I . I NTRODUCTI ON


A. Background

The Philippine Environmental Impact Statement System was formally established by virtue
of Presidential Decree 1586. It requires the submission of Environmental Impact Statements
(EIS) for environmentally critical projects and Initial Environmental Examination (IEE) for
projects which are located in environmentally critically areas as provided in its Implementing
Rules and Regulations (IRR) and Presidential Proclamation No. 2146, series of 1981.

In 11 February 2004, the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) and
the Philippine Economic Zone Authority (PEZA) signed the Implementing Rules and
Regulations (IRR) prescribing the procedures and guidelines for the operationalization of the
Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) executed by and between the DENR and PEZA which
was signed by both parties on 25 August 1999. Section 3, Rule 6 of the said IRR, provides
that a supplemental guidelines such as IEE Checklist for non-environmentally critical projects
(non-ECPs) to be located within an ecozone. As such, this checklist, which is defined as a
simplified form of the IEE Report, was developed by PEZA and EMB to further assist the
economic zone locator enterprises in ensuring that environmental considerations are
incorporated in project development.
B. Objectives of this Guide

Pollution Control Officers (PCOs) and Environment Officers (Eos) are encouraged to prepare
the IEE Checklist. This guide is intended to aid the PCOs and Eos to prepare their own
applications for securing the Environmental Compliance Certificate (ECC).

I I. SCOPE OF THE CHECKLI ST

This checklist is applicable to ECC applications of PEZA-economic zone enterprises proposing
to undertake non-environmentally critical projects (non-ECPs). The following projects with
the corresponding PSIC code is covered by this Checklist:

The submission of an IEE Checklist, however, does not preclude the DENR-EMB Regional Director
from further requiring the proponent to submit an IEE/EIS if necessary. The RD may eventually
require the proponent to submit an IEE/EIS if the proposed project has high potential to cause
significant negative environmental impact/s or is of such scale and magnitude that I EE/EI S
becomes more appropriate document to submit.

I II . INSTRUCTIONS ON THE PREPARATI ON AND SUBMI SSION OF THE IEE
CHECKLI ST

This section guides the project proponent on how to answer the checklist. It also directs the
proponent to submit the IEE Checklist initially at PEZA for procedural review and then to the
DENR-EMB for substantive review.

A. Contents of the IEE Checklist

The IEE Checklist consists of a series of questions related to the operation of the project and
its corresponding impact to the environment. It serves as a planning tool for the proponent
to determine water quality, air quality, solid and hazardous waste management issues that
needs to be addressed during all stages of project implementation.

The information contained herein will serve as basis for the DENR-EMBs issuance or denial
of the Environmental Compliance Certificate (ECC).

The IEE Checklist is divided into eight (8) major sections:

1. General Information presents the project title, name and address of project
proponent, proponent's contact person and the location of the project;

2. Project Description presents the plan/design components and activities during
all phases of the project, from construction to abandonment;

3. I mpact Assessment and Mitigation describes the possible impacts that may
occur during project development and the corresponding mitigating and
enhancement measures to prevent and/or minimize the adverse effects of the
project;

4. Environmental Management Program summarizes the mitigation,
compensation, contingency and monitoring measures to enhance positive impacts
and minimize negative impacts of the proposed project;

5. Environmental Monitoring Plan summarizes the monitoring program detailing
the parameters, location of sampling stations, frequency, etc.

6. Proponents Commitment specifies the duties and responsibilities of the
economic zone locator enterprise related to the management of the environment

7. Attachments refers to the checklist of documents that the proponent should
attach to the IEE Checklist

8. Accountability Statement of the Proponent and Preparer*
*if the PCO or representative of the company prepared the IEE report, the accountability
statement of the Preparer is no longer necessary

IEE CHECKLIST_peza.doc

B. I nstructions on the Preparation of the I EE Checklist

1. The IEE Checklist can be prepared by the proponent or any of his/her authorized
representative(s).

2. The proponent places a check mark () in the appropriate box. If the answer does
not fall in any of the pre-determined responses, check () OTHERS and indicate your
specific answer in the blank space provided or use additional sheets. If some
questions are not applicable to your project, write N/A on the blank space or column.

3. Refer to Section 3.0 of the checklist, the Impact Assessment and Mitigation specified
in the section shall serve as guide for the economic zone locator enterprise.

The proponent may check applicable measures, however, additional impacts and
mitigation/enhancement measures should also be added if it is not in the list.

4. Refer to Section 4.0 of the checklist, the proponent enumerates all works to be
undertaken for each phase of the project. For each stated activity in column 1, the
proponent identifies the potential environmental impact (column 2), the mitigating &
enhancement measures (column 3), the estimated cost of proposed mitigating
measures (column 4) and the person or unit who will implement the plan.

5. Refer to Section 5.0 of the checklist, the proponent should identify the programs
related to the management of the following aspects:
Water quality
Air quality
Toxic substances and hazardous waste
Solid waste

For column 2, identify the location where the sampling for the parameters indicated
in column 3 shall be conducted. The frequency of sampling and subsequent analysis
shall be indicated in column 3. Indicate in column 4 if the PCO or other personnel
shall be in charge of the monitoring.

C. I nstructions on the Submission and Processing of the IEE Checklist
