The Metropolitan Manila Development Authority said it will use traffic cameras under an expanded no-contact apprehension policy (NCAP) to catch litterbugs and issue environmental fines ranging from ₱500 to ₱2,000 depending on the violation.
MMDA General Manager Nicolas Torre III said CCTV footage will be reviewed to identify offenders, who may face legal action if they fail to pay penalties.
The agency noted that the expanded NCAP is still under review and will be rolled out after a public demonstration, following a partial lifting of the policy by the Supreme Court in 2025, with some restrictions still in place.
The MMDA also launched its “Yes to Ayos” campaign in Malabon to promote cleaner and more disciplined communities through barangay-level initiatives.
