7.12 Local Engagement with GHG Emission Reduction in Domestic Solid Waste Sector

The roles and involvement of local governments in GHG emission reduction efforts for the domestic solid waste garbage sector are very signiicant, such as developing baselines, develop mitigation action proposals, implementing monitoring and reporting. The following paragraphs will explain the details of each phase.

7.12.1 Baseline Development

In this phase, DistrictCity Working Groups for the Garbage Sector coordinated by Sanitation Dinas and Public Works PU Dinas can develop DistrictCity level baselines. The results will be combined by Provincial Working Groups into provincial level baselines. Then the National Working Group, coordinated by Ministry of Public Works develops and combines provincial baselines into a National Baseline. In addition, the National Working Group is obliged to provide a capacity building program to Provincial and DistrictCity Working Groups to use a methodology for the calculation of waste-generated GHG emission to develop the baselines, for example from the IPCC guideline book by using assumptions of garbage pile growth and composition change based on a common agreement. The BAU Baseline is being developed, starting from year 2010 to year 2020.

7.12.2 Mitigation Action Proposal Development

The phases of mitigation action proposal development for the domestic garbage sector start from DistrictCity Working Groups that submit a list of proposals to Provincial Working Groups for combination into a provincial list of mitigation action proposals. The results are submitted by Bappeda to the National Working Group for garbage sector Bappenas for further selection into a list of national mitigation actions. Other information such as abatement cost for each mitigation action proposals, number of GHG emissions produced from mitigation actions must also be included.

7.12.3 Measurement, Reporting and Veriication

Provincial governments, namely Bappeda, are tasked with coordinating collecting mitigation action implementation reports conducted by implementing agencies in several DistrictsCities. Then the compiled reports are submitted to Bappenas. Guideline for Implementing Green House Gas Emission Reduction Action Plan 106 Implementing agenciesorganizations at the DistrictCity level are from both governmental and non-governmental elements such as Public Works Dinas, BPLHD Local Environmental Management Board, or business actors and related NGOs. In principle, they have such tasks as implementing mitigation actions, measuring and recording GHG emission reduction from each mitigation action done, recording the low of funds used, recording co-beneits or negative impacts if any and capacity and institutional building program. Results of the task implementation are reported to Bappeda. With respect to the tasks, process and reports on each mitigation action implementation done at the Provincial and also districtcity level are ready for veriication by an Independent Audit Agency.

7.13 Local Mitigation Action Proposals

By using information on Policies and Authorities owned by the regions in GHG emission reduction efforts and information on local mitigation scope, Provincial Governments can identify and make a list of mitigation action proposals for the sectors that can be implemented in the regions. Put more simply, the process starts from the scope deinition, i.e. sectors to be selected based on the results of analysis of local characteristics, potential and authorities. Then a list of mitigation action proposals is developed, consisting of key and supporting activities, which potentially reduce GHG emissions based on an analysis degree to which each action is appropriate see Chapter 4. The process for proposing, mitigation action is illustrated simply in Figure 29.
