LOOK: DENR INSPECTS ALTAI MINING SITE IN ROMBLON Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) personnel inspected the Altai Philippine Mining Corporation site, where they found excavated areas believed to have been used for soil extraction during previous operations. Altai’s community relations team said the company has not resumed operations since the issuance of the Cease and Desist Order (CDO) and will comply with DENR requirements. DENR Assistant Secretary Atty. Norlito Eneran said the site needs rehabilitation, stressing that no further mining-related activity should take place while the CDO remains in effect. The inspection was conducted with the Romblon provincial government, led by Governor Trina Firmalo-Fabic, and representatives from the EMB, MGB, and BMB. The San Fernando local chief executive also attended and expressed opposition to mining in the area. Contributed photos
