CITY OF SAN FERNANDO — Pampanga Environment and Natural Resources Officer Arturo Punzalan said the provincial government is willing to assist local government units in putting up their own materials recovery facility (MRF).
“We can provide them the construction materials they need in putting MRFs for their town,” he said.
Punzalan’s statement was in response to the latest report of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources-Environmental Management Bureau (EMB) that six towns in the province failed to build their own MRFs despite the enactment of Republic Act 9003 or the Ecological Solid Waste Management Act of 2000.
Based on the EMB report, the towns of Bacolor, Candaba, Masantol, San Simon, Sasmuan and Sta. Rita do have operating MRFs yet.
“Most of these towns have not yet found a location for their MRF that is safe from flooding during the rainy season,” Punzalan said.
Recently, Punzalan said Bacolor Mayor Jomar Hizon and Candaba Mayor Jerry Pelayo have located possible sites for their respective MRFs.
The other four mayors, Punzalan said, have also coordinated with his office for the creation of their MRFs.
Since Governor Lilia Pineda closely monitored the closure of open dumpsites and the creation of MRFs in the province, Punzalan said waste segregation has improved.
“We have improved in a way that a lot of Kapampangans are now aware of proper waste segregation,” Punzalan said.
Since other towns in the province have their MRFs, garbage being hauled to the Metro Clark Sanitary Landfill in Capas, Tarlac has also decreased.
Punzalan said the provincial government has saved millions of budget for not hauling much garbage to the sanitary landfill.
