consecutive assessment years out of the first twenty years of the project

PPPs (Public–Private Partnerships) in solid waste management in
India are involved in waste collection, transportation, and treatment.
As may be known, a PPP is a contract between a public sector
authority and a private party which is funded and operated by both
the parties, and in which the private party provides a public service or
project and assumes substantial financial, technical, and operational
risk in the project. Table 2.25 showcases the scope of activities and
implementation frameworks that are prevalent in the MSWM space.
The role of the private sector in municipal solid waste management
is taking off rapidly in the country. Metro cities like Chennai,
Hyderabad, etc., were the first to witness large-scale private sector
participation sometime during the mid-1990s. During the late 1990s, the
urban local bodies (ULBs) gradually realised the need for processing/
recycling solid waste to reduce the burden on landfills. Along with
this, came the notification of MSW Rules (Management and Handling),
2000, that made waste processing and development of sanitary landfill
mandatory. There was an increased involvement of private operators
during the mid-2000s driven mainly due to technical, financial, and
managerial constraints at the ULBs.
It has been observed that since the late 1990s, the private sector
is eager to invest and manage projects on primary collection and
transportation, which was earlier limited to only local contractors.
A few integrated projects have also been successfully developed on
PPP formats including integrated processing and disposal in the cities
of Coimbatore, Bengaluru, Chennai, Delhi, Kolkata, and Ahmedabad.
Integrated MSWM systems for the entire value chain, provided by
a single private operator, have come up in the cities of Guwahati
(Box 2.9) and Hyderabad.
