In terms of cost, the economic development sector has the highest at 46 percent or Php 7.6 B, followed by the infrastructure sector at 42 percent or Php 6.9 B, and the social sector having at least 10 percent or Php 1.7 B. Also included are the Special Preparation of CAR into Autonomous Region (SPCAR) and PAMANA amounting to Php 17 M and Php 261.8 M, respectively. In terms of fund source, Php 12.06 B or 73 percent is locally funded while Php 4.5 B or 27 percent is foreign assisted. These foreign-assisted projects are: Second Cordillera Highland Agricultural Resource Management Project (CHARMP2), Agrarian Reform Infrastructure Support Project Phase III, Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program (4Ps), Philippine Response to Indigenous People’s (IP) and Muslim Education (PRIME), Kapit-Bisig Laban sa Kahirapan- Comprehensive and Integrated Delivery of Social Services(Kalahi-CIDSS), Cordillera-wide Strengthening of Local Health System for Effective and Efficient Delivery of Maternal and Child Health Services and Rural Micro Enterprise Promotion Programme (RuMEPP).

II. Project Implementation Status The table below shows that the overall status of implementation is 45.47 percent, an increase of merely 0.8 percent from the previous quarter. However, this is a better performance compared to the same period last year of 32.8 percent which is attributed to the improved performance of the three (3) sectors. Note however that it was only in the year-end 2012 report that the RPMC decided to include SPCAR and PAMANA. (Please refer to Annex A for the detailed status of the 127 projects.)

2nd Qtr 2012

2nd Qtr 2013

For this reporting period, three (3) out of the five (5) sectors/ program reached and even slightly exceeded the 50 percent target and considering that PAMANA projects had increased from 6.56 percent to 13.64 percent. The Infrastructure Sector and PAMANA projects were not able to contribute significantly since most of the CY 2013 funded projects are still in the pre-implementation stage and some ongoing projects incurred negative slippages.

3

The overall performance of 45.47 percent translates to 25 projects completed, four (4) are ahead of schedule, 36 are on track, 28 are in the pre-implementation stage, 35 are behind schedule and two (2) have been terminated. Of the 35 projects reported behind schedule, 17 projects posted negative slippages less than 10 percent, six (6) projects have slippages less than 15 percent and nine (9) projects posted slippages more than 15 percent. The 35 projects having backlog have significant effect on the overall performance since the aggregate cost is Php 9.205 B or 55.48 percent of the CAR total cost. While the 25 completed projects has little bearing as the aggregate cost is only Php 937.21 M or 5.65 percent of the CAR total.

The termination of two (2) projects was due to unaddressed bloated negative slippage. Contractors were instructed to come up with catch-up plans to put the projects on track. CHARMP 2 which had a negative 9.53 percent slippage during the previous quarter is now on track with negative 1 percent slippage. The DepEd’s Philippine Response to Indigenous and Muslim Education (PRIME) posted negative 31 percent slippage. According to DepEd, they prioritized trainings for the implementation of the project and will retarget to put the project on track. The project backlogs are attributed to the following reasons: inclement weather, road right of way (ROW) and peace and order issues, lack of equipment/ manpower, conflict with planting season, no qualified bidders and award suspension due to recent election which affected the infrastructure, irrigation and school building projects while 2013 PAMANA projects are mostly in the pre-implementation stage.

