It is funded by the Asian Deve lopment Bank (ADB) through Loan 2836-PHI: Road Improvement and Institutional Development Project (RIIDP), with the supporting funding from the OPEC Fund for International Development (OFID). CP Lot 4.1: Dumaguete North Road Project, Manjuyod-La Libertad Road Section is one of the road packages of the RIIDP. It starts from KM. 53 + 428.81 (Boundary point with Dumaguete City along the Manjuyod-Road Section) to KM. 108 + 967.00 (Boundary point to La libertad-Vallehermoso Road Section). From the start of the project in the Municipality of Manjuyod, the project road proceeds to a northward direction over flat, gentle terrain to rolling and mountainous terrains and traverses several towns of Negros Oriental namely, Bindoy, Ayungon, Tayasan, Jimalalud and part of the Municipality of La-libertad. The entire stretch of the road is under the jurisdiction of the DPWH Negros Oriental First Engineering District with its new office site in the Municipality of Bindoy. The road section covers a gross length of 55.538 kilometers with exceptions. The exempted sections are 25 bridges (0.962 KM.) and the areas covered by the 2015 budget for DPWH Infra Project which covers a total length of 1.624 ki lometers. The road section is a combination of existing ACP that covers a length of 8.313 kilometers and existing PCCP with a length of 47.225 kilometers. The net length is 52.952 kilometers. This 24-hour air quality and noise level sampling is conducted as part of and in compliance to the requirements of the ADB approved IEE Environmental Management Plan (EMP). 2.0 Sam pli ng Me thod ol ogy 2.1 Ambient Air Sampling The DENR standard ambient sampling equipment and analytical procedures were used in the sampling activity. These equipment and procedures are specified below: Particulate Matter (PM10) Procedure: USEPA, 40 CFR 50, Appendix B Sampling Equipment: Graseby High Volume Sampler (for 24 hours sampling) Method of Analysis: Gravimetric Method Total Suspended Particulates (TSP) Procedure: USEPA, 40 CFR 50, Appendix B Sampling Equipment: Graseby High Volume Sampler (for 24 hours sampling) 1 Ambient Air Quality and Noise Level Monitoring (April 2018) Hunan Bridge and Road Corp. Method of Analysis: Gravimetric Method Sulfur Dioxide (SO 2) Procedure: USEPA, 40 CFR 50, Appendix A Sampling Equipment: Graseby Gas Bubbler Sampler (USEPA Compliant) Method of Analysis: Pararosaniline Method Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2) Reference Procedure: Air Pollution Monitoring Manual, EMB-1994 Sampling Equipment: Graseby Gas Bubbler Sampler (USEPA Compliant) Method of Analysis: Colorimetric, Greiss Saltzman After each sampling activity, all sam ples were preserved in an ice box while the filters that were used to collect TSP and PM1o were placed inside a sealed plastic container. The samples were immediately transported to ELARSI, INC., a DENR-EMB accredited laboratory for testing and analyses. 2.2 Noise Measurement A precision type, digital sound level meter was used in noise measurement. The said instrument is an AM PROBE SM-10. As declared in the Certificate of Conformity, with the accuracy of 1.5d8, the sound level meter fulfills the guidelines of 89/336/ECC. The sound level meter conforms also with DIN EN 60651, (IEC651), Class 2 Standards. Th e sound level meter was ca librated by Switchtek Measurement Systems using a Lutron Sound level calibrator model SC-940. By comparative technique, Standard Sound Generator was introduced to the AMPROBE at a constant value of 94.0 dB and at a uniform frequency of 1000 Hz. Data were gathered and tabulated. The results of the ca libration found that there was a +-0.00 dB standard error between the reference reading and the test reading with a confidence level of not less than 95%. The procedure of the test is traceable to the requirement of OIML 88 guidelines, IEC 60942 Type II, a Standard of the NIST and National Physical Laboratories (NPL). Right after collecting ambient air samples, in the same t wo sampling locations, Noise measurement was conducted. Fifty (50) instantaneous readings in decibels - A weighing (dBA) were recorded for about 2 to 3 minutes. Statistical values such as minimum, maximum, mean and median were determined from the readings. 2 Ambient Air Quality and Noise Level Monitoring (April 2018) Hunan Bridge and Road Corp. 3.0 The Sampling Location The approximate locations of the sampling stations are shown in the attached sampling map and are briefly described as follows: Figure 1: The Ambient Air Sampling Location Map Untitled Map Source: Google Earth Table 1: The Two Identified Sampling Stations Sampling Station Location Station 1 Along K.

