One (1) – Year Social Development & Management Program

I. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

In conjunction with the revised Implementing Rules and Regulations on the


Implementation of the Social Development and Management Program for the
development of the host and neighboring communities as stipulated in Department
of Environment and Natural Resources Administrative Order No. 2010-21 of
Chapter XIV Section 134, the Rosario Manobo Mining Corporation (RMMC)
prepared the first ever Five-Year SDMP which envisions to assist in the
development of the host community wherein the primary goal of the Program is
intended for the general welfare of the mining community specifically in improving
the quality of life of the marginalized and disadvantaged families even after the
mining company/mineral processing plant ceases its operation. The law further
embraces the important components that the mining industry needs to become
vibrant, responsive and responsible.

For a mining company, the participation of the mining communities is considered


vital in crafting a realistic, harmonized and community- based programs, projects
and activities to be included in the SDMP. The SDMP and the identified PPAs will
guide the mining companies in the allocation of resources, materials and technical
know-how in the implementation of the PPAs of the SDMP. This 1st Social
Development and Management Program attest to the sincerity of Rosario Manobo
Mining Corporation (RMMC) on its commitment for the development of their host
barangay.

In the process of formulating the SDMP, the Company conducted a


Community/Sectoral consultation in determining the needs of the host community.
Likewise, the company combined the data on the current Barangay Development
Plan & local socio-economic profiles as basic references in the preparation of this
Program. The data and information gathered generally described the situation of the
community highlighting the perceived and existing problems, issues and concerns
prevailing therein.

In the end, RMMC is hopeful that through this SDMP, it will uplift the quality of life of
the people living in the host barangay even after the end of the Company’s
operation.

II. INTRODUCTION

In consonance with the policies of Republic Act 7942, the Philippine Mining Act of
1995, Rosario Manobo Mining Corporation for the first time will implement the
Social Development and Management Program (SDMP). This SDMP is a strategic
development partnership between the Company and its host and community and
other stakeholders.

In this 1st 5-year SDMP Implementation, the Company shall build community
partnership and hoping for volunteerism particularly at the community in the

implementation of the different SDMP program, projects and activities.

Through participatory processes like planning workshop and consultations with the
Program stakeholders, proposed programs, projects and activities were identified
based on the result of the Community Consultation made by the Company with
regards to the current needs of the barangay beneficiaries.

With the guidance of the Mines and Geosciences Bureau Region XIII, the
commitment of RMMC and the cooperation of the residents who comprise the host
barangay of the Company, it is certain that this One (1)-Year SDMP will push further
the development of the RMMC community.

2.1.3 Brief Description of Baseline Environmental Conditions

The brief baseline environmental condition is described as follows:


Environment Key Findings or Conclusions
The mine site is situated in a 20-hectare land area within APSA No. 0039-XIII. It previously operated under two
(2) Small-scale Mining Permit with an Environmental Compliance (ECC) issued in February 26, 2007 and
January 19, 2007 respectively. The major land features are the Sunshine Tunnel, Loring Shaft, Mechanical
Shop, grassy settling pond and dump bin.

The mill plant and facilities are sited in a 19-hectare acquired land area at 4.0-kilometers road distance away
from APSA 0039-XIII. The major surface structures are the building hosting the crusher, ball mill and classifier,
leach tanks, thickener, carbon adsorption columns, Tailings Storage Facility (TSF), Assay laboratory and Mill
Plant Office.

The project site is characterized by rolling to moderately sloping terrain with locally rugged topography at the
eastern boundary. Elevation ranges from 90 to 440 meters above mean sea level. The site is dissected by
Land upstream tributaries of the Solibao River exhibiting typical dendritic drainage pattern.

Based on the soil map of Caraga Region generated by the Bureau of Soils and Water Management (BSWM),
the project site is practically underlain by the Malalag soil series classified as Typic Hapludults. Malalag series
are upland primary soils developed from a mixture of metamorphic, igneous and shale parent rocks. It is
described as well-drained soil but because of the hilly and mountainous relief where it developed, it is best
suited for forestry than agriculture.

The project site is about 24.5 kilometers to the east of the nearest trace of the Philippine Fault Zone and is thus
not prone to ground rupture hazard. It could however experience ground tremor during a major earthquake
event particularly from movement along the Philippine Fault Zone. Assuming a 7.5 magnitude earthquake to
occur at the nearest fault trace, the expected ground shaking using the attenuation equation of Fukushima and
Tanaka will be in the range of from 0.19, 0.32 to 0.45 g for rock, medium, and soft soil, respectively.

Tenurial instruments in the municipality of Rosario includes Certificate of Land Ownership Award (CLOA)
issued by DAR in the Alienable and disposable land areas and NDC, CADC 153 issued to the Manobo Tribe
comprising the timberland areas, free patent and homestead patent title in the A & D areas.

Based on the Forest Land Use of the Municipality, the project site is classified as "mineral land". The project
Site has been long subject to small scale gold mining operations as it is categorized to be within the
mineralized area. The land cover is evidence with open cultivation with various Agro-forestry practices.

