LLDA cites 17 more bay polluters: Violators include PICC, hotels, condominiums, restaurants and a popular marine attraction
Excerpt
A total of 17 more establishments in the cities of Manila and Pasay, including the Philippine International Convention Center (PICC) and several hotels, have been cited by the Laguna Lake Development Authority (LLDA) for polluting Manila Bay. On Friday, cease-and-desist orders were issued against Makchang Korean Restaurant, the Networld Hotel, and Legend Seafood Restaurant for discharging pollutive wastewater into the bay waters. The three establishments joined eight others that were slapped earlier with similar orders. As a result, their water sources and wastewater-discharging facilities were shut down by LLDA personnel until they could show proof of compliance with the law.
