Item Environmental and social code of practice : construction of a mechanical composting building at the existing IWRMC at Magoodhoo, Faafu Atoll(Land and Marine Environmental Resource Group, 2021-01) Zahir, Hussein; A. Sattar, Shahaama; Abdulla, Aishath; Musthag, Azim; ހުސެން ޒާހިރު; ޝަހާމާ އ.ސައްތާރު; ޢާއިޝަތު ޢަބްދުﷲ; މުސްތާގް އާޒިމްMagoodhoo is one of the 5 inhabited islands of Faafu Atoll and is located on the southeastern side of the peripheral reef of the atoll. Construction work of the Island Waste Management Centre (IWMC) of Magoodhoo was commenced in 3rd quarter of 2018. However, due to non-performance issues of the contractor, the contract was terminated in 2019 with 95% being completed. Currently the center is not used yet, and waste is collected and managed at the open area adjacent to the site. Initially planned operations for the IWMC involved sorting of the collected waste which had already been segregated at household level into compostable and non-compostable waste. The non-compostable inorganic waste would be compacted / crushed / shredded. The compostable waste would be transferred to the compost slab constructed at the site, where windrows-based composting will be undertaken. However, based on the recommendations provided in feasibility study for the establishment of a regional solid waste management system in Zone 4 & 5, it was decided that mechanical composting is the most feasible technology for treating organic waste generated in F. Magoodhoo. Hence, the Ministry of Environment, through the World Bank funded Maldives Clean Environment Project (MCEP) intends to pilot in-vessel composting, whereby the existing compost slab will be modified slightly to cater for the installation of a composting machine. The proposed project involves enclosure of the existing compost slab area and undertaking the required utility connections to the structure. Once this is completed, an organic waste converter machine will be installed at the area to undertake mechanical composting of organic waste through an aerobic system.Item Environmental and social impact assessment report : upgrading of infrastructure at regional waste management facility zone II, Raa.

Similar to almostall island of Maldives, the island is vulnerable to environmental and economic development variables such as rising sea level, coastal erosion, pollution/depletion of groundwater andunmanaged waste. A waste management centre was constructed at the northeastern side of the island, through the UNDP LECReD Project and waste disposal is at this site. The council has also now established a waste collection service from all households and institutions. All waste including the household waste is disposed at this site, although kitchen waste is disposed to sea on that side of the island. However, the centre does not have any machinery and equipment for management of inorganic waste and all waste which can be burnt are disposed through open burning at the site. Hence, the Ministry of Environment, being the proponent of the project, through the World Bank funded Maldives Clean Environment Project (MCEP), intends to establish a full- fledged Island Waste Resource Management Centre (IWRMC) and facilitate piloting of in-vessel composting in Gan based on the findings of the technical and financial feasibility study for establishing a regional solid waste management system in Zone 4 & 5, phase 1 of which was completed in the last quarter of 2019. The project will include construction of new infrastructure inclusive of a mechanical composting area. Once the infrastructure is in place, an Organic Waste Converter (OWC) machine will be set up at the facility to facilitate mechanical composting of the waste using aerobic technology. Upon completion of the project, the operations of the facility will be handed over to the Island Council. Training needs for the proper operation of the facility will be identified through the assessment and will also be incorporated into the report.Item Environmental and social management plan : establishment of island waste resource management centre with aerobic technology using composting machine at Guraidhoo, Thaa Atoll(Land and Marine Environmental Resource Group, 2021-05) Zahir, Hussein; A.

Similar to almost all island of Maldives, the island is vulnerable to environmental and economic development variables such as rising sea level, coastal erosion, pollution/depletion of groundwater and unmanaged waste. At present waste is being disposed to a site on the southern side of the island (on reclaimed land area). Management of the site and cleaning of public areas have been contracted out to an individual party. All waste except kitchen waste is disposed at the area and burnt. Kitchen waste is disposed at the shoreline around the island. Hence, the Ministry of Environment, being the proponent of the project, through the World Bank funded Maldives Clean Environment Project (MCEP), intends to establish a full-fledged Island Waste Resource Management Centre (IWRMC) and facilitate piloting of in-vessel composting in Guraidhoo based on the findings of the technical and financial feasibility study for establishing a regional solid waste management system in Zone 4 & 5, phase 1 of which was completed in the last quarter of 2019.
