Transcript
00:00The local government of Cavite is studying the class action lawsuit
00:04following the permission of the OSPIL from MTKR Terranova
00:08that hit five youths.
00:11Watch Jun Veneracion.
00:17From the damaged MV Mirola 1 in Mariveles, Bataan,
00:21the Coast Guard members are collecting oil.
00:25What they got will be taken to the Waste Disposal Facility.
00:29For now, the ship is getting ready to sail
00:32with 5,500 liters of diesel
00:35that was loaded with the operational fuel of the wrecked MTKR Jason Bradley.
00:41The Coast Guard also added an oil spill boom to the wreckage of the ship.
00:45An improvised oil spill boom was made in Niog
00:48and was sent to the barangay residents
00:50who placed it in the mouth of the river.
00:53The oil spill will be removed from the ship
00:57to prevent it from being taken to the side.
01:01But the oil tanker boom
01:03is causing problems to the residents.
01:06At night, it's hard for people to sleep here.
01:09The smell is so strong.
01:12When the water level rises, it gets worse for us
01:15because the water level rises and the diesel gets damaged.
01:18They noticed the large number of dead fish.
01:21But the effect on their livelihood is the worst.
01:24Because of the oil spill boom,
01:26all of our crops went down.
01:29We didn't know what to do.
01:31We didn't have anything to buy.
01:33But according to the PCG,
01:35the 1.4 million liters of industrial fuel
01:39loaded with MTKR Terra Nova
01:42that sank in the town of Limay
01:44is still the most serious problem.
01:45It's possible that it will take two more weeks
01:47before the siphoning operations start.
01:49They need to replace the steel canvas
01:51that was covered by the ship's valves.
01:54The metal capping is done on purpose
01:56that takes a week.
01:58It also takes a long time to install.
02:01After that, the oil spill can only start in the afternoon.
02:05The Bataan Provincial Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Office
02:09is saying that the operation is slowing down.
02:12I would like it to be a little faster.
02:14You know, as time, as day goes by,
02:17the effects of it not just on the environment
02:20is also increasing,
02:22plus the effects of it on our constituents
02:25or our residents here in Bataan.
02:27We're not rushing.
02:29That's better.
02:31Number one item, why?
02:33Because we have contained the oil leak
02:35that is flowing.
02:37This is one liter per hour.
02:40And at the same time,
02:42if we rush with this operation,
02:45the whole Metro Manila,
02:48perhaps part of the whole Region 4A
02:52and Region 3 will be affected.
02:54In Bulacan,
02:56the BIFAR carried out a sensor evaluation
02:58in the sea.
02:59Next, the oil spill was very heavy.
03:02They were caught by a fish
03:04and in a casino.
03:05And when the problem was not observed,
03:08it was cooked and fed by BIFAR.
03:11But in Cavite,
03:13they noticed something
03:14in those who were caught from the sea.
03:16If you go to us now,
03:18all of the fish caught,
03:20the mackerels, the crabs,
03:23are all black.
03:25And the fish caught
03:27smells like gasoline.
03:3025,000 families of fishermen
03:32were affected,
03:33according to Governor Emulia.
03:35They were given food assistance
03:37to the affected
03:38and may also receive cash assistance.
03:41There is an employee
03:44who owns a ship.
03:45I don't know his name.
03:47Now, our lawyers are studying
03:51a class action lawsuit.
03:53Even if they don't intend it,
03:55they call it negligence.
03:57Their negligence is that
03:59the waves are high,
04:01the waves are high,
04:03they still released their ship.
04:08It should not happen.
04:12For now,
04:13in the last satellite image
04:14of the Philippine Space Agency,
04:16the oil spill area was smaller
04:18in one day
04:19compared to the satellite image
04:21of the week.
