00:00A year ago, a pig farm in San Narciso, Zambales was shut down, but it continued to operate.
00:09The facility is smelly and has defects, so we brought to you, Kapuso Action Man.
00:16A year ago, a pig farm in San Narciso, Zambales was shut down, but it continued to operate.
00:30The facility is smelly and has defects, so we brought to you, Kapuso Action Man.
00:37Because of the violation of the Philippine Clean Water Act and the Environmental Impact Statement System Law,
00:44which has been complained by the residents of the area for several years.
00:47We have been tolerating that smell for five years.
00:51I don't want it to be a perversion to us.
00:54Three barangays are affected by this and we are all suffering from the smell.
01:00According to the inspection of the AMB, they suggested to the Mayor that it's better to close the pig farm.
01:10Some closure orders were issued and a gate of the pig farm was closed last October.
01:16But the affected residents objected.
01:18The Mayor did not give them a permit to operate, but they continued to operate.
01:24He was given 90 days to remove all the pigs, but he did not risk it.
01:31Because of the continued operation of the pig farm, the Outpost built a barangay near the pig farm to prevent the entry of pigs.
01:38We approached the AMB again and the AMB advised them to find a way to continue to close it.
01:55Your heart is broken, Action Man, in the Local Government of San Narciso, Zambales.
01:59They saw that the 500 declared in his permit in the DNR exceeded 1,651 to be exact.
02:10So that's what happened and foul orders were issued in the area.
02:17We issued another closure for this year, 2024, so that they cannot operate.
02:24They have reached an agreement with the Environmental Management Bureau of the DNR
02:28because the pig farm did not comply with the closure order.
02:32We are just waiting for the decision from the higher level.
02:36We have already sent our recommendation through the DILG and we are also waiting at the Regional Office of the EMB.
02:45We went to the pig farm to get their permission.
02:47Ma'am, can we interview you? Is the owner there?
02:53Sir, I just received a comment.
02:57The Local Government of San Narciso and EMB inspected the pig farm again and ordered the closure of the pig farm.
03:06From more than 1,600 pigs, the owner moved the 800 pigs until all the pigs in the area were sold.
03:17Mission accomplished, Kapuso.
