The Municipal Environment and Natural Resources Office (MENRO) of this capital town of Antique has urged residents, institutions, and establishment owners to practice waste segregation at source as their sanitary landfill in Barangay Pantao is almost full.

San Jose de Buenavista MENRO chief Madelyn Pagunsan said in an interview Friday that their municipality has a high volume of waste generation as it is the center of trade and commerce in the province.

“We expect that we are now generating more than 14 tons of waste daily because of the many institutions and establishments that have opened up in our town,” Pagunsan said.

The 14 tons of waste a day was still in 2017.

“We urge the public to have their biodegradable waste used as composting material and recyclable waste sold at the junkshop so that they could only dispose of residuals at their barangay material recovery facilities (MRFs),” he said.

San Jose de Buenavista is the only municipality in Antique with a sanitary landfill.

“The local government unit (LGU) of San Jose de Buenavista is, in fact, now looking into expanding the sanitary landfill because of the problem of the volume of waste,” Pagunsan said.

While the LGU has yet to acquire the neighboring property for the sanitary landfill expansion, it can only call for waste segregation at the source. (PNA)
