II. PROJECT DESCRIPTION

A. Brief Summary of the Project

The realization of ensuring the protection of public health and promoting the quality of the environment
through proper management and reduction of solid waste generation might be possible through the adoption
of the Mobile Material Recovery Station (MMRS) System. The system is intended to be used within the
Province of Oriental Mindoro to collect one (1) ton of municipal solid waste per day.

Likewise, MMRS is designed for Municipal Waste management to deliver high organic waste diversion,
recycling/ recovery and volume reduction rates. It is an effective tool in decentralizing the solid waste
problems of LGUs by processing the barangays’ waste on-site. MMRS System is composed of rapid
composting machine, waste crusher, waste pulverizer and power generator.

B. Problem Statement

Relatively, with today’s industrialization and lifestyle of Filipinos along with its increasing population, it is
evident that waste generation is continuously increasing not only in volume but also in variety. In the report
released by the World Bank (WB), Philippines Environment Monitor 2011, a Filipino generates between 0.3
and 0.7 kilograms of garbage daily depending upon income levels. Furthermore, employing the WB report
Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) generation per capita at 0.9 kg per day1 and the 844,059 population of the
province2, roughly an average of 759,600 kg of garbage daily has been generated. Consequently, with a
projected population increase of 968,045 by year 2025with growth rate of 1.38%, the solid waste generated
will be 871,240.5 kg daily.

The above situation clearly gives notice that there is an utmost need to address the issue on the continuous
increase of waste generated in the province of Oriental Mindoro. Meanwhile, even with the plans and
programs provided by the LGUs in the implementation of proper waste management, problems and issues
were still encountered including the low collection coverage, unavailability of transport services, and a lack

 of suitable treatment and disposal facilities. It is expected that this waste generation will continue to
increase. As a result, environmental problems arise, leading to water, land and air pollution and putting
people’s health and the environment at risk.

C. Project Goal and Objectives

In support to the Environment Management Program of the Province of Oriental Mindoro and pursuant to
RA 9003: Ecological Solid Waste Management Act of 2000, the adoption of MMRS will aid in achieving the
goal of the province in maintaining the cleanliness of the environment and keeping the ecological balance
through the reduction of waste generation by approximately 5 percent per year, hence, providing an avenue
to promote protected environment and public health within the province.

IV. PROJECT MANAGEMENT / MONITORING AND EVALUATION

Full process monitoring of the project will be a joint undertaking of the Provincial Government of Oriental Mindoro
(PGOrM) thru the Environment and Natural Resources Office (ENRO) and its component City/Municipality
Environment and Natural Resources Offices (C/MENROs). They will jointly perform planning, organizing,
staffing, directing, monitoring, evaluating and financial controlling to ensure that the project runs accordingly.
Meanwhile, to execute the actual operation of the system two (2) operators will be coming from ENRO
specifically the Environmental Management Services (EMS) Division and one (1) driver will be requested from
the Governor’s Office (GO).

V. PROJECT SUSTAINABILITY

To ensure the project sustainability, monitoring and evaluation will ascertain the project’s success in achieving its
goals and objectives.
 Well-trained personnel will be responsible for the operation of the system and a formal maintenance will stay on
top of the routine care of the equipment according to schedule.

C/MENROs will be in charged in the monitoring of the project within their respective City/Municipalities. In every
end of the month, report of the status of operation is to be submitted to the PG-ENRO. The latter will provide an
evaluation plan to assess the impact of the project.

Each city/municipality will be obliged to pay fees for the use of the system. They are required to pay on the PTO
(Provincial Treasurer’s Office) before they will be scheduled for the operation.

Meanwhile, allotment for maintenance will be charged to ENRO Supplemental Budget 2019.

VI. RISK MANAGEMENT

Failure of the project may occur as the system miscarry its operation due to excessive wear and tear. The
productivity losses and operational delays due to equipment failures may cause schedule of the operation to be
unproductive, thus reducing the efficiency of the system.

Hence, to keep the equipment in optimal operational condition and minimize the risk of system failure, a regular
inspection will be required to ensure that the system will never fail. An easy-to-use, equipment-specific
inspection checklist will be used to ensure that the pre-use inspections are done properly and documented.
However, when the system does fail, or when an inspection identifies a problem, a reactive maintenance will be
done.

Furthermore, process will be at risk once the hired personnel who attended the training for the actual operation
were replaced. Therefore, security of the hired personnel should be taken into consideration.
