The purpose is to attain the thrust stated to establish, implement a cost effective
interrelated and sustainable Solid Waste Management System that will focus in
addressing the Solid Waste Management Programs in Iligan City considering the
following components are Source Reduction, Segregation Plan of Sector Involve,
Recycling, Collection/Transfer Plan, Composting plan, Diversion of Waste, New Facility
of Central MRCF System Project, Disposal system, Special & Hazardous waste Facility,
IEC Plans & activities, and Livelihood Development and Marketing.

7.1 SOURCE REDUCTION


Based on section 1 DAO-IRR of R.A 9003, Volume Reduction at source is the
main objective of the Integrated Ecological solid waste management system. That all
constituents shall promote and responsible for sorting and segregation of biodegradable
and non-biodegradable recyclable waste at the household in barangay level and all other
sources such as markets, commercial, institution, schools, hospitals and industry.
The Plan is to reduce the amount of waste disposed by diverting at least 25% of
all Solid Waste from the Material Recovery and Composting Facility through Re- Use,
Recycling and Composting activities and possible resource recovery activities of
Barangay MRF, as provided in Section17, 20 of R.A 9003. See Table 3.6-Projected MSW
Generation of Estimated Population of 29 Barangay In Iligan City for ICSWM Plan.
The City of Iligan is undertaking a Waste Minimization and Recovery project to
reduce waste at source has been identified and acknowledged through the efforts of JGC
Guevarra Foundation Inc. under the supervision of the Iligan City Solid Waste
Management Board with the IEC advocacy. The implementation of the scheme activity

10-Years Solid Waste Management Plan

66

for the household segregation recycling and composting has been mobilized with the
participation of Barangay Buru-un & Maria Cristina. Organization and participation
involve Barangay community activities on the waste management system thru IEC prior
to construction of Central MRCF project. Strengthening the market of the recyclable /
recoverable materials shall be made possible to minimized waste stream and increase
economic practically in implemented this plan. Price list of Recyclable materials and
market Junk store are shown in Table 7.2.

Plans for Waste Reduction at source:


1. Institutionalization of SWM to all sectors at the barangay level constituents
involves in proper handling and collection system of garbage generated at
source by having alternative measure how to keep and process own waste.
2. Educate thru information how to handle organic compost material mostly
generated at the household like kitchen waste, papers and cartoons for
alternative decomposition procedure and re-using.
3. Institute a policy and ordinance to the barangay solid waste management
initiating BMRF and committee on collection methods to support the
mandatory activity of recycling, composting and re-using in promotion to
practice clean production system at source.
4. Strengthening market availability for recovered recyclable materials like
bottles, broken plastic, scrap steel at source.
5. Assist the barangay committee thru IEC to practice and encourage backyards
composting and 3 Rs (Reduce, re-used, Recycle).
6. Through the efforts of education and information campaign with the
coordination of barangay committee in all sectors to minimize used of plastic
and /or recycle and re-used otherwise used biodegradable wrappers such as
basket bag.
7. Institute a policy of an accord ordinance at barangay level that Polluters Must
Pay.
8. Institute a policy to assist each barangay in planning solid waste management.

7.2 COLLECTION PLAN


Overview: The setting of new Material Recovery & Composting Facility site is
located 7.8 km away from the national high way at Bangko, Brgy. Bonbonon, where as
the collection of Solid Waste shall be done in a way that prevents spillage and appropriate
compartments to ensure safe and efficient collection and transit, provided in section 1
rule X of DAO-IRR no 2001-34 series of 2001 of R.A. 9003.
*In consideration to ensure safe and efficient collection, transfer and handling of
solid waste, the ICSWMB TWC proposed plans and these are the following;
a. To have three (3) additional equipments vehicles design to hauled specific
type of waste either segregated and/ or mixed wasted, special/ hazardous
waste, maintained operational condition, convenient capacity and separated
collection schedules as specified above.
b. To have practical collection in house to house and in two (2) markets of
mixed waste, segregated Biodegradable or recyclable waste and residuals.
c. To acquired Equipment vehicle type of Compress truck, with 8 to 12 cu. m.
Capacity of model type favored.
d. To trained and equipped with personal protective device for the personnel
collectors.
e. To set an alternative collection of mixed waste
f.

