    Formulation of an Integrated River Basin Management and Development Master Plan for Marikina River Basin VOLUME 1: EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1 INTRODUCTION The Philippines, through RBCO-DENR had defined 20 major river basins spread all over the country. These basins are defined as major because of their importance, serving as lifeblood and driver of the economy of communities inside and outside the basins. One of these river basins is the Marikina River Basin (Figure 1). Figure 1 Marikina River Basin Map 1 | P a g e Formulation of an Integrated River Basin Management and Development Master Plan for Marikina River Basin VOLUME 1: EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Marikina River Basin is currently not in its best of condition. Just like other river basins of the Philippines, MRB is faced with problems. These include: a) rapid urban development and rapid increase in population and the consequent excessive and indiscriminate discharge of pollutants and wastes which are; b) Improper land use management and increase in conflicts over land uses and allocation; c) Rapidly depleting water resources and consequent conflicts over water use and allocation; and e) lack of capacity and resources of stakeholders and responsible organizations to pursue appropriate developmental solutions. The consequence of the confluence of the above problems is the decline in the ability of the river basin to provide the goods and services it should ideally provide if it were in desirable state or condition. This is further specifically manifested in its lack of ability to provide the service of preventing or reducing floods in the lower catchments of the basin. There is rising trend in occurrence of floods, water pollution and water induced disasters within and in the lower catchments of the basin.

  • The Human Impact of Floods Towards Mega Dike Effectiveness
    International Journal of Disaster Recovery and Business Continuity Vol.7 (2016), pp.1-12 http://dx.doi.org/10.14257/ijdrbc.2016.7.01 The Human Impact of Floods towards Mega Dike Effectiveness Tomas U. Ganiron Jr IPENZ, New Zealand Qassim University, College of Architecture, Buraidah City [email protected] Abstract Flooding caused by typhoon inflicted serious damage in the Philippines River and the incremental high lake stage, respectively. The study is based on the perception of people in Taguig City about floods and flood control, the existing Pampanga mega dike and specifically on the construction of Taguig City mega dike along the Laguna Lake. The aim of the study is to present the human impact of floods and its resources of constructing a mega dike and to compare the effectiveness of the mega dikes in Pampanga and Taguig City. Keywords: Dike, flood control, flooding, floodway, mega dike 1. Introduction The Municipality of Taguig City is one of the low-lying areas along the Shore of Laguna Lake with an average elevation of 11.30 meters. The water surface elevation of Laguna Lake from April to December rises up from elevation 10.72 meters to elevation 12.90 meters, in which cased the said areas will always be subjected to flooding especially during the months of October to December [1,2]. Rising of water surface elevation of Laguna Lake is due to thirteen (13) major tributary rivers and more than 100 (minor creeks) at the watershed areas of the lake along the area of Rizal. Laguna, Batangas and Quezon Province.

  • Environmental Mutagenesis. Water Studies
    Trans. Nat. Acad. Science & Tech. (Phils.) 1988: 1 0: 163-173 ENVIRONMENTAL MUTAGENESIS: WATER STUDIES Clara Y. Iim-Sylianco and Virginia F. lnefinada Institute of Chemistry University of the Philippines Diliman, Quezon City ABSTRACT The "Blue Cotton" method was used to separate mutagens from water samples from rivers �nd esteros around Manila. The Rec assay was used to deter­ mined direct DNA damaging capacity. Ames test was employed to study muta­ genicity potential before metabolic activation. Genetoxicity after metabolic acti­ vation was determined by the Host-mediated assay while chromosome breaking effects were investigated using the micronucleus test. Water samples from Pasig river, Las Pinas river, Marikina river, Navotas river, and Zapote river did not possess direct DNA damaging potentiaL These did not exhibit mutagenic activity before and after metabolic activation. These did not possess chromosome breaking effects. Water samples from Malabon river, (near Federico St., Isla de Cocoma), Paranaque river (across MIA road), ·san Juan river (across P. Sanch�z St.) and Taguig river (along Gen. Luna St., Sta. Ana, Peteros) were mutagenic before metabolic activation. However, the mutagenicity of the water samples from Paranaque and Taguig rivers disappeared after metabolic activation. Water samples from Malabon river and San Juan river were genotoxic before and after metabolic activation. None of the river water. samples around Manila exhibited chromosome breaking effects. Water samples frm 20 esteros did not exhibit direct DNA damag­ ing effects and were not mutagenic before and after metabolic activation. How­ ever, chromosome breaking effects were observed from water samples of Estero de Magdalena, Estero de Uli-Uli, Estero de Tripa de Galina and estero de San Lazaro.

    Environmental and Public Disclosure Authorized Social Impact Assessment (ESIA) – EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Public Disclosure Authorized Project Name: Metro Manila Flood Management Public Disclosure Authorized Project Public Disclosure Authorized May 1, 2017 Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (ESIA) EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Metro Manila Flood Management Project Prepared by: Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) And Metro Manila Development Authority (MMDA) May 1, 2017 Environmental and Social Impact Assessment Executive Summary Metro Manila Flood Management Project EXECUTIVE SUMMARY INTRODUCTION i. Metro Manila, the center of economy and trade in the Philippines and home to about 15 million people, has suffered recurrent flooding resulting in adverse consequences to people’s lives and the economy. The effects of a changing climate, an increased frequency of stronger typhoons and storm rainfall, coupled with sea level rise, leads to a higher level of flood risk to Metro Manila. In 2009, Typhoon “Ondoy” (internationally named “Ketsana”) caused substantial damage and losses, which according to the Post Disaster Needs Assessment (PDNA) was equivalent to about 2.7 percent of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP). Normal business operations were hampered by access problems, power and water shortages, damaged machinery, and absent employees. Flooding has both short and long term effects on jobs, the economy and livelihoods. ii. The Government of the Philippines, with the technical and financial support from the World Bank, prepared a Flood Management Master Plan for the Greater Metro Manila Area. The plan, approved by the National Economic and Development Authority (NEDA) Board on September 4, 2012, sets out priority structural and non-structural measures to facilitate sustainable flood management in the Metro Manila area.

  • Pateros River
    PATEROS RIVER Research proposal Fenna den Hartog Lisa van Loon Human Technology 2016 Kenniscentrum Noorderruimte Interncoordinator: Floris Boogaard Lecturer: Maria Prins Pagina 0 van 45 OCCASSION Pagina 1 van 45 1 Occasion Research is being conducted in response to the water pollution problem in Pateros, Manila. The Pateros River is polluted by people throwing garbage into the river. A large part of the waste ends up in the water from the families living directly and indirectly near the water. The Philippine people should use solid waste management that take on the responsibility of the waste of households. Sadly the waste legislation does not apply for everyone. 1.1 Summary of problem analysis The Philippines has a large contrast in rich and poor. After World War II, a large group of illegal immigrants moved to Metro Manila for work and a good reconstruction of their own family. After the Philippines have been occupied by the Spaniards after over 300 years, the Roman Catholic faith became the dominant faith of the whole country. 83% of the population is strict Roman Catholic. This fact could logically be the cause of the strict rejection for contraception and family planning. This is reflected with the family size, the average family consisted out of 5-7 children. The population in Metro Manila grows every year with 1.8 percent and consists out of more than 50% of all inhabitants of the Philippines. (landenweb, 2016). The informal settlers are also known as informal settlers which are popularly known as the 'squatters' . A squatter is someone who decides to leave their given social house to someone else to live in the city.
