Detailed Narrative Description of Project

The Bank has financed solid waste projects in Dushanbe, Khujand, Kurgan-Tube and Tursun-Zade. The solid waste project in Dushanbe is nearing its physical completion. The Kurgan-Tyube and Tursun-Zade projects are in the implementation phase and the Bank is currently considering financing a USD 4 million solid waste project in Khorog. Seeking to address the urgent issue of poor sanitation in Tajikistan, the Bank is expanding its portfolio of solid waste projects in Tajikistan under a single solid waste framework. Yavan Solid Waste is part of this framework.

a. Provide the new equipment (waste collection bins, trucks, etc.) needed to improve the operating efficiency and technical capacity of the landfill as well as the waste collection/transportation services.

b. Fund civil works to rehabilitate the existing dumpsite or develop a new site.

c. Prepare a closure and monitoring plan for the existing dumpsite.

d. Introduce institutional and strategic changes in waste management aimed at boosting commercialization and achieving full cost recovery.

e. Assess the feasibility of a landfill gas recovery system; if proven feasible and economically viable, the landfill renovation will include the necessary infrastructure in preparation for a second investment programme to utilise landfill gas for energy production.
