where long-
term settlement shall be excessive, it shall become necessary to make sumps and operate
storm water pumps for removal of accumulated water in the drainage system.
A weekly operating record of leachate management systems shall be kept in the post-
closure period. Periodic inspection of the leachate collection systems (2 to 4 times a year) is
undertaken to identify broken pipes, leaking gas (if any) and damaged or clogged
wells/sumps. Repair work requires skilled manpower and shall be carried out by the
agencies operating the gas treatment and leachate treatment facilities. One may often have
to install new gas extraction wells and leachate collection wells if the damaged / clogged
facilities are inaccessible and irreparable.
Ground water monitoring wells, air quality monitoring systems shall be periodically carried
out to check that all systems are functioning satisfactorily and that well caps sampling ports
are not subjected to damage due to excessive settlement or vandalism.
The activities to be carried out under environmental monitoring plan are as follows:
After closure of the landfill, the owner/operator of the landfill shall maintain the
integrity of the final cover systems including making repair, as necessary to rectify
the settlement, subsidence or erosion of the cover.
After closure of the landfill, the owner/operator shall continue to operate all
leachate, gas and surface water management systems as well as continue
environmental monitoring of the landfill for a period of 15 years or until such time
that harmful leachate is not produced for 5 continuous years.
The ward level administration should be fully responsible for ensuring storage of segregated
waste at source, primary collection of waste, street sweeping and taking the waste to bulk
community waste storage sites clearing debris and cleaning surface drains and public
spaces. The cleaning of each street, lane, by-lane, markets and public space should be
regularly supervised by the ward-level supervisors. Qualified supervisors having a diploma
of sanitary inspectors should be appointed as a ward level supervisor and he could be
designated as sanitary sub inspector. He should work under a sanitary inspector who should
supervise at least three wards under him having a population of nearly 50000 people.
The town level administration should supervise and support the zonal level administration.
The central SWM Department should be responsible for upkeep of vehicles and for
managing the disposal sites in an environmentally acceptable manner.
The central SWM department should also be responsible for the procurement of vehicles,
equipment, and land for processing and disposal of waste. As a head office it should take
policy decisions and co-ordinate the activities of all the zones and the wards and be
answerable to the chief executive officer and elected body for the efficient functioning of
the department. It should look after the recruitment of manpower, human resources
development, training etc.
Authority and responsibility should go hand in hand. For fixing accountability there should
be adequate delegation of fiscal and disciplinary powers to the officers and the supervisory
staff responsible for managing solid waste and carrying out all day-to-day functions
smoothly.
The Head of the SWM department should also have the power to punish subordinates
including supervisory staff. Adequate in-built checks may be introduced to ensure that the
delegated powers are not misused.
The sweepers may be assigned “Pin point” individual work assignments according to the
density of the area to be swept. The yardsticks given earlier may be adopted.
As per Normative standards of GOK 1 sweeper is allotted for every 1000 M of Road length.
The norms of work for the supervisors may also be prescribed and monitored by the
Municipal Corporation, for the extent of sweeping areas and the number of garbage
collection points to be inspected each day by the various levels of supervisors and
inspection of processing and disposal sites etc. to ensure adequate output of the
supervisory staff.
All Supervisory Officers right from sanitary sub-inspectors to Health Officer and Engineer in-
charge of SWM department must remain on the field for 4 hours in the morning between
the time of street sweeping and lunch break. The timings for the middle level supervisor
could be from 7.00 a.m. to 11.00 a.m. and for senior levels from 8.00 a.m. to 12.00 noon or
8.30 to 12.30 in the morning. The junior level supervisors should supervise there till the end
of the working hours of the street sweepers and transport staff. This supervision will have a
direct impact on the quality of service.
For capacity building of the department, senior officials should be frequently exposed to
developments taking place in various parts of the State and country by sending them out on
City visits and to attend seminars, workshops and training courses. They should also be
involved in all decision making processes.
The sweepers may be directed to sweep the roads and footpaths in the area allotted to
them as well as to collect the domestic, trade and institutional wastes in their handcart from
the households, shops and establishments situated on the road/street allotted to them. The
above sweeping norms are for cleaning the streets in the first 4 hours of the working day. In
the remaining hours of the day, if there is a continuous 7/8 hours duty, or in the evening
session, if there is broken duty, the sweepers should be assigned pin point work for cleaning
the streets in slums and unauthorized settlements to ensure hygienic conditions in the city
and prevent the problems of health and sanitation arising in such areas.
The roads, which have a central verge or divider, should be considered as two roads. In such
cases, the length of the road allotted for sweeping should be reduced to half or alternatively
separate sweepers may be engaged for sweeping two sides of the road.
