    the san juan river (the one that crosses quezon avenue beside the mitsubishi dealership) is so silted and full of garbage that it is no longer capable of draining the area. more so than garbage, squatters (BOTH THE POOR AND THE RICH) have encrouched on the river and its width is no longer what it used to be. buti pa nga yung squater na mahirap poste lang na 2x3 yung nakatusok sa ilog, yung squater na mayaman tinambakaan na at nilagyan ng rip rap.

    same din sa tributaries ng san juan river, upstream are the mariblo, talayaan and culiat creeks. silted and full of garbage so much that the river bed is only 1 foot above the road in some places. like at the bridge at del monte avenue, yung side streets dun ambon lang baha na.

    May kausap akong tiga-DPWH sa province. Siltation talaga yung pinaka problem nila. Even when i walk along the main road near our place which they recently dug up for new drainages, you'll see how high the siltation on the old drainages are, halos nasa top of the sewerage na yung lupa at basura. Aside from trash, one problem we have is we don't plant any greens (trees, plants, and grass) in urban areas kaya yung soil erosion, deretso sa drain.
