III. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The Philippine coastal and marine resources experiences high pressure on several
threats such as the increasing number of coastal population or settlers, increasing
number of fishery demands, degrading coastal habitat (habitat loss) and climate
change. These pressures also include the unsustainable fishing, use of destructive
fishing techniques, and other related activities. Accordingly, barriers that limit the
local ability to address these threats include the insufficient understanding of the
connectivity of marine habitat (resources) and the ecological processes that supports
the biodiversity. Generally ineffective conservation management and enforcement of
laws, rules and regulation, and limited capacity have also contributed to the declining
coastal and marine biodiversity.
Thus, the limitations have forced the Philippine government to formulate strategies
and take actions to mitigate the pressure and threats towards sustainable management
of coastal and marine resources. In which, government have issued the Executive
Order 533, “Adopting Integrated Coastal Management as National Strategy to Ensure
the Sustainable Development of the Country’s Coastal and Marine Environment and
Resources and Establishing Supporting Mechanisms For Its Implementation”.
Pursuant to the law, the DENR is mandated as the leading government agency in the
implementation and provide technical support and guidance to the Local Government
Units (LGUs) and stakeholders in the formulation of the Integrated Coastal
Management Plan (ICMP) in coordination with other OGA, NGOs, and Private
Sector.
This management plan has focused on the strategies and management to implement by
the municipality of Manticao, Misamis Oriental to attain sustainable coastal and
marine habitat/resource.

IV. INTRODUCTION

IV.1. Scope and Purpose of the Plan

Integrated Coastal Resource Management refers to a wise and responsible use of


coastal resources to promote sustainable coastal and marine habitat/resources present
within the coastal areas. Further, Coastal Resources refers to the natural resources
present within the coastal area such as mollusk (shellfishes), crustaceans (crabs shrimp
and others), and other fishery products including the complex ecosystem that support
marine biodiversity. In maximizing the utility of the coastal resource of the
municipality, a need for proper management, strategies should be implemented and
must be supported by the local communities to regulate the collection and the use of
destructive activities in coastal area. Generally, the least concerns of local
communities have contributed a negative impact that has resulted to the declining
quality of coastal and marine resources. Thus, this led to the formulation of this
Integrated Coastal Management Plan (ICM).

This Integrated Coastal Management Plan (ICMP) is designed to serve as guide for
the Local Government Units of municipality and technical working groups who will
work and focuses on the present coastal resources users to promote sustainable marine
biodiversity.

IV.2. History Planning Process

Series of activities and coordination were conducted by the technical working group
(TWG) composed of the representatives from the PENRO Misamis Oriental, CENRO
Initao, LGU (MLGU and BLGUs), fisherfolks and the coastal local communities.
Detailed coastal and marine habitat assessment was conducted on December 9 – 13,
2019 to determine the existing coastal habitat resources within the municipality.
Socio-economic assessment through focus group discussion (FGD) and key informant
interview (KII) was also conducted by the assessment team to evaluate and determine
issues and concerns pertaining to coastal resources and fishery products.

VII.13. Land Suitability


Page 21 of 56
Due to its rugged terrain as characterized by vast hilly and mountainous areas, a large
portion of the municipality is suitable for plantation forest and Agro-Forestry. Within
the alluvial plains of Poblacion on the west going eastward towards Paniangan,
Cabalantian and Southward towards Patag and Pagawan are suitable for rice
production and growing of various cash crops.

VII.14. Geology and Land Formation

Survey conducted by Mines and Geosciences Bureau revealed that various kinds of
metallic and non-metallic minerals are found in the municipality. These are iron,
cobalt, chromium, copper, chromites, manganese, pyrites and gold. These minerals
are abundantly found in the Barangays of Upper Malubog, part of Mahayahay and
Digkilaan.

Dunite, manganese, red clays, chromites and quarts are also found in Tu-od, while
silica and pozzolon are found in Punta Silum and Paniangan.

Non-metallic minerals such as sand and gravel also abound in the area. Fine coarse
aggregates and rock grain can be found in Poblacion, Cabalantian, Tu-od and Punta
Silum.

VII.15. Drainage System

The municipality has a three major drainage, which divide the municipality from the
eastern direction where areas are steeper. From the northern part of the municipality
bounding the municipality of Alubijid is a river that branches into two minor creeks
and end in Barangay Tu-od. Manticao River, which passes at the center of the
municipality, lies parallel to one of these creeks resulting to minor tributaries that also
drain into Iligan Bay. The Mandulog River drains towards the southern boundary of
Manticao to Lanao del Norte.

