Filling Waste From Jakarta To Making Residents Real, One Of The Illegal TPS In Bekasi Regency Was Sealed By Satpol PP

BEKASI - The illegal garbage disposal site (TPS) in Kramat Blencong Village, Segaramakmur Village, Tarumajaya District, was sealed by Bekasi Regency Satpol PP officers, Saturday, October 8.

The illegal TPS was temporarily closed after the Satpol PP received reports from residents around the garbage disposal site.

"Initially from reports from local residents who complained about the existence of the garbage disposal site," said Acting Head of Trantib Satpol PP Bekasi Regency, Ganda Sasmita, as quoted by Antara.

The resident's report was then forwarded from the village government to the sub-district to the local government. The Bekasi Regency Satpol PP immediately responded by sealing or temporarily closing it.

The Bekasi Regency Satpol PP then made a summons to the manager after sealing it. The manager will be questioned which will be included in the minutes of examination.

The management was also asked to make a written statement to immediately clear the area from the remaining garbage by transporting garbage to the Bantargebang Integrated Waste Disposal Site (TPST), Bekasi City.

"The garbage from this illegal TPS is trash that is rejected by the government's TPA. Because the waste comes from Jakarta, we ask that it be immediately transported to the Bantargebang TPST," said Ganda.

He also said that the closure of the illegal TPS was a stage of enforcing Regional Regulation Number 4 of 2012 concerning Public Order.

"We have closed the illegal trash can. The closing stage has been carried out based on applicable regulations," he said, in Cikarang, Saturday.

The closure of the illegal TPS was carried out by joint officers from the Bekasi Regency Satpol PP assisted by elements of the TNI/Polri, UPTD of the Region 1 Environmental Service, Tarumajaya District, as well as local village and sub-district government officials.
