Operation Phase

Land
Increase in the generation of solid wastes during the operational phase of the project may result in
degradation of the sanitary conditions as a result of poor garbage disposal. In order to mitigate this
problem, the proponent will continue to implement an adequate and appropriate waste collection
system such as waste segregation and provision of waste bins. Operational of Material Resource
Facility (MRF) will also be a great help in implementing effective Solid Waste Management (SWM).
The staffs, employees and workers shall be required to strictly observe good housekeeping
procedures. The proponent shall continue to coordinate with the LGU’s Garbage Collection and
Disposal Unit for a regular collection.

Hazardous wastes shall be managed accordingly and must comply with the requirements of RA
6969 otherwise known as Toxic Substances and Hazardous and Nuclear Wastes Control Act of 1990
for proper treatment, storage and disposal. However, there is no accredited treater in the locality.
Thus, sourcing out the services of the accredited 3 rd party will be considered.

Water
Increased wastewater generation is expected once the upgrade was completed. The existing septic
tanks shall still be used exclusively for the existing buildings where it is serving. Additional buildings
will be putting individual septic tanks for their wastewater.
 Community
The project will contribute in generating job opportunities in the area. Qualified local residents will
be given priority. For safety of workers and employees, implementation of Occupational Safety and
Health will be strictly implemented.

F. Matrix of Environmental Monitoring Plan with Summary Discussion

An Environmental Monitoring Plan is a set of activities that will be with the primary purpose of
assessing, ascertaining, and evaluating the biophysical factors that are at stake in relation to the
operation of the project. Assessment of these factors is the best basis in determining whether the
project is causing a substantial and significant damage to the environment.

Regular monitoring may be conducted in coordination with the appropriate DENR Office or Bureau as
well as the LGU Office mandated by law to monitor said area. The results of these monitoring activities
shall be used as parameters in determining whether the proponent is in strict compliance of the
mitigating measures stipulated in this report.

III. INTRODUCTION

A. Project Background

The Primary Care Facility-Infirmary (PCFI) with office address at San Roque, Sagñay, Camarines Sur.
Originally, this is a Primary Care Facility constructed in 1995 for surgical missions conducted once a
year. Later, it was renovated for the use of the Rural Health Unit (RHU) and as a Birthing Home with 6-
bed capacity under the RHU to maximize health care services to the Sañgaynons. Presently, it is on the
process of upgrading the Birthing facility to an Infirmary with 15 beds capacity granted with Permit to
Construct by the DOH on April 1, 2016.

IV. PROJECT DESCRIPTION

A. Project Rationale
The Primary Care Facility-Infirmary (PCFI) with office address at San Roque, Sagñay, Camarines Sur
and has been in operation for surgical missions conducted annually since 1995, then as Birthing
Home with 6-bed capacity under RHU in 2010 which has been officially approved by Sangguniang
Bayan in 2012. A Permit to Construct/Renovate the Lying-In was issued by the Department of
Health (DOH) Regional Office V and accredited by the Philippine Health Insurance Corporation
(PhilHealth) with 6 bed capacity in 2015.

Now, it is on the process of upgrading the facility to an infirmary with 15 beds capacity granted with
Permit to Construct by the DOH last April 1, 2016. This is due to the increasing medical needs of
Sagñaynons.

Upgrading the health care facility will enhance the quality of services provided to patients that will
ensure better health outcomes. Likewise, services will be extended to accommodate more patients
as well as promote immediate and convenient patient care.

Realization of this project will also generate more income for the Hospital which might reduce its
dependency on the National Government fund.
B. Project Components

D. Project Description
 Construction Phase
Construction and other similar activities for the proposed upgrade of the Sagñay Primary Care
Facility-Infirmary will only be done within the compound having an area of 4,245.00 m 2. The
renovation activities shall commence when all required government permits were secured. The
following construction activities will be undertaken:
 Demolition works
 Masonry Works and Tile works
 Doors and Windows
 Ceiling Works
 Plumbing and Sanitary Works
 Electrical works
 Roofing Works
 Forms and Scaffoldings
 Painting Works

The construction works will not utilize equipment such as excavator, welding machines and other
equipment. Construction materials will be procured from local construction suppliers and hardware
within the Province of Camarines Sur.