VIII. AGRICULTURE

As pointed out in the Socio-Economic Profile 2002 of Manticao, the municipality was
able to identify its Strategic Agriculture and Fisheries Development Zone (SAFDZ) in
1999 in response to the government’s thrust on food security. Potential areas for High
Value Commercial Crops (HVSS) were identified and delineated in accordance to its
soil suitability, climatic condition and accessibility as basis in the formulation of plans
and programs for reinforcement and sustainability of project implementation.
Locations of support services, e.g. infrastructures were carefully studied for
prioritization to maximize their impact. A total of 2,686 hectares intended for crops
production fishery development, reforestation program as well as pasture development
are now covered in SAFDZ from the previous total of 2,429 hectares. This is due to
the Department of Agriculture’s promotion to open up new lands (idle/open lands and
under coconut plantation) for development into rice, corn and other high value
commercial crops. The stakeholders’ needs are identified in the aspect of enhancing
their skills and knowledge in the adoption of technologies to boost production.
Equally important is the development of the fishery sector as the municipality is
confronted with problem of scarce coastal and marine resources. In SAFDZ, program
on marine resources conservation and preservation is given prime importance such
that both the executive and legislative branch of this local government unit are giving
a serious thought in coming up with an ordinance declaring a portion of municipal
water, especially in Punta Silum as fish sanctuary.

The livestock and poultry industry likewise is on a roll. The multiplying effect
envisioned by the government’s animal dispersal program is evident in the number of
swine slaughtered at the municipal abattoir everyday; number of pigs
roasted/slaughtered in at least 10% of total households at puroks/sitios/barangays
durings fiestas, birthdays, weddings as well as mournings (deaths). Seemingly, there is
no shortage of supply considering that aside from the local buyers who resell these
Page 23 of 56
live pigs (everyday) to Iligan and Cagayn lechon operators, it is observed that some
buyers in motorcycles from Initao and El Salvador find their way in the far flung
barrios of Manticao to buy pigs on a regular basis.

As to the poultry industry, there is a need to augment the 600,200 heads production of
broiler per year in order to meet the domestic as well as export demand of poultry
meat considering that Philippines is bird flu free area while most of its Asian
neighbors are saddled with the disease. Local demands of industries utilizing poultry
meat that rely on importance are turning their attention to local producers to meet their
needs.

So, in addition to the existing farms enumerated in table 31 Sr. San Pedro has tapped
backyard poultry raisers and are now undergoing contract growing of broiler at the
different barangays with 200 heads per family cycle at 6 cycles per annum. A total of
25 families are already half way through the 1st cycle of date.

VIII.1. Crop Production

About 5,579.6 hectares or 42.6 percent of the total land area of the municipality are
already utilized for crop production. Being classified as an agricultural community,
this figure only represents 87.6 percent of the total agriculture land of 6,372 hectares
hence, there are still a lot of potential areas to be developed/and or utilized.

Like in most part of the province of Misamis Oriental, most farmers commonly
practiced inter-cropping, with coconut as the dominant crop. Bananas, vegetables,
legumes, fruits trees and root crops are grown under the coconut either in rotation or
mixed cropping.

Data showed that out of the 5,579.6 hectares of cropland, coconut occupies 71.56
percent, followed by banana with 21.32 percent, corn with 5.41 percent and the
remaining 1.71 percent is devoted to rice, vegetables, legumes, fruit trees and root
crops.

The municipal agricultural land gradually decreased due to land conversion either to
residential or industrial uses. Growing the staple crops like rice and corn require
enough capital due to increasing cost of inputs. This reality is considered an obstacle
in our quest for food security.
Government thrust to promote the growing of high value commercial crops (e.g.
hybrid rice and corn; exotic fruit trees like durian, mangosteen & rambutan) are
focused only on the aspects of productivity and profitability as a strategy to motivate
the farmers. Food security can only be achieved when farmers can be assured of their
profits, thus, encouraged to produce more when the general public has access and
capacity to buy their products. Therefore, the essence of food security is availability,
profitability and accessibility.

Table above indicates a total of 408.25 MT of rice produced in the municipality per
year. Since Manticao’s population is now 26597 as of 2006, its total rice requirement
is 1,196.865 MT/annum, hence only 34.11% of the total per capita consumption of the
90% rice eaters at 50 kgs per person is provided locally. The remaining 788.615 MT
or 65.89% are imported from other provinces.

To ensure self-sufficiency in rice, there is a need to expand the rice land, viz; IRR =
108 hectares; rainfed = 18 ha.; and upland = 64 hectares and to promote total
hybridization in the 108 hectares irrigated areas for a minimum production of 6
MT/ha. for a total of 1,432.5 MT per annum.

VIII.2. Cereals

Total land area planted to rice and corn comprised only 6.23 percent of the
agricultural land. The irrigated rice land is only 54 hectares situated in Poblacion and
Argayoso where two (2) Communal Irrigation System (CIS) operate. Planting and
harvesting are done twice a year; hence, the effective production area for irrigated rice
is 108 hectares. The use of Shallow Tube Wells (STW) is also encouraged to ensure
the availability of irrigation water in case when CIS fails to supply the needed volume
during dry season.