The yardstick for cleaning open spaces should be prescribed looking to the local situation.
However, 30,000 sq. of open space can be given to a sweeper for cleaning per day.
Similarly work norms can be prescribed for variety of vehicles used depending upon the
distance to be traveled and the places to be covered. These norms may be prescribed after
conducting time and motion study. Normally one vehicle carrying containers could make 7 -
8 trips to the processing and disposal site if the distance is less than 5 kms. If the distance is
between 5 and 10 Kms, 5 trips could be made. In cases where the distance is beyond 10
kms, the no. of trips could reduce to 3 or 4 per shift depending on the distance to be
travelled.
Norms of work for supervisors may be prescribed and monitored by the local body for
inspection of sweeping done, clearance of waste storage depots, transportation of waste
carried out, etc. Inspection of processing and disposal sites by various levels of supervisors
may also be prescribed to ensure adequate output of all the supervisory staff.
The first level supervisors could be asked to inspect the work of all the sweepers at least
once in two days. The sanitary sub-inspectors should inspect all the beats twice a week and
the sanitary inspector at least once a week. All temporary waste storage depots must also
be inspected by the same level of supervisors with the same frequency. All Supervisory
Officers right from Sanitary Sub Inspector to Health Officer/Chief Engineer in-charge of
SWM department must remain on the field for 4 hours in the morning between the time of
street sweeping and lunch break. The timings for the lower and middle level supervisor
should extend beyond the duty hours of the sanitation workers in the afternoon/evening to
verify whether work has been done properly. This supervision will have a direct impact on
the quality of service.
For capacity building of the department, senior officials should be frequently exposed to
developments taking place in various parts of the State/ country by sending them out on
city visits and for attending seminars, workshops and training courses. They should also be
involved in all decision making processes
The subject of solid waste management, so far being handled by Health Officers, and now
handled by environmental engineers or public health engineers with the support of
mechanical/automobile engineers to handle the workshop facilities. Qualified engineers
should, therefore, be inducted as under.
Human Resource development is very essential for internal capacity building for any
organization. Training, motivation, incentives for outstanding service and disincentives for
those who fail to perform are essential for human resources development.
Concerted efforts should be made by the Municipal Corporation to inculcate among its
officers and staff a sense of pride in the work they do and to motivate them to perform and
give their optimum output to improve the level of services of the City and the image of the
Municipal Council.
8.5.1 Training
Solid Waste Management has been a neglected subject for the past several decades.
Systems have, therefore, not developed to improve the service. Knowledge of new
technology and methods coupled with training at all levels is necessary. No specialized
courses have so far been designed to meet need of different levels of staff. Short and
medium term courses should, therefore, be designed for the sanitation workers and
supervisory staff. Special training and refresher courses may also be conducted as under:-
Unqualified supervisory staff should be given in service training to qualify for supervising
sanitation works. They may be sent out for training to the All India Institute of Local Self
Government or such similar institutions which designs special courses for sanitation
supervisors.
Refresher courses should be conducted for the sanitation workers as well as supervisory
staff at least once in every 5 years, or they should be sent for training to get an exposure to
advance in this field.
Whereas the Municipal Commissioners or the Chief Executives are responsible for day-to-
day affairs of the urban local bodies, the elected members are the policy makers and their
sanctions are essential for any major investments or improvements in SWM services. It is,
therefore, necessary that the members of the elected wing such as the Mayors/Presidents
of the Corporations/Municipalities and other important office bearers of the local bodies
are given appropriate orientation towards the need of modernization of solid waste
management practices in the urban areas and the importance of the same in terms of
health and sanitation in the cities/towns. If these members are given an appropriate
exposure, they would automatically support adequate financing for solid waste
management services and strengthen the hands of chief executives in the implementation
of modern methods of waste management and they would also help in getting public
support through their network of field workers.
SWM courses may be designed and regularly updated for Engineering, Medical and applied
science disciplines. Academic institutions at the national and state levels should be involved
in this exercise by the concerned departments of Central and State Governments
respectively. The syllabus of the engineering colleges, medical studies as well as sanitary
inspectors’ diploma courses should lay adequate emphasis on solid waste management.
Following Table Summarizes the training requirement for specific category of Solid Waste
Management workers
With a view to avoid the problems of lack of coordination and passing of responsibility to
others, it is necessary to have one person exclusively in charge of SWM in the City. The
overall control in relation to collection, transportation, processing and disposal of all waste,
including workshop facilities, should lie with him. He should also be responsible for the
cleaning of open drains under 24” depth, collection of silt, construction waste and debris
and vehicle deployment and maintenance. This work should not be left to the Engineering
Department, which should however continue to be responsible for the removal and
transportation of silt from the underground drains, storm water drains or surface drains
exceeding 24” depth, and the left over waste material from their Engineering and major
road works.
