Such dumps will be a thing of past if the city starts segregating waste at source. Pic: Bhavna Anegundi
Divide your trash, to conquer it. Segregate your garbage it into three categories, to make life easy for everyone! Put in simple terms, this is what the High Court of Karnataka ordered in the hearing of the Public Interest Litigation on garbage problem in the city, on December 17, 2015.
Two bins and one bag, brought to the High Court of Karnataka by solid waste management activist Sandya Narayan captured the attention of the judges, who agreed with the way they can be used effectively to solve the problem of managing waste in the city. In the interim order, the bench headed by Justice N Kumar and B V Nagarathna ordered for mandatory segregation of waste at source, by implementing the three-way segregation that makes use of 2 bin – 1 bag system. The court said it was the first step towards addressing the solid waste management issue plaguing Bengaluru city.
“We are not yet finished with the case. More orders will be given in future. But, let us first implement waste segregation at source,” the bench said. The order has come at a time when BBMP is reeling under garbage crisis.
The order mainly focuses on addressing garbage issue through effective segregation of waste at source and transportation of waste. Under this system, houses should use green bin for putting wet (biodegradable) waste, red bin for hazardous and sanitary waste and a reusable bag for dry (non-biodegradable) waste.
The system is supposed to be adopted by bulk generators (apartments that have more than 50 units, or those who produce more than 10 kg of waste per day, whichever is lower) too by using bigger bins which could be handled by a single individual without any assistance. All commercial establishments, government offices and educational institutions are supposed to adhere to the same order.
The order mandates that BBMP conduct door-to-door waste collection on daily basis at a fixed time of the day in all residential, commercial areas, slums and informal units.
No garbage on ground
The order upheld the No garbage on ground (NGOG) policy that had a feeble existence in Bengaluru since the year 2000. The order says the waste collected from houses and establishments should reach the processing units directly without touching the ground. “Under no circumstances they are mixed and transported. Transportation shall take place in segregated form only,” the bench said.
This order, if implemented effectively, reduces the need for secondary garbage transfer points (where the waste from autos is transferred to lorries or compactors) that cause stench in the surroundings.
“BBMP should ensure that the waste is not mixed at any point. The biodegradable waste collected from houses, vegetable, fish and meat markets and horticulture should be processed at the composting plants and the BBMP should make optimum use of such waste,” the court said and added that the vehicles transporting waste should be fully covered and should not be visible or exposed to open environment.
The court also ordered the BBMP to stop auctioning of horticulture waste generated in parks except fruit plucking. The bench instructed the BBMP to open flower and leaf composting units in Lal Bagh and Cubbon Park. “We know what the horticulture waste contractors do. The valuable horticulture waste should be made use of. The BBMP should stop the tendering process for horticulture waste,” the judges said.