Institutes every Barangay or cluster of Barangay responsibility for the


collection, segregation, recycling of biodegradable/recyclable, compostable
and re-usable waste for the establishment of BMRF.

g. The project Plan is to install Pilot MRF at Brgy. Del Carmen is ongoing and
green hills MRF at Luinab facilitated by the Barangay committees.
h. To collect Non Organic Residual waste from the Barangay MRF

10-Years Solid Waste Management Plan

METHODS OF COLLECTION
* Collection of Solid Waste
The City will continue to collect the MSW using the present fleet of garbage
trucks. This is discussed in detail below.
There will be a need for a major waste segregation campaign among the
communities who are the waste generators. This IEC will be a joint effort between the
ICSWMB, the Facility Managers, PSD, other stakeholders and NGOs.
Collection Route and Schedule: Future garbage collection program will involve
daily collection of biodegradable waste and a two times a week collection of nonbiodegradable waste, using color coded trucks.
Residuals: Very minimal residuals (mostly toxic or polluting materials) will be
segregated and this will primarily baled and compacted, then stored neatly, awaiting
future utilization or disposition. (As baled materials on storage, there will be no need to
introduce 6-cm- soil cover as required in a sanitary landfill. The soil cover requirement is
a very expensive and time-consuming daily work activity.) This CMRCF shall
demonstrate the practical approach and effectiveness of baled and compacted residuals
considered as resources placed on storage for future utilization. This is part of a targeted
Zero Waste Management program, the first part of which is the conversion of concrete
bricks out of shredded residual waste.
Storage And Set Out Plan: The collection set out of the MSW will be continue
on garbage fleet of trucks by the City as referred to the existing public services given to
any places of the barangay and time/day scheduled. The waste generator shall provide
their practical storage container that should be easily identifying prior its collection route.
As soon as the Barangays have their own establish Material Recovery Facility for storage
and set out, collection may be done in the BMRF.

COLLECTION TRUCK REQUIREMENTS


A. Status of the Existing City Garbage Trucks*
The city has eleven (11) garbage trucks (press packs and open dump type) with
one (1) 5 CM capacity compactor already non-operational. Eight (8) of these were
acquired way back 1993, while three (3) was obtained in 1998.
The ten (10) operational garbage trucks has a total fleet capacity of 153 TPD
assuming four (4) trips per day per unit which is the present practice now. This is still
possible even with the CMRCF at Barangay Bonbonon because the average one-way
travel or delivery time from the City during off traffic hours is around 20 minutes.
Based from the present status of the said trucks, PSD plans to recondition the said
trucks to extend their operating life to at least 3 to 5 years more depending on the actual
usage ad maintenance. (See Table 3.2 Status of the Existing City Garbage Trucks 2005).
B. Collection Truck Requirements*
With the reconditioning, proper usage, and a good preventive maintenance
system, it is expected that the 1993 batch of trucks may be usable up to 2008, while the
1998 batch could be used up to 2013. This means that with the extended life span of the
existing fleet only a few additional units has to be acquired to meet the expected volume
of MSW. The collection truck requirements for the City are projected as shown in
Table7.1.
The total of five (5) trucks that are need to be acquired up to 2019, particularly
when the present fleet of eleven (11) trucks will be retired by 2013. This requirement
assumes using 8 C.M capacity garbage trucks (press packs and/or dump truck) since
bigger trucks would be difficult to maneuver in the old and narrows streets of the City,
and may even damaged the concrete roads of some subdivisions due to the heavy weight
of the said trucks when fully loaded.
Based form this evaluation, an additional of three (3) trucks (including 1 unit
standby capacity in case of downtime, repair and maintenance) is needed up to 2007. The

10-Years Solid Waste Management Plan

70

remaining requirement could be purchased gradually under the 20% CDF on a yearly
basis, until the full compliment of trucks is acquired by the City.
This approached is the most practical approach with the considerable investment
necessary to buy brand new garbage trucks, and one which takes into consideration the
effort of PSD to prolong the actual usage of their existing fleet through reconditioning
and maintenance.

