EIA DRR/CCA TECHNICAL GUIDELINES

A. INTRODUCTION
It is the policy of the State that optimum economic development shall be achieved without delay but shall
be pursued ensuring that the present generation meets its needs without compromising the needs of the
future generations. This is consistent with the principles of sustainable development. The Philippine
Environmental Impact Statement System (PEISS) established under Presidential Decree 1586 in 1978
provides a systems-oriented integrated approach in the analysis and management of environmental
concerns vis--vis the national development program. It requires a proponent to conduct an
Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) and secure an Environmental Compliance Certificate (ECC)
prior to implementation of development projects classified as environmentally critical or those that are
proposed to be located in environmentally critical areas (ECAs).
As a planning and decision-making tool, the essential purpose of the EIA process is to improve decision
making and to ensure that project options under consideration are environmentally sound and
sustainable (World Bank, 1999). However, conventional EIA does not include natural hazards and
climate change projections as considerations either as factors in assessing the impact of the project on
the environment, or with respect to the impact of the environment on the project. Considering the
disastrous effects of natural hazards and the potential aggravating effects of climate change, it is
essential that the EIA cover natural hazards and related risks as well as the anticipated rise in the
frequency and intensity of climatological hazards associated with climate change.

1. Context/Rationale
The Philippines is one of the countries in the world that is prone to natural hazards. Deaths from natural
disasters in the 1990 decade and in 2000-2006 have increased compared with the 1980 decade levels. A
significant number of deaths are caused by typhoons. The National Disaster Coordinating Council
(NDCC) has estimated that during the period 1970-2002, an average of 500 deaths was recorded each
year due to typhoons and tropical cyclones. The high number of deaths in the 90s was mainly due to the
1990 earthquake that struck Luzon and the 1991 Mt. Pinatubo eruption wherein lives lost numbered about
2,000 and 6,200, respectively. The NDCC recorded a total number of 36,019 deaths caused by natural
disasters from 1980 to 2006. 1
In economic terms, the average cost of direct damage from natural disasters from 1970 to 2006 is
estimated at PhP15 billion at 2000 prices. Direct damage covers damage to agricultural crops, public
infrastructure and private homes. Damage was highest at about PhP70 billion in 1978 when 15 disasters
struck the country. Other major disasters with high direct damage were the Luzon earthquake in 1990
(about PhP66 billion), the Mt. Pinatubo eruption in 1991 (about PhP33 billion) and the droughts in 1984
and 1987. As a result, the declines in gross domestic product (GDP) were estimated at: a) 1.2 percent
due to the 1990 Luzon earthquake; b) 0.9 percent due to the Pinatubo eruption; and, c) 0.5 percent
average due to typhoons every year. 2
Compounding this vulnerability to natural hazards are the perceived effects of climate change. According
to the Fourth Assessment Report (Working Group 1) of the Inter-governmental Panel on Climate Change
(IPCC), the warming of the climate system is deemed unequivocal, as it is now evident from observations
of increases in global average air and ocean temperatures, widespread melting of snow and ice, and
rising global average sea level. 3
th

As global climate change escalates, the risk of floods, droughts and severe storms increases. In its 4
Assessment Report, the IPCC projects that rising global temperature will cause increasing

drought in mid-latitudes and semi-arid latitudes, increased water stress in many parts of the world,
increased damage from storms, and coastal flooding affecting millions more people each year.
The IPCC also concludes in the report of Working Group II that there are documented associations
between changes in temperature and observations of changes in physical and biological systems in the
aquatic, terrestrial and marine environments. These are environmental receptors that are typically
covered in EIAs. As such, it is imperative for the EIA to not only focus on possible environmental
degradation but to also ensure that the disaster- and climate-related consequences of potential projects
are carefully spelled out as part of the assessment process and taken into account in project design. For
instance, clearing mangroves to make way for prawn farming or tourism development may generate
substantial livelihood opportunities, but it also increases exposure to storm surges and tsunamis.
To ensure that natural hazard- and climate-related factors are incorporated in the EIA, the following need
to be observed:
Natural hazards, climate change and related risks should be considered as a fundamental first
step in broader project scoping and the findings should be used to determine if disaster and/or
climate change risks should be examined in further detail in other components of the project
appraisal process.
Systematic analysis of the potential disaster/climate risk-related consequences of a project via its
impact on the environment should be included as a central component of the assessment
process, especially in hazard-prone areas.
Measures to address identified environmental issues, including disaster risk reduction/climate
change adaptation (DRR/CCA) concerns should be formulated for incorporation in the final
design and implementation of the project.

1. Objectives of the Guidelines


The EIA DRR/CCA Technical Guidelines is intended to promote climate change adaptation and disaster
risk reduction at the project level, as well as to streamline EIA requirements under the PEISS as provided
for in DENR Memorandum Circular (MC) 2010-14. Specifically, the Guidelines aim to:
Provide enhanced standards for the preparation of EIA Reports that are customized for
specific industry types as required under the PEISS; and
Provide guidance for project proponents in integrating DRR and CCA concerns in the project
planning stage through the EIA Process to facilitate review and implementation of projects by
incorporating international best practices.
These Guidelines were formulated to provide EIA practitioners and stakeholders with:
an understanding of the implications of disaster and climate change risks in relation to the
preparation of an EIA Report;
direction on a project-specific basis on how disaster risks and climate change need to be
considered in an EIA;
sources of information for use in assessing disaster risks and climate change implications, and
guidance in incorporating DRR and CCA considerations into the EIA process.

EIA DRR/CCA TECHNICAL GUIDELINES

Note for Users:


The EIA Technical Guidelines on DRR/CCA is intended t o guide proponents and
preparers in mainstreaming DRR/CCA at the project level. The DRR/CCA activities
in the PEISS are not intended to replace the responsibilities of government agencies
in the conduct of natural hazard assessment, disaster risk assessment (DRA),
sectoral impact assessment, vulnerability assessment and other similar studies at the
national and sub-national levels.

