Capacity and Contacts for In-Country Emergency Response

GOVERNMENT

Libya is suffering from the political instability and a vacuum of effective governance, thus its capacity to respond to emergencies is very limited including the capacity of the military and civil defence. Until this point in time, the government hasn’t established a NDMO for emergencies. Although during early days of the Covid pandemic, the government established a Crises Committee to manage the crises headed by a senior military officer. Nevertheless, the government and through its different ministries (MOFA, Ministry of Displacement, MoH, MOE, Central bank…etc.) try to cooperate with the humanitarian community to ensure the smooth flow of the humanitarian services to the beneficiaries.

For more information on government contact details, please see the following link:

4.1 Government Contact List

HUMANITARIAN COMMUNITY

In 2021, HRP partners aim to reach approximately 451,000 people, 36 percent of the 1.3 million people identified to need humanitarian assistance. These are people with the most severe needs because of a partial or total collapse of living standards and basic services, increased reliance on negative coping strategies, and widespread physical and mental harm.

The response will target five groups identified as particularly vulnerable—internally displaced persons, non-displaced.

Libyans, returnees, and migrants and refugees— across all 22 Mantikas in the country. Based on assessed needs, the response prioritizes provision of or access to critical services, such as education, health, protection, and hygiene and sanitation, as well as providing access to basic household goods and commodities including food and essential non-food items.

Libya continues to struggle to cope with the effects of ongoing conflict and insecurity, an economic and governance crisis, and the impacts of COVID-19. In 2020, around 2.5 million people have been the most affected, with 1.3 million people having the most severe needs and requiring humanitarian assistance. This is the result of a deterioration or partial collapse of living standards and basic services, an increased reliance on the use of negative coping strategies and widespread grave violations of human rights and significant impact on physical and mental wellbeing. “OCHA”.

Hundreds of thousands of people across the country are living in unsafe conditions and in volatile conflict areas, with little or no access to basic household goods and essential commodities, and with limited access to functioning basic services and utilities. This includes people exposed to violence and unable to access life-saving medical assistance, essential medicines, food, safe drinking water and sanitation, shelter and education.

The humanitarian organizations play a big role to relive the suffering of people in Libya. There are more than 70 UN agencies, INGOs and NGO are operating in Libya to provide the humanitarian assistance.

UNHCR is one of the UN agencies that operates many programs through the partners such as IMC and Cesvi to improve protection and life-saving assistance to displaced people, refugees, asylum-seekers and host communities. This includes supporting local public services which benefit the whole community, such as hospitals and schools.

IOM has a significant and wide presence on the ground, they distribute NFI, including clothes, shoes, and other necessities, as well as hygiene kits to IDP families and migrants, IOM has also provided immediate humanitarian assistance to several hundred migrants rescued at sea by the Libyan Coast Guard through the provision of specialized health care including psychosocial support, clothing, hygiene articles and other necessities.

IOM Libya is currently implementing a community stabilization program aims at promoting peace and stability for IDPs, migrants and local host communities in Libya, and to build local capacities and promote peace initiatives with local authorities, NGOs and CSOs through training activities and support inter and intra community dialogue.

IOM also established Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) with the purpose of providing accurate and timely information on the locations and movements of IDPs, returnees and migrants.

ICRC gives relief assistance for beneficiaries in Libya. They distribute aid in the form of food and essential household items such as mattresses, blankets, kitchen sets, jerry cans, buckets, diapers, and hygiene kits. ICRC teams also provides medical supplies to hospitals and health-care facilities, and support patients with physical disabilities.

Libya - 2 Libya Logistics Infrastructure

Generally, Libya suffers from the absence of sophisticated management that uses the appropriate means for obtaining data. Moreover, the lack of systematic and organised statistics has led to a noticeable failure in the transportation facilities and insufficient investments in infrastructure financed by the Libyan Central government. Decision and policy making require intensive amount of data and complex analyses.

The national logistics infrastructure has been suffering from the war and the instable situation mainly due to lack of security guarantees in Libya, however there is still a good infrastructure available in the big cities: Tripoli, Misratah, and Benghazi…etc.

