1. INTRODUCTION

The District Action Plan describes the main activities required to implement the District Solid WasteManagement Plan. The Action Plan covers a 5year period and addresses the following issues:

The set-up a District Solid Waste Management Board; Setting up a Waste Resource Centre The establishment of the Environmental Communication Teams; Taking the necessary decisions by authorities and permitting activities; For the domestic solid waste management system at the source level: Ensure (1) waste

generation minimisation at source by reuse and recycling, home composting, etc., (2) dispose of

waste on time and in the right place, (3) polluter pays fee for collection and transportation of

waste;

Improve domestic solid waste collection and transportation system by investing in a sufficientnumber of good quality waste collection and transportation equipment to ensure a reliable

waste collection from the serviced areas;

Minimise environmental impacts from any dumpsite and/or use a modern sanitary landfill;

For the healthcare waste management system ensure that infectious waste is collected from allsources and treated in accordance with the Ministry of Health regulations;

For industrial solid waste management ensure that these are handled properly within the wastegenerators premises.

2. MAIN ACTIVITIESTo successfully implement the District Solid Waste Management Plan, a number of activities are

required over the coming years These are discussed in the following sections


4/18


Treatment of organic waste at source Waste Collection and Transport Sanitary Landfill Industrial Waste Healthcare Waste Public information, awareness raising and capacity building.

Such working groups would in turn have contact persons appointed at the town or commune level.

The District Solid Waste Management Board will monitor the implementation of the waste management

system. The means that it will monitor process during the implementation phase and provide

subsequent follow-up during the operation of the system. The District Solid Waste Management Board

will ensure that all actors are executing their activities in a timely manner. Hence each administrative

unit (towns/communes) will have a group or committee at their level that reports to the District level

board.

The Board will receive reports from all actors, allowing it to monitor progress and to take corrective

action whenever planned activities are falling behind schedule or now operating as planned. Important

areas that will require close attention from the District Solid Waste Management Board include thefollowing:

Ensuring at the waste treatment at source using Toptex, mesophilic units and biopods isimplanted and functioning as intended;

Making sure that the waste collection equipment is purchased in the most efficient mannerpossible; that it is distributed equitably between communes, towns and waste managements

companies;

That the sanitary landfill is tendered in a transparent manner; hereafter the Board must closelyi h i k f h l d d fi ll h h i l dfill

The WRC will serve as a knowledge centre providing expertise within the abovementioned fields.

Rationally it should be based in Quy Nhon and serve the whole province. Furthermore, the centre will

most likely endeavour to sell its services further afield. Ideally the centre should seek links to

universities, research institutions and other similar organisations to strengthen its work and knowledgebase.

2.3.Overall Integrated Awareness Raising Strategy

At provincial level, EPA is the overall supervisor of Awareness Raising for waste management. For every

type of waste management (industrial waste management, health care waste management, organic

waste treatment at source, collection and transport of domestic waste, landfill construction and

operation, agricultural waste management) EPA guides, supports and supervises the working groups

under the District Solid Waste Management Board.

EPA will work together with all district working groups and with the related departments at provincial

level:

Awareness Raising & Training related to industrial waste: EPA works together with theprovincial Department of Science and Technology (DST) and the District Working Group

Industrial waste management;

Awareness raising & Training related to health care waste: EPA works together with theDepartment of Health (DoH) and the District Working Group Health care waste management; Awareness raising & Training related to agricultural waste: EPA works together with the

Department of Agriculture and Rural Development (DARD) and the District Working Group

Agricultural waste management;

Awareness raising & Training related to domestic solid waste management: EPA, upon positiveevaluation of the pilot phase may continue the implementation of the projects awareness

raising strategy 2010-2014. Therefore, EPA works together with the (already existing through

6/18


For market wastes

Organise demonstration models at a market to prove that it is possible, simple and profitable toreuse organic waste to produce compost even at small-scale;

Finding available area and getting agreement with residents who live close to centralcomposting area of organic wastes from market;

Training workers to operate the composting system of market wastes; Starting with small amount of wastes to get experience in operation and increase capacity

gradually;

Expanding this model wherever possible.For households

Organise demonstration models at several households to prove that it is possible, simple andprofitable to reuse organic waste to produce compost even at household-scale;

Organise public information and preparing guideline to instruct the technique; Organise training for households who are willing to apply this model (mesophilic storage unit); Installing mesophilic storage units at selected households, monitoring and helping the

households during operation of these units;

Organising public campaigns to promote this activity. Expanding this model in the other residential area wherever possible.

2.5.Establishing a Domestic Solid Waste Collection and Transportation System

Generally, in order to improve the domestic solid waste collection and transportation system for the

District, the following activities should be done:

D t i h th th i d t dif th t t ll ti f h th


7/18


Plan a collection system and determine what equipment is required (plastic bags, bins, safetyequipment, etc.);

Purchase any required equipment Training of health station and clinic staff Implement the system

2.8.Improvement of industrial waste management

The first task will be to establish what the present situation is, as it is not fully known what types and

quantities of industrial waste are generated within the district at the moment. The main proposed

actions are as follows:

Determine the types and characteristics of the industrial waste generated within the District. Establish a plan for the management of the identified industrial waste. Determine who will pay for the treatment of the industrial waste. Purchase any required equipment Training of all stakeholders as required Implement the industrial waste management system

3. IMPLEMENTATION AND SCHEDULEThe implementation of this Action Plan will start with the establishment of a District Solid WasteManagement Board. The Board (or Working Groups set up under it) will have the necessary authority to

make decision, establishing the legal and financial basis for the various activities. These groups will also

oversee the implementation of all aspects of the solids waste management systems for domestic waste,

healthcare waste and industrial waste. The timing of the various activities is briefly described in tables

3.1 to 3.6.
