| Summary: | Most Indian municipalities, despite spending 30 to 50 percent of their total municipal services budget on Solid Waste Management (SWM), are unable to provide satisfactory SWM services. Recognizing the need to develop a sustainable SWM model, particularly for small towns of India, and at the request of the Government of India (GOI), the Regional Water and Sanitation Group - South Asia (RWSG-SA) is assisting the Government of Goa (GOG) in project preparation, planning and implementation of a community based solid waste management system for Panaji, the capital of Goa. This paper discusses the project preparation process followed by the RWSGSA and salient features of the proposed SWM system. |
