LLDA Green Building

LLDA received the Design Certification as the 1st ever Philippine Government

Structure to be accredited as a “Green Building” by Building Ecologically Responsive

Design Excellence (BERDE) in conjunction with the Green Buildings Council of the

Philippines.

The Two-Star certification was awarded to Sec. Neric Acosta during the Green

Philippines 2015, 5th International Total Green Movement Exhibition and Conferences

at SMX Convention Center Manila, Pasay City on September 25, 2015.

According to Secretary Acosta, “The LLDA Green Building is a living testament of the

agency’s commitment to preserve and protect the Earth and its ecosystems and

defines the very purpose of our work and mission: ibalik ang luntiang yaman at diwa

ng lawa”.

Learning from indigenous knowledge, the structure is raised on stilts, which minimizes

human impact on the natural surroundings. A constructed wetland replicates the

Laguna de Bay and serves as microcosm of a restored, balanced ecology that is

envisioned for the entire Laguna de Bay Basin.

Passing the stringent international standards set by BERDE, the LLDA headquarters

is designed to reduce its electric consumption by at least 20% with its shallow building

width maxims natural daylight with wide windows that allow natural ventilation. The

pervious pavement, the green roof, the wetland pond and other landscaping features

significantly cool the building. The rainwater catchment system provides water for

toilets and urinals. A material recovery facility (MRF) is installed for the efficient waste

management of the entire complex.

The new LLDA headquarters exudes an atmosphere that is light and airy. Its design

has created more open spaces with gardens and ponds. Aside from the aesthetic

2

value of these open spaces, the improved lightning and ventilation increases work

productivity and efficiency. For workers and visitors alike, the LLDA Green Building

provides a healthy and refreshing respite from the concrete, highly urbanized areas of

the metropolis.

LLDA Green Building Tour

As part of the IEC campaign of the Authority and in order to orient the stakeholders of

the features and amenities of the Green Building, regular green building tour is

conducted to stakeholders. During the period, tours were conducted to Ms. Lala Roque

of GMA 7, Commission of Human Rights, DENR NCR and EMB Region III Officials,

among others. The showcases during the tours are the green features like natural

sewage treatment, natural ventilation, rainwater harvesting, and pocket gardens.

The Rationalization Plan (RatPlan) Implementation

The RatPlan implementation which started in 2010 has finally reached its last phase

with the filling-up of six (6) Division Chiefs and three (3) Department Managers on

August 24 and 26, 2015, respectively. Appointments have been endorsed by

Secretary Acosta and approved by the LLDA Board of Directors.

Also part of the implementation is the outsourcing of janitorial services. Eight (8) utility

workers from Care Best International Inc. Philippines (CBII Phils.) was contracted out

with a three-year contract period from July 1, 2015 to June 30, 2018.

Updating of the LLDA Masterplan

After 20 years of implementing the 1995 LLDA Masterplan, the LLDA is now updating

the Laguna de Bay Region Masterplan. This is to cope with the challenges of the

present times, such as the onset of climate change, implementation of new laws, new

technologies and thrust of the Aquino Administration for the Public-Private

Partnerships (PPAs).

In preparation for this undertaking, inception report has been submitted by the

Management Consultant, former AGM Dolora Nepomuceno, on July 8, 2015.

In line with this, a Stakeholder Consultation was held at the LLDA Green Building on

September 11, 2015. The event was participated by different stakeholders of the

Laguna de Bay Region. Presented during the consultation are the following: LdB

situationer, CALABARZON RDP, Rizal DRRM Plan, Water Supply and Sewerage

System Development Projects, LAKEHead and Completed LISCOP Projects and

DPWH-LLDA Flood Control Projects.

Breakout sessions as part of the workshop was done to: a) validate and prioritize key

issues, b) develop basin strategies and c) detail the implementation plan.

The TWG is now in the process of data gathering for write-ups of the different modules

for the Masterplan. Writeshop is scheduled in November 2015.

3

Next steps would be the presentation of the draft masterplan to the Management

Committee for comments. Finally, the TWG will seek its approval by the Board of

Directors in the latter part of November 2015.

LLDA Information Systems Strategic Plan (ISSP)

Pursuant to Section 1 of National Computer Center (NCC) Memorandum Order No.

