Beside the distribution of WAFS products it is used for broadcasting OPMET data. Basis for the data distribution via ISCS is the FASID Table MET 2A. 1.2 ISCS has the task to provide all necessary or requested weather data to aviation users so that SADIS can be considered as a single source of data for flight planning purposes. 1.3 ISCS is a dedicated ICAO system, regulated and controlled under ICAO standards and recommended practices. It forms part of the Aeronautical Fixed Services (AFS) to ensure that aviation data are distributed without conflict and with the appropriate priority. 2 Discussion 2.1 Since the operational start of ISCS many airlines are linked (directly or indirectly) to ISCS as a primary and single source of weather data and products for aviation.. Data like scheduled and non-scheduled OPMET data are depending on their availability and the user requirements. 2.2 The requirements for OPMET data described in Annex 1 of the SUG have been revised several times over the last years.

GANTONG/BROOKE’S POINT 2010 GEO-TAGGED REPORT” MINING THREATHS TO WATERSHEDS, CORE ZONES AND TO THE ANCESTRAL DOMAIN OF ISOLATED INDIGENOUS COMMUNITIES, PALAWAN ISLAND (THE PHILIPPINES) A joint field assessment of ALDAW (Ancestral Land/Domain Watch) and The Centre for Biocultural Diversity (CBCD) of the University of Kent (UK) Between the 12th and 19th of July 2009, a joined ALDAW/CBCD Mission1 traveled to Brooke’s Point Municipality (Palawan) to carry out field reconnaissance and audio-visual documentation of the mountainous areas laying on the eastern side of the Gantong range, where the source of the Linau river (property of barangay Ipilan) is found. The province of Palawan is part of the “Man and Biosphere Reserve” program of UNESCO and hosts 49 animals and 56 botanical species found in the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species. The Gantong range is endowed with the same richness of biological diversity and endemism found in the recently proclaimed Mt. Mantalingahan Protected Area, the best recognized biodiversity hot spot in southern Palawan. A study commissioned by Conservation International-Philippines reveals that several endangered species listed by IUCN (The World Conservation Union) are found around the Mantalingahan Range. 1 The mission was composed by Dr. Dario Novellino PhD. (Anthropologist of the CBCD) and Visiting Research Associate of the Institute of Philippine Culture (IPC) of the Ateneo de Manila University, Mr. Julio Cusurichi Palacios (an indigenous advocate from Peru, and winner of the 2007 Goldman Prize), Mr. Artiso Mandawa (member of the National Anti-Poverty Commission and national campaign coordinator of ALDAW), Mr.

    1.1 Brief History of the Municipality Bataraza Is Named After a Locally

    Municipal Comprehensive Land Use Plan, 2009 – 2018 Municipality of Bataraza, Palawan I. GENERAL INFORMATION 1.1 Brief History of the Municipality Bataraza is named after a locally influential Muslim Chieftain, Datu Bataraza Narrazid who was the father of the town's first mayor, Datu Sapiodin Narrazid. Datu Sapiodin Narrazid was a former mayor of the municipality of Brooke’s Point, the mother municipality of Bataraza. The municipality of Bataraza was created on June 18, 1961 by virtue of Republic Act 3425. However, it officially functioned as an independent municipality on January 1, 1964 and established its seat of municipal government in barangay Tarusan by virtue of a municipal resolution with concurrence from the provincial board. During the term of Mayor Hadjes P. Asgali in 1971, the seat of municipal government was transferred to barangay Marangas which was the official municipal site as stipulated in RA 3425. During that period, big haciendas started various agricultural activities and brought in farm laborers recruited from other parts of the country. Modern agricultural technologies were introduced and the government provided irrigation and post harvest facilities. This increased rice production areas and yield of the municipality which eventually make Bataraza as one of the rice granaries of Southern Palawan. Likewise, the municipality is endowed with large mineral deposits. Rio Tuba Nickel Mining Corporation (RTNMC) is one of the pioneer mining companies that explore and utilize the mineral deposits of the municipality. 1.2 Human Resource 1.2.1 Population Distibution From 2000 to 2007 the population of Bataraza rose from 41,230 to 53,430, indicating a growth rate of 3.69 percent.

Together with a summary of historical museum records, our data document the occurrence of 55 species of amphibians and reptiles in this small island group.

The Philippines is a consumer, source, and transit point for IWT, threatening endemic species populations, economic development, and biodiversity. The country has been a party to the Convention on Biological Diversity since 1992. The value of IWT in the Philippines is estimated at ₱50 billion a year (roughly equivalent to $1billion), which includes the market value of wildlife and its resources, their ecological role and value, damage to habitats incurred during poaching, and loss in potential
