Some 35 environmental enforcers will be mobilized here next week - days before the scheduled island reopening on Oct. 26. Environment secretary Roy Cimatu said the environmental enforcers - most of them Boracay residents - are tasked to ensure island's environmental sustainability. "Part of their duty is to conduct inspection of the sewage treatment plants (STPs) of the 21 hotels initially accredited by the inter-agency task force," Cimatu said.
