Building Access for “Waste-Water Management” Companies<br />

13<br />

Wastewater Management 1 entails all institutional, financial,<br />

technical, legislative, participatory, and managerial aspects related<br />

to the problems associated with wastewater. It involves monitoring<br />

the amount of wastes, including faecal matter or chemicals, that<br />

go into our water resources so as to keep quality at acceptable<br />

levels. Management of wastewater involves 3 stages of managing<br />

waste from household, commercial and industrial sewage and<br />

other wastewater / waste materials in an environmentally sound<br />

manner:<br />

Removal: Segregation, Collection, Transportation<br />

Treatment: Processing<br />

Reuse / Disposal<br />

Mostly, the solutions require the use of waste pipes, sewers,<br />

drains, cesspools, septic tanks, etc.<br />

While the management of non-hazardous waste in urban areas is<br />

the responsibility of local government authorities, the management<br />

of commercial and industrial waste is the responsibility of the<br />

waste generator(s).<br />
