Pasay places 3rd in cleanup of Manila Bay
Excerpt
The City of Pasay was ranked third among compliant local government units in Metro Manila in implementing the Manila Bay Clean-Up Rehabilitation and Preservation Program. The recognition came from the Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) on Tuesday. The agency monitors LGUs regarding a Supreme Court ruling mandating them to strictly monitor compliance of their constituents with environmental laws aimed to prevent sewage water and industrial and human wastes from polluting rivers, esteros, and other waterways that form part of the tributary systems of the Manila Bay.
