DENR backs solid waste plan

Environment Secretary Ramon Paje on Sunday committed to lending his agency’s technical skills to an initiative of the Office of the Ombudsman that would ensure that all cities, municipalities and provinces complied with the solid waste management law.

In a statement, Paje said the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) fully backed the three-year Solid Waste Management Compliance Program for all local government units (LGUs) that was launched on Earth Day by the Office of the Ombudsman.

“The DENR commits itself to lending its technical expertise to the Office of the Ombudsman in monitoring the LGUs’ compliance with the law and to cooperate with other agencies and environmental groups to ensure the success of the program,” Paje said.