Social Sector The Social Sector projects, amounting to Php 1.5 B, posted slightly above 50 percent. The sector is dominated by DSWD’s Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program (4Ps), DepEd’s School Building Program composed of Basic Education Facilities (BEF) and DPWH implemented Regular School Building Program. The other projects are: DOH’s Health Facilities Enhancement Program (HFEP), water system projects and Cordillera-wide Strengthening of Local Health System for Effective and Efficient Delivery of Maternal and Child Health Services and DSWD’s Kapit-Bisig Laban sa Kahirapan- Comprehensive and Integrated Delivery of Social Services (Kalahi-CIDSS). The DepEd’s BEF has three sub-components, namely: Toilet, Repair and Gabaldon (TRG), School Furniture Program (SFP) and Red and Black School Building Program. Economic Sector The Economic Sector posted 59.89 percent. DA’s banner program Second Cordillera Highland Agricultural Resource Management Project (CHARMP2) picked up and now on-track with 68.41 percent compared to last quarter of 55.67 percent. Other projects under the Economic Sector are the following: NIA’s Irrigation Projects; DAR’s Agrarian Reform Infrastructure Support Project Phase III (ARISP III); DENR’s National Greening Program; DA’s Farm-to-Market Roads and Agri-Pinoy Program; DTI’s One Town One Product (OTOP), Rural Micro Enterprise Promotion Programme (RuMEPP) and Shared Service Facilities Project (SSF); and DOST’s Small Enterprise Technology Upgrading Program (SETUP) Core and Non-Core Funded Projects. Infrastructure Sector While most of the sectors progressed, the Infrastructure Sector on the other hand had a low accomplishment of 29.41 percent. Most of the CY 2013 large scale projects are still in the pre-implementation stage and some incurred backlogs due to inclement weather and road ROW problem. Four (4) projects are ahead of schedule (Benguet Roads and Kabugao, Apayao-Solsona, llocos Norte, 2nd District) due to good weather condition, better accessibility and

rendered overtime work. The Sector is composed of the Regular Infrastructure Projects with 42 major road projects amounting to Php 5.7 B and the Convergence Program on Enhancing Tourism Access Program (Tourism Road Projects) with 19 projects amounting to Php 1.2 B. Special Projects The SPCAR and PAMANA are national and regional priority projects. The RDC administered SPCAR projects posted 55.33 percent. While the OPAPP (Office of the Presidential Adviser on Peace Process) funded and DILG administered PAMANA projects garnered 13.64 percent from first quarter’s 6.56 percent. The low performance of PAMANA is attributed to the CY 2013 projects that are mostly in the pre-implementation stage.

V. SPECIAL PROJECTS

The Cordillera region has two special programs being implemented to push autonomy and peace development. These are the PAMANA (PAyapa at MAsaganang PamayaNAn) and the Social Preparation of CAR into Autonomous Region. (Please refer to Annex D for the detailed report on Special Projects)

1. PAMANA (PAyapa at MAsaganang PamayaNAn), Php 261.8 M PAMANA (PAyapa at MAsaganang PamayaNAn) is the national government's program and framework for peace and development. It is implemented in areas affected by conflict and communities covered by existing peace agreements. The program aims to contribute to lasting peace by achieving the following objectives: (a) Reduce poverty and vulnerability in conflict-affected areas; (b) Improve governance; and (c) Empower communities and strengthen their capacities to address issues of conflict and peace through activities that promote social cohesion. For CAR, areas selected are barangays covered by the 2011 Government of the Philippines (GPH)-Cordillera Bodong Administration (CBA)-Cordillera People’s Liberation Army (CPLA) Closure Agreement. All CAR provinces are covered by PAMANA and the provinces/municipalities shall be the implementing partners of DILG and OPAPP.

For this year, there are 36 projects with a total cost of PhP 261.8 M. As of June 2013, the overall accomplishment is 13.64 percent. Six (6) projects have been completed, 12 are ongoing, and the rest are still at the pre-implementation/mobilization stage.

2. Social Preparation of CAR into Autonomous Region (SPCAR), Php 17.53 M

In support for the autonomy and development agenda of CAR, the Office of the President and Congress granted the RDC-CAR the fund for the Social Preparation Program (Special Autonomy Fund). Since the start of its implementation in 2007 until 2012, the program has received PhP 78 M of funding support. As of March 2013, 72 projects or 77 percent of the 94 projects have been completed, 15 projects or 16 percent are ongoing, five (5) projects have yet to start implementation, and two (2) have been terminated. For the second quarter, SPCAR posted an accomplishment rate of 55.33 percent. Under the Information and Education Communication (IEC) component, an IEC activity was conducted in Mountain Province, particularly in the municipalities of Tadian, Natonin and Sabangan. There were also two (2) multi-sector IECs conducted, one (1) for the CBA and another for the Benguet Provincial Councilors’ League. For the Pulse Survey Phase II, pulse surveys were conducted in Baguio City and all CAR provinces except for Abra, and pulse survey assessments were done in Ifugao and Apayao. Under the Capability-Building component, three projects continued to be implemented, namely, (1) Declaration of Principles for Environmental Governance (UP), (2) CIPC Banner Program: Preservation of Cordillera Culture and Heritage Program (NCIP), and (3) Revitalizing the BLISTT (NEDA). Two projects were implemented in June: Disaster Preparedness and Rescue Operations Training (PRO-COR) and Upland Agriculture Resiliency to Climate Change (DA).