The average production of rice in the municipality is 3.5 MT/ha. It ranges from 3.0 to
4.5 MT/hectare depending on the management of the technology employed by the
farmers. Barangay Cabalantian has 7 hectares of rainfed rice. The area is planted once
a year during May-June during the onset of rainy season. Upland rice is commonly
grown in the hinter barangays of Mahayahay and Upper Malubog due to its favorable
climatic condition with a total of 30 hectares though the area is still under timberland
classification by the DENR. Corn is likewise widely grown in the municipality. There
are 302 hectares planted to this crop. Open Pollinated Variety (OPV) white corn is

Page 26 of 56
commonly used planting materials. The crop is planted twice a year with an average
production of 1.1 MT/ha.

VIII.3. Coconut

From the record of Municipal Assessor’s Office, the declared land area planted with
coconut showed a total 3,993 hectares or 30.49 percent of the municipal land area.
With an estimated average production of 1.5 MT/ha., and considering that coconut is
harvested every quarter, a total of 23,958 MT/year of copra is produced in the
municipality. However, it is observed that in the recent years, coconut production is
declining due to less productive coconut trees as most of these are above 50 years of
age and cutting down for lumber purposes.

With the prevailing crises on fossil oil supply coco-diesel/or coco-based fuel is being
considered as alternative. Coco-based feed supplement like Coconut Virgin Oil which
has curative effect is also becoming popular-demand for coconuts is deemed to
increase in the next few years hence, there is a need to replace unproductive trees and
develop new lands for coconut production.

VIII.4. Banana

Lantungdan and candavis are the most common varieties of banana planted in the
municipality. Lacatan is also gaining consideration due to its high market demand.
Bananas are mostly planted in strips in between coconut trees along the borders.
Estimated area devoted to banana is 235 hectares distributed all over the municipality.
The rest are under coconut trees.

VIII.5. Mango and Other Fruit Trees

Mango plantations through asexual method of propagation are found in barangays


Patag, Argayoso, Paniangan, Cabalantian, Tuod and Poblacion. The Bureau of
Agriculture Statistics Survey on 1995 stated that there are 5,451 mango trees in the
municipality. However, latest survey conducted by the Municipal Agriculture’s
Office with the Barangay Nutrition Scholars (BNS) as enumerators last March 2005
reveals that there are 9,599 mango trees now, a 43.21 % increase within 10 years.
Total aggregate area planted with mango is now 96 hectares. Dominant variety is the
carabao or Cebu because of its “exportable” quality/ or high market demand. Indian
and Piko varieties are grown just for the local market.

Other kinds of fruit trees are also grown in the municipality like jackfruit, santol,
pomelo rambutan, lanzones, mangosteen and durian.

VIII.6. Vegetables and Root-crops

A total of 45 hectares throughout the municipality are planted with assorted kinds of
vegetables like squash, eggplant, ampalaya, stringbeans, okra and sweet pepper.
Green bell pepper, carrots, cabbage, tomatoes, white potato and cauliflower are grown
and produce extensively at Upper Malubog due to the soil and climatic conditions
favorable to these high value commercial crops.
Page 28 of 56
Cassava and sweet potato, gabi, lutya, ube, etc. are the dominant root crops favored by
the farmers due to its resistance to extreme wet and dry season.

VIII.7. Livestock and Poultry

Livestock and Poultry industry has improved greatly in the municipality since CY
2002. . Table 30 shows that among the large animals, cattle have the highest number
followed closely by carabaos. Being an agricultural community, greater populations of
carabaos are found in barangays where farming activities are more intense. In this
case, Barangays of Cabalantian and Camanga have the greater number with 228 and
121 heads, respectively.

Cattle have a total number of 1,729 heads and are raised mainly for slaughtering or
beef production. The barangays Cabalantian and Tu-od have the highest population of
cattle with 417 heads and 267 heads, respectively. Barangay Camanga follows with
233 heads. On the other hand, backyard hog raising is so common in all barangays
with a total of 3,697 heads. It is in barangays Punta Silum and Paniangan where
commercial hog raising exists.

Backyard poultry raising is also common among the households for meat and eggs
purposes as well as for cockfighting. During the survey conducted by the Municipal
Agriculture office with the Barangay Nutrition Scholars (BNS) as enumerators, a total
of 16,904 native chicken were listed all over Manticao as of April 30, 2005.

Commercial Poultry farms are also increasing in number. These are found at
barangays Poblacion, Cabalantian and Patag. These are mainly contract growers of
either Vitarich, Purefoods, Magnolia/ and or Swift with a frequency of 6
cycles/harvest period per year.

VIII.8. Fisheries

The municipality has no major fishing grounds and as such, supply of fish products
depend from the fishing grounds of Bohol, Camiguin and Panguil Bay. Being a
coastal municipality, nevertheless, several schools of pelagic fishes like tamban and
galunggong frequently pass along the municipal waters of Manticao. However, some
unscrupulous fishermen capture these species through blast fishing.

