EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Proposed Improvement of Cotabato City-Marawi City Road (Parang-Malabang-Marawi City Section)

Chapter 1

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

This report presents the Initial Environniental Examination (IEE) for the proposed improvement of the existing Cotabato City-Marawi City (Parang-Malabang-Marawi Section) which is predominantly located in the Province of Lanao del Sur and partly in the Province of Maguindanao. The conduct and preparation of the IEE is undertaken by the Eilvironmental and Social Services Office (ESSO), Planning Service of the Department of Public Works & Highways (DPWH) to secure the Environniental Compliance Certificate (ECC) from the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR), prior to the project implementation.

The IEE, as a requirement by the DENR will serve as a supporting document for a possible loan application to be made by the Government of the Philippines (GOP) through the DPWH - Project Management Office International Bank for Reconstruction Developnient (PMO-IBRD) - for a possible implementation under the NRIMP Phase I1 Projects.

The methodology applied in this study consist of interviews, site inspection, gathering of primary and secondary data from local government units.

Assessment made during our ocular inspection for the proposed improvement of the road revealed that the road section that starts at Jct. Polloc (km 1873 + 000) in the municipality of Parang and terminates at the Jct. in Marawi City proper are paved with PCC, 75% of the existing road are in fairlpoor condition and 25% are in bad conditions.

The proposed project road is part of the Cotabato-Zaniboanga road, with a total length of 128.916 ltilometers is classified as a north-south backbone of the country's arterial road network.

The proposed roadway improvements consists of Rehabilitation of damaged PCC pavements with 200 mm thickness including repair of base and sub base, and the application of Asphalt Concrete Overlay with thickness of 50nim for the 128 kms project road. The carriageway width is 6.7m with 1.5m shoulder on both sides with gravel surfacing. There are no proposed bridge structures along the project road. The improvements also include provision of adequate drainage facilities.

While the road project is critical in the growth of local trade and commerce and in improving overall travel, it will, however, result to the involuntary acquisition of private and public assets, including displacement of people.

More specifically based on our assessment of affected structures, the project will have adverse impact on a total of 388 temporary structure (i.e. residential porches, brgy. waiting sheds, residence cum store and concrete fences) will be severely affected.

DPWH-Environmental and Social Services Office 1


Moreover, for minor temporary structure a total 605 (i.e. bamboo/wood fences, wooden store and wooden waiting sheds) will be marginally affected. A separate Resettlement Action Plan (RAP) will be undertaken to address this issue per LARR Policy of the Department. Also, the following hazards such as flooding, slope instability, and siltation are probable impacts. These are indicated in the Environmental Management Plan (EMP).

A11 Environmental Monitoring Plan is also presented in this report, which is intended for the continued observation and evaluation of the impacts during the entire phase of the project cycles.

Consultation with the Local Government Units is a requirement to secure endorsement and gain social acceptability of the project.

Hence, the improvementlupgrading of the road project will undoubtedly encourage investments and generate employment particularly in the far-flung municipalities. This would also function as an inter-regional link between Region IX or Western Mindanao Region and ARMM.

The proposed roadway improvements consists of Reblocking of damaged PCC pavements with 200 mm thickness including repair of base and subbase, and the application of Asphalt Concrete Overlay with thickness of 50 mm for the 129 krns project road. The carriageway width is 6.7m with 1.5m shoulder on both sides with gravel surfacing. The improvements also include provision of adequate drainage facilities.

There are no proposed bridge structures along the project road.

Project Cost : The project cost for the above mentioned proposal is estimated at P 593.78 Million. The project cost will finalized based on the detailed design estimates.

Project Schedule : Not yet available

Existing Road Condition :

The project road has a total length of 128.916 lcilometers and is divided into three sections, namely:

Section 1 : Parang (Jct. Po1loc)-Malabang (63.372 kms) Section 2 : Malabang-Pualas (25.084 kms) Section 3 : Pualas-Marawi City (40.460 kms)

Hereunder is a brief description~information of the present condition of each of the road sections:

Section 1 : Parang (Jct. Polloc) - Malabang 63.372 kms.