Fund Source: GOP CY 2012: Project Cost: Php58.827 M (Contract Cost: Php 49.574 M) CY 2013: Project Cost: Php 173.924 M

Location/Area Coverage: Pudtol and Kabugao, Apayao Description:

The road is a major component of the Cordillera Roads Improvement Project (CRIP) being the northern tip of the regional backbone. The 78.75 km road stretch directly links the capital town Kabugao to Luna, the seat of provincial government and business growth center.

The road is one of the Apayao national roads recently upgraded from secondary to arterial road classification by Sec. Rogelio L. Singson through DPWH Memorandum dated November 2, 2011 by. This memorandum was a result of the RDC-CAR dialogue with Sec. Singson held at the DPWH-CAR office on August 5, 2011. The road starts at junction Lenneng along the Kabugao-Conner-Abbut Road and goes northeast traversing municipalities of Kabugao, Pudtol and Luna and ending at Junction Luna in Abulug, Cagayan along the Pan-Philippine Highway or Maharlika Highway. The Pan-Philippine Highway connects Laoag, Ilocos Norte and Tuguegarao, Cagayan. The Kabugao side (12.32 km) traverses a rugged mountainous terrain, then goes down to the Paco Valley. The road will also traverse the Mataguisi Valley in Pudtol. The valleys have vast potential for agricultural production. The bridges across Apayao River (Bubulayan Bridge) and its tributaries Maton and Nagan Rivers have been completed. The construction of two (2) other major bridges, Malilibag Bridge (48.8 lm) and Paco Bridge (36 lm) are programmed for CY 2014 to finally complete the road link.

The road is a major lateral road of the Cordillera Roads Improvement Project (CRIP). It connects Apayao Province to Ilocos Region. It traverses the municipalities of Kabugao and Calanasan in Apayao and turns west to Solsona in Ilocos Norte.

The road is among the Apayao national roads upgraded from secondary to arterial road classification by Sec. Rogelio L. Singson through DPWH Memorandum dated November 2, 2011. This memorandum was a result of the RDC-CAR dialogue with Secretary Singson held at the DPWH-CAR office on August 5, 2011. The 63.543 km road stretch is an Apayao segment of the San Nicolas-Solsona – Kabugao – Conner - Abbut Lateral Road and provides direct access to Laoag International Airport. The road starts in Junction Cabetian, Poblacion, Kabugao and ends in Solsona (Apayao-Ilocos Norte Boundary). Reckoning from Kabugao going northwest to Calanasan, road opening and widening of 36 km is already being undertaken. For the next programming period, more than 15.7 km is for opening (Kabugao, 5 km & Calanasan, 21.151 km). Along the Kabugao section (37 km), seven (7) major bridges are to be constructed with a total length of 445 lm crossing several tributaries of the Apayao River. Among the longest are across Sicapo River (120 lm) and Madduang River (80 lm). Towards the boundary along the Calanasan section (26.543 km), four (4) bridges with a total length of 120 lm are for programming. At the Ilocos Norte side (80 km), concrete paving is being completed up to the regional boundary. As of March 2013, more than 70 km have been paved.

Current Implementation Issues and/or Problems Encountered (if any):

A suspension order was issued on July 1, 2012; when the contractor failed to mobilize due to massive slides and road cuts along the 21 km section leading to the project site. After approval, the Php 2.38 M project savings was used for the removal of slides and restoration of road cuts. Work resumed on Sept. 30, 2012. However, the project is experiencing undue delay due to inclement weather causing the two (2) rivers before the project site to swell which hampers delivery of construction materials and fuel.

