2.1. Barangay Profile

City belong to City Proper (Poblacion) in the late 1950’s. It was then Part of
Licuan, Del Mar Street going to Pier.

situated in Corrales Extension of the said City. At present, the Barangay has a
total of 78 household with 598 total individuals and a total land area of 4.7
hectares. Most of the households’ income comes from the labor/ commercial

2.3. Key Issues

The Act was enacted more than a decade but the implementation of the
Ecological Solid Waste Management (ESWM) in the Barangay has been
problematic. The Barangay has been challenged to fully comply with the
provisions of the law likewise influencing the constituents to actively
participate in the implementation at the community level. The following key
issues/factors affecting the implementation of the ESWM in the Barangay
during the action planning last February 12, 2017:

 No MRF
 Lack of Enforcement
 No Discipline
 No proper Segregation
 No proper collection schedule
 Clogged drainage

However, those issues have been slowly addressed. The Barangay has now a
MRF for recyclable only. With the help of CCTV the Barangay are now
enforcing the ordinance of the Barangay. Moreover, Segregation is now on
60% more or less. Regular de-clogging is being implemented.

Barangay projected a total of 606.48 kg/day was generated. The wastes
