Chapter 5 Water Level Fluctuation in Laguna Lake During Flood in Pasig-Marikina River The Republic of the Philippines Data Collection Survey on Flood Management in Metro Manila CHAPTER 5 WATER LEVEL FLUCTUATION IN LAGUNA LAKE DURING FLOOD IN PASIG-MARIKINA RIVER In order to examine the water level fluctuation of Laguna Lake, and validity of the flood management measures, related data is collected and analyzed such as flow regime of the water fluctuation data of Laguna Lake and both Manggahan Floodway and Napindan Channel during the floods, and the water level fluctuation analysis model of Laguna Lake is built based on the water level fluctuation characteristic of Laguna Lake as follows. 5.1 Characteristics of Water Level Fluctuation of Laguna Lake 5.1.1 Available Data The available data regarding water level of Laguna Lake, rainfall in the basin, inflow discharge to Laguna Lake and flow regimes of Manggahan Floodway and Napindan Channel during floods (occurrence of reverse flow to/from Laguna Lake) are summarized in Table 5.1, Table 5.2, Figure 5.1 and Figure 5.2.

Water level of Laguna Lake becomes the lowest in the end of dry season in April or May and becomes the highest in late rainy season in September to January. (Refer to Figure 5.3) The average annual lowest and highest water levels are EL. 10.8m and EL. 12.4m, respectively. The average annual lowest water level is almost same as the mean sea level (MSL) of Manila Bay. It means that sea water intrusion to Laguna Lake occurs when high tide in the end of dry season.

The hourly fluctuations are shown in Figure 5.4 and 5.5 and the fluctuations of daily mean water level is shown in Figure 5.6 and 5.7. It is noted that the positive number of difference means that water level of Angono is higher. Hourly hydrograph in 2004 in which two floods were occurred by the tropical cyclone Wennie in August and the typhoon Yoyong in December is analyzed. During flooding stage, water level of Rosario JS is more sensitive and always higher than Laguna Lake. It is expected that natural discharge to Laguna Lake through Manggahan Floodway always occurs during floods. On the other hand, clear correlation cannot be found between the water levels of Napindan JS and Laguna Lake. It is judged that natural diversion from Pasig River to Laguna Lake through Napindan Channel does not always occur. Using daily mean water level, this tendency is more emphasized. Since the hourly water level data of Typhoon Ondoy and Typhoon Pepeng are not available, calculation results using 2009 data is not utilized.

    Formulation of an Integrated River Basin Management and Development Master Plan for Marikina River Basin VOLUME 1: EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1 INTRODUCTION The Philippines, through RBCO-DENR had defined 20 major river basins spread all over the country. These basins are defined as major because of their importance, serving as lifeblood and driver of the economy of communities inside and outside the basins. One of these river basins is the Marikina River Basin (Figure 1). Figure 1 Marikina River Basin Map 1 | P a g e Formulation of an Integrated River Basin Management and Development Master Plan for Marikina River Basin VOLUME 1: EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Marikina River Basin is currently not in its best of condition. Just like other river basins of the Philippines, MRB is faced with problems. These include: a) rapid urban development and rapid increase in population and the consequent excessive and indiscriminate discharge of pollutants and wastes which are; b) Improper land use management and increase in conflicts over land uses and allocation; c) Rapidly depleting water resources and consequent conflicts over water use and allocation; and e) lack of capacity and resources of stakeholders and responsible organizations to pursue appropriate developmental solutions. The consequence of the confluence of the above problems is the decline in the ability of the river basin to provide the goods and services it should ideally provide if it were in desirable state or condition. This is further specifically manifested in its lack of ability to provide the service of preventing or reducing floods in the lower catchments of the basin. There is rising trend in occurrence of floods, water pollution and water induced disasters within and in the lower catchments of the basin.