237, requiring all government agencies including GOCCs to formulate its Information

Systems Strategic Plan (ISSP) to rationalize the allocation of government funds for IT

purposes, the 2015-2017 LLDA ISSP was crafted and approved by the Management

and submitted to DOST-ICTO on June 26, 2015 for its final approval/concurrence. The

ISSP is for endorsement to MITHI steering committee.

Policy, Planning and Performance Evaluation The Terms of Reference (TOR) on the conduct of a 3rd party perception survey by end of 2015 has been approved by the Technical Committee and signed by Sec. Neric Acosta on August 7, 2015. The engagement of consultant for the survey is now on bidding stage and the awarding is on November 2015. Semestral assessment was conducted on July 29 to August 26, 2015, based on the submitted self-rated OPCR, 2015 Work Program and accomplishment report of each Division. The final overall organizational rating for 2014 OPCR of different divisions have been concurred and approved by the Secretary on September 9, 2015 with an average rating of 4.15 and “Very Satisfactory” adjectival rating. Partnerships and Collaborations

a. Ecological Recycling Project (e-Rec Project) The project ultimate goal is to find a solution for the current nutrient imbalance associated with local and global environmental issues. It also aims to develop a transdisciplinary framework of adaptive watershed governance that can link nutrient cycling and human well-being and so improve social involvement in biodiversity conservation and environmental restoration and facilitate sustainable socio-ecological systems. The International Linkages and Research and Development Division (ILRDD) and the University of Santo Tomas (UST) representative had a site visit at Lake Pandin, San Pablo City, Laguna in coordination with the Samahan ng Nagkakaisang Kababaihang Bangkera ng Lawa ng Pandin (SBKBLP) on April 30, 2015 for the possible Community-Based Resource Management (CBRM) case study for e-Rec Project. On June 23, 2015, reconnaissance survey was undertaken in Sta. Rosa City as an alternative site for CBRM.

b. FACE Project

4

The Flood Awareness and Community Empowerment (FACE), a 3-year project funded by Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) under the Technical Cooperation for Grassroots Project started in October 2013 and will end by September 2016, it aims to capacitate the Disaster Risk Reduction Management (DRRM) Officers and the respective communities in the project sites in Angono, Sta. Rosa and Calamba City through the installation and operation of a simple community-based flood observation system and to manage the information generated by the system. The first phase in 2014, three (3) web camera flood observation system were installed in each project site. For the 2nd phase this 2015, during its mission on June 22-30, 2015, additional camera system in Angono, Rizal was installed coupled with observation tour and site survey in Calamba and Sta. Rosa were also undertaken together with JICA Yokohama partners.

c. PhilWAVES: Ecosystem Accounts Inform Policies for Better Resource Management of Laguna de Bay

The development of the ecosystem accounts is based on data collection and analysis conducted by the LLDA, the agency responsible for the water and land management of the Laguna Lake Basin.

Technical staff from the different units of the LLDA conducted the analyses supported by international and local experts under the World Banks’s Wealth Accounting and the Valuation of Ecosystem Services (WAVES) Global Partnership Programme.

A Dissemination Forum on Ecosystem Accounting in Laguna de Bay Basin was held on October 2, 2015 at Sulo Hotel, Quezon City. Discussed were the four (4) accounts namely: Land, Flood Retention, Water Quality and Fisheries. A total of 70 stakeholders attended the forum. Participants were from partner agencies like World Bank, Australian Bureau of Statistics, NEDA and other stakeholders such as academe, NGOs and Government agencies like DOST and GCG, among others. Corporate Legal Affairs The LLDA through the Legal and Adjudication Division shall request for Presidential Proclamation for the titling of LLDA properties, particularly for Taguig. Under administrative titling procedures, LLDA shall first secure a “Presidential Proclamation” over subject parcel of land in order to declare the same as “alienable and disposable” and thus capable of conveyance or disposition to qualified entities such as the LLDA. Upon issuance of the Presidential Proclamation, a “Special Patent Title” may then be applied for by the LLDA, which title shall be under the name of the Authority. The said property is scheduled for surveillance by the DPWH. For aquastructure operators who issued bouncing checks as payment for the arrearages, the LLDA has already filed a Complaint-Affidavit in March 2015 for violation of Batas Pambansa Bilang 22 with the Quezon City Prosecutor’s Office to address this matter. Case No. XV-03-INV-15A-00646 with a resolution on August 18, 2015, that the respondent be indicted and charged; bail recommended and Case No. XV-03-INV-15-E-03190 was dismissed on August 24, 2015 for insufficiency of evidence.

