Bais City Mayor Luigi Marcel Goñi met representatives of URC on Wednesday, Oct. 29, to discuss measures to address the leak discovered on Oct. 24.
The city government requested URC to collect dead fish and other aquaculture affected in the North Bais Bay.
The Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR)-7 (Central Visayas) advised the public to refrain from fishing, collecting, and gathering aquatic organisms in affected areas for they may contain harmful pathogens, chemicals, and pollutants that pose risks to human health.