Actions Taken/ Recommendations:

Third warning for possible contract rescission was issued due to negative slippage beyond 15 percent. The contractor was instructed to mobilize additional equipment and manpower and render overtime. Considering that the project was earlier suspended for three (3) months, the contractor also applied for extension. The time extension is now on process. A variation order was also submitted for DPWH-CO approval on the road widening section from solid rock to common earth.

Total Project Cost: Php 888.889 M

Location/Area Coverage: 6 provinces, 7 congressional Districts, 2 cities, 75 municipalities, 1,070 municipalities

Description:

The Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program is a rights based program that focuses on human capital investment through the provision of health and education grants to eligible poor households. It is one of the poverty reduction strategies of the national government to enable poor households to meet certain human development goals aimed at breaking the intergenerational cycle of poverty. Further, it is also aimed at targeting five out of the eight Millennium Development Goals of the United Nations:

1. Reduce poverty and hunger

2. Achieve universal primary education

3. Promote gender and equality

4. Reduce child mortality

5. Improve maternal health

Pantawid Pamilya is the government’s version of the Conditional Cash Transfer (CCT) that started in Latin America and African countries. This has been proven successful as a poverty reduction and social development measure (World Bank, 2009) and was copied and modified to suit Philippine culture and needs. In the Philippines, Pantawid Pamilya was piloted late 2007 covering 4,589 households in four municipalities from regions CARAGA, Region X and the National Capital Region (NCR). By the end 2012, it aims to target 3.1 million households nationwide. The program follows the following criteria for the selection process. Eligible households for Pantawid Pamilya must be:

1. Residents of the poorest municipalities based on the 2003 Small Area Estimates (SAE) of the National Statistics and coordination Board (NSCB)

2. Households whose economic condition is equal to or below the provincial poverty threshold. 3. Households that have children who are 0-14 year of age and/or have a pregnant household

member during the time of assessment (6-14 year old children must be in school)

Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program (4Ps)


4. Household who agree to meet the conditions specified in the program.

Identified poor households are selected to be potential beneficiaries of the program only if they pass the Eligibility Check Routine (ECR), which is a system that determines the socio-economic category of households in consideration of the criteria set by the program. Households who pass the ECR process become official Pantawid members only after they have undergone the processes required of the Community Assembly, which serves as the venue for validation and registration to the program. The program offers the following health and education cash grants to beneficiary-households who have complied with the set conditions of the program:

1) 500 pesos a month per household, or 6,000 pesos a year, for the following health

conditions that apply to the household:

a. Pregnant members of the household shall avail of pre-natal care; childbirth shall be

attended by skilled/trained health professionals; and mothers shall avail of post-

natal care thereafter.

b. Children between 0-5 years old shall avail of regular preventive health check-ups

and receive immunizations, such as BCG, DPT-OPV, anti-measles and hepatitis

vaccines. (For children below 2 years of age, they are require to go for check-up

once a month, while children aged 2-5 are required to go for check-up once in two

months.)

c. Children between 6-14 years old enrolled in Elementary shall receive de-worming pills

twice a year (scheduled every five months, or every January and July of the elementary

school year).

d. Parents shall attend a Family Development Session (FDS) once a month

2. 300 pesos a month per child, or 3,000 pesos a year (10 months, exclusive of vacation

months: April-May) per child, maximum of three children per household for the

following conditions:

a. Children between 3-5 years old shall attend daycare/pre-school classes and must

meet 85% attendance per month

b. Children between 6-14 years old must be enrolled in school and must meet 85%

attendance rate month

As of 28 June 2013, the region has registered 56,443 active households which translate to 80% of the 70,577 target beneficiaries from Set 1 to Set 6. The variance of 14,134 or 20% shows the number of households with Non-RCA (Registered, Clean and Active) due to the households with duplicate entry, inclusion error, GRS fraud and GRS waived.

II. Compliance Monitoring to Program Conditions

The Compliance Verification System monitors how faithfully beneficiaries comply with the conditions of

the program. Partners from DepEd and DOH monitor conditions for education and health respectively,

while the C/ML monitors compliance of beneficiaries to Family Development Sessions. This will later be

used as basis for the release of cash grants of beneficiaries.