On shoreland matters, the Authority has filed a criminal case against Domingo Gracia’s Neighborhood Association for illegal occupation of shoreland areas with National Prosecution Service (NPS) Docket No. XV-16-INV-14L-01190 to the Taguig Prosecutor’s Office, now awaiting for the resolution of the case.

Compliance to Good Governance Commission (GCG)

On March 12, 2015, the GCG led by Comm. Rainier Butalid together with LLDA

contingents conducted field validation in line with its commitments and 2014

Accomplishments. Itinerary of the validation includes: visit of fishpen structures,

interview with FARMC representatives, fishpen operators and Environmental Army

members in Binangonan, Rizal and Hinulugang Taktak in Antipolo City. The LLDA

garnered an overall rating of 92.18% for the 2014 performance as communicated by

GCG on July 14, 2015 which qualifies for the grant of the 2014 Performance-Based

Bonus (PBB).

Water Quality Monitoring

a. Ambient Monitoring and Research

As of 3rd quarter this year, 562 stations were monitored for Ambient Water Quality, 27

stations for Lake Primary Productivity (LPP) and 70 stations for the Pasig River Unified

Monitoring System (PRUMS) in collaboration with DENR-EMB. Below are the findings

on pH and Dissolved Oxygen for Laguna Lake and tributary rivers:

Parameters Laguna Lake Tributary River

pH For the 3rd quarter, only stn. XVII consistently conformed to the DENR Class C criterion for pH set at 6.5 to 8.5. Station XVI always failed to meet the acceptable range for Class C. The pH of the Lake for this quarter ranged from 7.8 to 9.7.

Measure pH in all of the 35 tributary river stations ranging from 6.5 to 8.4 during the 3rd quarter of 2015, consistently passed the DENR Class C criterion. The lowest pH level was observed in Stn. 5 in July and in Stn. 10 in August while the highest pH level was recorded in Stn. 22 in September.

Dissolved Oxygen (DO)

The dissolved oxygen concentrations recorded from July to September in all of the nine (9) lake stations passed the DENR Class C criterion set at a minimum concentration of 5mg/L.

Out of the 35 tributary river stations monitored in the 3rd quarter, only (9) lake stations passed the DENR Class C criterion for DO and these were Stns. 4U, 8U, 13, 15, 16, 17, 17U, 19U and 22U.

6

The lowest DO concentration was 5.8 mg/L in Stn. I in September while the highest was in Stn. V in August at 18.3 mg/L.

There were fourteen (14) tributary river stations whose DO concentrations consistently failed the Class C criterion for DO and these were Stns. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 8M, 9, 10, 12, 18, 25 and 26. Eleven (11) tributary river stations yielded DO concentrations that sometimes complied and way below the minimum allowable level for Class C and these were Stns. 5U, 6, 11, 14, 19, 21, 22, 23, 24, 24U and 27. Jala-jala River was always dry from July to September that no sample was collected in this station.

Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD)

For the 3rd quarter of 2015, the results of the quarterly monitoring of BOD in July in all of the nine (9) lake stations consistently conformed to the DENR Class C criterion for BOD set at 10mg/L. Measured BOD concentrations for the entire Lake ranged from 6 to 8 mg/L.

Stations in Laguna Lake as mentioned above. Station I- West Bay Station V- Central Bay near Pasig River Station XVII – Sanctuary Station II- East Bay Station VIII – South Bay Station XVI – Sta. Rosa Station IV – Central Bay Station XV – San Pedro Station XVIII – Pagsanjan

A. River Rehabilitation Program

A.1. Conduct of Lakbay Ilog (River Survey)

As of September 2015, Twelve (12) river surveys were conducted. Details are shown

in the table below:

Date River System Issues/Remarks

1. March 5, 2015 Tunasan River (Muntinlupa City)

Participated by the LLDA team headed by the OIC-CDD, City ENRO of San Pedro, Laguna and LMO of Muntinlupa City. The river survey traversed the areas of San Pedro and Muntinlupa City and 10 stations were visited to determine the physical condition of the river, the existing land uses and identification of industries that discharge directly into the river.

