Positive audit result averted power outages– Semirara Mining

MASSIVE power outages and the consequent economic dislocation these would have caused were averted because of the positive results of the government audit on Semirara Mining and Power Corp. (SMPC), a company official said over the weekend.

“We always protect the environment while extracting coal. The audit reports confirm that commitment. We are responsible miners and keep upgrading our systems and processes when new technologies come to the market,” said Engineer Ruben Lozada, resident manager of the Molave coal mine in Semirara Island.
