Abstract:
In recent years, there are increasing environmental issue due to the construction waste especially in Malaysia. Timber waste has covered two thirds percentage of the construction waste. Hence, potential on construction timber waste recycling to energy specifically in Malaysia under the states with solid waste managed by Solid Waste and Public Cleansing Corporation (SWCorp) is being studied. The research objectives are to investigate the improvement factors and current practices by the timber waste contractors in Malaysia. The study was conducted using a mixed method research approach to SWCorp officer, timber waste contractors and timber recycling center representatives to discover in depth the timber waste recycling to energy in Malaysia. The findings for the improvement factors from the current practices are authority enforcement, revenue from selling the timber waste, limitation of landfill spaces and public awareness. It is targeted that the research findings and recommendations will be useful for the waste authority, timber waste contractors and the public to reduce the timber waste being sent to landfill.

Abstract:
Eighty-five percent of Canadian forests are owned by the provinces; the balance is owned by the federal government (9%) and private individuals and corporations (6%). Provincial crown forests have traditionally been managed by the forest industry under long term agreements with the provinces, primarily to meet timber objectives. Recent trends towards forest management for both timber and non-timber values have led to greater public involvement in decision-marking. Canadians have input into management of all three forests indirectly via laws and regulations, and directly by public participation. A variety of processes for public involvement are underway. The cornerstones to success are: equitable representation; access to information; fair and open processes; and informed participants.

Abstract:
Abstract Twenty-six public agency tracts of timber were offered for sale in northern Minnesota through a sealed bidding process during Fall 2002. Each tract was set up and offered for sale both with and without the requirement to apply a specific set of timber-harvesting guidelines. Foresters who set up each tract recorded their time spent on a variety of timber sale preparation activities. On average, it took 57% longer to set up the timber sales when timber harvesting guidelines were incorporated into the sale design—an additional 20 min/ac over the time required to set up a timber sale when guidelines were not used. With an assumed opportunity cost of $20/h, the value of that additional timber sale set-up time averaged $6.80/ac. Several ideas are presented to reduce the additional time associated with incorporating guidelines into timber sales. They include both strategies applicable across all timber sales, as well as those that are site dependent.North. J. Appl. For. 22(3):175–180.

Abstract:
The paper assesses the effects of public innovation initiated by demands from communities in the northern Bolivian Amazon to revise forest regulations and policies. Bolivia enacted wide-reaching land and forest reforms in the mid-1990s, but these reforms were insufficient to tackle competing claims on forests and exclusion of local forest users from benefiting from timber production. Pressures by forest communities resulted in significant adjustments in regulations and policies, and the main driver was social pressure from communities as well as their representatives. The adjustments have allowed communal local practices, which were previously illegal, to become legal. They have allowed communities access to timber markets, improve incomes, and enhanced compliance with timber regulations.

Abstract:
Forest natural resources in Indonesia are one of the contributors to the fulfilment of human life and development capital. However, the use of forest resources without regard to aspects of sustainability will cause damage and even extinction of the forest. Therefore, green products today have become stronger demands from various groups. The procurement of goods/services within the government has been implementing a Sustainable Public Procurement that fulfils 3 (three) aspects, namely, economic, social and environmental interests. This paper observes Timber Legality Verification System policies in supporting the provision of green products for the forestry sector and Sustainable Public Procurement that will support the achievement of sustainable development. Timber Legality Verification System policy guarantees the provision of wood products by wood processing industry that contributes to realizing good forest governance to combat illegal logging and illegal trade, as well as support improvement in environmental quality. One strategy in fulfilling green products and implementing a Sustainable Public Procurement is to use timber products that have been certified with timber legality. The policy for the use of certified wood products needs to be supported by the implementation rules and information on the list of green products and technical guidelines for the procurement.

