2021 Revised SWM

Local Government Unit of San Lorenzo Ruiz 10 Year Solid Waste Management Plan
10-year Ecological Solid

Waste Management Plan
2018 -2028

RATIONALE
Sustainable solid waste management program is possible if there will be sufficient

political will in the part of the Local Government Unit (LGU). Because it is the responsibility of
the LGU to provide the means and capacity to have a good waste management practices.
Through establishing ordinances and initiating education and information campaign, citizens’
participation could be achieved. Solid Waste Management Facilities are essential tools not only
for the easy of processing of but also have a strong impact on the mindset of the people.
Most LGU have a negative impression about investing in their Solid Waste Management
Program (SWMP) because LGUs find it costly and impractical. But once properly designed and
implemented, SWMP could be income generating to the LGU as well as it could create jobs for
the people. This is proven by few LGU in the country. Development of related industries could
be achieved through the application of various technologies like biodegradable and residual
waste processing.
Some LGU may argue that every sustainable SWMP starts will the citizen’s participation.
It is correct at some points, but public initiative in segregation and applying SWM techniques
will be insufficient because if the end-pipe of the waste have no capacity to handle the solid
waste properly. In this case, the public’s effort to improve the SWM will be futile.
The efficiency of the SWM greatly relies on the proper segregation and diversion of solid
waste. Proper segregation relies on the knowledge and participation of the people. And the
participation of the people relies on the political will of the government to implement its policies
and to educate its people. This is why it all boils down to the integrity and willingness of the
government to make a difference.

The Municipality of San Lorenzo Ruiz, a 5 th

Class Municipality, under my leadership, gives utmost
priority and attention to Environmental problems and
concerns. Our duty is to address the problems and
provide necessary solutions.
As the population of the municipality grows, the volume of solid wastes

also increases. During Summer Time, Tourists flock our tourist destinations
such as Zipline, Nacali Falls, Mampurog River and San Lorenzo Ruiz High
Land. Along with this are waste generated from different sources such as
domestic, institutional and commercial. Mismanagement of these wastes
creates adverse effects on environment, health and sanitation, social and
economic well-being of the people of San Lorenzo Ruiz.
Solid waste is a global concern that poses threat and danger to the
environment condition which has to be addressed. On the part of LGU-SLR,
this is not yet alarming, but we have to take necessary and precautionary steps
to address the problem. The “Ecological Solid Waste Management Act of 2000”
provides systematic, comprehensive and ecological solid waste management
program. The law requires the LGUs to formulate their respective Ecological
Solid Waste Management Plan through participative planning approach.
In compliance thereto, the Municipal Solid Waste Management Board

(MSWB) was first created through Executive Order No. 28 s. 2016 which was
issued by the undersigned on December 6, 2016. It was reconstituted through
an Executive Order No. 07 s. 2018 issued on March 13, 2018. The MSWB is
tasked to efficiently and effectively monitor the implementation of solid waste
management programs of the Municipality.
At present, the LGU- considers the ESWMP a primary concern not just
as a requirement but as a tool and guide in addressing the solid waste issues
of this municipality.
3
The 10 year – ESWM Plan is being prepared consistent with the outline
provided by the National Solid Waste Commission (NSWMC). It went through
the process of waste characterization collected from different sources
preparedly to establish a correct and accurate baseline data as the basis for an
effective and reliable plan.
Finally, this 10-year Ecological Solid Waste Management Plan of the

Municipality of San Lorenzo Ruiz ensures sustainability, viability and
effectiveness in addressing the solid wastes problems of this municipality in
the years to come.

INTRODUCTION
The problem of solid waste generation and its management has become a genuine
concern of the Municipality. The rapid swelling population, increasing urbanization and
intensifying economic activities have all contributed to the generation of solid waste.
In response to this pressing concern, the Local Government Unit of San Lorenzo Ruiz has
adopted measures to anticipate vis-à-vis expansion of solid waste management services,
provision of a more cost-effective waste collection and transport, development and establishment
of cost effective solid waste disposal facility.
The enhancement of the Municipalities solid waste management will be done in

