Department
of Tourism (DOT) Boracay also try to find out the status of Flood Control
Project in the island.
According
to DOT Boracay Officer in Charge Tim Ticar, he went into the Tourism
Infrastructure Enterprise and Zoning Authority-Regulatory Office (TIEZA-RO)
yesterday but said nothing can be spoken about his inquiry.
“Now,
that PAGASA formally declared “Rainy Season,” it is necessary to know if what the
preparations in the island especially concerning floods.” He said.
Ticar
added that, “The previous disaster illustrates that the level of preparedness
and ability to save lives in the wake of such events is not as high as was
thought.”
Meanwhile,
this station has also tried to re-interview ITP Construction Project Architect
Victor Turingan but he cannot be contacted on his cell phone.
Furthermore,
it was noted that excavation of the road going to the Sewerage Treatment Plant
(STP) of the Boracay Island Water Company (BIWC) has been started for pipe
laying.
This
is still a part of Tourism Infrastructure and Enterprise Zone Authority
(TIEZA)’s Flood Control Project.
The
Flood Control Project began last year to finally put a stop on the island’s
flooding problems.
