All key project partners – DENR, PAMB, CCC and LGUs have recommended that the approved management plan will serve as the Project’s over-all planning reference. As such, all activities and programs that maybe implemented under the Project should complement and/or supplement the plan. Recommendation: The Project team supports this same view and will adopt the Comprehensive UMRBPL Plan as its over-all reference plan. Issues and Concerns

The Project’s TOR does not specify the extent of the TA’s support to LGUs to make their CLUPs climate resilient. It is anticipated that the CLUPs of the five UMRBPL LGUs would have been completed and approved prior to the completion of the Project’s main CCA/GHG/DRRM-related studies. Recommendation: The Project team shall provide technical inputs and assistance to enhance the approved CLUPs of 5 UMRBPL LGUs and support the formulation of their local green growth strategy in their CDP. Issues and Concerns

Recommendation: The ‘green growth’ road map and eco-town framework be applied at the municipal level even as project implementation would initiate pilot activities in the 9 priority barangays within the UMRBPL Issues and Concerns

During the Project team’s interaction with the UMRBPL LGUs, the role of LLDA was raised since UMRBPL falls within the jurisdiction of the LLDA and DPWH in the context of flood control projects Recommendation: The Project team sees these agencies as potential partners and will try to coordinate with them throughout the course of the Project’s implementation Issues and Concerns
