A. Provincial Background

i. Location and Demographics

Surigao del Sur was originally inhabited by Mamanuas and Manobos, which was officially declared as a province by virtue of R.A 2786 enacted in June 19,1960. The province was formerly part of Region XI but was declared part of the recently created Region 13 or the CARAGA Region. The province is bounde by Surigao del Norte to the North, Agusan del Sur and Agusal Del Norte to the West, Davao Oriental to the South and to the east, the Pacific Ocean. The estimated annual income of the province at the time of its creation was about PhP300,000; however by the 1980s, the province was reclassified as a first class province owing to its annual income which reached to about PhP727,817,648.

Figure A1. Map of Surigao del Sur

The province was originally composed of 13 municipalities. As of 2010, the province is now composed of 19 municipalities.

B. Project Identification and Prioritization Profilei. E-VSA Maps and Statistics One of the guidelines set forth under PRDP in formulating the competitiveness strategy for certain commodity involves developing the commoditys value chain upgrading strategy. Should an intervention be indicated like enterprise development or farm-to-market road, in any segment of the VCA, the location best suited for the intervention shall be determined through the expanded vulnerability and suitability Analysis or E-VSA tool (Source: PRDP I-PLAN OM). E-VSA is a science-based tool used by PRDP in prioritizing areas of investment in any given province or municipality for certain commodity(ies) with competitive advantage. By competitive advantage means that the prioritized commodity, e.g. abaca has considerable volume of production and large extent of hectarage that can generate a commodity-based enterprise that has significance in local or global market. E-VSA plays a significant role in identifying which areas to invest and what commodity will be supported by PRDP funds under I-REAP or I-BUILD subprojects.

As per E-VSA result, amongst the 19 municipalities in Surigao del Sur, the municipality of Marihatag is 4th in the ranking. This means that Marihatag is eligible for PRDP intervention in support to abaca (see Table B1, Figure B1).

Surigao del Sur is the largest abaca producing province in the region and in Mindanao. In 2013, the province accounted for 65% of the regions abaca output (Abaca VCA, 2014). The province has been supplying abaca as raw material for pulp production, specialty papermaking, cordage production, and handicrafts to Cagayan de Oro City, Davao, and the Bicol region (Phil FIDA, 2005). The top 5 leading producers of abaca in the province are Tago, San Miguel, Bislig, Marihatag, and San Agustin. Table 2 shows the production of abaca in Caraga region.

Caraga region (where Surigao del Sur is one of the significant sources of raw material) is one of the regions in the country with a robust abaca industry. As of 2014, the region posted an average production volume of 5,828 MT and has a total production area of 10,437 hectares (Abaca VCA, 2014). It is home of 3,439 abaca producers whose farm holdings average from 1.0 to 3.5 hectares. The region has 44 licensed abaca traders and 4 fibercraft makers. The industry generates a total of 27,448 jobs. Direct dependents include abaca farmers, classifiers/sorters, manufacturers, traders, exporters and hundreds of fiber craft processors (PhilFIDA data, 2005). This suggests the importance of abaca to the farmers in Surigao del Sur in general and Marihatag in particular. This also indicates how important the commodity is in terms of its contribution to the economy of the province/municipality. The commodity has essentially provided steady income to farmers, which redound to substantial revenue to the province. It is to be noted that abaca together with coconut and rice is among the top three leading crops in Surigao del Sur (LGU Marihatag 2011).One of the development agenda of the regional industry cluster is to make Caraga as the production and processing hub in the country. With this goal, the industry cluster will capitalize on its strategic location, as it is adjacent to Region 10, home to the worlds biggest abaca pulping plant.

To realize this goal, the cluster will work on the expansion of production areas from 10,437 hectares at present, to 25,000 by 2020 and increase yield from 0.56 MT/hectare at present to 2.0 MT/hectare in the near future (PhilFIDA no date). This is where Surigao del Sur, particularly Marihatag plays a significant role in the abaca industry. A key ingredient to boost the abaca production in the province is to improve farm to market roads. ii. Value Chain Summary In 2012, the world production of abaca reached up to 77.9 thousand metric tons (MT) and the Philippines accounted for 83% of the world production. The second largest abaca producing country is Ecuador, where abaca is grown on large estates and production is increasingly mechanized. In the Philippines, the abaca sector consists mainly of smallholders. Philippine abaca has nine grades for each type of cleaning compared to the five grades of Ecuador. As such, Philippine abaca presents a wider spectrum of quality choices and answers the various needs of different manufacturers like the handicraft, cord and papermaking industries (Source: VCA 201). The Philippines during the pre-war era ranked first in worlds abaca fiber production, in fact we are the only abaca producing nation in the world until the 1920s (Baroa and Severa, n.d.). In the Philippines, This commodity has a strong economic relationship with resource-constrained farmers situated in the forestlands and in marginal uplands. In fact, abaca is the source of income of most of the marginal farmers in the uplands ever since. Abaca or the Manila Hemp is considered as the champion of the fiber industry in the international community. This is endemic and indigenous to the countrys warm, wet climate and it has been flourishing on Philippine soil for centuries, long before the Spaniards came to the Philippines. Caraga and Davao are among the leading abaca producing regions in the country.

