The scope of works of the priority projects consist of 1) rehabilitation and additional works for the drainage facilities and 2) rehabilitation and additional works for the drainage pumping stations. A preliminary design for the drainage facilities is made in this stage. Subsequently, a more detailed rehabilitation plan of the drainage pumping stations is examined with identification of rehabilitation work items by stations for the 12 stations. The result of the above design/study is described in the following. F.2 OBJECTIVE PRIORITY PROJECTS F.2.1 DRAINAGE CHANNEL FACILITIES The priority projects for the drainage channel f acilities identified in the master plan consist of rehabilitation and additional works for drainage channel facilities of estero/creek/canal/drainage main. Locations of objective drainage faciliti es and drainage pumping stations are presented in Figure F. 2.1. The following are the objective drainage facilities. (1) Rehabilitation and Additional Works of Drainage Channel Facilities in North Manila Estero de Sunog Apog - Dredging (Clearing) Blumentritt Interceptor - Declogging of existing interceptor and related works - Construction of additional interceptor by box culvert and remedial works (2) Rehabilitation and Additional Works of Drainage Channel Facilities in South Manila Estero de Tripa de Gallina, PNR Canal and Calatagan Creek I - Dredging (Clearing) Buendia Outfall - Declogging and related works Zobel Roxas Drainage Main - Declogging and construction of additional box culvert Pasong Tamo Drainage Main - Declogging Faraday Drainage Main - Declogging and construction of additional box culvert F - 1 Figure F.2.1 Locations of Priority Projects F - 2 F.2.2 DRAINAGE PUMPING STATIONS Presently there are 15 major drainage pumping stations in the core area. For the objective 12 aged drainage pumping stations identified in the master plan, a further detailed rehabilitation work items of repair and replacement of pump equipment and apparatus by stations will be examined in this stage. Those locations of aged pumping stations are shown in Figure F.2.1. The objective pumping stations will be as follows. - Aviles, At Aviles station, increase of pump capacity of 3m3/s is proposed in connection with the rehabilitation works as an additional work. - Quiapo, - Valencia, - Pandacan, - Paco, - Sta. Clara, - Tripa de Gallina, - Libertad, - Makati, - Binondo, - Escolta and Balete F.2.3 NON-STRUCTURAL AND SUPPORTING MEASURES The following non-structural and supporting measures are incorporated with the priority projects in the drainage improvement.

  • Participatory Governance Institutions for Social Housing in the Philippines: Do Local Housing Boards Matter?
    Philippine Journal of Development Volume 45 (2018) Number 1 Participatory Governance Institutions for Social Housing in the Philippines: Do Local Housing Boards Matter? Marife M. Ballesteros and Jenica A. Ancheta¹ ABSTRACT This study documents the application of participatory governance for social housing in the Philippines through the local housing boards (LHBs). The interest to institutionalize LHBs in local government units (LGUs) has grown mostly in the country’s highly urbanized cities. LHBs are seen to involve communities in the decisionmaking process to bring about inclusive welfare and enhance social housing outcomes. Thus, they have an important role in the adoption of effective social housing policies and programs for the poor. This study shows that LGUs vary in their implementation of LHBs. Many cities created their LHBs only in compliance with the law while some LGUs established their own mainly on paper. These LHBs either become inactive or fail to follow the appropriate representation of people’s organizations and the communities. Other LGUs activate their LHBs only when there is a need to hasten the process of eviction and demolition in informal settlements. The LHBs in these LGUs have a limited role as an institution for participatory governance. On the other hand, social housing policies and projects that cater to the poor are evident among LGUs with functioning LHBs. There are representativeness, transparency, and openness in the local government for the housing needs of the vulnerable sector, resulting in the national government’s provision of budget for the development of inclusive local housing policies and projects. This is why LHBs should be strengthened as a participatory governance institution, which can be done through a legislative act that will empower them 1 Marife M.

  • E.4.4 DRAINAGE CHANNELS (1) Drainage Network Numerous Drainage Channels Exist in the Study Area, and Those Connections Are Very Complicated
    E.4.4 DRAINAGE CHANNELS (1) Drainage Network Numerous drainage channels exist in the study area, and those connections are very complicated. In the present study, totally 74 km in length for esteros/creeks and 35 km in length for drainage mains have been identified based upon the results of previous studies, especially SEDLMM (2000), and the drainage inventory and maps provided by MMDA. The fieldworks have been also conducted to confirm those connections by the Study Team with the help of MMDA. The results have been summarized as schematic diagram of existing drainage network for the North Manila and South Manila as shown in Figures E.4.11 and E.4.12, respectively. The figures also show the definition of the start and end points of each estero/creek and drainage main. Drainage channels have been further divided to channel sections as shown in Figure E.4.13. Figure E.4.11 Schematic Diagram of Drainage Network in North Manila E - 55 Note: The boundary between S01_01 and S01_02 is quite unclear. The stormwater collected through SE13, SE17, SE16, SD12 may be drained by SP05(Libertad Pumping Station). Figure E.4.12 Schematic Diagram of Drainage Network in South Manila E - 56 (2) Dimensions of Drainage Channels 1) Estero / Creek There are 20 esteros/creeks in North Manila and 22 esteros/creeks in South Manila. Among those, longitudinal and cross-sectional profiles of 30 esteros/creeks were surveyed in 2000 in the course of SEDLMM. In the present study, survey on most of the remained esteros/creeks has been conducted supplementary.
