Possible fallen debris from China's rocket launching — NDRRMC

The National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council (NDRMMC) on Monday warned the public of possible debris falling from the sky due to China's upcoming launching of its Long March 7 rocket on July 15 to 17. In an advisory, the NDRRMC said that the possible drop zones are within the vicinity of Cabra Island, Occidental Mindoro; Recto Bank; Busuanga, Palawan; and Bajo de Masinloc. 'The Chinese rocket will be launched from Wenchang Space Launch Site in Wenchang, Hainan between 0200H-0600H PhSt. Parts of the rocket are expected to drop within the identified drop zones,' the advisory read. The public is also advised to avoid getting near or in contact with the debris. The NDRRMC also advises the public to immediately inform local authorities of any sighted suspected debris at sea and land. 'Philippine Space Agency cautions everyone against retrieving or coming near these materials to minimize risk from remnants of toxic substances such as rocket fuel,' the NDRRMC said. 'Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) is recommended when contact with the debris is necessary.' Further, the NDRRMC advised the Philippine Coast Guard, Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources, and the Department of Environment and Natural Resources NAMRIA to consider imposing temporary restriction and the issuance of notice to mariners and coastal navigation warnings. — Vince Angelo Ferreras/RF, GMA Integrated News
