IMPORTANT NOTICE
Please be informed that effective immediately, the LGU Culaba MENRO will no longer collect unsegregated waste from any barangay.
This measure is necessary because the Municipal Solid Waste Disposal Facility is currently under the Safe Closure and Rehabilitation implementation and is subject to regular monitoring and inspection by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR). In addition, the Residual Containment Area (RCA) has limited remaining capacity and can only accommodate properly managed residual waste.
Please be reminded that the Municipality has been implementing and repeatedly reminding all barangays of the “No Segregation, No Collection” policy since April 2026, providing ample time for the full implementation of segregation at source in accordance with Republic Act No. 9003 (Ecological Solid Waste Management Act of 2000).
Accordingly, only properly segregated residual waste shall be accepted for collection. Unsegregated waste will no longer be collected and will be left at the point of collection until it has been properly segregated by the concerned barangay.
We respectfully request all barangays to strengthen the implementation of waste segregation at source, maximize the operation of their Materials Recovery Facilities (MRFs), apply the knowledge gained from the trainings and seminars conducted in Cebu and Baguio City and ensure that residents comply with the municipal solid waste management policies.
Your cooperation is essential in ensuring compliance with environmental laws, extending the service life of the Residual Containment Area, and protecting the environment.
For your information, guidance, and strict compliance.
