Maynilad Replaces Navotas Fish Port Complex Pipes MEDIA RELEASE Maynilad replaces Navotas Fish Port Complex pipes Maynilad Water Services, Inc. (Maynilad) is spending more than P37 million to replace almost 6 kilometers of pipes in the Navotas Fish Port Complex (NFPC), one of the largest fish ports and fish market complexes in Asia. The investment is expected to increase water availability for the NFPC from only 4 to 5 hours daily to 24 hours a day once it is completed by the first quarter of 2015. The project is also set to improve water pressure in the complex from 5 pounds per square inch (psi) to 30 psi. It takes about 7 psi for water to reach the second floor of a building. Water services for more than 200 households along Lapu-lapu Avenue and R10 in Navotas City are also set to benefit from the project. “It is important to have adequate water in the NFPC especially because it provides a food staple to major markets in Metro Manila,” said Maynilad President and CEO Ricky P. Vargas. To lessen inconvenience for motorists, Maynilad is closely coordinating with the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH), the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA), and the local government of Navotas for the traffic management schemes. All worksites will be fully enclosed by board-up barricades, with appropriate lighting and traffic/warning signs, to help ensure public safety. Maynilad is an agent and contractor of the Metropolitan Waterworks and Sewerage System (MWSS) for the West Zone of the Greater Manila Area, which is composed of the cities of Manila (certain areas), Quezon City (certain areas), Makati (certain areas), Caloocan, Pasay, Parañaque, Las Piñas, Muntinlupa, Valenzuela, Navotas and Malabon—all in Metro Manila; the cities of Cavite, Bacoor and Imus, and the towns of Kawit, Noveleta and Rosario—all in Cavite Province. # # # Date of Release: November 28, 2014 For more information, contact: Patrick Gregorio Jennifer Rufo Head, Commercial & Marketing Head, Stakeholder Communications CORPORATE COMMUNICATIONS Telephone Numbers: 9813333 9813451-52 www.mayniladwater.com.ph Page 1 of 1 .

    COMPREHENSIVE LAND USE PLAN 2016 - 2025 PART 3: SECTORAL PROFILE 3.1. INFRASTRUCTURE, FACILITIES AND UTILITIES 3.1.1. Flood Control Facilities 3.1.1.1. “Bombastik” Pumping Stations Being a narrow strip of land with a relatively flat terrain and with an aggregate shoreline of 12.5 kilometers that is affected by tidal fluctuations, flooding is a common problem in Navotas City. This is aggravated by pollution and siltation of the waterways, encroachment of waterways and drainage right-of-ways by legitimate and informal settlers, as well as improper waste disposal. The perennial city flooding inevitably became a part of everyday living. During a high tide with 1.2 meter elevation, some parts of Navotas experience flooding, especially the low-lying areas along the coast and riverways. As a mitigating measure, the city government - thru the Local Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Office - disseminates information about the heights of tides for a specific month. This results in an increased awareness among the residents on the time and date of occurrence of high tide. During rainy days, flooding reach higher levels. The residents have already adapted to this situation. Those who are well-off are able to install their own preventive measures, such as upgrading their floorings to a higher elevation. During the term of the then Mayor and now Congressman, Tobias M. Tiangco, he conceptualized a project that aims to end the perennial flooding in Navotas. Since Navotas is surrounded by water, he believed that enclosing the city to prevent the entry of water during high tide would solve the floods.

