NO UNEP initial quantification of earthquake generated debris in selected towns and villages in Latakia Governorate is derived from building footprint data provided by Microsoft and damage assessment data from UNOSAT. Two scenarios are presented: a) Scenario 1: 100% of debris is disposed of at disposal facilities; and b) Scenario 2: 50% of debris is recycled at a centralized recycling facility and remaining 50% is disposed. For modelling purposes, disposal and recycling facilities are assumed to be at a 10km distance from source of debris. Cost assumptions are based on local debris management costs provided by UNDP, and results will need to be refined based on local parameters.