2. Scope of the Guidelines


These Guidelines, including the annexes, shall be collectively known as the Environmental Impact
Assessment (EIA) Technical Guidelines for Incorporating Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) and
Climate Change Adaptation (CCA) concerns in the Philippine EIS System (EIA DRR/CCA Technical
Guidelines).
This shall serve as the guidance document for the conduct of EIA and preparation of EIA Reports (i.e.,
EIS) required for ECC applications under the PEISS. The EIA is enhanced as a risk-based planning tool
to integrate DRR and CCA concerns in the project design and implementation. The Guidelines cover the
EIA requirement for both Environmentally Critical Projects (ECPs) and Non-ECPs located in
Environmentally Critical Areas (ECAs) as defined under Presidential Proclamation 2146 and the existing
implementing rules and regulations. Following are the components of the Guidelines:
General guidance document which provides the conceptual framework for Mainstreaming
DRR/CCA in EIA
Procedures on the use of the DRR/CCA-enhanced EIS Screening Forms
Procedures on the use of the DRR/CCA-enhanced Initial Environmental Examination (IEE)
Checklist Report Forms

B. GENERAL GUIDANCE FOR MAINSTREAMING DRR/CCA IN EIA


1. Overview of the Philippine EIS System (PEISS)
The EIA is a comprehensive and systematic process under the PEISS designed to identify, analyze and
evaluate the environmental effects of proposed projects. As a process, it is intended to:
involve the public in an open, transparent and participatory manner
allow for the effective integration of environmental considerations and public concerns into the
decision-making process
provide a powerful tool to help decision-makers achieve the goal of sustainable development
Projects covered by the PEISS are defined in the Revised Procedural Manual for DENR Administrative
Order (DAO) 2003-30. Heavy industries, resource extractive industries, infrastructure projects and golf
course projects are considered as ECPs that are covered under the PEISS. Also covered are projects
located in ECAs such as: areas declared by law as national parks, watershed reserves, wildlife preserves,
sanctuaries; areas set aside as aesthetic potential tourist spots; areas which are traditionally occupied by
cultural communities or tribes; areas frequently visited and/or hard-hit by natural calamities (geologic
hazards, floods, typhoons, volcanic activity, etc.); and, areas with critical slopes, among others. Details on
coverage and thresholds are contained in the RPM.

EIA DRR/CCA TECHNICAL GUIDELINES

The EIA process in the Philippines consists of seven (7) steps presented in brief below. Each step is
equally important in determining the overall environmental performance of the project:
1. Screening. This first step in the EIA process serves to determine whether a proposed project is
covered under the PEISS and, if covered, the level of assessment required.
2) Scoping. This step identifies the key issues and corresponding impact that should be the focus
of the EIA. This stage also defines the spatial boundary and time limit of the study.
3) Impact analysis. This step includes gathering of baseline information as well as identification
and prediction of the likely environmental and social impact of the proposed project and the
evaluation of its significance.
4) Mitigation. This step involves the formulation of recommended actions to reduce and avoid
the potential adverse environmental consequences of development activities.
5) Reporting. At this stage, the results of the EIA in the form of a report (i.e., EIA report) is
prepared for submission to the EMB.
6) Review of EIA/Project Appraisal. Here, the EMB examines the adequacy and appropriateness
of the EIA report. The EMB also ensures that information necessary for decision-making is
contained in the EIA report.
7)

2.

Project Implementation and Monitoring. At this stage, the project is commissioned. The
Project Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) system is designed to ensure that the actual impact of
the project does not exceed the legal standards, and implementation of the mitigation
measures are consistent with those in the EIA report.

Mainstreaming DRR/CCA in the EIA Process

The DRR/CCA-enhanced EIA is a tool for ensuring that future developments (e.g., projects) are resilient
and that their environmental impact does not exacerbate natural hazards or climate changes effects on
human or natural systems. It should also be noted that the integration of DRR and CCA considerations
into the EIA process requires no change to the essential steps or sequence of the EIA process itself.
Basic Project Considerations
In the initial project definition and description, there is a need to determine if natural hazards and climate
change are likely to be potential considerations in the EIA process. Factors influencing this decision
include:
the nature of the project and its setting
the life of the project
natural hazard and climate-related parameters likely to influence the critical environmental
receptors and the project
anticipated changes in these parameters over the life of the project, and
applicable regulatory requirements, guidelines and expectations.
At this stage, the principles of precautionary approach should be applied in incorporating DRR/CCA into
the EIA process. The precautionary approach recognizes that the absence of full scientific certainty
should not be used as a reason to postpone decisions where there is a risk of serious or irreversible

