The document provides an environmental impact assessment for a proposed seawall project in Paz, Libertad, Antique. The purpose is to prevent further erosion of the shoreline. Positive impacts include protection from erosion and flooding, and reducing storm surge effects. It also provides habitat. Negative impacts are that it may interfere with natural habitat migration, be costly to construct and maintain, decrease sediment availability, and lower beach amenity values.

Kind of Project: Coastal Infrastructure Purpose of the Project: This project is to help prevent further erosion of the shoreline of barangay Paz in Libertad, Antique.
Positive Impact
o It provides protection against coastal erosion, and flooding.
Reduce the effect of storm surges by acting as a barrier between the inland structures and the shoreline. It also provide space for birds and marine life to live and breed.
Negative Impact
o Seawall might interfere with some natural processes like habitat
migration. It will also be costly when it comes to construction and maintenance. It wall also affects the availability of sediment and will decrease the amenity value of the beach.
