The city planned solid waste projects under the Ecological Solid Waste Management Act but could not fully carry them out because it did not have enough staff. Even after hiring more people for the environment office, the materials recovery facility is still not fully running, so the city is not getting the full benefit of its waste management plans.

Original Audit Finding Excerpt

"The City has substantially complied with the applicable provisions of the R.A. No. 9003, otherwise known as the Ecological Solid Waste Management Act of 2000, on the formulation of SWM PPAs. However, due to the lack of manpower, full implementation of programmed PPAs was not achieved."