The project site based on the geographical location, straddles within the Latay Nyholm – Panganan – Maputi -
Sumugbong sub-watershed covering 22,897.75 hectares and Masabong - Anas - Tandawan - Tapo sub-
watershed. On the listed drainage of the municipality shown in only Anoling Creek is traversing the project area
with a length of 1.76 kilometers.

The Project Area is mainly drained to the northwest thru Tapo River, Kagumay River and Kumagingking River
which empties its load to Solibao River. Rose and Jacky creeks are perennial creeks that traverse the central
portion of the Project Area flowing in a northwesterly direction which drains the Kumagingking River.
Water
During the months of the rainy season, particularly during nearby rains, the waters in the major drainage swell
and sometimes developed into minor floods. All the waters of the rivers and its tributaries are drained to Solibao
River and finally to Agusan River.

The water quality of Jacky Creek shows significant levels of mercury (Hg) while excessive levels of total
suspended solids (TSS) is noted in Sumogbong, Tapo and Jacky Creeks.

An unknown creek traversing the mill plant is significantly dry.


The climate in Agusan del Sur is Type Il climate. It is generally wet all year round with heaviest precipitation
from December to January. The province receives a monthly average rainfall of 355mm and an average
Air temperature of 27.15°C.

III. OVERVIEW OF THE SDMP

3.1 Rationale

Republic Act (RA) No. 7942, otherwise known as the Philippine Mining Act of
1995 and its Revised Implementing Rules and Regulations (IRR) including
Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) Administrative Order
No. 2010-21 (Sec. 136-A), mandates all mining and mineral processing
companies to "prepare an SDMP, in consultation and in partnership with the host
and neighboring communities”. The SDMP shall be actively promoted and shall
cover and include all P/P/As towards enhancing the development of the host and
neighboring communities. Host community refers to the barangay (s) where the
mining area is located, and neighboring community refers to the barangay(s)
adjacent to the host community.

Based on Section 134-D of the above stated DAO, the required minimum
allocation of the mining company should be 1.5% of its operating cost for the
following: 75% (of the 1.5%) for the implementation of the Development of Host &
Neighboring Communities; 10% (of the 1.5%) for the implementation of the
Program for the Development of Mining Technology and Geosciences; and 15 %
(of the 1.5%) for the implementation of the Promotion of Public Awareness &
Education on Mining Technology & Geosciences.

The DENR DAO 2010-21 further stipulates that the SDMP shall be prepared and
submitted to the MGB Regional Office for approval as provided for in Section
136-B. In Section 135 (DENR-DAO 2010-21), the PPAs under the following
areas of concern are considered creditable activities and expenditures of SDMP:

The Social Development and Management Program of Rosario Manobo Mining


Corporation covers only Barangay Sta. Cruz in the Municipality of Rosario,
Agusan del Sur.

3.2 Goals and Objectives

The SDMP as described in the MGB Primer is "a tool for the development and
implementation of community Programs / Projects / Activities (PPAS) in
consultation and in partnership with the host and neighboring communities".

The law defines the SDMP "as a comprehensive five-year plan towards the
sustained improvement in the living standards of the host and neighboring
communities by creating responsible, self-reliant and source-based communities
capable of developing, implementing, and managing community development
programs, projects and activities in a manner consistent with principle of people
empowerment

All SDMPs should therefore be designed to align with mandated goals and
objectives, namely:

1. Meet minimum basic needs of the mining communities and promote sound
society and enhance human welfare.

2. Optimize the advancement of human resources which includes community


development and people empowerment to attain self-help, self-reliant and
self-managed communities

3. Provide opportunities for a self-sustained livelihood (means of income)


thus decreasing dependency on the benefits derived from the mining
companies

4. Promote conservation and intellectual use/management of the


environment vis-â-vis community and mining activities; and

5. Protect socio-cultural values and local patterns amidst improved economic


condition and human advancement

3.3 Phasing

Towards the implementation of the SDMP, the Company shall be responsible in


the implementation of the different programs, projects and activities embodied in
the SDMP.

The Company through the Community Relations Office, conducts consultation


with the communities prior to implementation of the PPA'S, prepare the
necessary documents, and establish linkages with National Government
Agencies concerned. The actual implementation of PPA's is the responsibility of
the Company.

All identified PPAs included in the SDMP follow a program for implementation
presented in a table format; each PPA has a corresponding budget and a
timetable of execution within the SDMP Five-Year implementation timeframe.

As provided by the lRR of R.A. 7942, the Company together with the community
representatives, LGU and MGB XIII will conduct monitoring and evaluation.

