Abstract

The study examines the environmental impact of a former landfill along the Banica River in Dumaguete, focusing on heavy metal pollution, particularly lead contamination, and pH levels. The research uses an experimental approach to assess water samples and compare them to 1994 records. Results show neutral pH levels and lead levels below the permissible limit. Remediation approaches include trash segregation, building barriers, and microbial remediation. Longitudinal monitoring is recommended for continuous assessment and response to environmental challenges