accordance with the provisions of Republic Act 9003 otherwise known as the Ecological Solid
Waste Management Act of 2000.While every citizen is responsible for its waste segregation at
source, the Municipality is primarily in charge of collection and transport of residuals until final
disposal. Thus, the City Government formulated and updates the Ten (10) Year Solid Waste
Management Plan. The Plan will serve as guide to public and private stakeholders in the
implementation geared towards compliance of R.A. 9003. However, the plan will only be
effective if all stakeholders will response and cooperate to the call of environmental protection
not just merely compliance.
A Municipal Solid Waste Management Board (MSWMB) the LGU of San Lorenzo Ruiz
was created under this administration and has formulated the 10-year Ecological Solid Waste
Management Plan consistent with the mandate of RA 9003. The Board was tasked to formulate
plans and policies for implementation and conducted massive information and education
campaign (IEC) for the awareness of the stakeholders. Regular meetings and conferences were
called upon to establish and maintain proper coordination and cooperation among the members
of the Board.
An ordinance shall be passed in support to the implementation of the plan. It is assured that this
plan which will be put into action will respond to the reduction of garbage and promote an
ecologically balanced and healthy community.

1.1 Purpose
1.1.a Municipality’s Vision related to solid waste management
It is envisioned that the formulation of the 10-Year Ecological Solid Waste

Management Plan will lead to the reduction and proper management of
garbage disposal, and will effectively promote an ecologically balanced
and Healthy community.
1.1.b Key issues facing the community
Generation of solid wastes varies directly with the rapid increase of

population which creates high degree of pollution resulting to a negative effect
on the social and economic well-being of the populace. Problems in solid
waste seems not a priority of residents due to lack of awareness and
information what negative effects may bring to them. People discipline for
themselves in as far as garbage management is concerned.
1.1.c Goals for the plan, and how the plan will help to alleviate the issues
facing the community.
1. Creation of committed and effective Solid Waste Management Board

Members to formulate plans and policies on proper garbage
management for strict compliance;
2. Formulate comprehensive and effective waste management program to

be implemented;
3. Institutionalize the environmental consciousness of the people through
intensive education campaign (IEC);
4. Integrate imposition of penalties for violators to establish self

discipline among the residents;
5. Motivate and encourage people to engage in backyard composting

activity using biodegradable wastes to produce soil
conditioner/enhancer fertilizers; and
6. Establish an eco-park and model demo farm for crops and vegetables
production to be replicated by the residents.
1.1.d Intent of RA 9003 and its effect on Solid Waste Management.
RA 9003, otherwise known as the Ecological Solid Waste Management Act of

2000 mandates all LGUs to formulate their respective 10-year comprehensive
Solid Waste Management Plan. This will enable LGU to well-manage them
own solid wastes generated thereby reducing waste residues being dumped to
6
1.2 APPROACH
The formulation of the municipality’s 10-year solid waste management plan has undergone
different stages as follows:
 Orientation conference with the members of the Municipal Solid Waste

 Management Board (MSWMB) concerning the proposed formulation
 of the 10-year solid waste management plan.
 Creation of Technical Working Group (TWG)
 Inventory of Solid Waste Management Equipment and Facilities
 Identification of Waste Generated in the Locality

LAND AREA PER BARANGAY
In its humble beginnings, during the Spanish regime particularly in the Year 1800,
1896, the Municipality of SAN LORENZO RUIZ was once a Sitio of Barangay Mampurog
under the territorial jurisdiction then of the Municipality of Calasgasan.
It was said that the seat of the Municipal Government now of SAN LORENZO RUIZ
started as part of vast virgin forest during the Spanish Regime. An individual by the name of
Juan Aruljo who hailed from Guinobatan, Albay came to this place in the later part of 1896 and
cleared the area that later on became known as Matacong.
How the place was called Matacong originated according to old folks from the vernacular
term “Matarom” which means sharp. In those days; a creek named Matacong Creek connects
with Daet River. Hunters from the area usually places on the creek instrument called “Matarom”
or “Duhang”. These hunters when queried in going to this particular place would often reply
“Matarom”. Difference in their pronunciation occasioned by chewing betel nut or with the cigar
on their mouth sounded the name as “Matacong”. It later on became a by-word during the
succeeding generations as referring to the creek, which later on referred to the entire area
surrounding the creek as Sitio Matacong.
By 1905, the area called Matacong was sold by Juan Aruljo to a certain Victor Abaño
that subsequently sold the same to one Victor Racho in year 1917. Matacong later became part
of Daet after the former Municipality of Calasgasan was reduced to a barrio of the Capital town
of Camarines Norte Province. This took place after the so-called province of Ambos Camarines
was divided into two provinces of Camarines Sur and Camarines Norte on March, 1919.
Certain political events paved the way for the autonomy of Matacong. It commenced on
Year 1938 when local settlers of Matacong organized themselves in an organization called
“Samahang Magsasaka” (farmer’s association) and made representation with the Municipal
Council of Daet. The Municipal Council approved and made Matacong a barrio of Daet during
the term of Mayor Santiago Carranceja taken from its mother barrio of Mampurog. Corollary to
this, the Capital town of Daet lost its most important barrios that were created as Municipalities
of Basud and Mercedes.
Republic Act 6144 approved by then House of Congress of the Philippines on
November 08, 1970 created the Municipality of Imelda. It was made up of the barrios of
Daculangbolo, Laniton, Langga, Maisog, Dagotdotan, Mampurog and the so called Matacong all
11
part of the capital town of Daet as well as the barrios of San Isidro, San Antonio, San Ramon,
Salvacion and Manlimonsito duly separated from the Municipality of Basud.
On February 10, 1989 Republic Act 6708 was passed by Congress of the Philippines
changing the name of the municipality to San Lorenzo Ruiz in honor of the first Filipino saint.

