LGU Tarangnan mets LGU Catbalogan City
With the recent outbreak Paralytic Shellfish Poising “Red Tide”, the Local Government Unit of the Municipality of Tarangan headed by its Municipal Mayor Danny Tan along with its Councilors met with City Mayor Stephany Uy-Tan to discuss on how to manage the said outbreak.
The meeting was assisted by City Planning and Development Coordinator Engr. Arnaldo Aroza, OIC City Engineer and City General Services Officer Engr. Rico Macabare
and was later on followed by Catbalogan Vice Mayor Art Sherwin Gabon.
Agreements made during the meeting was the plan for the transfer of the City Dumpsite far from the creek to address the issue. Moreover, within the existing dumpsite, a filtration mechanism is to be established.
The dumpsite of Catbalogan City at Barangay New Mahayag has long been pointed as a contributory to red tide outbreaks but no conclusive and direct link has ever been established either by any authorities or agencies.
