STANDARD OPERATING CLAIM
NPC: Blame climate change
OFFICIALS of the National Power Corporation (NPC) insisted no one is to blame but climate change caused by global warming as the main culprit behind the massive flooding that hit Dagupan City and Pangasinan from last month.
         Still vehement in their denial that the operation of the San Roque Dam caused the flood that submerged 34 towns and cities of Pangasinan, Rogelio Redublado and Virgilio Garcia of NPC tagged the unusual volume of rains dumped by Typhoon Pepeng in northern and central Luzon as the cause of the massive flood.
Dads seek alternative to San Roque
THE Sanggunian Panglunsod of Dagupan City wants the national government to look for other sources of energy that could replace the 345-megawatt San Roque Multi-purpose Dam Project in San Manuel town
        Short of endorsing the earlier proposal for the decommissioning of San Roque Dam, a move proposed by Urdaneta City Mayor Amadeo Perez Jr. in the aftermath of the massive flood that submerged 34 towns and three cities of Pangasinan from October 8 to 14 this year, the city council's resolution, authored by Councilor Jose Netu Tamayo, asked President Gloria Arroyo to consider other options to prevent a repeat of the 10/9 flooding in eastern and central Pangasinan.

Dagupan losing millions from illegal fishpens
The illegal operations of fish pens in Dagupan City have deprived the city government of millions of pesos in yearly income.
        The city ordinance regulating the operations of fish pens was passed with aim of increasing revenues for the city and to regulate the fish pen operations that began to mushroom in early 2000.

Agbayani-Lambino will be LP team
LINGAYEN--While the Gov. Amado Espino Jr. is still making up his mind on who his running mate will be as Lakas-Kampi-CMD standard bearer, the Victor Agbayani-Oscar Lambino tandem will be the team for the Liberal Party.
       Lambino confirmed that an understanding on the team-up has been reached between him and 2nd District representative Agbayani and LP.
San Nicolas mayor not yet off the hook
LINGAYEN—"We'll still give him the benefit of the doubt.
        Thus said Senior Supt. Percival Barba, police provincial director, when asked if San Nicolas Mayor Leoncio Saldivar III has been determined to be involved with the Alvin Flores Gang (AFG), responsible for the robbery at Rolex Store in Greenbelt 5 in Makati City last October 11.

San Carlos, Agno eyed as potential ‘hot spots’
San Carlos City and Agno town are being eyed as potential 'hot spots' during the 2010 electoral campaign period, and to be listed as among the "areas of immediate concern" in the province.
        Senior Supt. Percival Barba, police provincial director, said past electoral violence in San Carlos City and Agno town make the two on top of the police's watchlist.