VIII.9. Municipal Fishery

The municipal coastline has a total stretch of four kilometers that covers two
urbanized barangays of Poblacion and Punta Silum. As of CY 2006, Manticao has
587 fishing families among its 11,654 coastal population. Punta Silum has the most
number of these families relying on fishing for their daily source of income. A total
number of 230 motorized and non-motorized bancas exist in the municipality which
means that 61% of the total fishing families does not possess a banca.

In terms of fishermen classification, 70 percent are full-time and 30 percent are part-
time or sustenance fishermen.

VIII.10. Fresh Water Backyard/Frontyard Fishponds

Manticao has still very minimal freshwater fishponds. Barangays Argayoso, Balintad,
Cabalantian, Digkilaan, Poblacion, Tu-od and Upper Malubog have a total combined
area of only 9,200 sq. meters.

VIII.11. Brackish Water Fishponds

Barangay Poblacion of the municipality has an area suitable for brackish water
fishponds but covers only half a hectare area where giant tilapia is favorably grown.

VIII.12. Communal Irrigation


Page 31 of 56
The National Irrigation Administration (NIA) has 2 communal irrigation systems
situated in barangay Poblacion and Argayoso. Broad alluvial plain that stretches from
Poblacion to Patag and Pagawan is considered potential service area with a total of
350 hectares.

At present, the 2 CIS only covers 62 hectare of paddy rice in Poblacion and Argayoso
with 45 and 17 hectares, respectively. Irrigators association under the supervision on
NIA personnel manages the Communal Irrigation systems.

VIII.13. Agricultural Facilities

The Local Government Unit of Manticao operates 2 agricultural facilities in the


municipality. These are the municipal DA office and Farmers Training Center. The
training center was constructed in 2001 through the financial support of the Provincial
government of Misamis Oriental. It serves as venue for various training and seminars
among the farmers in the municipality.

VIII.14. Industry, Trade And Tourism

The municipality is one of the 14 municipalities of Misamis Oriental and 5


municipalities of Lanao del Norte considered as an industrial corridor that was
subjected to a Master Plan by an international consultancy firm commissioned by the
USAID. As an established industrial area within the corridor, mineral and agri-based
industries exist. The municipality has proved its capacity to promote both industrial
and agricultural development.

Not only rich in metallic and non-metallic minerals, agricultural resources also
abound. Limestone and Poultry industries are a potential venture as it shows a positive
trend in terms of production volume. Considering its strategic location between the 2
highly urbanized cities of Iligan and Cagayan de Oro, various contract growing
poultry farm operate in the municipality in order to supply the increasing demand of
chicken meat products.

With the promotion of the Cagayan-Iligan Corridor Special Development Zone,


Manticao shall serve as a minor site for medium and heavy industries. As a growth
center in the west of Misamis Oriental, it has the capacity to accommodate urban
expansion. Together with industrialization, it shall continue to develop its agricultural
sector in order to achieve its goal if a self-sufficient and food secured municipality.

VIII.15. Existing Industries

Metro Alloy and Integrated Chrome Corporation are mineral-based industries which
operate in an on and off basis as a consequence of economic crisis. Agri-based
industries like the Lanao Milling Corporation that produces Coco-oil, livestock
Piggery Farm both are situated in barangay Punta Silum. A total of 4 Commercial-
Page 32 of 56
Scale Poultry Farms also exist in Patag, Paniangan and Poblacion that produce more
than one hundred thousand heads of chicken per cycle.

VIII.16. Investment Priorities

There are eight (8) product lines that are considered potential investment areas in the
municipality. As the site of medium and heavy industries in the CIC Special
Development Zone, the municipality welcomes investment on metal related products.
Fruit processing venture is also envisioned since the municipality has abundant supply
of banana and mango. Mineral water processing is also being considered, as there are
various springs with unlimited supply of pure & refreshing mineral water. A world-
class industry, which produces an array of bamboo furniture and décor, is also
promoted.

Dressed chicken plan is very feasible as volume of chicken produced in the


municipality. Coconut oil as well as fine charcoal can be a profitable venture. Lastly,
cut flowers like roses, gladiolus, chrysanthemum and anthurium can successfully
grown in the Barangays of Upper Malubog, Mahayahay, Balintad and Digkilaan

IX. COASTAL AND MARINE HABITAT ASSESSMENT

IX.1. Coral Reef Ecosystem

Coral reef ecosystem is considered as the “oasis of the ocean” coral reef is among the
most important coastal and marine habitat that has a rigid structure of calcium
carbonate (CaCO3) formed by the cemented skeletal remains from the grown and
development of reef-building corals. It serves as breeding, spawning and feeding
ground for numerous marine organism that include reef fish’s sea cucumber, mollusks
and algae which are commercially and ecologically important fauna. It is estimated
that 1km stretch of healthy coral reef can produced up to 20 tons of fish per year.