  • Mapping the Eco-Social Construct of Santa Rosa an Emerging City in a Watershed of Opportunities for Development
    Mapping the Eco-Social Construct of Santa Rosa An Emerging City in a Watershed of Opportunities for Development Nathaniel C. Bantayan1 Leah P. Dela Rosa2 Sylvia D. Clemente 2 Maria Magdalene P. Guevarra1 Kyle Pierre R. Israel1 1 Institute of Renewable Natural Resources, College of Forestry and Natural Resources University of the Philippines - Los Baños 2 College of Architecture University of Santo Tomas Abstract The years 1946 to 2020 saw the gradual dwindling of Santa Rosa City, Laguna’s agricultural land, from 96% to 15.4%. Meanwhile, the city’s urbanization catapulted to 84.5% by 2013 from just below 4% in 1946. Under the regional development plan of the Aquino Administration designating Region IV-A, Cavite, Laguna, Batangas, Rizal, and Quezon (CALABARZON) as the industrial hub of the country, and driven by the increased access with the construction of the expressway in the 1980s, Santa Rosa City’s manufacturing industry rose from 746 in 1980 to 5,201 in 2013, a near 700% increase. Today, Santa Rosa City is at the heart of BANTAYAN, ET AL.: MAPPING THE ECO-SOCIAL UNITAS 326 the urbanization and industrialization, topping Metro Manila’s economic growth. The highest population density is concentrated at the shore areas of Laguna Lake, the largest freshwater lake in the Philippines. From an environmental perspective, this is an economic bubble waiting to burst, but the effect to the city’s environmental sustainability is dire: water abstrac- tion at its highest may lead to land subsidence, not to mention water scar- city, which the environmental effects lead to the increased pollution of its catchments, waterways, and the shoreline, and continuous land conversion particularly for housing are imperiling its array of ecosystem services.

  • 9. Metro Manila, Philippines Theresa Audrey O
    9. Metro Manila, Philippines Theresa Audrey O. Esteban and Michael Lindfield 9.1 INTRODUCTION Metro Manila, the National Capital Region of the Philippines, is the seat of government and the most populous region of the Philippines. It covers an area of more than 636 square kilometres and is composed of the City of Manila and 16 other local government units (15 cities and one municipality) (). As the city has grown, the local government structure has led to a polycentric system of highly competitive cities in the metropolitan region. The impact of rapid urbanization on the city has been dramatic. Metro Manila is the centre of culture, tourism, Figure 9.1 Map of Metro Manila the economy, education and the government of the Philippines. Its most populous and largest city in terms of land area is Quezon City, with the centre of business and financial activities in Makati (Photo 9.1). Other commercial areas within the region include Ortigas Centre; Bonifacio Global City; Araneta Centre, Eastwood City and Triangle Park in Quezon City; the Bay City reclamation area; and Alabang in Muntinlupa. Among the 12 defined metropolitan areas in the Philippines, Metro Manila is the most populous.427 It is also the 11th most populous metropolitan area in the world.428 The 2010 census data from the Philippine National Statistics Office show Metro Manila having a population almost 11.85 million, which is equivalent to 13 percent of the population of the Philippines. 429 Metro Manila ranks as the most densely populated of the metropolitan areas in the Philippines.

  • CALL for PROPOSALS Technical Assistance for the Implementation of Community-Based Interventions to Improve Health of the Urban Poor in Quezon City and Navotas
    CALL FOR PROPOSALS Technical Assistance for the Implementation of Community-Based Interventions to Improve Health of the Urban Poor in Quezon City and Navotas 1. Summary The World Health Organization (WHO) Philippines is looking for institution contractual partners for the implementation of community-based interventions to improve health of the urban poor in Quezon City and Navotas, under an Agreement for Performance of Work (APW) contract. The proposals are due by 28 October 2019. 2. Background Urbanization can result to economic growth and social progress, but if improperly managed can increase urban poverty and health inequity. The urban poor are often socially excluded, and face various challenges which include inability to pay for goods & services, lack of social support systems, unsafe living & working conditions, among others. The urban poor is constantly exposed to and suffer from unfavourable social and economic determinants that influence health status and other outcomes. Cities can tap many actors in the urban arena who can make a tremendous impact on people and communities. Community members, including adolescents, can be capacitated and engaged for health-related initiatives. WHO Philippines, in collaboration with the DOH and KOFIH, is implementing a project on “Improving Health of the Urban Poor and Adolescents in Selected Areas of Metro Manila”. The project aims to: (1) Institute sustainable good health governance that leads to tangible health benefits for people in the lowest income groups; (2) Empower local leaders, urban poor communities, and adolescents to develop and implement healthy initiatives; and (3) Improve health-seeking behaviour and healthy practices among the urban poor and adolescents.
