A total of 10,692 kilos of trash were hauled from the Panay River, the 152kilometer river system of Capiz province. Majority of the trash collected by volunteers were plastic. Earlier findings by DENR Capiz indicated that uncontrolled disposal of garbage along the riverbank, particularly in Roxas City, led to the growth of high coliform bacteria.
