Solid Waste Management Improvement Project for Regional and Metropolitan Cities

(P127134)

English Summary Sheet for the Bahasa Indonesia Environmental Impact Assessment

Report

City of Manado Landfill - TPA Sumompo

Background

1. The attached report is the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) for the City of Manado’s

Landfill. The landfill known as TPA Sumompo is located in Tuminting district approximately 5km

northeast from the city centre. The Sumompo landfill site is approximately 7.5ha in area has

been in operation since 1976. The landfill has been operating continuously since this time, but is

now nearing saturation.

2. The EIA report was prepared by the City of Manado in 2012 and approved by the national environmental agency in November 24, 2011.

3. TPA Sumompo is one of the project sites for the Indonesia Solid Waste Management Improvement Project for Regional and Metropolitan Cities (the project, P127134) and the attached EIA

Report provides initial baseline and critical design information for this site. Therefore, the attached EIA

report is one of the documents in a package of safeguards documents, used to appraise the project.

4. The attached EIA report covers the environmental impacts and the intended management practice

at the time rehabilitation works on TPA Sumompo was being planned.

5. The main environmental concerns on TPA Sumompo are: (i) levels of leachate treatment at the

landfills and the effluent is in non-compliance with the Indonesian wastewater discharge standards for their respective receiving waters; (ii) possible groundwater pollution due to poor facilities’ design and

inadequate/lack of equipment (aerators, insufficient filter capacity, leaking pipes that discharge near a

stream at the landfill boundary rather than into the treatment works), improper solid waste and leachate

containment (e.g. no liner and drainage system), having poor site protection and achieving limited treatment; and (iii) air pollution due to odor and to lack of proper landfill gas management system, thus,

enhancing GHGs generation during the decomposition of waste, which are released to the atmosphere.

Further, there are overall EH&S concerns at the transfer stations and intermediate treatment facilities for operators, waste pickers and other citizens living in the vicinity, as there is lack of standard operating

procedures for the entire SWM system and no public awareness on EHS aspects (e.g., staff are not

wearing safety gear).

6. An Environmental Audit is being prepared to review the current status of TPA Sumompo.

7. An Addendum to the attached EIA is also being prepared that will specifically address the project related impacts and management plans.

8. A project wide Resettlement Policy Framework (RPF), site specific Social Assessments and site specific Resettlement Action Plans (RAPs) are also being prepared also to specifically address the project

needs.

Project Information

10. The Project Development Objective (PDO) is to support improvements to solid waste

management systems and services to residents, in the participating cities through selective interventions in

waste minimization, separation, treatment and disposal.

11. The direct beneficiaries would be the governments of the four cities, Balikpapan, Manado,

Tangerang and Sekber Kartamantul2 that are participating in the project, particularly the agencies

responsible for solid waste management in each city

12. More broadly, the ultimate beneficiaries would be the residents of these cities who will receive

much improved solid waste services. These include the poor, in whose communities these facilities are mostly hosted and who are often the ones working and earning a living from this sector.

13. The PDO will be achieved through the implementation of the following project components.

14. Component A: Improvements in Solid Waste Management Systems ($110m), these funds

would be on-granted to the participating municipalities and would finance the following sub-component

activities:

15. Sub-Component A1 - Landfill Sites - the re-engineering to optimize disposal and/or

rehabilitation and/or closure of existing landfill/disposal sites, construction of new state of the art sanitary landfill cells within the existing landfill area (equipped with leachate treatment plants, heavy equipment

such as compactors and bulldozers, facilities for staff/operator).

16. Sub-Component A2 - Intermediate Treatment Facilities – these could be on landfill sites or at intermediate/transfer sites. Financing would be for waste treatment systems (such as Material Recovery

Facilities (MRF), composting plants, anaerobic digesters, landfill gas to energy/flaring plants, refuse

derived fuels (RDF) and or other treatment systems as appropriate) and transfer stations.

