BFAR appeals SC ruling on delimitation of municipal waters
Excerpt
The Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR) has asked the Supreme Court (SC) to reverse its decision allowing commercial fishing within the country’s 15-kilometer municipal waters reserved for small-scale fishers. “This decisive action underscores the agency’s unwavering commitment to utilizing all available legal remedies to secure a fair and just resolution of the case,” BFAR said in a statement, explaining its move to file a motion for reconsideration of the SC’s ruling.