3.4 SDMP Methodology

The formulation of the SDMP undergoes a series of activities with the aid of the
different methodology, tools and processes. Since the Company is on its first
SDMP formulation and implementation, a Public Scoping was conducted to
inform the community of the mining project operation. Going to the formulation of
the SDMP, the Company conducted a community consultation to determine the
needs of the mining community. The application of these methods is to fill the
gaps in the implementation and will boosts the efforts of the Company to allocate
resources financial, technical or material, push for a more democratic approach
where the mining communities can fully participate in planning and identifying
community programs that will result to improvement of their socioeconomic
statures.

3.4.1 Methodology, Tools and Processes Development Planning

In the formulation of the SDMP, a public consultation and planning workshop


were conducted, participated by the different sectoral representatives of the host
barangay. These tools were used to guide the barangay officials and mobilize
support from the community in the identification of the PPAs, the fund source,
location and time frame of implementation and the responsible person in charge
in the implementation phase of the individual PPAs. A democratic consultative-
participatory approach ensures the full participation of the members and instilling
the sense of ownership of the projects.

After the finalization of the Program, Projects and Activities, the document will

IV. HOST BARANGAY PROFILE AND SITUATIONAL ANALYSIS

4.1 HISTORICAL BACKGROUND

In 1958, Sta. Cruz, was originally named Sitio Anoling which used to be
Barangay Cabawan, under the Municipality of San Francisco. Anoling was
derived from a local dialect OLING" coming from a wood specie which is noted
for its charcoal characteristic. The National Highway was constructed in 1950
through the Department of Public Works and Highway and the officer in charge of
that time, TENIENTE DEL BARRIO was FLORENCIO PEREZ in 1956-58.

In 1962 Anoling became a regular Barangay through the Barangay council which
was then headed by "JUAN ATUPAN" a barangay captain elect. Infrastructure
like school, Barangay Hall, churches, barangay road among others were put-up
during his term.

The barangay became progressive even its infancy stage due to the presence of
investors who were involved in gold mining (GOMOCO MINING Corp.) AND
LOGGING OPERATION (CONSUELO V. CALO)

Among the barangay officials who administered the barangay includes the
following: FLORENCIO PEREZ (1956-58), JUAN ATUPAN (1958-62) THOMAS
CALUMA SR. (1962-65) DOMINADOR SARATE SR. (1965-67) VEVENCIOP.

OCITE SR (196772) RAMON PUGOSA SR. (1972-82) PEDRO AVILA (1982-86)


MELBINO P. OCITE SR. (1986-2003), MARCOS A. BIGARAN SR. (2003-2007),
CONCORDIO P. OCITE (2007-2010), BELARMINO G. BALAGOT (2010-
2016), MARIANITO P. GONZALES (2016-2019), then Punong Barangay
FELICIDAD OCITE (2019-current). In late 80's, the barangay had an unstable
peace and order situation due to the presence of the New People's Army (NPA),
Lost Command (LC) and other subversive groups.

The entry of ALSAMASA in 1983 had neutralized the activities of the different
groups that made troubles in the barangay. The forming of the ALSAMASA was
facilitated after the elections of the Punong Barangay elect MELBINO P. OCITE.
This approach getting rid of subversive and other lawless elements was
materialized with assistance of the National Government. At present, the
barangay is a pleasant place to live in.

Due to the stable Peace and Order condition of the place it was able to build
Public Market, a community High School and Elementary School, Health Center,
Barangay Information Center, BNS Station, Nutrition Post in different puroks,
Solar dryer at Purok Padigusan, waiting shed in all puroks, Primary school,
Daycare Center, Covered Court, Barangay Road Network, Material Recovery
Facility, Barangay Evacuation Center, Ongoing project of Barangay Health
Station and Pavement. Also present in the barangay are different religious sector.
Barangay Sta. Cruz then was the model barangay for education; thus, putting up
high school main campus with two (2) annexes to other barangays located at
Barangay Bayugan 3 and Novele.

Barangay Sta. Cruz has been a recipient of various National, Provincial and
Municipal program and projects i.e., farm to market road, National Greening
Program (NGP) and yellow corn, rice seed subsidy, coconut, rubber production
and reforestation projects. For the daily subsistence needs of the people, small
scale mining is commonly done as source of alternative livelihood.

Rosario, Barangay Sta. Cruz has a total land area of 5,563 hectares; it is the third
biggest barangay in terms of land area next to Wasian.

As to soil classification, based on soil analysis at provincial Agriculture Office and


Municipal Agriculture Office of Rosario; Sta. Cruz is suitable to all kinds of crop
based on its elevation requirements. In lowland and Marshland, rice, corn and
vegetables are suitable crops that can be grown if proper drainage canal will be
put-up. The rolling areas with Kidapawan loam soil classification and elevation
that is not more than 18 degree is suitable for banana, abaca, coffee, rubber, fruit
trees, oil palm and other fast-growing trees
i.e., falcata, mangium, bagras and Gemelina.

4.2.6 Soil Type

Based on soil analysis and as per record of Municipal Planning and Development
Office (MPDO), Municipal Agriculture Office of Rosario, barangay Sta. Cruz has
three (3) types of soil namely:

1. MOUNTAIN SOIL UNDIFFERENTIATED - Mostly found in the hilly areas


and best for abaca, coconut, fruit trees, rubber, cash crops, fast growing
trees such as falacata, acacia, magium, Gemelina, ratten and others.

