Chapter 3. General Flood Management Plan in the Laguna De Bay Coastal Region Data Collection Survey on Parañaque Spillway in Metro Manila Final Report in the Republic of the Philippines CHAPTER 3. GENERAL FLOOD MANAGEMENT PLAN IN THE LAGUNA DE BAY COASTAL REGION 3.1 Collection and Organization of Basic Information on Hydrology and Topography 3.1.1 Hydrologic Data (1) Rainfall Data Rainfall observation around Laguna de Bay is conducted by the following six institutions. Daily rainfall data is collected from PAGASA, PRBFFWC, NPC and MWSS. Regarding the hourly rainfall, EFCOS has been observing hourly rainfall and recording since 2003. Also, DOST ASTI has started the observation of hourly rainfall since 2015. 1. PAGASA (Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration) 2. EFCOS, MMDA (Effective Flood Control Operating System) 3. PRBFFWC (Pampanga River Basin Flood Forecasting and Waring Center, PAGASA) 4. NPC (National Power Corporation) 5. MWSS (Metropolitan Waterworks and Sewerage System) 6. DOST-ASTI (Advanced Science and Technology Institute) Table 3.1.1 shows the outline of rainfall observation data in the Laguna de Bay Basin. Table 3.2.1 shows the installation status of the rainfall observation data and Figure 3.2.1 shows the location map of rainfall observation stations. There are thirty-eight rainfall observation stations around the Laguna de Bay basin, and the observation stations where the rainfall observation data exists throughout the year varies from year to year. The station with the longest observation record of daily rainfall is Port Area where the observation has started since 1949. The hourly rainfall observation has been conducted by EFCOS since 2003; however, the observation is only in the Pasig–Marikina River Basin, and the hourly rainfall observation station is not yet established around Laguna de Bay. Also, the observation of the hourly rainfall and water level has been conducted by DOST ASTI since 2015, but the observation period is short which is not sufficient as the hourly data for the flood control plan.

  • 1 Introduction
    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.

  • Urbanization and Related Environmental Issues Of
    Journal of Advanced College of Engineering and Management, Vol. 3, 2017 URBANIZATION AND RELATED ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES OF METRO MANILA Ram Krishna Regmi Environment and Resource Management Consultant, Kathmandu, Nepal Email Address: [email protected] __________________________________________________________________________________ Abstract Due to rapid urbanization, Metro Manila is facing many environmental challenges with its continuous accelerating urban growth rate. According to 2010 census of population Metro Manila accounts about one-third of the total urban population and about 13% of the total national population of Philippines.The impact of urban growth of the Metro Manila to its urban environment relating on demography, solid wastes problem and problems in water bodies as well as air pollution and greenhouse gas emissionis emphasized here in this study.The flood prone areas within the Metro Manila is about 31%, most of the risk areas located along creeks, river banks or coastal areas.Metro Manila produces total garbage equivalent to 25% of the national waste generation in which about 17% is paper wastes and about 16% are plastics. In terms of water quality classification the upper reaches of the Marikina River is of Class A, but all remaining river systems are of Class C. Accordingly, the classification of Manila Bay is of Class SB. Similarly, the quality of ambient air of the Metro Manila is also poor. Using 2010 as base year, the major contributor to greenhouse gas is from vehicular emissions followed by the stationary sources. An urgent need is felt to incorporate environmental issues into planning its urban area to reduce the risks of further environmental degradation. Keywords: Metro Manila; urbanization; environmental issues; solid wastes;water quality; air pollution _________________________________________________________________________________ 1.
