| dc.description.abstract | Disaster waste management guidance can too readily focus only on the techniques needed to manage the manifold problems presented. Disasters can vary greatly from one to another, and the waste management issues after disasters can also vary (Brown et al., 2011). The variation between events is so great that guidance manuals can be reduced to either broad general statements of the relevant topics, or else provide a series of case studies that are difficult to use in pre-disaster planning. Analysis of waste management after past disasters makes it clear that, in spite of the great differences between disasters, waste managers faced similar key decisions. Those decisions were influenced by common factors. There is a need for disaster waste management guidance that differentiates between likely situations and focuses on key decisions. | en |