The Ambient Air Sampling for all stations was conducted on a sunny weather condition with light wind direction. The results of the sampling analysis shows that the ambient concentrations were all within the DENR Standards limit in all sampling stations. 6 Ambient Air Quality and Noise Level Monitoring (April 2018) Hunan Bridge and Road Corp. 5.2 Noise Measurement The DENR Environmental Quality Standards for Noise is based on the 1978 Rules and Regulations of the National Pollution Control Commission. AS per these regulations, noise is measured in 11A" weighting network and 11slow response" with different limits for various time of the day and area category. The results of noise level measurement were compared to the standards based on the existing land use within the sampling locations. All stations are located at mountain area and residential area/site, therefore considered Class C (Commercial Area). All noise level measurement were all within the DENR limit for Class C area. The main sources of noise observed during sampling were mostly from vehicles and people passing t hru Western Nautical Highway of Jimalalud and Tayasan, Negros Oriental. 6.0 References ASTM Standard Dl607, 1991 (2011), "Standard Test Method for Nitrogen Dioxide Content of the Atmosphere (Griess-Saltzman Reaction)," ASTM International, West Conshohocken, PA, 2003, DOI: 10.1520/D1607-91Rll, www.astm.org.

    World Chambers Competition Best job creation and business development project Negros Oriental Chamber of Commerce and Industry The Philippines FINALIST I. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Negros Oriental Chamber of Commerce and Industry Inc. (NOCCI), being the only recognized voice of business in the Province of Negros Oriental, Philippines, developed the TIP PROJECT or the TRADE TOURISM and INVESTMENT PROMOTION ("TIP" for short) PROJECT to support its mission in conducting trade, tourism and investment promotion, business development activities and enhancement of the business environment of the Province of Negros Oriental. The TIP Project was conceptualized during the last quarter of 2013 and was launched in January, 2014 as the banner project of the Chamber to support its new advocacy for inclusive growth and local economic development through job creation and investment promotion. The banner project was coined from the word “tip” - which means giving sound business advice or sharing relevant information and expertise to all investors, businessmen, local government officials and development partners. The TIP Project was also conceptualized to highlight the significant role and contribution of NOCCI as a champion for local economic development and as a banner project of the Chamber to celebrate its Silver 25th Anniversary by December, 2016. For two years, from January, 2015 to December, 2016, NOCCI worked closely with its various partners in local economic development like the Provincial Government, Local Government Units (LGUs), National Government Agencies (NGAs), Non- Government Organizations (NGOs), Industry Associations and international funding agencies in implementing its various job creation programs and investment promotion activities to market Negros Oriental as an ideal investment/business destination for tourism, retirement, retail, business process outsourcing, power/energy and agro-industrial projects.

    COMMUNITY-BASED MARINE SANCTUARIES in the PHILIPPINES:A REPORT on FOCUS GROUP DISCUSSIONS Brian Crawford, Miriam Balgos and Cesario R. Pagdilao June 2000 Coastal Resources Center Philippine Council for Aquatic and University of Rhode Island Marine Research and Development 1. Introduction 1.1 Project Overview The Coastal Resources Center of the University of Rhode Island (CRC) was awarded a three-year grant in September 1999, from the David and Lucile Packard Foundation to foster marine conservation in Indonesia. The overall goal of the project is to build local capacity in North Sulawesi Province to establish and successfully implement community- based marine sanctuaries. The project builds on previous and on-going CRC field activities in North Sulawesi supported by the USAID Coastal Resources Management Project, locally known as Proyek Pesisir. While the primary emphasis of the project is on Indonesia, it includes a significant Philippine component in the first year. The project objectives are to: • Document methodologies and develop materials for use in widespread adaptation of community-based marine sanctuary approaches to specific site conditions • Build capacity of local institutions in North Sulawesi to replicate models of successful community-based marine sanctuaries by developing human resource capacity and providing supporting resource materials • Replicate small-scale community-based marine sanctuaries in selected North Sulawesi communities through on-going programs of local institutions Activities in the first year of the project are focusing on documenting the limited Indonesia experience and the more than two decades of Philippine experience in establishing and replicating community-based marine sanctuaries. The Philippine experience is highly relevant to Indonesia for several reasons.
