Since its independence, Turkmenistan has paid increased attention to environmental management, including waste management, although important work is still necessary in order to ensure that waste management in Turkmenistan reaches international standards. Certain steps in that direction are being undertaken. For example, increased attention is given to the organization of reliable waste collection and materials recovery. Waste generation decreases in connection with industry modernization, and as international companies in the oil sector introduce new standards in relation to waste. Furthermore, territories within Turkmenistan have been cleared of toxic waste, mostly pesticides, by the State Concern TurkmenChemistry.