The road section is part of the Cotabato-Zamboanga Road, a national road classified as a north-south backbone of the country's arterial road network.

It starts at Jct. Polloc ( km 1873 +000) in the municipality of Parang and traverse northwards through hilly and rolling terrain up to Kapatagan and then turns westward through Balabagan down to the coastal plain of Malabang where it ends at a Jct. ( km 1936 +372 ) where the Cotabato-Zamboanga Road and Malabang - Marawi road intersects.

The section has a total length of 63.37 kilometers with PCC pavement, of which, 50.70 krns is in fair1 poor condition and 12.67 krns is in bad condition. The carriageway with is 6.70 meters and the shoulder with varies from 9 to 1.5 meter.



The existing drainage system of the road is in bad condition and lacks lateral and cross drains. There are notable segments that are already showing signs of pavement deteriotion which could be attributed to base failures.

Section 2 - Malabang- Pualas=25.084km

The road section forms parts of the east-west lateral and begins at Malabang Junction and terminates at Pualas Jct. of Lake Lanao Circumferential Road. The road alignment traverses rolling to mountainous terrain passing through the town of Malabang, Kalanogas and Pualas.

The 25.08-kilometer PCC paved road is composed of 20.06 km in fairlpoor condition and 5.02 km in bad condition. The carriageway with of the entire road section is 6.70 meters without road shoulder. The road section has intermittent eroded sections and cut slope failure as well as segments that lacks cross and lateral drains. The drainage system is generally in very bad condition.

Section 3 - Pualas- Marawi City=40.460 km

The road starts at Jct. Pualas and moves toward a northernly direction passing the towns of Ganassi, Madamba, Bacolod Grande, Madalum, Balindong, Marantao and terminates at the Jct. in Marawi City Proper. This road is paved with PCCP in fair to bad condition with a carriageway width of 6.7 m and shoulder width of 1.5 m both sides

Longitudinal and traverse craclts occur in some segments of the road. The horizontal and vertical alignment of the existing road runs mostly in rolling and some occasional shorts stretches of flat terrain.

D. Description of Project Phase:

Pre-Construction Phase

Activities to be undertaken in this stage cover at the necessary detailed plans, as follows; survey, site investigation, foundation investigation, soils and materials investigation, preparation of designs and project plans, preparation of specification, quantity and cost estimates, program of worlts, proposed construction schedule and estimated cash flow. A Resettlement Action Plan (RAP) will be prepared to address the issue in the acquisition of the right-of-way and submission of design report along with the preparation of Initial Environmental Examination (IEE) and bidltender documents.



As part of the pre-construction activities, location of works camps shall be determined in cooperation with the Local Government Units (LGU's) and the location shall be subject to the approval of the DPWH and LGU's concerned. If possible camps shall be located far from drinking water supply intakes. Cutting of trees shall be avoided and removal of vegetation shall be minimized. Water and latrine facilities shall be provided for employees.

Construction Phase

Immediately after the issuance of the Notice to proceed to the Contractor, a meeting between the Proponent and the Contractor will be held to discuss each and every responsibility stipulated in the contract.

The initial activities will be to mobilize -the required equipments, personnel and necessary materials to start the project at the job site. Construction of temporary facilities including campsite, bunkhouse, warehouse and stockroom will follow. The construction period is based on the work schedule to be prepared by the proponent.

Used oil lubricant shall be recovered and reused or removed from the site by the construction in full compliance with the national and local regulations. Oil waste must not be burned.

Safety Measures

During construction traffic personnel will be assigned to direct traffic to avoid accidents. The contractor will be required to install all safety measures during construction such the posting of the necessary danger sign, the wearing of helmets, safety shoes, and etc.

