Environment Protection - International RealizationEnvironment Protection - International Realization The United Nations, on 5th June 1972, organized an international conference on Human Environment at Stockholm, Sweden.
This was first comprehensive international attempt to articulate the sustainable development – Environment protection in view of growing world population and economic growth.
The conference recognized the need for specific international and national actions to ensure that economic growth takes place with due regard to environmental protection and natural resources conservation.
The United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) was created in this conference and the opening day of the conference, June 5 was declared as the World Environment Day.

India – from ‘Developing’ to ‘Developed’ nationIndia – from ‘Developing’ to ‘Developed’ nation
India is midst of tremendous infrastructure & industrial growth
Greater growth means greater waste generation.
This growth is straining the environment (Air, Water, Soil) like never before
We need proactive approach to create ‘Waste Management Infrastructure’ for scientific management of waste
Waste management infrastructure is a ‘must utility’ in Master Plans of all developed cities across the world.
India has to do lot of catching up to be truly called modern country

India – from ‘Developing’ to ‘Developed’ nationIndia – from ‘Developing’ to ‘Developed’ nation
Let us be conscious of the fact that scientific waste management is no longer ‘moral’ or ‘corporate social responsibility’ – it is legal obligation in India.
This legal obligation covers all waste generating establishments – both public & private in the country
This legal obligation has motivated the private sector to see business opportunity in waste management sector.
This has caused and accelerated ‘Public Private PartnershipPublic Private Partnership’ in waste management sector in India.
PPP, if handled professionally, can provide effective solutions for waste management & sustainable growth
The central and state governments need to give a big push to enable scientific management of ‘waste’ as per statutory requirements.
We already have success stories in the country – however issues of risk allocation need to be addressed.

MSW Management - PPPMSW Management - PPP
PPP provides a mechanism wherein the private Operator brings in Capital, Technology & Manpower to establish and operate the waste management infrastructure.
The Private Operator is engaged for typical period of 5 – 25 years on BOOT (Build, Own, Operate, and Transfer) basis through transparent bidding process.
With proper monitoring, PPP ensures Innovation, Efficiency and improved level of Services together with compliance to Environment, Health & Safety (EHS).
Since government is a stakeholder in the project, the project planning, permissions, execution are facilitated.
Government plays the role of regulator ensuring performance standards by Operator through Penalties, Performance Guarantees, Escrow Accounts etc
