        "summary": "The Buleleng Regency government has introduced an odd-even waste collection system to alleviate the overburdened TPA Bengkala landfill, transporting organic waste on odd dates and inorganic on even dates to encourage household sorting. Deputy Regent Gede Supriatna emphasised that success depends on public participation, as the landfill currently handles only 12 percent of the 400 cubic metres of daily waste, mostly from urban areas. Additionally, the regency is shifting from open dumping to a controlled landfill method in compliance with central government directives to mitigate environmental impacts.",
        "content": "<p>The Buleleng Regency Government (Pemkab) has begun implementing a new\nwaste transportation pattern based on type to reduce the burden on the\nfinal disposal site (TPA) Bengkala, which is currently over\ncapacity.<\/p>\n<p>The applied scheme is quite simple: organic waste is transported on\nodd dates, while inorganic waste on even dates. This policy is expected\nto encourage the public to be more disciplined in sorting waste from\ntheir homes.<\/p>\n<p>Buleleng Deputy Regent Gede Supriatna stressed that the success of\nthis regulation heavily depends on community participation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe await the cooperation of the public. Without it, the waste\nproblem will not be resolved,\u201d Supriatna said on Wednesday\n(22\/4\/2026).<\/p>\n<p>The TPA Bengkala itself covers an area of about 7.8 hectares and is\ncurrently under heavy pressure due to a surge in daily waste volume. Of\naround 400 cubic metres of waste entering each day, only about 12\npercent can be managed.<\/p>\n<p>According to Supriatna, this condition is inseparable from the\nminimal sorting of waste at the household level. If this pattern\ncontinues, waste accumulation at the TPA is inevitable.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf it is not sorted from the source, the waste will continue to pile\nup and worsen the TPA\u2019s condition,\u201d he asserted.<\/p>\n<p>He also revealed that most of the waste entering TPA Bengkala comes\nfrom urban areas. Meanwhile, several villages are said to already have\nprocessing facilities such as TPS3R.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, Pemkab Buleleng is also beginning to change the\nwaste management system at TPA Bengkala. The open dumping method\npreviously used is no longer permitted by the central government.<\/p>\n<p>Instead, management is directed towards using a controlled landfill\nsystem or controlled landfilling to minimise environmental impacts.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNow we are switching to controlled landfill. This is part of system\nimprovements, but the key remains in sorting from home,\u201d he\nconcluded.<\/p>",