EIA DRR/CCA TECHNICAL GUIDELINES

harm, and that precautionary measures should be taken even if some cause and effect relationships are
not fully established scientifically.
Project Screening
Screening of projects for coverage and EIA Requirement under the PEISS involves the consideration of
the project type (i.e., ECP) and thresholds, as well as its location in Environmentally Critical Areas
(ECAs).
Conceptually, projects would undergo additional screening by determining if their environmental impact
are highly likely to contribute to increased vulnerability to natural hazards and climate change. This
impact would be site-specific, typically reversible and, in most cases, risk reduction/mitigation measures
could easily be incorporated in the EMP/EMoP.
Under the EIA DRR/CCA Technical Guidelines, the screening process will be strengthened with the use
of hazard maps generated by mandated agencies (e.g., PHIVOLCS, MGB) and funded projects (e.g.,
READY Project). The screening process is further refined with the use of the climate change projections
generated by PAGASA.
Project Scoping
This stage of the process is critical as it defines the scope of the EIA to be required. EIA reports should, in
general, present detailed information concerning the nature, scope, setting (legal, financial, institutional)
and timing for the proposed project or activity. The level of information that may be required shall be
within what is relevant and available at the Feasibility Study Stage specific detailed engineering design
shall not be required. The project description to be submitted for purposes of scoping should contain
sufficient information to frame the scope of the EIA investigation so that time and resources are focused
on relevant issues.
It is important to note that scoping simply indicates whether or not there are concerns that need to be
addressed. It does not determine the extent of an effect, or whether an effect will actually occur. Public
concern raised at a meeting is sufficient at this stage to flag an issue as important enough to be included
in the scoping task. It is at this stage that scoping must also determine whether natural hazards and/or
climate change is/are relevant and should be included in the EIA whether in relation to potential
changes to the environment, or in consideration of the effects of the environment on the project.
Scoping must consider both natural hazards and climate change in relation to:
Project design criteria current project design criteria and code-related issues (i.e., regulatory
requirements such as safety, structural) must be reviewed and justified with respect to predicted
climatic changes and to the physical environment over the life span of
the project. If
necessary, the project design criteria must be amended appropriately and/or modified design
factors must be applied to the project.
Ecological, socio-economic and physical factors possible changes and/or additions to
critical environmental receptors to be studied (e.g., health and safety, or pathways) due to
natural hazards and/or climate changes over the life- span of the project must be determined
and incorporated into the EIA process. This also includes possible physical environmental
factors that might affect the project.
Environmental impact possible environmental impact (including cumulative effects, if
appropriate) must be identified based on effects associated with natural hazards and/or climate
changes being considered for the life-span of the project.
Note that the integration of natural hazards and climate change into the EIA process should not
necessarily require modification of existing regulatory requirements, best practices or performance
standards, which would be outside of the scope of an EIA. In addition, it is important not to shift liability or
5

EIA DRR/CCA TECHNICAL GUIDELINES

introduce unreasonable costs into the EIA process. However, it is important to consider, for example, the
effects of natural hazards and the implications of the frequency and intensity of climatic extremes, and
their effects on both the project and its potentially modified impact on the environment.
Under the EIA DRR/CCA Technical Guidelines, scoping would ensure that description of the
project/activity includes the identification of environmental or social issues of concern as well as any
natural hazards and climate change vulnerabilities at the project level. One potential mode of integration
is the assessment of issues, especially with regards to the historical and projected occurrence of tropical
cyclones and other extreme climate events in the proposed project location that may affect project design,
construction, implementation or abandonment.
Examples of integration schemes for disaster and climate change risk are as follows (especially for
projects located in hazard-prone areas):
Energy impact of hydropower projects on natural water flow and flooding patterns.
Transport impact of road construction and associated infrastructure on drainage systems and
flooding patterns.
Urban development impact of development on the capacity of services and utilities to
prevent increased risk of flooding as could occur if, say, drainage systems are inadequate or
garbage collection services are limited, resulting in dumping of garbage in drainage systems or
waterways.
Mining implications for droughts and floods from impact of mining operations on level of
groundwater.
Agriculture impact on soil erosion and consequences in terms of levels of water retention,
downstream siltation and flooding; resilience of proposed projects in the event of rainfall
excesses or deficits.
Fisheries consequences of clearance of mangroves and other vegetation.
Forestry risk reduction benefits of forestry projects (e.g., in providing protection against
windstorms, landslides or tsunamis, and reducing the risk of flash flooding).

For projects that require an EIS, DRR/CCA-enhanced EIS Screening


Forms are provided in Annex 1.

Impact Analysis
In general, the EIA process requires a detailed identification of significant impact. Determining whether an
impact is significant is a critical step in an EIA, and it is necessary to identify the criteria on which this
decision is based.
Traditional EIA typically views the environment in its current state, usually based on a seasonal analysis
of conditions (e.g., wet and dry seasons). The existing status of each environmental receptor is
characterized, and project activities are then analyzed vis--vis the existing environment to determine the
impact.
Incorporating natural hazards and climate change impact requires a paradigm shift from this perspective,
as the existing environment can no longer be viewed as a constant and separate from project effects. In
fact, a specific analysis of the potential changes associated with natural hazards and/or climate change
will be required before the impact of project activities can be isolated and assessed. The essence of the
EIA process does not change. Effects on the environment with and without the project are still

EIA DRR/CCA TECHNICAL GUIDELINES

determined, and the existing definitions of significance should be used to evaluate the impact of the
project after climate change considerations have been integrated.
The EIA, being ideally conducted at the project planning stage, has a lot of uncertainties, thus the need to
consider options and alternatives. The analysis of environmental impact shall consider range of
assumptions on production capacity, areas of development, process technologies, emissions, discharges
and other wastes. Under the DRR/CCA-enhanced guidelines, the PAGASA climate projections for 2020
and 2050 in the province where the project is to be located should be integrated into the project impact
analysis. Examination of the consequences of climate variability and changes, as well as the
effectiveness, costs and feasibility of adaptations that can reduce vulnerability at the project level shall
also be included in the impact analysis.
Ideally, the EIA shall consider the potential effects of the project (during construction, operation and, if
relevant, decommissioning) on the frequency, intensity and consequences of significant natural hazards
and the impact of these hazards, in turn, on the project. The assessment should take into account
relevant natural hazards and climate change concerns (e.g., how a rise in sea level might affect storm
surges, or how changes in precipitation might affect drought and flooding). In some cases, findings of
mathematical and computer-based hazard modeling exercises in the project area (for instance,
modeling of earthquake, flood or windstorm) should be used. Such exercises, if not available, should be
undertaken for large projects in high-risk areas.
On the other hand, the EIA process provides an excellent means to ensure that environmental effects on
the project are considered and factored into project decision-making. Possible adverse effects of the
environment (in terms of natural hazards and/or climate change) on the project may include:
destruction of the project or components of the project
negative impact to the operation and productivity of the project
increase in cost of project development
revisions of project design
increase in maintenance frequency and costs, and
requirement for future project modifications
Potential effects of the environment on the design criteria shall be the primary concern of the project.
Decisions on the project design criteria must be made in the context of the climate change projections
over the lifespan of the project. Detailed analysis may not necessarily be done during this assessment,
but the source of climate predictions and their specific magnitude must be described along with the
rationale for accepting the design criteria. Overall, any adverse impact of extreme climate events on the
project should be identified and the likelihood of their occurrence, specified.
These assessments will help to determine if these effects are significant. If potential effects are deemed
significant, appropriate management, mitigation and adaptation options must be identified. Furthermore,
if it has been determined that a project is highly affected by climate change, a project-level climate
change adaptation program should also be developed to address significant impact and define project
adaptation measures.

