In India, the management of wet waste in residential societies involves a combination of legal frameworks, municipal regulations, and best practices. Here are the key wet waste management in societies rules:

  • Solid Waste Management Rules, 2016: The central government created these regulations. It requires efficient wet waste management and waste segregation at the source. All residential societies and local entities must follow these regulations.

  • Source Segregation: According to the regulations, trash must be divided into two categories: non-biodegradable (dry) and biodegradable (wet). Residents are required by law to follow this segregation.

  • Implementing waste management systems, which include routinely collecting wet trash and supplying the required infrastructure, including bins and composting facilities, is the responsibility of local municipal organisations.

  • Many housing societies draft specific by-laws based on municipal regulations that outline how residents should manage wet waste. These by-laws typically include:

  • Designated disposal methods and schedules.

  • Specifications for bins and containers.

  • Procedures for composting or collection of wet waste.

  • Some local bodies encourage or mandate societies to implement composting facilities to handle wet waste on site. This reduces the overall volume of waste sent to landfills.

  • Societies are urged to hold awareness campaigns to inform citizens about garbage disposal and segregation practices.

  • Societies may be required to maintain records of waste management practices and report to local authorities on the volume of waste collected and processed.

  • Some societies partner with non-governmental organisations (NGOs) or waste management firms to ensure proper handling of wet waste, in line with legal requirements.

I hope you found this information helpful.

Hello Sunny, I can help you by answering what are the society rules for wet waste in India. The government has stated that biodegradable waste must be processed on-site through composting or bio-methanation to the extent to which it is possible. 

The segregation and processing of wet waste is a must and hefty fines are imposed for not following the guidelines as stated. I hope this helps in answering your questions.
