wastes from human contact to
promote health. Wastes generated
by human beings could be excreta,
urine, wastewater, solid wastes,

chemicals, which will be
detrimental to human health
if left uncontrolled.

people in acquiring many
diseases in the barangay, and it
also helps in maintaining the
surrounding by developing a pit-
emptying in disposing wastes

communal sanitation facilities are
within its functionality and to
know if there are any clogged
wastes that can cause the
dysfunctionality of the sewage
system. To also be able to
maintain and reduce disease
burden as well as the public
health costs for better sanitation.
