Four solar-powered closed-circuit television (CCTV) cameras were installed by personnel of the Bacolod City Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Office and the Department of Public Services in strategic areas of the Central Market Monday.
These areas include Gonzaga-Bonifacio, Gonzaga-Gatuslao, Gatuslao-Luzuriaga, and Luzuriaga Bonifacio, a press release from the city said.
Engr. Joel Vergara, DPS assistant department head, said they installed the CCTV cameras, donated by the IPM Construction and Development Corporation, to monitor and prevent the indiscriminate dumping of market waste.
Vergara said that through the CCTV cameras, they could also check if there are uncollected garbage around the market and notify the IPM-CDC so that these can immediately be hauled and disposed of properly. ||
