Waste generation, collection and disposal are major problems in the rapidly growing Batangas Bay Region, Philippines. To develop a framework by which waste management and disposal can be effectively carried out, a waste management plan was created. The plan provides a cross-sector and cross-media approach to waste management, utilizing the combined resources and capabilities of the public and private sectors.

This Plan contains strategic actions and guidelines for both short- and long-term management of the coastal resources in Xiamen including the prevention and management of land-based pollution sources and its impact. The goal is to improve marine environmental quality and maintain socioeconomic growth in a sustainable manner.
