Pampanga still positive, Bataan cleared for red tide
Excerpt
The Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR) released Shellfish Bulletin No. 03, stating that the coastal waters of Pampanga are still positive for red tide toxins while the Bataan has already tested negative. Red tide toxins have plagued the province of Pampanga for more than two months now and have been noted by the BFAR as still having paralytic shellfish poison beyond regulatory limit. The bulletin stated that based on their latest laboratory results, all types of shellfish and Acetes or alamang that were gathered from the province’s waters are still not safe for human consumption due to paralytic shellfish poison.
