City Engineer Virginia Rosario (with umbrella) supervises the launching of the city government’s new state-of-the-art dredging machine, IMS Model 5012 Versi-Dredge, which was purchased from the United States, at the mouth of the heavily silted Pantal River. With the new equipment, the city government hopes that flooding will be minimized in the city once the river is dredged and thus, increasing its absorptive capacity.
