The last paragraph under the sub-topic “Waste generation and composition” (Results and discussion section of the article) should be read as follows.
Nevertheless, the public surveys revealed that household waste on average comprises 80–90 % organic (biodegradable) material, which is higher than the organic content in the mixed MSW collected by the UC (Fig. 3). This finding confirms that addition of other material reduces the organic material content [4].
Also under the sub-topic “Landfilling” in “Legislation and current MSW practices” (Results and discussion section of the paper), the JICA funded engineered Moon Plains landfill is situated within the Nuwara Eliya District (not Kandy District).
The author regrets for the errors.
