Quarry in landslide has no permit

THE operator of the Dims Quarry at sitio Mahayahay in Barangay Langub, Ma-a, where a landslide killed three people and injured a teenage boy, was holding an expired permit to quarry from the City Environment and Natural Resources Office (Cenro).

It was also reported that an application for renewal was still pending at the Cenro before the landslide around 1:45 p.m. last Monday, which buried Edgar Selana, 49, and Nelson Tagalog, 20, both quarry laborers and residents of Riverview Village in Bacaca, Davao City.