3. AT THE HOSPITAL / INDUSTRIES LEVEL:


General wastes from hospitals and other health care establishment are treated as
ordinary waste, while medical waste are treated as a special and hazardous waste which
will be handled by the Special and Hazardous waste Facility of the Central Material
Recovery and Composting Facility (see Annex: Special & Hazardous Waste Facility
for details).
The household wastes coming from factories shall be processed at the Central
Material Recovery and Composting Facility, while the hazardous industrial waste shall be
handled by the concerned factory in a special waste management area within their
premises or properties in accordance with the requirements of the Environmental Impact
System (EIS) imposed by the DENR.
The Iligan City Solid Waste Management System Facility also addresses the
Health Care Waste (HCW) coming from Hospitals in the City and including households
hazardous waste. The solid waste from hospitals and other health care establishments are
classified and coded as follows (Source: DOH Health Care Waste Management Manual,
2004):
*CATEGORIES OF HEALTH CARE WASTE (HCW);
1.

General Waste- Comparable to domestic waste, this type of waste does not
pose special handling problem of hazard to human health or to the environment. It
comes mostly from the administrative and housekeeping functions of health care
establishments and may also include waste generated during maintenance of
health care premises. General waste should be dealt with by the municipal waste
disposal system. (Color coding of containers: Green)

2. Infectious Waste- This type of waste is suspected to contain pathogens (bacteria,


viruses, or fungi) in sufficient concentration or quantity to cause disease
insusceptible host. (Color coding of container: yellow)
3. Pathological Waste- Pathological waste consists of tissues, organs, body parts,
human fetus and animal carcasses, blood and body fluids. Within this category,
recognizable hu man or animal body parts are also called anatomical waste. This
category should be consider as a subcategory of infectious waste, even though it

75

Fotenote*: A Feasibility Study Report On The Iligan City Solid Waste Management System Project: City Material Recovery And
Composting Facility, Prepared by the ICSWMB, Engnr. Merlito C. Caolico, ICSWMB-TWC

4. Sharps- Include needles, syringes, scalpels, saws, blades, broken glass, infusion
sets, knives, nails and any other items that can cause a cut or puncture wounds.
Whether or not they infected, such items are usually considered as highly
hazardous health care waste. (Container: puncture proof)
5. Pharmaceutical waste- Includes expired, unused, spilt, and contaminated
pharmaceutical products, drugs, vaccines, and sera that are no longer required and
need to be disposed of appropriately. This category also includes discarded items
used in handling of such as bottles or boxes with residues, gloves, and masks,
connecting tubing and drug vials. (Color coding of container: yellow)
6. Genotoxic Waste- Genotoxic waste may include certain cytostatic drugs, vomit,
urine, or feces from patients treated with cytostatic drugs, chemicals, and
radioactive materials. This type of waste is highly hazardous and may have
mutagenic, teratogenic, or carcinogenic properties. (Color coding of container:
orange)
7. Chemical Waste- Chemical waste consists of discarded solid, liquid, and gaseous
chemical, for example from diagnostic and experimental work and from cleaning,
housekeeping, and disinfecting procedures. Chemical waste from health care may
be hazardous or non-hazardous. (Color coding of container: yellow with black
band)
8. Waste with high content of heavy metals- Wastes with a high heavy-metal
content represent a subcategory of hazardous chemical waste, and are usually
highly toxic. Mercury wastes are typically generated by spillage from broken
clinical equipment (thermometers, blood pressure gauges, etc.) Whenever
possible, spilled drops of mercury should be recovered. Residues from dentistry
have high mercury content. Cadmium waste comes mainly from discarded
batteries. Certain reinforced wood panels containing lead is still being used in
radiation proofing of X-ray and diagnostic department. A number of drugs contain
arsenic but these are treated here as pharmaceutical waste. (Color coding of
container: yellow with black band)

