The Manila Department of Public Services (MDPS) called the attention of authorities regarding an oil spill in Manila Bay last Saturday. Kenneth Amurao, MDPS chief, reported to Manila Mayor Isko Moreno Domagoso over the weekend the findings of Team Mandaragat, the unit tasked to clean the bay. In the report, Amurao said while they were cleaning the bay area last Saturday, 24 April, they observed the presence of oil in the water and noticed a yellow stain on the seawall near the Manila Yacht Club.