EIA DRR/CCA TECHNICAL GUIDELINES

For projects that require an EIS, t h e DRR/CCA-enhanced EIS Screening


Forms provide a list of projected impact and corresponding baseline data
requirement as well as prescribed assessment methodology and approach in
consideration of the disaster and climate change vulnerability parameters
relevant for specific types of projects. These pre-identified requirements shall
be included as part of impact analysis of the EIA.
For projects where the IEE Checklist Report Form would suffice, pre-identified
baseline data and impact analysis requirements as well as DRR/CCA options
are provided for particular project types to be filled-up/accomplished.
Detailed guidance on the use of the forms is provided in other sections of the EIA
DRR/CCA Technical Guidelines.

Impact Mitigation Planning


The impact mitigation section of the EIA report should consider the reduction or elimination of residual
impact remaining after standard measures (such as installation of pollution control devices and erosion
control techniques) have been applied. Note that standard mitigation through best management practices
is typically an integral part of the project design.
Measures associated with disaster risk reduction and climate change will normally fall within this category
and may include a range appropriate to the project and its setting. Mitigation, including any DRR/CCA
measures, should remain focused on reduction or elimination of significant impact of the project on the
environment, as well as the effects of the disaster and climate change risk projections on the project.
Note for Users:
The mainstreaming o f DRR/CCA in the PEISS is focused at the project level. As
such, the assessment process should be limited to the impact of a project on
natural hazards as well as effects of natural and climate hazards on the project.
Likewise, risk reduction and adaptation measures should be appropriate for project level
implementation.

Preparation of the Environmental Impact Statement (EIS)


As a process, the EIA is primarily used to identify potentially significant impact and formulate measures to
reduce the impact to acceptable levels. The results of the process are documented in an environmental
impact statement (EIS). The EIS is prepared to convey the results of the various analyses conducted
during the EIA, as well as to incorporate the management, mitigation and adaptation measures necessary
to address natural hazard/climate change vulnerabilities and risks identified. The EIS should also be
used to ensure that the program for monitoring project implementation and impact includes the
assessment of effectiveness of these measures.
The nature, quality and quantity of data, impact assessment and management measures presented in the
EIS shall include those that will be most useful and critical in the integration of environmental, social,
climate and disaster risk reduction concerns during the preparation and finalization of the proponents
feasibility study and subsequent activities of the project, such as detailed engineering design,
construction, operation and decommissioning/ abandonment.

EIA DRR/CCA TECHNICAL GUIDELINES

For projects that require an EIS, t h e DRR/CCA-enhanced EIS Screening


Forms will serve as the checklist f o r information and analysis requirements
identified during the scoping stage.
For projects where the IEE Checklist Report Form would suffice, the duly
accomplished/completed form w i l l serve as the EIA Report for the proposed
project.
Detailed guidance on the use of the forms is provided in other sections of this
EIA DRR/CCA Technical Guidelines.
Review Process
The PEISS review process is premised on the following criteria:
Clarity. The EIS document is intended to communicate the results of the EIA to a wide range of
stakeholders, including regulators, evaluators from various disciplines and professions, decision
makers, affected communities, and the general public. It should therefore be written in a way
that is easily understood.
Balance. There are many ways by which balance can be gauged. An EIS document is
considered balanced if it is devoid of bias in the presentation and analysis of data. It is not
supposed to provide justifications for pre-conceived conclusions in favor of any interest group.
Moreover, the EIS document should demonstrate a balanced treatment of descriptive and
analytical discussion. Facts or data and their meaning or interpretation should be presented in
tandem; one without the other will not withstand scientific scrutiny.
Accuracy and Precision. These are universal criteria that need to be satisfied through
scientific inquiry or investigation. All analytical data presented in the EIS should satisfy the
prescribed levels of accuracy and precision as derived from established statistical tools and
methods. Furthermore, all the baseline characterization methods (e.g., sampling, survey,
testing procedures), as well as impact prediction tools and techniques (e.g., modeling
techniques, field tests, laboratory experiments) used in the EIA study will be scrutinized not only
for statistical, but also for scientific soundness.
Under the EIA DRR/CCA Technical Guidelines, the integration of DRR/CCA into the review process will
also ensure that:
All potentially significant environmental impact have been identified and analyzed, and both the
climate change projections and the hazard potential in the proposed project location were
considered. Furthermore, the review process shall ensure that appropriate impact mitigation
measures, as well as climate change adaptation and disaster risk reduction have been
formulated and analyzed based on agreements during the screening and scoping stages.
The project proponent has committed to implement and incorporate into the project design: a)
the appropriate and sufficient impact management and mitigation measures, and b) the
appropriate climate change adaptation and disaster risk reduction considerations.

