 FOREWORD

This is the third issue of the Compendium of Philippine Environment

Statistics. The compendium is a compilation of statistical information collected from
data produced by various government agencies and from data available in different
statistical publications. The compilation of statistical data in this compendium is
based on the Philippine Framework of Environment Statistics (PFDES) which in turn
is based on the United Nations Framework for the Development of Environment
Statistics. It covers data for the period 1992 to 2002, whenever possible. Latest
figures presented vary depending on the availability of data.

The PFDES provides a systematic approach to the development of

environment statistics and is an instrument for compiling and integrating data coming
from various data collecting institutions to make them more useful in the formulation
and evaluation of socio-economic and environmental programs and policies.

As in the previous editions, the focus of this compendium is on the five main
items of environmental issues, namely: flora/fauna, atmosphere, water, land, mineral
and energy and human settlements. The NSCB will strive to further improve the
scope and coverage of the compendium in the future. It is hoped that this
compendium will serve as a useful and convenient reference on the Philippine
environment.

With this publication the NSCB fulfills in part its function of providing
information to planners, decision makers, researchers and other users towards
sustainable development.

The preparation of this publication would not have been possible without the
valuable assistance and cooperation of the different source agencies. We take this
opportunity to acknowledge their continued support towards a more responsive
Philippine statistical system.

 Introduction

INTRODUCTION

This is the third issue of the Compendium of Philippine Environment

Statistics (CPES) compiled by the National Statistical Coordination Board (NSCB).
The compilation is an ongoing effort of NSCB in fulfilling its foremost objective: to
develop an orderly Philippine Statistical System capable of providing timely,
accurate, relevant, and useful data for the government and the public for planning and
decision.

The work on environment statistics was initiated through the technical

Assistance of the Asian Development Bank (ADB) through RETA 555 “Institutional
Strengthening and Collection of Environment Statistics in Selected Developing
Member Countries. The primary objective of the project was the development of the
Philippine Framework for the Development of Environment Statistics (PFDES).

The document is divided into six chapters corresponding to the following

components of our natural environment: Flora and Fauna; Atmosphere; Water; Land
and Soil; Mineral and Energy Resources; and Human Settlement s. The first five
chapters concern our natural resources while the last chapter, Human Settlements,
deals with the “habitat” or environment of human beings encompassing both rural and
urban areas where man settles to live.

Each chapter/component contain: (a) the statistical framework showing the

specific variables and the measurements needed to quantify the topics/items in the
conceptual framework; (b) a short discussion on the major issues and concerns
supported by data collected; and (c) additional statistical tables reflecting the
sequence of events from human activities and natural events creating an impact on the
environment and individuals and social responses to avoid or mitigate these impacts.
The levels of disaggregation vary depending on the availability of data.

The Glossary of Terms, which contains the terminologies and definitions used
in the compendium, is included in the publication. Inclusion of the Glossary is a way
by which we hope to enhance the usefulness of the statistics presented in the
compendium. As work on the institutionalization of the PFDES continues, we hope to
expand and improve our future publications, including the standardization of terms to
conform with internationally accepted definitions while at the same time ma intaining
relevance to the local situation.

A List of Acronyms and Abbreviations of Terms used in the compendium is

likewise added.

 The Philippine Framework for the Development of
Environment Statistics (PFDES)

The PFDES is a systematic organization of the interdisciplinary nature of

environment statistics and focuses on the identification, description and presentation
of data variables which are useful for tracing and verifying interrelationships of
human activities and natural events with the environment. As agreed upon during the
Inception Workshop on the Institutional Strengthening and Collection of Environment
Statistics in selected developing member countries (RETA 5555) held in Manila on
September 18-21, 1995, the United Nations FDES (UNFDES) will serve as a guide in
formulating the PFDES. The UNFDES was then realigned to the Philippine setting to
meet the country’s specific concerns.

The PFDES relates each component of the environment (Flora, Fauna,

Atmosphere, Water, Land and Soil, Mineral and Energy Resources, Flora and Human
Settlements) to four information categories, namely: (1) Social and economic
activities and natural events; (2) Environmental impacts of activities and events; (3)
Responses to environmental impacts; and (4) Stocks and inventories (Tables A to F).

Social and economic activities and natural events include human activities and
natural events which directly affect the different components of the environment,
thus, producing environmental impacts. Human activities like the production and
consumption of goods and services affect the different components of the
environment through the direct use or misuse of natural resources or through the
generation of waste and the emissions in production and consumption processes.
Likewise, natural events such as typhoons, earthquakes and volcanic eruptions also
have impacts on the different environmental media. Natural disasters, largely caused
by human activities, also stress the balance of the environment.

Environmental impacts of activities and events, as the name suggests, attempts

to quantify the negative effects on the environment of man’s activities and natural
events. Negative impacts are manifested in the depletion of natural resources
(measured in terms of changes in the quantity), environmental degradation (measured
in terms of the changes in the quality) and the consequential health and welfare
effects.

Man’s various attempts to curb and mitigate these negative impacts give rise to
the third information category, namely, responses to environmental impact s. These
responses can either be defensive/curative such as cleaning up or preventive such as
regulating human behaviour. Further, responses may be in the form of policies,
programs and projects designed to monitor and control pollutants, develop and apply
environmentally sound techniques, change the production and consumption patterns,
manage and use properly the natural resources, prevent and mitigate the effects of
natural disasters and improve the living conditions in human settlements. Such efforts
are, in turn, carried out either through individual actions in the case of households and
entrepreneurs, or through collective actions in the case of government organizations
such as UNESCO.

 The fourth category, stocks and inventories, is intended to provide
“benchmark” data for possible linkage with other subject areas.

