The law (PD 1586) provides that no person, partnership, or corporation shall undertake or
operate any such declared environmentally critical project or area without first securing an
Environmental Compliance Certificate (ECC). The requirement to undergo the
Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) process covers projects established after 1982,
which have been declared as Environmentally Critical Project (ECP) or in Environmentally
Critical Areas (ECA), as technically defined by DENR-EMB. An Environmental Compliance
Certificate (ECC) will then be issued to the proponent after thorough review of the
Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) Report.