Operational Phase

The hospital operation is 24 hours, 7 days/week. To date, there are 23 combined workforces in the
infirmary (Permanent and Job Order workers). It will increase once the proposed upgrading were
finished since the infirmary will be capable of accepting more patients. The following were the
present and proposed services offered by PCI:
 Labor and Birthing
 Nursing
 Medical
 OPD
 Administrative
 Ancillary

The Primary Care Facility-Infirmary (PCFI) with office address at San Roque, Sagñay, Camarines Sur.
Originally, this is a Primary Care Facility constructed in 1995 for surgical missions conducted once a
year. Later, it was renovated for the use of the Rural Health Unit (RHU) and as a Birthing Home with 6-
bed capacity under the RHU to maximize health care services to the Sañgaynons. Presently, it is on the
process of upgrading the Birthing facility to an Infirmary with 15 beds capacity granted with Permit to
Construct by the DOH on April 1, 2016.

The proponent does not see any probability of abandoning the project. Operation of this kind of project
remained very viable and vital. Thus the increase in the capacity and hospital’s capability is significant.
The proponent does not see any reason of stopping or closing project. However, should such situation
arise in the future; a separate abandonment plan will be submitted to this Office (DENR-EMB 5) prior to
implementing such activity.

V. CRITICAL ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITION

A. Project Rationale

The Primary Care Facility-Infirmary (PCFI) with office address at San Roque, Sagñay, Camarines Sur. It is
specifically located in the Eastern portion of Camarines Sur facing the coastal waters of Lagonoy Gulf. It
is approximately 48 kilometers from Naga City.

Topography
 The municipality of Tigaon is located in the Eastern portion of Camarines Sur facing the coastal waters
of Lagonoy Gulf. It is approximately 48 kilometers from Naga City. It bounded on the South by the
Municipality of Buhi and Tiwi, Albay, on the North by the Municiplaity of Tigaon, on the West by the
Municipality of Ocampo and Iriga City and on the east by the Lagonoy Gulf.

Land Use

Sagñay has a total land area of 11,819 hectares. This is about 4.70% of the land area of Camarines Sur
Province. This municipal land area is distributed among the present 19 barangays. Of municipality’s
total land area 2.64% or 312 hectares are urban barangays and 97.36% or 11 507 hectares are rural
barangays.

Soil

The different soil types to be found within the Municipality of Sagñay falls under San Miguel silt loam.
The underlying geology are made up of several types, namely sedimentary, igneous and sedimentary
rocks. The sedimentary rocks of alluvium deposits - fluvicatrine ocustrine alluvium. These are unsorted
loosely consolidated pebbles, gravel silt, coral debris and clay found in the flood plains, riverbanks, sand
bars, beaches and tidal flats.

Igneous and metamorphic rocks especially volcano last alluvial fans which are due mainly to its
proximity to Mt. Iriga and Mt.Isarog. The rest of municipality is of Andesite and chiefly andesitic flows
of possible hydrothermal alteration are found along the northern portion adjacent to Mayon Volcano in
Albay.

Climate

The Municipality of Sagñay belongs to Type II Climate characterized by the absence of dry season.
Maximum rainfall I occurs from June to December, and average monthly rainfall is 198.05 millimeters.
Prevailing winds are generally from north-east to south-west with wind speed highest on December at
5.2 knots and lowest in April at 2.6 knots. Hottest month in May at 33.6°C and coldest in January at
20.8°C. However, the climate change phenomenon has changed the past climate pattern. Dry spells are
becoming more pronounced, as it is with the wet season. The phenomenon is felt all over the country
as well.

B. Biological Environment

Vegetation
A site inspection is conducted to determine the effects of the proposed project on vegetation in the
project site. The area is surrounded by both naturally-growing trees and planted trees that serves as
buffer zone to jointly address noise and odor. Since the project is limited to increasing its capacity, no
foreseeable adverse impact is expected. The proponent is committed to planting more trees in the area
surrounding the project site.

