RAMON, Isabela: Renewable energy solutions SN Aboitiz Power-Magat Inc. (SNAP-Magat) has supported Cagayan Valley and the Cordillera Administrative Region (CAR) fisheries bureau with cleanup drives to commemorate this year’s Farmers’ and Fisherfolk’s Month.

The Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR) Regional Field Office-CAR and BFAR Region 2 organized cleaning operations at the Magat reservoir on May 20 and May 24, 2022, respectively.

Due to pandemic restrictions, SNAP-Magat showed support by providing diesel fuel for motor transport haulers as well as additional pack meals for volunteers.

Truckloads of mixed garbage collected by motorboats were hauled to Ramon and Alfonso Lista Sanitary Landfills for disposal and proper segregation.

Farmers’ and Fisherfolk’s Month aims to honor and recognize agricultural laborers for their outstanding contributions to the development of the local agriculture sector as well as the preservation and protection of water resources such as the Magat dam reservoir.

As part of its corporate social responsibility program, SNAP-Magat supports initiatives that are aligned with its key result areas of health, safety and the environment.
