Tapas Bar and Restaurant 2nd Floor Subic Gas Bldg 724, Dewey Avenue, Subic Bay Freeport Zone now red tide free

CITY OF SAN FERNANDO, – The Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Re- sources (BFAR) has declared Bataan free of the deadly red tide toxin and lifted the shellfish ban it imposed last Oct. 19. BFAR regional director Wilfredo Cruz said on Wednesday the latest shell- fish bulletin declared the absence of red tide in the coastal waters of Bataan after laboratory tests showed negative results of the toxin from samples drawn from the areas. Red tide toxin causes paralytic shellfish poisoning with symptoms in- cluding abdominal cramps, vomiting, diarrhea, and numbness in the face and arms. With the lifting of the ban, Cruz said that harvesting, transporting, selling and eating of shellfish from the coastal areas of Bataan are no longer prohibited. Cruz welcomed the develop- ment, saying he was happy that finally, those dependent on shellfish for their livelihood can now heave a sigh of relief. “Region 3 is red tide-free. Res- idents can now eat tahong (green mus- sels), talaba (oyster), and other shellfish from Bataan,” he said in a statement. SM GROUP BRINGS CHRISTMAS JOY THROUGH DONATION DRIVE.
