OFFICE OF THE MAYOR
Together with the Message

people of Guagua, I am
glad to present the 10-Year Municipal Solid
Waste Management Plan – covering the
period 2015-2024. The plan describes how
we will manage our solid waste in the next
10 years and in accordance with the
mandates of RA 9003 or the Ecological
Solid Waste Management Act.
We place strong urgency in the
management of solid wastes because
improper waste disposal causes decay in
our drainage systems and waterways
which, in turn, contribute to flooding and
social disruption, and consequently impact
the local economy and public health
negatively.
Partnership with the Provincial and
Barangay governments is essential in our
pursuit for cleaner communities. And
although waste management
responsibilities primarily lie with the
government, the ultimate success of our
SWM programs will be attained though the
involvement of all stakeholders in their
implementation.
Apparently, there are huge challenges
ahead, as we strive to bring about clean,2
green and wholesome communities.
Therefore, I call on every Guaguaeño – to
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
In accordance with the mandates of Republic Act 9003 or the Ecological Solid Waste
Management Act of 2000, the Municipal Government of Guagua, formulated this 10
—Year Solid Waste Management Plan, covering the period 2015-2024. This Plan
describes how the local government will manage the town’s solid waste over the
next ten (10) years, and projects the town’s needs for solid waste services,
equipment and facilities. Furthermore, the plan describes how those needs will be
met and paid for, and how to communicate identified strategies to all stakeholders.
To make the plan more reflective of the true SWM condition of the town, the
Technical Working Group coordinated the conduct of Waste Characterization Surveys
(WACS). The WACS was necessary to identify SWM gaps between the current system
and the future needs.
The plan illustrates how the municipality shall reach the mandated diversion goals
through segregation at source, segregated collection, and proper disposal
(particularly partnership with Holcim Cement Corp. and Metro Clark SWM Corp.).
Our “Waste Diversion” target 75% and 86% (at the beginning and end of the planning
period, respectively) is a clear indicator or quantifiable measurement that monitors
the performance with regard to solid waste management. Incentive programs such as
giving our awards play important role in achieving excellent performance.
Effective legal, political and institutional frameworks are necessary to develop, carry
out the programs, projects and activities identified in the Solid Waste Management
Plan. The Municipal government through the
MENRO shall coordinate all efforts from different Municipal Offices, private and other
public organizations towards achieving identified targets on minimizing waste
generation.
Having legal authority, sufficient financial allocation and institutional capacity are
pre-requisites for the success of this plan in achieving overall vision and specific goals
and strategies. Towards this, the Municipal Government shall exhaust possibilities to
institutionalize the MENRO Office for the sustainable implementation and
coordination of all solid waste management related programs.
Investment on SWM facilities and equipment is imperative for efficient and

sustainable SWM Programs and for achieving set goals. Upgrading facilities and
equipment for collection, recycling, and disposal can be very costly.
The attendant cost of this capital expenditure while will required trade-offs with
limited resources of the Municipal Government, will likewise result in application of
innovative financial skill such as review of current fees, levied to business
establishments; increased revenue from sale of compost fertilizer (through proper
marketing) and other products made from recyclable wastes; and proper imposition
of fines and penalties to violators of SWM ordinances. The financial aspect of the
3
SWM Plan were properly identified through such means as making investment
programs more realistic, setting attainable standards and target, and making
operation more efficient.
The core of this plan is to enjoin all local residents/sectors to pursue the path of
proper Solid Waste Management that draws attention to segregation at source,
waste reduction, and waste recycling instead of just trying to cope with ever-
increasing amounts of waste through treatment and disposal. These efforts will help
our Municipal Government to reduce the financial burden on waste management.
Therefore, this plan is formulated to contain appropriate policy options that need to
be adapted to work towards long term goals and provide an enabling framework to
promote SWM in accordance with the provision of RA 9003.

CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
1.1 PURPOSE
 Municipality’s Vision Related To Solid Waste Management
The Municipal Government of Guagua envisions a higher quality of life for its
people. An important element of which is a balanced and healthy environment
that is suitable for communal and individual survival.
 Key Issues Facing The Community
The town of Guagua, being the nucleus of outgrowth in Pampanga 2 nd district, is

beset with issues on sanitation and cleanliness. Residents from neighboring
towns frequent the town for varied reasons, such as availing health services and
education, transacting with universal banks stationed here, trading (vending) and
many others.
Cognizant of this escalating trend on sanitation problems, as exacerbated by the

growing consumerist trade and the increasing population, the town leadership is
cognizant of the need to provide a blueprint that shall outline the proposals to
avert possible degradation. The problem on garbage, if not attended will
redound to other disadvantages on health, business ant the physical make-up of
the town. Thus this 10 year Solid Waste Management plan is being put in place.
One of the initial undertakings of the local leadership is the issuance of Executive
Order No. 12-S-2013 which reactivated the Municipal Solid Waste Management
Board. He designated Mr. Carlito D. Nicdao as the interim MENRO. This was
necessary to put together a cohesive solid waste management program under
one office.
 Goals
The plan was prepared to comply with the provisions of R.A. 9003. It embodies
the legal authority, regulatory responsibility, and accountability of the municipal
government of Guagua in putting together a comprehensive, coherent and
practicable solid waste management system.
Higher value is given to the importance of the participation of the whole

community (households, academe, private businesses, NGOs, etc.) in putting
together a workable system in SWM that commences at segregation-at-source
towards final disposal. This plan likewise outlines the coordination between all
levels of government (national, provincial, municipal and barangay) in addressing
5
pressing issues through capacity build-up, data gathering (i.e. WACS), increasing
public awareness (on health and ecological hazards of non-compliance with RA
9003), budgetary allocations / capital expenditures, legislative measures, etc.
 Intent of RA 9003 and Its Effect on Solid Waste Management
The provisions of the recently enacted Republic Act 9003 or the Ecological Solid
Waste Management Act shall provide the guidelines in the formulation of this
plan. The Municipal Government is cognizant of the need to develop the most
appropriate waste management programs that is coherent with the principles of
this law.
1.2 APPROACH
 Approach Used In Preparing Plan
This Solid Waste Management Plan embraces the entire territorial limits of
Guagua and its thirty-one barangays. It is a ten year plan to cover the years 2015-
2024.
The formulation of this plan involved the participation of all major stakeholders.
Municipal officers/employees task to carry out the solid waste management
program of the municipality have conducted several consultative meetings to
come up with the best strategies. Representatives from the private sector and
Non-governmental organizations were likewise engaged during the meetings and
discussions, thus providing valuable insights and recommendations, and most
importantly their participation in carrying out the proposed program. Their
comments were taken into consideration in developing the plan goals and
intended actions.
Another significant approach in the preparation of this plan is Lakbay-Aral

activities undertaken by municipal officers and employees in other local
government units with outstanding SWM programs and are apt for replication in
our local setting.
 Data Sources
The information/data presented in this plan were gathered from various
governmental agencies, particularly the Department of Environment and Natural
Resources and its daughter offices. Data projections and forecasting were
calculated with much precision and carefulness to reflect the genuine condition
of the present and the coming future relative to solid waste management.

