Personnel of the Bureau of Fire Philippines (BFP) on Saturday resumed work to flush out fuel that reportedly leaked from a Phoenix Petroleum gas station in Barangay Bangkal in Makati City.

On Friday, the BFP conducted a “hydrotesting” at the affected gas station to determine the source of the reported leak.

Hydrotesting is a process that removes fuel from its underground storage tanks and replaces it with water to determine if the tanks have leakage, without the danger of gas explosion.  /muf
