Cebu City cited for waste mismanagement

SunStar Publishing Inc.

Landfill disposal could have decreased, and the Cebu City Government could have saved on garbage hauling and tipping fees if it had utilized its P3 million composting facilities and the over P50 million budget allocated for establishing material recovery facilities .This was after the Commission on Audit found out that the City was not using its composting facilities located in Barangays Taptap and Basak Pardo, which cost P1.9 million and P1.

The City, in a reply letter dated April 22, said that it fully understands the necessity of having adequate composting and recycling facilities to handle huge volumes of biodegradable waste, yet they faced serious problems in establishing such facilities.The City said they had drafted project proposals to establish MRFs in selected barangays for the year 2023 and sent letters to ask for available lots; however, no response was received.
