Guv dared: Close all open dumpsites
CITY OF SAN FERNANDO — An environmentalist has challenged Governor Lilia Pineda to invoke her political will and order the closure of all illegal open and controlled dumpsites in Pampanga.
Sonny Dobles, chair of the committee on environment of the Advocacy for the Development of Central Luzon (ADCL), said the governor has no option but to file administrative and criminal charges against all mayors and barangay officials for blatant violation of the Ecological Solid Waste Management Act (Republic Act 9003).
“If the governor is not playing politics, we dare her administration to use strong resolve and political will to save the people from the degrading environment due to indiscriminate dumping of waste, and bring to jail those who deliberately violate the laws,” Dobles said.
He said the protection and preservation of the environment is imperative, and the governor should be reminded that this is beyond patronage politics and friendship among local officials.
Earlier, the governor initiated several consultations and meetings regarding the environment among the 5,370 barangay officials and all municipal mayors and other stakeholders.
The governor has expressed “disappointment” over the non-compliance of local officials, particularly the barangays, with her call to put up material recovery facilities (MRFs) in their respective villages and with her constant appeal to practice waste segregation in every household.
It can also be noted that aside from the illegal dumpsites, the tributaries, canals and the Pampanga River “unwittingly” remain as the biggest dumpsites in the province.
As the garbage problem in the province has reached an alarming proportion, Dobles said command responsibility and prudence dictate that the provincial chief executive should act now and show a strong resolve before the waste dilemma turns into a tragedy. (Charlene Cayabyab)
