Philippines: The Central Office of the Environment Management Bureau (EMB) has supported the import of alternative fuels by Holcim Philippines. The office sent a letter to John Simon the Port Collector of the Bureau of Customs, stating that it had no objection to the importation and use of processed engineered fuel (PEF) at the Mindanao Container Terminal (MCT) in Tagoloan, Misamis Oriental, according to the Philippines News Agency. Simon had sought clarity from the EMB over the consignment. The PEF is intended for use at Holcim Philippines’ cement pants at Davao and Lugait.