In preparing a comprehensive 10-year SWMP, demographic changes through time must also be
considered. The solid waste generated has a strong relationship with the number of people
located in the LGU. The historical growth of population in San Lorenzo Ruiz is shown in
This data will be used in the calculation of the solid waste generation of the LGU for the specific
period of time. It will important for the required capacity building and Information and
Education Campaign (IEC) in the community.

province and bounded on the eastern part by the municipalities of Basud the capital town of Daet. In the
west it is bounded partly by San Vicente and Lupi which is municipalities of the neighboring province of
Camarines Sur. At the North by Daet and south by Lupi again. The geographic position is 00’ 00” N 123 °
OOE with a grid coordinates of 0.000 easting 500,000,000. It lies between Latitude 13 ° 56‘ 00” and 14°
06’ 00” and between longitude 122° 47’ 00” and 122° 57’ 00”. It has an area of 10,528.2463 hectares.
B. Climate. Imelda falls under the Second Type of climate consisting of no dry season, very
pronounced maximum rain period from November to January; the municipality is frequently visited by
typhoons causing damage to coconut which is the main source of income in the municipality.
C. Topography. The municipality of Imelda has only two (2) types of topographic relief, the flat
lowland and the mountains area with an elevation of 300 meters above sea level.
D. Slope. Slope is the degree of inclination of a given area. It is the distance rise divided by the
distance run. In equation form,
Slope = Rise
Run
Thus, a slope of 3% means that there is an again of 3 units for every 100 units of horizontal or
ground distance travelled.
Table 01 shows the various slope categories in Imelda together with corresponding descriptions,
land area in hectares and its percentage to total area.
E. Soil. There exists only one (1) type of soil in the municipality of Imelda, which is San Manuel
clay cloam. This is shown in Table 02 with its depth measurement soil parts and the soil description.
F. Geology. There is no available data on the geologic features of Imelda, and as such, we cannot

3.5 Rainfall
Rainfall is brought about by weather patterns such as different

causes of weather patterns such as air, streams, tropical cyclones,
thunderstorms, the ITCZ, frontal passage, etc. Its intensity or amount is
influenced by latitude or geographical setting, topography and exposure
season. Under certain conditions, surfeit or rainfall results in a potentially
disastrous phenomenon.
It has been shown in Table 12 that average annual rainfall in 1993 is

259.50 mm. in June (Province Record).

AVERAGE
Wind Velocity/Direction (Provincial Wide)
37
Wind is measured in terms of velocity and its speed is usually expressed

in meters per second (mps) and/or kilometer per hour (kph). The prevailing wind
direction at most station conform with the highest wind speed observed in the
province is 11.7 which occurs in the month of December and the lowest recorded is
3.9 which occurs in the month of April, May, June, August and September.
Temperature
San Lorenzo Ruiz has a relatively cold than the average temperature
recorded in the Province of Camarines Norte due to its elevation. Since, the
province has an average of 26.9 O C recorded in 1993. The hottest month is June
and the coldest is February (Table 14).
Humidity
The average annual relative humidity for the province is 83%. For 1993,
almost all monthly values of relative humidity is greater than 80% except for
November and December which posted more than 90%.
Weather Disturbances
All regions over the country are exposed to typhoons, since the divisions
are mainly longitudinal in character and the frequency is latitudinal type.
Of the weather disturbance, tropical cyclones are the most destructive

because aside from heavy rains, which they release, they are accompanied by
strong winds.
From 1985 to 1993 a number of tropical disturbances hit the province but
the worst was in 1993 where “Typhoon Monang” brought a great number of losses
with a frequency of 173 kilometer per hour (kph), 51 pints higher from tropical storm
“Saling” in 1989 with a frequency of only about 122 kph (Table 16).