Abstract:
A significant number of building materials are based on wood. Wood competes with other materials and products for many building applications from structural framing to cladding. Wood appears to be preferable because of its aesthetic and structural properties, its versatility, economic cost and environmental benefits. However, timber wastage within the construction industry is incalculable. Waste occurs at all stages of the timber resource stream: procurement, conversion, installation, use, maintenance, dismantling and eventual disposal. Much of this loss can be avoided through eco-design strategies based on a better understanding of the total resource flows. This thesis addresses the ecological implications associated with the use and over-exploitation of timber in building construction. Applying bio-sensitive design principles and using a life cycle approach, the thesis examines ways of maximising timber resource yield through appropriate materials selection, design strategies and construction techniques to reduce their ecological footprint. Finally, an easy-to-use guide that incorporates economic and aesthetic-value criteria to the analysis is developed. The guide is aimed to offer a flexible decision-support tool that enables designers and other people involved in the construction industry to comprehend in a systematic way, the multiple dimensions interacting when selecting timber-building products. It is thus, intended to explore in practice the implications and trade-offs of state of the art timber products with the ultimate aim of integrating the ecological dimension to the decision-making process.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis presents an investigation of carbonyl sulphide as a new fumigant and related methodology studies. The first part involved the investigation of a new fumigant - carbonyl sulphide, which has the potential to replace methyl bromide. Its biological response or activity was investigated, e.g. toxicity to target organisms and phytotoxicity, environmental and worker safety considerations. In the second investigation, analytical methods were developed for the determination of fumigant movement through timber and fumigant residues in grains as well as a method of chemical fractionation to determine the fate of carbonyl sulphide. A comprehensive literature review of 161 references in these two areas is reported. Carbonyl sulphide was highly toxic to adults of three coleopteran species tested, namely Rhyzopertha dominica (F.), Tribolium confusum du Val, and Sitophilus oryzae (L.), the most sensitive species was R. dominica. For 6 hr exposure at 25�C, the L(CxT)95 value for R. dominica, S. oryzae and T. confusum were, respectively, 36.48, 99.82 and 113.0mg h L-1. Carbonyl sulphide inhibited 100% of mould in wet wheat and more than 90% of mould on dry wheat at lOOmg L-1. Both carbonyl sulphide and hydrogen cyanide were low in phytotoxicity without affecting germination of wheat, at levels needed to control insects. Unlike hydrogen cyanide, carbonyl sulphide can be used at minimum levels without decreasing plumule length of wheat. Chemical data on the sorption of carbonyl sulphide are compared with data from methyl bromide. The levels of carbonyl sulphide in the headspace of five commodities (wheat, barley, paddy, sorghum and peanut) and timbers (hardwood and softwood) decay more slowly than do levels of methyl bromide. Carbonyl sulphide was blown through a column of wheat as easily as was phosphine and more easily than was methyl bromide, and its front was blown out faster than phosphine and methyl bromide. Movement of two fumigants (methyl bromide and carbonyl sulphide) through, and sorption on, softwood and hardwood were studied. Each fumigant was sorbed less on softwood than on hardwood and penetrated softwood better than hardwood. Carbonyl sulphide penetrated timber better than did methyl bromide, and was less sorbed on timber. A rapid method of solvent extraction was developed to enable rapid estimation of the amount on intact fumigant sorbed in wood. This procedure enabled near quantitative recovery of methyl bromide as either intact fumigant or as bromide ion. Carbonyl sulphide residue in unfumigated wheat was found to be around 25- SOppb. Carbonyl sulphide left little residue on fumigated grains. Desorption of carbonyl sulphide from the wheat was extremely fast, 85% of it was released after one day aeration which was very much greater than that of methyl bromide and carbon disulphide. After 6 days aeration the incorporation of 14COS on mungbean, wheat, paddy, rice and safflower was lower than 7Oppb (calculated as COS equivalent). Food value or nutritional quality of foodstuffs is not harmed by carbonyl sulphide fumigation. This result was assessed by identifying any nonreversible change or combined residues in biochemical fractions of commodities including lipids, protein, amino acids, carbohydrate, etc., and no irreversible reaction between carbonyl sulphide and any constituent such as B vitamin, atocopherol, lysine, maltose and starch. Fumigants did not affect lipids, although each fumigant was applied to wheat at exaggerated concentrations, nor wheat germ oil and canola oil treated with extremely high concentration of fumigants. Factors which affect analysis of fumigants including stability of chemicals in extraction solvent and partitioning of fumigant between solvent and air, were examined. The partition ratio, defined as the fumigant concentration in extraction solvent to that in the headspace, varied with fumigant. Methods for multi-fumigant analysis were developed or modified and gave high recoveries and efficiency. The procedure of Daft of solvent extraction followed by partitioning was modified by being performed in sealed flasks. This raised the recovery of carbonyl sulphide, methyl bromide, phosphine and carbon disulphide. Recoveries were near quantitative at levels down to 6-16ppb (w/w) for tested fumigants. Thus the modified Daft method can be adapted to enable determination of the main fumigants used on staple foodstuffs. Microwave irradiation method give higher efficiency of removal of fumigants from grains. Limits of quantification were < 0.2ng g-1 (ppb w/w) for each tested fumigant. The detection limit of COS was calculated, as natural levels of the fumigant were detected in commodities. These are feasible, simple and rapid (< 2 min.) to be use to analyse fumigant residue in grains. Carbonyl sulphide has potential as a fumigant for grain and timber and may replace methyl bromide in some uses, subject to further investigation in commercial situations.