2. KIDAPAWAN LOAM- Found in the lowland areas and best for rice, corn and
vegetables.

3. MAMBUTAY SANDY LOAM - Found also in the lowland and best for rice.
Corn and vegetables

4.2.7 Soil Suitability

Barangay Sta. Cruz is endowed with moderately fertile soil found suitable to
various crops, ranging from cereal, cash crops, and high valued commercial
crops and fast-growing trees. Its soil ph ranges from 5.5 to 7.5 only.

4.2.8 Erosion and Susceptibility

The upland portion of the barangay is very much susceptible to soil erosion and
flash floods due to Small Scale Mining Industry and denuded mountains.
Moreover, erosion occurred in the upland area due to the no more trees and
tillage practices.

4.2.9 Flooding Hazard/ Flood Prone Areas

Some Puroks of Barangay Sta. Cruz are identified as flooding hazards, especially
during the months of November until February. Based on farmer's experience,
flood prone areas are located along Solibao River and Padigusan creeks wherein
water level easily overflowed during occurrence of heavy rains and caused
considerable crops and livestock damages. It is also observed that the creek is
heavily silted due to the existing illegal mining and Zero tillage practices or
"KAINGIN" in the uplands.

As presented in the table, the total area planted with different crops in the
barangay involves 795.25 hectares. It is noted that said area is considerably
larger than the actual agricultural area declared as per land use data. This means
that some Forestland areas are now planted with agricultural crops like rubber
and coconut, in as much that said area is now issued with CADT under
CAMPACCAM. Rice is the largest area of land utilization in Barangay Sta. Cruz
with 206 hectares; followed by Rubber with 179 and coconut by 115 hectares and
fruit trees as the least land area such as rambutan and mangosteen with only 1.5
hectares respectively.

However, there are still potential areas that needs to be developed comprising
930 hectares; of which rubber, banana and coconut could be the largest possible
crops to be planted and that more farmers currently expand in planting these
crops.

4.4.1.1.2Agricultural Land Cultivated by Households

The information presented in the matrix determines that most of the households
have small landholdings, of which 36 households cultivated less than 1 hectare
and 49 with 1-3 hectares. But despite of small landholdings, the government
should introduce alternative means of land utilization that the farmers could
obtain high yield; implement land-based projects that require small area but will
give higher income and benefits like diversified farming system technologies.

4.4.1.1.3Sustainability of Agricultural Land Use

Agricultural lands are currently and diversely used for basic commodity crops,
medium and long-term crops. Farming practices of the farmers are a combination
of traditional cropping systems and use of highly commercialized inputs
especially for rice and corn that will deplete soil fertility in the near future; thereby,
increasing the production cost and reduces the income of the farmers.

In order to sustain the productivity of the agricultural lands, adaptation of


sustainable agricultural practices such as the use of organic farming, diversified
farming system and sustainable technologies should be intensified. The local
government unit is trying to develop environment-friendly legislations and
developmental programs/project so that economic initiatives and benefits of the
constituents will not be jeopardized. Since the barangay is rich in mineral
deposits like gold, agricultural zone should not be maximized for this purpose
instead protective measures must be institutionalized with appropriate sanctions
against encroachments.
The people also should promote alternative but sustainable means of land
utilization thereby increasing the productivity and income of their families
respectively. This could be made through awareness building and capacity
enhancement activities on sustainable agriculture practices in the barangay and
continuous advocacy on environmental protection for sustainable use.

4.4.1.1.4Production by Type of Crops

In the table on the next page, the three major crops planted in the barangay
include rice, rubber, and coconut. Rice involves 206 hectares physical area, and
planted twice a year with an average yield of 3 mt. /hectare, Rubber involves 179
hectares with average yield of 0.5mt./hectare/month, and coconut which is 115
hectares area planted and an average yield of 1.5 mt. /hectare per month. Minor
crops include fruit trees like durian, lanzones, rambutan, mangosteen, and
marang which comprise a total area of 18 has. 27 hectares,
1.5 hectares and 4.0 hectares respectively. Palm oil is also another minor crop
planted in the barangay with a total area of 52 hectares and average yield of 2.0
mt. /ha. Per month.

During the focus group discussion, it was known that people only use the
traditional means of farming considering that soil fertility is not much depleted.
Most farmers only apply minimal inorganic fertilizer and only few applied organic

With this current situation of production in the barangay, there are some issues
and problems that needs to be considered and shall be given priority response
which include: the lack of techniques to maximize land cultivation, insufficient

technology to increase productivity, no farm planning practice, farmers never


practice crop rotation, and weak adaptation to organic fertilization and financial
incapacity. Another concern is that promotion of local demonstration sites of
various cropping systems is not given importance, so that the farmers could gain
enough knowledge and techniques to increase productivity.

