The Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR) advised the public to refrain from consuming fish caught from areas affected by an oil spill from Bataan province as they are considered unfit for human consumption.
“This is to avoid incidents of food poisoning as a result of ingesting contaminated seafood,” BFAR said in its latest bulletin issued on Thursday afternoon.
BFAR said results from the sensory evaluation showed fish samples collected from the towns of Noveleta and Rosario in Cavite province have “some degree of tainting with petrochemicals.”
