Core project outcomes and outputs: the development and application of quantitative modeling approaches: to estimate and map present day contributions of different watershed based nutrient sources to coastal nutrient loading and their effects; to indicate when nutrient over-enrichment problem areas are likely to occur; and to estimate the magnitude of expected effects of further nutrient loading on coastal systems under a range of scenarios the systematic analysis of available scientific, technological and policy options for managing nutrient over-enrichment impacts in the coastal zone from key nutrient source sectors such as agriculture, wastewater and aquaculture, and their bringing together an overall Policy Tool Box the application of the modeling analysis to assess the likely impact and overall cost effectiveness of the various policy options etc brought together in the Tool Box, so that resource managers have a means to determine which investments and decisions they can better make in addressing root causes of coastal over-enrichment through nutrient reduction strategies the application of this approach in the Manila Bay watershed with a view to helping deliver the key tangible outcome of the project – the development of stakeholder owned, cost-effective and policy relevant nutrient reduction strategies (containing relevant stress reduction and environmental quality indicators), which can be mainstreamed into broader planning a fully established global partnership on nutrient management to provide a necessary stimulus and framework for the effective development, replication, up-scaling and sharing of these key outcomes.

Republic of the Philippines Province of Cavite Office of the Governor Trece Martires City Message It is with pride that I present the State of the Coasts of the Province of Cavite (2002–2015). This work is a product of the diligent and careful labor of our tireless personnel in the Provincial Government of Cavite, and a testament to the collective efforts the government and the various sectors in the community have exerted to protect and conserve our coasts. Cavite has become a center of industrial development in the country, primarily due to its proximity to the nation’s capital and its robust human resources. With that, we have consistently maintained a commitment not only in fostering investments but also in ensuring that the progress does not come at the cost of the environment. As we recognize the importance of coastal conservation and the invaluable role our waters play in the local economy, we have always made environmental protection a priority in leading the province. Our Provincial Development and Physical Framework Plan provides policies on the proper use of land and the environment, while the Integrated Coastal Management Division of our environment office remains hard at work to study, evaluate, and implement programs for the efficient management and protection of our coasts. Through this document, we have gained significant insights on the work we have done so far and the work yet to be done in order to ensure that the next generations of Caviteños benefit from our natural resources. The job to ensure sustainable development, particularly in our coastal areas, remains a formidable one, and we, in the provincial government, have nothing less than passion to meet this challenge head on. We are grateful to have the Partnerships in Environmental Management for the Seas of East Asia (PEMSEA) for guiding us throughout the task of protecting our seas. With our strong commitment to this mission, the dedication of our officers and PEMSEA’s continuous support, we are confident that the State of the Coasts of the Province of Cavite will only continue to progress in the years to come. ATTY. JESUS CRISPIN REMULLA Governor iii Global Programme of Action for the Protection of the Marine Environment from Land-Based Activities United Nations Environment Programme Message On behalf of the Global Programme of Action for the Protection of the Marine Environment from Land-Based Activities and the United Nations Environment Programme, we welcome the publication of the ‘State of the Coasts of Cavite Province’, a culmination of an engaging participatory process with a view to enhancing sustainable development and coastal resource conservation. The Global Programme of Action is indeed happy to have been associated with the efforts of the Provincial Government of Cavite and Partnerships in Environmental Management for the Seas of East Asia (PEMSEA) that has placed land-based marine pollution and its impacts at the center of coastal conservation and developmental issues. The Global Programme of Action is the only global intergovernmental mechanism directly addressing the connectivity between terrestrial, freshwater, coastal and marine ecosystems, and has supported countries across the globe in combatting marine pollution through the conduct of specific assessments, implementation of investments, development of policy, building capacity and raising awareness. As the world’s population continues to grow, the issues of pollution of the marine environment and damages to ecosystems and the services they provide, are expected to escalate if corrective concrete actions are not taken. However, innovative solutions are being developed across many levels to address land-based pollution and there has been emerging leadership to address the issue from private sector to governments to community-based organizations. With commitment to the Sustainable Development Goals, preservation of the integrity of coastal resources through the lens of pollution abatement will mean a close nexus in meeting targets under Goal 6 on maintaining the quality of freshwater, and under Goal 14 on reducing marine pollution. The commitment has been amplified in the outcome of the United Nations Conference to Support the Implementation of Sustainable Development Goal
