    Presented at the DLSU Research Congress 2015 De La Salle University, Manila, Philippines March 2-4, 2015 Water Quality in Pampanga River Along Barangay Buas in Candaba, Pampanga Carolyn Arbotante, Jennifer Bandao, Agnes De Leon, Camela De Leon, Zenaida Janairo, Jill Lapuz, Ninez Bernardine Manaloto, Anabel Nacpil and Fritzie Salunga Department of Chemistry, College of Arts and Sciences, Angeles University Foundation Mac Arthur Highway, 2009 Angeles City, Philippines *[email protected] Abstract: Pampanga River traverses the provinces of Nueva Ecija, Pampanga, and Bulacan and is the second largest river in the whole of Luzon with a total length of 260 kilometers. It divides into small branches that empty to several fishponds especially in the town of Candaba. This study aimed to initially identify the physico- chemical characteristics of the river using some parameters such as pH, temperature, dissolved oxygen, ammonia, nitrates, and phosphates. Dissolved oxygen, pH, and temperature were measured using DO meter, pH meter, and thermometer. Chemical tests were done on site using test kits from Aquarium Pharmaceuticals Incorporated (API). It was found that ammonia and phosphate concentrations exceeded the maximum value required by the DAO 34 -Water Quality Standard for Class C Water. The DO concentration was below the minimum requirements for river water. Key Words: Candaba; Pampanga; River Water; Community 1. INTRODUCTION the barangay is directly connected to one side of the river and houses are built along the river bank. The Pampanga River with a total length of 260 town is more of a residential area with big factories kilometers, is the second largest river in the whole of not yet locally taking advantage of the river.

The thesis may not be reproduced elsewhere without the permission of the Author. The Use GIS and Remote Sensing in the Assessment of Magat Watershed in the Philippines A thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Environmental Management Massey University, Turitea Campus, Palmerston North, New Zealand Emerson Tattao 2010 Abstract The Philippine watersheds are continually being degraded— thus threatening the supply of water in the country. The government has recognised the need for effective monitoring and management to avert the declining condition of these watersheds. This study explores the applications of remote sensing and Geographical Information Systems (GIS), in the collection of information and analysis of data, in order to support the development of effective critical watershed management strategies. Remote sensing was used to identify and classify the land cover in the study area. Both supervised and unsupervised methods were employed to establish the most appropriate technique in watershed land cover classification. GIS technology was utilised for the analysis of the land cover data and soil erosion modelling. The watershed boundary was delineated from a digital elevation model, using the hydrological tools in GIS. The watershed classification revealed a high percentage of grassland and increasing agricultural land use, in the study area. The soil erosion modelling showed an extremely high erosion risk in the bare lands and a high erosion risk in the agriculture areas.

  • Flood Forecasting and Warning System for Magat Dam and Downstream Communities
    Flood Forecasting and Warning System for Magat Dam and Downstream Communities Rehabilitation of hydrometric network; develop- ment of a hydrological information system and THE PHILIPPINES procedures for use of data for flood forecasting/ Capital: Manila NVE warning systems; associated training. International Population: 105,720,644 (July 2013 est.) THE THE Section Background: Total installed capacity: 16,320 MW The Cagayan river basin is the largest in the Philippines, PHILIPPINES encompassing the provinces of Nueva Viscaya, Isabela and Cagayan. The basin is affected by recurring floods due to tropi- cal cyclones and the northeast monsoon. To mitigate adverse effects of flooding in the basin, the Philippine Government established the Cagayan Flood Forecasting and Warning System (FFWS) in 1982. The FFWS was upgraded in 1992 with the inclusion of a warning system for operation of the Magat Dam; -multipurpose dam for irrigation of 102,000 hectares and for power production. The system has encountered fur- ther problems since its upgrading, including breakdown of the telemetry system and some of the monitoring stations. The ability to warn people downstream and to operate the spill- ways of the Magat Dam satisfactorily at times of floods has therefore been reduced. In June 2008 Norad asked NVE to assist PAGASA preparing a proposal for the rehabilitation and upgrading of the system. A field visit including an assessment of the station network was conducted by NVE officials in November 2008. As an agreed follow-up, NVE prepared a proposal in close cooperation with PAGASA on how to structure potential Norwegian support for the rehabilitation and upgrading of the Cagayan FFWS.

