egy, through focusing on recycling in order to reduce the need for landfill space and making materials available for use in the reconstruction process. The TWRF applies a labour intensive approach to collecting and sorting of waste, in order to complement the environmental benefits of the programme with employment generation. Workers receive a daily wage, health and safety training, appropriate clothing and protective gear, and vaccinations. Existing scavengers have been encouraged to join the programme in order to mitigate the health risks associated with scavenging. The recovered materials are sorted for recycling (plastic and metal), used as compost for land regeneration (organic waste), as fill for eroded areas (dirt, crushed concrete and stone), or as construction materials (bricks, wood) for building as part of the reconstruction process. Since January, the UNDP supported tsunami waste recycling facility has collected more than 101,000m³ Sorted rubble at Waste Recovery Facility in Banda Aceh. of tsunami waste from temporary dumpsites and other areas around Banda Aceh. So far, approximately 13,000 m 3 of wood and 56,000 m³ of rubble have been sorted for reuse and recycling in Banda Aceh. In July, the programme also initiated a public building demolition service to demolish buildings that have been damaged beyond repair. Municipal Solid Waste Collection In large parts of Banda Aceh, domestic waste is not collected but burned or dumped in gardens or by the roadside. This practice can have a serious impact on public health, sanitation and air quality. So in addition to waste generated by tsunami and earthquake disasters, the Programme has also supported the Sanitation Department of the Municipality of Banda Aceh to resume and improve municipal garbage collection and disposal and to design a strategy for long-term sustainable municipal garbage collection. UNDP-supported municipal waste collection teams collect waste from across the city, including from key facilities such as markets and campuses. In addition, the programme provides temporary equipment and vehicles to replace what was lost or damaged in the tsunami, while waiting for permanent replacement equipment/vehicles to arrive. Expansion to Other Districts Waste management activities were expanded in April from Banda Aceh to Meulaboh in Aceh Barat. The project in Meulaboh has likewise supported both recovery of tsunami generated waste, as well as municipal solid waste collection and disposal. In Meulaboh, the programme has to date cleared 21,000 m 3 of tsunami generated waste, and 1,250 m 3 of municipal solid waste. 13
In partnership with BRR and the local Dinas Kebersihan, UNDP is in process of securing a contribution through the Multi-Donor Trust Fund for Aceh and Nias (MDTFANS) a contribution of USD 15 million to up-scale the successful pilot waste management activities. The new "Tsunami Recovery Waste Management Programme (TRWMP), which is implemented in the framework of the ERTR, will expand the existing tsunami-waste recycling and municipal solid waste collection and disposal activities in Banda Aceh and Meulaboh, and expand the activities to other districts including Aceh Jaya, Nagan Raya, Pidie, Simileu and Nias. Additionally, the scale up project will provide assistance in rehabilitation of Gampong Jawa Dumpsite in Banda Aceh, to provide disposal space for non-recyclable tsunami waste and serve as an interim sanitary landfill for Kota Banda Aceh until a permanent replacement can be provided. Other dumpsites (e.g. in Meulaboh, Aceh Jaya, Pidie) may also be upgraded as funds permit. Vaccinations for labourers. As with the Immediate Employment Programme, the Waste Management Programme is also directly linked with the broader livelihoods recovery framework of the ERTR. The scaled-up TRWMP will support livelihood restoration and creation projects related to waste management processes in order to maximize the reuse of recovered materials, minimize the volume of waste requiring ultimate disposal, and create opportunities for viable recycling business start-ups. 14