Both natural and human activities contributed to destruction or deterioration of coral


reef system. Accordingly, damaged and destroyed reef takes 10 to 20 years to recover.
The condition of reef habitat system was assessed using three methods such as manta-
tow/snorkel survey and photo –Live transect method.

A total of 7.9% (poor) coral cover were found within the coastal areas of the
municipality. It is found that sedimentation is one of the contributing factors
influencing the condition of the ecosystem. According to the studies of Hodgson, 1990
and Weber et al., 2006, coral reefs are strongly influenced by sedimentation/siltation
tissue damage under a layer of sediment increases with increasing organic content and
bacterial activity, and with decreasing grain sizes. Sedimentation in combined with
“marine snow” (continuous settling of organic aggregates), killed newly settled coral
recruits (Fabricius et al., 2003). Kline et al. (2006) have shown that increased
dissolved organic matter (DOM) can cause elevated bacterial activity, leading directly
to coral death.
Thus, the effect of sediments on corals and coral reefs may involve the effect of
nutrients and bacteria carried by the sediment plume, as much as the sediments
themselves. Although, both shading and particle loading are coral stressors, it would
appear that, at least in some cases, shading suppresses coral growth to a greater extent
than particle loading (Anthony, 1999).
As summary sediment input is one of the great killers of reef ecosystem. The effect is
accentuated, because in most situations the sediment is accompanied by dissolved
nutrients and organic matter that will affect coral recruit and habitat complexity.

IX.2. Seagrass Ecosystem

A total of four (4) seagrass species were indentified during the conducted detailed
seagrass assessment at the two (2) coastal Barangays of Manticao, Misamis Oriental.
The assessment shows that Brgy. Poblacion gathered the highest cover of 28.3% with
Brgy. Punta Silum with 14.8% (see table 1; figure 1).

The conducted survey shows that the coastal area of the municipality has a poor
seagrass cover with a silty to sandy-muddy substrate. Factors affecting the status of
seagrass beds are: the high level of siltation, presence of garbages and sediment
instability.
Absence of mangrove ecosystem was observed as one of the contributing factor
affecting the ecological status of the ecosystem. Accordingly, mangrove ecosystem act
as filtering system in filtering pollutants and stabilizes sediments.
In addition, seagrass beds provide food, shelter and as a vital nursery areas in many
forms of aquatic organism. Some species can be found within the seagrass areas while
other marine organisms remain in seagrass beds just during a certain life stages.
However, it was observed that the substrate in all sampling sites is sandy-muddy
which difficult for the seagrass to strive due to the unstable substrate. Subsequently,
seagrasses trap fine sediments and the suspended particles in the water column, which
increases the water transparency. Seagrass conservation and management should be
implemented by the local communities and LGU to increase the level of seagrass
cover in their coastal waters. Also, the habitat works in filtering water nutrients
(including pollutants) from land-based discharge and water runoff before it is washed
out to other complex ecosystem such as coral reef.

Based on the establish data and information, this Integrated Coastal Management Plan (ICM)
will provide direction to the Local Government Unit of Manticao, Misamis Oriental in the
conservation and protection of existing coastal and marine habitat resources. This plan will be
continuously implemented to attain the goal for sustainability.

MANAGEMENT ACTION CATEGORIES

Habitat Management Strategies

Illegal Mangrove Cutting/Clearing

Illegal cutting of mangrove is one of the many factors affecting the density and diversity
mangrove species within the municipality. As an intervention, Community Education and
Public Awareness (CEPA) and Information Education Campaign (IEC) will be conducted
to inform locals on the ecological importance of mangroves. Laws, rules and regulations
pertaining to mangrove protection will be strictly impose/implement to ensure the
conservation of this unique ecosystem (RA 7161, JMC 98-01 and RA 9147).
Further, Bantay dagat will be created to strengthen the surveillance and monitoring of
existing mangroves. Local ordinance pertaining on mangrove conservation will be also
formulated as the legal basis in imposing fines/penalties for violators.

Coral Reef Degradation

Local fisherfolks depend on the collected reef fishes as the primary source of income and
living of the coastal communities. However, status of coral reef has declined/deteriorate
over time due to climate change, illegal fishing methods/practices and overexploitation of
ecologically important coral species with symbiotic relationship.
Strategy pertaining on the matter is the establishment and the designation of marine
protected area’s (MPA) or fish sanctuaries. Zoning and mapping in coordination with
DENR/PENRO/CENRO will be initiated to determine the extent of available habitat and
resources. Demarcation of buoys and markers will be established to delineate the MPA
and sanctuary.
The remaining areas with coral reef will be declared as locally managed MPA to protect
and conserve further the ecosystem and established artificial reef to provide opportunity
for new coral recruits to settle.

