Fight vs flood: Marikina River dredging in full swing
Excerpt
The dredging operations in Marikina River are now in full swing in an effort to increase its capacity for rainwater, thus mitigating floods in nearby areas. About 50,000 cubic meters of soil, sand, and silt is expected to be dredged from the river, Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) Secretary Mark Villar said. The dredging began on February 17 and is expected to continue throughout the summer season.
