1.9 Brief Background on the Lagos State Waste Management Agency (LAWMA)
The
Lagos State Waste Management Agency (LAWMA) is a government of Lagos
State body responsible for managing waste generated in Lagos state
through a waste collection, transportation and disposal structure.
LAWMA's goal is to improve the environment with the impact of achieving
positive and significant change in living conditions regarding health
and sanitation. The Lagos State Refuse Disposal Board (LSRDB) was
instituted under Edict No. 9 of 1977, which was the first of its kind in
West Africa. The Board was given the responsibilities of environmental
sanitation and domestic refuse collection and disposal in Lagos State.
The Board was renamed the Lagos State Waste Management Authority via the
enactment of a new Law – Edict No. 55 of 1991, which conferred on the
Authority additional responsibilities for the collection and disposal of
municipal and industrial wastes as well as provision of commercial
waste services to the State and Local Governments of Lagos State.
The
Board metamorphosed over the years into the agency known today as the
Lagos Waste Management Authority (LAWMA) by virtue of the LAWMA Law
2007, and accrued added responsibilities ranging from management of
commercial, industrial, and medical waste streams, highway sanitation,
cleaning of drainage and other water bodies, to construction and
demolition waste management, among others. LAWMA works closely with the
Lagos State Ministry of Environment and has initiated reforms regarding
collection of waste bills and also aims to increase Waste recycling. In
2011, GMI awarded a grant to the LAWMA for studies evaluating the
feasibility of capturing landfill gas from the Abule Egba and Solous
Landfills.