There are governmental plans in place to improve the infrastructure in Libya such as:

Implementing 400km coastal road project.
Plans for a new railway network is still under construction. There is no progress on it due to security issues.
Plans for a large power capacity expansion programme.
Investment in infrastructure by the foreign and private investors is still unthinkable because of the current absence of stability.

In 31st Aug 21, Prime Minister of GNU announced to launch of the development programme for the last quarter of 2021 under the name ‘‘Reviving Life’’, projects will target roads, schools, hospitals, clinics, digging water wells, installing desalination plants, and others.

In Aug 2021, the coastal road from Tripoli to Benghazi was reopened for public signalling a major unity indicator between the factions in the east and West. The road link Tunisian and Egyptian border crossing through Libya.

Discharge Rates and Terminal Handling Charges

The port tariffs as advised by the Port Management to be low compared to the other ports of the region, there is an inherited concept of cross government subsidy.

On one hand the lower port rates endeavour to ensure and keep the costs of the landed commodities to Libya at an affordable rate (debatable as Libya is an expensive country), however conversely, there is no mechanism in the rates structure or operating budgets to include a percentage for the purchase of equipment, structured maintenance and as important the development through training of the human capital. The tariffs are very low, being established back to the 1980s, however, the below table illustrates open yard container storage tariff in Libyan ports in 2020.

Libya - 2.3 Libya Road Network

September 2023 Floods - Temporary information

Info as of 14 September 2023.

The Roads and Bridges Authority announced the damaged road network is estimated at 30 kilometers around Derna and the closure of the roads connecting Shahat and Mansoura to Souss; Qasr Libya and Marawa; and the road connecting Ras Al-Hilal and the city of Derna. The roads passing through Qasr Libya, Al Baydah, Shahat and Ras Al Hilal areas have been affected by landslides in the hilly areas. Alternate routes are available, but while they are not easily passable for trucks, one of our partners was able to move larger trucks with medical supplies from Tripoli to Derna. Authorities are trying to open access to facilitate rescue and aid missions.

Libya Roads

The road network density is generally satisfactory, the total length of Libya's paved road network is about 34,000 km, of which about 15,500 km primary roads, the secondary and agricultural road network is about at 18,500 km. The highway network is classified into four main roadway types:

Expressways: Roads arteries outside municipal borders linking the cities and regions with two carriage ways and at least four lanes (two lanes or more in each direction).

Main roads: Roadways linking cities and regions, or serving cities within municipal boundaries, there are single carriageway roads for good paved standard or dual carriage ways with 2 lanes in each direction.

Secondary roads: These link district centers and villages.

Agricultural roads: Roads linking agricultural land and farms with markets.

Many rural roads are unpaved. Major highways along the seacoast and leading south merge into single lane. highways once they are outside major cities. These roads are heavily trafficked and can be precarious to navigate, especially at night and during the winter rainy season. The presence of sand deposits, as well as domestic and wild animals that frequently cross these highways and rural roads, makes them even more hazardous.

Most of road networks renovations and constructing new projects has been suspended due to the security situation in Libya, and the government is studying all potential means to resume developing road network projects.

The security situation and power struggle in country are considered the main challenges to establish a new transport projects and develop and improve the current road network.

Road Security

The availability of roadside assistance is extremely limited and offered only in arabic. In urban areas and near the outskirts of major cities there is a greater possibility of assistance by police and emergency ambulance services, although emergency care providers are usually ill-equipped to deal with serious injuries or accidents. Very few streets are marked or have signage, and highway signs are normally available only in Arabic. Various militias have supplanted the police in maintaining internal security. An armed group usually operating checkpoints within and between major cities.

Road travel within Libya remains highly dangerous. There continues to be a risk of being caught up in outbreaks of hostilities. There’s also a high risk of carjacking and robbery.

All movements (especially travelling) should be carefully planned; roads assessment and security arrangement should be done prior to any movement. The areas have been divided into zones (green zone, yellow zone, and red zone) by UNDSS, and movement rules for each zone has been identified.

