The Community Environment and Natural Resources Office (Cenro) Argao in Cebu, Philippines, is set to order the stoppage of tree-cutting activities at Oslob Plaza following an inspection that found violations of the conditions of the permit issued for the work.

The inspection, which was conducted on July 18, revealed that the contractor, Green Earth Construction, had failed to meet several conditions specified in the permit, including the replanting of trees after felling.

The contractor was given a deadline to address the issues and correct the permit violations, failing which the project would be terminated.

A total of 14 trees were felled at Oslob Plaza as part of the ongoing construction project. The project aims to improve the aesthetic appeal of the area and provide a public space for residents.

However, the tree-cutting activities have raised concerns among local residents, who fear that the removal of the trees could harm the environment and affect the local ecosystem.

The DENR officers will continue to monitor the situation and ensure that the contractor complies with the permit conditions.
