4 MUNICIPAL SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT IN DAR ES SALAAM Summary Report BASELINE ANALYSIS introduction This summary report was prepared following a two week mission in Dar es Salaam from March 5 to 17, 2012. During the mission, the consultant met with MUNICIPAL officials, the private sector, NGOs and CBOs and conducted a series of site visits intended to provide an on the ground understanding of existing facilities, system operations and key issues. A workshop was also held on March 7 to bring together the DLAs, the private sector, CBOs and NGOs to review Dar es Salaam s proposed directions, to identify issues and to discuss ideas and approaches for moving forward.

5 Background The City of Dar es Salaam Dar es Salaam is the country s largest industrial and commercial centre with an estimated population of more than 4 million in 2012 and a population growth rate of percent. The total land area is about 1,500 km with a population density of around 2,700 persons per km . More than seventy percent of the population live in unplanned and under-serviced areas of the city. The Dar es Salaam MUNICIPAL government is composed of the Dar es Salaam City Council (DCC) and three contiguous MUNICIPAL Councils: Kinondoni (KMC) to the north, Ilala (IMC) in the center, and Temeke (TMC) to the south.

6 Together, the four local governments are commonly referred to as the Dar es Salaam Local Authorities (DLAs). Methodology The MSW system in Dar es Salaam (DSM) has been the subject of detailed study by international donors for more than 30 years. Since 1979, there have been six major international 5 studies focusing exclusively on the overall SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT system. Several have proposed comprehensive SOLID WASTE master plans for the city. There have also been numerous reports recommending improvements to the MSW system as part of broader sanitation, capacity building or environmental planning initiatives.

7 In addition, twenty six proposals have been received by the DLAs since 1997 for Energy from WASTE (EFW) facilities including a detailed proposal with funding from the Korea Organization for International Cooperation Agency (KOICA) in 2011. The Clinton Climate Initiative (CCI) proposed the development of a centralized composting facility at the Pugu landfill to manage organic market wastes. Few of the recommendations proposed in the reports have been implemented due to a lack of funds and the capacity of the DLAs to assess the reports and put the recommendations into action.

8 In 2011, the DLAs developed a project plan, without international donor assistance, for investments in the MSW system. The DLA SOLID WASTE project plan draws on the major findings and recommendations from the earlier studies and demonstrates a clear understanding of the issues and the way forward for MSW in Dar es Salaam. The DLA project plan was taken as the starting point for this baseline report. This baseline report is based on a compilation and analysis of the existing work undertaken by previous international consultancies.

9 It was supplemented with a series of meetings with key DLA officials, private sector operators, CBOs and NGOs to confirm issues and to identify suggested areas for improvement. Site visits were used to `ground truth` the findings. In addition, a workshop was held on March 7 to bring together the DLAs, the private sector, CBOs and NGOs to review the draft DLA project plan, to identify issues and to find a way forward. The meetings, site visits and attendees at the workshop are listed in Appendices 4, 5 and 6.

10 The SW TOR prepared as the first output for the Mission and attached as Appendix 7 to this report is a consensus document between the World Bank consultant and the four SOLID WASTE focal points. These focal points represent each of the four DLAs: Dar es Salaam, Kinondoni, Ilala and Temeke City Councils. Their names are listed in Appendix 4. Existing MSW MANAGEMENT System WASTE Quantities and Composition It has been estimated by the DLAs that approximately 4,200 tonnes per day of SOLID WASTE were generated in DSM in 2011.