Recyclables such as dry cardboards, aluminums, papers, metals, tincans, plastic

bags, aluminum and such other recyclables items are to be sold directly to the
junkshop. The biodegradable conversion to compost is mostly from kitchen, backyard
and only a fraction of about 1.2 kilos every market day. While diverted non-
biodegradable or recyclable items could not be determined as it directly handled by
household junk buyers.
4.3 Generated Wastes
Kitchen food wastes, yard waste and all other biodegradable wastes generated
mostly by household shall be used in the composition facility.
Hazardous wastes are to be brought to the Municipal MRF for treatment and
final disposal with close coordination with DENR-EMB.
58
Legal / Institutional Framework
The Solid Waste Management Board is responsible in handling the entire waste
management activities to include garbage collection, processing and sorting for residual
containment operation, municipal street sweepers and IEC program initiatives. The lifestyle
change project focused on the changed behavior as a mechanism for sustainability. The whole
initiative of capacitating people towards change to promote waste diversion at source is
already a process of ensuring sustainability. People’s attempt at such segregation is already a
manifestation of change in people’s attitude and orientation towards waste. See Structure for
IEC Program headed by a Manager.

establishment shall be determined by the clustered barangays. The residual wastes will be
temporarily deposited in the barangay MRF.
Sectors to target
Composting is the process that produces soil conditioner/enhancer. It is considered an

income generating activity, and collecting and selling recyclables materials also generates
income for the scavengers. Target sectors for this are farmers for the composting and
scavengers for recyclable wastes and junkshop owners.
Materials to be addressed are the non-biodegradable, they will be segregated in
accordance with these categories. Those that are saleable shall be diverted and be brought
directly to the market for sale.
It is also encouraged that every household, establishments, institutions and market
should segregate their waste and establish a composting activity. With this initiative, it will
not just reduce the volume of waste to be collected but also will help in the economic wellbeing
of every sector due to generation and production of soil conditioner/enhancer. In effect
only residual wastes shall be subject for collection while the recyclable ones may either be
sold out at junkshop or be stored at the MRF.

policy enhances the implementation of segregated collection.
The municipality likewise devised a strategy relative to the monitoring of
81
segregation at the barangay level. (Enclosed matrix for the current monitoring tool
re: segregation at source).
Recycling
One of the major components of waste management is recycling. The identified

recyclable materials at the household level will be brought mainly to the Barangay MRF
(Barangay collection) to be picked up by Mobile Buyers. The recyclables collected by the
municipality will be brought to the Central MRF in the Eco-Center. The remaining recyclables
(e.g. plastics, sando bags, etc.) will be deposited to the Eco-Center’s Central MRF
for future processing and recycling. As part of the recycling strategy, the municipality
recommends amendments to building ordinances, requiring newly constructed buildings to
provide storage space, devices, or systems that will facilitate source separation and storage of
designated recyclable materials.
82
Implementation:
Residential Areas:
a. Segregated recyclables shall be properly stored before collection. These

recyclables shall be collected separately and brought to the recycling center, eco-centers
or junk dealers.
b. Local waste managers shall be designated in every barangay who shall oversee the
collection of the recyclables and shall be responsible in coordinating with the
accredited dealers of manufacturers of the recycle product.
c. Food and kitchen refuse shall be collected as fodder or feeds for animals those
portion that are not suitable as fodder shall be composted.

waste consist of two kinds (a) firewood materials consist of twigs, branches,
leaves, husk, shells, cobs, chaffs, saw dust, wood shaving, soiled papers, biogases,
stalks, etc.; and (b) flammable gas-produced by anaerobic decomposition of all
biomass or biodegradable materials in biogas digester.
Commercial Areas:
a. Segregation of waste from commercial areas (shopping malls, restaurant,
commercial complexes, recreational center, etc.) shall be mandatory before
issuance of or renewal of business permits.
b. Markets / Agoras shall adopt the segregation scheme that will facilitate the
segregation of recyclable, foods/vegetables waste, non-recyclable, etc.