Operation and Maintenance

A well-designed and constructed road require minimal maintenance. Breakdown of pavements is usually traced to problems on drainage. Flooding of the roadway usually erode the sub-base which eventually cause the failure of the pavement. To ensure longer life of the road pavements, flooding should be avoided and part of the regular maintenance should include the cleaning and cleaning of clogged culverts, pipe drains and similar drainage structures. Not only will this prevent minor or major flooding of the road, but also will allow water to drain into the main river courses where these can be utilized for other purposes such as irrigation. Garbage should not be disposed near the canals and culverts. The District Engineering Office should maintain a pool of skilled labor and equipment for the repair and maintenance of the pavement road drainage on a regular basis. Annual appropriation for the operation and maintenance are provided in the DWPH budget. The maintenance of this road will be undertaken by the District Engineering Office. This will involve periodic inspection and to make necessary repairs for the structures to remain sound.



Abandonment

Abandonment of the project site shall take in the form of simple withdrawal of the equipment and the labor force from the area. 'The site and the exposed areas as a result of extraction of materials and work camps will be restored to natural land stable condition. Other construction related activities will be planted with suitable vegetation to improve its aesthetic view.

Building materials for work camp and other construction materials remaining after the completion of the project shall be turnover to the PMO-IBRD, DPWH.

ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING AND RECEIVING ENVIRONMENT


Chapter IV

DESCRIPTION OF ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING AND RECEIVING ENVIRONMENT

Physical Environment

Geographical Location

The province is bounded in the East by the province of Bukidnon, on the west by the Illana Bay, in the South by the province of Maguindanao and North Cotabato and in the North and Northwest, by the Province ofd Lanao del Norte. It surrounds the basin of Lalte Lanao, the largest lake in Mindanao and the second in the Philippines, next to Laguna de Bay.

The province can be reached through three major points of entry. One from the north, though the 36 kilometer concrete highway from Iligan City, another from the south, through the seaport in Malabang and from the Cotabato to Malabang route. The province can also be reached the 137 kilometer road from the Cagayan de Oro City Airport.

Land Area:

The land area of the province is 12,061.82 sq.km., including the City, of Marawi. This is based from the Department of Budget and Management (DBM) records, which is the bases of the Internal Revenue Allotment (IRA) of the respective municipalities of the province and of the province itself.

The Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) of the province of Lailao del Sur has recorded the total land area of Lanao del Sur at 423,998 hectares or 4,239.98 sq.km., based on the National Mapping and Resource Information Authority - (NAMRIA) records.

The total area of the province has about 3,873.20 sq.km., of water area, composed of lakes, rivers and swamps. There are about eight lakes in the province with a total area of about 366.78 sq.km. Lake Lanao having the biggest area of 347 sq.ltm.

Soil type:

The Bureau of Soils identified 11 types of soil common in the province, a large portion of which is suitable for rice and a corn. Salaman loam clay accounts for 0.52%, Ramain and Buaya-an loan clay with 0.50%, and Pu-an loam clay with 0.21%. All these are identified as good types of land suitable for agricultural cultivation.



The moderately good type of soil is the Binidayan silt loam which is 1 1.1%, while the fairly good soil but limited for cultivation are the adtuyo clay loam and Langkong Sandy loan and Kundarangan clay loam comprising about 33.3% land with a soil type limited to pasture and forest are the Malabang sandy loam, Adtuyo-bam Castillan Complex, Caromatan Silt Loam, Bolinao Silt loam, Kidapawan clay loam and Jansan c lay loam with aggregate percentage of 15.62%. Land with a soil type suitable for forestry is the mountain soil with 30.15%. Another soil type is the Kudarang loam clay, which comprise about 30.'5%.

Climate and Rainfalls:

The heavy wooded forest and mountains surrounding the province provide a natural shield against typhoons and floods. The elevation of the province is at 2,300 feet above sea level. This makes the climate range from a warm to near temperate around the Lake Lanao vicinity. The month of Jjanuary to April is generally dry season while the month of May to December is considered wet or rainy season.

'The rainfall pattern as recorded by PAGASA office located at the Mindanao State University Campus at Marawi City shows that the shortest monthly rainfall of 15.7mm from 2001 to 2004 happened on April 1, 2004. The largest monthly rainfall of 588.2mm has occurred on June 2002.