10-Years Solid Waste Management Plan

76

9. Pressurized Containers- Many types of gas are used in health care and are often
stored in pressurized cylinders, cartridges, and aerosol cans. Many of these, once
empty or of no further use (although they may still contain residues), are reusable,
but certain types notably aerosol cans, must be disposed of Whether inert or
potentially harmful; gases in pressurized containers should always be handled
with care; containers may explode if incinerated or accidentally punctured. (Color
coding of container: red)
10. Radioactive Waste- Includes disused scaled radiation sources, liquid and
gaseous materials contaminated with radioactivity. Excreta of patients who
underwent radio-nuclide diagnostic and therapeutic applications, paper cups,
straw, needles and syringes, test tubes, and tap water washing of such
paraphernalia. It is produced as a result of procedures such as in vitro analysis of
body tissues and fluids, in vivo organ imaging, tumor localization and treatment,
and various clinical studies involving the use of radioisotopes. Radioactive health
care wastes generally contain radionuclides with short half-lives, which lose their
activity in a shorter time. However, certain radionuclides e.g C-14 contaminated
wastes have much longer half-life, more than a thousand years, which need to be
specially managed in a centralized treatment facility for radio actives wastes. The
same is required for the management of disused sealed radiation sources used for
cancer treatment. (Color coding of container: orange)
*Hospital & Health Care Waste Establishment Management Plan:
The city shall construct a Special and Hazardous Waste Facility that shall have the
following facilities: autoclave building, concrete lined vault, and concrete line burial pit.
*Concept of the Proposed Special and Hazardous Waste Facility;
1. Hospitals and other such types of medical and health establishments shall have
the option to rent from the city a 10 x 10 meters plot to construct their own
burial pit instead of at their premises. The City shall fence and secure the area,
as well as maintain the drainage and other ancillary facilities in the area.

10-Years Solid Waste Management Plan

77

2. Other small health care facilities in the city could use the concrete lined vault
and burial pit operated by the city for a certain fee to be established by City
Ordinance.
3. The hospitals could also use the auto clave facility also operated by the city to
Disinfect the Health Care Waste (HCW).

Composting Facility, Prepared by the ICSWMB, Engnr. Merlito C. Caolico, ICSWMB-TWC

4. The basic steps in health care waste management handling shall adopt the
procedures in the DOH Health Care Waste Management Manual (2004) (as
shown in Annex 4. Basic Steps in the Health Care Waste Handling Figure 1
of the DOH Manual: Feasibility Studies SWM) except that the special and
hazardous waste shall be disposed of by encapsulation in concrete vault /
burial pit instead of the sanitary land fill.
5. All hazardous waste from the household, markets, commercial and
institutional sources shall be handled by the Special and Hazardous Waste
Facility in the same manner for the Health Care Waste.
6. The rental fee for the autoclave, burial pits and concrete vaults, and open space
plots shall be determined by the City, which shall be sufficient to have a return
for the operation and maintenance of the said facility.

7.4 RECYCLING / COMPOSTING PLAN

The current existence of continues recycling activity component and


implementation have great role on solid waste minimization in accordance to divert waste
as mandated in Section 20 of the Act and Section 7 Rule VII of the DAO- IRR of R.A
9003. The recycling component describe in PRMDP: SWM Master Plan notified its
level of recycling efforts:
1. Potential revenue from recyclable/ recovered materials such as Bottles, Paper,
Tin, Aluminum, Plastic, Copper and other items specified.
2. Shows potential benefits.

COMPOSTING MATERIALS: Organic compost will undergone a biological


process called aerobic decomposition whereby microorganism feed on waste and

10-Years Solid Waste Management Plan

80

converted it into humus or compost. The raw materials for composting include: 1) Yard
Waste, 2) Separated or commingled Municipal Solid Waste-MSW, 3) Animal waste
mixed with carbonaceous waste such as garbage and crop/yard before composting. The
compost can be used as soil conditioner and/or soil fertilizer depending on its quality
upgrading process. The bio-waste undergoes a controlled decomposition process in
windrows or in rotary composting bins, which takes 7 to 21 days processing time on a
properly mixed biomass, moisture, and air. Curing phase is at least one week or 15 days.
MARKETING of Compost: The target markets of organic compost are the
farmers cooperative for agricultural land use productivity. The plan is to encourage,
demonstrating, recommend the farmers to use available organic compost at very low cost
and qualified quantity.

7.5 Diversion Plan of Waste


The Iligan City Solid Waste Management Plan is to establish MRF for each Barangay for
the diversion of waste to collect recyclable/recoverable material and biodegradable
waste at source. The BMRF will also process and collect the excess segregated waste
from the barangay generation to maintain Eighty tons or lesser for the operation of central
MRCF at BRGY. Bonbonon.

