PLANS AND PROGRAMS OF BASIN CONTROL OFFICE RELATIVE TO WATER RESOURCES MANAGEMENT AND RIVER BASIN MANAGEMENT FUNCTIONS

RIVER BASIN CONTROL OFFICE (RBCO)

BASED ON THE E.O. 510 AND THE APPROVED INTEGRATED RIVER BASIN DEVELOPMENT AND MANAGEMENT MASTER PLAN

‰Develop a National Master Plan for Flood Control by Integrating the various Existing River Basin Projjj ects and developing additional plan components as neededneeded.. ‰Rationalize and prioritize reforestation in watersheds

‰Develop aaMasterMasterPlan on Integrated River Basin Management and Development

‰Act as water body that shall coordinate all government projects within the river basins ‰IIlmplement water--rerelltdated projects such as river rehabilitation, lake management, groundwater management, and other water resources Management and development TEN POINT AGENDA TO BEAT THE ODDS UNDER THE ARROYO ADMINISTRATION:

ELECTRICITY AND WATER FOR ALL BARANGAYS

yAGENDA 2: Manage the Major River Basins to generate water resources that are free from contamination, provide more economic opportunities, and mitigate flooding MEDIUM TERM PHILIPPINE DEVELOPMENT PLAN (MTPDP) (2004-2010)

INTEGRATEDRiver Basin is defined as an area of land that WATERdrains water, sediment and dissolved materials to a RESOURCEScommon outlet at some pgpoint along the a river or MANAGEMENTstream channel. MODELThe term IN THE river basin is used synonymously with :watershed in American usage and with catchment basin in other countries. THE TIGUMIn the Philippines- , river basin is defined as AGANANwatershed with land area greater than 1,000 square kilometers. Management includes the land and the RIVERcoastal reach of the basin.
