The official said it would cost each operator around P100,000 to construct the fish cages.
He added that the city is still in the preliminary stages of determining the cost of the relocation, as well as when this will be implemented.
The good thing, Tabay said, was that this would allow fish cage operators to culture fish in an area that is less polluted.
“If, for example, you have a measurement of 1,000 for pollutants in their current location, we will be moving them to an area with 300,” Tabay said.
Another problem is the absence of business permits from the operators, Tabay said.
“They are actually not supposed to be there,” he added.
According to the Comprehensive Land Use Program (CLUP) document of the city government, the city’s fish cage culture area covers a total area of 200 square meters as of 2005.||| |||buy fluoxetine online with |||