Since the SWM department depends greatly upon the support of various departments of
the Municipal Corporation, more particularly the Engineering department, the Municipal
Commissioner may hold regular monthly co-ordination meetings to sort out problems faced
by the SWM department such as expeditious repairs of roads, drains, water-supply pipe-
lines etc. which cause hindrance to street and City cleaning. The reinstatement of roads dug
up by utility services should also be given priority.
The procurement procedures for the SWM equipment also need to be expedited and
simplified in such meetings. A Rate-contract system should replace time consuming
tendering procedures.
Laying and maintaining of services in slums, provision of public health engineering services
and water supply for public toilets and road construction in the slums to improve overall
health and sanitation in the City may also be regularly reviewed in the co-ordination
committee meetings.
NGOs may be fully involved in creating public awareness and encouraging public
participation in SWM planning and practice.
The Municipal Corporation may also encourage NGOs or co-operative of rag pickers to enter
this field and organize rag pickers in doorstep collection of waste and provide them an
opportunity to improve their working conditions and income. The Municipal Corporation
can give incentives to NGOs in their effort of organizing rag pickers in primary collection of
recyclable and/or organic waste, and provide financial and logistic support to the extent
possible.
SWM services are highly labour intensive on account of increased wage structure of the
Government and municipal employees this service is becoming more and more expensive.
Besides, the efficiency of the labour force employed in the Municipal Corporation is far from
satisfactory. High wage structure and inefficiency of the work force results into steep rise in
the cost of service and yet the people at large are not satisfied with the level of service
being provided by the Municipal Corporation. Efforts to increase the efficiency by H.R.D. and
institutional strengthening will, to some extent improve the performance but they may not
be enough. It is, therefore, necessary that the Municipal Corporation seriously consider
augmenting NGO/private sector participation in solid waste management.
should be a right mix of private sector and public sector participation to ensure that there is
no exploitation of labour as well as of the management.
Major repairs and maintenance of vehicles at a private garage may also be considered
seriously.
Solid waste management, processing and disposal are an area where the private sector has
still not shown much interest. The private sector has, therefore, to be given some incentives
by way of long term contract, assured supply of garbage at the plant site, lease of land at
nominal rates for entering this field.
NGO as well as Private sector participation may be encouraged in such a way that it does
not affect the interests of the existing labour; it does not violate the provisions of the above
law, does not exploit the private labour and yet reduces the burden of the Municipal
Corporation. This will substantially help in improving the quality of service of the Municipal
Corporation, effect economy in expenditure and also give scope to the private sector to
enter the waste management market.
8.9.1 Introduction
Everyone is concerned with the growing problems of waste disposal in urban areas with the
scarce availability of land for processing and disposal of waste and environmental
remediation measures becoming ever more expensive. It is therefore necessary to not only
think about effective ways and means to process and dispose of the waste that we generate
each day, it is also essential to seriously consider how to avoid or reduce the generation of
waste in the first place and to consider ways to re-use and recycle the waste, so that the
least quantity of waste needs to be processed and disposed off. Ideally waste should be
minimized at source. Waste that can be avoided stops being a burden for the municipality.
In Sankeshwar there is very negligible action on Reduce, Reuse and Recycling of waste. The
quantity of packaging waste material and non-bio-degradable waste is going up alarmingly
every year. This increases the burden on local bodies to deal with the problem of non
biodegradable and non-recyclable components of waste landing up at processing and
disposal sites.
8.9.2.1 R E C OV E RY O F W A S TE BY A L L C O NC E RNE D :
All manufacturers producing a variety of domestic and non-domestic products, food as well
as non-food should be persuaded to seriously endeavor to use re-usable packaging
materials so that after the delivery of goods, the packaging materials could be collected
back and used over and over again. They could also consider minimizing or avoiding use of
unnecessary packaging materials by innovative methods.
Incentives & product discount should be given to consumers for the return of packaging or
bottling materials in good condition, to the waste producers or retailers to promote re-use.
The cost of packed articles and article without packaging material could be kept different
with a choice to consumers to take the article without the packaging material at low cost.
In this era of excessive packaging materials being used, a lot of recyclable waste material is
generated. All-out efforts are necessary to retrieve recyclable material from the households,
shops and establishments and fed to the recycling industries through intermediaries such as
waste purchasers, waste collectors/NGOs, etc.
