local.seafdecaqd.extractMore than 30 mayors from different coastal towns in Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao are opposing a proposal from the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR) to use the coast of the mainland as reference point in the delineation of municipal waters instead of the farthest offshore island of a town. The resolution opposing the draft guidelines was passed by 32 mayors from different parts of the country in an online forum organized by different civil society groups under the Pangingisda Natin Gawing Tama (PaNaGaT) network. The resolution was submitted to the National Fisheries and Aquatic Resources Management Council (NFARMC) which is deliberating the proposed rules of delineation of the municipal waters.en
