other local government units, NGO’s, & the private sector which may include the row of
businesses in the locality who are also considered primary waste generators;
WHEREAS, the barangay being the lowest local governing body nearest to the people and as
provided for in the implementation of its roles and responsibilities vested in the local
government code of 1990, it is therefore the duty and obligation of the barangay to impose
significant programs to help the government in its combat against the uncontrolled generation of
solid wastes;

a balanced and healthful ecology in accord with the rhythm and harmony of nature as stipulated

necessary to require all sari-sari store, food stand and carinderia owners/operators and vendors
to put trash can/trash bin in front of their establishment & to properly manage solid wastes
generated during their operation by practicing waste segregation, hence the national goal of a
zero waste volume of the government may be achieved later in the long run;