Abstract:
A travers cette thèse nous apportons un éclairage sociologique au débat engagé depuis des décennies sur la problématique de la mise en vente des bois publics. A ce titre, nous étudions, dans la première partie de la thèse, le système d’enchères qui reste encore le principal mode de vente utilisé par l’Office National des Forêts. Nous identifions les conditions d’encastrement de ces ventes, considérant que les comportements des participants sont déterminés par l’interaction complexe de facteurs économiques, socio-structuraux, politiques, cognitifs, institutionnels formels et informels. Nous montrons à cette occasion que l’intérêt accordé à l’enchère réside dans sa capacité à trouver collectivement un consensus sur la valeur et l’allocation des lots de bois. Dans la deuxième partie de la thèse, nous analysons l’évolution récente du cadre institutionnel appliqué aux ventes de bois publics en nous appuyant sur les notions de construction sociale des institutions et de dépendance au chemin. Nous y démontrons que, malgré le verrouillage institutionnel organisé autour de l’enchère pendant plusieurs siècles, le développement des contrats d’approvisionnement, à la suite des tempêtes de 1999 et de l’action concertée d’une partie de la filière bois, marque l’émergence d’un embranchement institutionnel en matière de vente de bois publics. La présentation des facteurs économiques et non économiques mis en avant par les partisans de chacun des deux modes de vente nous amène à conclure que la double trajectoire institutionnelle (enchères/contrats d’approvisionnement) devrait dans l’avenir permettre de répondre aux différentes problématiques d’approvisionnement propres à la filière bois
This thesis gives a sociological perspective on a debate that started more than thirty years ago, concerning the choice of methods for selling public timber. For this reason, the first part of the thesis focuses on the study of the auction system − the main selling method still used by the French National Forest Service. We have identified the conditions of the embeddedness of auctions, considering that during the exchanges actors are influenced by the complex interaction of economic, socio-structural, politic, cognitive, formal and informal institutional factors. We have shown that the point in using auctions has to do with its capacity to collectively find a consensus about the value and the distribution of timber lots. In the second part of the thesis, we have analyzed the recent evolution of the institutional framework applied to the public timber sales by leaning on the concepts of “the social construction of institutions” and “path dependence”. We have demonstrated that, despite the institutional lock-in that has been organized around the auction (since) for many centuries, the raise of supply contracts − due to the storms of 1999 and the planned action of a part of the timber industry − has indicated the outbreak of an institutional junction regarding the selling methods of public timber. After the presentation of the economic and non-economic factors underlined by the supporters of both selling methods we have concluded that in the future the double trajectory (auction/supply contracts) should be kept, since it should make it easier to find solutions to the various supply-related problems of the timber industry

Abstract:
In the United States, federal, state, and local forest policies affect many aspects of the forest industry. Regulations from all levels dictate how resource professionals manage the forest resources of the country. This study examines state and local regulatory relationships with a primary focus on local regulations in the Northeast, Mid-West, and western regions of the United States. A total of 388 local forestry ordinances were identified among the 35 states of the Northeast, Mid-West, and western regions of the United States. The Northeast contains the majority of local forest ordinances with 351. These ordinances are distributed among 8 states and many small local government types. The Mid-West currently embraces fewer local forest regulations with 16 ordinances across 4 states. In the West, 21 local forestry ordinances were found of which most are fostered by comprehensive forest practice acts. The primary objective of most local regulations in all regions is to regulate timber harvesting to some degree. The scope of the remaining local regulations; however, varied by region. The presence of local regulations has existed for over 30 years, and there are indications that they will have an even greater impact on forest management in the future. In addition, local regulations are steadily becoming more comprehensive in scope, which makes it difficult to determine their impacts. The cumulative impact of local regulation rests not only in the number of ordinances, but also in the area they govern, stringency of provisions, local resource conditions, and degree of enforcement.