Project Monitoring and Evaluation


In the context of the PEISS, monitoring and evaluation (M&E) is undertaken after the issuance of the
Environmental Compliance Certificate (ECC) to determine whether predictions made in the EIA report
were accurate. Furthermore, if disaster and climate change risks have been identified as potential
concerns, the M&E should take this into consideration. Monitoring should focus on areas where
potentially significant impact could occur, or where mitigating measures have been proposed. The

EIA DRR/CCA TECHNICAL GUIDELINES

knowledge base for disaster risks and climate change in project-specific areas will normally improve
substantially over the life of a project. It should also be noted that disaster and/or climate change risks
are normally long-term risks, and hence may be difficult to assess in the short-term (i.e., project life).
Therefore, if a project is particularly sensitive to disaster risks and/or climate change over its predicted
life, monitoring should include periodic assessment of these aspects by reviewing new information and/or
monitoring specific hazard/climate elements. At the minimum, the evaluation should focus on
determining whether the mitigating and/or adaptation measures that were put in place were effective and
whether there were problems or excessive costs associated with them.
The compliance monitoring by the project proponent, validation by the Multi-Partite Monitoring Team
(MMT) (if required) and the evaluation by the EMB should focus on confirming whether mitigating
measures are performing as designed, or to identify changes needed to address the actual environmental
impact of the project. This will show whether the project had achieved its objectives or had caused
unintended adverse impact. In which case, it may be necessary to re-assess adaptation options, select
new mitigation and/or adaptation measures or modify the current set of measures.

C. PROCEDURES IN USING THE DRR/CCA-ENHANCED SCREENING FORMS


1. Purpose of the EIS Screening Forms
For projects requiring an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS), DRR/CCA-enhanced EIS Screening
Forms have been developed as a guide for the scoping process. These screening forms are basically
checklists of the required scope of the EIA. The forms also provide guidance on how to incorporate
disaster and climate change risks, including the formulation of appropriate mitigation and adaptation
options at the project level.
The EIS Screening Forms have been customized for specific industry types to allow for a more precise
identification of the following:
assessment needs in terms of specific impact of each industry type
the critical climate and disaster risk parameters that need to be incorporated in the EIA
disaster risk reduction measures and/or climate change adaptation options that should be
considered/studied and incorporated in the project design
The purpose of this document is to guide users (e.g., project proponent, EIA Consultant, EMB and other
stakeholders) in implementing a risk-based planning and management system for the proposed project, in
consideration of environmental management concerns as well as the climate change and disaster risks
concerns. This shall also serve as a guide for the formulation of an enhanced environmental management
plan which has integrated climate change adaptation and disaster risk reduction plan as an input to the
overall project design.

2. Use of the EIS Screening Forms


The EIS Screening Form was designed based on the prescribed outline contained in DENR
Memorandum Circular 2010-14 dated 29 June 2010. The form also includes the pre-identification of the
potential environmental impact specific to the industry type. The baseline data and the assessment
methodology requirement are likewise based on these considerations. The same form could be used for
completeness checking of EIAs being submitted as a requirement for ECC application. Columns have
been provided for such purpose.

10

EIA DRR/CCA TECHNICAL GUIDELINES

Available data on identified hazard areas and climate projections for specific provinces shall be included
in the assessment of project impact. Specifically, climate projections for rainfall, temperature, tropical
cyclones and extreme climate events for years 2020 and 2050 shall be used. Furthermore, a climate
change adaptation program shall be developed as part of the Environmental Management Plan (EMP).
Likewise, available data on areas prone to hazards or have historical incidence of disasters shall be used
to develop the Disaster Risk Management Plan at the project level. This Plan shall likewise be
incorporated in the EMP and considered in the project design.

3. The EIS Screening Forms


The EIS Screening Form is composed of four (4) major parts:
General Information
This is where the basic information on the project to be screened are inputted. It also contains a
checklist of documentary requirements for the ECC application.
Checklist of EIS Contents
This provides technical guidance on the specific content requirement for each of the major sections
of the EIS for the specific project sector.
Checklist of Key Environmental Impact
This contains a listing of pre-identified key environmental impacts for the specific project sector and
the corresponding environmental baseline data that needs to be established before the
implementation of the project. It also specifies required environmental assessment
methodology/approach for each identified key environmental impact. A corresponding management
and monitoring plan shall be formulated for each of the identified key environmental impact. The
checklist provides columns for checking the presence of these in the EIS that will be subjected to
screening.
Environmental Risk Assessment Requirement Checklist
This is a guide for identifying the type of risks that is critical for the specific project type (safety or
physical), the scope of assessment and the output/report type required for the type of risk. An
emergency response and monitoring plan should be formulated for the identified risks. The
checklist provides columns for checking the presence of these in the EIS that are subjected to
screening.
The EIS Screening Form also has provisions for affixing signatures of Reviewers, Preparers, Proponent
and EMB Representative who participated in the scoping activity.
Each of the EIS Screening Form was customized for specific project sectors but the following provides a
general guidance on what each of the sections of the EIS should contain.
The Executive Summary
The Screening Form starts with the Executive Summary. This section should be written clearly and
concisely as a stand-alone document summarizing the main findings of the study and how they were
arrived at. The summary should cover all main issues discussed in the Report and contain at least a brief
description of the project and the environment.
The summary should include a brief description of anticipated significant climate change impact affecting
the development, an account of the main mitigation and adaptation measures to be undertaken by the
proponent, and a description of any significant residual impact.
11