For the registered, clean and active beneficiaries of Pantawid Pamilya, they are being monitored in their

compliance to the program conditions with the help of partners from DepEd and DOH. The reporting

period is done bi-monthly.

For the second quarter, the performance of the beneficiaries with respect to the compliance in

education has increased. Meanwhile, as to the attendance to Family Development Sessions and Health

Center Visits-Children o-5 years old decreased.

In addressing the non-compliance of the monitored beneficiaries to program conditions, the

municipal links are directed to conduct house visits to provide proper interventions. Among

those reasons include the following:


(1) The beneficiaries attended some business matters/ personal matters;

(2) Some of the grantees were not interested; and

(3) The beneficiaries had forgotten the scheduled check-ups of their children.

Despite the decrease in the compliance rate in the Health Center, this condition still meet the

95% compliance rate set by the NPMO in the 2nd Period while achieving a high rate for Family

Development Sessions in the region remain as a challenge. All other conditions surpassed the

95% compliance rate.

The accomplishment of the region as to the Allotment Received dipped to 125.85%. The total funds

increased by 1.28% from the 1st quarter. The advocacy fund has the highest contribution on the increase

aside from the regular expenses downloaded by the Central Office this quarter which resulted to high

percentage of accomplishment on the allotment received with 389.16% but low percentage of

accomplishment on the cash allocation with 33.17%. As for the cash grants, some were not disbursed

since some beneficiaries were unable to claim them due to update issues, or the grantees were not able

to come during the scheduled payouts. All undisbursed grants however, will be released to beneficiaries

in the following payouts, and provided all necessary updates have taken effect. Moreover, the funded

amount is based on the actual compliance of the beneficiaries which resulted to 89.37 % of the target

but was able to disbursed 94.88%. (Please refer to Table A and B).

Location/Area Coverage: Region wide Description: The Health Facilities Enhancement Program (HFEP)1 is one of the banner programs of the current administration being implemented by DOH in all the provinces nationwide. Its main goal is the improvement of basic, essential and as well as specialized health services. It also envisions the revitalization of primary health care facilities and the rationalization of the various levels of hospitals to decongested-referral hospitals. Facilities will be upgraded to make them more responsive to the “need” of the catchment area, to provide Basic Emergency Obstetric and Newborn Care (BEmONC) and Comprehensive Emergency and Newborn Care (CEmONC) services, and to strengthen the health facility referral system or network. Specifically, it aims to: (1) upgrade priority BHSs and RHUs to provide BEmONC services for the reduction of maternal mortality; (2) upgrade government hospitals and health facilities in provinces to make them more responsive to the health needs of the catchment population; (3) upgrade lower level facilities to be able to accommodate nursing students and to establish gate-keeping functions to avoid congestion in higher level hospitals, and; (4) expand the services of existing tertiary hospitals to provide higher tertiary care and as teaching, training hospitals. As of June 2013, HFEP has already accomplished 60 percent for the period 2012-2013. For 2012, the status of the 53 projects is now 61.14 percent and CY 2013 which has 30 projects has 50.15 percent accomplishment. Of the 53 projects in 2012, 30 projects have been completed, 12 are on-going with approved additional time, 4 have been previously suspended and are now operational and the rest are for bidding completion on July and are addressed for some site problems. For the 2013 projects, 11 have been completed, 5 have been requested for modification and re-alignment and the rest are on-going construction.

Description:

The project goal is to help reduce poverty in poor rural indigenous communities in the upland areas of the Cordillera Administrative Region. The objectives are to (1) Livelihoods improvement and increase farm family income of the rural poor through sustainable agricultural development; and (2) Enhance the quality of life of the rural poor by improving land tenure security, food security and watershed conservation. The project has five components: (1) community mobilization, participatory planning of investments, and land titling; (2) community watershed conservation (including forest management and agro forestry development); (3) agricultural and agribusiness development, and promotion of income-generating activities; (4) rural infrastructure development; and (5) project management and coordination.

Second Cordillera Highland Agricultural Resource Management Project (CHARMP 2)


Status of implementation: Now on its fifth year of implementation, as of June 2013 the project posted an overall accomplishment of 68.41 percent, compared to 69.54 percent target. Though still having a negative slippage the project is catching-up with its target accomplishment from a -20 percent slippage during the 1st quarter down to a -1 percent slippage in the 2nd quarter.