Within each information category are statistical topics which formed the basis
in identifying relevant statistical variables to be included in the framework.

Statistical Framework

To operationalize the conceptual framework, the statistical framework for all

the component of the environment (Flora, Fauna, Atmosphere, Water, Land and Soil,
Mineral and Energy Resources, Flora and Human Settlements) as related to the four
information categories was developed. The statistical framework for each component
is shown in Table G to L. The statistical framework starts with the topics/items
identified in the conceptual framework and proceeds to the identification of specific
relevant variables and their corresponding units of measurement needed to quantify

a. Social and Economic Activities and Natural Events

Forest Resources

The total land area of the Philippines is about 30 million hectares. This is
classified into certified alienable and disposable land and Forestland. Forestlands are
further classified into established forest reserve; established timberland; national
parks (game refuge and bird sanctuaries and wilderness areas); military and naval
reservation; civil reservations; and, fishponds.

In 2002, 14,765,804 hectares (49 percent) of the Philippines’ total land area
were characterized as classified forestland while 14,145,078 hectares (47 percent)
were distinguished as alienable and disposable land. The remaining, 1,089,118
hectares (4 percent) were characterized as unclassified forestland. (see Figure 1 and
Table 1.1).

To conserve and protect the forest, the old growth dipterocarp forest areas
were placed under the National Integrated Protected Areas Systems (NIPAS) since
January 1992. As a consequence, the trend in log production decreased progressively
from 1992 to 2002 (Figure 2) with an annual average drop of 11 percent.

Likewise, the trend in production of selected non-timber products,

particularly, unsplit rattan and almaciga, from 1992 to 2002 were also on the
downtrend with an average annual decline of 10.2 and 1.8 percent, respectively.

Production of unsplit rattan was highest in 2000 while harvest of almaciga resin was
highest in 1994 (Figure 3). Harvest of nipa shingles, on the other hand, continued to
fluctuate with 1999 posting the highest harvest at 12,745,204 pieces.

Besides harvesting of forest products, forest fires were still the number one
cause that aggravated the depletion of forest flora and fauna. In 2002, forest fires
affected about 3,165 hectares of forestlands while kaingin burned about 2,172
hectares of forest particularly in the Cordillera Administrative Region (CAR).

Fish Resources

As shown in Table 1, the country’s total fish production steadily increased

from 1997 to 2002. In 2002, marine fish catch (which includes production from both
commercial and marine municipal fishing) continued to account for the largest share
at 56.4 percent (Figure 6) of the total fish production of the country. This growth
occurred after the decline reported in 1996. On the other hand, commercial fishing
followed a similar pattern as municipal fishing except in 2000 where a slight decline
was reported.

The government grant permits for the exportation and local transport of
wildlife. Wildlife, CITES and non-CITES, are exported in various forms: head and
other body parts of the animals, derivatives of animal products, whole and parts of
plants, etc. In 2001, the total revenue of the government from wildlife export reached
P 7.1 million. This amount was 149 percent higher than the revenues collected in
1992. It was also noted that from 1992 to 2001, revenues of the government from
wildlife export steadily increased especially from wildlife species whose commercial
export or trade are strictly regulated and/or prohibited (see Figure 4).

b. Environmental Impacts of Activities and Events

Rare, Threatened and Endangered Wildlife Species

Despite government efforts to preserve wildlife species, the number of rare,

threatened and endangered fauna species continued to increase at an average annual
growth of 6.1 percent from 1992 to 2002. Most alarming was the rate at which
mammal and bird species were becoming endangered registering an average annual
growth of 7.7 percent and 5.6 percent, respectively from 1992 to 2002 (see Figure 6).
As of 2002, of the total 322 total endangered fauna species, 216 were birds and 99
were mammals.

Net Change in Fish Catch

An indicator of sustainability of fishing activity is the net change in fish catch

shown in Table 2 and Figure 4.

The country’s annual total fish production from 1992 to 2002 was
characterized by annual fluctuations on the average by 4.1 percent. The year 1997
was the most bountiful year at 16.1 percent following a reported drop of 0.9 percent in
1996, the lowest during the 10-year period.

Fish production from marine sources likewise fluctuated annually but

managed to register an average annual growth of 1.4 percent during the ten- year
period. Inland municipal fishing was affected significantly by the continuous harvest
with a net annual average change of –5.3 percent. This is an indication that fishery
resources in inland waters have been depleted.

Protected Areas

As of 2002, the total protected areas in the country under NIPAS was 2.5
million hectares. Protected areas are classified into natural park, protected
landscape/seascape, natural monument/landmark resource, wildlife sanctuary natural
biotic areas and marine reserve. Protected landscape/seascape covered the largest area
with 1.39 million hectares while natural biotic areas reported the smallest area
coverage with about 14 thousand hectares only. Among the different regions in the
Philippines, Region 2 had the largest protected landscape/seascape with 310 thousand
hectares while the smallest was located in Region 5, the Malabungot Protected
Landscape and Seascape in Garchitorena, Camarines Sur, with only 120.6 hectares.

 Flora and Fauna

The largest single area protected landscape/seascape was the Siargao Protected
Landscape/Seascape with a total area of 278.9 thousand hectares.

Wildlife Species Protected

The Philippines acceded to the Convention on International Trade in

Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES) in 1981 and became an actual
member in 1983. Pursuant to the provisions of the treaty, the Philippines is required
to report lists of wildlife species categorized into: Appendix I (endangered fauna and
flora prohibited by the contracting states of CITES for commercial trade and/or
export), Appendix II (plant and animal species whose commercial export/trade is
strictly regulated) and Appendix III (species that highly need local protection set
under national policies as determined by the country’s CITES Management
Authority). Wildlife species are categorized according to the level of threat to their
survival.