CHAPTER 2
MUNICIPAL PROFILE
2.1 LOCATION
 Location of The Municipality
The Municipality of Guagua is one of the twenty-one towns of

the Province of Pampanga, Philippines. Along with the towns of Lubao, Porac, Sta.
Rita, Floridablanca and Sasmuan, Guagua belongs to the 2nd District of Pampanga.
Located on the western part of the province, Guagua is about 9.5 kilometers off the
City of San Fernando, and approximately 77 kilometers away from Metropolitan
Manila. The town is bounded on the north by the towns of Bacolor and Sta. Rita; on
the south by the towns of Sasmuan and Lubao; on the east, Macabebe and Sasmuan;
and on the west, Porac and Floridablanca.
Guagua composed of 31 jurisdictional units or barangays. For political and economic

purposes, it is subdivided into four (4) sectoral areas
 Land Area
The land area of the municipality of Guagua is 4,867 hectares
2.2 HISTORY
Wawa which means "river mouth" (Pampangan: alua or bukana), was the earliest
recorded form of the town's name according to records dating back to 1590. The
town is strategically located along a river, which played a vital role in trade and
transportation during the precolonial era.
Wawa was already a prosperous settlement when Spanish colonists took control of
the town in the year 1561, from then on calling it Guagua, which is a Hispanised form
of the original name. Indeed, archeological artifacts have been excavated in a nearby
town which affirmed the existence of a prehistoric community in Guagua.
Early inhabitants opted to stay in the town because it was here that they could
engage in barter trade with people from different islands, along with other means of
livelihood like fishing and farming. The navigable river with which the town was
endowed allowed shipping vessels to transport commodities to and from other chief
localities, particularly the imperial Manila. The first cargo boat to arrive in Guagua
was the Doña Dominga on 7 May 1884. Much later it was followed by the steamships
8
Kaibigan and Kababayan, which anchored at the pier in Bgy.Santo Niño, better
known as the Yañgco Landing.
In 1892, when the Manila–Mabalacat railroad was inaugurated, Guagua was virtually
the port of embarkation to and from Manila that served the province. Commerce
was further improved when the San Fernando–Guagua line of the railroad was
chartered on 17 November 1907.
The Chinese have long been part in Guagua's social and economic mainstream. In the
18th century, they sought refuge in the town to escape discrimination and
persecution in Manila. After their near-total slaughter, the Chinese lived in relative
peace while they freely practiced their craft and mingled hand-in-hand with the local
residents. The Chinese residents were merchants, masons, woodcarvers, carpenters,
agriculturists and laborers. Their influence on the cultural and economic life of
Guagua cannot be overlooked. The town could not have prospered so well without
the economic services provided by the Chinese.
The town took significant part in the revolutionary struggles against the foreign
intruders. A house near a church was made a secret cell of the Katipuneros in August
1897. In March 1898, a massacre of all Spanish sympathizers in Guagua marked the
end of Spanish colonialism and the outset of American rule. Moreover, during the
Philippine–American War and the ensuing Second World War, Guagua became an
important battleground.
At the turn of the twentieth century, a new system of education was introduced and
made popular and available to the Filipinos. The Guagua Elementary School in Bgy.
Santa Filomena, is believed to be the first to be established in the town in the year
1901. Later in that year, an English teacher came to Betis district and opened a
primary school which functioned on a regular basis. In 1908,
ColegiodelSagradoCorazón de Jesús (now St Mary's Academy in Bgy. San Roque) was
established in a two-storey building donated by a charitable matron, in downtown
Guagua. Later in 1918, Guagua National Institute (now Guagua National Colleges in
Bgy. Santa Filomena) was founded at the convent of the Catholic Church. Further, in
1941, the then-parish priest felt the need for another high school in town, so he
opened Saint Michael's College.
At the rebirth of the Philippine democracy in 1986, the local government carried out
the "Integrated Approach Towards Sustainable Development" to rectify its destitute
state. The program gained several outstanding citations for its momentous
achievement. From a mere "third class" standing in 1986, Guagua has grown to
become a "first class" municipality. The sound fiscal status and effective governance
brought forwards, translated to better and effective public service, and made Guagua
a consistent recipient of several "Most Outstanding LGU" awards.

2.4. Economic Profile/Land Use
The healthy economic life in Guagua as engendered by its location (as the focal point
of different activities in southern part of Pampanga), lured many business/people to
capitalize on apparent and imaginable potentials for higher returns. Guagua has
established its niche in education, business, trade, transport, tertiary health services,
financial services and many others. The impact of floodwater discharge (during the
rainy seasons), while lately, has substantially receded due to effective disaster control
projects, necessitates further engineering intervention to counter the decline in the
town's physical elevation. Also, this measure may well boost business confidence.
Agricultural activities in Guagua are contained in almost 90% of the town's total land
area. In 21 of its 31 barangays, agriculture captures a crucial position in labor
absorption. Farming, the primary activity, brings forth both traditional and cash
crops. Effective area for farming is endowed with irrigation facilities making local
production at par with normal standards.
12
The Central Business District is the primary urban core of the town. With an
aggregate area of 146 has., it comprises the parts of Brgy. Plaza Burgos, Sto. Niño,
Sta. Filomena, San Roque, San Nicolas 1st, and Sto.Cristo. It stretches 600 meters
along the McArthur Hi-way from Brgy. San Roque towards the boundary of
Brgys.Sto.Cristo and San Pedro; 300 meters along the Guagua-Sasmuan Road from
Plaza Burgos towards the end of Brgy.Sto.Nino; 3000 meters of the Guagua-Sta. Rita-
Porac Road in Brgy. San Roque; all the stretches of CF De Mesa St., Cardinal Santos
St., Calle Rizal and Burgos, Magsaysay Feeder Road, R. Balagtas St., and the Public
Market area; and the interior roads and area of the barangays covered.
The land use trend within the CBD area shall accommodate high density commercial
uses on account of the expanding pattern of growth within the district particularly
along the sprawl of Brgy. Plaza Burgos and the Public Market area. The financial
establishments, fast food stores/restaurants, retail trade businesses, hospitals, and
academic centers, presently stationed within the district, may well expand operations
in the future, given their widening market and the demand for innovative goods and
services. Consequently, however, traffic congestion may worsen in the area and thus,
may compel the establishment of a common terminal for public utility jeepneys
along the outskirts of the CBD, to prevent passenger vehicles from lingering in streets
critical to traffic build-up.
The Public Market is located in Brgy. Sto.Niño. However it shall undergo physical
improvements to arrest possible economic decay brought by poor access network
due to the proliferation of ambulant vendors. The renovation of some existing
buildings into multi-level facilities shall be encouraged to allow a better interaction of
sellers and buyers of differentiated goods, with emphasis, however, of a sanitary
market environment.
However, the upwelling of urbanization within the CBD and the object to turn the
town into an effective growth center in Pampanga-2nd District, necessitate the
radiation of growth. Thus, to round out development in the CBD (as the central
dominant area), a nodal pattern shall be established in three areas radiating from it
(CBD): (1) GSO Road and Guagua-Sta. Rita-Porac Road junction in Brgy. San Matias,
(2) GSO Road and Guagua-Lubao-Florida Road junction in Brgys.San Antonio and Jose
Abad Santos, and (3) Betis area. These growth centers shall be developed for
commercial, residential and institutional uses.
Financial establishments, retail trade, hotels, and restaurants shall be inspired to

locate within the core of the radius of the GSO junction in San Matias, and
complement the growing business environment in the area. The proposed
government center may station along the skirt of this buoyed growth node before
the end of the planning period in 2010 to complement development efforts in the
area. Likewise, the strip of land adjoining the heart of the intersection shall be cut
13
off for residential uses and other institutional uses, particularly for the possible
relocation of existing academic centers in the Poblacion area.
The GSO junction in Brgy. San Antonio shall serve as the center of growth for
neighboring barangays as well as the towns of Floridablanca and Lubao. Moreover,
the area shall complement the foreseen economic headway in the San Matias
portion, hence, the establishment of restaurants, hotels, amusement centers,
shopping centers, etc. shall be seen before the end of the planning period.
At both ends of the Guagua portion of the GSO Road, shall locate both pollutive and
non-pollutive industries, Guagua shall enjoy a considerable spill-over effects from the
Subic-Clark merger. These industries will complement those stationed in the two
giant economic hubs.
The Betis area regained its economic viability after the Bacolor interior road
ultimately reopened. Land uses in the interior region are optimized for light
industries (i.e. furniture making) and as a sub-urban setting.

