    BOLINAO RALLIES AROUND ITS REEF ith its cascading waterfalls, rolling hills, white beaches, and spectacular sunsets, Boli- nao has been called nature’s masterpiece. But PHILIPPINES the most valuable asset in this northern South China Sea Philippines municipality may be its 200 km2 of coral reefs. W Coral reefs About one-third of Bolinao’s 30 villages and 50,000 people Bolinao depend on fishing to make a living (McManus et al. 1992:43), Bolinao + Mangroves Manila and the Bolinao-Anda coral reef complex serves as the spawn- ing ground for 90 percent of Bolinao’s fish catch. More than Bolinao municipality 350 species of vertebrates, invertebrates, and plants are har- vested from the reef and appear in Bolinao’s markets each Lingayen year (Maragos et al. 1996:89). Gulf Imagine, then, the dismay among local residents, marine researchers, and NGOs who learned in 1993 that an interna- tional consortium intended to build what was claimed to be the world’s largest cement factory right on Bolinao’s coral reef-covered shoreline. The cement industry ranks among the three biggest polluters in the Philippines (Surbano 1998), LUZON and the plans for the Bolinao complex included a quarry, power plant, and wharf. It can take 3,500 pounds of raw mate- rials to produce 1 ton of finished cement; pollutants com- monly emitted from this energy-intensive industry include nao’s coral reef system. Researchers found that about 60 per- carbon dioxide, sulphur dioxide, nitrous oxide, and dust— cent of the region’s corals had been killed, mostly through about 360 pounds of particulates per ton of cement produced.

  • Sea Urchin Management in Bolinao, Pangasinan, Philippines: Attempts on Sustainable Use of a Communal Resource
    Sea urchin management in Bolinao, Pangasinan, Philippines: Attempts on sustainable use of a communal resource Liana T. McManus, Edgardo D. Gomez, John W. McManus, and Antoinette Juinio Marine Science Institute University of the Philippines Diliman, Quezon City 1101 Philippines ABSTRACT The sea urchin, Tripneustes gratilla. is exploited in the reef flats of Bolinao for its roe. A high international demand for brined sea urchin gonads since the early 1980's has led to an overfished resource base. An exploitation level index of 0.6 to 0.7, and slow decline in harvest rates from 1987 to 1989 indicate the extent of overfishing. as of 1988. The adoption of an annual closed collecting season from December to January helped mitigate the status in 1989. Succeeding closed seasons however suffered from lack of effective enforcement. Changing patterns in the manpower structure of the industry from self-employment among fishermen, to one of direct dependence of fishermen on foreign buyers with increasing capital inputs, seem to have exacerbated over-harvest of sea urchins. Although the potential to draw a comprehensive management plan exists within the powers of the municipality of Bolinao, an effective village mobilization program directed at grassroots participation in resource stewardship is the recommended course of action. Introduction The sea urchin industry of Bolinao, Pangasinan, northern Philippines (fig. 1), is a case study of a communal resource which can sustain harvest provided that a comprehensive management intervention is drawn up. Because of an ineffective management measure adopted by the municipal council and because of shifts in the manpower structure of the industry, indices obtained from previous studies and a 4- year monitoring of catch effort statistics from a landing site indicate that sea urchins are an overfished resource, and that total daily harvest is on the down trend.

Nowadays, these are declining due to habitat disturbances. This study was conducted in Western, Pangasinan, with mangrove rehabilitation projects under Community Based Forest Management Agreement. Four mangrove rehabilitation areas were looked into: Pilar and Victory, Bolinao; and Awile and Tori-tori, Anda, Pangasinan. Purposive sampling was done in selecting the mangrove rehabilitation areas. Ten percent sampling of the areas using the belt transect quadrat method was employed. Diversity, dominance , richness and evenness indices for mollusks were determined. Mann Whitney test, Student’s t-test and Kruskal Wallis test were used. A total of fourteen kinds of mollusks species were identified. The species were Tectusfenestratus (fenestrate top), Terebraliasulcata (Sulcate swamp perith), Haliotisovinagemelin (oval abalone), Neritaplanospiraanton

  • Mariculture in the Philippines Data Collection Selection
    Attitudes Towards Mariculture Among Men and Women in Mariculture Areas in the Philippines Alice Joan G. Ferrer1, Herminia A. Francisco2, Benedict Mark Carmelita3, and Jinky Hopanda3 1 2 3 University of the Philippines Visayas, Economy and Environment Program for Southeast Asia, University of the Philippines Visayas Foundation, Inc. [email protected] MARICULTURE IN THE PHILIPPINES Mariculture or Marine Aquaculture started in the Philippines wayback before the government promoted the mariculture park program in the early 2000. Without legislative framework and enforcement, mariculture development was unregulated leading to inefficient practice and environmental problems such as fish kill. The Mariculture Park Program was introduced by the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR), the fisheries arm of the Philippine government, for efficient and regulated mariculture operation, at the same time provide employment and alternative livelihood to the marginalized fisherfolks. However, the establishment of the fish cages and pens led to issues of displacement of fishers from their traditional fishing ground, and occurrence of water pollution due to organic enrichment resulting from intensive fish culture. Support from the local residents in the mariculture sites in the country is needed to address these issues and improve the policies in promotion of balanced mariculture operation. This research focused on describing the attitude towards mariculture among men and women in the seven mariculture areas in the country that could help improve policies for mariculture operation.