Extractive activity is not always sustainable, since it is embedded in complex environmental and socioeconomic contexts. The extraction of mango fruit (Hancornia especiosa Gomes) is an activity of socioeconomic importance for Sergipe, however, it is argued that the current structure and interrelations developed in the marketing flow of mangaba in the state have negatively implicated in the sustainability of the productive chain of the fruit. In this sense, the thesis was developed in three axes - Public Policies, Production Chain and Sustainability - structured in three chapters in order to answer the research questions formulated: 1) Chapter 1 - Public policies for Brazilian forest management have led to a sustainable exploitation of non-timber forest products (NTFP), allowing to combine economic market growth with social justice and environmental protection?; 2) Chapter 2 - What are and how are the different stages of transformation and transfer of products from the mangaba and the actors involved in the state of Sergipe?; 3) Chapter 3 - What are the critical points related to the exploitation of mangaba in the state and how do these critical points reflect the sustainability of the productive chain? The methodology used for the data collection was the theoretical review and the data collection in the field through workshops and interviews, analyzed through the triangulation of data. The selection of the participants was done through non-probabilistic intentional sampling, with the aid of the "snowball" technique. The measurement of sustainability was done through the adaptation of the Matrix of Importance and Performance of Slack. Participating in the research were 57 extractivists, 15 non-extractive tradesmen, five middlemen, four landowners and five industries. It was concluded that: 1) Through existing public policies, the country does not have efficient mechanisms for the management of forestry extractive activity; therefore, it is necessary to restructure and create new mechanisms for protection and management of NTFP uses in Brazil; 2) A Mangaba Agroextractive Complex (CAEM) was identified in the state of Sergipe, composed of three productive chain structures with distinct production and marketing dynamics, which interrelate and demand different paths to strengthen the entire CAEM; 3) The sustainability of the mangaba productive chain in the state of Sergipe is compromised, according to the opinion of the different social actors involved. The results confirmed the hypothesis that the current structure and interrelations developed in the marketing flow of mangaba in the state of Sergipe have negatively implicated in the sustainability of the productive chain of the fruit. Thus, through these results, it is imperative that public policies involving the maintenance of mangabeira be built in partnership with society, ensuring adequacy to the reality of the different social actors involved in the fruit production chain in the state of Sergipe. These policies must be formulated to meet and comply with a territorial reality, encompassing other extractive products exploited in the state of Sergipe and region, with the objective of contributing to the sustainable use and valorization of socio-biodiversity, aiming at the long-term regional development.
A atividade extrativista nem sempre é sustentável, visto que está inserida em contextos ambientais e socioeconômicos complexos. O extrativismo do fruto da mangabeira (Hancornia especiosa Gomes) é uma atividade de importância socioeconômica para Sergipe, contudo, defende-se que a atual estrutura e inter-relações desenvolvidas no fluxo de comercialização da mangaba no estado têm implicado negativamente na sustentabilidade da cadeia produtiva do fruto. Neste sentido, a tese foi desenvolvida em três eixos - Políticas Públicas, Cadeia Produtiva e Sustentabilidade - estruturados em três capítulos de modo a responder às perguntas de pesquisa formuladas: 1) Capítulo 1 - As políticas públicas para a gestão florestal brasileira têm conduzido à uma exploração sustentável dos Produtos Florestais Não Madeireiros (PFNM), permitindo aliar o crescimento econômico de mercado com a justiça social e a proteção ambiental?; 2) Capítulo 2 - Quais são e como se caracterizam as diferentes etapas de transformação e transferência dos produtos oriundos da mangaba e os atores nelas envolvidos, no estado de Sergipe?; 3) Capítulo 3 - Quais são os pontos críticos relacionados à exploração da mangaba no estado e como estes pontos críticos refletem na sustentabilidade da cadeia produtiva fruto? A metodologia utilizada para a coleta de dados foi a revisão teórica e a coleta de dados em campo por meio de oficinas e entrevistas, analisados através da triangulação de dados. A seleção dos participantes se deu mediante amostragem intencional não probabilística, com o auxílio da técnica “bola de neve”. A mensuração da sustentabilidade foi feita por meio da adaptação da Matriz de Importância e Desempenho de Slack. Participaram da pesquisa 57 extrativistas, 15 feirantes não-extrativistas, cinco atravessadores, quatro proprietários de terra e cinco indústrias. Concluiu-se que: 1) Mediante as políticas públicas vigentes, o país não possui mecanismos eficientes de gestão da atividade extrativista florestal, assim, é necessário reestruturar e criar novos mecanismos de proteção e ordenamento dos usos dos PFNM no Brasil; 2) Foi identificado um Complexo Agroextrativista da Mangaba (CAEM) no estado de Sergipe, composto por três estruturas de cadeia produtiva com dinâmicas de produção e comercialização distintas, que se inter-relacionam e demandam diferentes caminhos para o fortalecimento de todo o CAEM; 3) A sustentabilidade da cadeia produtiva da mangaba no estado de Sergipe encontra-se comprometida, de acordo com a opinião dos diferentes atores sociais envolvidos. Os resultados confirmaram a hipótese de que que a atual estrutura e interrelações desenvolvidas no fluxo de comercialização da mangaba no estado de Sergipe têm implicado negativamente na sustentabilidade da cadeia produtiva do fruto. Assim, mediante estes resultados, afirma-se que é imperativo que políticas públicas que envolvam a conservação da mangabeira sejam construídas em parceria com a sociedade, garantindo adequação à realidade dos diferentes atores sociais envolvidos na cadeia produtiva do fruto no estado de Sergipe. Essas políticas devem ser formuladas para atender e enquadrar-se à uma realidade territorial, englobando os demais produtos extrativos explorados no estado de Sergipe e região, com o objetivo de contribuir para o uso sustentável e a valorização da sociobiodiversidade, visando ao desenvolvimento regional à longo prazo.