Major transportation routes and traffic conditions
Guagua has a total road network of approximately 36 kilometers that are classified
into five (5) categories: highways, national roads, provincial roads, municipal roads
and barangay roads. As to the type of road pavement, the same is either concrete,
asphalt, gravel compacted or earth-filled.
The exact number of utility vehicles, which are composed of tricycles, jeepneys, and
buses, could not be determined due to proliferation of illegal operation or those not
registered with proper government agencies. Nonetheless, the town can be
conveniently reached from other towns and provinces through buses, mini-buses and
jeepneys plying route to and from Guagua via the Jose Abad Santos Avenue (formerly
GSO Road) or the old MacArthur Highway.
Traffic flow in the entire LGU of Guagua is light to moderate most of the time. Road
and bridges were upgraded and widened to accommodate vehicles passing and going
to the LGU town proper.
2.5 PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS
TOPOGRAPHY AND LAND FEATURES
The town is almost flat and is suitable to any phase of development; agricultural,
industrial, commercial and others. It is only a meter above sea level. The general
slope is south and southeast toward the Pampanga de Bay which drains out into
Manila Bay. Further, Guagua is traversed by several creeks and tributaries during
rainy days, which collect and convey floodwater to the Guaguariver and into the
Manila Bay.
CLIMATE
The climate prevailing in Guagua, like in other parts of Pampanga is Type I - District,
wet and dry seasons. The dry season starts from December until May, with the
months of March, April and May as the driest and hottest. Upon the other hand, wet
season occur from June to November, in which period the rain are heaviest.
SOIL TYPES AND FERTILITY
In general, the soils of Guagua are of recent alluvial origin consisting of fine sand, silt
loam and hydrosol. The average chemical analysis of its top soils is : nitrogen, 0.02 to
0.1; phosphorous, 0.06 to 0.28; potassium, 0.46 to 1.74; organic carbon, 0.41 to 3.02;
and pH value (acidity and alkalinity), 5.61 to 6.99
19
TIMBER, MINERAL AND NON-MINERAL RESOURCES
Guagua, being a non-mountainous community is not graced with either timber,

mineral and non-mineral resources. The town's needs on these materials come from
outside sources.
FLORA AND FAUNA
The climate and topographical features of the vast land of Guagua make it ideal for
the growing of fruit trees and vegetables. Among the fruit trees most fitting to be
planted are mangoes, guavas, santol, star apples, and bananas. For vegetables, sitao,
upo, ampalaya, gabi and cucumber are the most commonly produced by farmers and
which thrive best in the community.
Being void of forest areas, its fauna are mostly the domesticated ones like, chicken,
ducks, cattle, and others.

The garbage collected is both segregated and non-segregated. There are still
households that don’t segregate, so the second stage of segregation is done at the
garbage truck and last segregation is at the Municipal Transfer Station.
TRANSFER
27
Ideally, waste segregation starts at the source level (household, businesses, school,
etc.). But in order to achieve this, the 2 nd stage segregation is done at the garbage
truck, and upon reaching the central MRF further and more thorough segregation of
waste is carried out.
3.6. PROCESSING FACILITIES
The LGU has one central MRF, located in Brgy. San Rafael, were all collected
segregated and partially segregated wastes are brought. ‘Holcimable’ plastics are
placed in a designated area where they are baled and then hauled by Holcim Cement
Corp. The capacity of the Central MRF on baled plastics is approximately 60 tons. The
composting facility can process compostable waste at around 10-15 tons. Processed
waste comes from the public market, central business district and 31 barangays.
28
Compostable wastes are processed into fertilizer at
an adjacent area.
While other recyclables are collected by ‘segregators’ which they sell to junk shops.
Furthermore, residual wastes will be brought to sanitary landfill of Metro Clark SWM
Corp. for final disposal.

3.7 FINAL DISPOSAL
The final disposal for residual wastes is the Metro Clark Sanitary Landfill, located in
Calangitan, Capas, Tarlac. The facility is privately owned and started operations on
December 15, 2002.
31
3.8. SPECIAL WASTES
There is minimal amount of special wastes generated per day as revealed by the
WACS conducted (refer to Chapter 4), accounting for only 1% (249.82 kgs.) of total
waste generated/day. There is an allotted albeit temporary container for these
wastes, such as broken bulbs, batteries, paint and other chemical cans, etc.
3.8.1. Health Care Wastes
The LGU has no capacity to handle, manage and collect health care wastes at the
moment. Public and private health facilities contract the services of private haulers
for the disposal of their wastes.
3.8.1. A.Data given by 2 private hospitals (Pampanga Medical Specialists and Rosario
Memorial Hospital) in the LGU, 2.32 tons/month of health care waste is being
collected by private companies.
3.9. MARKET WASTES FOR RECYCLABLES
There are twelve (12) private junkshops operating within the town. The materials
being bought by these junkshops are papers, metals, aluminum, tin, bottles, and hard
plastics. Table 3.6 provides comprehensive lists of private junkshops, including their
address and materials accepted.

Chicharon makers in barangay San Miguel uses rice hull as fuel in their production of
chicharon.
Tinapa makers uses wood chips and dried coco/buko husks as fuel for the production
of smoked fish.
Households near the MRF uses also dried coco husk for cooking.
3.10. IEC
The following are the IEC strategies being conducted by the LGU relative to SWM, to
wit
 Regular Orientation of Barangay Officials, Barangay Health Workers, 4 P’s
beneficiaries on SWM plans, programs, activities and new legislations /
memoranda during their seminars, training and regular meetings /
assemblies.
33
Orientation on R.A 9003  Orientation for households on proper waste
Signages segregation through public address system, posters /

signages, barangay assemblies, radio program (hosted by the
Mayor), and during monthly barangay clean-up activity.
 Public announcement / appeal for the implementation of waste segregation
at source during mass and other religious gatherings.
 Orientation / meetings with school heads, pupils, PTAs during flag raising
ceremony, meetings and assemblies, as well as through the NSTP program
among college students.
Its effect of these different IEC activities, the result is increase awareness among
populace, the importance of segregation of waste, its positive effects to our
environment, and further explaining to audience the negative effect of non-
segregation. Emphasis was also given on participation of all stakeholders regarding
implementation of RA 9003.

