Integrated Waste Management Plan
As part of the IWMP development process, section 13 of the Waste Act requires the development of annual performance reports and it must be noted that this happens outside the actual IWMP development process. Section states that annual performance report must be prepared in terms of section and must contain information on the implementation of the municipal IWMP, including the information set out in paragraph (a) to (j) of subsection (2) insofar as it relates to the performance of the municipality.
An IWMP toolkit was developed to assist municipalities to compile their IWMP’s.
