The Department of Environment and Natural Resources’s Environmental Management Bureau has started using an enhanced online monitoring system to efficiently track local government units in compliance with the Ecological Solid Waste Management Act.
Unlike the previous system where monitoring reports reach EMB offices some days after the incident occurred, the new online system provides real-time reporting, allowing for quick response by concerned LGUs, which are primarily responsible for the enforcement of the Republic Act 9003 or the Ecological Solid Waste Management Act of 2000.
ENMOs have been deployed nationwide to provide assistance to LGUs, particularly barangays, in establishing an effective solid waste management program and strengthen the enforcement of other environmental laws and regulations since 2017.
