4. LINKAGE TO NATIONAL PRIORITIES, ACTION PLANS AND PROGRAMMES:
There are several initiatives that have been made which are linked to national priorities, action plans
and programmes. It was in 1991 when the local government code was legislated under Republic Act
7061. The Republic Act 8550 and the Fisheries Code was then formulated in 1998. Both enactments
support the local governments primary role in marine sanctuary management and coastal resources
management. In 2001 the Wildlife Act under Republic Act 9147 was made for the protection of
biodiversity and regulation of bioperspectives and research in the Philippines. For the management of
marine protected areas and sanctuaries, the National Integrated Protected Areas System (NIPAS) Act
and Republic Act 8435, Agriculture & Fisheries Modernization respectively have been instruments
that have been used to support activities on site. It was also in 1994 where the Oyon Bay was
declared as protected seascape thus facilitating the establishment of an environment fund. Republic
Act 8435, Agriculture and Fisheries Modernization was also established for the protection of the rights
of indigenous peoples, and also technical support especially research in the area.
Having these initiatives, the central government has been assisting the local government in making
ordinances, loans and programs creating co-financing which is given in cash and in-kind.
Masinloc, Zambales has high priority level for marine conservation particularly for molluscs,
cetaceans, turtles, whale sharks and corals as published in the Philippine Biodiversity Conservation
Priorities: A Second Iteration of the National Biodiversity Strategy and Action Plan (Ong, 2002).

6. NATIONAL FOCAL POINT AND/OR NATIONAL TECHNICAL FOCAL POINT ENDORSEMENT
AND/OR COMMENTS:
Comments:
The Masinloc marine sanctuary is one of the relatively few bigger sized sanctuaries in the Philippines.
Its networking of MPAs would be a good model to demonstrate the synergistic outcome from good
practices derived from co-management arrangements and technical advice. Since Masinloc has been
considered to have high priority level in terms of marine conservation (Ong, 2002), the demonstration
site is highly endorsed and recommended to be approved and implemented.

7. SITE DESCRIPTION (FULL SITE CHARACTERIZATION AS ANNEX I)
AREA
Oyon Bay, Masinloc lies between 119'52" to 119"58E longitude and 15"28"32" to 15"34"47"N latitude.
It is located in the northern part of Zambales and has an area of 7,568 hectares. The municipality
includes the island-barangay of San Salvador, located about 2.5 km away from the mainland. The
total coastline length is about 42.2 km (27.7 km on the mainland part of the municipality, 4.8 km in
northern Panglit and 9.7 km in San Salvador Island. The reef area of Masinloc Bay is 51% of the total
reef area (28.84 km2) of the whole municipality.
ENVIRONMENT
Meteorological
Masinloc, like the rest of Zambales province, falls under Type I climate, based on the modified
coronas classification of PAG-ASA. This climate is characterized by two pronounced seasons, dry
from November to May and wet during the rest of the year. Maximum rainfall is experienced during
the month of August with the presence of the southwest monsoon and occasional typhoons. The
coolest month of the year occurs during January with mean temperature of 26.6oC while the hottest
occurs during May with the mean temperature of 28.3oC (PAGASA).
Physical
The coastal waters of Masinloc are bounded on the east by a series of embayments and are exposed
to the South China Sea, sheltered only by a few islands. As a result, there is a strong gradient in
water properties (turbidity, nutrient distribution) across the shelf, which supports a variety of important
habitats. A persistent northward flow offshore is believed to contribute to the connectivity between
Masinloc and other ecosystems west of Luzon.
Geological
The demonstration site is located in the Zambales range which is about 220 km, long and 40 km wide.
The range consists of high peaks and rugged ridges notably Mt. Iba is approximately 1,606 m. and
Mt. Pinatubo which is 1,778 m. Small coastal plains and low rolling hills characterize the northern
portion of the area. The Zambales range is composed of mafic-ultramatic rocks commonly termed as
the Zambales Ultramatic Complex and is part of a complete ophiolite sequence consisting of
metamorphic peridotite, layered gabbro, diabase dike, swarms, chert and pelagic sediments known as
the Aksitero Formation.
HABITATS
Coral Reef
Coral reefs are widespread except for Oyon Bay to Collat and Southeastern San Salvador Island.
Corals in the northern transect appeared healthy (54% hard coral cover) but were less so close to the
outfall of the power plant (14% hard coral cover and less). They were also somewhat depauperate of
reef fish (7-8 MT/sq km) (ICRMP, 2003).
The present environmental state has a high live coral cover for all species (29% inside and 33%
outside the MPA. In the last decade there was minimal change in the live coral cover in the area (from
25% in 1991 to 27% in 2002) (AFMA MFR Project, 2003). The algae cover was 34% inside and 28%
outside the MPA.
Coral reefs are critical habitats for marine life as they play an important role in the productivity of the
coastal ecosystem. In Masinloc, the coral reef areas serve as important nursery and spawning areas
for a variety of commercially important fishery species. They recycle and concentrate nutrients from
the near shore open areas/seas. They also protect the coastline from erosion by wave action.
A total of 271 reef fish and reef-associated species belonging to 35 families are recorded from San
Salvador. The number of coral reef fish was 79/249 (number of genera/number of species) with coral
reef fish density of 13 reef fishes per 114 ha. The general fish biomass estimates fall within the
medium category (i.e., within the range of 10-20 mT/km2) (Arceo et al 2003) from the classification
estimate established for the country (see Naņola et al., 2002).