EIA DRR/CCA TECHNICAL GUIDELINES

A brief discussion of the method by which data were obtained should also be included.
Section I. Project Description
1. The proponent/EIA consultant should indicate the precise location and boundaries of the proposed
project shown on a detailed (preferably topographic) map, a statement of the objectives of the
proposed project, its component and size, manpower and indicative project investment cost, including
all portions and phases of the project with corresponding timeframes needed for evaluation and
review of the environmental impact.
2. Under Project Rationale, the proponent should be able to state clearly the purpose or justification (in
reference to specific sustainable development agenda, e.g., regional development plan, provincial
development plan, local development plan) of the proposed project to allow for an evaluation of the
environmental effects vis--vis the proposed development.
3. Under Project Alternatives, a brief discussion on feasible alternatives including the reasons for the
selection of the preferred option should be provided. The discussion should include a comparison of
significant adverse environmental impact of the various options and the consideration of prevailing
and projected environmental issues. The no project option should also form part of this discussion.
A no project alternative is not equivalent to a status quo condition, as it must account for growth and
development in the foreseeable future if the proposed project were not approved based on current
plans and available infrastructure and community service.
4. The Project Component section should present a clear description of the project (text and maps, when
possible) of the projects basic lay-out, activities and support facilities likely to cause environmental
effects. This information will serve as a benchmark against which to measure environmental changes
and assess impact.
5. The Method/Technology option should identify the types and quantities of wastes which might be
produced, and the proposed disposal scheme/s.
An improvement under this section should include a description of the vulnerability to natural hazards
associated with climate change. Wastes include all residual process materials, effluents and
emissions. The types and quantities of waste matter or residual materials as well as the rate at which
these will be generated should be estimated. Further, the ways by which the project proposes to
treat these wastes and residuals should be indicated, along with the pathways by which they will
eventually be disposed of to the environment. If waste is to be recycled, the process should be
outlined in the report.
6. Project Size refers to a description of the magnitude of operation including any associated activities
required by or for the project using parameters specified in Annex 2-1b of the Revised Procedural
Manual for DAO 2003-30.
7. Development Plan, Description of Project Phases and Corresponding Timeframes refer to a detailed
description of the processes and activities, including timeframes associated with the different phases
(i.e., pre-construction, construction, operation, abandonment) of the proposed project.
8. In the Manpower section, the estimated number of people that will be employed in the various project
phases should be provided. The skill and qualification requirements should likewise be indicated.
9. The Indicative Project Investment Cost is a natural outgrowth of the proposed project expenditures
covering the entire project operation tasks and staffing processes. The cost estimate should be tied
up with the overall performance and realization of the proposed project covering the period from preplanning to pre-construction, construction, operation, and all way to the abandonment phase of the
entire engagement.

12

EIA DRR/CCA TECHNICAL GUIDELINES

Section II. Key Environmental Impact and Management / Monitoring Plan


Key Environmental Impact
The current policy directive under DENR MC 2010-14 is to focus the EIA Report requirement to the most
essential information and on the environmental aspects that have scientific basis and are verifiable for
specific project types. As such, integrated analysis by environmental receptors (i.e., land, water, air and
people) shall be used in presenting the baseline information, impact assessment, impact management
and impact monitoring.
The discussions shall be based on the pre-identified project-specific environmental impact as reflected in
the various screening forms developed. The required baseline information has likewise been focused on
the relevant parameters in relation to the pre-identified key environmental impact.
The nature of the environmental impact shall be analyzed as to whether these are direct or indirect,
synergistic or cumulative, short-, medium- or long-term, permanent or temporary, positive or negative.
The impact should also be investigated and described with particular regard to identifying its effects on
biodiversity, soil, water, air, climate, coastal landscape, human health risk and the interactions among
them.
The expected relevance that the projected impact will have for people and the environment should be
considered in this section. The sources of standards and criteria, along with the rationale, assumptions
and value judgments used in assessing significance should be fully described. The significance of an
impact should be assessed, taking into consideration national and international quality standards, where
available.
Local land use plans, guidelines and policies shall serve as the main reference point of discussions. If
necessary, additional data shall be collected to support the assessment, taking into account natural and
human activities.
The analysis of impact should consider not only the current baseline scenario but also climate change
projections and disaster risks specifically for relevant parameters that have been pre-identified and
reflected in the EIS Screening Forms. The section should also include sufficient background in terms of
climate trends and climate change projections that may affect the project area. The level of detail in this
description should be sufficient to convey the general nature of the environmental and social resources
condition of the affected areas.
The proponent/preparer must be able to formulate an EMP that describes how the mitigation and other
environmental measures will be implemented. These measures should be set out to cover all phases of
the project from pre-construction, construction, operation through decommissioning phase, and should
outline mitigation and other measures that will be undertaken to ensure compliance with environmental
regulations and reduce or eliminate adverse impact. The cost of mitigation should be assessed and
included in the report.
The proponent/preparer must also be able to formulate appropriate risk reduction and adaptation
measures that would address significant disaster and climate change impact at the project level. These
measures must address adverse impact of the project on the environment as well as the impact of the
environment on the project.
Environmental Monitoring Plan (EMoP)
The proponent/EIA consultant must be able to formulate an EMoP that would monitor the following
concerns: a) extent and severity of the actual environmental impact against the predicted impact; b)
performance of the environmental protection measures or compliance with pertinent rules and
regulations; c)trends in impact; and, d) overall effectiveness of the projects EMP.

13

EIA DRR/CCA TECHNICAL GUIDELINES

The EMoP should identify specific parameters to be monitored based on impact assessment as well as
the necessary sampling and measurement plan, responsible entity/ies and environmental quality
performance management scheme.
A specific monitoring scheme should be developed for each of the pre-identified environmental impact for
specific project types as identified in the various EIS screening forms. The submission of such monitoring
plan/s shall be verified prior to official acceptance of the EIS for ECC applications.
As a guide for completeness checking prior to official acceptance of the EIS for ECC applications, blank
columns are provided on the right side of the list of key environmental impact, baseline data and
assessment method requirement. Page numbers where the baseline data, impact assessment, impact
management and monitoring plan requirements can be found within the EIS shall be indicated in the
screening form by the proponent/preparer along with the EIS submitted for procedural screening.
Section III. Environmental / Ecological Risks Assessment
This component of the EIA Screening Form is required if the proposed project involves hazardous, toxic,
flammable, or explosive materials or chemicals, or if it involves the construction of structures such as
dams and bridges, which would endanger life, property, or the environment should they fail.
Appropriate and sufficient data shall be provided in the Project Description for
Scoping (PDS) to allow for determination whether an ERA is required
or not.
The preparer/proponent shall undertake initial screening (for ERA coverage)
which will be validated during the scoping process. The scoping process
is deemed complete only when it includes the determination of ERA
requirement.
For these types of projects, the PDS should include the following:
-

Projected inventory of hazardous materials


Material Safety Data Sheet of the hazardous materials
Level of Coverage Computation based on Annex 2-7e of the Revised Procedural
Manual for DAO 2003-30 (for projects involving hazardous, toxic, flammable, or
explosive materials or chemicals and other unclassified hazardous materials)
Maximum impounding/storage capacity (for projects involving the construction of
structures such as dams and bridges, which would endanger life, property, or the
environment should they fail.

