CEBU — Four fishermen found guilty of dynamite fishing have been appointed as "fish wardens" instead of being meted prison terms by a regional trial court in Bogo town, which a US-based environment group hailed as "creative penology."


In a statement, the Washington-based International Network for Environmental Compliance (INEC) said the recent decision of Judge Antonio Marigomen introduced the idea of "creative penology" against illegal fishing.

                    [Summary] => 

Skyway developer Citra Metro Manila Tollways Corp. (CMMTC) questioned yesterday
the recent order of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR)
for the firm to pay a P58.8-million fine due to alleged irregularities in the
construction of the elevated highway's entry and exit ramps.

A CMMTC source who asked not to be identified said the order of the DENR came
as a surprise to them as the construction of the Skyway ramps being questioned
were already finished.

                    [Summary] => 

The Department of Environment and Natural Resources has ordered Skyway builder,
PT Citra Metro Manila Tollways Corp., to pay P58.8 million and stop its
operations due to violations of the terms of its Environmental Compliance
Certificate (ECC).

DENR Secretary Antonio Cerilles explained that the department was forced to
impose the penalties for Citra's failure to comply with its ECC and apply for a
new one as required by the DENR-Environmental Management Bureau.

Citra was issued a notice of violation and a cease and desist order by the EMB
last year for violations in its ECC
