In the present study, levels of Pb, Hg and Cd; relationships with size; and seasonal variation in six aquaculture commodities mud crab, Scylla serrata; milkfish,Chanos chanos; green mussel, Perna viridis; oyster, Crassostrea iridalei; shrimp, Penaeus spp.; and tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus from Manila Bay fish landing sites were determined. Homogenized flesh samples were subjected to microwave-assisted digestion in a mixed solution of nitric acid and hydrogen peroxide before analysis by Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer. All commodities passed the regulatory limit set by Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources Fisheries Administrative Order 210s 2001 and European Commission 1881/2006 for Pb and Cd. In contrary, 2.04% O. niloticus from Hagonoy, Bulacan and Navotas City and 5.00% Penaeus spp. from Guagua, Pampanga and Obando, Bulacan exceeded the limit for Hg. Significant negative relationships were found between Cd concentration and fish size inC. chanos and P. viridis, while significant positive correlations were observed between Pb and fish length in O. niloticus and S. serrata; Hg and fish length in P. viridis; and Cd and fish weight in Penaeus spp. Aquaculture commodities were observed to have a significantly higher level of accumulation during the wet season. Results indicate that metal concentration varies among aquaculture commodities, landing sites, and season of catch. Thus, there is a need for risk assessment and regular monitoring for the said commodities.

Information has recently becn received from various sources to the effect that, through agents and printed circulars, the statement is being circulated that the Bacteriol. physiolog. Institut (Piorkowski Laboratories), Berlin, Germany, has been licensed by the Treasury Department for the importation and sale in interstate traffic of "turtle tuberculin." These statements seem to emanate from so- called Piorkowski Laboratories, located, or represented as about to be located, in various cities in this country. This statement is contrary to fact. After an inspection of the establishment by a representative of the Treasury Department and an examination of samples of the products at the Hygienic Labora- tory of the Public I-lealth Service, the Bacteriol. physiolog. Institut (Piorkowski Laboratories), Berlin, Germany, was refused a license by the Treasury Department for the importation and sale of their products in interstate traffic. Under the act approved July 1, 1902, regulating the sale of viruses, serums, toxins, and analogous products in interstate traffic, such preparations applicable to the prevention an(d cure of diseases of man may be imported without license, provi(led they are not sold or intended for sale but for scientific experiments. The above-mentioned act requires that each package of virus, seruni, toxin, antitoxin, or analogous product must be plainly marked- with the proper name of the article contained therein, and the name, address, and license number of the manufacturer. Since this provision is strictly enforced, no difficulty should be experienced by anyone in determining whether a particular product has been propagated in a licensed establishment.

    Philippines Pampanga Delta Development Project, Flood Control Component (1) External Evaluator: Taro Tsubugo Field Survey: November 2004 1. Project Profile and Japan’s ODA Loan Baguio Manila Project site Cebu City Philippines Davao Project site location map A newly-developed dike road 1.1 Background The Philippines experiences severe damages from flooding and landslides caused by tropical storms. Although the government attaches importance to flood control projects, constraint on the fiscal budget have hampered the implementation of these projects. The lower basin of the Pampanga River is one of the areas most frequently affected by flooding. In the Pampanga Delta, which is consisted of swampy lowland and the mouth areas of the Pampanga River, typhoons frequently resulted in flooding and caused considerable damage to the farming and fishing industry and to public and private property. With the delta being at 0-9m above sea level, the Pampanga River has limited flow capacity. Flood control projects undertaken on the Pampanga River can date back to 1939. As the development potential (such as aquaculture) of the lower basin areas drew attentions in more recent years, the necessity of flood controls at the west of Sulipan, in particular, had increased. 1.2 Objectives This project’s objective was to enhance flood controls on the lower basins of the Pampanga River in Central Luzon, an area prone to perennial flooding, by implementing river improvement works, thereby contributing to improvements in living standards and to regional economic growth. 1.3 Borrower/Executing Agency Government of the Philippine Republic/Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) 1 1.4 Outline of Loan Agreement Loan Amount/Disbursed Amount 8,634 million yen/7,537 million yen Exchange of Notes/Loan Agreement October 1989/February 1990 Terms and Conditions Interest Rate 2.7% Repayment Date (Grace Period) 30 years (10 years) Procurement General untied (Consultant component: partially untied) Final Disbursement Date December 2001 Contractors Kawasho Corporation, Hanil Development Co., Ltd.

    INCEPTION WORKSHOP FOR SOC DEVELOPMENT AND IMPLEMENTATION IN PAMPANGA CAPAMPANGAN ISLAND RESTAURANT, SAN FERNANDO CITY, PAMPANGA 29 NOVEMBER 2012 WORKSHOP REPORT 1. The inception workshop for the development and implementation of the SOC reporting system in Pampanga was conducted on 29 November 2012 at Capampangan Island Restaurant in San Fernando City, Pampanga. The workshop specifically aimed to: 1) provide an overview of the ICM framework and process and update the members of the TWG on ICM on the progress made on the development of ICM program in Pampanga; 2) discuss the benefits of SOC in determining baseline conditions and priorities that can be addressed in the ICM program; 3) discuss the processes of establishing the reporting system and development of SOC baseline report; 4) clarify the roles and responsibilities of the SOC Task Team, and 4) show how the SOC reporting is linked to subsequent activities of the ICM program. 2. The workshop was attended by representatives from 7 municipal LGUs (San Luis, Porac, Sasmuan, Minalin, Apalit, Lubao and Florida Blanca), provincial (PHO, PEO and PG-ENRO) and national government agencies (DENR Region 3, PENRO, BFAR, DPWH and DILG). The list of participants is given in Annex 1. 3. The expected outputs from the workshop included: 1) preliminary assessment of data availability and data sources based on the requirements of the SOC, and 2) action plan for the development of SOC baseline report for Pampanga. The programme of activities, including details of the workshop is given in Annex 2. 4. The highlights of the workshop, including required actions are summarized below.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The owing explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.
