The Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) today clarified that it is not the Dolomite Beach itself but the ongoing drainage systems project in the area which caused flooding in some of the streets in Manila last Friday. During the inspection at the Juan Luna Elementary School in Manila for the Brigada Eskwela, MMDA Acting General Manager Baltazar Melgar said that it is not the beach but the unfinished pumping stations and a pipeline near the area which caused the flood.