The moderate climate of the province is considered as one of the assets of the province in terms of potential for tourism it being known as the summer capital of the South.

Infrastructure:

Roads and Bridges

There are four types of roads in the province classified according to administration as national, provincial, municipal and barangay roads. Considerable length of the national road is mainly the Lake Lanao Circumferential road traversing the municipalities surrounding the Lake Lanao, the Narciso Ramos Highways, and the highways going down to the City of Iligan of 201.108 ltilometers including the KFAED Malabang-Sultan Gumander road with the municipality of Kapatagan having the longest national road with a total length of 19,000 kilometers. The shortest national road can be found in the municipality of Bubong with a total length of only 0.530 kilometers. These total lengths of national road exclude the four municipalities whose length of national road is not recorded.



Like -the national roads, all the 38 municipalities of the province have provincial roads with a total length of 447.085 kilometers with the Municipality of Ditsaan Ramain having the longest municipal road with a total of 38.750 kilometers while the municipality with the shortest provincial road is the municipality of Tamparan with a total length of 1.000 kilometers only. Seven municipalities do not have recorded length of provincial road.

With respect to the roads administered and maintained by the respective municipal government of the province, it has a total length of 412.495 excluding the eight municipalities whose municipal roads are not recorded. The Municipality of Mulondo is recorded to have the longest municipal road with a total length of 153.200 kilometers while the Municipality of Piagapo have the shortest municipality road of only 1.025 kilometers.

Comparing the three types of road network by administration in terms of length, municipal road network has the longest length followed by those under the administration of the provincial government. The road network under the administration of the national government only ranked number three in length as compared to the municipal and provincial road networks. The total national, provincial and municipal road of the province is 1,258.3 18 kilometers.

Regarding infrastructure on bridges, the DPWH recorded 37 bridges in the lst congressional district of the province. Majority of the bridges are located along the Marawi-Masiu road with a total of 23 bridges. Other bridges in the 1" district can be found in the Mulondo-Wao road, Mulondo-Kibaritan Section, bumbaran- Talaltag Section, and in Wao-Bumbaran Section. At the eastern side of the province moving to the southern part there are eight bridges located along the Bukidnon North Cotabato boundary section. In terms of length the Pantar Bridge along the boundary of the province and the province of lanao del Norte is the longest bridge in the province with a total length of 73.153 linear meters. The shortest bridge is located in the municipality of Taraka with a length of only 7.85 linear meters.

Sports, Recreation Facilities, and Cultural Centers

Sports and recreation facilities is available in the different municipalities of the province. The common sports facilities available are basketball courts, volleyball courts, and tennis courts that are usually constructed through the concerted efforts of youth organization in the locality with funding assistance from concerned personalities, particularly politicians.

Most of the major sports and recreation centers are concentrated in the City of Marawi with MSU sport complex at Mindanao State University-marawi Campus as the biggest sports and recreation center with a capacity capable of accommodating athletic meet. Other big sports and recreation center can also be found in the different parts of the City of Marawi and in some selected municipalities of the province.



Aside from sports and recreation facilities, cultural centers are also available to accommodate social gatherings and functions of the community. The Cultural Affairs Division of the provincial government recorded 266 cultural centers available in the 28 municipalities. The Municiality of Maguing has the great number of cultural centers with a total of 48. The rest of the municipalities do not have a recorded number of cultural centers.

Transportation

The province is accessible from the three major entry points through land transportation and from the seaport in the Municipality of Malabang. The one and only airport in Malabang that can accommodate domestic flights has not been operating since the controversial rehabilitation of the airport remains unresolved. The other entry points is from the northern parts from the City of lligan and the other one is from Cotabato City passing through the Municipalities of Sultan Kudarat, Parang and Matanog of the Maguindanao province. There are two other potential point of entries in the province one at the southwestern part taking the route from the Municipality of Sultan Gumander towards the Municiality of Sultan Naga Dimaporo of the province of Lanao del Norte and one at the northwestern side of the province taking off from the Municipality of Maguing to the Province of Bukidnon. Presently there is an ongoing effort of rehabilitating the road from Sultan Gumander to the Sultan Naga Diinaporo Municipality. At the northwestern side, the road connecting the province of Bukidnon is almost completed.

