- W1562826286 abstract "Major landuse issues in solid waste management have been most frequently associated with the stigma of having a major solid waste facility in the neighbourhood. A major drawback for the industry is the difficulty to get acceptance for siting of new waste treatment facilities because of the Not-In-My-Backyard Syndrome. This paper presents the results of a study on the important issues of economic attitudes and perceived risks that influence the acceptance of waste facilities, especially landfills in urban residential areas using Lagos metropolis as a case study. The two landfills (Olushosun and Abule-Egba) were selected because apart from the fact that these two landfills are the most utilized, their contrasting geographical location in medium and high density residential areas respectively and their differences in sizes and operations all combined to justify the choice of the two landfills.The main instrument of data collection is a structured questionnaire administered to heads of households living in close proximity to two landfill sites. The sample size consists of 930 heads of households in the two locations (488 in Olushosun and 442 in Abule-Egba). The households interviewed are those that reside within three- kilometer radius of the two landfill sites. The distance was stratified into three concentric zones round the two sites; < 1km, 1.1-2km and 2.1-3km. The findings revealed that anticipated economic benefits and perceived risks are key variables in predicting responses to siting waste facilities especially if the facility is hazardous. The major conclusion from this study is that the more risky a facility is perceived to be, the lower the level of support for the sitting of such facility." @default.
