SMC ramps up Tullahan River cleanup efforts, removes 168,000 MT of silt and trash to date
Excerpt
San Miguel Corporation is on track to more than double its daily dredging of silt and trash for its P1-billion Tullahan-Tinajeros river system cleanup project from 600 metric tons per day to 1,500 metric tons per day for the 11.5-km stretch it is working on. This covers the initial sections 1 to 3 of the project from the mouth of the Manila Bay in Navotas City to Tinajeros Bridge, and sections 4 to 5 from Tinajeros Bridge to Potrero in Malabon and Valenzuela cities. SMC’s five-year project covers the entire 27-km length of the Tullahan-Tinajeros river system.