VI. ENVIRONMENTAL PERFORMANCES

A. Physical Environment
1. Compliance with RA 9003 (Ecological Solid Waste Management Act of 2000)
Primary Care Facility-Infirmary (PCFI) generates non-hazardous wastes such as corrugated
boxes, papers, plastic bottles, scraps, wood scraps and fallen leaves, etc. Non-recyclables or
residual wastes are also generated such as dirt, small plastics, etc.

Recyclables were collected and segregated in the temporary MRF of the Hospital. Color-coded
trash bins were distributed within the hospital premises such as wards, offices and waiting
areas to avoid scattered wastes. Recyclables were sold to scrap itinerant buyers while non-
 recyclables/residual wastes were disposed of through the municipality disposal site. These
wastes are collected daily.

2. Compliance with RA 6969 (Toxic Substances and Hazardous and Nuclear Wastes Control Act
of 1990) and DOH Healthcare Waste Management Manual (3rd Edition)
Hazardous wastes generated by PCFI were managed in compliance with the RA 6969 and the
DOH Healthcare Waste Management Manual. Types of wastes generated were pathological
wastes, infectious wastes, sharps, pharmaceutical wastes, used oil, busted fluorescent lamps.

These wastes were managed as follows:

HAZARDOUS WASTES MANAGEMENT
Pathological Disposed through Septic Tank intended for placenta only and
other body tissues remove during operations.
Infectious wastes Stored in yellow bags. This were disinfected by benzol or
chlorine solution prior to storing in temporary storage area; and
eventually will be transported and disposed of by 3 rd party
(accredited by DENR-EMB).
Sharps Each ward was provided with needle (punctured-proof)
containers for the collection of used sharps. When the needle
containers were full, it is collected and stored in large drums
and eventually will be transported and disposed of by 3 rd party
(accredited by DENR-EMB).
Pharmaceuticals Inventory is done regularly to avoid spillage. About to expire
drugs were given to indigent patients while expired drugs were
placed in temporary storage area and eventually will be
transported and disposed of by 3 rd party (accredited by DENR-
EMB).
Used Oil Used oil is generated from maintenance of ambulances and
service vehicles of the hospital, generator set and other
equipment. Used oil were stored and secured in steel drums.
Disposal of used oil will be done by 3rd party, (accredited by
DENR-EMB).
BFLs/CFLs These came from lighting system of the hospital. BFLs and CFLs
were stored in wooden boxes and kept in storage area.

The site for the proposed PCFI has very minimal vegetation such as grasses and few trees.
Application for Permit to Cut trees was already applied with the PENRO – Sagñay. Other
proposed facilities will just involve renovation and/or demolition of existing buildings.

B. Water

Compliance with RA 9275 (The Philippine Clean Water Act of 2004)

Water source of the hospital is supplied by Partido Water Supply System (PWSS). Cistern Tank and
two (2) overhead tanks were provided to ensure steady supply of water for the hospitals activity.

Generated wastewaters were treated in the septic tanks of the Infirmary and eventually will be
transported and disposed of by 3rd party (accredited by DENR-EMB)..

C. Air

Compliance with RA 8749 (The Philippine Clean Air Act of 1999)

PCFI operates Air Pollution Source Equipment (APSEs) such as generators sets. These generator sets
were covered by Permit to Operate by DENR-EMB as required under RA 8749. Regular maintenance
of generator sets shall be done regularly to ensure efficiency of combustion during operation.

D. People/Community
 Operation of the infirmary will not be disrupted during renovation of the building; however, safety
of everyone is the main concern of the PCFI management.

Construction site will be fenced with necessary signage. Other safety precautions and facilities will
be implemented. Walkway will be designated and strictly implemented by security personnel.
Workers will be required to wear PPE.

To mitigate negative impacts during renovation and operational phase of the project, PCFI will
insure proper implementation of recommended measures.

As a whole, the project is found to be technically feasible and implementations of mitigating

measures for the potential impacts are manageable. The project is not a critical project.

VII. ENVIRONMENTAL RISK ASSESSMENT (WHEN APPLICABLE)

The proponent continues to cooperate with various government agencies to ensure that the project
will not pose risk or environmental hazards.