The 2002 list of Philippine endemic and indigenous flora and fauna for priority
protection based on CITES Appendix I released by the Protected Areas and Wildlife
Bureau (PAWB) reached a total of 25 species: 8 mammal, 9 birds, 6 reptiles, 1 insects
and 1 plant (Figure 6). In 1992, the total number of species under CITES I was 29. A
significant change was observed in the number of bird species under CITES I, i.e.
from a total of 13 in 1994, this went down to 9 in 2002.

On the other hand, the number of flora and fauna species under Appendix II
increased from 108 in 1992 to 132 in 2002 or an increase of 22 percent. Out of the
132 species, 27 were mammals, 67 birds, 13 reptiles, 3 insects, 7 mollusks and 15

plants (Figure 7). The most significant change was noted in the reptile species which
increased from 3 in 1992 to 13 in 2002.

Laws Promulgated, Policies and Programs Implemented

A total of 49 policy issuances (Republic Act, Proclamation, Executive Order,

Malacañang Memorandum Circulars/Order/Administrative Order, Department of
Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) and Department of Agriculture (DA)
Administrative Order, DENR and DA Memorandum Circular, DENR and DA
Memorandum Order, Department Circulars of DENR and Joint Memorandum
Circulars) affecting protected areas and wildlife sector were added to the existing 227
policies issued from 1998 to 2000.

The most significant of these polices was Republic Act No. 9147 entitled an
Act Providing for the Conservation and Protection of Wildlife Resources and
their Habitats, Appropriating Funds thereof and for other Purposes which was
approved by the Philippine Congress in July 30, 2001. The Law was aimed to:

a. conserve and protect wildlife species and their habitats to promote

ecological balance and enhance biological diversity;
b. regulate the collection and trade of wildlife;
c. pursue, with due regard to the national interest, the Philippine
commitment to international conventions, protection of wildlife and their
habitats; and,
d. initiate or support scientific studies on the conservation of biological
diversity.

Issuance of Wildlife Permits

To protect wildlife species from overexploitation, permits have to be secured

for its local transport and export. Issuance of local transport permits peaked in 1999
with 9,339 permits issued (see Table 4). However, from 2000 to 2002, the number of
permits issued declined. In 2002, local transport permits for orchids were still the
highest with 5,262 out of the 6,216, or 84.7 percent of permits issued. This was
followed by the 739 (11.9 percent) permits issued for insects.

On the other hand, the total number of permits issued for wildlife export, i.e.,
CITES and non-CITES combined, exhibited an increasing trend from 1992 to 2002
growing at an annual average of 13.5 percent. Moreover, the number of non-CITES
permits issued were repeatedly higher than that of CITES permit issuances. In 2002,
non-CITES permits accounted for almost 63 percent while that of CITES accounted
for only 37 percent out of the total 1,922 issuances.

HIGHLIGHTS OF RESULTS

Air Quality

The Air Quality Management Section (AQMS) of the central office and the
Environment Quality Monitoring Sections of the regional offices of the Environment
Management Bureau (EMB) of DENR monitor air quality nationwide. In the past,
only total suspended particulate (TSP) was consistently monitored. However, with
the passage of the Clean Air Act and wider capability of DENR, particulate matter
with a diameter of 10 micron (PM10 ) or smaller, sulfur dioxide (SO2 ), nitrogen
dioxide (NO2 ), carbon monoxide (CO), ozone (O 3 ), and lead (Pb) are now being
monitored as “criteria pollutants”.

Criteria Pollutants are air pollutants for which National Ambient Air Quality
Guideline Standards have been established for the protection of public health, safety,
and general welfare.

Figure 1 illustrates the composition of emission pollutants in the Philippines by

source. While monitoring of ambient levels is focused on the criteria pollutant
nitrogen dioxide (NO2 ) and sulfur dioxide (SO2 ), emission inventories usually cover
all oxides of nitrogen (NOx ), also called nitrogen oxides, which include NO, NO2 ,
N2O and NO3 and all oxides of sulfur (SOx ) also called sulfur oxides, which includes
SO2 and SO3 , respectively.

For area sources (such as burning and construction work), nitrogen oxide was
the number one pollutant, contributing more than 77 percent of total area source
pollutants. Nitrogen oxides are produced whenever air is heated to high temperatures,

 Atmosphere

such as in automobile cylinders or high temperature furnaces of power plants and

industrial boilers.

In the case of mobile sources, carbon monoxide emission was the leading
pollutant comprising nearly 62 percent of the total pollutants. Carbon Monoxide is a
colorless, odorless, poisonous gas, which is slightly lighter than air. It is produced
primarily by motor vehicles and is formed when fossil fuels do not burn completely.

Sulfur dioxide made up 96 percent of the total pollutant emitted from

stationary sources. SO2 is usually emitted from the burning of coal and oil in
electrical energy generation or heating or from internal combustion engines. The
higher the sulfur content of the fuel, the more of this is pollutant is produced. It is
also released in the industrial production of sulfuric acid. The gas is colorless and
very irritating to the respiratory system.

Quantity wise, carbon monoxide tops the list of pollutants listed with 4,057
thousand tons emitted in 2001. It was followed by nitrogen oxides with 3,643
thousand tons emitted. Third was total suspended particulate (PM) with 872 thousand
tons and last was sulfur dioxide with 862 thousand tons, Table 3.1.

