The Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) on Thursday warned contractors or unscrupulous groups not to use the agency’s road clearing of obstruction order for other purposes.

DILG Memorandum Circular 121-2019 was signed “only for purposes of removal of road obstructions and cannot be used for road widening purposes,’’ said DILG Secretary Eduardo M. Año.

He emphasized that the directive cannot be used to justify road widening projects because that is covered by a different set of rules. As the Sept. 29 deadline for clearing operations nears, Año created validation teams to ensure that local government units are “on the same page in implementing DILG MC No. 2019-121.”