2
Seagrass
The study noted that seagrass beds are dominated by the genera - Thalassia, Enhalus, and
Halophila. The seagrass abound in the mudflats and shallow areas along the coasts of Masinloc,
Palauig, Magalawa, San Salvador, San Miguel and Panglit islands. Patches of seagrass (Enhalus sp.)
were observed in the inner bay west of San Slavador Island and South of the Poblacion. A total of
eight segrass species have been reported from the Oyon Bay-Bani Point area (EIA, 1994).
Seagrass beds are important coastal resources. Similar to mangroves and coral reefs, they are also
part of a critical habitat for marine life. Seagrass transplanting is one approach to its restoration and
has been tested in the area.
Mangroves
Masinloc has 261 hectares in good condition. The areas are dominated by mangrove species such as
Rhizphora apiculata, Avicennia alba and A. officinalis. Nipa and bakauan are located in small patches.
Mangroves have an important role as breeding area for marine organisms. The forests provide food
and shelter providing protection of the coastline against erosion. Regulation of or prohibition of
harvesting of mangrove is an important step in protecting the forests.
Marine Biodiversity
Masinloc, Zambales is biologically diverse. It has a considerable number of Scleractinian coral
species, reef fishes and alga. Nearly 40% (24 genera) of the total recorded in the South China Sea
region is found in Masinloc. Live coral cover shows at least 10% increase over the decade (1999-
2002). There are 45 families of reef fishes identified in the area with 139 genera and 390 species
recorded, which is 60% of the total recorded in the national reef fish visual census database. Coral
reef fish density ranges from 1560-13680 per hectare. Reef fishes can be considered over-exploited
because of the rampant illegal activities in the area. There are 59 genera of algae with 110 species
observed. In 2002, the present algal cover inside the MPA was 34% and 28% outside the MPA
(AFMA-MFR Project).
IUCN Red Listed endangered marine turtles Chelonia mydas and Erethmochelys imbricata have been
reported to nest in the sandy shores of Masinloc. In 1993, it has been nationally recognized to have a
managed resource protected area (IUCN Category). Masinloc, Zambales is recognized as a priority
area for the marine conservation for cetaceans, whale sharks and turtles (Ong et al., 2002).
PRESENT USE
Mining
Masinloc is a town found on an area with huge deposits of chromite in its mountains. A mining
company, BCI-Coto in Masinloc is now operating a property used to export monthly an average of 1-
1.5 million pesos worth of chromite ore, mined from what is known to be the biggest deposit of
refractory ore in the world. Accounting for the bigger volume of shipping done here, as compared to
that handled at San Fernando, La Union, Masinloc was declared a port of entry
(www.zambales.gov.ph/about.html).
Status of the Fishery and Aquatic Resources
The municipality shares almost an equal market leadership position with Sta. Cruz in terms of number
of commercial and municipal fishing vessels operating in the area. Masinloc can be developed as a
fishing port or fish production and/or processing area. Fishing is the primary source of income for
about 29% of households in Masinloc. The inshore and near shore fisheries employ 1,750 fishermen.
There are 490 motorized fishing vessels, 255 non-motorized fishing vessels and 20 commercial
fishing vessels that employ at least 30 crew per fishing vessel. Fish production of tuna, skipjack,
roundscad, dolphin, Spanish mackerel and sharks recorded 4,050 m tons in 1998 valued at
approximately P202.5 million. There are two (2) existing ice plants in the area with 10.0 tons daily
product in capacity.
Commercial/municipal fishing is the primary source of livelihood of 29% of household in Masinloc.
There are three (3) existing piers/wharves in the area (NAPOCOR, Benguet Corporation and Matalvis
Fish Port) which highlights the potential of the area as a port municipality.
The municipal waters of Masinloc have abundant marine species such as yellow fin (tuna), skipjack
(roundscud), squid, octopus, lapu-lapu, sea urchin, sea cucumber, Spanish mackerel, seaweed, and
other marine species that command high market values.

Transportation
The Masinloc Bay is near the international sea-lanes, with good deep seabed suitable for cargo ships
(at least 18 meters deep).
MANAGEMENT REGIME
Masinloc has a 127 has Marine Sanctuary Project (San Salvador Island). In 1988, the LGU in
collaboration with an NGO (Haribon Foundation Inc.) and the community established a Marine
Sanctuary/Marine Reservation in San Salvador, covering an area of 127.5 hectares or 1.69% of the
total 7560 hectares Oyon Bay, Masinloc. A percentage of non-contiguous areas were declared as
marine reservation where limited fishing was allowed. The establishment of a sanctuary and
reservation were crucial for regulating the fishing industry in Masinloc. These protected areas
guaranteed the sustained replenishment and regeneration of the marine resources that were in
danger of being over exploited past sustainable levels.
Institutions involved in environment and natural resources management in general, and coastal
management and marine biodiversity conservation in particular include national government agencies
(NGAs), local government units (LGUs) and non-governmental organizations (NGOs). They operate
from the national down to the village levels. Aside from the Philippine Council for Sustainable
Development (PCSD), the most prominent agencies at the national level are the DA, the DENR, and
the Philippine National Police (PNP)-Maritime. For the LGUs, the relevant units include the offices
handling functions related to planning, agriculture and the environment. NGOs/POs are now playing
active roles in Coastal Resources Management (CRM). Among these key NGOs/POs are Samahang
Pangkaunlaran ng San Salvador and the Nagkakaisang Mamamayan ng Mangingisda sa Bani.
