40 Mg of waste were collected undercover in a warehouse in the
residential area Ampliación López Portillo in Jiutepec.
The warehouse which was previously closed by local authorities
was temporarily opened to remove the waste found there.
“The company responsible for the infraction will be sanctioned and
their good disposition to resolve the situation will be taken into
account” says the authority.
The warehouse owner declared that he had no knowledge of the
content found in the premises as he was told that only pet plastic
bottles being assembled in the warehouse.
The lack of waste prevention culture can be observed in the city
center were bags of garbage are left in public areas. People lack
education and respect for others.

The relationship between the local government and landowners is
difficult due to land use issues.
The privatization of the collection service in Cuernavaca was given to
one commissioner PACSA Group on April 4th 2007
48 hectares of land located in the community of San Anton is targeted for the construction of a new landfill. Operations are expected
to initiate in September 2007
PACSA commissioned a study of environmental impact to the University of the State of Morelos
The issues regarding land ownership in Morelos are complex. The
history has proven that it is particularly difficult to buy land from
communities
The project of the construction of the landfill is being complicated by
protests from neighboring communities who do not want to have a
landfill near their homes

Ravines and rivers are used as waste dumps due to poor waste
collection services and lack of environmental protection.
One of the most notorious environmental impacts occurred in 2004
when leachate from the sanitary waste deposit of Cuautla contaminated nearby irrigation canals and the Cuautla river.
3,000 landowners irrigate their land with water from the Cuautla
river.
The area adjacent to the river is also contaminated through sewage discharge from the proliferation of housing.
The declaration of the river Cuautla as an ecological zone is nothing more than words on paper.
Immediate action is needed to protect the area and this important
river which provides water to several communities in the region

In Mexico only 1 of 20 municipalities manages its waste adequately
95% of 2,445 municipalities fail in the collection and final treatment of their waste
The current environmental impact and state of public health due to the lack of proper
waste management is unknown
In Mexico recycling is going through a crisis
There is a lack of a nation wide precise inventory of hazardous waste. In several
states there are no infrastructure for the treatment of hazardous waste.
Waste collection and its final disposal remains some of Mexico City’s main headaches
53% of the waste produced is organic 28% are easily recoverable materials such as
paper, cardboard, glass plastic, cans and textile
Waste management’s regulatory framework lacks precision. Monitoring actions are
insufficient.

Interview summary No. 5
Street cleaning
Our work is limited. We rely on other people to handle to waste in the municipality. The personnel of
our department is constantly changing. We have 44 employees in our department at the moment.
There are 11 sweepers and 1 coordinator. We are working... let’s say... in a rudimentary way, with
traditional and ancient methods, with traditional wooden brooms and with a hand-cart for each
sweeper. In my opinion the equipment is not adequate. We want to modernize our service and it is
also necessary to make the service more efficient. We have requested the purchase of machines to
substitute the traditional way.
Sweeping activities take place exclusively in the first square of the municipality, the central area. It
covers 21 streets. We sweep 365 days. The sweepers start at 6:00 and finish at 13:00. This schedule is
due to the fact that the streets are less crowded at this time. After 12:00, sweeping is difficult.
The difficulties we face are when there are traditional and official festivities in the municipality. When
they occur we have to establish an emergency plan. We do this often because our municipality is full
of traditions, They are primarily of religious character. The volume of waste duplicates. I believe the
waste can augmented up to a 700% extra. We hire extra personnel to handle the waste and we buy
extra material. Our 11 sweepers are not sufficient.

There are areas were they is a higher volume of waste produced. We call them reunion centers. They
are the Zocalo, main plaza, the municipal market with their neighboring streets. We have seen that
more waste is dumped where at bus stations and also places or streets with low traffic and bad street
lighting.
People need to follow the rules that are established. People have loss their values. We have seen that
people now don’t clean their streets anymore. They only clean what is inside their property. It would
be appropriate for people to clean at least the side walk in front of their house in order to have their
street clean. People don’t care and leave those activities to the local authorities. The authorities can
not do everything, we need the participation of the community.
There is a need to stimulate our sweepers but we don’t have a program for that. We have sweepers
doing the same activity for 13, 15, 20 years. Not everyone has the ability to do this work. Our sweepers are not among the poorest of the community. They are people that have learn to value their work
Waste collection
I do not know precisely the volume of waste collected in the municipality. But there is a general estimation which is 250 tons of waste produced daily. This data is the product of a study that was made
by a company. The reality is different. There are approximately 35 waste trucks which have different
capacities. Some of them collect 4 tons others 3, others 2. Beside this study was realized 3 years ago, I
can imagine that the volume of waste produced could be superior to 250 tons daily.

