Said controlled dumps shall be eliminatedfive years after the effectivity of R.A. 9003.SECTION 55. Permit for Solid Waste Management Facility Construction andExpansion. No person shall commence operation, including site preparation andconstruction of a new solid waste management facility or the expansion of an existing facilityuntil said person obtains an Environmental Compliance Certificate (ECC) from the DENRpursuant to P.D. 1586 and other permits and clearances from concerned agencies.SECTION 56. Guidelines for Controlled Dumps. ng>Theng> following shall be theminimum considerations for the establishment of controlled dumps:1. Regular inert cover;254

2. Surface water and peripheral site drainage control;3. Provision for aerobic and anaerobic decomposition;4. Restriction of waste deposition to small working areas;5. Fence, including provision for litter control;6. Basic record-keeping;7. Provision of maintained access road;8. Controlled waste picking and trading;9. Post-closure site cover and vegetation; and10.Hydrogeological siting.SECTION 57. Solid Waste and Wastewater Disposal. All manufacturing andindustrial establishments, similar business firms and residential establishments shall installacceptable solid waste and wastewater disposal facilities in accordance with nationalstandards except residential establishments subject to regular inspection by the MunicipalEnvironment Office.SECTION 58. Sanitary Landfill. ng>Theng> Municipal Government shall establish a wastedisposal site that conforms to the minimum criteria for choosing the site of sanitary landfillssuch as:1. ng>Theng> site selected must be consistent with the overall land use plan of theMunicipal Government;2. ng>Theng> site must be accessible to major roadways or thoroughfares;3. ng>Theng>re should have an adequate quantity of earth cover material that is easilyhandled and compacted;4. It must be chosen with regard for the sensitivities of the constituents;5. It must be located in an area where the landfill operation will not detrimentallyaffect environmentally sensitive resources such as aquifer ground water reservoiror watershed area;6. ng>Theng> site should be large enough to accommodate the community’s wastes for aperiod of five (5) years during which people must internalize the value ofenvironmentally sound and sustainable solid waste disposal;7. It should facilitate developing a landfill that will satisfy budgetary constraintsincluding site development, operation for many years, closure, post-closure careand possible remediation costs;8. Operating plans must include provisions for coordinating with recycling andresource recovery projects; and9. Designation of a separate containment area for household hazardous wastes.SECTION 59. Criteria for Establishment of Sanitary Landfill. ng>Theng> following shallbe the minimum criteria for the establishment of sanitary landfills:1. Liners – a system of clay layers and or geosynthetic membranes used to containleachate and reduce or prevent contaminant flow to groundwater;2. Leachate collection and treatment system – installation of pipes at the low areas ofthe liner to collect leachate for storage and eventual treatment and discharge;3. Gas control and recovery system – a series of vertical wells or horizontal trenchescontaining permeable materials and perforated piping placed in the landfill to collectgas for treatment or productive use of an energy source;4. Groundwater monitoring well system – wells placed at an appropriate location anddepth for taking water samples that are representative of groundwater quality;255
