    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.

    Evaluating the Seismic Hazards in Metro Manila, Philippines

    EVALUATING THE SEISMIC HAZARDS IN METRO MANILA, PHILIPPINES Ivan Wong1, Timothy Dawson2, and Mark Dober3 1 Principal Seismologist/Vice President, Seismic Hazards Group, URS Corporation, Oakland, California, USA 2 Project Seismic Geologist, Seismic Hazards Group, URS Corporation, Oakland, California, USA 3 Senior Staff Seismologist, Seismic Hazards Group, URS Corporation, Oakland, California, USA Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT: We have performed site-specific probabilistic seismic hazard analyses (PSHA) for four sites in the Manila metropolitan area. The Philippine Islands lie within a broad zone of deformation between the subducting Eurasian and Philippine Sea Plate. This deformation is manifested by a high level of seismicity, faulting, and volcanism. The Philippines fault zone is a major left-lateral strike-slip fault that remains offshore east of Manila. The Marikina Valley fault system (MVFS) is the closest active fault to Manila and represents the most likely near-field source of large damaging earthquakes. The largest earthquake that has struck Manila historically, surface wave magnitude (MS) 7.5, occurred in 1645. Manila has experienced other historical damaging earthquakes numerous times. We have included 14 crustal faults, and the Manila Trench, Philippines Trench, and East Luzon Trough subduction zones (both megathrusts and Wadati-Benioff zones) in our seismic source model. We also have accounted for background crustal seismicity through the use of an areal source zone and Gaussian smoothing. Very little paleoseismic data is available for crustal faults in the Philippines including the MVFS so we have included a large amount of epistemic uncertainty in the characterization of these faults using logic trees. New empirical ground motion predictive equations were used in the PSHA.

NAIA is located approx. 10 km from the business center of Metro Manila, and is a gateway airport in the Philippines. NAIA handled approx. 34 million passengers consisting of 18 million domestic and 16 million international passengers in 2014. Also NAIA handled approx. 266 thousand aircraft movements consisting of 143 thousand domestic and 94 thousand international flights. CRK is located approx. 90 km to the northwest from the center of Metro Manila in the province of Pampanga. CRK handled 1.5 million passengers per annum in 2012, however, currently is handling less than 1 million passengers per annum, due to the fact that Emirate and Air Asia stopped their operations in CRK. As for the aircraft movements, CRK handled 26 thousand aircraft movements consisting of 1 thousand domestic and 6 thousand international flights and 20 thousand of general aviation in 2014.
