<p>O estudo se propôs a caracterizar quantitativa e qualitativamente a atuação dos conselhos gestores de políticas públicas ligadas ao saneamento, no que tange ao manejo de resíduos sólidos e de águas pluviais, no município de Belém. Foram contatados 16 conselhos, com o fim de obter atas e resoluções que abordassem os temas de interesse, objetivando identificar: 1) quais conselhos, no âmbito da relação do saneamento com a saúde, o ambiente e o desenvolvimento urbano, têm pautas relacionadas aos dois temas em estudo; 2) quais conteúdos específicos são tratados nessas pautas; e 3) as consequências dessas pautas quanto à produção de Resoluções, Moções, etc. que formalizem e materializem a atuação dos conselhos que as produziram. Após a leitura crítica das atas e resoluções, os resultados obtidos revelaram que nenhum conselho contatado controla o serviço de manejo de águas pluviais em Belém, uma vez que este tema não foi tratado em nenhuma das atas consultadas dos conselhos participantes do estudo. O controle sobre o serviço de manejo de resíduos sólidos somente foi exercido em uma única abordagem por um conselho estadual, uma vez que os conselhos municipais contatados permaneceram ausentes dessa discussão.</p><p> </p><p align="center">SOLID WASTE AND RAINWATER MANAGEMENT: LACK OF SOCIAL CONTROL IN BELÉM OF PARÁ</p><p>The study aimed to characterize quantitatively and qualitatively the performance of public policy management councils related to sanitation, with regard to the management of solid waste and the management of rainwater, in the municipality of Belém. 16 councils were contacted in order to obtain minutes and resolutions that addresses the topics of interest to: 1) identify which councils, within the scope of the relationship between sanitation and health, the environment and urban development, have guidelines related to the two themes under study; 2) identify which specific contents are covered in these guidelines; 3) to identify the consequences of these guidelines regarding the production of Resolutions, Motions, etc., that formalize and materialize the performance of the councils that produced them. After a critical reading of the minutes and resolutions, the results obtained reveal that no council contacted controls the rainwater management service in Belém, since this topic was not addressed in any of the consulted minutes of the three municipal councils participating in the study. The control over the solid waste management service was only exercised in a single approach and by a state council, since the municipal councils contacted remained absent from this discussion.</p>

Driven by economic development, population growth, change in life style, and consumption patterns, Cambodia is faced with equally rapid increase of solid waste, with MSW disposal amount attaining 1,709,379 tons/year in 2018. Various policy instruments and legislations have been developed over the years in response to this long-existing crisis, which effectively translated into tangible improvements on the ground. But municipalities continue to suffer from weak waste management system including collection, transportation, treatment, and disposal. Resource recovery almost entirely depends on informal sector while efforts for reduce and reuse are still weak, while presenting vast opportunity if effective policies are employed and implemented. The ongoing governance reform involving functional decentralization of waste management service is being implemented although at a slow pace.

At the Leicester urban history conference in 1966 there was very little discussion of the relationship between public policy and urban history. There were some points at which linkages were implied, but these arose merely incidentally. There was no attempt to adopt public policy as a general perspective on urban development. Reciprocally, the planners paid no attention to the historians: Jim Dyos remarked that the largest part of ‘research and policy making is taking place without reference to the historians’. The picture has not greatly changed over the past 14 years. There have indeed been studies in which policy, its formation and limitations, have been implicit, but few in which they have played a central part.

Kampala is a government seat and the capital city of Uganda. Kampala has been referred to as an executive slum due to its breakdown in service delivery. Currently the city is facing increased population growth, increased demand for services, changing consumptions, rising income which has caused urbanization that resulted into increased solid waste generated. While Kampala has a lot of challenges i.e., garbage, potholes, sewer service, construction, traffic management, corruption, health services, environment, stray livestock and management of markets. The main objective of this papers was to investigate service delivery during the recentralization of the city in line with garbage tonnage. Secondary data from Lubaga division used with content analysis to analysis the collected data. Results indicated that a small number of trips and fuel consumption in December compared to October and November 2016. The fall in trend of garbage collected could be as a result of some measures like burning which are adopted by some households in Rubaga division. It is also believed that some KCCA garbage vehicles remain on the road sides and this would make it hard for some people who are far from the road to bring their garbage.

Resumo: Esse artigo analisa o processo de gênese da noção de proteção ambiental como uma das principais diretrizes da ação governamental na administração e gestão dos resíduos sólidos. Tomando como referencial empírico a implantação do programa de Coleta Seletiva em Porto Alegre em 1992, tratou-se de demonstrar que a utilização do referencial ambientalista esteve associado a uma multiplicidade de definições, resultando na agregação de organizações e interesses bastante diversificados na condução deste programa. Tais resultados evidenciam as relações entre os referenciais das políticas públicas e as características próprias do modo de organização e de funcionamento das instituições adminsitrativas e burocráticas. Palavras-chaves: práticas estatais; políticas públicas; proteção ambiental; resíduos sólidos “TRASH”, PUBLIC HEALTH AND ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION  Abstract: This article analyzes the genesis of the notion of environmental protection as a reference for government action in the administration and management of solid waste. Based on the implementation of the Selective Garbage Collection program in Porto Alegre in 1992, we demonstrated that the use of the environmental framework was associated with a multiplicity of definitions, resulting in the aggregation of diverse organizations and interests in the leading of this program. Such results show the relationship between public policy references and the dynamics of organization and functioning of administrative and bureaucratic institutions.Keywords: state practices; public policy; environmental protection; solid waste
