One of the Eco-aides was given the responsibility of managing the maintenance of the
MRF. Aside from collecting the garbage’s, he was ordered to oversee the proper sorting of
the wastes, the cleanliness inside and outside of the MRF and to see to it that everything
inside the MRF is in order.
The BSWM Board had contracted the buyer of recyclable wastes who had offered prices
that deems advantageous to the interest of the barangay. Presently, the contracted junkshop
is purchasing the recyclable wastes.
6. Enforcement
The BSWM Board officers saw to it that the continuity of the program must be given the
highest priority. In so doing, they recommended to the Barangay Chairman and his Council
Members to adopt the Penal Provisions as stated in Chapter Six Section 48 on Prohibited
Acts of the Solid Waste Management Act of 2000. They had given the barangay council
leeway on which prohibited acts to adopt and enact. Correspondingly, the barangay council
opted to adopt and enact to assure that the following prohibited acts be avoided:
CHAPTER VI
PENAL PROVISIONS
SEC. 48. Prohibited Acts. – The following acts are prohibited:
16
Barangay San Gabriel
Municipality of Sta. Maria
Province of Bulacan
(1) Littering, throwing, dumping of waste matters in public places, such as roads,
sidewalks, canals, esteros or parks, and establishment, or causing or permitting the
same;
(3) The open burning of solid waste;
(4) Causing or permitting the collection of non-segregated or unsorted wastes;
Consistent with its intent to ensure the continuity of the program, the BSWM Board
requested the Barangay Council to identify the group that would enforce the adopted
ordinances. In the same way, the Barangay Council identified all the Barangay Councilors
and Members of the Barangay Police as the enforcement team.
After identifying the enforcement team, the Barangay Council as affirmed by the
Barangay Chairman deputized the following individuals and groups as the enforcement
team:
All of the members of the barangay council, the barangay police and the mother leaders
were required to attend the very first seminar on RA 9003 given at the roof top of the
barangay hall. The enforcement teams were identified during this meeting. After which,
they were oriented on the provisions for the prohibited acts of the RA 9003.
17
Barangay San Gabriel
Municipality of Sta. Maria
Province of Bulacan
It was so agreed that some of the prohibited acts are to be adopted and enacted. Fines and
penalties are to be imposed upon violators who are non-resident of the barangay.
However, if the violations were committed by someone and identified as a resident of the
barangay, he will be invited to a hearing at the barangay hall. During such hearing before
the barangay chairman, he will be reprimanded for committing a violation. Failure to
attend the hearing after three (3) invitations, the barangay chairman may invoke his right
to cite the violators in contempt. Once the Municipal Judge accepts the complaint of
contempt for failure to present himself for a hearing on his violations, the violator may
serve some jail time.
However, the penalties and fines can still apply to a resident of the barangay depending on
the severity of the violation.

8. Ang mga kabahayan naman na nasa lansangang nasa ruta ng garbage truck ay ilabas ang
kanilang basura sa harap ng tahanan at ito rin ay susuriin kung tama ang ginawang
pagbubukod-bukod at ang kokolektahin lamang ay ang mga segregated na basura. Tandaan
na magkaibang araw ang koleksiiyon ng basurang nabubulok at di-nabubulok.
9. Ang mga basurang di- nabubulok ay tatlong uri:
1. basurang nareresiklo o pwedeng ibenta
2. basurang walang pakinabang o dapat ng itapon
3. basurang special at dapat pag-ingatan
10. Ang mga basurang nabubulok ay hinihikayat ang bawat sambahayan na magsagawa ng
pagkokompost o tamang pagbubulok ng basura upang maging abono o pataba sa halaman,
maaari rin naman itong ibigay sa nangongolekta ng basura sa takdang araw ng koleksiyon.
11. Kaugnay ng programang ito sa basura ay ipinaaalam na ang bawat sambahayan ay
pinakikiusapang maglinis ng lansangang na nasa tapat ng kanilang tahanan (Tapat ko, linis
ko).
12. Ipinakikiusap po ang inyong pakikipagtulungan sa pagsasaayos ng basura at alalahanin na
ito ay para sa higit na kapakinabangan ng pamayanan.
13. Lubos pong pinasasalamatan ang inyong pakikipagtulungan sa programang ito.

(Pangangasiwa sa Basura)
Ipinakikiusap po na ang mga basurang nabubulok (bumabaho) lalo na ang galing sa kusina
ay isagawa ang mga tagubiling ito upang maiwasan ang pangangamoy nito sa kapaligiran.
1. Ang pinagbukod na basurang nabubulok lalo na ang mga bumabaho partikular ang galing sa
kusina ay isaayos ang pagsisinop.
2. Ilagay ito sa isang supot na plastik at dito ipunin ang mga basurang bumabaho.

Province of Bulacan
3. Ang supot na plastik ay ilagay naman sa isang sisidlang timba o lata o alin mang lalagyang
natatakpan at siguruhin na di mabubungkal ng aso o pusa.
4. Iimbak dito ang basurang nabubulok (bumabaho) na naipon sa maghapon at tabunan ito ng
ilang dakot na abo o ipang sunog upang maiwasan ang pangangamoy nito at pagbahayan ng
mga insekto.
5. Ganito ang gawin sa araw- araw at ibigay ang naipong nabubulok na basura sa araw ng
koleksiyon nito sa mga kolektor ng barangay.
6. Sa ganitong paraan ay masisinop natin ang mga basurang ito ng hindi babaho at di gagapangan
ng mga insekto.
7. Maaaring humingi ng ipang sunog sa barangay hall at kailangan lamang na magdala ng sakong
basyo kapalit ng mga nakasakong abo ng ipa.
Inaasahan po ang inyong pakikipagtulungan sa gawaing ito na ang layunin ay para sa kaayusan ng
ating kapaligiran.
Basically, the monitoring and evaluation of the progress of the implementation of Republic
Act 9003 is done daily. The collective act of monitoring the everyday goings-on is placed at
the hands of the Barangay Chairman and his council assisted by the Barangay Police chief and
his members. The different routines by the Eco-aides, the collection of disposed waste by the
Municipal Garbage Trucks, the cleanliness of the surroundings of the barangay, the
maintenance of the MRF and the Collection Transfer Stations, and the maintenance of the
equipments are monitored almost daily.
The RA 9003 implementations relative success is the highlight of the program. Absenteeism
and Tardiness amongst the Eco-aides is very minimal if not negligible. Likewise, complaints
from the residents of the barangay are very much negligible.
Finally, since the implementation is at its infancy problems may arise. However, the
willingness of the Barangay Chairman, the Barangay Council and the SWM Board to see its
success, all problems will be dealt with appropriately.