With regards to the country’s consumption of the ozone depleting substance

chlorofluorocarbons, data from EMB revealed that the 1,644.5 metric tons consumed
in 2002 was the lowest in a ten-year period (1993 to 2002), Table 2.10. The annual
average decrease in consumption of chlorofluorocarbons for the period covered was
6.5 percent. On the other hand, annual average growth in the consumption of
hydrochloroflurocarbons and methyl bromide covering the same period was 4.6
percent. Hydrochlorofluorocarbons are fluorocarbon that is used to replace
chlorofluorocarbon as a refrigerant and propellant in aerosol cans. It is considered to
be somewhat less destructive to the atmosphere

Air Quality in Metro Manila

Being the most industrialized area in the Philippines, Metro Manila has been
the focus of government efforts in terms of air quality monitoring. Industrial firms and
motor vehicles were identified as the two major sources of air pollution in the
metropolis.

In 2001, carbon monoxide emission from mobile sources in Metro Manila was
almost 38 percent of the total mobile CO emission nationwide. This may be
attributed to the high volume of motor vehicles in Metro Manila.

With regards to the area source pollution in Metro Manila, the 2001 data
released by EMB revealed that the Metro Manila air contained 684,816 tons of NOx
(79 percent), 19,476 tons of VOC (15.8 percent), 3,641 tons of SOx (0.4 percent),
137,224 tons of CO, and 21,836 tons of PM, Table 1 and Figure 2. The pollutants
NOx, VOC and SOx found in NCR were the highe st in the country.

However, the average TSP concentration was only 206 ug/Ncm for a 24-hour period.
The monitoring station at Congressional Road, Quezon City also registered the same
average concentration as that of Valenzuela City (see Figure 2). These averages were
still below the national ambient air quality standard which is set at 230ug/Ncm.

Air Quality in the Regions

Table 2.3 listed the total estimated emission of SOx in 2001 in all regions
based on the Self-Monitoring Reports submitted and emission inventory of major
industries. The Highest SOx emissions occurred in Region 3 with 474,471 tons,
Region 7 with 130,990 tons and Region 4 with 66,277tons. The lowest were in
Region 2 with 712 tons, Region 12 with 917 tons and Region 11 with 1,213 tons.

Region 4 was second to Metro Manila when it comes to NOx emissions with
an estimated total of 781,468 tons in 2001. About 668,000 tons or 85 percent of these
came from area sources. On the other hand, Caraga had the lowest estimated
emission of NOx with 4,680 tons in 2001 (see Table 2.4).

Table 2.5 listed the total estimated emission of CO in 2001 in all regions. The
highest carbon monoxide emission, except NCR, occurred in Region 3 with 421,069
tons and Region7 with 405,860 tons. The lowest were in Caraga with 20,209 tons and
Region 10 with 77,602 tons.

With regards to particulate matter emissions, Region 4 topped the list as the
major producer with 346,214 tons. Eighty six percent of these came from stationary
sources. Region 4 contributed almost 40 percent PM to the nationwide total of
871,757 tons while Caraga contributed only 8.2 percent or 2,525 tons of PM to the
nationwide total, Table 2.2. On the other hand, the highest VOC occurred in Region 7
with 65,224 tons followed by Region 4 with 22,293 tons. The lowest were in Caraga
with 22 tons and Region 2 with 3,596 tons, Table 2.6.

Laws Promulgated, Polices and Programs Implemented

A total of 17 policies (Administrative Orders, Memorandum Circulars, and

Memorandum Orders) affecting the atmosphere were issued by DENR in 2001 to
2002. Noteworthy of these policies were the interim guidelines for the designation of
an airshed. An airhsed is a contiguous area with common sources of air pollution and
weather or meteorological conditions which affect the interchange and diffusion of
pollution in the surrounding atmosphere. The designation of airsheds is pursuant to
the Clean Air Act of 1999.

Nine interim airsheds have been designated: the Metro Manila airshed
includes NCR, Region III except Nueva Ecija, and Region IVA except Quezon; Metro
Cebu Airshed; the Cagayan de Oro City, Geothermal Aished; Davao Airshed; Naga
City airshed; Baguio City Airshed, and the Municipalities of La Trinidad, Itogon,
Sablan and Tuba – collectively known as BLIST Airshed; Agusan del Norte Airshed;
and the Zamboanga City Airshed.

HIGHLIGHTS OF RESULTS

The highlights provide an analysis first on the stock of water resources, man-
made structures related to water delivery systems as well as related socio-economic
factors. This is followed by the discussion on the factors related to the flows, that is
the utilization of the resource, the impacts on the resource such as depletion and
degradation, and the government as well as the private sector’s response to mitigate
the impacts or restore it to some desired quality.

However, given the limitations on the data there is no attempt to relate these
different variables.

a. Stocks and Inventories

a.1. Water Stock and Flow

Freshwater consists of both ground and surface water. The stock of

groundwater was estimated at 242,148 million cubic meters (MCM) in 1992 based on
the Philippine System of integrated Economic and Environmental Accounts (PSEEA)
estimate of NSCB (2003). This decreased to 179,210 MCM in 2001 or an average
annual reduction of 3.78 percent, Figure 1. On the other hand, the stock of surface
water was estimated at 156,919 MCM in 1992 and went up to 193,091 MCM in 2000
which translated to an annual average increase of 2.33 percent, Figure 2.

Water as a renewable resource is cyclical and is recharged by precipitation.

a.2. Socio-Economic Factors

The country’s water resource has to support a population growing at an

average annual rate of 2.32 percent, estimated at 68.6 million as of the 1995 count and
76.5 million based on the 2000 census.