Page 47 of 56
Further, local ordinance and management plan will be impose/formulate to ensure the
proper management of locally managed MPA’s/Sanctuaries.

Seagrass Bed Degradation

Seagrass beds are considered as one of the unique habitat/ecosystems inhabiting the
intertidal zone of the municipality. Accordingly, this photosynthetic ecosystem acts as
habitat for ecologically and economically important species such as bivalves and other
associated fauna. The ecosystem also acts as nursery ground for juvenile fishes.
However, seagrass cover had declined due to climate change, introduction of pollutants,
siltation and other factors.
Strategy intervention will be the rehabilitation/plantation of the proposed mangrove sites
on both coastal and near river mouth areas. Prior to the planting activity, assessment and
evaluation on sediment composition will be conducted in coordination with the
concerned agencies to determine type of substrate and to identify suitable mangrove
species to be planted within proposed areas.
Mangrove ecosystem will minimize the load of siltation or total suspended solid (TSS)
within the water column that will increase seagrass cover.

Illegal and Destructive Fishing

Illegal and destructive fishing method is the primary cause of the deterioration on the
fishery sector of the municipality for the past years that have resulted to low coral cover.
Accordingly, the used of these methods damages existing marine habitat/ecosystem that
had cause the depletion of fishery resources where most of the community depends.
Strict implementation of R.A. 8550 as amended by R.A. 10654 (Fisheries Code of 1998)
and other related laws, rules and regulations will be imposed to addressed the issue.
Further, creation of Bantay Dagat and the strengthening of the deputized fish warden
(DFW), Municipal/Barangay Fisheries and Aquatic Resources Management Council
(M/BFARMC) and Municipal Environment and Natural Resources Officer (MENRO)
will be initiated to enforced in the surveillance and monitoring.
CEPA and IEC the within the local communities and students will be conducted to
informed locals on the existing laws, rules and regulation pertaining to fishery resources
conservation. Additionally, topics relating on the importance of marine ecosystem will
also be included in the discussion to inform locals on ecological and biological aspect.

Page 48 of 56
Facilitate proper management of the coastal environmental ecosystems (coral reef, seagrass,
mangrove and other ecosystem) within the 11 coastal barangays. Conservation and Protection
effort shall be established and strictly enforce.

Other Management action

Restoration or rehabilitation of degraded coastal and marine habitat resources such as


coral reef, seagrass beds and mangrove forest. Also, the LGU in coordination with local
residents will support the natural restoration of reef thru the prohibition of the collection
of ecologically important species such as parrotfish (mol-mol), surgeonfish (kitong) and
others. Plantation of mangrove within estuaries and upstream rivers will also undertake to
minimize silt load within seagrass and coral areas. Municipal and national laws, rules and
regulations will be enforced against unsustainable coastal practices, such as dynamite
fishing, using fine-mesh nets and other active fishing methods (Ordinance no. 763-2016
and R.A. 8550 as amended by R.A. 10654).

Shore Line and Coastal Management

Illegal Quarry (Gathering of Sand and Pebbles)

Beaches are geologic formation made up of loose rock elements such as sand, gravel and
fragments of shells and corals. However, based on the conducted coastal zoning these
resources had depleted due to establishments (households, groins and others) and over-
exploitation for construction purposes.

As an intervention strict implementation of laws, rules and regulations pertaining to the


issue and concern observed will be imposed (R.A. 7942 and R.A. 9147). CEPA and IEC
within locals will be initiated in coordination with concern agencies to inform citizens on
the importance of beach conservation. Further, local ordinance will be imposed to
strengthen the protection and conservation.

Existence of Concrete/Permanent Structures within Easement Zone

Accordingly, local citizens have the legal right to use easement or salvage zone for a
specific or limited time pursuant to P.D. 1067. However, based on the evaluation
concrete and permanent structures where established within the no build zone such as
commercial and private owned houses, groins and others.
Actions will be the conduct of zoning in order to determine structures established within
the easement zone. Notification on the affected house owners and beach operators will be
given. Public hearing will be initiated to informed owners and operators on the existing
Page 49 of 56
laws, rules and regulations (R.A. 8550 as amended by R.A. 10654, P.D. 1067, P.D. 705
and DAO 2004-24).
CEPA and IEC the within the local communities will be conducted to informed locals on
the existing laws, rules and regulation pertaining on the matter. Additionally, topics
relating on the importance of beach sediments to mesofauna and infauna will also be
included in the discussion to inform locals on ecological and biological aspect.
Coastal and Shoreline management shall also be established to stop the impact of
shoreline modification such building of groins, piers, wharfs, sea walls, collection of sand
and pebbles.

Other Management action

The MLGU thru BLGU’s to strictly enforce and implement the laws, rules, regulations, and,
municipal ordinances (DAO 2004-24, P.D. 1067, R.A. 8550, C.A. 141, and Batas Pambansa
265).

