The city government of Manila has asked the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR) to look into the fish kill in Manila Bay along the Baseco seawall in Tondo that groups blamed on the dolomite sand project, an official said yesterday. City hall information officer Julius Leonen said they have referred the matter to BFAR national director Eduardo Gongona for appropriate action and investigation. The BFAR told the city government that the fish spotted along the Baseco seawall Wednesday died due to low levels of oxygen in the polluted waters, Leonen added.
