[Title] => License of barge that leaked sulphuric acid revoked
[Summary] => Calling the weekend leakage of sulphuric acid into the sea as "an environmental tragedy," Environment Secretary Angelo Reyes yesterday revoked the license of the 150-ton Billy Star, the barge that sank off Batangas Bay last Saturday.
At the same time, Reyes ordered the Department of Environment and Natural Resources’ (DENR) Environmental Management Bureau (EMB) and Protected Areas and Wildlife Bureau (PAWB) to determine the extent of the damage wrought by the vessel, which transports hazardous wastes.

[Title] => Barge loaded with sulfuric acid sinks
[Summary] => BATANGAS CITY — A barge loaded with about 1,270 metric tons of sulfuric acid sank while docked in a shipyard in Bauan town Saturday, the Coast Guard said.
Commander Avelino Fortuna of the Batangas Coast Guard said the bottom hull of the Billy Star barge owned by Grand Asian Shipping Inc. gave way, causing the barge to sink in the Keppel drydock in Barangay San Miguel at about 12:40 a.m.
He said the barge had been docked there for nearly two weeks and was scheduled for repair because its "bullet tank," which contained the sulfuric acid, had leaked.
