The Local Government Unit of Isabela City has officially launched the Waste Analysis and Characterization Study (WACS) 2026, a vital initiative aimed at updating our existing waste data and strengthening our Solid Waste Management plans for the years ahead.
Guided by the visionary leadership of Hon. Mayor Sitti Djalia Turabin-Hataman, this activity is made possible through the generous support of DENR-EMB Region IX and the EU-PH Green Economy Partnership (GEP).
Running from August 4 to 6, 2026, the study covers all 45 barangays across Isabela City, as well as business establishments, schools, public institutions, and hospitals.
The findings gathered from this comprehensive assessment will serve as the official basis for our future city planning, the design and implementation of effective waste management programs, and for securing assistance and grants from partner agencies and organizations.
Leading the conduct of the activity are key officials and teams: Engr. Karen C. Tandang (DENR-EMB 9 SWM Unit Chief), CENRO Albino Orbecido, CGSO Eugene B. Strong, SWM Focal Saddam Y. Lagoyo, together with the MRF staff, Sea Sweepers Team, ITFD, Barangays officials, and other dedicated personnel from the City General Services Office.
This effort reflects our shared commitment to build a cleaner, healthier, and more sustainable Isabela Cityโone that we can all be proud of.