With regards to the number of vehicle available in the province, the actual number cannot be ascertained since some of the vehicles are registered in other Land Transportation Offices (LTO). But looking at the traffic flow in the City of Marawi give the impression that the volume of vehicle is so large that even after rush h o ~ r late in the afternoon the main roads in the City are traffic congested. But public utility vehicles from the City going to the rural areas are available only at daytime, usually until 7 o'clock in the evening.

Despite of the observable number of cars, the LTO records shows that as of January 2004 majority of the registered vehicle are private with a total of 1,437. the registered government owned vehicle is only 20 while the "for hire' registered vehicle is only 78.

It may be noted that according to LTO, the numbers of registered government vehicle exclude those owned by the provincial of Lanao del Sur.


Proposed lmprovement of Cotabato City-Marawi City Road (Parang-Malabang-Marawi City Section)

Water System

l'he major water source for consumption and households need is the Lake Lanao itself. Only the City of Marawi is supplied with pressured pump water supply but could not reach some of the Barangays in an elevated location. People from these Barangays used to have their water supply needs through personal water pumps or deep wells.

The Municipalities situated in elevated areas are having their water supply from the available springs and wells. Some concerned government agencies are presently implementing spring development and construction of deep wells projects. On record, 960 Barangays have been provided with deep wells and shallow wells by the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) in 1993 another 77 deep wells and 17 shallow wells were constructed in 1996. These figures may have doubled or even tripled since deep wells and spring development have been the favorite projects of both national and local public officials.

There are a few municipalities, particularly the municipalities of Bacolod Grande, Madalum, Madamba (along the national highways) and Ganassi, which are supplied with 3rd level gravity feed water supply. Part of the municipality of Calanogas along the national highway is also supplied with gravity feed water supply. Some of the municipalities at the eastern side of the province; namely the municipalities of Bubong, Buadipuso, and Ditsaan Ramain are also supplied with gravity feed water supply.

Nevertheless, the provincial government has recorded 1 1 major water system projects in 18 municipalities for the year 2002. The water system projects are mostly spring develcpment.

Electrict/Power Supply

The lake Lanao that drains through the 26 kilometers Agus River serves as the major source of power supply of the mainland Mindanao. Two of the four power generating plants of the National Power Corporation (NPC) are located in the province, the Agus 1 Hydroelectric Power Plant with a rated capacity of 80 megawatts is located right at the center of Marawi City. The other one is the Agus I1 Power Plant located at the municipality of Saguiaran with a rated capacity of 120 megawatts. Two power sub- stations of the NPC are also located in the province, the Saduc Power sub-station located at Saduc Marawi City and the Bubong power sub-station located at the Municipality of Bubong.

It may be important to note that even as Lalte Lanao is the source of power supply in mainland Mindanao, the people of Lanao do not enjoy the same low power rate of the other provinces. The services of the LASURECO are very poor in terms of maintenance and power distribution. The occurrence of power failure happen



everyday and or anytime of the day, which is discouraging to any form of economic activity that requires power supply or electricity. Also, there are municipalities, mostly in the 2"d congressional district, that do not have power supply at all.

Communications and Information System

There are five (5) major communication systems available in the province, namely: telegraph, telephone, post mail, two-way radio, radio and television.

Private telephone companies, particularly Globe and Smart, is also servicing the province through the installation various cell sites. Presently, majority of the municipalities can be reached through either of the two giants cell phones companies.

Social Environment

Demography

~ o ~ u l a t i o n and Growth

The province of Lanao del Sur demonstrate an annual growth rate of 3.40% over a period of 10 years from 1990 to 2000 but the annual growth rate decreases to 3.18% from 1995 to 2000, or a decrease of 0.22%. The decrease can be attributed to out migration due to poverty incidence in the province.

