CEBU CITY, Philippines -- The long term solution to the foul smell in Barangay Kalunasan in Cebu City will be a permanent waste water treatment facility and Mayor Edgardo Labella wants the project

Labella wants P20-million facility constructed within the year as long term solution to the foul smell issue in KalunasanInmates at the Cebu Provincial Detention and Rehabilitation Center numbered about 2,500 as of end of 2019, which is a thousand more that its capacity of 1,500.

Engineer Kenneth Carmelita Enriquez, the head of DEPW, told CDN Digital on Saturday, January 25, that the DEPW does not have the expertise in designing a waste water treatment facility, and a private company will have to do it. Use of toilet facilities in both jails is high since they are filled beyond their capacity. At present, there are about 2,500 inmates inside the CPDRC, or about a thousand more than its 1,500 capacity.

Labella said the city government has been doing what it could to solve the smell, including the constant hauling of the wastes by the Department of Public Services and hiring of third-party haulers to do for a daily hauling.Since the water treatment facility has already been allotted a budget of P20 million, Labella on Saturday, January 25, 2020, that resources have been provided for the barangay’s problem.
