A. Demonstration Project
The Central Population Control Board has allotted one
demonstration project to the city Corporation of Chandigarh
for the management of Municipal Solid Waste and to project
the implementation of Municipal Solid Waste (Management &
Handling) Rules, 2000. The Project covers works relating to
road sweeping, its collection, storage and disposal as per
norms. The Municipal Corporation has purchased one
mechanical road sweeper, garbage containers of and closing of
the reclaimed area at the landfill site and development of a
new sanitary landfill site. The total cost of the project is
Rs.12.70 Crores.
B. Disposal of Domestic Hazardous Waste
At present the hazardous household waste like old batteries
and empty containers of chemicals etc. are disposed off at the
existing landfill site along with the other Municipal
Corporation Solid Waste. This practice of disposal of
Hazardous Household waste is contrary to the provisions of
the Rules. With a view to make such arrangements as per rules
the Municipal Corporation has decided to set apart an area of
about half acre land at the extreme south end of the existing
land fill site for developing the requisite facilities for the
disposal of such waste. The consultant of the Corporation has
made and estimates of Rs.2.00 Crore for the development of
such facilities.
C. Disposal of Slaughter House Waste
The city Corporation is according top priority for the
collection and transportation of waste form Slaughter House,
Meat Market and Fish Market etc. due to its peculiar nature.
At present the waste from these places are dumped along with
other Municipal solid Waste. The waste from the Vegetable
Market is transported to the Dumping ground by city Market
committee. With a view to arrange scientific disposal of
slaughter house waste, it is proposed that a Bio-gas plant of
3000 Kg. capacity may be installed at the total cost of about
Rs.45.00 lacs. The Corporation has arranged the cost estimates
for the installation of the Bio-gas Plant prepared from M/s
Mailhem Engineers Pvt. Pune.
V. CONCLUSION
Waste management should not merely revolve around
collection, transportation and disposal of waste once it is
generated and even segregated. In fact the need of the hour is
sustainable waste management reducing the waste and
controlling the products that create undesirable waste. In India
the product goes to the user and the user generates the waste, is
the model. The municipality collects and landfills it, recycles
