CALAPAN CITY, Oriental Mindoro: Contrary to the statement by Gov. Humerlito Dolor on his social media page on Friday that all water activities in the coastal areas of Pola town are allowed, Pola Mayor Jennifer 'Ina Alegre' Cruz said that they were banned.In a telephone interview on Saturday, Cruz told The Manila Times that she concurred with the order of the governor to allow fishing in the municipal waters 10 kilometers from the shoreline but not swimming or other water activities related to tourism.'In reality, even my constituents see for themselves that water activities are not possible because there are still traces of the oil spill. Even though the Philippine Coast Guard has declared that the oil spill is already contained and they have ceased all their activities here, there are still lumps of oil that we see on our coastal waters,' Cruz said.The mayor added that she signed an executive order on Friday declaring the continued ban on swimming and other water activities in the town's coastal areas.'As local chief executives, we are the ones who know the local situation. I even asked the office of the governor to show me the findings of a study that they claim comes from the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources declaring that the oil and grease level met the standards, but until now, they have not provided me with a copy of the findings,' Cruz further said.Fishermen and tourism establishments welcomed the declaration of Dolor, as this would mean the return of their source of livelihood.