During the quarter, the problems encountered are: (a) capability of FMR-contractors to complete projects on time, (b) slow liquidation of funds released to LGUs for the implementation of infrastructure subprojects (c) loan effectivity of ADB fund (US$10M). To address these problems the following measures have been adopted; (a) conduct consultation with contractors of infrastructure subprojects for problem solving to facilitate the resolution of implementation problems; and (b) close coordination with concerned LGU- accountants on the prompt and regular submission of liquidation reports.

Description:

The Agrarian Reform Infrastructure Support Project (ARISP) Phase III is a foreign-assisted project of DAR, designed to provide basic support services to help develop Agrarian Reform Communities (ARCs). It is funded from a concessional loan from the Government of Japan with counterpart financing from the DAR, Local Government Units and the beneficiaries. The project timetable is from CY 2008 to CY 2014.

The project espouses the concept of integrated area development in the ARCs wherein basic infrastructure, organization / institutional, agricultural and enterprise development support are combined to produce incremental growth in productivity and income among farmers. Specifically, the project considers the provision of farm-to-market roads (FMR) and bridges, irrigation projects, post-harvest facilities, and potable water supply system under its infrastructure component.

For institutional development component, this entails the organizing and strengthening of various organizations in the ARCs to build their capabilities to operate and manage the infrastructure facilities and agri-business in a sustainable basis. The project also supports the development of viable agribusiness in the ARCs to harness the agricultural potentials, add value to agricultural products, and make them more competitive in the market.

4. CY 2012 Projects: Findings/ Observations and Recommendations 4.1. Construction of Road along Ambangeg Junction National Road to Mount Pulag

Specific Location : Bila, Bokod & Babaoak, Kabayan, Benguet Length of Road Project : 5.2 km PCCP (t= 0.15 m.; w= 4–6.10m.) Project Cost : Php 40.0 M Contract Cost : Php 37.1 M Project Schedule : Nov. 17, 2012 to Apr. 17, 2013 Major Work Items : PCCP, Pipe culverts, concrete curb & gutter

and road widening (excavation) Contractor : ALCEL Physical Status : 68.00 %

Findings/ Observations:

a) The project is progressing smoothly. A temporary suspension order (one month) was

previously issued due to inclement weather in the area. b) The PCCP width is generally 4.0 meters but double lane (6.10 m.) along settlement

areas or villages. c) The Project Engineer closely supervises the project and has issued 16 sets of site


instructions from November 2012 to March 2013 to improve work output. d) During the concrete paving, the oversized stones were removed from the concrete mix

while pouring. e) Some temperature and transverse cracks were observed on concrete pavements on

steep sections while undergoing curing process. According to DE David Buliyat, the plasticity index of fresh concrete decreases when poured on steep road section thus resulting to surface cracks.

f) Unstable slopes were observed along the widened sections.

Recommendations:

a) For the Project Engineer to continue to closely supervise the project and ensure that the issued site instructions are complied with by the Contractor.

b) The temperature cracks should be further observed/ investigated and steps taken to avoid similar occurrence on concrete spans on steep sections. Remedial measures like concrete epoxy may be applied on surface cracks.

c) An appropriate action on serious transverse cracks should be undertaken or referred to the DPWH Quality Assurance Unit.

d) For subsequent funding allocations, the Engineering District Office should program for the provision of slope protection on critical sections. Meanwhile, the Engineering District Office may request to use savings for the purpose.

Before the field inspection, the Team had a courtesy meeting with the Apayao Provincial Vice-Governor Hector Pascua in Luna, Apayao. After the on-site visit, the Team conducted an exit conference with the staff of DPWH Apayao First Engineering District.

2. Project Profile

The road is a major component of the Cordillera Roads Improvement Project (CRIP) being the northern tip of the regional backbone. The 78.75 km. road stretch directly links the capital town Kabugao to Lower Apayao, the seat of provincial government and business growth center. The specific section inspected is the 2.516 km road concreting along Barangays Swan and Mataguisi in Pudtol funded under CY 2012 DPWH Regular Infrastructure Program.