Composting/ Management of Biodegradable Waste

Composting
All biodegradable materials that will be collected by the municipality will be
composted either by windrow or vermin-composting. The necessary carbon material for
enhancing digestion such as; rice hull, sawdust, etc., will be introduced in the
biodegradable waste pile windrows. The huge biodegradable heaps will be processed at
the composting facility of the Eco- Agri Park. The compost product will be introduced to
the municipality’s vast agricultural area as an enhancer or soil conditioner.
Vermin-Composting:
85
Biodegradable waste shall be shredded into small particles and stock in sacks for 15 days
for decomposition and put to the compost bin with the presence of vermin-worm (Night
Crawler). Moist the biodegradable material every day for biological decomposition under
controlled predominantly aerobic conditions to a state that is sufficiently stable for
nuisance free storage and handling and is satisfactorily matured for safe use in
agriculture.
Compost must be produced through a process that combines plant and animal
materials with an initial C: N ratio of between 25:1 and 40:1
Aside from composting facility established by the municipal government, all households
are enjoined to have their backyard composting activity at home. With this, initiative, they may
able to produce soil enhancer for their own consumption without spending so much expenses
purchasing in-organic fertilizer they need. Every barangay household is monitored by their
Barangay Kagawad, chairman committee on environmental protection.
Marketing
The Municipality markets the recyclable materials and electronic wastes to the Mobile
Buyers operating in the municipality. Likewise, Rain-fed farmers and vegetable planters were the
target markets for the compost produced to promote the utilization of soil conditioner/enhancer
out from the processed green wastes and other biodegradable waste materials.
Disposal
After passing through all prescribed waste processing treatments such as composting,
segregation at source or at the MRF, etc., the remaining 10-20% will remain as residual waste.
This waste fraction consists of non-recyclables as well as multi-component parts unable to
segregate due to contamination, small sizes or other reasons. The treatment for residual waste is
to dispose it in a residual containment area (RCA). In order to reduce the environmental impacts
related to waste disposal leachate collection pond and biological treatment are being established
which hinder the seepage of waste pollutants thus controls negative impacts of leachate
contamination to the underground water.
SW Disposal Capacity
86
The Local Government Unit is searching a Vacant lot of at least one hectare to purchased
Utilized as an open dumping site, Centralized Material Recovery Facility, Residual Care area
and Composting Facility. With estimated lifespan of Ten (10) to Twelve (12) years.
Proposed Facilities
The municipality of San Lorenzo Ruiz is proposing to establish an “Eco-Center”

which is an integrated solid waste management system where vital facility were installed for the
mass composting of biodegradable materials, recycling of the non-biodegradable residual wastes
to enable the municipality to comply with the mandatory waste diversion and installation of final
disposal facility (residual containment area).
The approach of technology used in project implementation is entirely a pioneering
application since the system is an integration of a waste processing area for biodegradable and
non-biodegradable waste, a residual containment area (RCA) utilizing the space at the final
disposal area for the residual waste such as (plastic cellophane, candy and biscuit wrappers).
Special Wastes
The Municipality is responsible in bringing toxic, hazardous, and health center, birthing
facilities, Tb-dots center and laboratory wastes into the drop center and disposed of in a
designated area in the final disposal site. However, prior to final disposal the pre-treated wastes
(e.g. syringe, needles) will be stored in a high-density plastic container after which such
container is sealed with concrete. Likewise, other recyclables extracted in some of the selected
hazardous waste (e.g. used motor batteries) will be brought to its appropriate recyclers for further
treatment and proper disposal.
Information, Education, and Communication (IEC)
Special Bodies Meeting / SWMB Meeting;

The Technical Working Group on Solid Waste Management go house to house
campaign to educate clients on garbage collection for proper solid waste disposal;
Continuous Information Education Campaign in various barangays and purok-purok;
IEC in various Elementary School;
Meeting / Dialogue of the Department Heads concerned with the Poultry and
87
Backyard Piggery Owners;