During scoping, the type of risk shall be identified by putting a check mark () in the boxes provided in
the first column of the last page of the screening forms. The requirement for a Quantitative Risk
Assessment (QRA) shall be decided upon during the scoping based on the validation of the Level of
Coverage Computation done or based on technical discussions. A check mark () shall then be placed
in the box provided if a QRA would be required.
As a guide for completeness checking prior to official acceptance of the EIS for ECC applications,
blank columns are provided on the right side of the ERA requirement listing. Page numbers where
the specific risk assessment, emergency response plan and the monitoring plan requirements can be
found within the EIS shall be provided by the proponent/preparer along with the EIS submitted for
procedural screening.
Section IV. Impact Management Plan (IMP)
In general, the proponent/EIA consultant assesses the impact on various environmental aspects as a
result of a proposed project. Once the impact have been examined, their significance should be
14

EIA DRR/CCA TECHNICAL GUIDELINES

determined, i.e., whether they are acceptable, require mitigation, or considered unacceptable.
Corresponding measures will have to be provided to mitigate adverse impact or enhance positive impact
at all stages of project implementation from pre-construction/construction to operation all the way to the
abandonment/decommissioning stage. The IMP should ensure that all residual environmental impact are
appropriately and adequately managed. Methods that would be implemented may include technical,
social, and institutional measures to be made integral elements of the project.
The section should contain both a narrative summary of significant impact and a matrix (see Annex 2-17
of the Revised Procedural Manual for the format).
As regards to climate change, the assessment may consider the nature, extent and magnitude of
changes likely to be contributed by a proposed project to climate change. More importantly, the
assessment should examine the impact of climate change on the project. Also, the assessment should
scrutinize the potential aggravating effects of climate change on the projects environmental impact. For
example, climate change may aggravate the effect of the project on the extent or magnitude of flooding in
the area.
Assessment should be aided by various tools and techniques, the choice of which depends upon the
nature of the impact, data availability or lack of it, and the appropriate specifics of models employed
based on certain criteria established. All of these will have to be written down in a manner that is
comprehensible to the non-specialist. Tables, graphs and other devices should be used as appropriate.
Unnecessary technical or obscure language should be avoided. Technical terms, acronyms and initials
should be defined, either when first introduced into the text or in a glossary.
Section V. Social Development Plan (SDP) and IEC Framework
The SDP and IEC Framework shall be required for all ECPs. These may be required for EIS-Based ECC
applications for non ECPs at the discretion of the EMB-Regional Office (RO).
Social Development Plan (SDP)
The SDP of the project shall be derived from and aligned with the LGU's existing SDP. The project's SDP
normally aims to prevent/mitigate the projects adverse impact and enhance the positive impact on
people's livelihood, health and environment. The SDP shall contain the following: a) livelihood or
community development programs/activities, b) responsible party and/or beneficiaries, c) partner
institutions (government, NGO, others), d) timeframe of implementation, and e) source of funds and
amount allocated per activity/component.
Information, Education and Communication (IEC) Framework
IEC is a critical component of the project to establish support, linkages, and participation of the
stakeholders by raising awareness about the proposed project and its impact on the environment,
including climate change, natural hazards and the associated risks and vulnerabilities. Public
consultations are needed to generate awareness, enable informed opinions/views, and solicit
suggestions/approaches from the community. It is important that misconceptions are clarified and
stakeholders are fully aware and well informed so as to eventually stimulate dynamic participation and
support in the implementation of adequate responses in the locality.
The IEC Framework shall include the following information: a) Target Sector Identified as needing Project
IEC, b) Major topic/s or concerns in relation to the project, c) IEC Scheme/Strategy/Methods, d)
Information medium, e) Indicative timelines and frequency, and f) Indicative cost.
Section VI. Environmental Compliance Monitoring
This section describes the monitoring activities to be carried out to ensure that adverse environmental
impact will be minimized and the EMP is implemented. It describes how, when, where the environmental
15

EIA DRR/CCA TECHNICAL GUIDELINES

compliance monitoring activities will be undertaken; who will carry them out; and, who should receive the
monitoring report. It should also clearly describe the commitment of the proponent and identify the
implementation scheme and source of funds for such activities.
Section VII. Emergency Preparedness and Response Policy and Generic Guidelines
In general, the Emergency Preparedness and Response Policy and Generic Guidelines aim to prevent,
control and/or limit possible on-site and off-site negative impact arising from adverse events associated
with a particular project in a given area. Also, in anticipation of adverse impact of climate change, an
Emergency Response Plan should be designed to provide mitigation measures, if not prevent occurrence
of adverse impact, which could lead to accidents, and to reduce the magnitude of consequences in the
event that accidents may happen.
An Emergency Response Plan should have the following components, which should consider
vulnerabilities to disaster risk and climate change:
Safety Management Policy
Emergency Response Organization
Evacuation and Rescue Plan
Fire/Toxic Gas Explosion Accident Prevention and Control
Section VIII. Abandonment / Decommissioning / Rehabilitation Policy
The essence of abandonment/decommissioning and rehabilitation should be to restore the stability of the
project site, improve the aesthetic quality, and render the land suitable for some other productive uses.
In addition, the Abandonment and Rehabilitation Policies and Procedures to be adopted by the proponent
should aim to achieve the following: a) reduce or eliminate adverse environmental effects once the project
ceases to operate; b) re-establish physical and biological conditions which meet regulatory requirements;
and, c) ensure that the decommissioned project does not pose an unacceptable risk to public health and
safety.
Section IX. Institutional Plan for EMP Implementation
The Plan should indicate the institutional set-up with specific responsibilities that will ensure effective
implementation of the EMP.
The plan should specifically define an institutional structure that would: a) ensure the integration of all
environmental concerns in overall planning through coordination with affected stakeholders; b) ensure
observance of proper safeguards in the execution of all activities, including those in existence that have,
or are likely to have significant impact on the environment; and, c) enforce environmental standards,
regulations and policies relating to environment safety, public health, ecology and biodiversity.

