BENGUET,\u00a0January 7, 2022\u00a0\u2013<\/strong>\u00a0The Fertilizer and Pesticide Authority (FPA) Region CAR witnessed the hauling of 6.5tons of empty pesticide containers on January 7, 2022, at Caponga, Tublay, Benguet. The hauling was spearheaded by the PLGU of Benguet and Croplife Philippines, Inc (CLP, Inc,).<\/span><\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

The containers were collected from the farmers of Benguet, Bauko, Mt. Province, and Tinoc, Ifugao through the clean-up drives and regular product stewardships conducted from 2019 to 2021 of various agrochemical companies, in cooperation with dealers, distributors, and local government units of Benguet.<\/span><\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

The empty pesticide containers (EPCs) are considered hazardous wastes as indicated in R.A. 6969, with the waste code and description as containers previously containing toxic chemical substances (J201). It was also stipulated in the FPA\u2019s green book or Pesticide Regulatory Implementing Rules and Regulations that the management of the empty pesticide containers is a shared responsibility by all stakeholders, following the rules of the DENR-EMB.<\/span><\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

Responsible stakeholders in the proper disposal of empty pesticide containers pertain most especially the end-users who are the farmers being the generator of the EPC wastes. In the case of Benguet province, the PLGU applied as the waste generator catering to the farmers entire the province. With the aid of the CLP, Inc., Benguet PLGU was granted by DENR-EMB the Hazardous Waste Generator license.<\/span><\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

(CLP, Inc.), and Crop Protection Association of the Philippines (CPAP).<\/span><\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

This event is the third hauling initiated by PLGU of Benguet and CLP, Inc. The first and second haulings were made in 2018 and 2019 respectively.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
