| local.seafdecaqd.extract | Manila Bay is in the news again. It is being provided with a patch of white sand along 500 meters of the baywalk, actually not sand but crushed dolomite boulders, a variant of limestone, that is coming all the way from Cebu, according to the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR). The project has a budget of P389 million. Senate President Vicente Sotto expressed concern that the white sand or crushed boulder would just wash out to sea after some time. Sen. Sherwin Gatchalian cited a geologist’s concern about this possibility of storms and high tides washing away the artificial sand. DENR Undersecretary Benny Antiporda assured there are engineering interventions prepared by the department to prevent this. | en |
