00:00Up to 14 kilometers of oil was extracted from the sinking of MT Terra Nova in Limay, Bataan.

00:08Fishing bans were also implemented in the area, but some fishermen were in trouble because this was their only source of income.

00:16And this was pointed out live by Vona Kino.

00:20Vona?

00:22PIA Ivan, confirmed by the Philippine Coast Guard that there was a small oil spill from the oil tanker MT Terra Nova.

00:29It sank in the waters of Limay, Bataan.

00:36We managed to get John John back from fishing in the waters of Limay, Bataan.

00:41He even showed us his last catch of catfish and tuakang, which they said were for dinner.

00:46He also said that there was a fishing ban because of the sinking of MT Terra Nova, but…

00:51This is our only source of income.

00:54This is where our families rely.

00:58But the Philippine Coast Guard found out that these fish were already contaminated,

01:03especially when they confirmed that there was already an oil spill.

01:06It's already an oil spill.

01:07The fish might be contaminated.

01:10So let's not get sick first.

01:12Give us assistance so that we can catch more fish and continue to catch more fish while the fish are not released.

01:19According to Philippine Coast Guard Spokesperson Armando Balilo,

01:23the oil spill reached 12 to 14 kilometers long, but it was still minimal and manageable,

01:29and it was small enough for an alarm to go off.

01:31What we are doing now is deploying an oil spill boom in the areas where we have seen oil spill.

01:39And of course, three Philippine Coast Guard ships are operating and placing dispersants.

01:49Because of the southwestern trajectory of the oil spill,

01:51he needs to prepare the people in Batangas and Cavite.

01:55Nasugbo, Daig, and maybe there in Maribetes.

01:59Those are the people we need to talk to and prepare.

02:02The technical divers of Harbor Star also discovered a chartered salvor of an empty Terra Nova

02:08that has a small leak from the tank's valve.

02:11It is expected that the siphoning will start tomorrow

02:14or that the 1.4 million liters of oil brought by the empty Terra Nova will be sucked.

02:19It is estimated that the entire siphoning process will take seven days.

02:23Ivan Pia, according to the lawyer of Portavagas Ship Management Incorporated,

02:28they will just issue an official statement when they get the data.

02:33Meanwhile, according to the PCG, it is expected that today,

02:37the sister ship of the empty Terra Nova from Batangas will arrive here in Limay, Bataan.

02:43This is the vessel that will transport the oil that will be taken from the empty Terra Nova.

02:50Ivan Pia.

02:51Thank you very much.

02:52Von Aquino.