At the moment we have 31 private contractors operating in Jiutepec. There is another group of 6
trucks which also provide the service. In total there are 37 private contractors. They exclusively collect household waste. We have another service that is operated directly by this department called special service. This service is provided to small businesses and large waste generators, such as markets,
manufacture industry, retail stores etc... This service is provided directly from the municipality. We
use 4 compactors.
We are precisely organizing the structure of the waste collection service because the previous government allowed private collectors to provide services to all types of generators. We are about to initiate a new program were small businesses will be served directly from the municipality. We want to
clean the current system and assure that each party comply with their duty as written in the current
regulatory framework. This is important the Federal Waste Management Act and the local regulatory
framework specifies that municipalities have the duty to collect and dispose of municipal solid waste.
Special waste like the one a mentioned before and waste from laboratories, from slaughterhouses and
the municipal market shall be handle by the state. Hazardous waste shall be under federal jurisdiction. We have to handle some of those waste because the state does not have the capacity to dispose
of all the waste produced in our municipality so we have to provide the service as well.
Private service providers pay a fee to the local government. The fee varies depending on the capacity
of the truck that they are operating. The ones who operate the open waste truck pay 575 Pesos
monthly. They are permisionarios. The one who operate the compactors which are government property pay 1000 Pesos per service, meaning for each filled compactor. They are concesionarios. The current structure is due to the lack of capacity of the local government to provide the service to the
community.

There are no competition between the private actors because different schedule and routes are assigned to each one of them. Their responsibilities are the same. There should not be a difference.
They have to follow the regulatory framework of the municipality. There is a guideline for service
providers which stipulate the conducted that all should maintain while providing the service. Furthermore there is a list of price located on each garbage truck which stipulates the price of the different waste bags according to the volume of waste. Local pays to waste collectors directly for each
waste bag they want to dispose of.
There are areas where the production of waste is higher than other areas. We try to distribute the
routes as fair as possible. Those sectors are residential areas known as condominiums. The fraccionamientos are not large waste generators, because most residents there only come on weekends.
Popular housing units are the ones who generate more waste. There are more people in a small
space. We have a problem there at the moment. The residents have different work schedule and
many are not at home during the schedule collection route. We are thinking of implementing another
shift in the afternoon. There are many popular housing here in Jiutepec.
The collectors dispose of the waste in a sanitary landfill in another municipality in Cuautla. This
municipality does not have its own sanitary landfill. Private actors must dispose of the waste in places
indicated by the municipality as stipulated in the guideline. In Jiutepec the municipality obligate
waste collectors to dispose of the waste in specific disposal sites. We have a big problem with illegal
merchandise which is dumped unlawfully in ravines and watersheds.
I believe that the solution to improve waste collection in Jiutepec is to change the type of collection
vehicles. The open trucks have the capacity to load 4 ton of waste. If we change those for compactors
the efficiency of collection service will improve.

One of the main complaint of waste collectors is related to the large driving distance to the final
waste disposal site. Private contractors spend therefor more money and time in transportation activities. Another issue it that some contractors do not respect the work jurisdiction of others .
Please take this note: The equipment used to collect waste and for street cleaning are not adequate in
Jiutepec. The waste collectors have no leachate catchment containers. Despite the fact that they look
brand new and they are freshly paint they don’t fit the necessary standard conditions to collect the
waste effectively. The hand-cart used by street cleaners are heavy and in poor conditions.

Interview summary No. 6
Street cleaning process
We are 8 sweepers. The waste that we collect in the morning from 6:00 am to 7:00 am is brought
here in the main church. A collection truck picks it up later. We take a breakfast break at 9:30 am and
our supervisor arrives around that time and gives us another street to clean. Sometimes someone
brings us to clean the streets of the town of Tejalpa. The city center needs to be clean and that’s our
primary task.
Few years back we did not have hand-cart. Now we each have one or two brooms and a hand cart.
Some of us use other means when our equipment is out of order. The number of street sweepers
need to increase in Jiutepec. Can you image 8 sweepers for a whole municipality? The municipality is
getting bigger, there are more streets to clean.
Everyday we fill around 2 or 3 waste bags. Some of us cannot carry much weight. When the waste is
wet it is heavier and more difficult to handle. There are areas where street cleaning is more difficult.
For example the Cuauhnahuac boulevard is difficult to clean, there is a lot of cars. People here drive
very fast. Busy streets are difficult to clean. For example streets such as Insurgentes, Zapata and Benito Juarez have heavy traffic flow and are particularly difficult. Also during the carnaval the amount
of waste increase and there is a lot to do. Many streets are badly light. This makes our work more
difficult and reduce the time during which we can clean the streets.
The people of Jiutepec lack knowledge in how to handle their waste. Many do not take into account
the work that we do. They see a street sweeper and think that they can bring their waste for disposal.
The women bring their waste outside and leave it in the street. Others wait when we are busy cleaning the streets and take advantage of the fact that we are sometimes away from our hand-cart and
quickly toss the garbage in our vehicle. People here do not take care for their environment. We clean
the streets everyday. On the next day it is dirty again. Sometimes it gets dirty a few hours after we
clean it.
