DESPITE a cancellation order of a supplemental agreement, the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) failed to evict Blue Star Construction Development Corp. from the Masungi Georeserve and Garden Cottages Resort in Baras, Rizal.
“The DENR demands with finality that you vacate the premises covered by the transfer certificate title issued to the Bureau of Corrections and DENR Region IV-A within a non-extendible period of 15 days from receipt of this notice,” the order read.
“The DENR reserves its right to initiate the applicable administrative, civil and criminal cases against the appropriate party/ies before the proper courts or administrative bodies in relation to other relevant agreements between this Department and Blue Star, other corporate bodies with interlocking directors, and other entities in the area,” it warned.
According to DENR Assistant Secretary for Legal Affairs Norlito Eneran, the agency sent a team from the Records Section and Environmental Law Enforcement andProtection Service to serve the cancellation order against Blue Star but private guards in the area prevented the team’s entry and refused to receive the notice a week ago.