Massive information dissemination at different schools through PTA meetings,
information drive and integration in the different lessons;
Contacting and utilizing school personnel to help in the dissemination on proper solid
waste management; and
Massive information and education campaign to all brgy. Officials, household
owners, establishment owners and vendors.
Introduction
The target participants in the conduct of IEC were the Sangguniang Barangays, households,
business establishments, institutions, religious institutions, and other areas identified during the
course of implementation. The conduct of IEC is implemented in accordance with the
Implementing Rules and Regulation (IRR) set in the R.A. 9003 and its methodology is likewise
designed to advocate and reach as to many citizens as possible and be oriented in the mechanics
of SWM. Stressed in the campaign was the need for a serious and sincere “lifestyle change” that
will ease the overhaul of the personal and societal practices that contribute to the generation and
mismanagement of waste in the households, businesses, and institutional establishments.
Core Messages
The project training modules will have patterned those developed by the Solid Waste
Association of the Philippines (SWAPP), to be adapted by the Municipality of San Lorenzo Ruiz
environs and viewed through Power Point Software.
Approach
Two fliers will be developed. The first discussed ecological solid waste management and
its principles. Composting principles, especially in application to home and kitchen waste, will
be discussed in the other flier. These materials were distributed to the Sangguniang Barangay
and all other groups that underwent the ESWM trainings. Three (3) posters with similar
advocacy relative to ESWM information will be posted around strategic areas in the municipality
like the market, LGU offices, schools, churches. Banners with five (5) different information on
88
ESWM will be constructed out from plastic sack cloth and will be likewise distributed to
participating barangays for posting in strategic areas.
Barangay Training on Ecological Solid Waste Management (ESWM)
The Barangays will be given training/seminar workshop with 30 participants per

barangay. These will have composed of the whole Sangguniang Barangay, Secretary, Treasurer,
Day Care Teacher, Barangay Health Worker, and selected tanods, puroks leaders, and point or
model households of the barangay. The training will enable them to formulate their vision and
mission statements, which will be incorporated in the barangay plan. Each barangay is provided
with a “Barangay Training Manual on Ecological Solid Waste Management” that contains
pertinent information and references useful for planning and implementing ESWM.
Various cross visits to different “puroks” and “sitios” in nearby municipalities were also
facilitated to observe exemplary waste management practices and enable the participants to gain
insights for them to apply their respective barangays.

Implementation Strategy
Discussion of the logistics of how the solid waste management system will be implemented.
The Municipality formulates a logistical framework (LOGFRAME) for the implementation of
the solid waste management system.
Framework
Overview of the program to be implemented, generator segment by year include

source reduction, recycling management of biodegradable disposal and alternative
technologies.
properly sealed, preferably in plastic containers, prior to their temporary
storage at the assigned receptacles and the “drop off” centers strategically
located within the commercial establishments of the municipality.
Solid wastes generated from establishments shall be segregated into
biodegradable, recyclables, residuals, toxic and hazardous wastes. These
particular wastes should be duly segregated and shall be placed in an enclosed
bag prior to their storage in the assigned receptacles within the premises of the
establishments.
Health Center, Birthing Facilities, TB Dots Center, Laboratory, pharmaceutical
and mortuary wastes shall be stored, collected, transported and disposed of in
accordance with pertinent national laws, rules and regulations and guidelines of
other agencies of the government like the Department of Health.
Construction debris shall be disposed of by and with the expense of the owner
of the building, contractor, sub-contractor or whoever the in- charge of the
construction.
One of the major components of waste management is recycling. The identified
90
recyclable materials at the household level will be brought mainly to the Proposed
Barangay MRF (Barangay collection) to be picked up by the junkshops. The recyclables
collected by the municipality will be brought to the Proposed Central MRF in the Eco-
Center. The remaining recyclables (e.g. plastics, sando bags, etc.) will be deposited to the
Eco-Center’s Central MRF for future processing and recycling. As part of the recycling
strategy, the municipality recommends amendments to building ordinances, requiring
newly constructed buildings to provide storage space, devices, or systems that will
facilitate source separation and storage of designated recyclable materials.
All biodegradable materials that will be collected by the municipality will be

