Engineer Elizer
Casidsid of the Municipal Engineering Office will lead the Task Force formed to
focus on issues related to sewer system and drainage in Boracay next month.
Casidsid was
appointed by Malay Mayor John Yap, alongside Engr. Ben Mañosca – COO of BIWC – to address the
problems with those who are not connected in the sewerage system, which is the
cited cause of waste water overflows on roads and low lying areas in the
island.
Mañosca called up a meeting for the members
of the task force which includes LGU-Malay’s department heads together with the
DOT and DENR.
Based on
Municipal Ordinance No. 297 series of 2011, the group will remind and oblige establishments
and households to have their sewer lines connected.
Casidsid added,
that there will be a process, but those who are not connected during the
inspection will be immediately given a Notice of Violation and will be required
to attend a hearing for an explanation.
Those who will
fail to do so will be penalized and a possible endorsement to the Mayor for the
cancelation or revocation of Business Permit based on the ordinance.
The implementation
will last for three months starting on July 10, 2013.