Abstract:
The area is located in the vicinity of the Brno reservoir, specifically from the shipping dock to the bay Rakovec. The project addresses the links between these two points by pedestrian, bicycle and wheel-promenade, which runs both on shore and on the water. The first part is the area of pedestrian zone with buildings in the form of waves, which offers various services such as restaurant equipment, information center and a music bar and more others. Buildings protrude from the terrain field and they are designed as a reinforced concrete structure with steel beams and their roofs are walkable. In addition, walking and biking trails continue along the shore and they are separated by terrain elevation. The complex of cultural, social and sports center is located in the ness of existing beach Kozí Horka. There is a proposed cultural center facilities, stage and auditorium, café & snack bar, showers and public toilets, first aid, bike rental and sports facilities. These functions are grouped into four objects solved as a timber (light wood frame, sandwich external walls with ventilated facade). The buildings are single-storey construction with a height of 4000 mm and wheelchair accessible. Stage and auditorium is solved afloat on circular piers mobile on rails. These piers conclude two buildings into the arc from the shore; their mass is hidden behind the structure of steel beams covered by wooden logs (driftwood) acting as waterfowl nest in the view from the shores. Pedestrian and bicycle promenade continues along the shore and is connected by the bridge to the yacht club.

The topic of my thesis is an architectural study of a multifunctional residental building located at Svitava river bank which is surrounded by streets named Masna, Krenova and Hladikova. The objective of the study is to design a building that would utilize the space effectively and restore its function. As a result of the study, my project is divided into three compounds with the inner being a semi-public space, linked to its sruroundings by many passages and two main boulevards. The three combounds are composed of one administration block which is four storeys and the other two compounds are five storeys high, with the ground and first floors being different facilities e.g. kindergarden, restaurant, bank ,café, clinics, library, gallery, shops and a senior center. From the third to the fifth floor there are designated housing apartments comprising of small economic flats. The building has a two-floor basement, with a supermarket, technical facilities and parking. The construction of the building is from monolithic reinforced concrete frame, with the horizontal structure composed of beamless slabs. The facade is designed by using a combination of two materials i.e. white plaster and timber cladding as horizontal panels.