Weighbridges and Axle Load Limits

All loaded trucks coming through the borders and from the ports should weigh both axle weights and gross vehicle weights. This helps to stop axle overloading, that roads in Libya suffer from. Breaking the regulations of and load limits are subject to heavy fines.

Libya - 2.3.1 Libya Border Crossing of Ras Ajdir

Overview

Ras Ajdir is the main and most dynamic border between Tunisia and Libya. Most of the humanitarian aids and commercial shipments between Tunisia and Libya go through this border.

On Friday, September 17, 2021, the border crossing between Libya and Tunisia reopened after a closure that lasted for more than two months, because of an agreement between the Tunisian and Libyan authorities on health arrangements in relation to preventing infection from the Corona virus.

We also stress that the movement is very slow through the crossing, due to the COVID19 protocol that is imposed by the two countries in their recent agreement on reopening the borders, which require that travellers from both sides have completed vaccination with the obligation to present a negative PCR analysis, and in the absence of this condition. They are required to enter a compulsory quarantine in the hostel at their expense.

From Tunisian side, there are the customs office and Tunisian National Tourist Office there. The free zone and the port are 78 km far from the border, and different facilities such as weighbridge scale and fuel station are available around.

Daily Capacity

As Ras Ajdir is the main border between Tunisia and Libya so it is congested with many commercial and humanitarian trucks, in addition to the movement of passengers travelling by private and taxi cars.

Although the border is organized by separating the lanes between trucks and cars, in normal situation the custom can release up to 300 trucks daily, and the priority is given to the humanitarian shipments, but still in case of extreme overcrowding, even the trucks loaded with humanitarian aids are subject to stuck at the border for few days.

Customs Clearance

Based on the Custom Department in Tunisia and Libya, the following documents are required to clear the goods at the borders:

- Exporting or re-exporting documents from Tunisia to Libya are required.

- Other related documents:

Copy of the Waybill.
Copy of certificate of origin.
Copy of Packing list.
Shipping Invoice.
Copy of Certificate of analysis

However, and due to bureaucracy and number of checkpoints affiliated to different groups/authorities, we can sometimes expect delay at the borders. All goods will be inspected at the border and samples will be taken for analysis, but generally this process is done swiftly and don’t take time. Humanitarian aids are exempted from the custom fees; they just pay nominal amount as administrative expenses. While the commercial

Daily Capacity

Dehiba-Wazin normally is not crowded with cars or trucks as it is a secondary border between Libya and Tunisia unless Ras Ajdir borders is closed for some reasons.

The border is organized with different lanes for trucks and cars, and in normal situation the custom can release up to 200 trucks daily. The priority is given generally to the humanitarian shipments, but the trucks loaded with humanitarian aids can subject to stuck at the border for few days in case of extreme overcrowding, which is rarely happens.

Customs Clearance

Based on the Custom Department in Tunisia and Libya, the following documents are required to clear the goods at the borders:

- Exporting or re-exporting documents from Tunisia to Libya are required.

- Other related documents:

Copy of the Waybill.
Copy of certificate of origin.
Copy of packing list.
Shipping invoice.
Copy of Certificate of analysis

However, and due to bureaucracy and number of checkpoints affiliated to different groups/authorities, we can sometimes expect delay at the borders.

All goods will be inspected at the border and samples will be taken for analysis, but generally this process is done swiftly and don’t take time.

Humanitarian aids are exempted from the custom fees; they just pay nominal amount as administrative expenses. While the commercial trucks pay roughly between 100-200 LD (depending on the size and type of the cargo).

Libya - 2.4 Libya Railway Assessment

Libya Railway

The first railways in Libya consisted of a little over 200km of narrow (960mm) gauge lines radiating from Tripoli, constructed in 1912 by the then Italian colonial government. A further group of narrow-gauge lines emerged around Benghazi and was later extended. The last of these lines closed in 1965. A standard gauge line was constructed from Egypt as far as Tobruk during World War II but closed in 1946.

image-20230518091324-1

image-20230518091335-2

Around 1998, plans were announced for the opening of a new railway system, starting with a line from Tripoli to the Tunisian border. In 2001 it was reported that 60% of the earthworks were completed; however, these reports may have been somewhat optimistic. In any event, the project languished, and no further progress was made.