composted either by windrow or vermin-composting. The necessary carbon material for
enhancing digestion such as; rice hull, sawdust, etc., will be introduced in the
biodegradable waste pile windrows.
The Municipality is responsible in bringing toxic, hazardous, and health center,
birthing facilities, tb-dots center and laboratory wastes into the drop center and disposed
of in a designated area in the final disposal site. However, prior to final disposal the pre-
treated wastes (e.g. syringe, needles) will be stored in a high-density plastic container
after which such container is sealed with concrete.
Likewise, other recyclables extracted in some of the selected hazardous waste (e.g.
used motor batteries) will be brought to its appropriate recyclers for further treatment and
proper disposal.
After passing through all prescribed waste processing treatments such as segregation
at source, recycling, composting or at the MRF, etc., the remaining 10-20% will remain
as residual waste. This waste fraction consists of nonrecyclables as well as multi-
component parts unable to segregate due to contamination, small sizes or other reasons.
The treatment for residual waste is to dispose it in a residual containment area(RCA).
In order to reduce the environmental impacts related to waste disposal leachate collection
pond and biological treatment are being established which hinder the seepage of waste
pollutants thus controls negative impacts of leachate contamination to the underground
water.
Goal:
91
An enhanced ecologically balance and sustainable Municipality of San Lorenzo Ruiz

Solid Waste Management Program.
Objectives:
1. To establish a waste processing and final disposal facility.
2. To set up an effective Solid Waste Collection System.
3. To undertake rehabilitation and closure of Municipal Controlled Dumpsite.
4. To institutionalize IEC, monitoring and enforcement mechanism for the municipality’s
SWM Program.
Monitoring Program
The municipality has adopted a Citizens Monitoring and Feedback Mechanism (CMFM)
tool to be able to monitor barangay compliance with respect to enforcing the
implementation of R.A. 9003 at the barangay level. Enclosed various tools for
compliance/
monitoring.
Monthly Accomplishment Report from every barangay will be required to be submitted
to the MENRO Designate to check the activities implemented on solid waste
management programs.
Alternative Analysis
The municipality has no other option of waste diversion except for the utilization of
central material recovery facility and barangay MRFs for the processing of bio and non-
bio wastes in order to increase waste diversion.
Incentive Programs
Annual Search for the Cleanest & Greenest Barangay
The yearly award giving to the Cleanest & Greenest Barangay held Before the Boyuboy
Festival (Every August) And Awarded during the Barangay Night together with the
awarding of other Festivals Activities.
Institutional Aspect – Planned structure for the implementation of plan
Roles
It shall be the responsibility of the Municipal Solid Waste Management Board to
formulate plans and policies as regards to the solid waste management program of the
municipality and approved by the municipal mayor. The municipality, through the Sangguniang
92
Bayan shall enact laws and ordinances consistent with the priorities identified by the MSWMB.
The municipal mayor as head of the municipality shall execute and implement programs and
projects relative to solid waste management.
The barangay shall create a Barangay Solid Waste Management Committee responsible
to prepare plans and programs pertaining to proper implementation of garbage disposal.
Consultation meetings and conferences are regularly held involving all stakeholders. They are
allowed to share ideas as additional inputs for an effective plan formulation.
The Municipal Solid Waste Management Board is the policy-making body which sets the
overall solid waste management program thrust-geared toward the institutionalization and
ensures sustainability of its operation in accordance with the Municipality’s (10) Year Solid
Waste Management Plan which is in harmony with the provision of the R.A. 9003 and other
environmental related laws. Private entities and institution as generators, citizens, NGOs and
recycling companies shall be empowered and get involved in the government effort to properly
implement the solid wastes management program. Their active participation in the plan
formulation is enjoined.
Participatory Approach
The local government recognized that success of solid waste management does not just lies on
the technical methods in disposing waste. Thus, people’s participation was utilized wherein all sectors of
the community were targeted to become involved in waste diversion at their level. These include the
private/industrial/agricultural sector, the schools, the 12 barangays and all households. Citizens are
further given the responsibility to manage waste in the purok level.
Waste Minimization and Increase Waste Diversion
Due to the focus of the Lifestyle Change Project to promote waste diversion at source,
such source segregation is already evidently practiced with households, industries, schools,
barangays and different community institutions doing their own respective SWM initiatives.
Regular waste characterization revealed the decreasing trend in waste contamination reaching to
only 3% in non-biodegradable currently waste contamination in biodegradables is also down to
3%. This makes it easier for the garbage collection team and the Eco-Centre to further segregate
93
and divert waste. Currently, waste diversion at the Eco-Centre reached an impressive 70% which
is more than the 25% required by R.A. 9003.
Behavioral Change Approach

