Document Details:
Solid waste management has traditionally been a distinctly municipal responsibility in Nepal. The in-effective governance of the authorities responsible for solid waste management has led to the presence of significant amounts of unmanaged waste in cities around the country. Rapid and unplanned urban growth has exerted tremendous pressure on the urban environment and solid waste is visibly the worst environmental problem in many urban areas in the country.