Institutional arrangements in Masinloc regarding coastal resources management (that covers coral
reef management and marine bio-diversity conservation) are still labelled as `loose'. There are no
clearly defined roles and responsibilities. Although the agencies tend to coordinate their efforts, the
coordination activities are largely informal. In some ways, the relationships that are being established
are more inter-personal, rather than institutional.
8. STAKEHOLDERS: (Stakeholder involvement plan as Annex II)
The Local Government Unit
The LGU Masinloc is one of 832 coastal municipalities in the Philippines. Eleven of its thirteen
barangays are located along the Oyon Bay, Masinloc, where some 1,850 marginal fisher folk live and
depend on its marine resources. People's initiatives to rehabilitate and protect the remaining coastal
ecosystem were manifested in the LGU's project i.e., the San Salvador Marine Conservation Project
and the project partnership for mangrove reforestation activities with an NGO based in Masinloc.
Subsequently LGU Masinloc has been recognized as champion of the environment for having won
the 1996 "Galing Pook Award" through the Marine Conservation Project in San Salvador Island
(MCPSSI).
The Samahang Pangkaunlaran ng San Salvador (SPSS)
The SPSS is a People's Organization in the island of San Salvador, a group recognized as coastal
environmentally oriented citizens. They are considered to be coastal dwellers dependent generally on
fishing for their livelihood and subsistence. The SPSS is also in charge in the management of the
existing marine fish sanctuary in the area.
The Bantay Dagat Volunteers
Fifty (50) deputized Bantay Dagat Volunteers in Masinloc were tasked to enforce the implementation
of RA 8550 otherwise known as Philippine Fishery Code and the local Fishery Ordinances within the
7,560-hectare Masinloc municipal waters.
The Nagkakaisang Mamamayan para sa Kalikasan ng Bani (NMKB)
The NMKB is a non-stock, non-profit association whose aim is to have a community of small fishers,
who will sustainably protect, manage and enrich the coastal areas/seas to respond to the needs of the
organization, the community and future generations.

The National Power Corporation NPC- Masinloc Coal Fired Thermal Power Plant (MCFTPP)
NPC recognizes society's expectation of their social responsibility. It adheres to the conditionalities of
the Environmental Compliance Certificate (ECC) issued by the DENR and the guidelines as stipulated
in the National Integrated Protected Areas System (NIPAS) ACT thereby proclaiming the 7650
hectares Oyon Bay, Masinloc as protected Seascape. NPC prepares and implements the coastal
area management plan for Oyon Bay. This plan provides a course of action for the management of
the coastal area around the MCFTPP thus ensuring environmentally sustainable use and
development of coastal resources of Oyon Bay. Also in compliance to the ECC conditionalities a
Multi-Partite Monitoring Committee (MPMC) was created by virtue of Resolution No. 05-94 of the
Sangguniang Bayan of Masinloc on January 24, 1994. The MPMC was primarily aimed at monitoring
the compliance of the NPC to the ECC conditions and stipulations and to address the social and
environmental concerns of the residents of Masinloc.
The Migrants
The physical configuration of the municipality of Masinloc makes the municipality open for in-migration
especially from the Visayas and other areas. Thus, different languages and dialects are spoken in
Masinloc. Locals blame transient migrants for the deteriorating condition of their coastal resources.
The use of illegal methods of fishing, especially sodium cyanide in the live fish industry, is attributed to
the transient fishermen.
9. THREATS: (Full causal chain analysis as Annex III)
The major threats to coral reefs in the municipality are unsustainable fishing practices, crown of
thorns outbreaks, visitor trampling and anchor damage. Rampant use of cyanide in the live reef fish
industry, blast fishing, non-selective fishing of juvenile or sexually mature target species, and
encroachment of commercial fishers into municipal waters remain prevalent. The use of cyanide and
non-selective fishing are considered to be the most critical threats because of the geographic extent
and intensity of operations. An apparent decrease of fish harvest (33%) within the vicinities was
perceived to be due to poison fishing, blast fishing and poaching and siltation from massive land use
are also of concern.
The operations of four (4) major industrial firms in the area: Benguet Corporation's chromite
operation, C-square mining Petron Oil Depot Bulk Plant and the Masinloc Coal-Fired Thermal Power
Plant, are considered as contributory factors to the degradation of the coastal environment. The coal-
fired plant consists of two (2) units producing a combined 600 MW of electricity.
Pollution and possible damage to the marine resources might be due to the condensing process,
circulating water (or cooling water) is pumped through condenser tubes to absorb the heat content of
the exhaust steam. The heated seawater flows into the discharge canal going into the Oyon Bay.
Thus, the MCFTPP operations might possibly damage the coral reefs areas within the vicinity of the
plant.
Lack of waste disposal/management system and the settlements for the residents of Matalviz, who
are coastal dwellers and depends largely on fishing as their primary source of livelihood and
subsistence may pose a threat of coastal pollution in the area. 80% of the dwellers do not have
toilets, which may provide adverse impacts on waste disposal.
