Discarded ghost nets and disposed off fishing nets in the sea are a growing problem in coastal areas. They result in the deaths of numerous wild marine species and studies have shown that they can hamper fish stocks over time, especially in areas under intense fishing pressure, it said in a release.

“We hope the Fisheries Department takes cognisance of this growing issue and establishes proper disposal systems for fishing nets going forward,” it said.

Bio-mining proposal awaits govt. approval

Bio-mining is a process involving digging out previously dumped or disposed of material from landfill sites to recover plastic, metal, glass, combustibles, other fine material and soil. Plastic, metals and other material thus recovered can be sent for re-cycling. The bio-degradable waste in a landfill site gets decomposed. When non-biodegradable material in the same site are recovered and sent for re-cycling, the land under them can be reclaimed for further use. With this, there is no need to scout for more land for dumping municipal solid waste.

Bio-mining is estimated to cost about Rs. 17 crore, the Commissioner said.

The dumped solid waste spread over 25 acres, including the 13.5 acres of private land, in Pachchanady is estimated to be six lakh tonnes. Once bio-mining is taken up, it is expected to come down to 2.4 lakh tonnes as the refuse derived fuel (RDF) material (such as plastic recovered) in the site are estimated at 40 %, he said.

The Rs. 17 crore cost estimated excludes the transportation of the recovered material in bales. Bales of plastic recovered will have to be transported to cement industries which are at least 700 km away from Mangaluru. It required an additional fund, he said.

Dakshina Kannada's first DWCC to become functional in Ullal on Gandhi Jayanti
Dakshina Kannada’s first Dry Waste Collection Centre in Ullal

Ullal generates over 18 tonnes of waste per day out of which about 4-5 tonnes is dry waste

The DWCC project has been developed by Hasiru Dala and APD Foundation after working with Ullal CMC for over 10 months and understanding the current Solid Waste Management (SWM) at Ullal.

A survey was done to determine the number of waste pickers in Ullal. Waste picker identity cards were issued to them. These waste pickers will be operating the DWCC centre.

The collected dry waste will be sent to the recyclers. The waste pickers and the operator will get their earnings from the revenue generated from the sale of recyclable waste. The surplus generated will be reinvested for expansion of the facility.

Corpn. to stop collecting waste from people if segregation is not done

Wet and sanitary waste will be collected daily and dry waste will be collected only on Fridays. Wet waste should not be handed over in plastic bags. It should be given in a small bin directly to the solid waste collectors.

The Commissioner said that all traders should henceforth display a board in front of their establishments that they are not selling and using banned plastic material. They should keep green colour bins for wet waste and blue colour bins for dry waste. If not, the civic body will take steps to cancel their trade licence or it will not collect waste from them.