3.12. KEY ISSUES
Given the escalating trend of socio-economic activities happening in our town, the
following issues will create impediment in the success of our SWM initiatives, if not
abated or eliminated.
 Low compliance on ‘segregation-at-source’ among households and tolerance

of barangay government of such behavior
 Lack of political will of most local leaders, including limitation of funding in
enforcing the provisions of RA 9003 among their constituents
 Issues on dependability and durability of equipment
 The MENRO office and MENRO officer are created only on interim status
CHAPTER 4
WASTE CHARACTERISTICS
Section 17 of the RA 9003 defines waste characterization as “the identification of

constituent materials which comprise solid waste generated and disposed of within
an area. It identifies constituent materials by volume, percentage in weight or its
volumetric equivalent, material type and source of generation which includes
residential, commercial, industrial, and institutional.” The Act further provides the
35
basic method for doing the WACS, the final result of which is a set of data that shows
the per capita and total waste generation and composition of such waste in a
particular LGU.
This SWM plan is the basic tool and guide of the LGU on how to deal with garbage-
related problems within its scope. Thus, in order to formulate an achievable waste
management plan, the TWG must have knowledge on the type of waste, weight and
volume and composition of wastes generated in Guagua. The data gathered will
guide the TWG in formulating appropriate waste management strategies, designing
facilities, institutional arrangements and provide baseline information to monitor and
evaluate the LGU’s performance in reducing waste generation.
The LGU conducted its WACS covering the dates24, 25, 26, 27, 31 October, 2014.
Activities include orientation of respondents, actual conduct of WACS, and data
tabulation. Household sample size was determined using the Slovin’s formula. Non-
household sample comprised ten percent (10%) distributed into categories (i.e.
schools, food establishments, agricultural and industrial establishments, public
market and private offices).

80% of biodegradable wastes from the barangays are processed and the 20% are
disposed of as residual wastes. Biodegradable wastes from the industrial sector which
are mostly rice mills, furnitures and guitar shops (i.e. saw dust, wood chips and rice hulls
are used as alternative fuels for the production of “chicharon” and the rice brans are
used as animal feeds.)

CHAPTER 6
PLAN STRATEGY
6.1. VISION AND GOALS
“The Municipality of Guagua envisions itself to be ever at the forefront of

environment protection, thus safeguarding its people from ecological and
health hazards and thereby creating clean and wholesome communities,
conducive to sustainable progress.”
This vision encompasses all the municipality’s planned activities/programs on ecological
solid waste management for its constituents.
Our goals include:
 Development of a comprehensive and integrated SWM program and

strategies
 Replication of best practices of other LGUs, relative to RA 9003
 Formulation of an action plan that will provide the guide for the Municipal
and barangay governments to effectively address segregation-at-source and
proper collection
 Allocation of necessary funds and resources from the Annual Budget and/or
source funding from donor agencies (both local and international)
The municipal government, through the MENRO will closely monitor barangays on their
segregation at source and segregated collection schemes.
6.2. TARGETS
The following Table shows the disposal and diversion targets for each year comprising
the 10-year planning period
Table 6.1: Diversion and Disposal Targets (in %): 2015 – 2024

Guagua’s current diversion target is already 75% based on the WACS, with a per
capita generation rate of 0.351 kg./day.
6.3. STRATEGIES
The goal is to achieve the diversion target of 80% by 2019 and 86% by 2023. Sustainable
enhancement of our SWM efforts with the help of better technologies will bring us to
our target. The following strategies will be implemented within and even beyond the 10-
year planning period, if proven beneficial and effective, to wit:
 Intensive IEC
 Strict implementation of RA 9003 and local ordinances
 Exploration of appropriate technologies for waste diversion
 Procurement of additional equipment needed
 Expansion of composting and other facilities needed for diversion
Waste Segregation and Reduction at Source
Stronger partnership / coordination with barangay governments is necessary to the

proper implementation of segregated collection, and establishment of Municipal Central
MRF and expansion of composting facilities. The following strategies are brought
forward for an improved SWM program in the barangay level, to wit;
 Strict implementation of “no segregation, no collection” scheme, include

intensive IEC on the importance of such scheme vis-à-vis public health hazards.
 Strong political will and commitment of local officials to fully implement related
laws, even up to penalizing offenders.
 Enhancement of collection system by installation of receptacles for each waste
type within all garbage trucks
 Provision of incentives to farmers, households, schools and other organized
groups in the barangay for using compost fertilizers
55
 Encouragement of farmers and vegetable growers on the importance of using
organic fertilizers
General Description of collection
Generally, waste collection on barangay LGUs is respectively done by their respective

garbage truck.While 2 barangays without garbage trucks are supported by the municipal
garbage trucks.For their collection waste at the Central Business District and at the
Public Market are being collected by the Municipal garbage truck.
Disposal Management
On plans for disposal – the Municipal Government shall continue until the end of the
planning period bringing its residual waste to the Metro Clark Sanitary Landfill located at
Brgy. Calangitan, Capas, Tarlac. We shall likewise sustain our partnership Holcim Cement
Corp. for the hauling of our plastic wastes which they convert into fuel for their
production/operations However, we shall explore options for contracting other similar
service providers that charge less and provide more practicable solution for our waste
disposal.
Other Key Elements of Strategy
The municipality’s strategies in implementing the mandates of RA 9003 are:
 Simple – segregation at source. Addressing wastes where and when it

occurs.
 Local - low tech and low cost. Segregated collection and segregated
destination.
 Empowerment of the barangays (Decentralized waste management
functions)
 Hands-on - Learn by doing teach by example
CHAPTER 7
SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
56
This part of the SWM Plan provides a detailed discussion of Solid Waste Management
programs to be implemented in the municipality to attain set objectives and targets.
Strict implementation of the Municipal Environmental Code (approved last December

2013) particularly, and requiring business establishments to secure ESWM permit (as
precondition to business permit) and in turn obliging them to have separate bins for
each type of wastes will be vital in attaining our goals on waste reduction and
segregation at source.

Capability and Economic Viability of the Municipality in Implementing the Program for
this Component
Proposed funds were allotted for the implementation of the different source reduction
programs planned by the municipality.
Technical Requirements for the Ordinances and Other Formal Actions to be Taken by
the Municipality
Municipal Ordinance No. 19, Series of 2013, or the Local Environment Code was
enacted. The Sangguniang Bayan will enact further legislative measures as may be
needed for the successful implementation of this plan.
Social impacts on stakeholders involved or affected.
The following are the foreseen impacts to the stakeholders:
 Healthier environment and healthier populace, hence less expenditures on

health
 More income source that may be derived from the sales of recyclables
 Lesser expenditures on food through backyard farming
 Lesser volume of waste disposed
 Lesser cost on per capita solid waste management collection and disposal
 Granting of incentives
 Aesthetic effect
Percentage Diversion Resulting from Source Reduction.
The targeted yearly waste diversion rates will be achieved with the help of strict
implementation of enacted Ordinances. Based on WACS, source reduction of paper (5%),
plastics (15%), styrofoams (1%), and laminates (7%) will achieve a 23%% diversion.
59
Maximization of the potential uses of biodegradable wastes and recyclable wastes will
be a greatly increase the diversion rates and will help in achieving the projected
diversion rates.
7.2 Collection
Currently, the LGU have 3 garbage trucks. Two (2) are assigned at the public market area
(which operate on a round-the-clock basis), while the other one (1) is assigned at the
Central Business District (CBD). Out of the 31 barangays, 28 have their own garbage
trucks.