Abstract:
Between 1969 and 1980 Edvard Radzinskii wrote three ‘historico-political’ plays which were later published as a trilogy entitled ‘Theatre of the Times …’. This thesis attempts to unravel the nature of time in the trilogy and invokes Mikhail Bakhtin’s notion about the forms of time and the chronotope in literary narratives to do that. Bakhtinian concept of the chronotope provides a suitable strategy for reading a trilogy that aims to re-present ‘real’ time, place and human beings. The concept also provides a vantage point from where the trilogy can be read both from within the time-space of its main protagonists and from that of its author, readers, performers and spectators. ¶ Both ‘Dialogues with Socrates' and 'Lunin …’ are structured around the chronotope of the prison which is associated with the chronotope of the acropolis in ‘Dialogues with Socrates’ and with the chronotope of the masked-ball in ‘Lunin …’. In ‘Theatre of the Times of Nero and Seneca’ the circus-theatre functions as the main chronotope. All these chronotopes serve as plot-constitutive devices and provide appropriate space in which the lives and times of the main protagonists can be adequately re-presented. However, the use of the concept of the chronotope in reading the trilogy does not imply that it can be read meaningfully only from within the time-space of its protagonists. The trilogy reconstructs the historical time-space but also engages in a substantial way with contemporary Soviet reality. This is achieved through an interaction between literary and real chronotopes. There is little doubt that most Soviet readers, performers and spectators negotiatied the chronotopes of the prison and the circus-theatre and the motifs of show-trial and execution from within their own time-space, their own historical experience. The thesis discusses a large number of reviews published in Soviet media to show that most critics read the trilogy from within the discourses about positive hero and socialist realism, because of which Socrates and Lunin were also turned into positive heroes. ¶ One of the most intriguing aspect of the three plays is the ‘play within a play’ structure which achieves its maximum potential in the final play of the trilogy where it is combined with the theme of metamorphoses and multiple role playing. The trilogy, like Pirandello’s trilogy about theatre, is able to foreground its own theatricality and explore the role of theatricality and role playing in and outside theatre. In ‘Theatre of the Times of Nero and Seneca’ the boundary between role playing in life and in theatre becomes so blurred that history begins to resemble the writing and staging of a play. ¶ Apart from exploring the nature of theatricality, the trilogy also questions the conventions of its genre. The three plays do not follow the conventional framing devices employed by dramatic texts and foreground the presence of a mediating narrator. This ‘novelisation’, is more evident in ‘Lunin …’ in which the frequent use of verbs in the past tense in the extra-dialogic text can be linked to the presence of a mediating narrator.

Abstract:
One of the most challenging aspects of buildings at present times is the process of merging thermal with environmental qualities in architecture. Therefore, to execute this process, it is necessary to have healthy and sustainable design strategies. One of the main problems in this joint strategy is providing efficiency, quality, and aesthetics within the buildings. Raising the question of this topic in the public buildings makes this issue even more complex and more emblematic. Before delivering a certain indoor quality of the structures, there is a tremendous necessity of proposing sustainable and efficient design approaches. Accordingly, in this text, wood buildings are taken into account. This research integrates sustainability and thermal aspects of public building design such as libraries. For that reason, the application of the results may find a place between various design methodologies to indicate thermal qualities.

Abstract:
Local roads (V class roads) and the bridges on them compose a significant part of the public road network in Latvia. On local roads are around 45% of all bridges located on the national road network. These are mostly reinforced concrete bridges with short or middle span lengths, with one or two traffic lines. Due to low traffic flow, these structures are used lover maintenance classes. The lover maintenance class also includes less de-icing salt in winter maintenance and less founds for maintenance works. At the same time, some of these bridges are located on routes used by heavy timber trucks or trucks taking sand from quarries. Also, agricultural machinery and local people cars are using these bridges for everyday needs. Therefore, the safe exploitation of these structures is essential. Due to different service conditions, the development of deteriorations also will be different. This paper aims to study the development of characteristic types of damages, its causes and consequences and impact on structural performance and service life.

Full text
Abstract:
When the current generation of U.S. waste-to-energy (WTE) facilities was developed during the 1980s and early 1990s, there were a large number of companies competing to design, build, operate and maintain them under a long term contract. Over the years, almost all of these firms have left the WTE business for a variety of reasons leaving essentially only two U.S. firms actively competing for renewed operating and maintenance (O&M) contracts for publicly owned WTE facilities. This consolidation has significantly reduced the level of competition for public owners who are interested in rebidding their WTE O&M contracts at the end of their initial or extended terms and, as a result, has the potential to increase the cost of service. Consolidation has likewise reduced the level of competition for potential new WTE projects in the U.S. This paper reviews the history of public sector operation of WTE facilities in the U.S., the unique challenges presented by public operation and whether it is time for more public owners to consider this alternative for existing WTE facilities in light of the lack of competition by private operating companies. Perceived risks and impediments to public operation of WTE facilities and suggestions on how to overcome them are presented as well as the benefits and opportunities available to public owners. The keys to a successful public WTE operating venture are also discussed based on the experiences of ecomaine, a consortium of 21 member municipalities in southern Maine that have operated and maintained their own 550 ton per day (tpd) WTE facility for more than 20 years. Public versus private operating practices for European WTE facilities are also explored as well as public ownership and operation of new WTE facilities including those based on alternative or emerging technologies.
