2 SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT - AHMAD PUR SIAL SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT – INTRODUCTION

1.1 Objective

Punjab Chief Minister Mian Shahbaz Sharif is very conscious about the proper solid waste management system and is keen to see "litter free Punjab" in the forthcoming years. In this connection, the Government of Punjab is going to implement a solid waste management initiative in certain group of TMAs. The Purpose of this initiative is to develop effective solid waste management plans for TMAs which have adequate machinery to a certain extent. In the regard, it has been decided to gather the information regarding resource availability with TMAs for conducting detailed situation analysis in solid waste management sector.

1.2 Background

Solid Waste Management is a major environment and health hazard in the urban areas of Pakistan. Cities economies are fast growing, business activity and consumption patterns are driving up solid waste quantities. In Pakistan the collection of waste is sporadic and the disposal is poor. Despite the fact that solid waste services represent the single largest expenditure item, less than 50 percent of the waste generated is collected; and is mostly disposed at dumpsites or roadsides. Additionally, recent history has shown that lifestyle is changing at a brisk pace in the city. Due to changing lifestyles and consumption habits, SWM has been increasingly recognized as one of the major environmental issue in the city.

The rapid growth of many small to medium sized towns in Punjab is causing unprecedented deterioration in the ecosystem. It is also placing enormous pressure on the capacity of these towns to provide adequate Solid Waste Management (SWM) services for their increasing populations. Chief Ministers Chief Minister's Special Initiative on Solid Waste Management is an initiative that seeks to address SWM challenges of these towns. The objectives of the exercise is to address SWM investments in these urban centers and build institutional and human resource capacities at local and regional levels for the sustainability of SWM services to reduce the environmental impact of urbanization. The initiative has a number of components including solid waste management (SWM) which seeks to minimize negative environmental and health impacts associated with poor solid waste management. The strategy is to provide 1) sustainable solid waste management system/interventions for each focal town, capable of collecting, transporting, treating and safely dispose what ultimately remains as waste 2) Capacity Building and Training component which seeks to ensure effective service delivery of SWM.

1 SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT - AHMAD PUR SIAL 1.3 Scope of the Assignment

The overarching objective of the project is to assist the cities in implementing a solid waste management intervention by developing a coherent model ISWM system in a medium-sized city, but replicable in the other cities of Pakistan. Capacity building is a second key objective that will help the provincial and local governments to move away from the present ad-hoc investments to strategic and sustainable development of their SWM sector in Pakistan.

The report includes a situation analysis of the current situation of the city’s SWM system approaching it from technical, institutional, and financial aspects perspectives, identifying economic, social, environmental, and governance issues and opportunities. The opportunity for private provision of SWM services is identified in the report and will be covered in more detail in the blueprint. In this connection a comprehensive gap analysis has been done to suggest recommendations. Finally, an action plan is suggested on two levels i.e. short term 6 months and for next one year.

1.4 Approach & Methodology

PMDFC developed a proactive approach to develop the SWM Action Plans under the guidance of Local Government & Community Development Department (LG & CCD). Detailed brain storming sessions were held between them and consensus was evolved to undertake the rapid assessment of solid waste management of 63 TMAs. These 63 TMAs were selected from 105 TMAs excluding City District Government (CDGs). Those TMAs were selected that have adequate number of SWM collection machinery. A team of surveyors who were recently trained by Urban Unit, P&D Department were briefed by PMDFC officials and in data collection workshop held in Local Government Board office.

In the field secondary agency data was collected from TMAs by the surveyor for human resource, machinery, SWM primary Collection, Secondary Collection, Final disposal sites, financial details, parking areas etc on prescribed data collection formats developed by PMDFC. Qualitative information along with pictures was also collected in detail about quality of SWM service provided at each solid waste step. In addition, citizen response and public perception about TMA service was also gauged. Field SWM data was collected by surveyors and sent back to PMDFC. After field data collection exercise data was cleaned arranged and analyzed by PMDFC. GIS maps were developed for analysis. Main approach was identifying existing capacity of cities, identifying gaps and developed recommendations. Following process was adopted in this assignment:

5 SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT - AHMAD PUR SIAL SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT – SITUATION ANALYSIS

3.1 Solid Waste Generation

Given current estimated population parameters and national per capita solid waste standards, Ahmad Pur Sial currently generates about 13.00 tons of municipal solid waste daily, and is estimated to have a yearly generation of 4745 tons. In absence of a proper solid waste management system and non availability of data, such estimates and calculations are based upon rough estimates of current population X 0.4 kg/capita/day solid waste produced. Solid waste generation in Pakistan ranges between 0.283 to 0.612 kg/capita/day (http://epd.punjab.gov.pk/?q=solid_waste), therefore waste generation for Ahmad Pur Sial is assumed around 0.4 kg/capita/day.

Due to its population growth and increase in its economic activity, Ahmad Pur Sial’s daily generation is expected to accelerate to Current Per capita waste about 19.72 tons per day (7198 tons per year) by 2023 using 0.457 generation is 0.4 kg per kg/capita/day, and then to about 30.37 tons daily (11085 tons per capital, which is likely to year) by 2033 using 0.531 kg/capita/day as shown in graph. This is increase by 1.5% every year. The future estimations and a massive amount of municipal waste for Ahmad Pur Sial. In future projections are based on a this may prove catastrophic, until a plan is devised and compound method. implemented at the earliest to cater for this uncollected waste.

