Transfer Stations. The operator would have to build one transfer station in each zone depending on the Project Area and volume of waste generated. Land would be provided by the ULB on lease for the duration of this concession. The transfer stations would be designed for all weather operations and would be environmentally compatible for proximity to inhabited localities. Therefore, these would have the following components:
Transfer Stations. A transfer station is a facility located near residential and commercial collection routes where solid waste is received from trucks and then transferred to and compacted in large, specially constructed containers for transportation to disposal sites. Fees at transfer stations are usually based on the type and volume or weight of the waste transferred and the transportation distance to the disposal site. At December 31, 2000, we operated approximately 300 transfer stations in North America. There are two main reasons for using transfer stations: - Their use reduces the costs associated with transporting waste to final disposal sites. This is because consolidating and compacting the waste increases the density of the waste, allowing more waste to be transported in one trip. The consolidation of the waste therefore also improves the use of collection personnel and equipment. - The use of transfer stations can also help us internalize disposal costs. Internalization means we are able to pay ourselves, rather than a third party, the fees charged to dispose of waste we picked up. This is because a greater percentage of the waste we collect can be efficiently disposed of at one of our own disposal sites, rather than having to use one owned by a third party.
Transfer Stations. The City of Varanasi does not have an engineered landfill or a treatment plant. The waste is presently being dumped on the bank of a tributary Varuna of River Ganges and partly on a private land. Both these sites are totally unsuitable for disposal of waste. Unfortunately, the city corporation has no land identified for setting up treatment or disposal facility. It is, therefore, exploring the possibility of involving private entrepreneurs taking up the task of treatment and disposal of waste on their own land and accordingly identified few parties having suitable lands at a distance of about 20Km from the city where the treatment and disposal facility is likely to be set up. As the distance of the treatment plant/disposal site is to exceed 15 km, it is not considered advisable to take all the waste in small vehicles and containers to the disposal site. For optimum utilization of the small vehicles and reducing the cost of transportation, it is necessary to set up at least two transfer stations for bulk transfer of waste from different parts of the city to the treatment/disposal site. The consultants have looked at various sites along with the municipal commissioner 58