Fishery Production Management

It is found that over fishing reduces the size of fish catch of marginal fishers and also
lowers fish catch with increasing catch per unit effort (CPUe) for the past years. The
increasing number of the community residing coastal areas is one of the factors
influencing the status of the coastal fishery products. However, based on the conducted
recent study shows the increasing number of fish products collected by the marginal
fishers. To continue the inclining status of fish resources within the municipality laws,
rules, and regulations will be adopted and implemented. Marine protected areas (MPAs)
and sanctuaries will be designated at least 15% of the total coastal area to ensure the
conservation and protection these resources. Reactivation of MPA watchers or Bantay
Dagat will be primary action of the LGU to strengthen the surveillance of MPAs.
Violators will be penalized in accordance with the existing laws, rules and regulations
(R.A. 8550 as amended by R.A. 10654 and Municipal Ordinance No. 763 – 2016).

Waste and Health Management

No Proper Waste Disposal/Backyard Pens

Proper waste disposal is one factor affecting environmental cleanliness of the


municipality. However, one of the strategies proposed is the strict implementation of
R.A. 9003 (Ecological Solid Waste Management Act of 2000). CEPA and IEC on local
communities and students pertaining on the importance of proper waste segregation and
disposal will be initiated to informed locals on the effect of irresponsible waste disposal.
To strengthen the dissemination of campaign relating to the importance of proper waste
Page 50 of 56
segregation and disposal, billboards and signages will be installed to effectively
disseminate information.
Material Recovering Facilities (MRF’s) will be established in all Barangays to
minimized/avoid plastic dispersal. For marine debris found within the shoreline, regular
monthly coastal cleanup will be conducted to collect/gathered non-biodegradable trash.
Further, Solid Waste Management Monitoring team will be created to strengthen the
enforcement of existing laws, rules and regulation pertaining on solid waste management.

VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT

Vulnerability is defined as the degree to which a system is susceptible to or unable to


cope or survive with the adverse effects of climate change, including climate variability
and extremes.” It is a function of (1) the degree of the system’s Exposure to climate
hazards; (2) its Sensitivity to such hazards; and (3) its Adaptive Capacity. Sensitivity and
Exposure may be taken together to yield Potential Impact.
The primary goal of climate change vulnerability assessment is to inform the
development of policies that reduce the risks associated with climate change”. Methods
to assess climate change vulnerability have been proposed as early as 1991, but have
since evolved to incorporate advances and new understanding in climate and
vulnerability science. For instance, more recent approaches integrate socio-economic and
ecological factors; account for uncertainty and non-climatic variables; involve users in
the actual assessment;
Vulnerability assessment with the Coastal VA Tools entails analysis of (1) the physical
environment conditions driving changes in the biophysical system (Exposure); (2) the
present condition of the system as it would respond to Exposure factors (Sensitivity); (3)
and the processes affording the system its ability to cope with climate changes (Adaptive
Capacity). Integration of these three components yields a measurement of Vulnerability.
The tools focus largely on the biophysical aspect of coastal ecosystems. However, in
evaluating natural processes underlying ecosystem services, they are able to ultimately
link to the prospects of human communities.
NATURAL HAZARDS
1. Flood
2. Landslide
3. Storm surge

Flooding is experienced in most areas in the municipality particularly within the flood
prone area comprising 10 barangays, namely: Poblacion, Patag, Pagawan, Paniangan,
Cabalantian, Argayoso, Balintad Tuod, Camanga and Punta Silum. However, Barangay
Poblacion is the most affected area because of the bulk of water coming from the other
barangays. For landslide prone areas are barangays from Upper Malubog, Mahayahay,
Balintad, Camanga, Tuod, Paniangan, Cabalantian and Digkilaan. Storm surge are
experienced in barangays Poblacion and Punta silum.

Coastal Integrity Vulnerability Assessment Tool (CIVAT)


Accordingly, the Coastal Integrity Vulnerability Assessment Tool (CIVAT) has been
designed to promote ecosystems-based management of the coast. Here, we define the
coast as the zone delineated by sea cliffs, marine terraces or sand dunes on its landward
limit that extends seaward to the shore-face, or a depth at which there is little transport of
sediments by wave action. Based on this definition, this zone encompasses natural
habitats such as mangroves, seagrasses and coral reefs. It has been documented elsewhere
that coral reefs, seagrasses and mangroves are significant sources of beach sediments and
effective wave attenuators. Thus, their ecosystem service to the coastal environment is
included in this vulnerability assessment tool. Furthermore, this tool also considers
processes such as waves and sea level changes, and both intrinsic (e.g., geomorphology,
slope, shoreline trends) and extrinsic (e.g., beach mining and coastal structures)
characteristics that define the overall state of the coast. External variables are limited to
human activities that induce the loss of beach sediments.

