dc.description.abstract Solid waste management, is a significance of day -to- day activity of human kinds, needs to be accomplished properly. Koye-Feche faces challenges associated with a poorly managed solid waste system. A rational behind the study was the poor status of solid waste management and absence of disposal site land fill location at close distance to Koye-Fache condominium and the current solid waste management practices. The municipal solid waste bases substantial harm to the environment and human health if mismanaged. With a rapidly expanding human population and growing trend of koye-Fache and problems related to the management of solid waste have become of considerable importance from both environment and human safety point of view. This urges for better understanding of the existing practices and challenges of solid waste management in emerging settlement of Koye-fache. This study therefore assessed the generation and composition of solid waste and come up with land fill design of disposal site to Koye-Fache condominium. The study is conducted on sample proportion selected from different damping centers of household, commercial. health facilities, schools and streets, within each village of the condominium site. Both primary and secondary data sources had been used. Primary data were collected through measurements from sample proportion selected locations. Secondary data were collected from web site; different documents and office reports. The data collected from both primary and secondary sources were analyzed using quantitative methods. The result indicated that out of the total solid waste collected from the households about 73,745Kg (70%) were food wastes, whereas metals accounts only 16.85kg (0.02%) as compared to other wastes. Similarly, out of the total solid waste collected from health facilities glass accounts the largest 728.47kg (52.4%0 and paper accounts the least 46.46kg (3.34%). When we compare different facilities, the largest amount of solid waste was collected from household facility and the least amount collected from Health facilities. In terms of solid waste transfer, the total amount solid waste transferred per week were 123,497.20kg (562.47m3). en_US