Specifically, the population growth from 1995 to 2000 of the 38 municipality of the province excluding Marawi City shoes that Lumbayanague and Pualas registered a negative annual growth rate of -1.68 and -0.94%, respectively. However, three (3) of the 38 municipalities posted more than 5% annual growth rate with Bubong 7.04% followed by Madamba 5.94 and Wao 5.76%.

The 2000 NSO census on population shows Wao to have registered a high population of 35,5 17 while Bumbaran registered the lowest population of 6,589 (Table26).

Population Density

Tlie province of Lanao del Sur comprises a total area of 12,061.82 sq.l<m per DBM source, and 4,239.98 sq.km. water area composed of lakes and swamps. It has a total population by 2000 NSO census of 669,072 excluding the city of Marawi. It registered a population density of 55.47 person per sq.km. The municipality of Masiu has the highest density of 430 while the municipality of Bumbaran has the lowest of only 12 person per sq.krn. (Table 26)

Population Distribution by Sex

NSO 2000 census on population shows that there are more female with 344,399 against the male population of 324,673 or a difference of 19,726 or 6.08% higher



(table 27). The 1995 NSO census revealed that male population of the province is about 50.06% while that of female populace is 49.94% or lower by 0.12%. The increase of female populace can be attributed to out-migration of male and mortality rate of male than female.

Household population

Based on the IUSO record from 1995-2000,94.9% of the household is headed by male and only 5.1% is female headed, which indicated that the household in the province is basically patriarchal.

The NSO record of 1990 and 2000 shows that there are 14 municipalities whose number of household decreases or negative in growth number. The Municipality of Tugaya registered the highest average household size of 9.7 and 8.4 respectively while the municipality with the lowest average size of household of 4.6 is Kapatagan and Butig in 1995. In 2000 the municipality of Wao has the lowest average size of household with 5.4 (table 28).

Labor Force and Employment

Obser~~ing the participation of the people in different economic activities suggest the impression that labor participation in the province is impressive. In the rural areas, and even in the City of Marawi, children below 18 years of age already engage in income generating activities to augment the income of their families. What makes the labor characteristic in the province from other provinces in the country is the spirit of voluntarism of the youth to support their own family. Not like in other places where children are force to work even against their own will. Based on this observation it can be assumed that labor participation in the province is quite high and the workforce includes children of minor age.

Health Services and Facilities

Both public and private hospitals are available in the province are all concentrated in the City of Marawi except the district hospitals that are located in the municipalities of Balindong, Binidayan, and Tamparan, Malabang and Wao. These hospitals has a total of 145 bed capacity and offer minor surgery and other services. Biggest among the hospitals in terms of bed capacity, services available and manpower is the Amai Pal<-pal< Medical Center, formerly Amai Pakpak General Hospital, a government owned and operated hospital, with an actual authorized bed capacity of 200 but only have 70 actual implementing capacities. The Integrated Public Hospital Office (IPHO) is delivering other health services including health outreach programs.

Clinics are also available in the province but like the hospitals these clinics are located in the City of Marawi offering maternity and children consultation services and from eye to dental services



Health Manpower

With respect to health manpower of the province, there is no available record on the number of health manpower in the private hospitals and clinics but personnel analysis record of the IPHO for the year 2001 shows that there is in need for more health worl<ers/manpower to deliver responsive and efficient health services to the constituent in the province. In 2004, there are 35 physicians, 25 nurses and 109 midwives that are servicing the entire population of Lanao del Sur.

Maternal Mortality

The NSO-Technical Working Group (NSO-TWG) estimated the maternal mortality rate, in the absence of an actual survey, at the rate of 1 100 in 200 1 and 1.48 in 2003 or an increase 0.48 per 1,000 births.

Infant Mortality

Like Maternal Mortality rate, the NSO-TWG made an estimate of the infant mortality in the absence of an actual survey. Accordingly, the estimate of NSO-TWG shows that in 2001 the infant mortality rate is posted at 5.8 and 8.43 for 2003 or an average increase of 2.63 per 1000 live birth.

