Overall a good and interesting course, though some material (referenced) are getting a little dated and needs to be updated. Would like to see more on institutional challenges and financing of MSWM.

This course is too wonderful to solid waste managers and its assistants, because it is explored real on hand experience, and even the instructors are easily understood to their students.