Strategies for collection include the following;
 Strengthening of IEC program on the importance of segregation at source vis-à-vis

health impact of unsegregated wastes. Residents will put adhere to the policy when
they are aware of its benefits in maintaining good health within their households.
Effective campaign materials may also provide a detailed calculation of cost and
benefits (i.e. savings/expenses from/on medicines/hospitalization, amount of food
wasted / saved, etc.) when they practice waste segregation.
 Strict implementation of “no segregation, no collection” scheme may be arbitrary,

but it is one vital step towards creating healthier and more wholesome communities.
It may not be a popular to many households but municipal / barangay officials must
practice strong political will to achieve the end of this plan.
 Enhancement of collection system through procurement of garbage trucks and

continuous maintenance and upkeep of current fleet. Each garbage truck will be
installed with containers for different types of wastes.
7.2.2. Collection Equipment and Routes
Guagua will sustain its collection service to the present collection area. . The municipal
and barangay LGUs will jointly adopt a collection system that will optimize the use of
61
present collection and transport facility. Periodic review of routes and schedules as well
as assessment of collection performance will be conducted regularly in order to identify
areas for implement both in routing and scheduling.

7.2.5 Segregated Recyclables
For recyclables, these are being collected by waste segregators/sorters during their
collection schedule and are sold to local junkshops. Other recyclables are collected by
household and are sold to mobile buyers and are re-sold further to local junkshops.
Aside from garbage collection, the Municipality is also involved in the maintenance of
cleanliness of rivers and creeks under the Lingap/SagipIlog program. This is in support of
the Manila Bay Clean-up Drive of the National Government. Garbage from rivers and
creeks are collected on a daily/weekly basis and brought of Municipal Transfer station
for proper segregation/sorting.
7.2.5. A. Plan how to implement segregated collection of recyclables.
ACTIVITY EXPECTED OUTPUT

1. Meet with waste pickers at the 1. Awareness of waste pickers on recyclable
Central Segregation Building items/waste
2. Meeting with junk shops operators 2. a. Identification of recyclables that arebeing

bought.
b. Weighing of bought recyclables daily

and submit report to MENRO Office on a
weekly basis.
3. Meeting of barangay garbage truck 3. Awareness and full segregation of
Waste segregators recyclable waste
7.2.5.B.The system of collecting recyclables in every barangays is done during scheduled
pick up on households which is twice a week. Containers that are being used are sacks
and big pails.

Operation Linis Ilog
Composting
7.2.6Segregated Compostable
Compostable wastes collected from barangays, public market and central business
district are composted at the composting building at the Municipal Transfer Station. At
present, we encourage farmers to produce their own compost for their farming; while
65
households are also being taught to make backyard composting to be use in their
backyard garden.
The other remaining compostable wastes will be utilized in production of liquid fertilizer
and vermiculture composting. These wastes are shredded and processed at the
Municipal Transfer Station. The Municipality has a complete set of equipment for this
activity.
7.2.6.A.At the barangay level, we encourage backyard composting, but there are still
households that give their compostables to the garbage truck. Every barangay garbage
truck has 2 to 3 big pails for compostables during their collection. The collected
compostables are brought to MRF and are included in the composting of market waste.
Frequency of collection is also twice a week for barangays.
7.2.7 Residuals / Mixed Solid’s
The residual wastes collected at the Municipal Transfer Station are put on the container
bin of Metro Clark Solid Waste Management Corporation and pulled out once the
container is filled. A stand by container is always stationed at the Municipal Transfer
Station. Composting is already being done by the MENRO long before, and the whole
composting process is being done daily since the Municipality has a complete set of
equipment for composting. Collection of compostable is being done daily at the public
market and central business district; collection from the barangays are brought at the
Municipal Transfer Station on their appointed schedule.
7.2.7.A.Marketing of Compost
Presently, produced compost is being sold at P150/sack. But with the construction of a
new composting building and with strict implementation of waste segregation, there will
be an increase in production. Coordination with the Local Municipal Agricultural office is
needed as they will assist in the marketing of compost to our local farmers (as well as
farmers from nearby municipalities.)
Further coordination with the local nurseries along the Olongapo-Gapan Road within our
Municipality will also be our additional outlets for marketing our fertilizer.
7.2.8Livelihood Development
The Municipality will be conducting a Lakbay Aral Program to LGU’s/organization with

successful and replicable ventures related to SWM. This is aimed at affording our
66
beneficiaries with skills and viable livelihood. Target clients are housewives, OSYs,
persons with disability (PWDs) and other interested organizations/cooperative. This
could a good source of additional income and a vital strategy in attaining our targets.
7.3 Segregation, Recycling, and Composting
The Municipality of Guagua will carry on its IEC initiatives on RA 9003, monitoring of
barangay LGUs on their compliance with SWM laws and ordinances, and enhancing
partnership with all stakeholders, towards achieving our identified goals and objectives.
7.3.1 Segregation
Intensive IEC will be done to enhance awareness of the constituents on proper

segregation. The following strategies are aimed at increasing people’s commitment to
do waste segregation at source as mandated by RA 9003, to wit;
 Meeting with school officials and students to discuss importance of waste

segregation which will include activities to educate them on proper waste
segregation.
 The 4 Rural Health Units will take charge in conducting public awareness drive
(within their area of service) on the health impact of ‘un-segregated’ wastes.
 Religious leaders will be requested to set a portion of time during their mass /
religious gathering to educate their flock on proper waste segregation
 Bi-monthly or quarterly assessment by barangay/municipal SWMB on
accomplishment on compliance of their respective constituents (all sectors) on waste
segregation at source
 Weekly public address on waste segregation at source covering all barangays starting
the 2nd quarter until 4th quarter of 2015.
7.3.1.A.Reorientation of Barangay Solid Waste Management Committee per barangay

will be conducted regarding RA 9003 and Local Environment Code covering at least 2
barangays per week and target to finish within last quarter of 2015.
Monitoring and enforcement will be done by respective BSWMC and assessment will be
done during monthly meetings and discuss problems encountered, issues and possible
solutions in-order to improve household waste segregation.
In addition, a Task Force Kalikasan created by the Municipality will assist BSWMC in the
enforcement of household segregation.
7.3.1.B.A public addresssystem will be provided by MENRO in informing household on

proper segregation.
67
7.3.2 Recycling Plan
By the end of the planning period, all barangays shall have their respective garbage
truck. The Municipal Government shall continue to give out P70,000.00 / year as
financial assistance to barangays in carrying out their SWM programs and activities.
At present, garbage truck sorters separate recyclables which they then sell to junkshops
(thus giving them addition income. The sorters may sell their recyclables to any
junkshop of their choice (as there are many of them operating in Guagua), and certainly,
sorters will sell their recyclables to junk shop that offer higher price. The Municipality
wants to maintain this kind of practice since it will eliminate the need to put up a new
building for this purpose and the need for related manpower services needed to
manage recyclable wastes. Junkshops pay the corresponding fees and charges when
securing business permit. So, it is a win-win situation for the junk shop and the LGU.
7.3.2.A. The municipality does not intend to put barangay MRF or MRF for cluster
barangays. The municipal MRF can accommodate barangay garbage trucks on a
scheduled basis.
7.3.2.B. MENRO Staff assigned at the central MRF station check garbage brought by
garbage trucks, where segregated recyclables at the truck are placed in a certain area.
Final segregation of recyclables is done at the central MRF. MENRO Office is strict with
regards to segregation of recyclables and other kinds of waste of course. If the barangays
fails to segregate
7.3.2.C.The central MRF can accommodate scheduled barangay garbage trucks including
garbage trucks of the municipality. However, expansion of the MRF is needed to meet
the increasing volume of wastes; additional building as working area is needed.
Materials to be Recycled
The Municipality of Guagua will maintain its agreement with Holcim Cement
Corporation for wastes collected and categorized as ‘Holcimables’. The Municipality will
collect and bale said wastes and Holcim will do the hauling and re-processing as fuel
using their technology.
If there will be a technology that soon to be introduced, the LGU is open to try it.
68
Assistance of Municipality to Barangays
The Municipality will continue its financial assistance of P 70, 000/year to all the 31
barangays which will be utilized in their solid waste management programs/activities.
Aside from the technical assistance accorded to them by the MENRO office, the
municipality shall further give P1/kilogram to barangay sorters/segregators for
‘Holcimable’ wastes that they collect in their respective barangay.
Implementation Schedule
The LGU will just continue its present practice on managing recyclable wastes. An
ordinance will be enacted which shall require all non-household waste generators to
separate their recyclables for easy collection.
Acceptable Technologies and Lay out of Facilities
The LGU is open to accept any technologies that may be vital in helping us achieve our
targets in reducing and diverting wastes. At present, there is an ongoing construction of
a 6metersx20meters composting building with 5 bins and a structure for vermin-
composting and liquid fertilizer production. The latter technology is provided for free by
a Japanese donor.
7.3.3 Composting/ Management of Biodegradable Waste
Overall strategy for managing biodegradable waste
- Require all households and non-households to have their respective composting

