This paper presents the AMS (Accelerator Mass Spectrometry) +.C date of charcoal fragment from the Irosin ignimbrite that is distributed in the province of Sorsogon. The obtained +.C age is -/,3-*ῌ,/* BP (NUTA,ῌ+*13/), and tentatively calibrated to the calendar year of .+,-,3ῌ+03 cal BP.

Howev- er, it has been shown at Kikai and Aira calderas in Japan that post-volcanism has started +ῌ- kyr after the ignimbrite eruption (Okuno, ,**,; Okuno and Naka- mura, ,**-; Okuno et al., +331). These studies at Kikai and Aira calderas underscore the importance in deter- mining the age of the first activity in a post-caldera stage. The new +.C date provides additional data in constraining the age of post-caldera volcanoes in the BVC. Further, the study on widespread ash-fall depos- its associated with Irosin ignimbrite will be useful for establishing the chronological framework of the vol- canism in Luzon, and probably throughout the Philip- pines.

  • Solid Waste Management
    SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT In built-up areas, the most pressing environmental concern is the increasing volume of solid waste being generated by the growing number of household and commercial establishments. The per capita waste generation is rising as more Irosinians adopt a consumerist lifestyle and prefer disposable or single-use products and non-biodegradable packaging materials. A waste characterization study in 2002 showed that about 86% by weight of solid waste from households is organic materials, approximately 10% is recyclable and only 4% is residual waste. The study showed that 96% of solid waste from households is recoverable resource and only a small fraction is fit for final disposal. The LGU of Irosin has over the years been implementing programs for solid waste management and urban area beautification. In urban centers, a team of street sweepers is tasked with the cleaning, greening and beautification of the Central Business District, municipal streets, urban recreational spaces, civil cemetery and the public market. Collection and transport of solid waste are provided in the urban barangays and three rural barangays by a fleet of LGU garbage trucks. A final disposal facility is maintained at a 3-hectare site in Barangay Patag Ecological Park. In terms of practice of disposal by households in 2013, 29.8% are collected by municipal and barangay LGUs, 9.1% are by storage, 51.4% by composting, 6% is by open dumping and 3.5% is by open burning. Communication Facilities Irosin has one FM Radio Station the Radyo Natin-FM Station a satellite fed station of the Manila Broadcasting Corporation.