The root cause under IEC is the poor understanding and awareness of environmental concerns of the
coastal communities and other organizations that uses the resources. Poor understanding about the
significance of the coral reefs prompted activities (may it be industrial and domestic) such as pollution
and over-fishing. Lack of alternative livelihood is one of the reasons of over-fishing where fishermen
resort to illegal fishing and destructive activities (e.g., blast/sodium cyanide). Inadequate coordination
of concerned management bodies is also identified as a problem in Masinloc, Zambales. This
inadequacy directed to mangrove destruction (e.g., deforestation and illegal cutting) and other illegal
activities that lead to coral reef degradation and fisheries decline. Under the capacity building, low
capability of institutions to implement coastal resource management (CRM) creates ecosystem
instability from accident oil spills and sudden changes in the environment (e.g., El Niņo effect). Lastly,
restocking and rehabilitation activities were not successful in the area. The root cause of the problem
identified is the poor economic conditions of the coastal communities pushing them to over-fish the
area.
5
Five interventions were identified in the causal chain analysis (Annex III) which will promote a
decreqse in coral reef degradation and fisheries, (1) information and education campaign (IEC), (2)
Livelihood alternative, (3) management and coordination, (4) capacity building and (5) restocking and
rehabilitation.
10. GOALS AND PURPOSE:
The main goal of the project is to sustain and promote co-management of marine sanctuaries that will
help the coastal community. The livelihood opportunities that will be established and implemented are
targeted to serve as incentives for reef stewardship.
11. RATIONALE:
Masinloc, Zambales is one of the 832 coastal municipalities in the Philippines. Eleven out of 13
barangays are located along the Oyon Bay, Masinloc, where some 1,850 marginal fisherfolks live and
depend on its marine resources. The Oyon Bay, Masinloc accounted to 7,560 hectares. The
deteriorating state of the bay's marine resources is apparent in the decrease in fish catch of fishers.
Official catch statistics showing reduction from landings of 1,500 tons in 1990 to 90 metric tons in
1992 should be treated with caution since some of the sites that were monitored in 1990 were not
monitored back in 1992. Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) survey reports
in 1994 indicate that 37% of the coral reefs in the area are in poor condition. In order to reverse the
deteriorating state of the Oyon Bay, Masinloc, the LGU and the community in collaboration with
NGOs/POs have jointly established and managed a 127.5 hectares marine sanctuary. A co-
management arrangement with DENR was formalized through the Executive Order Proclamation of
the whole Oyon Bay, Masinloc as a Protected Seascape. Pursuant to the NIPAS ACT and the local
government code. This project proposal will demonstrate the enhancement of conditions of the coral
reefs in the municipality through adaptive co-management and community based CRM.
OBJECTIVES: Specifically the projects aims to:
A. To demonstrate sustainable community-based marine sanctuaries network.
· To develop adaptive management strategies and coordination through monitoring and
performance MPA networks;
·
To enhance coral reef and their adjacent mangrove areas;
·
To regulate and manage reef uses in surrounding reef areas.
B. To help build local co-management capacities and strengthen law enforcement capabilities of
Bantay dagat (sea wardens) personnel together with the establishment of cooperative
coordination systems.
C. To conduct and implement livelihood support mechanisms by determining the potential alternative
and/or supplemental livelihood options and establishing appropriate guidelines/policies for reef
stewardship.
D. To conduct Information Education Campaign in order to develop public awareness about
environmental issues and concerns through the production of brochures and posters of coastal
resources of Masinloc, Zamables and broadcasting knowledge on radio station.
12. OUTCOMES:
1. Enhanced sustainability of coral reef adaptive co-management with the government and
community-based stakeholders as seen in the implementation and their adjustment in the
implementation of management plans, the performance of management bodies with regular
allocation budget.
2. Maintained health of reefs and their associated ecological goods and services based on
participatory impact monitoring and evaluation.
3. Improved quality life of fisher stakeholders as indicated by an increase in supplemental incomes
derived from reef stewardship.
4. Strengthened capacity of governing bodies and stakeholder stewardship as seen in compliance of
policies and good monitoring and evaluation practices (e.g., participatory performance).

13. PLANNED ACTIVITIES TO ACHIEVE OUTCOMES
(Monitoring and evaluation plan as Annex IV)
Component 1. Demonstrating sustainable community-based marine sanctuaries network
Comparative day to day operations involving the establishment of the marine sanctuary including the
orientation and training activities (e.g., monitoring and evaluation, restocking of giant clams and sea
urchin, coral reef and mangrove rehabilitation). Consultation meetings with PAMB, fisher communities
and other stakeholders will be coordinated. With the assistance of consultants biophysical monitoring
activities inside and outside (adjacent) the community-based marine sanctuary will be conducted.
Socio-economic costs and benefits derived from marine sanctuary co-management will be evaluated.
Initial appraisal and detailed benchmarking assessment of the 2 potential additional marine
sanctuaries will also be conducted along with public hearings and community consultations as part of
management planning and implementation process. Reef fishery and licensing system will also be
established and implemented as a mechanism for regulation, information gathering and fisheries
management. The fisherfolks will be trained on proper restocking and grow-out methods of marine
species such as the giant clams, sea urchins and coral transplantation. Mangrove planting will also be
implemented during the project period.