pits or practice composting in their backyards.
- Encourage different sectors, schools to practice and teach composting and its
good effect in the environment.
- Strengthen/request the assistance of the Barangay solid waste management
committee in monitoring and assessment.
- Support the organic farming program of the LGU
At present, the LGU thru MENRO is already producing compost in its old facility /
building. Wastes being composted are generally those collected from the public market
and barangays.
69
Incidentally, some schools, farmers and households already practice composting in their
respective level.
7.3.3.A-B.Approximately 150-200 kilos of compostable/biodegradable waste is being

brought by barangays at the Central MRF. Expansion of the existing composting building
is also needed to accommodate the possible increase in volume of biodegradables.
7.3.3.C-F.The designated MENRO has been in the compost making since 1989, that his
experience is enough to the composting process. Windrow type of composting is the
LGU process, wherein compostable market waste and barangay biodegradables are
shredded and mixed it with coco dust, animal manure plus enzyme to speed up
decomposition. Two (2) MENRO Staff were trained on this project. This is being done
daily since our public market is operating 24/7. The municipality provides the barangays
LGU and schools compost for their gulayan program. Composting had been started 5
years ago and still being continued until today.
Materials to be composted
Only biodegradable wastes coming from the public market and some barangays will be
shredded processed into compost.
Implementation Schedule
The LGU will base its collection on the schedule mentioned in the previous chapter. The
public market and CBD collection will be on a daily basis while barangays will strictly
follow the scheduled date given.
Current Composting Practices
The following are our composting practices:
a) Segregation/ collection of biodegradable wastes collected from public market,

central business district and barangays
b) Shredding of compostable wastes
c) Composting/putting of enzyme at the composting bin
d) Aging from 15 – 30 days
e) Air drying of ripe compost
f) Shredding / Pulverizing, Bagging
7.3.4 Marketing and Market Development
70
Recovered recyclables by waste sorters are being sold directly to junk shops within the
LGU. And as previously discussed, we will maintain this kind of arrangement since it is
deemed to be the most viable scheme, being win-win to all parties.
What the Municipality can do about this is to monitor the buying price of all types of
recyclables, as it varies from time to time.
For composting, we had been marketing our product from the previous year until the
present with a market price of P150/bag. Since we have a new composting building,
production will increase. One viable marketing strategy to sell our compost is creation
of linkage with the different farmers’ organization / cooperatives through coordination
with the Municipal Agricultural Office. Private plant nurseries situated along the
Olongapo-Gapan road are likewise feasible conduit for marketing our compost.

Evaluation of feasibility of procurement preference for compost, recyclable and

recycled materials
Guagua is considered as the business center of the 2 nd district of Pampanga, but still
many of its barangay are still categorized as agri barangays. Farmers still plant rice,
vegetables and sampaguita plantations are still abundant in our area.
71
Production of organic fertilizer is not a problem as to its marketing, since there are many
farmers now from our Municipality and even adjacent towns using compost. However,
current volume of compost production is not enough to meet demand.
In terms of recycling, charcoal making and pillow making are the one being studied by
the MENRO office and MSWD as potential possible recycling and livelihood project.
Pillow making of Teresa, Rizal will be replicated since the LGU has a plastic shredder and
women association of MSWD are the target clients in producing pillows. Charcoal will be
produced by MENRO and marketing will be taken care of by association of Person with
disabilities (PWD) which is also under the supervision of our MSWD.
7.4 Transfer
The LGU has now its new MRF building which serves as the central transfer station of all
kinds of wastes.
7.5 Alternative Technologies for Residual Wastes
The Municipality has a plastic shredder that can shred practically all kinds of plastic. The
shredded plastic are used as stuffing/filling in making pillows by a women’s organization
under the auspices of our MSWD.
There is also a briquettor used in fabricating charcoal. There are two ways in making
charcoal, one using coconut / buko husks that are dried for one month, then placed in a
drum carbonizer, and burned for 3 – 4 hours. The second method makes use of
discarded/refined charcoal being thrown by charcoal sellers in the market which are
shredded, then mixed with “gaw-gaw” (starch) then molded into charcoal through the
briquettor, and then dried within 3 – 4 days. The charcoal can be an alternative for
firewood and are used by households.
7.6 Disposal
The municipality has an existing contract with Clark Solid Waste Management
Corporation for our residual wastes. For our ‘Holcimable’ wastes, Holcim Cement
Corporation shall remain our partner in hauling said wastes.

7.7.1 Health Care Waste
Health care wastes are not collected by the Municipality. It is being hauled and treated
by private companies before it is transferred to sanitary landfill.
73
7.7.1.A. It is estimated that one percent (1%) increase of special waste will be generated
in the future.
7.7.1.B.A two percent (2%) increase in health care waste be generated in the future due
to continuing increase in population.
7.8 Information, Education and Communication
7.8.1 Introduction
IEC is one of the components of SWM program which has to be given emphasis. It is in
this aspect, how the information, relevance and participation of all stakeholder be
achieved.
It is through the program IEC. How the detailed information of R.A 9003 can be ingrate
to all target clients. We can use all kinds of communication skills, paraphernalia, and
mediums in communicating.
Attending meetings of stakeholders, seminar of barangay officials, meeting with NGO’s

AND PO’s, school officials, students, religious groups is another way of communicating
and ultimately getting their participation if they are well informed in the objectives of
SWM.
We can even inform our clients through the word of mouth, informal talks to individual
or informal groups, through this we can input the program’s goal and at the same time
get thus comments and reactions.
Print media, radio and stations will also be utilized just for the sake of informing the
public on R.A 9003.
It is the objective of a best IEC program to reach all stakeholders for them to support and
participate in the undertaking particularly in the segregation, waste reduction, recycling,
composting and IEC soldiers too.
Getting stakeholder’s awareness and participation is one of the key for the success of
SWMP.
The problems/issues that will be addressed are as follows:

1. People’s awareness on segregation and compliance.
2. Roles and participation of government and private institution.
3. Roles of elected leaders relative to RA 9003 particularly in households
segregation.
74
4. People’s awareness on existing laws and compliance.
5. Economic and health effect of proper management of waste.
7.8.2 Core Messages
The core messages for the entire LGU, as this plan is concern is to reduce waste, recycle,
reuse, segregation at source, segregated collection by garbage trucks, processing of
wastes, proper transfer, transport and disposal.
These activities could be improved the next succeeding by years through proper review
and evaluation of the present performance participation of the entire stakeholders,
market vendors, transport groups, municipal and barangay solid waste management
board/committees, RHU’s/Barangay Health Workers.
And here are the contributions / core messages relative to the SWMP

in a meeting, explain to them the present problem in wastes, what is to be done on it,
what could be their roles and functions to the solutions if to be a partner on the issue.
An orientation on RA 9003 and other local environmental laws will be conducted to
widen their knowledge on environmental issues and legal basis. Regular meeting
(quarterly) will be conducted to discuss present issues and possibly look appropriate
solutions.
Table 7.7. Core Messages and Target Audience
Linkage to other partners such as but not limited to media groups, socio-civic
organizations, POs and NGOs shall be established. To ensure the support of these
groups in the IEC campaign, it shall be formalized through a Memorandum of Agreement
(MOA) defining the roles of each agency/organizations involved. Regular feed backing
and assessment will be conducted with the partners and the specific response
action/required for each stakeholder.