The road is one of the Apayao national roads recently upgraded from secondary classification to arterial by Sec. Rogelio L. Singson through DPWH Memorandum dated November 2, 2011. This memorandum was a result of the RDC-CAR dialogue with Sec. Singson held at the DPWH-CAR office on August 5, 2011.

The road starts at junction Lenneng along the Kabugao-Conner-Abbut Road and goes northeast traversing municipalities of Kabugao, Pudtol and Luna and ending at Junction Luna in Abulug, Cagayan along the Pan-Philippine Highway or Maharlika Highway. The Pan-Philippine Highway connects Laoag, Ilocos Norte and

C-14


Tuguegarao, Cagayan. The Kabugao side (12.32 km) traverses a rugged mountainous terrain, then goes down to the Paco Valley. The road will also traverse the Mataguisi Valley in Pudtol. These valleys have vast potential for agricultural production. The bridges across Apayao River (Bubulayan Bridge) and its tributaries Maton and Nagan Rivers are already completed. The construction of two (2) other major bridges, Malilibag Bridge (48.8 lm) and Paco Bridge (36 lm) are programmed for CY 2014 to finally complete the road link. Along the Kabugao side, however, there are still six (6) temporary bridges that need to be replaced with permanent bridge structures having a total length of 90 lm. The specific output for the CY 2012 project is 2.516 km. road concreting. For CY 2013, Php 173,924,000 was approved for the concreting of 6.49 km. along the same road line. However, the consultant has yet to prepare detailed engineering design for the PCCP project for subsequent procurement by DPWH-CO. By end-2013, the road is expected to be 51 percent concrete paved.

4. Findings and Observations: a) The road concreting has been completed within the timeframe. b) Mounds of aggregates and boulders were seen along the road. These may post

hazard to motorists. Accordingly, the aggregates and boulders will be used for sideworks on intermittent sections, i.e. retaining wall, curb and gutter and drainage, funded from the project savings (Php 7.0 M.).

c) Some sections have no backfill on shoulders and drainage system on the mountain side which can lead to scouring of the subbase support.

d) There was no asphalt sealant on the contraction joints of some spans. e) There is need for slope protection along critical sections of the road line.

5. Comments/ Recommendations: a) The project is commendable as it was completed within schedule. b) The contractor should be instructed to properly stock the aggregates and

2. Project Profile

The road is a major lateral road of the Cordillera Roads Improvement Project (CRIP). It directly connects Apayao Province to Ilocos Region. It traverses the municipalities of Kabugao and Calanasan in Apayao and turns west to Solsona in Ilocos Norte. The road is among the Apayao national roads upgraded from secondary to arterial road classification by Sec. Rogelio L. Singson through DPWH Memorandum dated November 2, 2011. This memorandum was a result of the RDC dialogue with Sec. Singson held at the DPWH-CAR office on August 5, 2011. The 63.543 km road stretch is the Apayao segment of the San Nicolas-Solsona-Kabugao-Conner-Abbut Lateral Road and provides direct access to Laoag International Airport. The road starts in Junction Cabetian, Poblacion, Kabugao and ends in Solsona (Apayao-Ilocos Norte Boundary). Reckoning from Kabugao going

C-19


northwest to Calanasan, road opening and widening of 36 km. is already being undertaken. For the next programming period, 15.7 km is for road opening (Kabugao, 5 km & Calanasan, 10.7 km). Along the Kabugao section (37 km), seven (7) major bridges are to be constructed with a total length of 445 lm crossing several tributaries of the Apayao River. Among the longest are across Sicapo River (120 lm) and Madduang River (80 lm). Towards the boundary along the Calanasan section (26.543 km), four (4) bridges with a total length of 120 lm are for programming. At the Ilocos Norte side (80 km), concrete paving is being completed up to the regional boundary. As of March 2013, more than 70 km have been paved.

