セブ市の従業員によって、南部の５回目の海岸清掃が開始されたようです。この活動は、ひとつのボランティア活動として行われています。
セブ市の海岸管理委員会は、清掃すべきとされる地域を２箇所ほど追加しました。今回の四半期の清掃は、9月18日に執り行われ、これは国際的な海岸の清掃日と同じ日になります。
今回の責任者であるHijara氏は、カルレタ墓地の近くのKamputhaw川も含めるべきだと主張しています。
今回の活動は、洪水や産業廃棄物に対処するためのものになることが期待されています。

THE Cebu City Coastline Management Board (CMB) added two areas on the list of areas included in the fifth city-wide coastal cleanup challenge.
This quarter’s coastal cleanup challenge will be held on Sept. 18, 2021, the same day as the International Coastal Cleanup Day.
The activity will start with a short opening ceremony at 5:30 a.m. at the Il Corso Filinvest Life Mall in South Road Properties (SRP) and the cleanup activity proper will start at 6 a.m.
Cebu City Coastal Management Task Force (CMTF) subcommittee chairperson Reymar Hijara said the board now includes on the list the area near the corner of Carreta Cemetery and a portion of Kamputhaw River near the Blessed Sacrament Parish.
Hijara said heavy equipment will be deployed in these two areas.
The Board hopes more groups will join in the cleanup as a way to help address the flooding and solid waste problem in Cebu City.
Cebu City Vice Mayor Michael Rama, who authored the ordinance institutionalizing the conduct of cleanups in Cebu City waterways, urged those who plan to volunteer in the cleanup to get themselves vaccinated first against Covid-19.