D. PROCEDURES IN USING THE DRR/CCA-ENHANCED IEE CHECKLIST


REPORT FORMS
1.

Purpose of the IEE Checklist Report Forms

For projects where an Initial Environmental Examination (IEE) Checklist Report Form is prescribed,
DRR/CCA-enhanced IEE Checklist Report Forms have been developed to serve as the EIA Report
submission for ECC application. Concerns on disaster and climate change risks have been integrated
into the Checklist Forms.

16

EIA DRR/CCA TECHNICAL GUIDELINES

The Checklist Forms have been customized for specific industry types where the following have been
pre-identified:
specific impact expected of specific industry types
disaster risk reduction measures and/or climate change adaptation options that
considered/studied and incorporated in the project design

should be

The purpose of the forms is to guide users (e.g., the project proponent, EMB and other stakeholders) in
implementing a risk-based planning and management system for the proposed project in consideration of
environmental management concerns, as well as climate change and disaster risks concerns. The
Checklist Forms also provide a pre-structured and enhanced environmental management plan which has
integrated climate change adaptation and disaster risk reduction considerations as an input to the overall
project design.
The IEE Checklist Report Form is a simplified form identifying all the activities of the proposed project and
sources of impact, including those arising from disaster risk and climate change. The assessment covers
all activities from construction to operation or decommissioning of the project, and considers these
alongside the characteristics of the project environment that could be affected, and determines where
there could be interactions among them.

2. Use of the IEE Checklist Report Forms


The IEE Checklist Report Forms were designed based on the prescribed outline in DENR Memorandum
Circular 2010-14 dated 29 June 2010. The idea was to simplify and standardize EIA Reports such that
minimal technical expertise would be required in filling up the forms.
The IEE Checklist Report Forms contain a series of questions dealing with issues and concerns about the
proposed project and its environment. The checklist will also provide information on the proposed
projects environmental impact, both positive and negative. The information contained in the checklist will
serve as basis for the review and assessment of the EMB Regional Office to either approve or deny an
ECC application.

Project proponents are strongly discouraged from engaging the services of


consultants/facilitators to accomplish/fill-up the IEE Checklist Report Form.
The Report Forms have been designed to be user-friendly.
Furthermore, EMB Regional Offices are required to complete the processing of
an ECC application using the IEE Checklist Report within twenty (20) working
days upon receipt of completed/duly-accomplished forms.

Executive Summary (Project Fact Sheet)


The Project Fact Sheet serves as the Executive Summary of the IEE Checklist Report Form. It provides
an overview of the project.
Project Description
The project proponent should furnish details that would give a brief but clear picture of the following:
Project Location and Area. Use maps showing general location, specific location, project
boundary and project site layout accompanied by specific geographical coordinates.
Project Component. Present, in tabular form, a clear description of the project components,
such as number of units or size, types of equipment/support facility/ies accompanied by specific
details, which are likely to cause environmental effects. The table should also include support
facilities and pollution control device/s.
Utilities Requirement. Provide an estimate and source of the power and water requirement.
Manpower Requirement. Provide an estimated labor requirement for both the construction and
operation phases.
Indicative Project Cost. Provide an estimated project cost in Philippine Pesos equivalent.
Environmental Impact and Management Plan
This Plan, prepared in matrix form, provides the checklist of environmental parameters for different
projects.
Possible Environmental/Social Impact. This section will serve to screen out no significant impact from
those with significant adverse impact by reviewing each relevant parameter according to the various
factors or operational stages.
Baseline Data Parameter. The proponent should enumerate significant data which describes the existing
environmental status of the identified study area. The project proponent must select an answer by
checking the appropriate box(es), as necessary.
In addition, the project proponent must also select/check appropriate measures designed to address the
potential disaster risks and climate change impact of the proposed project, as necessary. Note that these
disaster and climate change considerations have been integrated into the matrix. Mitigation measures,
where appropriate, were pre-identified as recommended measures to address environmental issues.
Potential environmental enhancement and adaptation measures are also included.
Monitoring Parameters/Implementation. This column describes the parameters that should be
monitored to ensure that adverse environmental impact are addressed. Also, as appropriate, climate
change monitoring parameters have been included.
Cost of Mitigation. Mitigation is the stage when measures are identified to avoid, minimize or remedy
impact. These measures are implemented as part of the process of impact management along with any
necessary adjustments to respond to unforeseen impact. This would therefore require financial support to
realize such undertakings. Under this column, the Project Proponent must commit to allocate some
amount to cover expenditures in implementing these measures.

concerns in overall planning through coordination with affected stakeholders; b) ensure observance of
proper safeguards in the execution of all activities, including those in existence that have or are likely to
have significant impact on the environment; and, c)enforce environmental standards, regulations and
policies relating to environment safety, public health, ecology and biodiversity. A flowchart or diagram
may be used to show the interrelationship of the various elements or components of the Plan.
For the IEE Checklist Report Form, the organization chart with a brief description of the job
functions/responsibilities of key officer/s shall suffice as compliance. The appropriate space is provided
for this purpose.

5. Documentary Requirements
The IEE Checklist Report Form shall be submitted along with the following supporting documents:
