1. Can an attendee to a meeting object to a decision made during the meeting more than a year after the meeting got adjourned?

2. Is a change in officers considered a change in the Board membership?

3. Are organizational matters under the scope of PRCs mandate?

4. Is stopping PIEP from serving the needs of it's members the right thing to do?

Please answer YES or NO.

Explanations are NOT NEEDED!

I am just asking to find out how other EnPs here answer these questions.

Because the answer to these questions are very relevant to our profession.

You can think anything. I don't really care 🙂.

Enjoy 🍺 this month of October!

Greetings. We hope to embark on a series of future posts/exchanges in these e-groups to cover the following inter-related planniing subjects:

1)      land reclamation as both a bane and a boon;

2)      possible causes of landside flashflooding (especially at coastal communities);

3)      initial measures to possibly address food security concerns;

4)      differentiating developmental (green) and redevelopmental (brown and gray) programs and projects;

5)      institutionalizing congestion controls;

6)      increasing land use efficiency; and

7)      revisiting and relearning from our past plans and programs e.g. the 1970s MMETROPLAN.

To roll out these e-group discussions much earlier, all contributions from the member-EnPs are welcome e.g. articles, papers, links, musings, etc. Much thanks. Regards to everyone.

IS LAND RECLAMATION A BANE OR A BOON?

1)  land reclamation is BOTH a bane and a boon (with disadvantages and advantages) and if not planned/managed properly, it easily tends to become much more of a bane (disadvantageous) to its setting/host community, viz:

A)   among the readily identifiable disadvantages are:

i)      the destruction of the sources of armor rocks and fill materials;

ii)     damage to infrastructure during the period of reclamation (chiefly to the roads if material sources are at landside);

iii)   destruction of fisheries and coral areas (if thriving);

iv)   congestion at the host coastal community (especially during the implementation period); and

v)    social issues, etc.; and

B)   among the generally perceived advantages are:

i)      land reclamation may partially serve to offset the runaway agricultural land conversion (a food security issue, and may even be considered a possibly positive development if the intended land reclamation site is not a productive fishing ground/coral area i.e. heavily polluted coastal waters);

ii)     land reclamation may partially serve to offset very low land use efficiency along coastal areas as its high density, high-intensity development characteristics may over time, directly result in attaining higher land use efficiencies at its counterpart coastal areas;

iii)   land reclamation creates a new development potential for portions of coastal municipal water areas (MWAs);  

iv)   potentially perpetual open spaces;

v)    potential for providing some form of coastal protection;

vi)   general employment generation;

vii)  opportunity of generating funds for the potential redevelopment at coastal areas and at inland areas;  

viii) increase in the LGU land area (including the converted municipal water areas/MWAs); and

ix)   creation of a new tax base for the LGU.

  

2)  the concept of sustainable land reclamation must always strive to attain that delicate balance between conservation and development.

WHICH COULD BE WORSE (FOR SUSTAINABILITY AND FOOD SECURITY CONCERNS)? LAND RECLAMATION OR LAND CONVERSION?

 

1)    The runaway conversion of productive agricultural land (please refer to future posts/articles at the PEPtalk chatgroup on Facebook) purposely made to lie fallow to serve the ends of speculators only to later host low-efficiency land uses i.e. we all know of instances of low-density land developments that have arisen out of the conversion of several thousand hectares (has.) of erstwhile productive agricultural land, including viable grazing land; OR

 

2)    land reclamation at heavily polluted coastal waters, where the largest reclaimed island in the Philippines may possibly average only two hundred hectares (200.0 has.) over heavily polluted municipal waters. 

 

Some Notes:

a)    Land reclamation has limits in surface area due to costs arising from the depth of the seafloor, amount of unsuitable organic materials needing to be removed or reused, containment design, the sources/conveyance of armor rocks and fill materials (if so required), fill methodology, surface drainage, settlement and related concerns.

b)    Land reclamation may not be the proximate cause of land subsidence (often attributed to excessive groundwater extraction), saltwater intrusion nor of sea level rise.

c)    Landside flashflooding (especially at coastal communities) often occur when storm runoff originates from higher landside elevations and brought to lower landside elevations/coastal areas at a very fast rate (please refer to future posts/articles at the PEPtalk chatgroup on Facebook).

 

 

3)    Who is looking at the massive land reclamation occurring continuously at our inland waterways, particularly at the mandated legal easement (MLE) areas that have been fenced in and titled by private landowners? The DPWH? The DILG through its LGUs? Presumably, the total area of these potentially illegal inland waterway MLE reclamations now total in the thousands of square kilometers (sqkm) and has been largely contributory to flooding at coastal/low-lying areas nationwide.

 

4)    All of the foregoing could probably be addressed in the crafting of the proposed National Land-Water-Air-Subsurface Use Act (NLWASUA). A bill introduced to the 18th Congress may be read/downloaded at https://hrep-website.s3.ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com/legisdocs/basic_18/HB02892.pdf. Thanks.

WHICH COULD BE WORSE (FOR SUSTAINABILITY AND FOOD SECURITY CONCERNS)? LAND RECLAMATION OR LAND CONVERSION?

