ILOILO CITY — Several business operators on Boracay Island object to another order by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) requiring even small establishments to put up of sewerage treatment plants (STPs). But several business owners pointed out that the order imposed additional requirements, especially to small establishments. The business owner spoke to the Inquirer on condition of anonymity as their business was still undergoing evaluation. The owner said STPs would be a reasonable requirement only for big resorts and hotels. Those with five rooms and below need to be connected to the central sewerage system or have their own STPs.