  • Laguna Lake, the Philippines: Industrial Contamination Hotspots
    Laguna Lake, The Philippines: industrial contamination hotspots Iryna Labunska, Kevin Brigden, Paul Johnston Greenpeace Research Laboratories Technical Note 06/2011 June 2011 1. Introduction Contamination of natural water resources by discharges from the industrial sector in the Philippines continues to be a significant problem. In 2007, Greenpeace launched the Water Patrol to document the impact of water pollution on local communities in the Philippines. Within the framework of this project, several industrial sites located around Laguna Lake were visited in July 2010. During these visits, samples of wastewater discharges into creeks and tributaries of Laguna Lake and corresponding sediment or soil samples were collected. The sites which were chosen for investigation in this study were those accommodating potentially polluting facilities in the area. The selection of the facilities was based on the following criteria: facility operations were thought to involve the use of toxic chemicals; the facility discharged wastewater directly into Laguna Lake or one of its tributaries; in some cases, the facility had been previously identified by government agencies as a polluting industry and listed in the black or red lists by the Laguna Lake Development Authority or the Department of Environment and Natural Resources. Four facilities located to the south-east of Laguna Lake were targeted in the current study: Mayer Textile; Philippine Industrial Sealants and Coatings Corporation (PIS); TNC Chemicals; Carmelray 1 Industrial Park. Wastewater is discharged from these facilities into the San Juan River and the San Cristobal River. Two other target facilities were located to the north of Laguna Lake - Hansson Papers and Litton Mills.

    Journal of Advanced College of Engineering and Management, Vol. 3, 2017 URBANIZATION AND RELATED ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES OF METRO MANILA Ram Krishna Regmi Environment and Resource Management Consultant, Kathmandu, Nepal Email Address: [email protected] __________________________________________________________________________________ Abstract Due to rapid urbanization, Metro Manila is facing many environmental challenges with its continuous accelerating urban growth rate. According to 2010 census of population Metro Manila accounts about one-third of the total urban population and about 13% of the total national population of Philippines.The impact of urban growth of the Metro Manila to its urban environment relating on demography, solid wastes problem and problems in water bodies as well as air pollution and greenhouse gas emissionis emphasized here in this study.The flood prone areas within the Metro Manila is about 31%, most of the risk areas located along creeks, river banks or coastal areas.Metro Manila produces total garbage equivalent to 25% of the national waste generation in which about 17% is paper wastes and about 16% are plastics. In terms of water quality classification the upper reaches of the Marikina River is of Class A, but all remaining river systems are of Class C. Accordingly, the classification of Manila Bay is of Class SB. Similarly, the quality of ambient air of the Metro Manila is also poor. Using 2010 as base year, the major contributor to greenhouse gas is from vehicular emissions followed by the stationary sources. An urgent need is felt to incorporate environmental issues into planning its urban area to reduce the risks of further environmental degradation. Keywords: Metro Manila; urbanization; environmental issues; solid wastes;water quality; air pollution _________________________________________________________________________________ 1.

  • 2018 Calabarzon Regional Development Report
    2018 CALABARZON REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT REPORT Foreword HON. HERMILANDO I. MANDANAS RDC Chairperson The Calabarzon Regional Development Report (RDR) tracks the region’s socio-economic performance against the targets of the Calabarzon Regional Development Plan 2017-2022. This report highlights the role of government policies, programs and projects in meeting the development targets and outcomes in the Results Matrices of the RDP. Taking off from the assessment of the performance of the different sectors, the RDR also includes a spatial perspective on development across the region to improve targeting of interventions where it is most needed or suitable. We recognize not just the contributions made by national government agencies, regional line agencies, state universities and colleges, local government units but also civil society organizations in achieving our region’s vision to be a highly liveable and globally competitive industrial region. Our concerted effort is necessary to make our vision become a reality. The RDR, as an important input in carrying out the RDC’s functions on policy formulation and investment programming, is worth emphasizing. The 2018 RDR should guide all of us in the public and private sector in continuously delivering quality goods and services to the public and working together towards achieving AmBisyon Natin 2040 for a Matatag, Maginhawa, at Panatag na buhay para sa lahat ng Pilipino. 2018 Regional Development Report i TABLE OF CONTENTS Page No. Foreword i Table of Contents ii List of Tables iv List of Figures