Exposure variables such as waves and sea level changes are considered as the main
agents of erosion. There is no effort to separate the impact of waves from sea level
changes; higher sea levels would allow greater landward penetration of the waves, and
thus exacerbate land loss along the coast. Rates of sea level change are computed from
satellite-derived sea level anomaly due to their more extensive coverage compared to tide
gauges. It is assumed that the values acquired offshore are applicable to the adjacent
coast. The effects of other contributors such as vertical land movement due to tectonics
or subsidence due to groundwater extraction cannot be included due to scarcity to
absence of information.

Generally, the conducted analysis shows that the municipality has a “high” vulnerability
level (CIVAT). The level of vulnerability signifies the high adaptive capacity of marine
resources and geological forms that reduces the impact of natural hazards such as
typhoons, storm surge, landslide and earthquakes.
NATURAL HAZARDS: RISK REDUCTION MANAGEMENT
Typhoon/heavy rain
Accordingly, typhoons are types of storm system having a circular pattern of strong
winds which approximately having a total of 100 kilometres in diameter. The Philippine
archipelago is prone to experience the natural phenomenon due to the geographical
location. Thus, generally produce heavy rains that will eventually result to flooding of
large area; also typhoon creates strong winds which may result in life threatening to
heavy casualties for buildings, crops and human lives.
PAGASA’s Storm Warning System
Signal no. 1 Wind of 30 to 60 kilometer per hour
(kph) in the next 24 hours
Signal no. 2 Winds of 61 to 120 kph in the next 24
hours.
Signal no. 3 Winds of 121 to 170 kph in the next 18
hours.
Signal no. 4 Winds of 171 to 220 kph in the next 12
hours.
Signal no. 5 Winds of more than 220 kph in the next
Page 54 of 56
12 hours.

PAGASA Color-Coded Rainfall Advisories.


YELLOW Heavy rain (2 gallons per square Response:
rainfall advisory meter/hour). Monitor the weather
Flooding is possible in low-lying areas condition
and near river channels.
ORANGE Intense rain (2 gallons per square Response:
rainfall advisory meter/hour). Be alert for possible
Flooding is threatening in low-lying evacuation
areas and near river channels
RED Torrential rain (8 gallons per square Response:
rainfall advisory meter/hour) Evacuation
Severe flooding is expected

PAGASA storm/typhoon warning system and color-coded rainfall advisories will be


adopted by the municipality as the primary strategies to prevent and minimize casualties
due to this phenomenon.
Storm Surge
Storm surge or daluyong is a rise in sea level that occurs during tropical cyclones, storms
(typhoons) in which, strong winds from storms creates high wave amplitude and
frequency which lead to flooding.
Storm Surge Expected Wave Height Action to be Taken
Warning Level (meters)
Take action Above 3m Storm surge is catastrophic (enforcement
of mandatory evacuation)
Alarm 1.1m to 3m Storm surge is expected (cancellation of
marine activities and follow evacuation
guidelines from local authorities)
Alert 0.5m to 1m Storm surge is possible (preparation
measures must be carried out)
No alert 0m No action required

PAGASA Color Coded Warning System strategy will be used as guide to prevent risk of
coastal settlers from storm surge. In which the green warning means that surge of less
than a half-meter is expected. It is likely to cause minor or no damage to communities,
coastal/marine infrastructure and disruptions to all marine-related activities. A yellow
warning means surge is possible that may range from 0.5 to 1 meter in height amplitude

in which it may cause moderate to significant damage to communities, coastal/marine
infrastructure and disruptions to all marine-related activities.

Orange warning implies surge from one to three meters is expected in which it can cause
severe damage to communities, coastal/marine infrastructure and disruptions to all
marine-related activities. Significant erosion on beaches and river flooding is also
predictable during this stage. The red warning signifies the above three meters or
catastrophic surge. This stage could be life threatening, extensive flooding and extreme
damage to communities. Thus, immediate evacuation will be enforced by the authorities
to prevent further damage.

Earthquake

Accordingly, earthquakes are caused when underground rocks (tectonic plates) break
along a fault. The sudden release of energy causes the seismic waves that make the
ground shake. This happens when two blocks of rock or two plates smoothly collide were
rock breaks due to pressure built up. The ring of fire is the major area in the basin in the
Pacific region where many earthquakes and volcanic eruptions occur.

The Philippines is one of the countries bordering the pacific ring of fire which also often
experiences high magnitude earthquakes in the past years. According to the Philippine
Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (PHIVOLCS), the country experiences an
average of 2000 earthquakes per year that ranges from moderate to severe damaged
particularly on low lying communities such as the coastal areas.

To address the threats, trainings and seminars regarding in coordination with the
PHIVOLCS will be conducted by the LGU on the coastal local settlers. In which, the
activity will focus on the basic actions to be done during the phenomenon such as dock,
cover and hold. Educational campaigns will also be conducted in coordination with the
concern agencies will be conducted to promote and increase the level of awareness of the
communities within the municipality particularly at the low lying areas (coastal areas).