17. Sub-Component A3 - 3Rs Systems - The 3R approach (reduce, reuse, recycle) will be

incorporated in the design and infrastructure works to minimize waste generation rates at the household

level and local markets, and subsequently lowering collection, transfer and disposal costs, and extending the life of the landfills. The 3R’s approach is based on a Waste Bank ( Bank Sampah) methodology

providing direct services to the poor This sub-component will finance activities to further strengthen and

increase coverage of this approach in participating local governments, particularly in the poor areas of the participating cities. A Results-Based Financing (RBF) mechanism is also being designed and integrated

into this sub-component to incentivize achievement for higher performance of this 3R’s approach. The

RBF scheme will provide incentive payments retroactively to encourage waste diversion from landfills, and so will extend the life of the landfill, and will encourage recycling and reuse of waste.

18. Component B: Implementation Support and Advisory Services ($30m). This component is

expected to be co-financed by donor grants. The GoI has agreed to request support from SECO3 to

finance this component.

2 Sekber Kartamantul - is the joint administration for the regional facility, shared by the City of Yogyakarta, and the

Regencies of Sleman and Bantul.

.

19. Sub-Component B1 – Implementation Support ($27.5m) - will (i) finance detailed

Engineering Designs (DED’s) as needed, the technical assistance and support required to implement the project, and to put in place a strengthened institutional framework required for a more sustainable

operations and maintenance system going forward, (ii) provide support to establish a country-wide

carbon/climate finance activity for the solid waste management sector as a whole to coordinate market-

based carbon revenue generation opportunities, and (iii) include funding for setting up a publically accessible information based National Solid Waste Benchmarking System (NSWBS).

20. Sub-Component B2 – Management Systems ($2.5m) will finance information based management systems in each participating city.

21. Component C: Social Development Component ($5m). This component will address the social needs of waste pickers and affected host community members, including owners of livestock. Challenges

related to resettlement/land acquisition and the potential loss of livelihood for waste pickers and livestock

owners will be comprehensively addressed to help improve their social development outcomes. This

component will not finance any physical investments or works associated with landfill workers or livestock, as these need to be integrated into the landfill operations as a whole and are thus included in

Component A. This component will finance training, continuous consultations with affected households,

participatory activities and potentially a fund to address major social concerns during project implementation. As with Component B, this component is also expected to be co-financed by the same

donor grants.

23. Project Specific Environmental and Social Safeguards Issues – The project triggers the

following World Bank safeguards policies;

Environmental Assessment OP4.01

Involuntary Resettlement OP4.12.

24. Consistent with the requirements of OP4.01, the project has been assigned an EA Category A

25. The project is expected to have important significant positive environmental impacts in

the participating cities as investments to improve waste collection, transportation and disposal

infrastructure are made, as the institutions that provide and regulate this service are reformed and

the quality of this service begins to improve overtime. These positive impacts will gradually

begin to occur as coverage and collection rates increase, improvements to landfill operations are

realized especially from the introduction of sanitary conditions and better functioning leachate

treatment systems that comply with best practice effluent standards, and larger waste volumes

are treated through appropriate technological solutions.

26. These improvements in the service and the associated positive impacts will ultimately

lower the public health risk profile of the cities and may possibly begin to halt and even begin to

reverse the environmental damage that has been the legacy of the sector for too long in these

participating cities. Public awareness among city residents about the importance of proper waste

separation, recycling and disposal will be required for these benefits to be realized.

27. Notwithstanding, the proposed project will have adverse environmental impacts arising

primarily during the construction stage (Component A) when activities such as, (i) upgrading

existing sanitary landfills through rehabilitation of leachate treatment systems and waste

treatment plants (e.g., anaerobic digesters, RDF) and (ii) excavations of old waste and

construction of new sanitary cells including installation of landfill gas collection within the same

premises are going on. These construction activities may led to the temporary air, land and water

(surface and ground) pollution as potentially harmful substances are moved around and released,

especially as most of these landfill sites have suffered years of environmental pollution.

28. Environmental concerns will also arise during the operations and maintenance stage,

albeit far less severe that during the construction stage. While most of these impacts are expected

to be contained within and around the sites where they occur, some impacts, such as air pollution

impacts could be more widespread.

29. Involuntary Resettlement: Land acquisition and/or physical resettlement may be

necessary for some investments related to the expansion of collection sites.

30. Impacts on Livelihoods: Project interventions including landfill engineering, expansion

and intermediate treatment facilities (ITF) will potentially have negative livelihood implications

for waste pickers, small-scale buyers and host communities.