LEGEND:
Land Preparation Planting

Care and Maintenance Harvesting

The cropping pattern of rice and corn in the barangay is being presented in the
table above; of which both crops have two cropping seasons within whole year
round. For rice, farmers prepare their land on the months of January to February
for first cropping and by July to August for the second cropping. After land
preparation, they start planting on the same months both for first and second
cropping seasons. Care and maintenance will follow right after planting
schedules which fall every February until May for first cropping and August until
November for the second cropping. Harvesting of rice will be in the months of
May to June and October to November. In the month of December, no farming
activities for rice farmers due to rainy season which will commonly resulted to
flashfloods.

On the other hand, land preparation for corn starts on February until March for

first cropping season and on July until August for second cropping period. At the
start of the land preparation, care and maintenance also begin for the first
cropping until May and until October on the second cropping. However, planting
period is within March and April for

First cropping period and from August until September for the next cropping
every year. Harvesting periods are within May and June first cropping and
October and November for the next period.

Low

Source: Municipal Agriculture Office (MAO), 2010

High demand for labor force is during land preparation and planting period and it
increases during harvest time. Minimal requirement of labor is during the care
and maintenance period and least demand for labor is during the lean period
which is on December. Low labor requirement in agriculture tends the people to
venture to another source of income and alternative livelihoods like mining and
as laborer in logging operations. During high demand for labor force, people have
enough food for consumption.
In most cases, source of labor force in the area is mostly by hiring individuals
outside the family from 10 to 15 persons.

4.4.1.1.6Occurrence of Pests and Diseases

The pests that usually attacked the rice crop include; stem borer, black bug, stem
rot, rats and golden apple snails. Disease occurrences are identified as tungro,
the most destructive disease (virus); sheath blight, bacterial leaf blight and blast.
For corn, pests and diseases are the corn borer, stalk rot and downy mildew. In
time of infestation of these destructive insects, farmers usually applied
commercial insecticides, pesticides and rodenticides. None of them employed
organic means of preventive measures.

4.4.1.1.7Livestock and Poultry

The table below presents the number and major livestock raised by the
households in the barangay. These are: carabao with 123 heads, cattle got 28

Household raising livestock is also determined and enumerated by purok as


shown in the table below. Among the large ruminants raised by the households,
Carabao is the most numbered animal since these are usually used in rice and
corn farming. In fact, 54 households in the barangay own a Carabao however no
information as to its production and breeding level. Swine is the next type of
livestock where 19 households have raised it for fattening and breeding. Other
livestock such as cattle and goat are minimal in number only.

These animals contribute greatly to the farmers in terms of their income and
farming activities. Fattened swine are sold when they reach the marketable
weight and Carabao is used in land cultivation and hauling of farm products. In
terms of market competitiveness, the farmers are still far behind the modern and
value-added means or practices in livestock rising. Most of them merely raise
livestock for household consumption and other domestic purposes and at
backyard level only.

Page | 42

One (1) - Year Social Development & Management Program

Relevant issues and problems experienced by the households in raising livestock


are the financial! Incapacity to buy feeds, lack of technology on raising livestock,
insufficient medicine for animals, and the lack of techniques on modern and
sustainable methods of livestock rising. These factors caused an on and off way
of raising livestock hence greatly affect volume of production.

The table presents the number of households raising poultry by purok. There are
108 households raising poultry chicken in the barangay purposely for meat and
egg production and mostly of native breeds; and eight (8) households raised
ducks. On the other hand, some households also raise cockfighting chicken
which follows the required feeding system and standard fencing, schedule and
quantity.

In poultry production, usual contribution to the farmers is by means of actual cash


earned after harvest and their income is much greater than the backyard raisers,
who simply consume their chicken usually at 1-kilogram live weight more or less
as their direct source of food rather than an income.

In terms of modernization, poultry raising in the barangay needs to be enhanced


to be more competitive. This means that it must have to address some issues
and concerns like updated technology on poultry raising, production financing to
undergo commercial mode of raising and for maximum utilization of local
resources to attain development potentials. Without such interventions, the
barangay could not compete in the market trends.

4.4.1.1.8Occurrence of Pests and Diseases

Common livestock pests affecting small and large animals and poultry include
Page | 43

internal parasites like liver flukes and other types of worms. With regards to
diseases, most prevalent are hog and fowl cholera, diarrhea and other bacterial
and fungal infections. In order to eradicate these pests and diseases. Raisers
apply synthetic medicines as per advice of livestock technicians and at the
owners' initiatives. The LGU Rosario, through the MAO and with the assistance
of Provincial Veterinary Office regularly conduct mass

Page | 44
ROSARIO MANOBO MINING CORPORATION
One (1) - Year Social Development & Management Program

Deworming and vaccination yearly, however, due to limited funds, the program
could not serve the total livestock and poultry population in the barangay. In
addition, there are cases wherein outbreak of viral diseases on poultry occurs
due to lack of proper coordination/information in conducting vaccination among
cock fighting raisers.