The assistance of LGU will be provided to the Pilot

Barangay Recycling / Composting Facility at Brgy. Del Carmen and support other
constituents who are undertaking participatory activity in the establishment of Barangay
MRF. Promoting and strengthening sales and market of recyclable from BMRF would
probably reduce by 25% of waste flow from final disposal.
*The marketing of the Barangay MRF products shall principle by the
responsibility of each Barangay since the operation of the MRF is under their control
however, the City through the marketing staff shall assist the Barangay with their
products as follows:
1. Networking with other LGU s and big buyer of compost and recyclables
2. Arrange for marketing summits, and fairs to bring the buyers and Barangay
together.
3. Arrange for the use of the City of some Barangay MRF outputs if the City
requirements cannot be met by the City Material Recovery and Composting
facility.
4. Provide seminars, lectures and other marketing and administrative support.
5. Arrange for a bulk purchase of all products of the Barangays under a common
brand name and advertisement of Barangay MRF products together with that
of the CMRCF.

DISPOSAL CAPACITY
*The processing center will be handling 80 tons MSW:
The projected volume of municipal solid waste (MSW) of the City is 125 ton per
day (at 0.69 kg. per capita and at 8 5 % collection efficiency, assumed % Reduction).
Eighty tons (80 tpd) shall be processed by the CMRCF (see Table 3.6) while the
remainder of 45 tons shall be handle by the Barangays who are mandated by R.A. 9003
to also set up their own individual Material Recovery Facility. An active waste
segregation program shall also be instituted immediately in order to reduce the volumes
expected for processing.
LIFESPAN*: This site can solve the garbage problems for the next 50 years.
Acceptable Technology*(Technical Aspect):
A. Projects Highlights*
The City of Iligan under the administration of Hon. Lawrence L. Cruz has
accelerated the implementation of the solid waste management program that will solve
the MSW problem of the city in accordance with R.A. 9003 or known as the Ecological
Solid Waste Management Act of 2000 (ESWM).
The projected volume of municipal solid waste (MSW) of the City is 125 ton per
day (at 0.69 kg. per capita and at 0.85 % collection efficiency of Table 3.6) Eighty tons
(80 tpd) shall be processed by the CMRCF while the remainder of 45 tons shall be
handled by the Barangays who are mandated by R.A. 9003 to also set up their own
individual Material Recovery Facility. An active waste segregation program shall also be
instituted immediately in order to reduce the volumes expected for processing.

The residual wastes from the Barangay MRF shall be handled by the CMRCF,
including any excess solid waste volume they could not process, as well as the processing
and storage of biodegradable (if they will decide to limit their MRF operation to only
sorting and recycling of non biodegradable solid waste) (See Figure 7.1a Schematic
Diagram of the Iligan City Iligan City Solid Waste Management System). This scheme is
adopted because of the possibility that the Barangays may not have the financial
capability to construct. Operate and maintain a full-blown Barangay Material Recovery
Facility with segregation, shredding, and composting ability. Many Barangays in fact has
already indicated that they prefer a scaled down MRF that will handled only segregation,
especially, the selling of recyclables- since this has immediate income generating
possibilities. Thus, this proposed system is design to be fully capable of absorbing all
solid waste inputs expected from the Barangay.
The City government will obtain funds for the immediate capital investment
required to set up this facility by obtaining a loan from the Environmental Solid Waste
Fund of the Development Bank of the Philippines, or other financing institutions.
As briefly mentioned above, the City government shall bid out, in accordance
with R.A. 9184 (or the Government Procurement Reform Act), the MRCF equipment
supply and the management (designated as the Facility Manager) of the facility for 3 to
5 years utilizing a fixed working capital set up at the beginning of the project. The City
shall shoulder the cost of payroll, power and other inputs while the facility Manager will
absorb the cost of the solid inoculants inputs to enhance the marketability of the organic
compost fertilizer produced.
The Facility Manager / equipment supplier will not be paid a management fee but
instead a profit share of up to 40%. In addition, the Facility Manager will be entitled to
the equivalent of 70% of the organic compost fertilizer produced from the CMRCF to