The following are the common leading causes of infant mortality: AIR, Diarrhea Aspl~yxia, measles, tetanus, neonatorium, septicemian, congenital blood dyscroc, hepatiiis, infer prorate anus, skin allergy and hydrocephalus.

Family Planning and Birth Control

Family planning, particularly birth control regardless of method, is not appreciated in the province and is considered not Islamic, hence, against the culture of the Maranaos. Concern government agencies are implementing family planning but more on motherhood and childhood care. Other NGOs are also implementing family planning programs but like government agencies the programs is more on motherhood and childcare.

Education

Education in the province, the Maranao populace in particular, is quite impressive as compared to other tribes of the 13 ethno-linguistic groups of the Muslim. Like in the past, particularly during the American occupation, where the Maranao were apprehensive of sending their children to school, today the Maranaos considered education as the best method of emancipating their family from the bondage of ignorance that breed poverty and social isolation from the past changing world of intellectual advancement. Education is now considered as luxurious business in the province manifested by the emergence of various private pre-school, elementary, and



secondary programs. Though these private schools are concentrated in the City of Marawi but people from the nearby municipalities are sending their children to private schools in the City disregarding the risk involved in the day-to-day travel engage by their small children.

Also, as compared to other Muslim tribes in the country there are more Maranaos occupying juicy positions on the government, both national, regional, and local, showing that there are great number of educated Maranaos than the other Muslim tribes in the country.

The presence of Mindanao State University-Marawi Campus boosts the growing Muslim participation in the post secondary education. The University also offers a better chance for the Maranaos in pursuing collegiate courses since only a few can afford to enroll in the private schools.

Social Welfare and Development

The provincial government has been delivering social welfare and development services to its constituents. Related services includes the provision of assistance in the settlement of clan feuds or rido which is considered as one of the primary factors that denied the province from participating into a more productive economic activities. Rather than investing in the province people prefer to engage economic activities outside the province to avoid in getting involved to warning clans of family. Provisions of assistance to organized cooperatives is another forms of social welfare and services that the provincial government is delivering. There are numerous related infrastructure projects implemented by the provincial government classified as social services.

Economic Environment

Agriculture

The economy of the province is basically agriculture due to two major factors: Firstly; the geographical location of the province is practically isolated from the other provinces with its limited point of entries, elevation, and the mountains and rolling hills surrounding the province. Related to the isolation of the province are the limited economic activities such as trade and commerce since the province is basically rural. Secondly, farming is the most feasible and viable economic activities that can bring promising return in terms of gains and profit. The land is fertile and suitable for almost all types of crops. Aside from rice as major staple food of the people, rice is also cultivated for commercial purposes. Corn and root crops are also cultivated in the province. Vegetable is likewise cultivated but primarily for family consumption. In the City of Marawi vegetable are mostly supplied coming from the nearby City of Iligan.



Fishery

ln the past fishery is one of the major incomes of the people residing along the shore of Lalte Lanao. The volume of catch from the Lake was more than sufficient for the fish requirement of the populace indicated by the very negligible volume of sea fishes coming from Iligan City. But the suspected ecological imbalance as a result of the installation of the hydroelectric power plants of the NPC brought a disaster to the breeding grounds of fishes of native species. The introduction of the carnivorous specie is another factor accelerated the extinction of fishes in the lake. Lately, the intervention of the government to remove the carnivorous "ltatulong" in the lalte is gradually making promising results. The catch is gradually increasing but still far from meeting the fish requirement of the people. The province is dependent of the fish supplies coming from lligan City and the dried fish from Pagadian City.

Commerce, Trade and Industry

Using the criteria indicative for hierarchy of urban centers adopted in the formulation of the PPFP of the province shows that only four municipalities fall under the category of secondary urban center. But not like in other provinces where municipalities having a greater number of urban population also serve as commercial and trading centers. In the province out of the four municipalities categorized as secondary urban centers only two are commercial and trade centers, the municipalities of Wao and Malabang. The other two commercial and trade centers are the municipalities of Ganassi and Lumbatan identified as village or tertiary urban centers in the PPFP of the province.

