Binaligtad nito ang desisyon ng Court of Appeals noong 2005 na pumanig sa Marcopper.

Sabi ng Supreme Court: “In sum, the CA committed grave abuse of discretion in ignoring irrefutable evidence that the subject property is not a machinery used for pollution control, but a structure adhering to the soil and intended for pollution control, but has not been actually applied for that purpose during the period under assessment. ”

First RORO vessel to ply Batangas and Marinduque route

Manila (30 December) — The M/V Virgen de Peñafrancia II, a Roll-on Roll-off (roro) vessel financed by DBP Maritime Leasing Corporation (DMLC) and owned by Star Horse Shipping Lines, will be the first vessel to service passengers at the Subuquin Terminal in San Juan, Batangas.

The roro vessel has been given a “missionary route operator status” by the Maritime Industry Authority (MARINA), and will particularly provide efficient, fast, and reliable shipping service to residents of San Juan, Batangas and Mogpog, Marinduque.

Imported from Korea under the financial leasing program of DMLC –a subsidiary of state-owned Development Bank of the Philippines (DBP) –the roro vessel is expected to provide vital support to the agricultural, industrial, and regional development of Batangas and Marinduque.

This initiative complements efforts under DBP’s Sustainable Logistics Development Program (SLDP) and President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo’s Strong Republic Nautical Highway program which both aim to provide an efficient network of transport infrastructure that will link the entire country through a modern Road Roll-on Roll-off Terminal System (RRTS).

Sa Kamias [Quezon City] ay may Tritran at Jac bus stations. Maaari kayong sumakay roon ng bus na biyaheng Dalahican pier sa Lucena. P200+ ang pamasahe sa aircon bus. Pagdating sa pier ay sasakay naman kayo ng barko papuntang Marinduque. More than 200 din ang pamasahe sa barko. May dalawang option kayo sa destinasyon ng barkong sasakyan:

a.  Biyaheng Balanacan pier sa bayan ng Mogpog. Mas popular na port; mas maraming biyahe papunta rito. (Right now, wala pa akong list ng exact na oras ng mga byahe ng barko — will post sa Marinduqueno.com kapag nakakuha ako.) Mas maiksi ang oras na gugugulin ninyo sa dagat, pero mas malayo ang port na ito sa Torrijos. Kakailanganin ninyong sumakay ng pampasaherong van papunta sa bayan ng Torrijos. Around 100 siguro ang pamasahe.

b. Biyaheng Buyabod pier sa bayan ng Santa Cruz. Dadalawa na lang yata ang biyahe papuntang Buyabod araw-araw. Pero mas mas malapit ito sa Torrijos. May mga dyip kayong masasakyan papuntang Torrijos mula sa pier na ito. Below 100 naman ang pamasahe.

Kung trip naman ninyo ay dire-diretsong biyahe, puwede kayong sumakay sa Jac Liner buses mula rito sa Kamias, Quezon City. May biyahe ng bus na diretso sa Santa Cruz, ang bayan namin, na katabi lamang ng Torrijos na kinaroroonan ng Poctoy beach. Pagdating sa Lucena,
isinasakay ang bus sa roro, kaya’t di na ninyo kakailanganing lumipat. Mas mahal yata ang pamasahe rito, di ako sure kung P500 nga, at medyo mas matagal ang biyahe.

The official website of the province has a page that details how to go to Marinduque.