CHAPTER 8
IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY
8.1 FRAMEWORK
The solid waste management framework will address issues and challenges in the
implementation of RA 9003. The thrust of the plan is waste reduction and the increase
in diversion level through re-use, recycling, composting and use of alternative
technology.

The foregoing Figure 11.1 presents the actual implementation of Solid Waste
Management Program in the Municipality of Guagua. It starts at the barangay level
where various types of wastes are generated by both households and non households.
Initial segregation starts at this level; garbage trucks’ wastes’ sorters segregate wastes as
soon as loaded to the truck on the day of their scheduled collection.
Upon delivery to the central MRF, final segregation of such wastes is done. Upon
completion of segregation, ‘biodegradable’ materials will be composted, while
85
‘recyclables’ will be taken by the sorters for sale to junkshops. ; ‘Holcim-able wastes’ will
be baled and then hauled by Holcim Cement Corp.
‘Residual’ wastes will be loaded to the stand-by vin of Metro Clark Solid Waste
Management Corp. and then transported for disposal to their sanitary landfill in Capas,
Tarlac.
‘Special Wastes are put inside a designated toxic vault.

Based on the result of WACS, Table 8.1 shows the target percentage of wastes for
diversion including those residuals with potential for diversion. At the start of the
planning period (2015), the diversion rate is 75%.
By year 2024, the municipality is expected to have a maximum potential for diversion of
86%. This can be achieved by implementing various waste diversion schemes as
mentioned in Chapter 7.
8.3. MONITORING PROGRAM
Benefits of using information from monitoring and evaluation are multiple. Monitoring
will determine accountability, improvements in performance, decision-making and
learning. It can also be a means for effective knowledge and information sharing, and
practical guidance to support programs and dissemination of information. Success of
the program depends on how the monitoring activities shall be done.
In the case of Guagua, the TWG headed by the MENRO shall initially take charge in the
monitoring and evaluation of SWM operation within the municipality. Regular reporting
will be made by the group for submission to the MSWMB on a quarterly basis for
assessment / evaluation on how our programs fare towards realization of our vision.
The Board shall then submit its evaluation report to the Municipal Development Council
(made up of various sectors of the LGU) and the Sangguniang Bayan, and to all
stakeholders (through posting in designated bulletin boards), for effective feedback
mechanism.
On a yearly basis, a Report will be prepared which highlights accomplishments on the

following:
 Municipal MRF Operation: weight of volume of waste received; weight or

volume of recyclables sold; weight or volume of biodegradable wastes processed
into compost/fertilizers (including total volume/no. of bags of compost fertilizer
produced and sold); income generated from sale of recyclables and compost;
 Enforcement: types of violations committed and recorded; number of violators

apprehended or did community works, amount of fines and penalties collected;

 Collection and Transport: estimated volume of waste collected on all
establishments (residential, commercial, institutional etc.) by type of garbage;
weight or volume of wastes baled and hauled by Holcim Cement Corp.; weight or
volume of residual wastes hauled to MCSWMC.
The MENRO shall provide evaluation of records to indicate compliance with segregation
of requirements; payments of fees/fines and SWM ordinances.

Traffic Citation Ticket Environmental Citation Ticket Proof of Payment
The use of incentives plays an important role in achieving excellent performance

towards realizing goals and vision. The municipal government shall implement following
incentive programs, to wit:
 Schools will be encouraged to sustain compost production and organic vegetable

farming within their campuses. The LGU will give assistance in marketing their
produce and other forms of incentives (e.g. seedlings, farming materials, etc.).
Schools that have successful implementation of this program will be given
awards / recognition.
94
 The Search for Cleanest and Greenest Barangay will be reintroduced, where best
practices will be given recognition and earn financial incentives for winning
barangays. The most active Barangay SWM Board will also be awarded for
sustaining SWM initiatives particularly on segregation-at-source. Moreover,
community-based organic farming will be introduced to barangays, being a viable
livelihood for residents, as more consumers demand for organically grown
vegetables.
 25% of fines collected from violators will be given as incentive to Kalikasan

Enforcers

CHAPTER 10
SOCIAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL ASPECTS
101
10.1 SOCIAL ASPECTS
10.1.1 Significant Social Impacts train community based SWM
It is expected that there will be a mixed reactions on R.A 9003, more particularly on
waste segregation, since it is a new law, and since the time of immemorial, waste or
garbage is just thrown anywhere.
Negatively speaking, people in the household level will have a resistance in the
segregation of their waste. People are reluctant to pay the minimum 30 pesos/month
garbage fee impose of barangay LGU.
Positively speaking, there is now awareness among people on the problem on waste,
it’s negative or positive effect to environment and health in particular. Many people,
NGO’s, PO’s, and the Academe joined the LGU in its environmental program/project.
10.1.2 Social Acceptability of Proposed Solid Waste System (Including Collection

System, Processing and Disposal)
The social acceptability of any project is one of the factors that have to be
considered, the municipality has a program of buyout scheme for all segregated
holcimable waste. For segregated holcimable waste, hauled by the municipal garbage
truck, it pays 2 pesos/kilo, while those hauled by the barangay truck, it pays 1
peso/kilo and the barangay LGU, support the other 1 peso/kilo counterpart. The
number of segregators increases due to this program, not like before, they just rely
on saleable wastes as their source of income. The scheme started with an initial of
forty thousand (P40,000) as initial fund allocated by the municipality. Now this
increases to one hundred twenty thousand (P120,000) for one (1) month segregation
activity. The municipality is also providing medical and financial assistance to these
people.
102
103
104
105
10.1.3 Requirements of Stakeholder
The requirements of stakeholders is their total commitment to their duties and

responsibilities as agreed upon, more particularly the TWG of ESWM who will be
closely monitoring and evaluating solid waste management activities, MSWMB who
is the policy making are further enhance the SWM activities, theSangguniang Bayan
to enact laws/ordinances needed to the successful implementation of solid waste
program.
10.2 ENVIRONMENTAL ASPECT
On the environmental aspect, the LGU should accomplish the following as their
aspects:
 Upgrade the composting program and it should be in conformity to the standards

of the Department of Agriculture’s fertilizer and Pesticide Authority.
 The LGU, the MENRO in particular, at the primary office of SWMP, shall ensure
that segregation and recovery of waste are done prior to disposal of residual
waste to the landfill.
 As part of the MENRO office, there should be a unit with competent staff
required of Information, Education and communication who will handle all
seminars, meetings, and training to all stakeholders Republic Act 9003, local laws
and programs related to Solid Wastes Management.
 The LGU shall formally create the MENRO office with complete qualified staff per
unit so as to fully implement all programs/project related to SWMP.
 The LGU should look for a technology that is environmentally acceptable that
would reduce waste disposal and possibly becomes a livelihood program in the
community.

