House Committee to Investigate Necessity of Manila Bay Dolomite Beach Project

The House of Representatives in the Philippines will investigate the necessity of the Manila Bay Dolomite Beach project, assessing its relevance amid concerns over flooding and environmental impact.

• The investigation into the Manila Bay Dolomite Beach will commence in the third week of November, led by Bicol Saro party-list Rep. Terry Ridon.
• The House committee on public accounts aims to determine if the Dolomite (rock) used in the project justified its costs and environmental implications.
• Concerns about flooding in Manila have heightened scrutiny over the projects sustainability and effectiveness in addressing environmental issues in the Bicol Region.
