Waste—system costings
(Question No 1900)
Ms Le Couteur asked the Minister for Territory and Municipal Services, upon notice, on 27 October 2011 (redirected to the Minister for Environment and Sustainable Development):
In relation to costings and assessment of waste system options, could the costings and other data, for example GHG emissions, that underpin the conclusions reached in the draft Waste Strategy in relation to organic and residual waste sources at page 17, be provided in the form of a single diagram or table, that includes capital infrastructure costings as well as costing and GHG gas emissions for collection/transport, for example self-haul.
Mr Corbell: The answer to the member’s question is as follows:
The URS and Eco Waste reports contained substantial data to inform consideration of future waste services and infrastructure options. They included data on capital and operating costs, GHG emissions, resource recovery rates, and total tonnes to landfill. The report summarised the results for 17 scenarios including a business as usual scenario.
The first report also considered the viability of the next generation of energy-from-waste technologies such as slow pyrolysis and gasification. These bioenergy technologies have the potential to generate renewable energy and sequester carbon.
The URS and Eco Waste reports were released in their entirety on my Directorate’s website on 8 December 2010.
Following extensive public consultation on the draft ACT Sustainable Waste Strategy 2010-2025 (draft waste strategy), the Directorate procured Hyder Consulting to evaluate a smaller set of scenarios. This report will help inform the Government’s understanding of the costs to ratepayers, along with the appropriate approaches to managing financial and technical risks under potential procurement options. The report of this consultation will also be made publicly available.