improvement of the proposed network of MPAs. The exchange between the demonstration sites will
be promoted by attending MPA network meetings at different adjacent sites. Consultation meetings
with the MPA network and advocates will also be conducted. People's Organization will be
subcontracted to conduct orientation and training for skills development and promote team building for
various marine sanctuary management teams. The Bantay Dagat (sea wardens) personnel will
undertake legal and paralegal training. Implementation of Information Education Campaign (IEC) will
complement law enforcement operations and the capabilities of the Bantay Dagat. Participatory
impact evaluation together with performance monitoring and incentive system will be formulated.
Public consultation meetings in the community together with the private sector (e.g., National Power
Corporation) will be undertaken to forge private-public partnerships together with the local
government and National Government Agencies (NGAs).
2.1 Team building efforts for various marine sanctuary management teams
2.2 Legal and paralegal training of Bantay dagat personnel
2.3 Strengthen law enforcement capabilities of Bantay dagat (sea wardens) personnel
Component 3. Supplemental livelihood linked to the stewardship of the marine sanctuary

4.2 Install permanent notice boards for raising awareness on coral reefs and their
announcements
4.3 Radiobroadcast of information on the coral reef ecosystem and appropriate management
actions being undertaken
4.4 Prepare middle school curricula on coral reef ecological management
4.5 Meetings of Protected Area Management Board (PAMB) and Strategic Action Plan for
Masinloc
4.6 Publication of the reports
14. SUSTAINABILITY ANALYSES AND RISK ASSESSMENT
Sustainability
Sustainability criteria will be based on at least three interrelated multiple areas in the biophysical,
legal, institutional and financial aspects. The biophysical sustainability criteria should imply that critical
threats are effectively stopped (e.g., destructive and illegal fishing practices and result in improvement
of the ecosystem state e.g., increase in fish abundance and coral cover.
The legal and institutional arrangements are considered sustainable when inter-hierarchical
complementation is achieved at the village level, provincial and national level indicated by legitimized
plans, formal agreements and functional cooperative arrangements such as regular meetings held
and functional management criteria are continued by multisectoral bodies through the establishment
of various accountable management bodies that practice good governance procedures.
In addition, the establishment of MPA network in coordination with the CRM council and national
government agency will incorporate these strategies and action plan in the provincial, regional and
national medium-term development plan (MTDP).
Financial sustainability would be achieved if a regularized budget of at least $1000/year is provided
for each marine sanctuary by the local government to support the village level stewardship. A budget
of $10000 annually provided by the local government to the Coastal Resource Management (CRM)
office to support FARMC activities. A budget of $2500 for Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) and
Performance Management Plan (PMP) and multisectoral fund established jointly by government and
other stakeholders with at least $5000 annually.
These funds in conjunction with the livelihood repayments and IRA will be plowed back through a
regularized budget from CRM activities and monitoring.
Financial sustainability
Energy Regulation Act No. 1-94 of the Department of Energy (NPC)
Provides funding equivalent to 35% municipal share for the implementation of the Reforestation
Watershed Management, Health and Environment Enhancement Projects for the municipality of
Masinloc.
Provides financial and technical assistance in the implementation of environmental related projects
particularly the development of coastal resources management through the formulation of the Multi-
Partite Monitoring Group/Committee, which primarily aimed at monitoring the compliance of the NPC
to the ECC conditions and stipulations and to address the social and environmental concerns of the
residents of Masinloc.
Local Government Unit (LGU) General Fund
LGU provides annual budget allocation for the monthly honoraria of the Bantay Dagat Volunteers,
Gasoline expenses, patrol boats with complete paraphernalia and other related expenses to be used
in the implementation of RA 8550 and in the monitoring and apprehending of illegal fishing activities.
8
20% Municipal Development Fund Municipal Development Council (MDC)
MDC provides annual budget allocation worth 7.5 M or two (2%) percent of the twenty (20%) for the
Coastal Resources Management Projects.
Institutional Sustainability
The integration of co-management arrangements and establishment of MPA networks enhances the
institutional support systems at the local (e.g., provincial) and national levels.
The institutionalization of environmental trust funds with counterpart from private conditional grants
has been incorporated into the marine conservation contracts. Enhanced participation and
engagement of local communities, as part of local and national benefit sharing of roles and
responsibilities would have been instituted. These policies helps in facilitating transparency,
accountability and participatory decision making as integrated within their management plans,
legislated policies and budgets.
Risks
The risks of rural impoverished fishing communities lie in the development of early stages of
management institutions and the social and economic instability of local communities.
The project assumes that the macroeconomic (e.g., energy sharing schemes of local vs. national) and
political conditions do not overcome the internal outcomes derived from the project. In order to buffer
against these risks the legislative reforms to be instituted in the policy agenda of the strategic action
plans on-site and for the region should incorporate these constraints in the expected outcomes.
Political and financial leveraging of commitments through the demonstration site and national
accountability of local and national government would add to the supporting structures to avoid the
unsustainable impacts of these risks. MPA networks and other coordinating bodies should minimize
transactional costs and provide avenues for conflict resolution concerns.

17. PROPOSED MANAGEMENT OF THE ACTIVITIES. (Details described in Annex VI)
The Marine Science Institute, specialized executing agency will be accountable to see to it that the
activities in the demonstration site are properly implemented. In this connection, the national focal
point will check the progress of the project by visiting the demonstration site once a month until the
project ends. The national focal point is also responsible to report the progress of the demonstration
site to the Project Coordinating Unit (PCU) and Regional Working Group on Coral Reef.
