S u s t a i n a b l e D e v e l o p m e n t A s p e c t s Pollution and Waste Management 033 Sanitation and domestic sewerage Description This indicator reports the proportion of the population with access to sanitation and sewerage systems. Rationale The lack of sanitation facilities can affect human well-being and have negative impacts on the quality of the environment especially when disposed untreated to the coastal and marine environment. Moreover, data on access to sanitation also monitors progress in meeting one of the Millennium Development Goals (MDG) targets for environmental sustainability. Data Requirements • Population with access to improved sanitation • Households connected to septic tanks • Volume of septage collected/treated • Population served by public sewerage system (collection) • Location of sewage treatment plants and discharge pipes • Level of treatment and volume of sewage treated • Volume of domestic wastewater generated, treated, recycled or reused Results The proportion of households with access to sanitation increased from 52 percent in 1990 to 87 percent in 2007 (OPPDC, 2008; Figure 24). The 2007 data was based from the average of 21 priority municipalities for poverty diagnosis in the province. It is important to note that 6 coastal municipalities were among the top 10 with the highest proportion of households without access to sanitary toilet facilities. No information was gathered, however, with respect to the proportion of households connected to septic tanks and there is no existing sewerage system in the province. The 2008 Annual Investment Plan (AIP) for Batangas City includes allocation for the construction of a public wastewater treatment facility. 104 State of the Coasts of Batangas Province
S U S T A I N A B L E D E V E L O P M E N T A S P E C T S Figure 24. Proportion of households with access to sanitation. Implications and Recommendations Pollution and Waste Management Sanitation and domestic sewerage The province has significantly progressed in increasing the proportion of households with access to sanitation. However, access to sanitation is only the first step. The Provincial Government can lead the way in assisting the municipalities with the planning and provision of appropriate sewage collection, treatment and disposal facilities and services for their citizens.