Recycling means the reprocessing of used materials that would otherwise become waste. It
breaks materials down to its main component and produces new products. Recycling is most
common for valuable material or materials that are costlier if produced from virgin raw
material (such as metal, plastic, glass, and electronic waste). Recycling of organic matter
produces compost, which can be used as a soil enricher in gardens and horticulture and
which contributes to improved agriculture production.
8.9.2.2 R E U SE :
8.9.2.3 R E C OV E RY :
Recovery relates mainly to energy recovered from waste. Waste that can not be reused or
recycled can be, for example, incinerated to generate heat or electricity. Another option for
organic waste is anaerobic digestion to produce biogas. The appropriateness of such
recovery strategies depends on the composition and calorific value of waste,
Public participation is the basis for improving the solid waste management. This requires lot
of effort. Public participation is essential in the following activities.
The essential steps in this direction is to select representative samples of the community
and go through a consultative process to ascertain the perceptions of the people about the
SWM services being given to them, their expectations and extent to which they are willing
to support and participate in the process. Their choice of technological options available
also needs to be ascertained.
There is a need to interact with the community to Identify problems of waste management
through site visits and consultation with local population at the time when the community is
generally available for interaction. It may either be in early morning or late evening. The
areas may be selected by following the method of drawl of representative samples.
Situation analysis may be done by the persons who know the subject reasonably well, know
local language and can communicate with local population effectively. Such persons may be
Non-Governmental Organizations, Community Based Organisations or knowledgeable
individuals. They should try to find out the prevalent situation of waste management in the
area under observation and ascertain the perceptions of the people about the services
provided. In this exercise the local councilors, local leaders, NGOs, etc., may be invited to
participate
Having identified the deficiencies in the system and known the public perceptions, the next
essential step is to think of optional solutions to tackle the problems, workout the cost
implications and level of public participation needed.
8.9.3.2 C O NSU L T C O M M U NI TY O N OP TI ON S A V A IL A B LE :
There should be second round of consultative process where the options worked out may
be discussed with the community along with cost implications and their support required.
Their suggestions may be sought on each solution proposed. The community may be
encouraged to give their views. If we ask the people straight away the solutions of the
problems they may not be able to give right kind of suggestions as they have no exposure of
various technological options. Therefore, they must be first appraised of the options
available and then asked to give their considered opinion on what will work in their area and
how much they are willing to cooperate.
There is a need for capacity building to promote the concept of waste segregation at source.
A detailed plan for capacity building has to be developed. An overview of the concepts, mass
awareness program involved and training is presented here. A budget for the mass
awareness campaign has been included in the estimates. The success of the segregation
concept is based on the consistent follow up over a long period of time.
In Solid Waste Management (SWM) the people, partnerships, coalitions, resources and skills
very are essential to its successful implementation. Multiple approaches have to be adopted
for creating awareness and participation including.
As part of this project a budget for awareness creation has been included with the following
objectives.
The table below gives details of the financial requirement as capital expenditure for
improving efficiency of waste management.

In the MSWM DPR the digital base map are prepared. The roads are depicted as road
centerlines and respective road flanks as per their widths. The actual physical marking of the
routes of the vehicles is done on the base maps. These digital base map are used as the
input and optimum routes have been identified for Solid Waste collection for door to door
household level.
The digital base map of TMC shows the road network, building footprints, waste dumping
site, and location of bulk generators. The road network comprises of road centerlines and
the road flanks (marked as per the road widths).
For the purpose of optimum route identification, initially all the road junctions (nodes, to be
treated as garbage collection points) are marked. This was followed by manual selection of
nodes to be retained as garbage collection point and discarding the others. The selection of
nodes was based upon the density of buildings in the zone under consideration.
Optimum route for Solid Waste collection was identified using ESRI’s Network Analyst
extension of Arc View GIS. This extension helps the user to use the networks more
efficiently. It gives the facility to find the best route to get from one location to another, or
the best way to visit several locations. It allows the user to either decide the order in which
the locations are to be visited, or the Network Analyst can find the best visiting sequence.
Network Analyst used Direction and Resistance as the minimum parameters for finding the
optimum route. As of now, all the roads have been marked as one way roads or
Bidirectional roads on basis of actual site scenario and the length of individual road segment
as the resistance. Thus, for given source and destination with intermediate nodes to be
visited, Network Analyst finds the existing connectivity and selects the geometrically
shortest route as the ‘Optimum Path’.
Garbage collection typically follows the sequence: from node to dumping site. The optimum
route is identified for Solid Waste collection from nodes. The existing routes and proposed
optimized routes for Solid Waste Collection are presented below.
