ISSUES AND OPTIONS: INFORMATION AT A GLANCE Practical Guidance for Busy People

GREAT!! Even more to read! Shelter experts know the key issues, but in an emergency others are called upon Not re-inventing the wheel Condensing key references into a readable and accessible format – matrices, checklists, diagrams, flow- charts Includes additional resources Partnership undertaking Integration into existing/planned training

Disaster Waste Massive problem in many disaster-related situations, post cyclone, earthquake, tsunami… No acceptance of recycled materials in reconstruction process Options for re-use linked to standards and market value Low awareness of value of waste materials and how value can be added Positive environmental aspects, e.g. avoid sand/ gravel mining

CONTENTS Nature of disasters Building waste generation Composition of building waste Priorities Re-use, recycling and disposal Access and transport Waste sorting Responsibility and legal issues Community involvement Appendices: waste processing flowchart; re-use and recycle potential; waste management plan References and websites

ASBESTOS Post-disaster response accelerates demand on asbestos Hazardous asbestos waste generated in post-tsunami response Little or no asbestos waste clean up initiated Sri Lanka’s tsunami reconstruction agency (RADA) endorsed the use of Chrysotile sheeting Indonesia: >20,000 tonnes of Chrysotile imported in price dumping General lack of awareness of asbestos – management, alternatives, disposal…

CONTENTS Key Facts Common uses Legislation and Guidelines Safer handling Breaking the cycle Recommendations Appendices: Standard labelling, alternative materials… References and websites

Building Waste: Training Module 9