6 SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT - AHMAD PUR SIAL 3.2 Primary Collection

The primary collection is accomplished by sanitary workers those carry out sweeping of streets and roads and collect the solid waste from small heaps with the help of brooms, wheel barrows etc. and store at permanent and temporary collection points. Seventy percent of localities in Ahmedpur Sial are fully served and rest are partially served. Fifty-five percent of roads in Ahmedpur Sial are fully swept each day while rest are occasionally swept. As per standards 40 sanitary workers should be present but there are sufficient 51 sanitary workers present. There are 30 hand carts (15 are out-of-order). Sanitary workers were not wearing safety equipment. No private sector was involved in primary collection.

The secondary collection is accomplished through 2 tractor-trolleys and 2 container carriers (1 is out-of-order). Collection efficiency is 40 % which is very low and must be increased to 60 % in 6 months. Secondary collection machinery is sufficient for Ahmedpur Sial and is in fair condition. There are 7 open collection points and 10 closed steel containers for secondary collection of waste. City need more vehicle drivers. TMA also has to collect wastes from debris-demolition of building structures; Hospital wastes; Slaughter Houses wastes; Vegetable market; Dead animals etc. and those are mixed with municipal waste. Scavenging is occurring mostly in Rail Bazar and Police Station Chowk and material collected are mostly sent to Jhang, Faisalabad and Lahore, though, exact data of scavenging and for other hazardous wastes in not available with TMA.

3.4 Final Disposal

In Ahmedpur Sial the disposal of solid waste is mainly done in the form of open dumps Basti Ghaziabad and Basti Haasan Sial (See SWM GIS map). These are open dumps near residential areas creating total in-sanitary & unhygienic conditions, degrading the environment of the town, emitting obnoxious smells and providing breeding for mosquitoes and flies. Citizens complain about this dumping but presently, TMA has no other option for final disposal.

12 SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT - AHMAD PUR SIAL 3.8 Human Resource Development

TMA Ahmad Pur Sial is facing severe problem in collection and dumping of Solid Waste. Due to rapid increase in the population of the city in the coming years will also generate more solid waste which needs to be cater with proper human resource planning and other capital resources. TMA Ahmad Pur Sial needs effective and efficient plans for proper disposal of increasing solid waste and dire need of trainings to the TMA relevant staff. Management Training Programs to improve solid waste management is highly neglected area in municipal sector. The Matrix below shows that higher management of TMA Ahmad Pur Sial has received training on Data collection / compilation from PMDFC, this training helps TMA to conclude analysis on generation versus collection of solid waste in the city. Furthermore, trainings must be imparted on management of collection of solid waste, transportation and disposal to Landfill sites will result in improvement of collection and disposal of solid waste, enhancing efficiency of TMA and creating clean city, healthier and pollution free environment.

14 SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT - AHMAD PUR SIAL 3.9 Citizen Complaint Registration and Resolution

Complaint Cell has been functional in TMA Ahmad Pur Sial since June 2009 for complaints registration, tracking and resolution. A separate designated room is available with designated Complaint Cell In charge where complaints are registered in the physical presence of complainant as well as telephonically. Land line number is also available in complaint cell. PMDFC assisted TMA in the establishment of Complaint cell and provided trainings and hardware support in this context. Initially, PMDFC provided standardized registers and later replaced these registers with desktop complaints software to register the complaints in a standardized form. Further PMDFC also introduced web based complaint software. Now the complaint record is available in a systematic manner. TMA Ahmad Pur Sial resolved approximately 90% of the complaints registered on primary and secondary collection of solid waste during July – Nov 2013.

Registered complaints addressed by the TMA staff in comparatively less time through computerized application provide a unique feature of accountability available to the upper management. Complainant gets a unique number of his complaint that helps him to track his complaint. It is to be noted that all complaints are not registered specially received through telephone; most of these are resolved without keeping records. Currently TMA is utilizing the computerized application and has fully adopted it in an effective manner. When complaint is registered, time of registration and resolution is also tracked by the computerized application.

It is likely to improve the oversight and monitoring of municipal service delivery which would result in the satisfaction of ultimate stakeholders i.e. citizens.

15 Do you have any suggestions related to Workers required that containers should be placed and sanitation improvement? lifted. Lahore model should be adopted.

According to general public opinion survey, improvement in the solid waste management is significantly required in the city. TMA is providing the services of primary collection and cleanliness of streets without getting any charges from the citizens. Citizens are still facing problems of garbage heaps, epidemic diseases, and odor in the area, it means secondary collection of solid waste management requires improvement.

Citizens are not paying for the services rendered by TMA for cleaning of streets as well as collection of solid waste. They are willing to pay to TMA and any private agency if they provide services of solid waste collection, disposal and cleaning of streets etc. They also consider both Government and Private agency can bring improvement in the solid waste sector.
