JAKARTA - The Department of Environment and Hygiene (DLHK) of the Sidoarjo Regency Government, East Java guarantees that all waste from the birthday activities of Nahdlatul Ulama (NU) is maximally today.

Kepala Dinas LHK Kabupaten Sidoarjo Bahrul Amig saat dikonfirmasi mengatakan, saat ini sampah yang ada di sejumlah ruas jalan utama Sidoarjo sudah selesai diangkut.

"There were about 500 tons of garbage during the implementation of the activity," said Bahrul Amig, Wednesday, February 8, quoted from Antara.

The garbage was not immediately transported and taken to the final disposal site. His party sorted it out as an effort to reduce the waste sent to the final disposal site.

"Dispute cleaning is carried out continuously from February 6 to today," he said.

He said the cleaning of the garbage was carried out for 24 hours which was divided into three shifts and the final disposal site was also open for 24 hours to accommodate garbage.

"So far, the garbage on the main road has been handled. There is only some garbage in the mosques and also the offices used to accommodate NU participants on the birthday," he said.

He admitted that there were no obstacles related to cleaning up the garbage. The waste is not only produced by participants, because there are also many impromptu traders who also produce quite a lot of garbage.

"We are targeting that today all the garbage has been transported," he said.

His party also continues to be committed so that the waste produced is not moved but managed.

"Junk is not only collected, transported and then buried," he said.