Class A Class B Class C Class D Class AA

The Inventory of Classified Water Bodies released by the Department of

Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) showed that in December 2002 there
were only 3 out of the 501 classified water bodies belonging to class AA, that is,
water having watersheds which are uninhabited and otherwise protected and thus
require only approved disinfection in order to meet the National Standards for

Compendium of Philippine Environment Statistics 2004 3-2

 Water

Drinking Water (NSDW) of the Philippines. The three class AA water bodies were
located in the upper reach of Nagan River, Apayao Province, Guinabasan River, Cebu
and Lipadas River, Davao City. On the other hand, there were 159 water bodies
classified under class A, (Figure 3) i.e., sources of water supply that require complete
treatment (coagulation, sedimentation, filtration and disinfection) in order to meet the
NSDW. These class A water bodies were distributed as follows: 67 in Luzon, 38 in
the Visayas and 53 in Mindanao.

As of 2003, the operating economic zones all over the country covered a total
area of 12,358.7 hectares. Majority of these were found in Region 4 with 26 eco-
zones and an area of 2,283.3 hectares. There were other economic zones listed as
development in progress, approved/registered and proclaimed with an area of
792,643.2 hectares.

As indicated in the Inventory of DENR, there were 181 water bodies classified
under class C, i.e., Industrial Water Supply Class I (for manufacturing processes after
treatment), Fishery Water (for the propagation and growth of fish and other aquatic
resources), and Recreational Water Class II (for boating, etc.); while there were only
16 classified under class D, i.e. Industrial Water Supply Class II (for cooling, etc.).
Water for agriculture, irrigation, livestock watering, etc. and, other inland water, by
their quality, belong to this classification.

Water resource utilization which is directly affected by increased population

and economic progress is taking its toll on the country’s water resources. The
quantity of water demand from groundwater amounted to 9,599 MCM in 2001 from
7,307 MCM in 1992, increasing on the average by 2.77 percent annually, Figure 4. In
2000, industrial use accounted for a bigger proportion of groundwater demand (14

Compendium of Philippine Environment Statistics 2004 3-3

 Water

percent) compared with that of domestic use. Across regions, Region IV accounted
for about 26.8 percent of total groundwater demand, Table 3.1.

The quantity of water abstracted from surface water amounted to 36,925.80

MCM in 2000 compared to 33,509.4 MCM in 1992 or an average annual increase of
1.08 percent. Surface water was primarily used for agriculture, accounting for about
95.4 percent or 32,236.8 MCM of the total demand in 2000.

It is important to note however, that in 2000, the industrial demand for

groundwater was much higher than that for surface water with 4, 340.9 MCM (94.7
percent) and 242.3 MCM (5.4 percent), respectively.

c. Environmental Impacts

The rapid increase in water demand from domestic, industrial and agriculture
users, compounded by the heavy pollution loads caused by the disposals of the same
users and climatic changes, resulted in the depletion and degradation of the country’s
water resources posing threats on the sustainability of these resources and related
ecosystems and on the health of the general populace.

The Physical Asset Accounts compiled for groundwater showed that from
1992 to 2001 recharge was much lower than water withdrawal which continued to
increase. With such trend, groundwater was being depleted annually on the average
by 2.6 percent. Depletion as defined here is abstraction beyond the replenishment
rate. Estimated depletion for 2001 was 7,593 million cubic meters (see Figure 7).

In the case of surface water, recharge was higher than the withdrawals from
1992 to 1994. However, from 1995 to 2000 withdrawal was higher than recharge and
estimates showed that the highest depletion in surface water occurred in 2000 with
36,464 million cubic meters.

With regards to water quality of surface water, only the monitoring stations of
the rivers of Metro Manila, particularly Pasig, Marikina, San Juan, Paranaque and
Tullahan-Tenejeros Rivers submitted reports. From 1995 to 2002, San Juan River had
the highest annual average Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) concentration with
28.7 mg/L. In 2002, the said river had 34.8 mg/L. On the other hand, the lowest
annual average BOD concentration from 1995 to 2002 can be found in Markina River
with 8.0 mg/L. In 2002, the river had the lowest concentration among the rivers of
NCR with 12.1 mg/L (see Figure 8).

Conversely, Marikina River consistently reflected the highest concentration of

dissolved oxygen from 1996 to 2002 with 4.4 mg/L. In 2002, the DO concentration
of the river was 5.0 mg/L. On the other hand, San Juan River showed the lowest

average of DO with 1.8 mg/L from 1996 to 2002. The annual average for 2002 river
was 3.0 mg/L (see Figure 9).

Data on harmful algal blooms (Pyrodinium blooms) monitored from 1992 to

2002 showed that this has become a regular occurrence in Philippine waters indicative
of the extent of degradation of Philippine water bodies. Pyrodinium produces
saxitoxin, a suite of toxins that cause Paralytic Shellfish Poisoning (PSP). Sad to say
that even Honda Bay of Palawan was infested with the blooms in 2001 and 2002.
Occurrences of the blooms were also recorded in Bais Bay of Dumaguete, Cancabato

and San Pedro Bays of Tacloban, Masinloc Bay of Zambales, Mandaon and
Milgagros of Masbate, and Juag Lagoon of Sorsogon in 2002. Fish kill
(Prorocentrum minimum) also occurred in Bolinao, Pangasinan in 2002 (see Table
3.15).

Based on the list of 93 rivers surveyed in Luzon Island from 1989 to 2001, 11
were identified as dead rivers. Five of these dead rivers can be found in the province
of Bulacan and they are: Balagtas, Bocaue, Guiguinto, Marilao and Meycauyan
Rivers. Hagonoy/Labangan River of Bulacan and San Fernando River of Bacolor
Pampanga were considered as highly polluted river. From the 93 rivers surveyed, 47
were considered not polluted.

d. Response to Environmental Impacts

Currently there are five government units charged with the management of the
country’s water resources. The National Water Resources Board (NWRB) which was
created in 1974 as the government coordinating and regulating agency for all water
resources management development activities. It is tasked with the formulation and
development of policies on water utilization and appropriation, the control and
supervision of water utilities and franchises, and the regulation and rationalization of
water rates. The Local Water Utilities Administration (LWUA) is responsible for the
supply of water outside of Metro Manila and is also tasked with the creation of local
Water Districts (WDs) in the municipalities. The National Irrigation Administration
(NIA) manages the irrigation facilities in support of the needs of the agriculture
sector.