In 2009, the Italian government gifted a modern 4-car diesel train to Libya. The train had been built in Italy by AnsaldoBreda as part of an order for Danish State Railways; it was placed on a 3km section of new track specially constructed in the southwest outskirts of Tripoli. Satellite imagery dated 2020 shows the train still in the same location.

2008 contracts were lead with Russian and Chinese companies for the construction of several new standard (1435mm) gauge railways. In 2010, it was reported that the first 14km of a 554km line from Sirte to Benghazi was complete. However, all construction ceased, and contracts lapsed with the Revolution of 2011 and subsequent civil war. In 2013, negotiations began with Russian Railways for the resumption of work. These negotiations were cut short by a renewed outbreak of civil war.

image-20230518091402-4

In 2020, the Egyptian government announced plans for a line connecting the Egyptian rail network at Sallum with Benghazi. The line would in part follow the route of the former railway between Sallum and Tobruk. There have been no operational railways in Libya since 1965, but various lines existed in the past. An extensive system is now being developed and is under construction.

Libya - 2.5 Libya Waterways Assessment

Libya Waterways

Most of Libya is desert, with limited surface water resources, and it relies almost entirely on groundwater, most of which is ‘fossil’ water – recharged thousands of years ago when the region’s climate was wetter. Most agriculture relies on groundwater for irrigation, largely from the Great Man-Made River. This was a major project from the 1980s: a network of pipes transporting groundwater abstracted from the Nubian Sandstone Aquifer System, in the Saharan part of southern Libya, northwards to cities and towns on the coast where most of the population lives.

Great Man-Made River:

Libya’s only large and reliable river is a pipeline. Great Man-Made River (GMR) is a well field that mines drinking and irrigation water from non-rechargeable aquifers that underlay much of North Africa. The largest GMR aquifer is the 1981-meter-deep Kufra Basin on the Egyptian border, with a total of 350000 cubic km. The aquifers were discovered in 1953, during petroleum exploration, and the administration began the 25-year project in 1984.

Libya - 2.6 Libya Storage Assessment

Different types of storage facilities and well-prepared and organized warehouses are available in almost the vital areas inside Libya and (example warehouses near ports and airports).

There are many logistics services companies operating in Libya, providing a several logistics services including professional storage facilities, inventory management and handling, and domestic distribution solution.

Due to insecurity situation in Libya and the looting and burglary incidents occurred there, finding a warehouse that suited in a safe location is considered as one of the main challenges.

For more information on storage company contact details, please see the following link:

[2] Warehouse Access: Raised-siding, flat.

[3] Warehouse condition: Appears intact, appears damaged, under construction/repair.

Storage Used by Humanitarian Organizations

Humanitarian organizations in Libya either run their own facilities or manage the warehouses through third parties (logistics service providers) or through cooperating partners. However, and to mitigate the risk of looting and burglary given the insecurity situation, many humanitarian organizations avoid stockpiling large amounts of commodities, often delivering the commodities directly from the vendor/port to the FDP.

Public Sector Storage

Public sector storage is not available.

Cold Chain

Pharmaceuticals and other medical items which require specific temperature are imported through reefer containers then transported to the warehouses that have been equipped for this purpose. There are some logistics services companies that provide integrated cold chain solutions inside Libya (such as Tarek Alzahra Transport & Logistics CO ‘TZTL ‘LLC which provides cold chain solutions for transportation, warehouse management etc. for drugs and vaccines). Some humanitarian organizations also have cold chain storage options.

2.7 Libya Milling Assessment

Arable land in Libya is about 3.6 million hectares, which is 2.07% of the total area of Libya land, and there are about 100,000 farmers, Libya imports approximately 90% of the 1.3 million tons of the grains it consumes annually, nearly 105,000 tons per month, purchasing approximately 90% of soft wheat from abroad and 10% covered by the local production, Libya consumes 100,000 tons of durum per year and covers the rest of the needs through imports from abroad, The capacity of grain silos in Libya is currently approx. 500,000 tons.

Libya has achieved self-sufficiency in durum wheat production in previous periods, but this changed after the austerity measures announced by the Libyan Central Bank in 2015 and the end of support to farmers in fodder, fertilizer, and urea.

Other essential purchases from abroad include rice, corn oil, yeast, sugar, and tea. Responsibility for ensuring that all Libyans have access to a plentiful and affordable supply of basic food items lies with the National Supply Corporation (NASCO), a non-profit state-owned government agency. Founded in 1971, as an institution affiliated to the Ministry of Economic Affairs, which deals with the provision of raw materials, materials, and crops in order to regularly achieve stable prices on the market and availability in needs-based quantities for consumers and maintaining an adequate stock of basic commodities that are subject to sharp fluctuations in their prices.

3 Libya Services and Supply

In general, supplies and services are available with good quality in the local market of Libya. Food and NFI supplies are 80% imported from the neighboring countries and international markets such as Europe, USA and Middle East by private importers and investors then distributed to the wholesalers and distributors. However, due to different factors such as security, lack of liquidity in the central banks and exchange rate fluctuation, the local market is not regulated, is unpredictable and often unstable in pricing, and there is a shortage of items every now and then.

Fuel in Libya is subsidized by government, but it still subjects to interruption and shortage from time to time.

Libya - 3.1 Libya Fuel

Fuel Overview

The fuel in Libya is provided and controlled by the Libyan National Oil Corporation, and it is subsidized by the government. Brega Company which works under Libyan National Oil Corporation is responsible for marketing the oil derivatives inside Libya through three companies (Alrahila, Sharara Oil Service Co, Oil Libya) The three above-mentioned companies manage their own fuel stations in all regions and cities of Libya, in addition to distributing and selling oil derivatives to the private and public stations, the vessels, the aviation sector, and the consumers from public corporations, economic units, factories, national and foreign companies.

Although Libya is an oil producer country and has the largest oil reserves in Africa, most of the local market needs of fuel are imported from the international market. This occurs due to the internal conflicts and security situation in the country which caused to frequent suspension of the oil field and oil refining works.
Shortage of fuel is common every now and then because of the constant fuel smuggling processes to the neighbouring countries and via sea to Europe.

For more information on government and fuel provider contact details, please see the following links:

4.1 Libya Government Contact List

4.7 Libya Fuel Provider Contact List

Information may also be found at: http://www.mytravelcost.com/petrol-prices/ which is updated monthly. 

Fuel Pricing

Fuel in Libya is one of the cheapest in all over the world. The price is determined by the National Oil Cooperation and it’s subsidised by the government.

The availability of diesel is affected by the high demand as it is used for generators during the blackout and is bought on the black market at a higher price ($ 0.50 / 1 L).

Fuel Prices per Litre as of: 30-09-2021 *(local currency)*
Petrol	0.11
Diesel	0.15 (official price)
Paraffin	N/A
Jet A-1	N/A

Seasonal Variations

Fuel smuggling is the main challenge that from time to time resulted in fuel not being available in the country.

Lack of liquidity is another factor that hinders the fuel supply process in the international market and affects its availability in the local market.

Seasonal Variations
Are there national priorities in the availability of fuel? (i.e., are there restrictions or priorities for the provision of fuel such as to the military?)	No
Is there a rationing system?	No
Is fuel to lower income / vulnerable groups subsidized?	The fuel is subsidized for all population
Can the local industry expand fuel supply to meet humanitarian needs?	No. The fuel market relies on importing, not on local industry.
Is it possible for a humanitarian organization to directly contract a reputable supplier / distributor to provide its fuel needs?	Yes. The humanitarian organizations can deal directly with one of the following companies ((Alrahila Co, Sharara Oil service Co, Oil Libya Co).

Fuel Transportation

The fuel is transported through the three companies (Alrahila Co, Sharara Oil service Co, Oil Libya Co). The companies own a fleet of transport vehicles equipped with tanks to transport and distribute oil derivatives and products and gas according to customers' requests (distribution stations, airports, ports, factories...,etc.) for all cities inside Libya.

