Feliciano’s camp has filed a motion for partial reconsideration seeking to review the “apparent irregularities” in the Ombudsman’s decision dated Feb. 19. The order is immediately executory pending appeal.
CLEARED In this photo taken in May 2017, a member of a government team inspects a section of the mining tenement of Ipilan Nickel Corp. in Brooke’s Point, Palawan, following reports of tree cutting in the area. —PHOTO COURTESY OF THE DEPARTMENTFeliciano’s action against INC was prompted by the need to cut more than 20,000 trees so the company could build its facilities in Brooke’s Point. Mining operations, which began in the late 1990s, also polluted the town’s watershed, the mayor said.
“We have always conducted our operations under applicable rules and regulations, and remain firmly committed to responsible mining. We hope this decision will allow us to move toward community development and sustainable growth in Brooke’s Point and nearby communities,” said Carlo Matilac, project operations head of INC.
Feliciano has been instrumental in stopping INC’s operations even as the company was able to extend its mineral production sharing agreement until 2025 through the Department of Environment and Natural Resources.
