TANGERANG SOUTH - The Tangerang Selatan City Environmental Service (DLH), Banten, stated that the handling of the waste pile in front of the Cimanggis Market, Ciputat, had been carried out by transporting it gradually to the Final Disposal Site (TPA).
The Secretary of the Tangsel City DLH, Hadi Widodo, said that waste transportation had started since Tuesday evening, December 16, by deploying a number of equipment to accelerate the cleaning process.
"Yes, it started last night," said Hadi when met in Tangerang, Wednesday, December 17.
Several small-sized heavy equipment units were deployed to lift the garbage pile and move it to the transport truck fleet.
Transportation is also carried out by combing the area around the location, including garbage that is scattered on the sidewalk and the median of the road divider.
"The garbage is being picked up gradually," said Hadi.
In addition to heavy equipment and transport trucks, DLH also alerted fire trucks around the location of the former waste pile. The vehicles are used to spray and sterilize water to reduce the unpleasant smell.
In the area near the Ciputat Market flyover, a number of sanitation officers were also alerted to transport the garbage, which was reported to have been almost a week without being picked up.
"One small-sized excavator unit has also been alerted to transport the pile of garbage covered with plastic tarps," he said.
Previously, the issue of waste accumulation in South Tangerang City had been in the public spotlight. This condition occurred because transportation activities were disrupted along with the land arrangement process at the Cipeucang landfill, Serpong.
