CHE) + ENVIRONMENTAL PERFORMANCE REPORT AND MANAGEMENT cv PLAN (EPRMP) RFCFIVED TRENE’S Pit Farm Project} ; eee: ese pare Sef 4, INTRODUCTION The Piggery Farm, which is located al Brgy. Gueset, municipality of Bugallon, Pangasinan, was issued with ECC No. Rt1-0804-055-1213 by the DENR- Environmental Management Bureau Regional Office last April 09, 2008. The project was under the ownership and management of Jams Hog Fileld Co., Ltd. Through previous ECC Amendments, the ownership was later transferred to Ms. Irene P. Sermonia, the present proponent/ECC holder. This EPRMP document is prepared In connection with the application of the proponent to amend anew the above-mentioned Environmental Compliance Certificate. The project covers the present operation of Irene’s Piggery Farm consisting of one unit conventional type Piggery Building with a holding capacity of 200 heads and support facilities. The proposed construction of three units Tunnel- Ventilated type which can accommodate a population of 1,500 heads was not pushed through as originally planned due to budget constraint. Instead, the project proponent plans to construct six units of conventional-type Piggery Building in lieu of the aborted 3 units tunnel-vent type project. 11. PROJECT DESCRIPTION a. Project Rationale The revision/change of project type from three (3) units tunnel-vent type to six (6) units conventional type Piggery building is due mainly to budget constraint, Primary reason could be pinpointed to the ever-rising cost of construction materials and labor cost for the construction of tunnel-ventilated piggery buildings. Another contributory factor is the usual high power cost to be consumed during the operation of this type jor Amendment 1 on Maj 1 Ted BoP 4a.25343~ 60-/Y . ~ ~ of project. Positive impacts of this project could create employment Opportunities for qualified local residents during the construction and operational stage. Quali local residents will be given the utmost priority in hiring so as to augment their income, which are usually derived from agricultural works. b. Project Location The Irene’s Piggery Farm is situated within the territorial jurisdiction of Brgy. Guesset, municipality of Bugallon, Pangasinan. It is confined within an agricultural land having an area of 24,482 square meters. Vegetative covers in the project site include various tree species and tropical grasses as well. | c. Project Description The existing piggery farm, with a single unit of Conventional type Piggery Bulg, is designed to accommodate 200 hog heads. The ECC Amendment will involve the revision of project type from three units tunnel- vent Piggery Building which can accommodate a total population of 1,500 heads |to six units Conventional type Piggery Building with a total holding capacity |of 1.200 heads. Each unit of this kind can accommodate a population of 200 hog heads. Appropriate wastewater facilities will be constructed in line with this project. | If fully completed/operational, the piggery farm will be operating with a total population of 1,600 heads at most. | d. Operation Process In relation to the proposed project, the operation of the farm will include hea breeding and fattening. | | The operation of a Hog Production starts from the mating of the boar and sow in the fertility cycle. They are then confined in the mating pen for the process. For a successful percentage of impregnation, temperature of the surroundings and frequency of mating activities are taken into utmost consideration. Each mating period is properly recorded to determine the farrowing time. Per study, the average . ~ w~ time of a sow to undergo a farrowing cycle is one hundred fourteen days after a successful mating. Proper medication and food supplements are introduced |to minimize hog diseases and other airbome viruses (e.g. FMD, cholera, etc.) that me affect livestock production. The sow will be transferred to a farrowing pen if there are already positive signs of pregnancy and such delivery is imminent. Upon delivery, the piglets are to be transferred into assigned pen to avoid/minimize mortality amongst the piglets. They are scheduled to be confined in the area for about fifteen days; afterwhich, they will be transferred to the nursery pen for proper medication and nursing, After an period of 45 days, the piglets will then be ready for weaning activity. They will then moved to the growing pen for proper feeding and care. After such time, they are transfert to the fattening pen to reach an ideal weight and to be ready for disposal, The water supply of the piggery farm is drawn mainly from a drilled deep ¥ 1. This provision will provide a sufficient supply of a clean drinking water, cleaning of the ‘animals and the facilities as well, Piglets produced in the operation are either sold to various hog growers or raised in the farm to be later disposed commercially in the markets and other meat outlets. | tll. POLLUTION CONTROL MANAGEMENT DURING THE OPERATION | ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING PLAN : 1. Construction of additional wastewater treatment facilities including septic vaults, lagoons and sedimentation ponds for the containment and treatment of waste water generated during the operation. 2. Provision of additional mortality pits for the disposal of dead hogs | L. 3. Regular conduct of cleaning and disinfecting/spraying of facilities and adjacent areas to prevent the proliferation of flies/rodents, etc., and to eliminate undesirable/foul odor 4, Proper management of solid wastes through segregation at source, recycling and appropriate disposal of unwanted wastes. 5. Proper implementation of mitigating and enhancement measures as described in the IEE Document IV. SOCIAL -CULTURAL AND ECONOMIC ASPECTS 1. Socio-Economic Benefits The project will provide long term job opportunities to the farm workers especially] in the operational phase. Local residents will be given priority in hiring to augment a ir income derived from agricultural works. 2. Taxes/Revenues The operation of the project will generate revenues thru annual payment of appropriate taxes, permit dues/fees and other obligations to the government. This will in-turn enable the government to undertake and implement projects which will benefit the community. 3. Land Value The implementation of the piggery project, including the above mentioned! project , will definitely create a negative impact to the land value. This is expected due to the generation of obnoxious/unpleasant odor during the operation; thus will lessen value of the land within the premises. a _ V.
