Tarlac landfill redevelopment seen creating 30,000 jobs
The Bases Conversion and Development Authority (BCDA) has gained the support of Tarlac local government units (LGUs) to transform the Kalangitan sanitary landfill into an industrial zone as part of the New Clark City (NCC) development.
BCDA President and CEO Joshua Bingcang discussed the upcoming expiration of the Metro Clark Waste Management Corp.'s (MCWMC) contract for the landfill with Tarlac officials.
The 100-hectare landfill area is planned to be rezoned within the New Clark City Master Development Plan, with an estimated generation of 30,000 jobs from its industrial redevelopment.
The contract with MCWMC for the landfill is set to expire on October 9, 2024, and will not be extended.
The BCDA stated that the sanitary landfill is inconsistent with the vision of transforming NCC into a premier tourism destination.