2. March 4 and 19, 2015 Pila-Victoria-Nagcarlan River Basin

Undertaken along the river traversing Brgy. San Antonio, Pila, Laguna which was reported by the barangay officials that river water diminishes in the afternoon since it is being used by the farmers to irrigate their farmland. It was also observed the decreasing width of the river and flooding was another issue

3. March 12, 2015 River traversing Brgy. San Benito, Victoria, Laguna

Ocular survey of the river traversing Brgy. San Benito, Victoria, Laguna was validated because of the report made by the Councilor on the issue of flooding and the main source of the problem was identified due to the proliferation of voluminous water lilies, falling of trees and debris, deposit of solid wastes in the river that contribute to the clogging of the water ways.

4. May 6, 2015 Kalayaan, Laguna Jointly undertaken with Vice-Mayor Lazanas, Coun. Christopher Reamiro, the MPDC, MENRO and Barangay Officials of Longos, San Juan and San Antonio. Problems such as erosion in the upstream (Brgy. San Antonio) solid and liquid domestic wastes downstream area (Longos and San Juan) were observed, a biological indicator of good water quality.

5. May 14, 2015 Lumban, Laguna The survey started from the boundary of Pagsanjan and Lumban, Laguna. Problems identified include numerous small scale quarrying making the water turbid, a number of poultries, erosion of river banks, domestic wastes. Presence of digman and sea grasses was observed - a biological indicator of good water quality.

6. May 21, 2015 Cavinti, Laguna The 2 tributaries from Cavinti (Bumbungan river and Cavinti river) were surveyed. According to the LGU, the river feeding into Bumbungan Falls located in Brgy. Sumucab came from Sampaloc, Quezon. The downstream part of Bumbungan river is the Cavinti Eco-park which is one of the attractions of the municipality especially during summer. The other tributary is the Cavinti river. The upstream part is located in Brgy. Udia. The water feeding into the tributary is from Luisiana. The confluence of Cavinti and Bumbungan Rivers is in Brgy. Tibatib (the site of the LISCOP funded El Pueblo Salvador Eco-park) The water eventually feeds into Nakulo Falls and Magdapio (Pagsanjan) Falls.

7. June 17, 2015 Luisiana, Laguna The water is murky with foul smell emanating from backyard piggeries in Majayjay area. The volume of water that flows into the river is relatively low since it is being diverted to Botocan Power Plant. Possible sources of agricultural pollution are the

8

farmlots/ricefields. The river is being used for washing clothes, dishes and for bathing. Empty sachet of shampoos, laundry soap and other plastics were observed in the river banks and if not addressed might be a solid waste problem.

8. July 3, 2015 Pagsanjan, Laguna (Pagsanjan-Bumbungan River)

Majority of the resorts are located along the portion of the river with some residential houses. Disposal of solid and liquid wastes are directly being discharge into the river. Detergent soaps and shampoos are also considered sources of pollution. Presence of “sea grasses”, “pitaklat” and “asang-hito” covering almost half of the navigational lane limit the movement of watercrafts.

9. July 23, 2015 Majayjay, Laguna (Botocan, Dalitiwan, Olla, Initian and May-It River)

Presence and concentration of backyard and commercial hog farms; solid and liquid wastes from household are also apparent.

10. July 29, 2015 Magdalena, Laguna (Balanac River)

Accelerated/continuous erosion that brings out severe scouring; Quarrying; Pollution from the poultry houses/farm.

11. September 3, 2015 Lucban, Quezon (Kamatian, Palola, Lucban and Samil River)

Domestic waters directly flows into the river; the river easement has been occupied by illegal houses; backyard piggeries located along the river; no septic tank for old houses; agricultural inputs, i.e. pesticides, insecticides and fertilizers pollutes the water.

12. September 15, 2015 Taguig River System (boundaries of Pateros and Brgy. Ususan, Taguig)

Most of the establishments and settlements located along the river banks have no waste water treatment facilities and its sewage pipes are directed into the river; presence of black sludge, patches of algae and dumped with domestic wastes; households are directly discharging their waste water into the river; the downstream/river mouth of Tipas-Labasan is constricted with dense growth of water lilies; rampant shoreland reclamation for various land uses; wet market/talipapa located at Napindan River disposes garbage into the river.
