Head of Waste Division of the Environment Agency H Adi Noryanto said that Kotabaru has three TPS3R, namely Tegalrejo, Sungai Taib, and Sidomulyo.
"Tegalrejo and Sidomulyo took part in the competition. Alhamdulillah TPS3R Tegalrejo won the award," he said.
According to Adi, what caused them to win the award was that waste management was carried out independently from domestic waste or public waste to the final disposal, there is almost no government intervention.
"Rejo Lestari serves approximately 500 households, while the garbage they collect is 1 to 1.5 tons per day," he expounded.
Currently, said Adi, there is the assistance of IDR600 million from the Ministry that is allocated for physical building and other infrastructure.
While the role of the local government is in the form of supervision. "Next year we will allocate IDR100 million for them and we will ask them what they need with the fund and we will buy them," he said.
