4 Similarities Restafval = Restavfall

5 Figures inhabitants on an area of km² 393 municipalities low-lying country, with about 20% of its area and 21% of its population located below sea level 17th largest economy of the world Open economy, which depends heavily on foreign trade

9 Municipal Partnership Servicing only municipalities Shareholder 100% public Principal (SLA) Municipalities 23 Total households Apr. Citizens Turnover 2017 ca. 76 mln. EAT 2017 ca. 7 mln. Employees 350 Collected waste 400Kton

10 Dutch Waste 60 billion kilo Residual Waste Commercial & Industrial Waste 500 kilo per person / year 8,5 billion kilo (Ca.. 15%)

11 Waste legislation Distinction between industrial and household waste Municipal tax per household, covers collection and processing costs Municipality is responsible - free in choosing waste collection methods Separate collection of organic & garden waste and residual waste; paper and cardboard, glass, plastic packaging, WEEE, hazardous waste and bulky waste Municipalities obliged to have a Municipal Recycling Centre

12 Making policy Waste triangle Policy

13 National Goals VANG (From waste to Resources) 2020: >75% recycling < 100 kg residual waste per person 2025: > 90 % recycling < 30 kg residual waste per person

14 Lansink s ladder Waste hierarchy

16 Oost Gelre 2017 Kilogram per resident Oost Gelre Average NL Residual waste Bulky waste 9 27 Organic waste Garden waste 5 33 Paper Glass Plastics and dry material Textile 1 4 Chemical Waste 1 1 Diapers 10 0 Total

17 Traditional Waste System Every other week residual and organic waste collection Paper collection by clubs and society No collection of plastics Municipalities have their own cific amenity site

18 PAYT The Beginning ROVA wants to contribute to climate policy and sustainable development. Collaboration between ROVA and Municipalities Therefore stared in 1998 introduction of PAYT-system. The introduction of PAYT has lead to a cut of 20% on the cost of household waste collection and generated a residual waste reduction of 25%. However, since 2008 a stabilization of this decrease was observed.

19 Kg per household / year Effect PAYT-system residual waste Years before and after implementation of PAYT Bandwidth highest and lowest value Average value

20 Compilation of residual waste 2011 (kg/household) Organic waste (54 kg) Plastics (14 kg) Paper (16 kg) Other recyclables (59 kg) O.g. packagings of drinks 5 kg, glas 7 kg, textile 5 kg, metals 6 kg, wood 4 kg. Real residual waste (38 kg)

21 How to force another drop PAYT Conversed Collection

22 2012: Conversed collection (service) Focus on collection of recyclables instead of waste Higher service on recyclables (paper, plastic and organickerbside collection) Lower service on waste (residual waste is no longer kerbside collected but has to be taken to drop-off facilities) Aim: From 200kg/resident 100 kg/resident/year

23 Phase 1 Start zero rate organic-waste Collection 1 time every 2 weeks Collection 1 time every 4 weeks Optional collection paper

24 Phase ltr. plastic container Collection 1 time every 4 weeks starting together with beverage cartons en cans residual waste no longer kerbside collected but brought to drop-off facilities

25 Schematically summarized 11 containers residual waste per household per year Organic Paper Plastic & dry recyclables Waste prevention Bring away remaining waste

26 Production of residual waste per person

27 300 But what will this cost? Best of both worlds More sustainability at a lower price

28 Financial Instruments Service Impulse Carrot or the stick? Reduction on solid waste tax Collection of recyclables at home Increase solid waste tax Disposal of residual waste at central points

29 Conversed Collection Behaviour Awareness??? Tour ROVA site

30 Rik Hardenberg

31 Questions What are the possible opportunities of PAYT, Conversed Collection and VANG in Norway? What are the possible threats of PAYT, Conversed Collection and VANG in Norway?
