The Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR) has implemented a shellfish ban in 8 areas in Bataan due to red tide. | |||
Residents of Balanga City, Mariveles, Limay, Orion, Pilar, Orani, Abucay and Samal are not allowed to catch, sell and eat shellfish after a BFAR study showed high red tide toxin levels in shellfish in the area. | |||
The agency also advised the public against eating shrimp paste or "alamang." | |||
Other seafood, including fish, squid and crab, are safe to eat as long as they are fresh and rinsed thoroughly before cooking, according to BFAR Director Atty. Asis Perez. | |||
Meanwhile, shellfish remains banned in Dumanquilas Bay in Zamboanga del Sur, Murcielagos Bay in Zamboanga del Norte, Masinloc Bay in Zambales, and Matarinao Bay in Eastern Samar. | |||
