Roxol Bioenergy Corporation, the bioethanol subsidiary of Roxas Holdings, has been allowed to reopen its bioethanol plant in Negros Occidental, Philippines, after implementing measures to lessen the emission of foul odor. The plant, located at Barangay Nagasi, La Carlota City, was shut down last September 9, 2016, when a cease and desist order (CDO) was filed against Roxol. The CDO was lifted this September 29, 2016 by the Office of the La Carlota City Mayor based on the results of the city government's inspection and verification of the mitigating measures implemented.
