    Amphibious excavators, dumping scows, dump trucks, debris segregator, and vacuum sewer jet cleaners were deployed in Manila Bay Tuesday, the first day of dredging operations to clean up the bay. “Sagip Manila Bay,” according to Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) Secretary Mark Villar, will cover the 1.5-kilometer stretch of Manila Bay shoreline from the Manila Yacht Club to the US Embassy.

    A new technology to boost mussel production
    Yap, Julio Jr. (Panay News, Inc., 2017-06-11)
    Majority of the mussel farmers in the country have been using the conventional stake method for their mussel production. It is said that from this method, which have been practiced locally for many years, could produce up to 150 sacks per hectare only. As a substitute for the traditional stake method, mussel longline culture technology was introduced to help the farmers improve their yield. The technology could also produce superior quality mussels, and reduce siltation in mussel beds.
