It was decided
that establishments with illegal drainage connections will be called on for next
week.
During a conference
by the Boracay Environmental Task Force, pictures of the operations by the
Municipal Engineering and Sanitation where shown.
A number of them
are pictures of pipe lines discharging waste water into the drainage, which is
prohibited based on the Clean Water Act.
According to the
inspectors, they have discovered that some were kitchen wastes from resorts.
At the moment,
the Task Force is preparing for their plan of sending out invitations to the
violators to hear their side.
Once the illegal
connections are proven to be deliberate move, a violation ticket will be issued
and may lead to revocation of business permit.
Meanwhile, the
mentioned illegal pipe lines were temporarily covered while the Task Force’s
operation continues.
