While the DENR has already given Manila Mayor Lito Atienza the green light to proceed with the clean-up and rehabilitation project, DENR Secretary Elisea Gozun stressed that it is equally important to institute measures that will ensure the flow of water in the two-hectare area within the existing seven-hectare disposal site.