The 15 year Cast Projection (Table 11.4) indicates the projects strong financial
capability to pay the investment cost and sustain the solid waste operations for the city. It
will be the major responsibility of the designated Facility Manager to operate the
CMRCF without continuously asking operating funds from the City government, but to
operate the CMRCF on its own sustainable resources earlier than the contracted fiveyear period.
This project is expected to be a model CMRCF project that can motivate the City
of Iligan community and environ LGUs to become involved in the effective
implementation of the solid waste management act. The program envisions the
establishment and operation of a factory approach to an organic compost fertilizer plant
using biodegradable garbage as raw material input, with recyclables as by- products.
B. Production Program*
Solid Waste shall be brought in by the City collectors truck (using the existing10
truck, which shall be reconditioned, and 3 brand new 8 CM capacity trucks under the
PSD). Presumed volume for initial processing will be 80 tons per day with an average
waste character of 68% biodegradable waste and 32% non-biodegradable waste. If the
waste character changes, the equipment system has the flexibility to adapt to the volume
changes through a simple re-assignment of workers to where the volume has had
increases.
The process flow within the Central Material Recovery and Composting Facility
for 80 tpd is described below (Refer to Figure 11.1 Process Flow Diagram and Mass
Balance for the City Material Recovery and Composting Facility):
1. Garbage Trucks backing up through a Ramp Riser are brought in and dumped to a 5
tons load Receiving Hopper. There is a need to establish a sequential and schedule

94

collector truck arrival in order that down time and traffic movements can be
controlled. Power sprayers with enzymes to eliminate or reduce odor could be used
at this point on the MSW especially for the unbagged garbage.

95

Fotenote*: A Feasibility Study Report On The Iligan City Solid Waste Management System Project: City Material Recovery And
Composting Facility, Prepared by the ICSWMB, Engr. Merlito C. Catolico, ICSWMB-TWC

2. The pathogenic or toxic (batteries, aerosol cans, paint cans, oils, etc.) heavy or large
materials are hand picked out of the Hopper and placed in the Recyclable Trolleys.
3. Garbage in bags passes through two (2) persons who undertake manual bag breaking
or slitting of the bags/sacks. Other materials move through a Mechanical Conveyor
that feeds into a Trommel Screener.
4. The Trommel Screener removes small particles of waste like candy wrappers, small
fruits and maggots. It also loosens up the garbage to make them available for easy
manual sorting when they pass through the conveyor station.
5. Screened materials move into a 4-way conveyor sort station manned by sorter /
pickers / classifiers.
6. 1st pass conveyor removes biodegradable waste and this is selected, picked and
thrown into an feed Conveyor moving into the Hammer mill / Shredder.
7. At this station, the Solid Inoculants is sprinkled to the bio-waste for faster
decomposition, odor control, and amendment to increased the carbon content and
absorptive properties of the organic compost fertilizer being produced.
8. 2nd pass Conveyor removes primarily plastic waste.
9. 3rd pass conveyor removes metal, glass, paper, and rubber.
10. 4th pass Conveyor removes toxic or non-recyclable objects.
11. The conveyor brings unsorted materials backs into position 1st pass conveyor and onand-on until the sorting and classification of materials is satisfactorily completed.
12. In the entire receiving, conveying and sorting process, there will be no leach ate
experienced. Water drips from wet garbage or out of hammer milling will be
eliminated as soon as Screw Conveyor which distributes the Facility Manager
Carbon amendment attaches to the wet raw material. All other periphery canals to
totally avoid any liquid flow out of the CMRCF.
13. Biodegradable waste is hammer milled, and the output conveyed into either Rotary
Composter Drums (5-day early composting specially for odorous waste) and Static
Aerated Pile Greenhouse type Composter Bins 30 day composting).

10-Years Solid Waste Management Plan

96

14. The output organic compost fertilizer is allowed to mature after harvest for 45 days,
screened and packed in bags for farming use or commercial sale.

