English term or phrase: waste service coverage

Waste management is one of the biggest environment-related burning issues. No country has ever experienced as large, or as rapid, an increase in waste production, generating a growing demand for {waste service coverage}, environmental requirements for safe disposal systems, and rationalization of cost-effectiveness in service delivery.

除了上述短语之外，还有句子方面的疑问，需要麻烦各位同仁一块探讨解决：

generating a growing demand for for waste service coverage, environmental requiremetns for safe disposal systems, and retionalization of cost-effectiveness in service industry. 在这个句子中：
growing demand for ......和environmental requirements for ....是否为并列的，同为generating 的宾语？

而，and rationalization of cost-effectiveness in service delivery 是否和上述demand for.....以及requirements for......并列做generating 的宾语，还是和 safe dispsoal systems 并且，做介词requirements for 的宾语呢？

谢谢

Chinese translation:废物服务范围

Explanation:
waste services 是一个大范围，当中包括：
waste collection {废物收集服务}
waste transportation {废物运输服务}
waste transfer {废物转运服务}
waste treatment {废物处理服务}
waste disposal {废物处置服务}

把废物处理当作是唯一的废物服务，是大部分人的误区。提问句内所论及的，是现代社会对整体废物服务{即各种多元性废物服务}方面需求的激增。不是光需求处理方面的服务。

这个coverage的存在，就是在强调多元性的服务范围。
