May lugar ka sa mundo, hanapin ang iyong kwento. 🌅✨

Wag magpaligaw sa ingay ng iba. Malawak ang mundo para sa iyo at sa bubuuin mong kwento.

Hindi ang simula, hindi ang dulo, kundi ang bawat segundo. 🛤️✨

Sa pagmamadali, nakakalimutan na nating mamangha sa mahika ng paligid. Kung minsan, ang kwento ay hindi sa kung saan galing o saan tayo papunta, kundi sa kung paano tayo binago ng bawat paglalakbay.

Waterways check po 💦

𝗖𝗜𝗧𝗬 𝗧𝗢 𝗙𝗜𝗟𝗘 𝗠𝗢𝗥𝗘 𝗖𝗔𝗦𝗘𝗦 𝗩𝗦. 𝗪𝗔𝗧𝗘𝗥 𝗣𝗢𝗟𝗟𝗨𝗧𝗘𝗥𝗦

Mayor Benjamin Magalong has warned of more lawsuits against individuals, households, and establishments caught dumping solid waste and wastewater into rivers, creeks, canals, and other waterways in the city.

The mayor said the city government will take a more aggressive stance against violators, citing the continued lack of discipline among some residents. "We will be very aggressive. If you keep doing this, we will keep filing cases against you," he stressed, noting that over 60 cases have already been filed, with more expected.

The crackdown forms part of intensified efforts to curb water pollution and protect the city's river systems. Inspection teams led by the Environment Management Division (EMD) of the City Environment and Parks Management Office (CEPMO) continue to monitor communities near waterways to identify violations and stop illegal practices.

EMD Head Sofronio Pascua said common violations include illegal wastewater disposal, direct discharge of wastewater, overflowing septic tanks, soil dumping, and improper disposal of solid and animal waste.
On April 24, Mayor Magalong ordered a fresh crackdown, directing CEPMO, the Public Order and Safety Division (POSD), and the Baguio City Police Office (BCPO) to strengthen monitoring and enforcement operations.

CEPMO said it is implementing a strict "one-strike policy," where violators issued a Notice of Violation (NOV) must pay a P5,000 administrative fine and correct the issue within three days. Cases may also be filed when necessary.

Data from CEPMO showed that 346 violators have been issued NOVs this year, with 123 complying and 31 paying fines. Inspections covered hundreds of structures in barangays along the Balili and Bued rivers.
The mayor reiterated that protecting waterways is crucial for future generations, urging residents to refrain from harmful practices and comply with environmental laws, including the Clean Water Act and the city's Environment Code. - Aileen P. Refuerzo

May mga lugar na binabalikan hindi para sa view... 🎞️✨

Minsan, sapat na ang tumayo sa isang pamilyar na pwesto para bisitahin ang ikaw "noon" at ang paalala kung ano ka na ngayon.