The appointed demonstration site manager is responsible to execute the activities in the work plan.
This is under the direction of the Coral Reef Management Council that is composed of the PAMB,
LGUs and DENR. The demonstration site manager is also responsible to report the over-all progress
and problems encountered in the project implementation.
As proposed, two marine sanctuaries will be added adjacent to the existing one. There will be a
separate committee in-charge per sanctuary. This will aid in effectively implementing the activities in
each sanctuary.
18. INFORMATION ON PROPOSED EXECUTING AGENCY (IES) (Information on the entity(ies)
that will execute activities including their legal status).
The Marine Science Institutes' threefold mandate of research, graduate education and development
of environmentally sound technologies have shown a track record of performance and accountability
in the last 3 decades of its existence. Aside from academic excellence, it has been recognized as a
center of excellence in ecosystem research and development. In coral reef research and
management, its programs in science-based participatory and community-based management have
been seen in the catalytic and facilitative role of the Philippine Coral Information Network and the
formulation of the Philippine Marine Sanctuary Strategy. The institute has regularly performed many
technical advisory roles in the national and international bodies in the marine sciences.

ANNEX I
SITE CHARATERISATION
1.1
Map of Masinloc, Zambales
1.2
Site Description
Masinloc, Zambales (Figure 1) is geographically located at 15.48-15.59 degrees latitude and 119.89-
119.97 degrees longitude. It consists of various reef types such as fringing (mainland and island),
patch reefs and atoll. The present area is approximately127 ha. It is biologically diverse having live
coral cover for all species (Table 1) inside the MPA of 33.24% and 29.06% outside the MPA (AFMA-
MFR Project 2003) with algal cover (Table 3) of 34% (inside) and 28% (outside). From 1991 to 2002,
change in live coral cover for all species increased from 25 to 27%. Fish species richness (Table 2) is
high showing 97 genera and 249 species based from fish visual census observations. Abundance is
moderate ranging from 1560-13680 per hectare. Thus, it indicates that the area is moderately over-
exploited.
Seagrass and mangrove in Masinloc Bay are the interacting ecosystems with coral reef. Marine
turtles such as Chelonia mydas and Eretmochely imbricata particularly in Subic and Masinloc are
considered to be endangered and threatened species (IUCN Red List Category; Ong 2002). Medium-
term management plans had indicated that the Subic-Bataan Protected Area and Oyon Bay, Masinloc
Protected Seascape shall be part of its priority areas for conservation (Ong 2002).
In August 1993, Masinloc was declared as protected landscape/Seascape under proclamation 231.
Ecotourism and their environment fund are potential sources that can be used to develop the site
considering the significant level of direct stakeholder involvement in management.
Destructive fishing such as bombing and poisoning is the major threat in the site followed by pollution
caused by sedimentation, heavy metals, organic pollutants and eutrophication. Coastal development
from dredging and tourism and natural disasters like storm, volcanic eruption and land subsidence,
coral bleaching and infestation of Crown-of-Thorns are also noted. Industrial and mariculture
development are the potential threat in the next coming years.
15
Social and economic drives of change in environmental sites has been considered as stress-pressure
particularly with the operation of the coal fired Power Plant in 1995. Population growth within the area
is 0.21% a total municipal resident population of 569,266. There is coastal zoning and institutional
framework for MPA in Subic-Bataan Protected Area which is around 80 km away but no functional
coastal management plan for Masinloc.
AREA
Oyon Bay, Masinloc lies between 119'52" to 119"58E longitude and 15"28"32" to 15"34"47"N latitude.
It is located in the northern part of Zambales and has an area of 7,568 hectares. The municipality
includes the island-barangay of San Salvador, located about 2.5 km away from the mainland. The
total coastline length is about 42.2 km (27.7 km on the mainland part of the municipality, 4.8 km in
northern Panglit and 9.7 km in San Salvador Island. The reef area of Masinloc Bay is 51%of the total
reef area (28.84 km2) of the whole municipality.
ENVIRONMENT
Meteorological
Masinloc, like the rest of Zambales province, falls under Type I climate, based on the modified
coronas classification of PAG-ASA. This climate is characterized by two pronounced seasons, dry
from November to May and wet during the rest of the year. Maximum rainfall is experienced during
the month of August with the presence of the southwest monsoon and occasional typhoons. The
coolest month of the year occurs during January with annual mean temperature of 26.6C while the
hottest occurs during May with the mean annual temperature of 28.3C (PAGASA).
Physical
The coastal waters of Masinloc are bounded on the east by a series of embayment and are exposed
to the South China Sea, sheltered only by a few islands. As a result, there is a strong gradient in
water properties (turbidity, nutrient distribution) across the shelf, which supports a variety of important
habitats. A persistent northward flow offshore is believed to contribute to the connectivity between
Masinloc and other ecosystems west of Luzon.
Geological
The demonstration site is located in the Zambales range which is about 220 km, long and 40 km wide.
The range consists of high peaks and rugged ridges notably Mt. Iba is approximately 1,606 mas and
Mt. Pinatubo which is 1,778 mas. Small coastal plains and loe rolling hills characterize the northern
portion of the area. The Zambales range is composed of mafic-ultramatic rocks commonly termed as
the Zambales Ultramatic Comples and is part of a complete ophiolite sequence consisting of
metamorphic peridotite, layered gabbro, diabase dike, swarms, chert and pelagic sediments known as
Aksitero Formation.
