GIS,Department of Geography (GIS), Maharaja’s College, University of Mysore, Mysore Abstract With rapid urbanization and population growth, the Solid Waste Management (SWM) is becoming an acute problem. The Municipal Solid Waste Management in municipal areas is increasingly assuming importance due to legal intervention, emergence emergence of newer technologies and rising public awareness towards cleanliness. Mysore, being the second cleanest city in India has to work hard to maintain the title due to the rapid urbanization. The proper and timely management of solid waste reduces or eliminates adverse impacts on the environment and human health and supports economic development and improved quality of life. The present research aims to assess the present status of municipal solid waste management and to suggest measures to improve them. The Mysore City Corporation is trying to maintain the city clean but the lack of awareness among the residents and and the lack of segregation of waste at source is the main issue. The authorities do not properly handle the e-waste. The authority has not carried out the quantification of waste generated in the city. The GPS system installed were efficient to track all the vehicles transporting the waste but the vehicles were not assigned optimum routes due to the lack of knowledge in GIS technology.

Located at the base of the Chamundi Hills about 146 km (91 mt) southwest of the state capital Bangalore, it is spread across an area of 128.42 km2(50 sq mt). The city has been divided into 65 municipal wards and the approximate population is 920550 (2011 Census) Municipal Solid Waste Management (MSWM) is an obligatory function of the Urban Local Bodies (ULBs) under the Karnataka Municipalities Act, 1964. Also, the Municipal Solid Waste, (Management and Handling) Rules, 2000 (“MSW Rules”) made it mandatory for an Urban Local Body (ULB) to practice sanitary treatment and disposal of the MSW generated. The estimated quantum of MSW currently generated in the city is approximately 402 MT. MCC has been carrying out collection and transportation of MSW in the city by deployment of its own resources and through private operators. A compost facility of 200 TPD capacity was also set up for treatment of MSW in the year 2001. The operations of the facility have however been intermittent over the past few years. However the compost plant even after augmentation of the bed by 200 TPD is receiving waste of about 150 TPD due to lack of infrastructure facilities and compost bed area. A sanitary landfill exists to the Eastern side of the compost processing plant.
