Rapid urbanisation and
urban growth is resulting in the generation of increasing amounts of solid and liquid
hazardous and non- hazardous waste. These wastes require land-filling, incineration or
treatment in the metropole and consequently cause air and water pollution as well as
posing a health risk. Of the waste being generated in the CMA, the largest percentage is
domestic waste from municipalities.
Note that domestic waste collection services are addressed in Infrastructure.