Somga Fish Health Section Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources 860 Quezon Avenue, Quezon City, Philippines I. Current Status of Koi Herpesvirus Disease (KHVD) in the Production of Common Carp and Koi Carp I-1. Production of Common Carp and Koi Carp a. Production of Common Carp In 2003, production of common carp (Cyprinus carpio) was estimated at 667 metric tons (MT). Most of the production came from the provinces of Luzon particularly Rizal, Laguna, Quezon, Ifugao and Cordillera. The fish is commonly cultured in ponds and some in pens, mainly as monoculture and, to a lesser extent, polyculture with tilapia. Common carp production remains limited because of inadequate supply of fingerlings. Common carp was introduced from China in 1915. The fish was stocked in several lakes and rivers all over the country. In Luzon, it was introduced in Laguna de Bay, Bato and Baao in Bicol, Paoay Lake in Ilocos Norte, Lake Naujan in Mindoro, and Taal Lake. It was also introduced into Magat River in Nueva Viscaya, Lakes Bato and Buhi in Camarines Sur, and Cagayan River in Isabela. In Mindanao, it was introduced in Lakes Lanao, Mainit and Buluan. Since then, common carp has become prevalent in many rivers, lakes and reservoirs in the country. In the 1990s, the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR), through the National Inland Fisheries Technology Center (NIFTC) in Tanay, Rizal, in collaboration with Philippine Council for Aquatic and Marine Research and Development (PCAMRD), and the University of the Philippines Los Baños (UPLB), established common carp farming technology for the upland areas of Rizal, Laguna, Quezon, Ifugao and Cordillera.

  • Cagayan Riverine Zone Development Framework Plan 2005—2030
    Cagayan Riverine Zone Development Framework Plan 2005—2030 Regional Development Council 02 Tuguegarao City Message The adoption of the Cagayan Riverine Zone Development Framework Plan (CRZDFP) 2005-2030, is a step closer to our desire to harmonize and sustainably maximize the multiple uses of the Cagayan River as identified in the Regional Physical Framework Plan (RPFP) 2005-2030. A greater challenge is the implementation of the document which requires a deeper commitment in the preservation of the integrity of our environment while allowing the development of the River and its environs. The formulation of the document involved the wide participation of concerned agencies and with extensive consultation the local government units and the civil society, prior to its adoption and approval by the Regional Development Council. The inputs and proposals from the consultations have enriched this document as our convergence framework for the sustainable development of the Cagayan Riverine Zone. The document will provide the policy framework to synchronize efforts in addressing issues and problems to accelerate the sustainable development in the Riverine Zone and realize its full development potential. The Plan should also provide the overall direction for programs and projects in the Development Plans of the Provinces, Cities and Municipalities in the region. Let us therefore, purposively use this Plan to guide the utilization and management of water and land resources along the Cagayan River. I appreciate the importance of crafting a good plan and give higher degree of credence to ensuring its successful implementation. This is the greatest challenge for the Local Government Units and to other stakeholders of the Cagayan River’s development.

  • Flood Risk Assessment Under the Climate Change in the Case of Pampanga River Basin, Philippines
    FLOOD RISK ASSESSMENT UNDER THE CLIMATE CHANGE IN THE CASE OF PAMPANGA RIVER BASIN, PHILIPPINES Santy B. Ferrer* Supervisor: Mamoru M. Miyamoto** MEE133631 Advisors: Maksym Gusyev*** Miho Ohara**** ABSTRACT The main objective of this study is to assess the flood risk in the Pampanga river basin that consists of the flood hazard, exposure, and risk in terms of potential flood fatalities and economic losses under the climate change. The Rainfall-Runoff-Inundation (RRI) model was calibrated using 2011 flood and validated with the 2009, 2012 and 2013 floods. The calibrated RRI model was applied to produce flood inundation maps based on 10-, 25, 50-, and 100-year return period of 24-hr rainfall. The rainfall data is the output of the downscaled and bias corrected MRI -AGCM3.2s for the current climate conditions (CCC) and two cases of future climate conditions with an outlier in the dataset (FCC-case1) and without an outlier (FCC-case2). For this study, the exposure assessment focuses on the affected population and the irrigated area. Based on the results, there is an increasing trend of flood hazard in the future climate conditions, therefore, the greater exposure of the people and the irrigated area keeping the population and irrigated area constant. The results of this study may be used as a basis for the climate change studies and an implementation of the flood risk management in the basin. Keywords: Risk assessment, Pampanga river basin, Rainfall-Runoff-Inundation model, climate change, MRI-AGCM3.2S 1. INTRODUCTION The Pampanga river basin is the fourth largest basin in the Philippines located in the Central Luzon Region with an approximate area of 10,545 km² located in the Central Luzon Region.
