Guam 2006 Integrated Solid Waste Management Plan

Abstract

By this document, the Guam Environmental Protection Agency (Guam EPA), with assistance from the Guam Department of Public Works (DPW), updates and revises Guam’s Integrated Solid Waste Management Plan, as mandated by Section 51103 of Title 10 of the Guam Code Annotated. Guam’s first Integrated Solid Waste Management Plan was developed for the Guam Environmental Protection Agency and approved by the Guam EPA Board in 1999. It was modified and adopted by the Guam Legislature on December 12, 2000. It called for major changes in solid waste management on Guam, including creation of a new legally conforming landfill and closing of the Ordot Dump.
