SAN JOSE DE BUENAVISTA, ANTIQUE, Aug. 8 -- The provincial hospital of Antique is looking for a dumpsite for its solid wastes as the current one is nearly full.
Antique Provincial Administrator Neri Duremdes said that Dr. Samuel Ton-ogan of the Angel Salazar Memorial General Hospital (Antique provincial hospital) has informed them of the present condition of the dumpsite within the hospital compound.
Ton-ogan said on Tuesday that he has raised the problem since then and expects there will be a solution very soon.
For their short-term solution , they are looking into the possibility of having a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) with the Municipal Government of San Jose de Buenavista so they can be allowed to temporarily dump the hospital waste materials in their dumpsite in Pantao village or that they have to dig deeper and widen the provincial hospital dumpsite, he said.
As for the long term solution, the provincial government will be looking for an area to buy and be converted into an open pit dumpsite.
Duremdes said there is a land being offered for sale to the provincial government. However, they found out it had no title so they again have to look for other properties to buy.
Duremdes, however, can not give the exact number of tons per day of waste materials being generated in the hospital. (PNA)
