Businesses here have been asked to carefully craft their Solid Waste Management Plan and abide by them as the city finds ways to reduce the daily disposal of garbage to its landfill.
DAVAO CITY—
“The purpose of the solid waste management plan regards with their disposal system, how they manage their waste. The only major requirement is the solid management plan,” said CENRO chief Marivic Reyes. Establishments must follow the system indicated in their solid waste management plan, a copy of which would be kept by CENRO as reference for future inspections. The plan must include segregation schematics, collection points, the disposal schedule, and other waste management details, all of which are geared at making sure that only residuals or unusable materials are collected by the CENRO.
In 2020, the office collected 223,431 tons of garbage. This increased to 254,750 tons in 2021 and 285,829 tons in 2022. All of these ended up in the city’s sanitary landfill, which is already full, the CENRO said.
