                    [Title] => Binay: Trash barges not leaking
                    [Summary] => The Metropolitan Manila Development Authority denied  reports yesterday about leakage of leachate into the waters of Semirara Island from a barge full of garbage.


MMDA chairman Jejomar Binay said the alleged spillage was actually just water displacement normal in any type of vessel. Two barges of R-II DMCI arrived and docked near the shore of the island of Semirara, Antique yesterday from Pier 18 in Manila.


MMDA assistant general manager for operations Rogelio Uranza reported that an estimated 200 residents of Antique were present during the arrival and stood watch.

He issued the statement in response to concerns raised by some Metro mayors on the possibility of tapping the use of open dumpsites to replace the San Mateo sanitary landfill.


Binay clarified that option will no longer be exercised as the government has already found an alternative site for Metro Manila’s garbage.
