The partnership between the Department of Science and Technology's Local Grant In Aid Program, Cagayan de Oro's Local Government Unit, and the Bureau of Jail Management and Penology (BJMP) is implementing a project to address wastewater-related issues caused by improper wastewater disposal at the Cagayan de Oro City Jail.
 
The project aims to provide a Vertical Helophyte Filter System (VHFS) developed by DOST XI, which complies with the National Water Quality Guidelines and Effluent Standards (DAO 2016-06), and reduce environmental pollution.
The project aligns with Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) Number 6: Clean Water and Sanitation.