HABITATS
Coral Reef
Coral reefs are widespread except for Oyon Bay to Collat and Southeastern San Salvador Island.
Corals in the northern transect appeared healthy (54% hard coral cover) but were less so close to the
outfall of the power plant (14% hard coral cover and less). They were also somewhat depauperate of
reef fish (7-8 MT/sq km) (ICRMP, 2003).
The present environmental state has a high live coral cover for all species (29% inside and 33%
outside the MPA. In the last decade there was minimal change in the live coral cover in the area (from
25% in 1991 to 27% in 2002) (AFMA MFR Project, 2003). The algae cover was 34% inside and 28%
outside the MPA.
Coral reefs are critical habitats for marine life as they play an important role in the productivity of the
coastal ecosystem. In Masinloc, the coral reef areas serve as important nursery and spawning areas
for a variety of commercially important fishery species. They recycle and concentrate nutrients from
the near shore open areas/seas. They also protect the coastline from erosion by wave action.
16
A total of 271 reef fish and reef-associated species belonging to 35 families in San Salvador. The
number of coral reef fish was 79/249 (number of genera/number of species) with coral reef fish
density of 13 reef fishes per 114 ha. The general fish biomass estimates fall within the medium
category (i.e., within the range of 10-20 mT/km2) (Arceo et al 2003) from the classification estimate
established for the country (see Naņola et al., 2002)
Seagrass
The study noted that seagrass beds are dominated by the genera - Thalassia, Enhalus, and
Halophila. The seagrass abound in the mudflats and shallow areas along the coasts of Masinloc,
Palauig, Magalawa, San Salvador, San Miguel and Panglit islands. Patches of seagrass (Enhalus sp.)
were observed in the inner bay wast of San Slavador Island and south of the Poblacion. A total of
eight segrass species have been reported from the Oyon Bay-Bani Point area (EIA, 1994).
Seagrass beds are important coastal resources. Similar to mangroves and coral reefs, they are also
part of a critical habitat for marine life. Seagrass transplanting is one approach to its restoration and
has been tested in the area.
Mangroves
Masinloc has 261 hectares in good condition. The areas are dominated by mangrove species such
as Rhizphora apiculata, Avicennia alba and A. officinalis. Nipa and bakauan are located in small
patches. Mangroves have an important role as breeding area for marine organisms. The forests
provide food and shelter providing protection of the coastline against erosion. Regulation of or
prohibition of harvesting of mangrove is an important step in protecting the forests.
Marine Biodiversity
Masinloc, Zambales is biologically diverse. It has considerable number of Scleractinian coral species,
reef fishes and alga. Nearly 40% (24 genera) of the total recorded in the South China Sea region is
found in Masinloc. Live coral cover shows at least 10% increase over the decade (1999-2002). There
are 45 families of reef fishes identified in the area with 139 genera and 390 species recorded, which is
60% of the total recorded in the national reef fish visual census database. Coral reef fish density
range from 1560-13680 per hectare. Reef fishes remain to be considered over-exploited because of
the rampant illegal activities in the area. There are 59 genera of algae with 110 species observed. In
2002, the present algal cover inside the MPA is 34% and 28% outside the MPA (AFMA-MFR Project).
IUCN Red Listed endangered marine turtles Chelonia mydas and Erethmochelys imbricata have been
reported to nest in the sandy shores of Masinloc. In 1993, it has been nationally recognized to have a
managed resource protected area (IUCN Category). Masinloc, Zambales is recognized as priority
area for the marine conservation for cetaceans, whale sharks and turtles (Ong et al., 2002).
PRESENT USE
Mining
Masinloc is a town found on an area with huge deposits of chromite in its mountains. A mining
company, BCI-Coto in Masinloc is now operating a property used to export monthly an average of 1-
1.5 million pesos worth of chromite ore, mined from what is known to be the biggest deposit of
refractory ore in the world. Accounting of the bigger volume of shipping done here, as compared to
that handled at San Fernando, La Union, Masinloc was declared a port of entry
(www.zambales.gov.ph/about.html).
Status of the Fishery and Aquatic Resources
The municipality shares almost an equal market leadership position with Sta. Cruz in terms of number
of commercial and municipal fishing vessels operating in the area. Masinloc can be developed as a
fishing port or fish production and/or processing area. Fishing is the primary source of income for
about 29% of households in Masinloc. The inshore and near shore fisheries employ 1,750 fishermen.
There are 490 motorized fishing vessels, 255 non-motorized fishing vessels and 20 commercial
fishing vessels that employ at least 30 crew per fishing vessel. Fish production of tuna, skipjack,
roundscad, dolphin, Spanish mackerel and sharks accounted to 4,050 m tons in 1998 valued at
approximately P202.5 million. There are two (2) existing ice plants in the area with 10.0 tons
capacity.
17
Commercial/municipal fishing is the primary source of livelihood of 29% of household in Masinloc.
There are three (3) existing piers/wharves in the area (NAPOCOR, Benguet Corporation and Matalvis
Fish Port) which highlights the potential of the area as a port municipality.
The municipal waters of Masinloc has abundant marine species such as yellow fin (tuna), skipjack
(roundscud), squid, octopus, lapu-lapu, sea urchin, sea cucumber, Spanish mackerel, seaweed, and
other marine species that commands higher market values.
