  • Addressing Fecal Sludge Management in Rural Locations | Cambodia | Ideglobal.Org | Page 1
    Addressing Fecal Sludge Management in Rural Locations | Cambodia | ideglobal.org | Page 1 TACTIC REPORT Addressing Fecal Sludge Management in Rural Locations Pit latrines have become the solution for rural sanitation in many of the world’s poorest, remote, and difficult to access locations. At some point in time, the pit fills. What can households in these areas do to safely manage their sanitation needs? Context As sanitation coverage increases across the globe, fecal sludge management (FSM) is becoming increasingly important as the next sanitation issue that needs to be addressed. Most FSM solutions are designed for urban environments and involve collection (by vacuum truck or manual emptying) and mass treatment (e.g., ponds, aerobic digesters). For rural communities and households in Cambodia, these solutions present both economic and logistical challenges. Households in some areas have been able to manage their pit emptying issues with the service of pump trucks that come directly to the household. However, these solutions are still relatively expensive, are sometimes unable to navigate rural roads, and many hand-made varieties of these trucks lack the ability to hygienically remove and transport waste. As motor-powered pumps are Addressing Fecal Sludge Management in Rural Locations | Cambodia | ideglobal.org | Page 2 becoming cheaper, households are increasingly opting to use these over manual emptying with buckets. Yet despite increasing availability of pumps and trucks, waste disposal is rarely handled safely. In rural areas, the cost of constructing and maintaining a safe, hygienic treatment collection plant is prohibitive. The economies of scale that enable mass waste treatment plants to operate sustainably in urban areas are simply not available in rural villages.

  • Faecal Sludge and Septage Management Policy and Operational Guidelines
    Greater Visakhapatnam Municipal Corporation Faecal Sludge and Septage Management Policy and Operational Guidelines The study/report is made possible by the support of the American people through the United States Agency for International Development (USAID). The contents are the sole responsibility of WSUP Advisory and do not necessarily reflect the views of USAID or the United States Government. FOREWARD Praveen Kumar, IAS District Collector and Magistrate, Visakhapatnam Safe and sustainable sanitation is a basic requirement for the people living in any city. The Ministry of Urban Development, GoI, have taken steps by way of introducing two major schemes viz; Swachh Bharat Mission Urban (SBM-U) and AMRUT. As per the Swachh Sarvekshan 2017 data, out of 4,041 cities where Ministry of Urban Development (MoUD) is presently focusing, 1012 cities have been declared Open Defecation Free (ODF). Achieving ODF is the first step towards cleaner and safer environment. The cities which have been declared ODF should now take the next step and move towards safer disposal of Faecal Sludge. The city of Visakhapatnam which has secured the rank of third cleanest city in the 2017 Swachh Sarvekshan is taking the lead in developing the Faecal Sludge and Septage Management Policy. In addition to the policy, GVMC has developed the Operational Guidelines for safe septage disposal at designated sites in the Sewage Treatment Plant. Only 26.9 per cent of the household in Visakhapatnam are connected to centralized sewerage network. Out of this only 16.17 per cent is being treated at the Sewage Treatment Plant (STPs). This policy aims to address the existing gaps and provide for safe collection, transportation, disposal as well as treatment of faecal sludge.

  • Urban Sanitation Services
    Technical Brief 5 URBAN SANITATION SERVICES USAID Water and Development TECHNICAL SERIES INTRODUCTION In a global and increasingly urbanized world, cities play a key role in building a better future. Better managed cities with improved services contribute to improved health, governance, cleaner environments, dignity, and economic growth. However, human waste must be managed in ways that safeguard the urban environment, including water and food supplies, to maximize development outcomes. The purpose of this technical brief is to provide an overview of the important factors to consider in the United States Agency for International Development’s (USAID) urban sanitation programming. In addition to the USAID Water and Development Plan under the U.S. Global Water Strategy, this technical brief is aligned with USAID’s Sustainable Urban Services Policy, Private Sector Engagement Policy, and Environmental Natural Resource Management Framework. This document focuses on human excreta management activities that are attributable to the Agency’s Water Directive and does not include broader sanitation areas such as solid waste. KEY TAKEAWAYS • Urban sanitation is more than just toilets. Dense urban environments require consideration of the whole sanitation service chain to ensure safely managed sanitation: fecal waste containment, collection, transport, treatment, and final disposal or reuse. • Effective urban sanitation is city-wide and inclusive. There is no simple solution – rapidly growing cities require a range of technical solutions across the sanitation service chain. Ensuring that everyone benefits from safely managed sanitation requires specific approaches to target the underserved. • Apply commercial principles to service provision. Management of sanitation services is as important as the technologies involved, and financial viability is a critical element of sustainable services.

Scott and Pay Drechsel About the Resource Recovery & Reuse Series Resource Recovery and Reuse (RRR) is a subprogram of the CGIAR Research Program on Water, Land and Ecosystems (WLE) dedicated to applied research on the safe recovery of water, nutrients and energy from domestic and agro-industrial waste streams. This subprogram aims to create impact through different lines of action research, including (i) developing and testing scalable RRR business models, (ii) assessing and mitigating risks from RRR for public health and the environment, (iii) supporting public and private entities with innovative approaches for the safe reuse of wastewater and organic waste, and (iv) improving rural-urban linkages and resource allocations while minimizing the negative urban footprint on the peri-urban environment. This subprogram works closely with the World Health Organization (WHO), Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), United Nations University (UNU), and many national and international partners across the globe. The RRR series of documents present summaries and reviews of the subprogram’s research and resulting application guidelines, targeting development experts and others in the research for development continuum.