The ongoing projects along the road line are Php 100 M for CY 2012 (DPWH Apayao 1st District) and Php 177.5 M for CY 2013. The CY 2013 project has two (2) packages: (a) Php 50.0 M project along Kabugao section (1st District), which entails road widening, graveling, slope protection and 1.6 km concreting from Junction Cabetian; and (b) Php 127.5 M project along Calanasan section (2nd District), which entails 5.392 km of road opening, graveling and cross

drainage installation, starting 35 km south of Poblacion Calanasan and 8.7 km east of the regional boundary.

RPMC-CAR Inspection Report on CHARMP2 – RID Component, Farm-to-Market Roads

on June 18, 2013 in Sablan, Benguet


The Regional Project Monitoring Committee (RPMC-CAR) Inspectorate Team held an inspection of farm-to-market roads (FMRs) in Sablan, Benguet on 18 June 2013. The Inspection Team was composed of Director Julio P. De Luna of NICA as Team Leader and representatives from DBM-CAR (Mr. James Degsi), DILG-CAR (Mr. Marlon Walang), NICA (Ms. Plormelinda Olet), and NEDA-CAR (Ms. Sharon Africano) as Members.

The team was assisted by CHARMP2 RID Coordinator Engr. Filemon Salvador and Benguet Provincial Rural Infrastructure Engineer (PRIE) Engr. Mary Ann Fianza.

The monitoring activity was jointly undertaken with the DA-Special Projects Coordination and Management Assistance Division Head Mr. Roy Abaya and finance officer Ms. Ester Simbajon.

2. Projects Inspected The following projects, which are part of the Rural Infrastructure Development (RID) component of CHARMP2 were the subjects of the Inspection, to wit:

3. Project Profile

The Second Cordillera Highland Agricultural Resource Management Project (CHARMP2) is a seven-year project (2009-2015) with an estimated total cost of P3.05 Billion ($66.43 Million) covering 170 barangays in 37 municipalities of the six (6) provinces in the Cordillera Administrative Region (CAR). The project has five components, namely: (a) Social Mobilization, Participatory Investment Planning and Land Titling; (b) Community Watershed Conservation, Forest Management and Agroforestry; (c) Agriculture, Agribusiness and Income Generating Activity; (d) Rural Infrastructure Development (RID); and, (e) Project Management and Coordination. The RID component seeks to improve rural infrastructure essential for the promotion of agricultural production and marketing and the enhancement of rural-based livelihood through the mobilization of beneficiaries. Its sub-components are: Farm-to-Market Access, Community Irrigation, and Domestic Water Supply. 4. Findings

The ongoing improvement/rehabilitation of the roads incurred some delays mainly due to the following:

problems in hauling construction and other materials from the source to the project site - because of the instability of the bridge, loads of delivery trucks are limited and sometimes, hauling of construction materials had to be done manually;

landowners initiated the conduct of riprapping of portions of their lands where the project will pass through; and,

There are times that workers do not report for work because they have to tend to their farms – part of the agreement for the project implementation is that local residents should be given priority in hiring of workers to work at the project site.

With the extension approved by CHARMP, the contractor ensured the completion of the projects by July 15, 2013. Meanwhile, the following observations were noted during the inspection:

a. Transverse cracks were evident on the newly concreted pavement;

b. No drainage system in some portions where there are noted water convergence;

c. The provision of PCCP curb/gutter in some sections are not included in the

approved program of work (POW); and,


d. The contractors were from the locality, thus, were advised to ensure quality of workmanship.

5. Exit Briefing/Conference

During the exit briefing/conference with the contractors and some local officials, the following were discussed:

a. The Duyot-Bagong will be completed within the additional 25 calendar days despite the inclement weather;

b. The contractor will install remedies to address the transverse cracks noted which are caused by the temperature during construction;

c. The contractor will allot provision for line canals to serve as drainage in areas where there are noted convergence of water;

d. The Municipal Engineer of Sablan to submit Status Reports for the two (2) projects as basis for the release of the 5% Provincial Counterpart Fund Allocation (CFA).

The RPMC Inspectorate Team and the DA made similar observations, thus, requested the contractor to make necessary measures so as not to compromise the quality of the projects being implemented. On the financial aspect, Mr Abaya advised the Municipal Engineer to closely monitor the liquidation of funds to avoid delays in project implementation.