5) Assuming that there could be a 30:70 ratio between land mass and its territorial waters in the Philippines (PH), and since the surface area of PH land is much smaller than its territorial waters, shouldn’t there be greater focus on conserving (or sustainably developing) land, especially agriculturally-productive land purposely made to lie fallow i.e. if there is to be a moratorium, it must be on land conversion first, and reclamation (i.e. only at suitable coastal waters) could come in second.
Still the runaway conversion of the mandated legal easements (MLEs) along inland waterways (and its possible recovery and remediation) should happen now and at all costs, as the damage these have caused to both the natural and built environments is much greater. Thanks again.

Hi Boie,

 

We live an imperfect world. Each option has its pros and cons. There is no perfect solution.  I would rather step backward before considering the mode of getting large tracts of land by looking at the objective. Is the acquisition of large tract of land either from private and public sources for speculation or in developers euphemism “land banking” , is it to stimulate gentrification or urban renewal, or is it develop a compact city or is it just for an integrated development of limited but compatible land uses or is it just to provide some vehicle for egoistic leaders to build a monument for himself that will last longer than the pyramids--? Then what are the resources available not just on the existing land or coastal land but also on the capabilities of the proponent ? Most reclamation projects are accompanied with glitzy models but what is the capacity of the developer ? Will the models just remained as models once the developer got his profit? What is the market or the demand?

 

We talk of Singapore but the Philippines is not Singapore. Singapore give some ideas but the ideas that must be evaluated in the context of the Philippines economic, social and cultural conditions. To put a law modelled or worst copied from Singapore is a sure recipe for disaster.

 

One of the objections I raised on the format of the recently concluded Coastal Reclamation Discussion is the focus on coastal reclamation. If the objective and the alternatives are not analysed first then we have the typical anti-developmental attitude.

 

Should be talk of reclamation vs conversion ? Reclamation is anchored on “recent”. To a person with Alzheimer recent is a few minutes back,  to a person with low foresight it could be a few days back, to a planner it could be 5 to 10 years or even 30 years, to a geologist it could be a million years (one of the very recent geologic event and that is 10,000 years ago  the earth sea level rose by approximately 50 meters submerging the land bridges connecting the Philippines to Asian mainland), to an astronomer it could be billion years (one galactic year is 364 million years the time it takes our solar system to complete one revolution around our galaxy

Agriculture needs land for production, and ideally, it is agricultural land or cleared forest land, to conserve fertility. Reclaimed land is not fertile, and takes at least 7 years to make it stable, even for construction. The best strategy is agricultural land conservation for food security. Urbanization should be built on non-arable slopes, not on flat lands that could host food production.

Thanks for the points of views raised. To my simple ordinary citizen map dapat masusing pag-aralan if reclamation or land conversion are pasado sa triple bottom line criteria for sustainable development at kung pasado sa climate change and disaster risk ang project. Finally, since democracy tayo sana i-subject to public consent vote sa mga citizens ng affected LGUs. Pagpumasa sa lahat ng criteria at approved technically, socially and ecologically dapat isabatas para may mga responsible leaders who can vouch for the project. Which will imply continuous monitoring and evaluation over time and transparent regular reports. Sa reclaimed land sana may reasonable space for social housing communities at open parks and green and blue spaces. Salamucho and Godbless. Build Better Berde at Bughaw!

PIEP as the legitimate APO for Environmental Planning was not granted CPD ACCREDITATION by the CPD Council for Environmental Planning due to the lack of a NON EXISTENT DOCUMENT. What do you call that demand for a non existent document?

If indeed that Board is legitimate, please share here the business permit and SEC GIS that they are using. Let us all be professional here!

Thank You for Your comment, Patrick. 

As I have explained the other night, the matter You raised is now for the Court to decide. 

A civil complaint (covering the intra-corporate dispute at the PIEP) has already been lodged with the RTC a month ago. The 2020-21 (and perhaps even some members of the 2022) PIEP Boards of Trustees (BoTs, as there are 2 at the moment) will have sufficient time to explain to the Court what happened (and what they did) in November 2021. Depending on the legal arguments, the Court may also elect to ascertain and possibly assign liabilities for certain acts, but that is of course for the Court to decide.

The complaint seeks a TRO and possibly a later injunction against certain parties. Since the matter is in Court, let us keep our thoughts on the matter to ourselves and let the Court do its job. Thank You.

Regards to everyone, AAlli

Good pm Boie and Patrick,

 

I might have been very busy that I am completely in the dark as to what happened in November 2021 or to the events leading and the consequences of the event or events in November 2021. The problem must be very serious that it is going to the courts.

 

For one I don’t want to get involved and perhaps it is to my interest and may be some members interest to know what happened so we could steer clear from getting involved.

 

Just a backgrounder. No comment please as to who is right or wrong.

 

Ely

Hi Boie and Patrick,

 

If there is already a complaint before the court, the complaint is a public document. May be it is easier to circulate the complaint for the interest of the members. Normally the defendants are allowed to answer within 30 days after receiving the court summons with the complaints. If the dependants wanted to circulate their answer that will be greatly appreciated.

 

After receiving  the contents of the complaints and the answer, I don’t think  additional information will be of interest for us to steer clear of the controversy until the court decides. Some members may be aware of the issues from conversations or  more appropriately in legal context heresies. Heresies will be detrimental to our profession. We are all Environmental Planners and colleagues of the same profession.

 

Whoever wins in the court case, it is our profession who will be the loser.

 

Ely

You are right Sir Ely Ouano.

But then again, filing a court case against the members of the PIEP Board AND at the same time promoting attendance to a convention organized by the board minority over the other organized by the board majority speaks volumes.

This is the clear message here - the court case is just an obstacle thrown to derail PIEP as The APO for Environmental Planning.

The complainant is biased towards the minority members of the PIEP Board.

Enough said!

Thank You Sir Ely and Patrick.

To be clear, I stand as the lone complainant in that civil complaint against the 2020-21 PIEP Board of Trustees (BoT), and it is a deadly serious matter that took months of legal research before the actual filing was done. I am also not at liberty to share the complaint unless greenlighted by my lawyer/s.

The matter of promoting the PIEP NatCon with the DHSUD as Co-Convenor by all concerned EnPs more or less helps even up the massive multi-platform promotions for the other NatCon and gives everyone (all EnPs) a choice of which NatCon to attend (or even to attend both). There is no bias there, just making the choices clear for all EnPs of all hues and persuasions.

As I said on several occasions already on 2 platforms (to You specifically, Patrick), let us leave this matter to the Court (as there is already a case filed), and let us leave our thoughts and opinions to ourselves. To do otherwise may invite other potential legal consequences. Thank You once again.

Good pm Boie,

 

Thanks for the information. If I got it right we will  have two national conventions  and within those two national conventions we will have an election of the national officers resulting to two sets of national officers.

 

If your lawyers gives you the greenlight , a copy of the complaint is highly appreciated. I also hope the answer from the defendant will be also made available to us,==== the spectator members.

Thank You, Sir Ely. Yes, that is likewise my impression in the interim, and it is up to the Court to decide on the fate of those 2 sets of activities. The requested reliefs i.e. TRO or injunction may later help determine which activity set prevails. That is all that we can share. Thank You once again. Regards to everyone. AAlli

I hope the case does not go all the way to the supreme court and like most civil cases ( I know of one that took 70 years to resolve from the Court of first Instance--- to the Supreme Court) may take a long time . In the mean time----what will the professional members do? Just wait , watch and  cheer both parties in the  Filipino tradition of the cockfight---  to goad the parties to keep  fighting on and on—pouring amor propio  and then amor tribo into the fight –it is the pride of the family and the group to fight on, long after the fogs of history has muddled or made the real issues irrelevant.

 

Now I see the wisdom of the Cebu Institute of Technology Alumni association mother constitution. It required the organizations to split once the membership reaches 50 members. From the oral history I gathered the provision is even redundant as the chapters tend to split long before the maximum membership of 50 is reached.

 

Is this a reflection of things to come with our nation?  We are licensed professionals, with graduate and post graduate degrees, we are planners who looks takes long term views and perspective, we have taken oaths to serve society, we are intellectuals, we are the elite.  How did things come into this state? Should there have been an internal review or mediation especially from neutral parties within PIEP---appoint mediators acceptable to both parties (Trump and the DOJ were able to find one in spite of their animosity  )? Administrative review –PRC, SEC? Looking at the perspective of current legal procedures used in most countries ( may be not for the Philippines),  is to exhaust all mediation channels and administrative review before the courts of law.

 

(Humpty dumpty) PIEP sat on the wall.( Humpty dumpty) PIEP had a big fall, All the King’s men could not make  (Humpty dumpty) PIEP whole. PIEP is broken.

 

I don’t know the background and I will have nothing to do with PIEP or any of the  PIEPs  the winners and the losers will put up.

 

This is not a message interfering with the court case or even giving any hint of siding with one group or another. This is my farewell message to my fellow EnPs.

 

Good bye

 

Ely

Dear All,
Me, too - I just don't want to get involved. It is just my sincere request that whoever is at the helm of PIEP, at present, allow PRC to renew my PRC EnP card. I applied and PAID the renewal in 2021, and still not issued to date.
I am already 83 years old and hardly practicing the profession, but am just proud to be holding a valid (unexpired) EnP PRC card.

Thank You for Your comments, Sir Ely.

The suggestion in Your 2nd paragraph is most well-received and that may most certainly find its way into the APO bill we are now re-crafting. The APOs with their current sizes have indeed spawned many new situations (or problems depending on one's viewpoint) not foreseen almost half a century ago when the PRC was created.

Re Your third paragraph, mediation was undertaken by neutral parties possibly over the period January through September 2022, to no avail i.e. one side was reportedly viewed to be less than cooperative. In any event, the report on the mediation process has been in PRC's hands for about 2 months now (if our information is correct) and we hope they act on it as it is a basis for an administrative investigation by the PRC into PIEP affairs (not part of the civil case).

Thank You. Regards to everyone. AAlli
