The row on what's finally to be done on the controversial drainage problem in the city seems to find the ultimate move to protect the environment, both inland and the seawaters off Tagbilaran City Port, declared "tourist port in the country."
Nestor Canda, newly designated CENRO of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) categorically declared that the agency will not clear the opening of the exit fall of the new drainage system if the sewerage connections of some 30 establishments along Carlos P. Garcia Avenue will not be disconnected.
The statement of Canda came in the wake of contrasting statements issued by involved agencies regarding the much delayed drainage project recently completed by Hanjin Construction.
He said that per environmental policies, the multi-million project along the city's main street was designed only for drainage, and not for sewerage, thus, it follows that no clearance can be issued if the outfall includes sewerage disposal from establishments in the city.
