SRPC, NPC execs: Not guilty
LINGAYEN--It was all "Pepeng's" fault.
This was the opinion given by
an official of the San Roque Dam as the
Sangguniang Panlalawigan
conducted an inquiry on the possible
causes of the worst flooding in the
province's history when Typhoon
Pepeng hit on Oct. 9. |

In the entire Ilocos Region, 268 cases have

Ilocos cops on alert for "Undas"
CAMP BGEN OSCAR M FLORENDO, La
Union--The police force in the Ilocos
Region is on full alert for the duration
of the observance of All Saints' Day and
All Souls' Day on November 1 and 2
(locally known as undas).
Chief Superintendent Ramon Gatan,
regional police director, has ordered
the augmentation of route security,
traffic management and preventive patrol
operations in the provinces of Ilocos
Norte, Ilocos Sur, Pangasinan and La
Union. |
Dredging continues but flooding can't be
stopped
DREDGING of rivers continues daily in
Dagupan but city officials believe this
does little to mitigate floods when
heavy rains fall again.
The dredging is seen to at least help in
hastening the return to the sea of water
that spilled inland during every tidal
rise, according to City Administrator
Alvin Fernandez. |
Villegas takes over Diocese November 4
SECURITY will be tight in Dagupan when
some 500 dignitaries, including
high-ranking Catholic Church officials,
flock to the city to witness the
canonical installation of Bishop
Socrates Villegas as archbishop of
Lingayen-Dagupan on November 4.
Villegas, 49, former bishop of
Balanga in Bataan, succeeds Archbishop
Oscar Cruz whose retirement at the age
of 75 was accepted September 8 this year
by the Holy See. |

Pepeng wrecks
city’s illegal fishpens
It took the wrath of Typhoon
Pepeng for the Dagupan City Sanggunian to
unearth what appears to be a conspiracy in the city hall
to promote and protect illegal operations of fish pens
in the city's rivers and tributaries.
After an inventory in the aftermath of
Typhoon Pepeng, it has been determined that 50
per cent of some 700 bangus fish pens originally allowed
to operate located in various rivers here were illegally
operating.
Agat Bridge in Sison
now partially open
SISON--Travel for light vehicles between Pangasinan and
La Union via the flood-damaged Agat Bridge, across the
Bued River, is now possible following installation of a
temporary bridge, the Office of Civil Defense (OCD)
regional office announced.
However, the temporary structure only has a
one-way lane and vehicular traffic from both directions
will be set in turns.