Livestock and poultry raising is a potential business that will give the farmers
greater income and benefits. But this should be backed up both by technical and
financial Support from the local government and individual raisers. Since
undertaking this activity is likely possible in the barangay based on the
information, the local government should extend some actions so that local
economy will be boosted thus alleviating economic condition of the households.

4.4.1.1.9Fisheries

Existing rivers and creeks in the barangay are identified with their corresponding
distance from the barangay proper as shown in the table below. Freshwater like
mudfish, tilapia, catfish, carpa and other species are found, though not abundant
in use Creeks and tributary rivers within the barangay.

Marshland area is 6 kilometers from the barangay proper and it is considered as


the communal fishing ground of the people, and one source or fresh water fish of
the barangay. Here the people could go into fishing and could have got
something for household consumption and for business activity: however, the
location of this fishing ground is no longer part of the barangay. Fishing for home
consumption is commonly done during dry season because of low water level
hence making it easy to catch by means of fish net.

4.4.1.1.10 Food Supply and Requirement

Based on per capital consumption for rice at 98 kilograms per person per year
and with the barangay having a total population of 5,512, about 540 tons of ice is
needed per year by the populace. Meanwhile the annual production of palay from
206 hectares planted twice (2) per year at 3 tons per hectares per cropping is
1,236 tons and at 65% milling recovery about 803.4 tons of rice is produced per
year as presented in the table below. Hence, the barangay is surplus in terms of
milled rice which is 263.23 Mt. This volume of supply is commonly brought to
Davao City and other neighboring provinces in as much that farmers directly sell
their produce to the traders/buyers who also provided their farm financing.

Corn, on the other hand, has a production of 9.75 metric tons per annum as
stated in the table below, which is very minimal compared to rice. Most Corn
produce is usually utilized for poultry consumption.

4.4.1.1.11 Agricultural Facilities

The table below shows the different farm machineries, tools and equipment’s
present in the barangay. Firstly, with respect to rice & corn production; there are
only 5 unit’s turtles
Page | 46

One (1) - Year Social Development & Management Program

Tiller and 4 units rice thresher available in the barangay. Rice mill has 2 units,
corn mill 1 unit, corn sheller 1 unit and solar dyer 5 units.

Considering the existing production areas of these crops, it could be assessed


that there is shortage in these facilities especially during peak season. The
barangay is still far behind in terms of farm mechanization which is equally
important factor for agricultural development for intensified production.

There are twelve (12) types of farm tools and equipment that are readily available
at barangay Sta. Cruz. Looking into the existing facilities, pre- and post-harvest
equipment are very minimal against the area planted with rice and corn. Thus,
relevant problem that need to consider in this aspect is the insufficient supply of
farm tools and equipment. Though not all puroks have rice and corn fields but still
it remains a big concern by the LGUs and other development institutions
operating in the area. This is a challenge under the modernization stage
especially in agriculture production.

4.4.1.2Production Support

In terms of agricultural services, production support includes seeds and fertilizers


from government and non-government organization. The local government unit of
Barangay Sta. Cruz provided rodenticides for the rat control program in the
barangay, free vegetable seeds to the farmers and rice seeds subsidy, organic
fertilizers. In 2003, MELAMDEC vegetable seeds, and anti-rabies programs from
DA demonstrated organic farming in the barangay in partnership with the
Municipal, Government of Rosario and Barangay LGU.

4.4.1.3 Market Development

The market system in the barangay is usually done within the barangay during
Market Day (Tabo), but there are products sold outside like rice, corn, banana,
and rubber which are sold in Tagum City, Davao City, Municipality of San
Francisco and other neighboring provinces. Currently, the local market outlet for
commodities is the local buyers Such as rice and corn millers, corn buyers, copra
buyers and sari-sari stores. However, external buyers or "strikers" as people
called are also considered as their market outlet of their products.

The players involved in the market chain in the barangay are the traders,
households and the sari-sari store or local buyers. With this situation, the traders
could have bigger profit after processing the fresh products directly sold by the
farmers from the farm. Then possibly the households could still be the market
outlet of the processed or finished products that is delivered by the traders.
Therefore, problem should necessarily be resolved like absence of community-
driven market system, no standard product pricing (goods and services) by the
LGU and lack of product processing capability of the people.

4.4.1.3.1Credit Facilitation

Vendors and farmers of barangay Sta. Cruz are highly dependent on credit for
their capital and crop production financing. Sources of credit mostly come from
formal financial institution (bank) or informal financiers (usurer and private
individuals), wherein vendors usually sourced out their capital in which payment
is on a daily or weekly basis. Meanwhile, other farmers get their farm financing
from traders and middlemen usually charged with interest range from 10-15% per
month and/or “Pantang” method with 1 sack palay per P 1,000.00 amount
borrowed. It is also an SOP for traders/financers to automatically buy their palay
produced with prices relatively lower than prevailing price 145 or only 11% of the
total households have accessed to credit. However, of all the 17 puroks there are
seven (7) puroks whose households have either no access to credit facility or
they just wanted to avail the services. These credit services are owned and
extended by private entities and a very limited credit extended from the
government agencies. Thus, some problems that need to be prioritized include:
the lack Or Credit extension service from the government and high interest rate
of credit service from the private entities.