Transportation
The Masinloc Bay is near the international sea-lanes, with good deep seabed suitable for cargo ships
(at least 18 meters deep).
MANAGEMENT REGIME
Masinloc has a 127 has Marine Sanctuary Project (San Salvador Island). In 1988, the LGU in
collaboration with an NGO (Haribon Foundation Inc.) and the community established a Marine
Sanctuary/Marine Reservation in San Salvador, covering an area of 127.5 hectares or 1.69% of the
total 7560 hectares Oyon Bay, Masinloc. A percentage of non-contiguous areas were declared as
marine reservation where limited fishing was allowed. The establishment of a sanctuary and
reservation were crucial for regulating the fishing industry in Masinloc. These protected areas
guaranteed the sustained replenishment and regeneration of the marine resources that were in
danger of being over exploited past sustainable levels.
Institutions involved in environment and natural resources management in general, and coastal
management and marine biodiversity conservation in particular include national government agencies
(NGAs), local government units (LGUs) and non-governmental organizations (NGOs). They operate
from the national down to the village levels. Aside from the Philippine Council for Sustainable
Development (PCSD), the most prominent agencies at the national level are the DA, the DENR, and
the Philippine National Police (PNP)-Maritime. For the LGUs, the relevant units include the offices
handling functions related to planning, agriculture and the environment. NGOs/POs are now playing
active roles in Coastal Resources Management (CRM). Among these key NGOs/POs are Samahang
Pangkaunlaran ng San Salvador and the Nagkakaisang Mamamayan ng Mangingisda sa Bani.
Institutional arrangements in Masinloc regarding coastal resources management (that covers coral
reef management and marine bio-diversity conservation) are still labelled as `loose'. There are no
clearly defined roles and responsibilities. Although the agencies tend to coordinate their efforts, the
coordination activities are largely informal. In some ways, the relationships that are being established
are more inter-personal, rather than institutional.

ANNEX IV
MONITORING AND EVALUATION PLAN FOR MASINLOC, ZAMBALES
1.
Collecting and reporting data on performance indicators
Environmental Indicators
Biophysical monitoring activities inside and outside (adjacent) the three community-based marine
sanctuaries will be conducted annually, from the start to the end of the project. The data collected will
be analyzed and uploaded to the established database, Marine Information Database Archive System
(MIDAS) of the Marine Science Institute. A participatory MPA monitoring will be undertaken using the
fish visual census with benthos assessment using Uychiaoco et al (2001) methods.
Socio-economic Indicators
Initial assessment (scanning and feasibility studies) of the potential livelihood options that can be
conducted will be undertaken. Consultation meetings, training and workshops will also be done with
prioritized selection of qualified community stewards of the community-based marine sanctuaries.
Team building efforts for various members of the marine sanctuary management team will also be
programmed. Integration of the fisheries and socio-economic information will utilize FISH BE
(Licuanan et al. 2004).
Process Indicators
Impact assessment of project activities such as in demonstrating sustainable community-based
marine sanctuaries network, capacity building, and supplemental livelihood linked to the stewardship
of the marine sanctuaries and information and education campaign (IEC) will be evaluated. Aside
from using the MPA rating system (CCEF 2004), this will be modified with governance indicators
(EcoGov 2 in prep) to gauge transparency, accountability and participatory decision-making in the
processes outlined earlier.
The demonstration site manager is tasked to submit progress reports including financial reports semi-
annually to the donor under the terms of agreement. This is a prerequisite for the processing and
release of the next quarter budget request. The progress of the project implementation will also be
assessed by the focal point.

Evaluation in the end of project
The National Coral Reef committee and other related groups such as the Philippine Marine Sanctuary
support group network and the Philippine Coral Reef information network will include this as part of
the national coral reef strategy. The design of the M&E forms will follow similar protocols as in
Uychiaoco et al (2001) for the biophysical concerns and also adopt some of the World Commission on
Protected Areas (2001) protocols for management effectiveness, and the Philippine Marine Sanctuary
report card system that has adopted the CCEF MPA rating system.
3.
Description of how monitoring and evaluation activities will involve participants and
stakeholders
Participant involved in the training including stakeholders will be engaged in the monitoring and
evaluation of three community-based marine sanctuaries, coral rehabilitation and mangrove
rehabilitation. As mentioned earlier an initial technical working group will be organized to establish
criteria that will incorporate equitable representation of the major stakeholders together with their level
of commitment, technical acumen and appropriate match with their respective tasks and
responsibilities for the particular activities. A performance monitoring plans of various groups will
likewise be formulated in the 1st quarter of mobilization.
26
4.
Resources that will be allocated to monitoring and evaluation
Six thousand (US $) is allocated for the ecological monitoring for the duration of the project, which
includes consultation fees and other expenses related to monitoring. One thousand (US $) for the
mid-term review, 2500 (US $) for the evaluation of the progress by the management board and
another 2500 (US $) for the evaluation at the end of the project.
5.
How will monitoring and evaluation results be used in management?
An initial feedback of the results will be made before the end of each trip and a draft report will be
given not more than two months after data collection. After formal acceptance by the local community
and LGU, a formal presentation will be made no later than a month after formal acceptance. Two
midyear-sharing summits will b facilitated for an all stakeholders forum.