For the regulation of water quality, the responsibility is divided between the
Department of Health (DOH) for drinking water and the Water Quality Management
Section of Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) for the
regulation of sewerage discharges and industrial effluents. The DENR is also
generally responsible for the protection of watersheds except for a few that are
assigned to the NIA and NAPOCOR.

The privatized Metropolitan and Waterworks and Sewerage System (MWSS)

is responsible for the water supply and sewerage disposal in the greater Metro Manila.
MWSS service area is divided into the West and East Zones. MWSS granted the
concessions to two different private companies in order to promote competition and
generate yardstick information for more effective regulation. The West Zone accounts
for about 60 percent of the population and of water connections in the service area
and is also more densely populated. It is bounded in the west by the coastal area of
Manila Bay, where groundwater depletion has already lowered water tables increasing
pumping costs and causing saline water intrusion. Because of an older pipe
distribution network, the West Zo ne is characterized by a higher rate of non-revenue
water (estimated to be 60-70 percent in comparison to 50-55 percent for the East
Zone)11 .

As of 2002, the total abstraction rate granted by NWRB to different

individuals/organizations in all regions amounted to 22,717.3 liters per second for
both groundwater and surface water. Surface water accounted for 12,060.2 liters per
second while groundwater accounted for 10,657.0 liters per second (see Tables 1and
2).

Permits granted for groundwater abstractio n were primarily intended for the
following uses: irrigation at 58 percent; followed by industrial at 23 percent;
municipal at 12 percent; and the rest for fisheries, commercial, and livestock. NCR
had the highest abstraction rate granted for groundwater with 2,839 liters per second
followed by Region I with 2,311 liters per second (Table 1 and Figure 10).

In the case of surface water, 63 percent of the permitees granted used the
water abstracted for irrigation purposes, 18 percent for power, and 9 percent for
commercial purposes. The rest was divided among domestic, fisheries, industrial and

HIGHLIGHTS OF RESULTS

Land Use

Land devoted to agricultural use increased to 10.18 million hectares in 2000

compared to the 9.9 million hectares reported in 1988 or an annual addition of about
23,093 hectares, Table 4.1. The Land and Soil Environmental Accounts of NSCB
estimated a total of 29,878 hectares in the uplands that were opened up for kaingin
activities from 1988 to 2000. The results showed, however, that kaingin only
contributed 10.8 percent to the total increase in agricultural land area for the twelve-
year period.

On the other hand, forest land (with adequate vegetation cover) posted a
reduction of 5.4 million in 1997 from 6.8 million hectares in 1988 which translated to
a yearly decline in stock of about 140,000 hectares. Thus the area under forestland
use was decreasing at a rate of 2.1 percent per year or a total of 20.6 percent for the
period covered (1988 to 1997). The reduction in forestland was attributed to
deforestation activities such as logging, forest conversion, and kaingin activities. If
this trend continues and with a slow rate of regeneration and reforestation, there
would be no more land left for forest use in about of 50 years.

The construction of residential buildings in the Philippines increased to 7,910

in 2001 from 7,258 in 2000. However, in terms of floor area, the residential buildings
constructed in 2001 occupied only 480 thousand square meters compared to 489
thousand square meters in 2000. From 2000 to 2001, majority of the constructions
were found in the island of Luzon with Region 4 reporting the highest number. In
terms of floor area, it was also Luzon which posted the largest residential construction
with Region 4 again reporting the largest share (see Table 1).

On the other hand, the construction of national public roads by surface type
expanded steadily from 1992 to 2001 but slightly went down in 2002. In 2001,
construction of national roads reached a total of 31,988 kilometers. Concrete roads
and gravel type roads accounted for 35.4 percent and 34.8 percent, respectively of the
surface area of national public roads. The rest were asphalt roads (31.3 percent) and
earth-based (8.5 percent) roads. In 2002, construction of national public roads went
down to 30,030 kilometer for the concrete, asphalt, gravel, and earth surface roads.
The concrete type of road surface accounted for 39.7 percent of all types of roads
while the gravel type accounted for 34.4 percent of all types of surface roads, Table
4.4.

As of end of 2002, length of local roads constructed by type of surface reached

a total of 171,770.8 kilometers slightly shorter than the 171,980.7 kilometers reported
in 2000, (Tables 4.5 A, B, and C). In the three-year span, 2000 to 2002, Region IV
maintained 10 percent share of the total local road constructed while the National
Capital Region accounted for only 2.2 percent.

Year

Based on the Land and Soil Environmental Accounts released by NSCB, a

total 34,207 hectares were converted from agricultural to other uses from 1988 to
2000 or an average of 2,831 hectares per year. All through the accounting period,
conversion peaked in 1991, 1994 and 1998. The year 1998 recorded the highest
agricultural land conversion where accounted for 17 percent of the total lands
converted to other uses. Of the16 regions in the country, Region 4 was the most
vulnerable to land conversion. (see Figure 1 and Table 4.16).

Use of Fertilizer

The production and importation of fertilizer produc ts (and consequently, their

corresponding plant nutrients) decreased from 1995 to 2002. The average annual
production of fertilizer products amounted to 1,281.6 thousand metric tons, declining
annually on the average by 0.6 percent. Importation of fertilizer products on the other
hand, posted an average annual amount of 1,108.5 thousand metric tons which
translates into an average annual growth of –3.8 percent. Table 4.4B.

Natural Calamities

In 2001, five major tropical storms wrecked havoc to the country. The
estimated cost of destruction totaled P6.9 billion. This affected about 758,928
families or 3.67 million people all over the country. In 2002, six typhoons visited the
country which affected 499,966 families or 3.35 million people. There were other
natural calamities i.e. earthquake, flashflood/flooding, etc. that struck the country in
2002 which affected 11,327 families or 53,960 people all over the country. These
calamities contributed also to erosion of the soil.

Environmental Impacts of Activities and Events

Physical land degradation and nutritional loss were observed while various
natural calamities changed the landscape of large areas in selected regions of the
country. The creeping urbanization led to the massive conversion of agricultural land
to other economic uses. Agricultural land which have been given up for residential,
commercial and industrial purposes displaced lowland farmers resulting to upland
migration. Hence, along with the increase in agricultural land conversion, an
increasing trend in areas used for kaingin purposes was noted in the uplands.

The change in soil quality expressed in terms of eroded soil from lowland and
upland agriculture (i.e. involving farming activities in the upland, hilly and highland
pedo-ecological zones) is shown in Table 4.3. Soil erosion from agricultural areas
including kaingin was estimated at about 338 million metric tons in 1988 and 347
million metric tons in 2000 for a given area of 9.9 million hectares of the total land
area for temporary and permanent crops. This indicates that approximately 342,498
metric tons of soil was being eroded annually (NSCB, 2003).

Policies on Land and Soil Resources

A total of 8 policy issuances (Republic Act, DENR Administrative Orders,

Memorandum Circulars, and Memorandum Orders) affecting land and soil resources
were approved and passed by the government from 2001 to 2002. The most
important policy issued is Republic Act 9003, an Act Providing for an Ecological
Solid Waste Management Program, Creating the Necessary Institutional Mechanisms
and Incentives, Declaring Certain Acts Prohibited and Providing Penalties,
Appropriating Funds thereof, and for other Purposes.

The Ecological Solid Waste Management Act of 2000 set guidelines and targets
for solid waste avoidance and volume reduction through source reduction and waste
minimization measures, including composting, recycling, re-use, recovery, green charcoal
process, and others, before collection, treatment and disposal in appropriate and
environmentally sound solid waste management facilities in accordance with ecologically
sustainable development principles. It also ensured the proper segregation, collection,
transport, storage, treatment and disposal of solid waste through the formulation and
adoption of the best environmental practice in ecological waste management excluding
incineration. And lastly, it strengthened the integration of ecological solid waste
management and resource conservation and recovery topics into the academic curricula of
forma l and non-formal education in order to promote environmental awareness and action
among the citizenry.

MINERAL AND ENERGY RESOURCES

Highlights of Results

Mining as an industry is vital to both the national and regional economy.

Minerals provide the basic materials for manufacturing metallic and non- metallic
goods, and are a source of foreign exchange earnings.

a. Social and Economic Activities and Natural Events

The Philippine metallic mineral production, particularly copper production

continued to drop from a high of 525.2 thousand dry metric tons (DMT) in 1993 to
79.2 thousand DMT in 2002, which trans lates to an annual decline of 15.3 percent.
Silver production reported a contraction, from 32.8 thousand kilograms in 1992 to 8.8
thousand kilograms in 2002 or an annual drop of 11.3 percent. This was offset by the
continued expansion in gold production which registered an annual average growth of
3.1 percent from 1992 to 2002. (Figure 1)

On the other hand, the production of non- metallic mineral resources

particularly sand and gravel and limestone, used for cement manufacturing, posted an
annual average growth of 8.3 percent and 5.6 percent, respectively, from 1992 to
2002. These type of minerals are essential to the construction industry since they
provide the materials required by the various construction projects of both the
government and private sectors, Table 1.

Conversely, coal production continued to show improvements in production

starting 1997 to 2002, except in 2001 where it posted a slower production. In 2002,
coal production registered the highest production growth since 1993 with a total
production of 1,645.7 thousand metric tons (see Table 1 and Figure 2).

 Mineral and Energy

With regards to the Philippine energy resources, the generating capacity of

power plants had been steadily increasing from 1992 to 2002 posting an average
annual growth of 7.4 percent. It is important to note that, the use of natural gas to
produce energy which began in 1998 jumped significantly from 3 megawatts in 1998
to 1,063 megawatts in 2001 and 2,763 megawatts in 2002. On the other hand, energy
generation using diesel/oil slowed down in 2002 with 3,527 megawatts (24 percent of
the total installed generating capacity) compared to 5,201 megawatts (70 percent) in
2000 (see Table 2 and Figure 3). The increase in the use of natural gas for electricity
generation can be attributed to the discovery of natural gas in Palawan.

with 2,518, 3,963 and 1,931 megawatts, respectively, Table 2.

Energy generated is primarily consumed by the residential, industrial and

commercial sectors. As of 2002, the biggest consumer of energy was the residential
sector with 37 percent of the total consumption of 48,468 million kilowatt hour,

followed closely by the industrial sector with 36 percent and commercial with 27
percent (see Figure 4).

b. Environmental Impacts of Activities and Events

In polishing off mineral and energy raw materials for commercial use, further
processing is required. This procedure emits toxic wastes. These chemical wastes
create adverse effects on the environment such as: siltation, chemical pollution, land
degradation, contamination of domestic water supply, ground subsidence, and
encroachment of ancestral lands and domains.

In 2002, Region XIII reported 174,854 metric tons of mine wastes produced
and contained from metallic mineral mining. On the other hand, the mil tailings
produced and contained coming from Region XIII and CAR totaled 78,375 metric
tons.