The Local Government of San Lorenzo Ruiz went beyond the conventional solid waste
management program of using an efficient collection system and infrastructure. Instead, it
embarked on a comprehensive education and advocacy that sought to change people’s behavior
towards responsible waste management. While information, education and communication are
enunciated in R.A. 9003, the Behavioral Change Approach is based on an education platform
that enables the target audience to learn the positive or negative consequences of their action. It
further focuses on the benefits derived from positive waste management practice thus leading to
individual and group motivation.
Legal
The municipality has been planning to work out specific ordinance relative to
enforcement entitled “AN ORDINANCE DECLARING CERTAIN PROHIBITED ACTS
REGARDING WASTE DISPOSAL AND PROVIDING PENALTIES THERE OF’’ which
have gone already its public hearing and be soon passed. It manifested its commitment to
collaborate and participatory form of governance by entering into a partnership with a Non-
Government Organization, to implement the initial phase of the SWM program – the
information, education and communication initiative. The Solid Waste Management Board
recognized that such technical component/facilities are useless if the source of the waste,
households and institutions do not exercise responsibility in segregation. The Board will design
the IEC initiative to go beyond just the simple manner of providing knowledge but was directed
towards changing people’s attitude and behavior emphasizing early on project planning and
design that waste management is people’s responsibility.
Social and Environmental Aspects
Even at the beginning of the solid waste management initiative, the local government
recognized that service delivery could be done by other community institutions. It manifested its
commitment to collaborative and participatory form of governance by entering into a partnership
94
with a Non-Government Organization, to implement the initial phase of the SWM program – the
information, education, and communication initiative. The Solid Waste Management Board
recognized that such technical component/facilities are useless if the source of the waste,
households and institutions, do not exercise responsibility in segregation. The Board will design
the IEC initiative to go beyond just the simple manner of providing knowledge but was directed
towards changing people’s attitude and behavior, emphasizing early on project planning and
design that waste management is people’s responsibility. It is important to note that the decision
to make IEC as the primary initiative is to highlight the need to capacitate and empower people
to responsibly manage waste at the source level. There was a realization that capacity-building
leads people to develop a sense of ownership.
Social Aspects
The waste diversion efficiency expresses the fact that citizen responsibility is increasing
with most households doing segregation efforts. This also indicates that the avowed goal of
changing lifestyle that promotes individual and household responsibility in solid waste
management is taking root. In this manner, the project has significantly changed people’s attitude
and orientation towards waste. Policies of the government, whether those stipulated in R.A. 9003
as well as the LGU policy of “No Segregation, No Collection” could not be realized without
people’s new knowledge and changed behavior in segregating and diverting waste. Proof of such
change is exhibited in the different manner by which community associations and institutions are
initiating their own respective SWM initiatives. All Twelve (12) Barangays have been covered in
the IEC campaign. All barangays have also established their own Materials Recovery Facility.
Environmental Aspects
For the Proposed Purchased of Sanitary Landfill the Local Government Unit of San Lorenzo
Ruiz has an existing allocation the only hindrance is that the difficulty to find a suitable and
agreeable location based on the amount of the allocation of the Municipality.
Cost Estimates/Financial Aspects
The Solid Waste Management Program of LGU San Lorenzo Ruiz is being financed
through the 20% Development Fund (20% of the Internal Revenue Allotment or IRA) as source
95
of fund. The yearly budget is being deliberated annually (which usually falls on the 3 rd quarter of
the year) under the auspices of the Local Finance Committee.
USER FEES FOR SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT SERVICES
a. Commercial, industrial/institutional, establishments shall be charge an annual garbage

fees as stipulated in the Municipal Revenue Code (Payment shall be made to the
Municipal
Treasurer of the Municipal Government of Mina).
b. Residential units covered within the collection points shall be charge an amount
depending on the rate as approved by the Barangay Solid Waste Management
Committee.
However, the amount shall not to exceed P500.00.
Trust Fund Creation
The main bottleneck of implementing SWM program for LGUs is funding or how to
source out financing for its implementation on a regular basis. The common source of funds is
actually taken from the coffers of the 20% Development Fund which is apparently dwindling due
to a significant number of emerging cities. Thus, municipality of San Lorenzo Ruiz tries to make
innovation by establishing a solid waste management trust fund. This fund is intended to finance
solid waste management projects without passing the common procedural steps of having an SB
approval. The source of these funds mainly comes from the sales of recyclables, compost, and
other potential wastes classified as non-contaminated residuals otherwise known as alternative
fuel and raw materials or AFR and cash award incentives from various Provincial, Regional and
National SWM competition.