4.4.1.4 Research and Development

With regards to research and development, the barangay has no existing formal
research project implemented, except one demonstration farm on Rubber-Based
Farming System under DAR-IFAD which showcases intercropping of rubber,
banana and lanzones.

4.4.1.5 Information Support

Some residents in the barangay are now using cellular phones for their
communication needs; for areas with electricity, television sets are used for
recreation and news updates in puroks with no electricity, people use battery
operated AM/FM Radio. The BLGU also purchased 4 units hand held radio
issued specifically to BPLK's for emergency use.

4.4.2 Commerce and Trade

4.4.2.1Existing Business Establishments

There are plenty business establishments in the barangay. Common


establishments operating in the barangay are eatery/carenderia and sari-sari
store that totals to 72, Motor Mill/Rod Mill, 19; Gold, Silver, Copper, etc. buyer, 14
and Videoke/karaoke, 17.

Table below shows that aside from mentioned establishments, there are other
businesses in the barangay like Agri-Vet Supply, bakeshop, Fish vending,

Barangay Sta. Cruz being known for its gold mining industry has significant
number of gold extraction and processing activities as shown in the table on the
next page; with 33 establishments. Jewelry making is most feasible in the area
since it is a marketing outlet of raw materials like gold and silver. Restaurants are
also remarkable in number as it is found that food business is feasible in the area

4.4.3 Environment and Services Sector

4.4.3.1Forestry

Barangay Sta. Cruz has vast forestland area as per land use data. This area
located in the eastern part is observed to have second growth forest cover since
for quite some time illegal logging became rampant in these areas cutting down
natural grown trees. However, since Potable water source of Rosario is located
specifically at Maputi and within this forestland coverage, the barangay in
coordination with the MLGU take necessary steps to preserve and protect the
watershed area by having constant tree planting handled by the MENRO; and
provided legislation support to strictly prohibit cutting of trees. Some reforestation
activities were also done which involve planting of fast-growing tree species like
falcata, mangium, gemelina, mahogany, rubber and others within these areas.

4.4.3.1 Minerals and Resource Utilization and Management

Aside from agricultural and Agro-industrial areas, Barangay Sta. Cruz has also
mineral resources available like gold and silver. These resources were being
utilized and became alternative source of income of the people. A lot of small-
scale mining operated in the barangay which involve open cut tunnel system of
extracting mineral ore and subsequently these ore are being processed to extract
gold. Gold processing includes ball mill/rod mill which has 44 sites located not in
designated places, some are at the tunnel site and some within the residential
areas. In addition, mini processing plant for gold also exists in the barangay with
8 sites, and the said plants are utilizing cyanide in their processing operation.
These matters greatly affect the general public, as it created water
contaminations of mercury and cyanide that to the extent crops and livestocks
were being affected due to none compliance of proper waste disposal/mitigating
measures. This is aggravated by the laxity in the enforcement of
environmental/mining laws rules & regulations and needs prompt action to be
taken.

4.4.3.3 Solid Waste Management

Most households in the barangay adopt the collect and dump method of waste
disposal. The barangay LGU in coordination with the MENRO now started
implementing the Material Recovery Facility (MRF) wherein some puroks have
constructed said facility. Garbage from households was deposited in their
designated MRE, and the garbage truck of the LGU has scheduled collection
every Thursday. Segregation of degradable and non-degradable materials
however was not actually practiced by the households though constant IEC was
done per purok. On the other hand, the ed municipal dump site is still temporarily
located at Purok Buhisan of Poblacion Rosario.

During the consultation, it was known that elementary education in Barangay Sta.
Cruz as completely established in 1987. In fact, the table shows that there are
four (4) types of building available in the barangay. Each building was
constructed in different years like the TEEP and FVR which were made in 1992;
MARCOS/BLSB on 1969 and PTA Building on 1981. These had been
constructed for various usage such as office and academic classroom, industrial
and home economics, science, library and pre- school academic. These buildings
were acquired through national government budget and are still in good condition
except for one that needs repair.

types of school buildings in the barangay constructed in different years from 1996
to 2006 through DPWH-national government budget. Considering the period of
construction, most units are in good condition but there are some that need
repairs. These buildings are actually used for academic classroom, office,
computer laboratory, science laboratory and home economics.

179 students or 1:30 and 1:60 classroom-pupil ratios. Students are handled by
35 advisory teachers with 1:22 and 1:36 teacher-pupil ratio in different grade
levels. Further, three (3) teachers are assigned in the faculty.

As to the classroom-teacher-pupil ratio, there is a need for additional classrooms


especially for grade 1, 4, 5 and 6; and teachers of the same grade levels in order
to maintain good and quality learning comprehension of the students.