With respect to industry, there are no available major industries in the province, except for the flour milling plant in the municipality of Malabang and Balabagan. Rice milling and corn sheller, which are contributory to agriculture, are also available in the province.

In terms of commerce and trade, though there is no available department stores and fast foods outlets yet all kind of commercial activities and trade can be found in the province particularly in the City of Marawi and the urban centers of Malabang and Wao. With respect to the actual numbers of bust almost all kind of commerce and trade are available in the province.

Tourism Industry

Tourism industry is a potential economy of the province not only because of the natural and man-made tourist spots but also because of the attitude and culture of the Maranaos. The Maranaos are famous of their hospitality, particularly those in the rural areas, which discourage the building of hotels or lodging houses. The Maranaos used to accommodate their visitors, and even strangers, at their own home or house.



Among the sights in the province that are not available in any parts of the country are the Mosques around the Lake Lanao and the crystal-blue Lake Lanao ideal for boat riding and swimming.

Aside from the hospitality of the Maranaos that usually offer their home for their visitors there are available facilities where tourist can lodge in. the Marawi Resort Hotel has cottages, singe or duplex, provided with hot and cold shower, a clubhouse, and a swimming pool. The MSU-Marawi Campus is also accommodating visitors at its hostel. There is also one hotel in the coastal Municipality of Malabang. Tourist who wish to enjoy night happenings can go down to lligan City, a less than 30 minutes ride from Marawi, since there is no available night recreation and leisure in the City of Marawi.

Future Environmental Condition of the Project Area

With the improvement of the existing Parang-Malabang-Marawi City Road, transport demand in the future will play a strategic role in providing an inter-regional connection between Region X or Northern Mindanao and the Autonomous Region of Muslim Miiidanao (ARMM).

With the improvement of the project road will undoubtedly encourage investments and generate employment particularly in the far-flung municipalities.

The project road would also complement with the on-going and committed major road infrastructure development in the area or the construction of Zamboanga-Pagadian- Malabang Road which is being implemented with financial assistance under the ADB 6th Road Loan Package, IBRD-NRIMP I and the 2" Kuwait Fund.

When completed, this would also function as an inter-regional link between Region IX or Western Mindanao Region and ARMM.

With the project this will opened opportunities for economic and social advancement to the residents by bringing adequate social services to the countryside like higher education, better health and higher income.

In conclusion, the full implementation of the project would give a new momentum to the economic growth and development of the project especially to the north-south backbone of the country's arterial road network.



Without the Project

Without the project, the Cotabato-Marawi City (Parang-Malabang-Marawi City Section) will still experience difficulty in transportation. Travel time will remain the same.

Conveyance and distribution of the prime commodities to and from another part of Mindanao province will remain slow. No investor will be attracted to the area considering the poorlbad condition of the road.

Accessibility and deliveries of public services and prime commodities will remain difficult .

Market limitation due to slow phase may hamper inflow of trade and capital from neighboring municipalities.

Without the project, the existing condition of the road will remain as it is and may even deteriorate further.

B. Brief discussion of MitigationIEnhancement Measures

Prior to commencement of construction activities, billboard signs will be installed in strategic areas to keep the people informed of the forthcoming activities in the primary impact zone. Affected barangays will also be informed through their Barangay Captain so as to minimize stress on the people who will be affected by the project. Most of the negative impacts are short term. These impacts will likely prevail during the construction stage. The generation and re-suspension of fugitive dust will be prevented through wetting and spraying it with water using mechanical equipment such as spray jets. The noise generated will be abated by permanent noise walls scheduling of noisy earthworlts. After construction, road maintenance program will be implemented according to DPWH standards and guidelines. This is to ensure and sustain the useful life of this infrastructure. This includes periodic monitoring and inspection of the road condition with proper rehabilitation repair to cracks and other damages.

The negative impacts due to the loss of vegetation although considered not significant will be mitigated by planting trees along the roadside. Trees can help absorb some of the pollutants and will also serves as buffering mechanism for noise coming from vehicles.