Composting Facility, Prepared by the ICSWMB, Engr. Merlito C. Catolico, ICSWMB-TWC

15. The non-biodegradable are further sorted, classified, washed, pressed, etc. these are
then baled, crushed, compacted, ready for sale to junk shop operators.
16. Non-toxic residual waste ordinarily destined for land filling are brought to a heavy
duty crushing machine and flaked. The flakes are used as at least 50% mixture
together and in lieu of sand and are converted into concrete bricks, pavement stones,
or any other formed cement structure, using mixers and concrete molds. These output
materials are ideal for beautification programs in parks, bangketas, drainage canals,
fencing, dividers, etc.
17. Remaining materials such as toxic are the only garbage materials that are baled and
compacted and either neatly stockpiled or brought to the non-organic residuals
storage facility or further processing. (Note: This CMRCF site will not have any land
filling activity. If at all, a concrete lined landfill for toxic and hazardous waste
materials, at minimal expense and maintenance cost using the encapsulation
technology shall be constructed. The lined excavation will be covered and from
rainfall.)
18. Organic compost fertilizers are utilized for organic farming. They can be upgraded
with chicken manure to make them commercial grade for marketing. The compost
formulation can be used in rice, corn, sugar cane fruits trees, flower, vegetable farms
and even fish farms.
C. Manpower Complement*
For the 80 tons per day volume, the project will provide direct employment to a
total of 97 personnel working into two-8 hour shift per day, 365 days of the year. Some
workers are involved in concrete brick production, maintenance, utility and security
services, and administrative staff.
The personnel complement for the Central Material Recovery and Composting
Facility will include the following:

In order to avoid displacement of existing scavenger workers, the Facility


Manager shall train and employ workers all to come from the city, except the
management and supervisory and technical staff. The workers are to be paid at not less
than the legal minimum wage rates. They are also provided with employee benefits
including uniforms (three uniforms per year) and safety devices, and shall be covered
with Social Security and medical care benefits.
The total personnel requirement for the entire facility includes those from the
existing collection services of PSD, the Central Material Recovery and Composting
Facility as mentioned above, the agri demo garden, the butterfly farm, the residuals
management area, products center, motor pool, security, maintenance personnel,
cafeteria, and the administrative staff. The actual requirement is seasonal as it increases
or decreases depending upon the actual requirement during particular periods. This
however will be handled by the hiring of casuals, as is the current practice in the City.
The existing and estimated personnel requirement is as shown in Table 9.2 Tabulation of

SITE DEVELOPMENT PLAN


* Land Site Requirements
On the site will be constructed initially a 2,650 sq. m. building structure roofed
and concrete floored (with a greenhouse design) to house the processing and sorting
equipments. There will also be a 500 sq. m. Storage Shed / Recycling Center, twentythree (23) Composting Green House Type Bins with hollow block. Total required area is
5 hectares including demo agri-garden and other facilities describe above.
A portion of the land will be devoted to organic farming to test and demonstrate
the efficacy of the organic compost fertilizer to be produced. The site will have electric
three phase power lines, water system and drainage. An interceptor canal along the
perimeter of the Central Material Recovery and Composting Facility shall be constructed
to intercept and control the volume of surface run-off of the project site catchments area.
A completely design has already been prepared and is attached to the study.
The City Engineers office and the ICSWMB shall supply all the technical
specifications needed for the CMRCF installation, including electrical power
requirements and layout, building and equipment layout, structural specifications, other
civil works such as drainage and culverts, water and electrical system, storage facility
arrangements to be in compliance with DENR regulations, and other pertinent laws. See
Figure 2.2 Site Development Plan Of CMRCF.

7.7 CLOSURE PLAN OF EXISTING OPEN DUMPSITE


Based in Article 5 Section 37 of R.A 9003, No open dumps shall be operated upon
the affectivity of act, provided that LGU shall convert its open dump into controlled fill
with the following guidelines;
1.) Regular inert cover
2.) Drainage control
3.) Fencing for litter control & waste picking
4.) Maintain access road
5.) Vegetation
6.) Provision for aerobic & anaerobic decomposition
7.) Record keeping & monitoring
8.) Hydrological setting.
The City is currently operating a controlled dumpsite, which shall be closed upon
the operation of the Central MRCF and of the Barangay MRF. The improvement activity
set at the dumpsite was covering with soil, peripheral site drainage control for run-off
surface water, and installation of vent pipes for gas emission and medical assistance for
the residents area. These plans to rehabilitate and upgrade controlled dumpsite have been
initially initiated by the LGU and City Engineer Office.