On the other hand, based on the report of three non- metallic mining companies
to the Mines and Geosciences Bureau, these companies produced and contained
48,936 metric tons and 1,321.8 metric tons of mine wastes and mil tailings,
respectively.

Exploration activities for both mineral and energy resources demand highly
skilled manpower vis-a-vis hazards brought by the job. The risks that accompanied
the nature of work resulted to unavoidable situations such as: injuries, deaths,
contaminations, and alike. As shown in Figure 5, mining accidents incidence rate
showed improvement from 1999 to 2002 after a continued increase in 1995 to 1998.
The slow down in the frequency rate of mining accidents from 1994 to 2002 resulted
from the improvement of safety measures adopted by the mining industry.

c. Responses to Environmental Impacts

A total of 6 policy issuances (Executive Orders, DENR Administrative Orders,

Memorandum Circulars, Memorandum Orders and Joint DENR DOE Administrative
order) affecting the mines sector were added to the approved policies issued from
1996 to 2000.

d. Stocks and Inventory

As of 2002, the Mines and Geosciences Bureau estimated that the Philippine
stock of metallic mineral resources were as follows: 1,4391.61 million metric tons of
copper reserve (updated), 533.51 million metric tons of nickel reserve (updated), and
794.9 million metric of gold reserve (updated) as compared to the 1992 stock levels of
3,951.9 million metric tons of copper, 150.7 million metric tons of gold and 1,172.9
million metric tons of nickel.

On the non- metallic minerals, limestone and the related type of minerals as
well as aggregated non- metallic mineral (andesites, basalt etc.) dominated the
reserves.

Highlights of Results

The Philippines continues to experience rapid increase in population which

poses serious constraints on the environment as well as on the capability of the
government to provide basic services. This is accompanied by growing urbanization.
The continuous influx of migrants into premier cities and urban centers result in
overcrowding and larger demand for housing, infrastructure and services which create
greater environmental problems, such as pollution, poor sanitation, inadequate
garbage collection and disposal, inadequate sewerage system, traffic congestion, and
proliferation of slum and squatter settlements. Metro Manila, for instance, is faced
with these environmental challenges at present.

Being prone to natural disasters, the Philippines is stricken by major

calamities, such as typhoons, earthquakes, floodings and landslides. The occurrences
of these disasters bring about severe destruction of the environment as well as
damages to life and property.

Population

Population of the Philippines in 1948 was counted at 19.2 million which

almost doubled after 12 years at 36.6 million. Population continued to grow reaching
60.7 million in 1990, 68.6 million in 1995 and 76.5 million in 2000. The annual
average growths of the total population for the periods 1980-1990 and 1990-2000
were 2.35 percent and 2.34 percent, respectively. Among the regions, the
Autonomous Region of Muslim Mindanao and Southern Tagalog registered the
highest population growth at 3.86 percent and 3.72 percent, respectively for 1995-
2000, Table 6.1.

The problem in the country’s growing population is reflected in terms of

incidence of poor families. In 1997 and 2000, 31.8 percent and 33.7 percent of
households were considered poor. Among the regions, the Autonomous Region of
Muslim Mindanao showed the highest incidence of poor families with 57.3 percent
and 66 percent in 1997 and 2000, respectively. The National Capital Region
registered the lowest incidence of poor families with 6.4 percent and 8.7 percent for
the same years.

Population and Energy Consumption

Population growth contributes to more energy usage. From 1990 to 1995

consumption of energy increased at an annual average of 5.0 percent while population
grew at 2.34 percent. Energy consumption from 1995 to 2000 went up farther to an
annual average growth of 8 percent and a population which grew at 2.32 percent
annually. With this trend, it may be safe to conclude that population growth is directly
proportional to the consumption of energy.

Housing and Infrastructure

With the growing population, the provision of housing becomes a major

concern of the government. Through its National Shelter Program, households
throughout the country were provided housing assistance at a combined value of
P259.6 million for the period 1992 to 2002. Table 2 shows the number of shelter
security units constructed, financed and/or administered by the different housing
agencies of the country. It should be noted that the shelter security units provided by
the NHA and HIGC which include resettlement, core hous ing units, slum upgrading,
sites and services, etc. and guaranty programs, special projects and managed
relocation projects, etc., respectively declined in 2001 and 2002.

government constructed 30,030 kilometers of different surface types of national road

which represents only a one percent increase from that of 2000. On the other hand,
bridges (permanent and temporary) with a total length of 330 kilometers were
constructed in 2002, an increase of almost 15 percent from that of 2000 expenditure.

Of the total households in the country in 2000, 69.3 percent had access to
sanitary toilet and 76.3 percent had access to safe drinking water. In 2002, total
household with access to sanitary toilet went down to 68.7 percent while the total
household with access to safe drinking water increased to 83.2 percent (Figure 1).
Table 3 presents the percentage of households with access to safe drinking water and
sanitary toilet by region.

The total health expenditures of the country in 2002 in current terms was
placed at P115.4 million. In real terms, however, the growth was placed at -4.0
percent (over 2000’s 5.0 percent) that is from a P34.9 million health spending in 2000
the country decreased it’s spending to P32.0 million in 2002.

From 1993 to 2002, flooding was the number one natural disaster that
occurred in the country. This was followed by earthquakes, destruc tive typhoons and
landslide. In 2002, the total value of damages to property (agriculture, infrastructure
and private property) as a result to natural disasters amounted to P1.8 billion.
Damages due to floodings/flashfloods reached P912.8 million while damages due to
destructive typhoons was estimated at P829.6 million (see Table 6.10h). The
occurrence of floodings/flashfloods and landslides is due to the diminishing forest
cover of the country.