For high school, a total of 13 classrooms are available in the school with 645
students enrolled. Each classroom is occupied with 1:63 to 1:28 ratio of students
handled by thirteen (13) advisory teachers in all year levels. However, each
teacher has managed 188 to 56 students, with thirteen (13) teachers who are
assigned in the faculty. With this information, high school education in the
barangay is still below the ideal range in terms of classroom-teacher-pupil ratio.
Thus, additional classrooms and teachers should be provided to attain quality
education.

594 in year one, 713 in year 2 and 856 in year 3. Comparing the number of
teachers and classrooms to the projected school age population, there is gap of

presented that the highest rate was attained in 2007-2008 school year with 83.69
percent and .0 percent in 2008-2009 as the lowest achievement rate. The high

One (1) - Year Social Development & Management Program

Through Saturday classes and review, remedial tests an intelligence Quotient


(IQ) test of pupils conducted annually. However, this was not sustained thus
decreases the achievement rate especially in latest school year due to
insufficient supply of review materials.

The table below shows that achievement rate of high school students in
Barangay Sta. Cruz is far below the 100% highest rate. It is very clear that the
highest rate is only 52.27 percent in 2004-2005 school year and the lowest rate is
determined in 45.50 percent in school year 2007-2008. But there two school
years which do not have available data as confirmed by the participants during
the consultation.

The type of test conducted to measure the achievement of the pupils is through
the national achievement test (NAT) which is conducted annually. And the reason
for minimal achievement rate is the lack of review materials and absences of the
students. Thus; educational performance of high school students needs to
enhance and is given primary consideration.

that farmers that constitute majority of the residents have low income and
productivity. They cannot afford to buy strong materials for their roof and wall and
some didn't own the lot where their houses were constructed.

As to construction materials of walls, light walling used are dominant with 699
households or 58.7% of the total households found in the barangay. Light walling
materials are made of lumber or "inak-ak", sawali or amakan. These facts may
mean that farmers that constitute majority of the residents have low income and
productivity. They cannot afford to buy strong materials for their roof and wall and
some didn't own the lot where their houses were constructed.

Agusan Del Sur Electric Cooperative (ASELCO) is the leading power used in the
barangay enjoying its service 24 hours a day, except for some power interruption
occurrence when.

There are problems in the transmission and distribution lines. Some puroks are
served by private power facilities from private mining establishment. Puroks 14 to
17 which is far from the barangay proper is dominantly using kerosene as power
source. As to fuel used for cooking, households dominantly utilized firewood. This
is because the area has still a lot of available firewood in its surrounding,
besides, LPG and other similar cooking fuel has relatively higher price that the
households will incur additional cost.

VI. SDMP DEVELOPMENT FRAMEWORK

The SDMP framework is anchored on the principle of sustainable development


and it Is further guided by the vision and aspirations of the host mining
community of RMMC. Since it's the company's first Social Development &
Management Program, the companies together with the community identifies &
develop programs for the socio- economic improvement of the host barangay.

6.1 Development Strategies

The SMDP will have the following development strategies:

1. Information, Communication and Education (ICE) Program

Harmonious relationship is vital in any community undertaking. This is attainable


only if the parties involved will achieve certain degree of transparency and mutual
trust. A continuing an intensive Information, Communication, Education (ICE)
campaigns and consultations will be the norm in carrying out this plan. Regular
community meetings, open discussions and dialogues will be the venue of the
people to express their problems and concerns and for the company and other
stakeholders to relay their intentions and present their issues.

Other forms of information dissemination such as radio programs, flyers, leaflets,


brochures, newsletters and billboards among others will be used to keep the
people informed and aware of what is going on with regards to the development
of the community as well as sharpen their awareness on their roles and
responsibilities towards achieving community development goals.

2. Strengthening Support and Coordination with People's Organization


and Cooperatives

People's organizations and cooperatives have become major partners for


development and RMMC believe that these organizations are the best partners in
achieving the intents and purposes of the SDMP. Supporting existing barangay
POs and cooperatives create an atmosphere of trust between RMMC and a
culture supportive of local enterprise development.

needed for some of the components of this program.

This will be done in order to maximize resources allocation and mobilization.


National Line Agencies especially DA & BFAR, NGOs, and other institutions can
be tapped by RMMC as far as conduct on training needs, livelihood programs
and training, while linkage with NGOs and government agencies can also be
established for project funding and other assistance.

development, livelihood management, and other training in coordination with the
above-mentioned agencies and various stakeholders in the Community. Informal
training will include on-the-job training and apprenticeship.

5. Social Infrastructure

Social infrastructures also form part of SDMP strategy. These infrastructures


provide the necessary framework for the effective and efficient implementation of
the program. The SDMP includes the following components: provision of basic
social services such as water facilities, electric connection (residential and street
lightning); road upgrading and construction; and access and use of medical and
recreational facilities.