11.1. Investment Costs
The planned investment of the LGU for the duration of the 10-year planning period
will address the engineering component of its SWM programs. It encompasses
procurement of collection equipment, establishment of transfer station and
installation of storage and composting facilities.
Investment costs also covers procurement of equipments (i.e. garbage trucks,

backhoe, and utility vehicles) and repair of existing machineries.
The estimated cost of the amortized will be based on the estimated life of equipment
and machineries which is ten (10) years.
11.2. Annual Cost
Annual costs comprise payment of salaries, maintenance and other operating

expenses, and closing and rehabilitating of dumpsite up to 2017.
110
11.3. Funding Options
Presently, funds utilized for the SWM operation of the LGU are culled from the 20%
Development Fund and 5% Gender and Development Fund. As supplement, fund
support from the Provincial and National government are essential in the successful
implementation of our SWM program. Moreover, private organizations donate
equipment and machineries.
The following initiatives will be up for review and implementation upon approval, to
augment funding for the sustainable implementation of SWM programs, to wit;
 Revised provision of Revenue Code on ‘Garbage fee.’ The fee charged to business
establishment must be increased and to better require business to comply with
provision of RA 9003, said fee can be changed into ‘SWM Fee’
 Stricter imposition of fees and penalties to violators
 Offer project proposal to international donor agencies espousing environmental
protection for possible funding support
 Make ‘compost fertilizer’ production more competitive to increase revenue from
sales and in turn augment funding for SWM programs
At first year (2015) of the implementation of this plan, only 2.7% of the IRA was
allocated with an equivalent cost of P4,430,000.00 . The highest proportion of SWM
Cost to IRA is 5.8% on year 2016, due to the purchase of heavy equipment, the
creation of the MENRO Office with the necessary personnel / staff to be hired and
closing and rehabilitation of dumpsite.

11.3.1. Revenue Generation
Main Source of Revenues
The SWM program expects to generate revenues from the following sources:
A. Garbage Fee / ESWM Fees

Per records of the Municipal Treasurer’s Office, garbage fees collected from business
establishments for the year 2014 amounted to P 1,227,000.00. This amount is
equivalent to about 50% of total amount allocated for SWM programs for the same
year. The fee charge to business permit applicants amounts to P 400.00 - 600.00
annually. On the other hand, in the barangay level, household pays an average of P
30.00 per month for garbage collection, which is then allocated for the barangays’
respective SWM programs.
Increasing population brings about increase in waste generators. And to sustain

increasing expenses on SWM program, an equivalent increase in Garbage fee /
charges will be recommended for revision under the Local Revenue Code. The same
fee may be modified as ‘ESWM’ permit/fee, which will provide mechanism to
monitor and evaluate the compliance of business establishments with provision of
laws on SWM. It will also be recommended that the ‘fee/charge’ be amended every
three (3) years.
Moreover, higher fee will be charge to establishments that generate bigger waste
volume, such as supermarkets, restaurants, buko vendors, junkshops, etc...
B. Sale of Compost Fertilizer and Alternative Technology Product
Revenue from sales of compost fertilizer and products produced from recyclable
wastes (using alternative technology) shall be important source of revenue.
C. Fines and Penalties
While we would want as much as possible that all individuals and establishments
shall strictly follow SWM laws, payment from fines and penalties for late or non-
payment of fees and for violation of laws/ordinances is also considered as source of
revenue.

11.3.2. Other Alternative Financial Arrangements
The implementation of SWM programs entails huge financial requirements. Due to funding limitations, the municipal
government may not be able to allocate enough funding to put through all identified projects and activities.
The municipality’s General Fund and 20% Development Fund may be insufficient to support all SWM programs, however,
sourcing external sources and subsidizing its cost is a valuable alternative. The involvement / participation of private sector
114
(i.e. local and foreign international organizations espousing environmental protection) can be solicited through a MOA. Issues
concerning environmental preservation and conservation have gained worldwide popularity. Numerous government and non-
government organizations, both local and international, concern the environment come into view. Many of them are
accepting technical and financial proposals and some of them even shell out grants for this purpose. The plan itself may be
presented to these organizations both for funding and other support.
The Municipal Government may likewise acquire loans from Government and Non-Government Financing Institutions for
funding not only of significant development projects but also for environmental infrastructures as well.
The municipal government can also foster sisterhood with other LGUs in the country and in other nations, thereby gaining
mutual concern on common issues. This opportunity may be expected for other incidental support.
11.3.3. Effective Management of Investments
To assure the sustainable and effective management of SWM resources, the LGU may designate a ‘SWMP Trust Fund’
containing proceeds from fines, penalties, loans, donations, endowments, grants, etc. . The fund raises the LGU’s
responsibility for effective and economical utilization of the financial resources. The ESWM Board will administer this Fund in
a transparent manner and in accordance with proper accounting, budgeting and Commission on Audit (COA) rules and
regulations.

11.4.4
There are several ways to optimize the costs in the implementation of the ten- year SWM Plan:
 The cost estimate is mainly development cost for municipal LGU only; barangay SWM Program is not included.
 Organization and Management cost represents the minimum manpower requirement. Hiring of MENRO Chief of Office
and Support Staff is again recommended at least on the 2nd year of the program implementation.
 SWM personnel hired can do multi-tasking and may be assigned to perform other others related to SWM.

CHAPTER 12
PLAN IMPLEMENTATION
This portion of the plan describes and highlights the processes and schedules of Solid Waste Management Plan
implementation.
12.1.Phases and Responsibilities
This Solid Waste Management Plan of Guagua will cover the next ten (10) years from 2015 to 2024. The Plan is formulated as
a guide for local leaders in implementing the various projects and activities of Solid Waste Management Program.
Components include Engineering, Education, Enforcement, Environmental Organizations and Equity shall be given high regard
to be sustained throughout the planning period.
The Engineering Component enjoys the topmost priority as there shall be a need for structures and equipment for the next
ten (10) years. Municipal Environment and Natural Resources Office (MENRO) shall be the frontline in the implementation
together with the Solid Waste Management Board, the Barangay and other Government and Private agencies concerned.
12.2. Milestones
While RA 9003 became into law in 2001, it was only in 2013 that Municipal Government effected the creation of the MENRO,
albeit in interim capacity. Mr. Carlito Nicdao was designated MENRO chief (and upon assumption) even volunteered to be
assigned at the ‘dumpsite’ to be able to get a better grasp of pressing concerns and therefore provide timely and appropriate
solutions.
Constant exchanges of ideas with officials from other LGUs afforded the MENRO with a host of alternatives, technology and
opportunities to realize its goals in addressing waste problems.
119
In March 2013, Holcim Cement Corp. started its initial pull-out of plastic wastes (which we refer to as Holcim-able wastes)
which they use as fuel in their production process.
The current administration in keen on its commitment to address problems on wastes by putting forward solutions it deems
best. However, despite the efforts of the local Government Units (LGU) to implement proper solid waste management, full
compliance and cooperation of its residents is less remarkable. Waste segregation at source remains a contentious issue.
With this Plan, which articulates the vision of the Municipality of helping its people realize a higher quality of life by effecting
a balanced and healthy environment that is suitable for communal and individual survival, local officials and residents will
positively change their perspective on solid waste management
