P80-M dumpsite project ready to commence

Tuesday, July 3, 2012

THE Baguio City Government is set to start soon the P80-million Irisan dumpsite retaining wall rehabilitation funded by the Office of the President (OP), according to City Mayor Mauricio Domogan.

According to Domogan, the project will assure the safety of the immediate community and also a gigantic step towards converting the former garbage facility into an eco-tourism park.

It may be recalled a wall of the five-hectare dumpsite breached last August 27, 2011 during Typhoon Mina and the cascading garbage killed six residents of the area.

The mayor said the approval of the Department of Public Works and Highways is now the only requirement we are waiting so that we can immediately start this important project.

Apart from the dumpsite retaining wall, there are many other infrastructure projects worth several millions of pesos undergoing completion. (Aure Galacgac/PNA)
