Section 17 of the Local
Government Code mandates
LGUs to provide an efficient and
effective solid waste collection
and disposal system under a
comprehensive environmental
management program.

products like straw mats, bags, and
candles in the facilitys MRF to be sold
later. The biodegradable materials are
milled and put into the automatic soil

used in their vegetable garden where

ISSUES/PROBLEMS
Department Head of Waste
Management identified three
main issues:
Workers who are not fully
committed to their work
Outdated equipment: shredder
is currently less able to produce;
old truck model units
Difficulty in instilling discipline

GROUPS
ASSESSMENT

GROUPS ASSESSMENT
Methodology used could produce
biased results because only
authorities were interviewed.
Furthermore, reports and data
were all provided by the
barangay and none was
collected from the residents.

GROUPS ASSESSMENT
The local enterprise is a good
strategy in providing jobs as well
as in encouraging participative
governance.

GROUPS ASSESSMENT
Despite changing administration,
the barangay continues to
implement Zero Waste
management because of the
recognition it receives from
various institutions locally and
internationally.

ANSWER TO THE PROBLEM

As said earlier, the Zero Waste
Management Program of Brgy.
Holy Spirit began six years before
the enactment of RA 9003. With
its recycling and composting
initiatives, it was proved to be
an innovative program that
helped the Barangay reduce its
waste volume to about 60%.

RECOMMENDATIONS
The local enterprise could be
expanded and be made more
marketable through expanding
target market and partnerships.
Identify specific indicators of
success of the project (e.g.:
increased mortality rate,
frequency of inundation in times
of typhoon)

RECOMMENDATIONS
Partnership within LGUs
New equipment
Constant supervision/monitoring
(of personnel and of current
equipment)
Improve information campaigns
Reduce the no. of people living
near creeks