Standards, Quality and Testing

The Libyan National Centre for Standardization and Metrology (LNCSM) is the responsible entity to prepare and issue the national standards in all fields of products and services including the oil products.

The Libyan Petroleum Institute which is affiliated to the National Oil Cooperation (NOC), carries out research and technical studies related to the oil industry, conducts technical analysis and tests for the various stages of exploration and production of oil and petroleum products, performs quality control tests and issues certificates in this respect.

Industry Control Measures
Do tanks have adequate protection against water mixing with the fuel?	Yes
Are there filters in the system which monitor where fuel is loaded into aircraft?	Yes
Is there adequate epoxy coating of tanks on trucks?	Yes
Is there a presence of suitable firefighting equipment?	Yes

Standards Authority
Is there a national or regional standards authority?	Yes
If yes, please identify the appropriate national and/or regional authority.	National: National Oil Cooperation (NOC)
If yes, are the standards adequate/properly enforced?	Yes

Libya - 3.2 Libya Transporters

Many local transportation companies operate in Libya and cover the whole areas inside the country. There are also international and regional companies work there but mostly through partners’ companies.
There are sufficient number of trucks available in the country to meet the demand of the local market and humanitarian organizations operating there. The union of trucks is responsible for organizing the queue of trucks at ports, and all companies should commit to queue.
Security situation is the main challenge of the transportation. Safety of routes should be checked in every transportation prior to trucks movement, and it’s common that the movement of trucks cancelled or postponed due to security issues.

Libya - 3.5 Libya Food and Additional Suppliers

The local market relies on importation, almost 80% of the available commodities in the Libya are imported from the regional and international market through the Libyan importers and investors, this includes but not limited to food, NFI, pharmaceuticals and medical supplies, and oil products (although Libya exports the crude oil).

However, there is a manufacturing of some food items like dairy products and juice in Libya.

Local traders are usually ready to scale up the volume of importations to meet any extension on local demands, and ready to respond for special procurement request which is not done regularly.

The main challenge for the importers is the lack of liquidity and hard currency in the central bank, and the difficulty to open new L/A and receive hard currency through the governmental banks, thus the importers are obliged to get the required hard currency through the black market, which is higher than the official rate, and resulted to significant accretion in the commodities price.

Shortage of items and delay in importing might occur every now and then due to the current security situation, and lack of liquidity in the country.

Generic country information can be located from sources which are regularly maintained and reflect current facts and figures. For a general overview of country data related to the service and supply sectors, please consult the following sources:

Libya - 3.6 Libya Additional Services

Overview

In general, the essential services needed to set up and run the operation are available in Libya, and in case of unavailability of some of the essential services, there is always alternative service to replace It, Example: The generators replace the national grid during the outages.

The main obstacle is the banking services as the banking system is collapsed in Libya due to severe lack of liquidity.

For more information on company contact details, please see the following link: 

4.11 Additional Services Contact List.

Accommodation

Due to security situation and conflicts in Libya, the UN is using Oea (a compound in Janzour, Tripoli) to be used for its accommodations and offices.

Houses for renting are still available in both cities “Tripoli & Benghazi” in case of more influx of demand, but the price is very high.

Electricity and Power

Libya suffers severe power shortages during most of the year, as several power plants have been damaged in the war. There is a lack of cash and foreign companies to undertake maintenance and complete suspended projects.

As a result, the General Electricity Company of Libya (GECOL) is forced to implement blackouts to avoid a possible collapse of the grid.

GECOL said in June 2017 that the grid’s available production stands at 4,900 megawatts (MW), whereas demand reached 6,500 MW, with a deficit of 130 MW in the east and 1,470 MW in the west.

The west, which includes Tripoli, is expected to have five to eight hours of blackout per day, while the east will have one to four hours without power. The alternative source of the power during the blackout is the generators.

Plans began to expand capacity before the war, with thermal plants planned or under construction. Most of the work was completed in the Benghazi, Misratah and Sirte plants by 2012, but construction has been suspended since foreign companies left the country. Currently, several plants are being constructed or are starting operations.