7.8 MARKET DEVELOPMENT PLAN AND LIVELIHOOD OPERATIONS


* Disposal of Central MRCF Products
The marketing of the Central Material Recovery and Composting Facility
products is an essential element in the success and sustainability of the operation of this
facility. For this purpose, the City shall adopt the strategy as explained below.
The program of operations of the Central Material Recovery and Composting
Facility shall have the following four (4) outputs:
1.) Recyclable saleable materials,
2.) Organic compost fertilizer,

10-Years Solid Waste Management Plan

102

3.) Residuals into concrete bricks, and


4.) Baled residuals for long storage or future inventory disposition.
The recyclables although already sorted at the household and collected on
different schedules will be finally reclassified, sorted, washed and baled at the Central
Material Recovery and Composting Facility. There are regular junk buyers located in the
city and the nearby provinces but as the volumes of recyclables develop, the buyers will
be the one to converge to the City based on the experience of other managed Central
Material Recovery and Composting Facility projects.
The current scavengers of the City particularly in Barangay Santiago shall be
given the opportunity to form their own multipurpose scavengers cooperative. If they are
able to form this properly, the city can allow the Coop members to sort out all of the
saleable recyclables as part of their groups income instead of to the City. The City shall
not however pay them for the sorting and classification effort. The scavengers shall
benefit mostly from non- competition, working in a roofed environment and away from
rain and sunshine all day long, and support benefits for uniforms and safety devices.
The advantages of organic compost will be demonstrated in the remaining vacant
land areas adjacent to the CMRCF site and in nearby farmlands to be leased (see fig. 2.2
Site Development Plan of the Central Material Recovery and Composting Facility in
Brgy. Bonbonon). These farms will become demonstration and training areas for the city
residents.

Composting Facility, Prepared by the ICSWMB, Engnr. Merlito C. Caolico, ICSWMB-TWC

The Facility Manager should also have a regular organic farming and sales
distribution group that takes care of marketing of the organic compost fertilizers and a
network of market outlets. This shall be included in the Terms of Reference for the
bidding, and will thus insure a steady outlet of the CMRCF outputs.
The application of compost in various Abaca plantations in the City to
demonstrate the quality and growth of properly organically fertilized plants is also
possible market strategy. Abaca takes two years to provide for its first income, but,
subsequently after, the multiplier effect is in multiples of 5. Wholesale supply of compost
to abaca and other plantations in the Philippines especially now that many developing
countries in the world favors organically grown agri products could also be negotiated by
the marketing section of the CMRCF.
Concrete bricks will be manufactured during the day shift. Output will primarily
be transferred to the city for their civil works, infrastructure and beautification programs
under a pre- agreed upon cost arrangement. The CEO and Barangays could avail of these
products in their non load bearing bricks requirements at a reduced price but with the
income still accruing to the CMRCF operations remainder of the production will be sold
by a full time sales person through a wholesale distribution scheme to be developed in
detail by the Iligan City Solid Waste Management Board: TWC on Livelihood and
Marketing. *

7.9 IEC-INFORMATION, EDUCATION, CAMPAIGN PLANS /PROGRAM


Based on Section 55 0f R.A. 9003, Public Education and Information is important
to conduct a continuing education and information campaign on solid waste management.
The program shall aim to develop public awareness of the ill effects of the solid waste
problem and the solutions in a community-based approach. The IEC shall concentrate on
practical activities that will have the greatest impact on solid waste management like
resource conservation and recovery, recycling, segregation at source, re-used, reduction,
and composting. Aim to encourage general public, accredited NGOs and people
organization an intensified and sustainable information campaign relevant to waste
minimization.
Through the efforts of the DILG, DECS, TESDA, CHED, PIA, DENR,
Government Agencies, NGOs and Private Institutions as commissioning committee on
Education Information Campaign (IEC) strengthen immediate initiation of the activity
and plans of environmental concern at all level in Barangay which includes household
residents, private individuals, schools, institution, markets, hospitals and clinics,
commercial and industrial to reduced waste for MRCF processing.
The JGB Guevarra Foundation, Inc. (NGOs) is identified to have Participative act
in undertaking a waste minimization and resource recovery program in Iligan City under
the supervision of ICSWM. They had organized barangay as pilot communities for
household segregation and recycling recovery at source.
