This Indigenous Peoples Plan (IPP) intends to address the indigenous peoples’(IPs) concerns/ issues on the proposed improvement of Mainit Communal Irrigation System (CIS) at Barangay Mainit, Municipality of Bontoc, Mt. Province. As one of the projects under the Integrated Natural Resources and Environmental Management Project (INREMP), the subproject will rehabilitate two (2) existing irrigation canals with a length of 2.1 km and an irrigable area of 36 ha. The subproject will be implemented by the Local Government Unit (LGU) of Bontoc with an estimated amount of PhP 8,522,000.00 for 180 calendar days. 2. The subproject is clustered into the diversion structure, and canalization and canal structures. The scope of works includes four (4) major items: common earth excavation, reinforced concrete, grouted riprap, and concrete works. However, the LGU of Bontoc has requested a variation order to install additional grouted ripraps in various sections. This will create stability of the completed canal lining and alongside slopes at station 0+198 – station 0+206, and station 1+227 – station 1+304. 3. The subproject requested variation order is a 10.0% increase amounting to PhP 850,727.80. Additional days considering works within the critical path will be 10 calendar days with a revised contract duration of 190 calendar days. The variation of works has no involuntary resettlement impacts since it is just following its original
