Pasig River polluter

A SUPERMARKET-DEPARTMENT store was ordered closed by authorities for operating since 2012 without a wastewater clearance and discharge permit. The Laguna Lake Development Authority and Pasig River Coordinating and Management Office, following an inspection in January this year, said the establishment had been directly discharging untreated wastewater to the public drainage leading to Estero de Valencia, which leads to the Pasig River.
