CITY OF SAN FERNANDO — Kapampangan cities have taken active participation in the campaign to bring back the waters of Manila Bay to class βSBβ (Swim and Bath Category).
In July, kick-off ceremonies for the conduct of the Regular Clean-Up Day were held in Barangay Lourdes in San Fernando and in neighboring provinces.
To institutionalize the conduct of the clean-up, The Regional Development Council (RDC), in its Full Council Meeting in Bulacan last July 13, adopted the Regular Barangay Clean-up Day through a resolution.
Also, a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) was signed by the League of Cities of the Philippines President and San Fernando Mayor Oscar Rodriguez and Department of Interior and Local Government (DILG) Regional Director Florida Dijan designating every first Saturday of the month as barangay clean-up day.
The clean-up was also made binding with the League of Provinces represented by Tarlac, Bulacan, Pampanga, Tarlac and Nueva Ecija by a MOA, which they adopted.
The widest possible participation by the citizenry is necessary for the success of the project. Students who are undergoing the National Training Service Program (NSTP) program of colleges and universities were tapped to join the clean-up.
Likewise, the 703rd Army Brigade was assigned a portion of the San Fernando River to clear off from garbage and debris.
Angeles City and the City of San Fernando signed a MOA stipulating that each of them will install trash traps to prevent the descent of garbage from Angeles City to San Fernando, Pampanga.
Dijan said the project is also mandated to determine if all licensed septic and sludge companies have the proper facilities for the treatment and disposal of sewage. The validation of five sanitary landfills was completed in September. This was conducted by the Environmental Management Bureau and the Department of Health (DOH).
They are the Sta. Rosa Landfill in Sta. Rosa, Nueva Ecija; Wacuman landfill in Norzagaray, Bulacan; VGP Bulacan-engineered Sanitary Landfill in San Jose del Monte, Bulacan; Maticitic Ecological Solid Waste Management Facility in Norzagaray, Bulacan; and the Metro Clark Waste Management Corporation in Capas, Tarlac.
This November, the five provinces and Angeles City conducted their Workshop for the Formulation of the Five-year Action Plan to be implemented to accomplish the goals of the project.