GECOL has plans for a large power capacity expansion programme in the coming ten to 15 years, although its development depends entirely on the availability of funds and details remain scare.

In 2017, Egypt has agreed to provide Libya with electricity, starting from 2018. It is also to provide expertise in rebuilding the Libyan electricity industry Libya also is importing the electricity from Tunisia.

More information about the power in Libya could be found at https://fanack.com/libya/ .

Financial Services

Libya faces an ever-worsening currency and liquidity crisis which cannot be surmounted without a stable political solution.

There are 18 banks in Libya works under the supervision of Libyan Central bank, but as the result of the instability of the political and economic situation in Libya, the banking sectors became unreliable. People and businessmen withdrew their money from the banks which lead to a shortage of liquidity and has negatively affected the entire monetary system in the country.

Considering the above fact and to find alternative solutions to the liquidity crisis, the electronic payment services have been activated in the country. There are two main financial service providers (TADAWUL TECH, Moamalat) issuing Pre-Paid cards in coordination with banking system, while some others (Umbrella Itd Financial Service, Almadar) launched a mobile money service

More information about the abovementioned companies is available on the services contact list.

Libya - 3.7 Libya Waste Management and Recycling Infrastructure Assessment

Overview

Libya has faced with a variety of bureaucratic impediments, which has resulted in an limited waste management system and poor infrastructure.

The majority of solid waste management regulations enacted before and after 2011 in Libya mandate the assignment of local governments to perform these services throughout the country.

The Ministry of Local Government is responsible for solid waste management throughout the country, whereas local municipal authorities have little or no role in managing this service.

The private sector's contribution to investment in waste management and recycling infrastructure remains low and the waste management sector is largely informal or ad hoc.

Large portions of the waste generated throughout Libya is currently disposed of by open dumping and unofficial landfills in some areas of Libya, with about 587 grams of solid waste per person per day being produced. As a result, organic and inorganic waste is piling in informal landfills and dump sites in various areas around the country, especially in rural areas.

Waste landfills divide in Libya into two distinct parts, which differ in numerous ways, namely:

Informal landfills: Locations selected for discarding and disposing of solid waste without official approval. Unofficial landfills / dump sites can pose health and environmental challenges for local populations
Official Landfills: In Libya, each municipality has a landfill for all forms of waste, including industrial, municipal, solid, and other hazardous wastes.

Landfills in Tripoli

Non-Hazardous Waste Disposal

Litter bins and other garbage containers in Libya are regulated by the General Service Company (GSC), and the vast majority of Libyans deposit their waste in these receptacles. The GSC also transports the trash to the main landfills, which is located 60 kilometers to the south of Tripoli at a site called Sidi Alsaeh landfill and additional landfills located at various sites across the country.

As a result of the high population density in the capital city of Tripoli, for example, the city's sewage pumping stations are unable to keep up with the daily water needs of the city's residents, who use about 2 cubic meters each day. Despite the state implementing over 80 projects to modernize sewage networks in Tripoli alone between 2005 and 2011, the problem is still higher than the current resources of the Libyan state, In Tripoli, there is a drainage network that serves only approximately 25% of the city's population, and due to a lack of water treatment plants, the city regularly pumps sewage water directly into the sea through a series of drainage holes, several populations, particularly those living outside of cities, use semi-septic tanks in their dwellings.

Additional Comments

Numerous private companies have emerged that gather a variety of solid wastes, particularly cardboard, paperboard, plastic, and plastic bottles, and compress cardboard, plastic, and paper shredding and use them as raw materials and export them to neighbouring countries. As for other waste, especially iron and cans, there are numerous private locations where this type of waste is collected and purchased and converted into a raw material that is sold to the Iron and Steel Complex in Misrata or exported overseas.

Please note: WFP / Logistics Cluster maintain complete impartiality and are not in a position to endorse, comment on any company's suitability as a reputable service provider.

Libya - 4.9 Libya Railway Companies Contact List

There have been no operational railways in Libya since 1965, but various lines existed in the past. An extensive system was developed to construct a railway network in country, but all related projects had postponed since 2010. There has been no progress on it during the last 11 years due to security and financial issues.
