An Act Regulating the Use of Treatment Technology for Municipal and Hazardous Wastes, Repealing for the Purpose Section 20 of Republic Act No. 8749, Entitled 'the Philippine Clean Air Act of 1999'
The Waste Treatment Technology Act would let the Philippines build and run modern waste‑treatment and waste‑to‑energy plants, but only for waste that cannot be reduced, recycled or composted. It requires real‑time emissions monitoring, sets a minimum temperature for thermal units, gives tax breaks and loan priority to investors, and makes local governments and several national agencies responsible for permits, oversight and reporting.
