Metro Manila, Philippines — The government has cautioned people in Cavite against consuming fish produce based on water quality in relation to a sunken oil tanker.
The water testing results were in light of the oil spill from MTKR Terranova that capsized and sank in waters off Limay, Bataan on July 25. The tanker carried 1.4 million liters of industrial fuel.
“In the province of Cavite, fish and shellfish samples collected are still not safe for human consumption based on sensory evaluation,” the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR) said in a bulletin on Tuesday, Aug. 13.
