The community and the EARTHLINK team are checking that it is real and accurate.
A thick layer of grease, locally called sebo, was found floating on the Iloilo River along Diversion Road in the Mandurriao district of Iloilo City in late July 2026. The City Environment and Natural Resources Office issued an office order creating a Joint Inspection Team to make random inspections of establishments near the affected stretch, collected samples of the grease and sent them to a laboratory for analysis of chemicals and pollutants. CENRO head Engr. Niel Ravena said violators face fines of up to P50,000 and suspension or revocation of permits.
