DENR put fence along Bay seawall
Excerpt
Three days from now, the Manila Baywalk will be closed for any swimming activity, at least for the next six months. This is because the Department of Environment and Natural Resources plans to put up a perimeter fence along the beachfront to prevent people from swimming in the polluted waters while rehabilitation is ongoing. “We are about to close the swimming area. We did not anticipate the influx of people. We are closing the beachfront,” said DENR Secretary Roy Cimatu, who led the inspection of the bay and ordered to block the shoreline from the United States Embassy up to the Manila Yacht Club with orange plastic barriers, which will be replaced by a four-foot fence.
