LIMAY, Bataan — A diver died while a colleague is in critical condition when they plunged into a nine-meter chlorination tank inside the Alstom compound (former ABB power plant) in Barangay Alangan, Limay, Bataan, last Monday.Superintendent Luisito Bolivar, newly designated police chief, reported that Peter Jao, a diving expert of the CJMS Diving Services, did not reach the hospital alive.
He suffered broken ribs and skull.A police report stated that the cause of the falling incident was due to a foul odor that the victim inhaled while climbing the ladder on his way out of the chlorination tank.As Jao fell into the cemented flooring of the chlorination tank, his companion identified as Nenito Quintana, also a diver, went down the tank and tried to rescue him. Quintana was assisted by other employees using a crane.As Quintana was climbing the ladder on his way out, he also fell.Rescuers rushed Quintana into the St. Michael Hospital in Orion town.Investigation showed that the two victims proceeded to the chlorination tank at around 9 a.m. Monday to open the plunge for water intake from the sea. After opening the plunge, Jao climbed the ladder but fell after he allegedly inhaled a poisonous substance inside. –Manila Times
