The problem of waste is an ecological concern and should not be taken for granted. Various environmental problems arise from improper waste disposal and inappropriate treatment of waste could exacerbate the waste problem and have a major bearing on the health impacts of the residents. Thus, based on the findings, the following recommendations are given: The local government unit of Bansalan must continue to impose and monitor the implementation of Health and Sanitation Ordinance, specifically the Comprehensive Solid Waste Management in order to ensure a high participation of the residents. Also, the barangay officials must continue to initiate movements in order to help the municipal government in the implementation of the ordinance on their jurisdiction. In order to enforce the residents to follow the provisions of the ordinance, it is recommended that the Municipal Government must strictly impose the penalty for each violation. Finally, the residents should continue participate and cooperate highly with the Municipal Ordinance.