Source: Abaca VCA, 2014Figure B2. Breakdown of abaca production in the Philippines by island group, 2013

Abaca is cultivated in 138,369 hectares in 2013. Collectively, Mindanao accounted for 34% of the area planted to abaca (Figure 2). Total national production was reported at 64,952 MT with the highest production in Bicol Region at 24,078 MT followed by Eastern Visayas with 16,597 MT. Three of the six regions in Mindanao namely: Davao Region, Caraga, and ARMM are among the top 5 abaca producing regions in the Philippines. Mindanao regions accounted for 34% of the total production (Source: VCA, 2014).

The national average yield in 2013 was 470 kilograms per hectare. The top 3 high yielding regions are ARMM (620 kg/ha), Caraga (560 kg/ha), and Davao Region (550 kg/ha). Bicol Region ranks 4th in terms of average yield. The average yield for the whole Mindanao is higher by 4% than the national average at 490 kilograms per hectare (Source: VCA, 2014). Table 3 presents the abaca production in the Philippines whereby Caraga ranks 4th overall in terms of volume of production and area planted.

Source: Abaca VCA, 2014The number one abaca-producing province in the Philippines is Catanduanes with the highest yield at 820 kilograms per hectare. Abaca farms in Catanduanes are among the first who have achieved a Rainforest Alliance Certification on Sustainable Farming. With its high volume, lead firms tend to focus more on Catanduanes especially in connection with the achievement of the Rainforest Alliance certification. Northern Samar and Leyte ranked second and third, respectively. Six (6) provinces from Mindanao comprised the rest of the top 10 abaca producing provinces in the country (see Table B4).

The Value Chain Analysis (VCA) for abaca conducted by PRDP in 2014 revealed that in Caraga region, Surigao del Sur ranked 4th among the top producing provinces in the country, only next to Leyte. Table 4 shows the area and volume of abaca production in Surigao del Sur.

The value chain analysis (VCA) conducted by PRDP also revealed that the province of Surigao del Sur plays an important role in boosting the abaca industry because it is one of the top producing abaca provinces in the country. Also, abaca has a niche in the overall agricultural development in the province.

iii. Abaca Production System

As the major focus of the of the road infrastructure project, abaca is grown to about 2,227 hectares in the municipality of Marihatag, which ranks as the third most dominant crop in the municipality. In the Municipality, abaca production is primarily small holders. The average land area devoted to the production of the crop is about 1,189 hectares. However, in terms of the cropping system, most of the abaca growers are planting the crop as an intercrop to main crops like coconut and other agro-forest crops. While there are those who plant abaca as a monocrop, the frequency is very few.

iv. Processing

In terms of processing, there are two levels that abaca farmers process raw abaca into fibers ready for the market. The small producers, owing to the smallness of scale, can only process abaca using manual stripping techniques. Consequently, the fiber processed is coarse by nature and are referred to in the market as Laguras.

However, this type of fiber is considered low grade and are therefore valued lower in the market place.

The larger farmers who can afford motorized abaca stripping machines are able to produce the finer grade referred to as S1 (S derived from the phrase spindle-strip derived referring to the grading system for abaca fiber), which is valued with a premium price in the market.

v. Trading and Marketing

In the Municipality of Marihatag, there is only one large buyer of abaca fiber. Farmers sell their abaca fiber in bales transported generally by habal habal at a cost of about PhP3 per kilogram during summer but could be as high as PhP5 per kilogram during the rainy season.

The Integrator buys the fiber from the farmers and upon generating sufficient volume, transport the produce to Davao or Cagayan de oro City (Figure B3). There are small buyers in some of the major producing areas in the municipality like in Barangay Mahaba who also procures fiber from small farmers and pass it on to Integrators in the neighboring municipalities like San Agustin. However, the quality of the fiber is sensitive to proper storage. If marketing is delayed, the price of fiber goes down by about 30% due to reduction in quality.

Figure B3 outlines the flow of abaca fibers from Marihatag and abaca fibers from the other parts of Mindanao.

C. The Sub-Project: The Road Influence Areai. Sub-Project Objectives

The general objective of the project is to improve the welfare of the farmers in the road influence area (RIA). Specifically, the sub-project aims to:

i.a.reduce post harvest losses in transporting the products;

i.b.reduce transportation cost;

i.c.increase economic activities in the RIA;

i.d.minimize physical injuries to commuters using the hazardous habal-habal; and

i.e.provide better access to markets and other amenities in the central business districts.

ii. Geographic Boundaries

Marihatag as one of the 19 municipalities of Surigao del Sur is bounded in the north by the municipalities of Tago and Cagwait and by the province of Agusan del Sur to the West. To the south lies the municipality of San Agustin and to the east, the municipality is bounded by the Pacific Ocean.

Figure C1. Geographic boundaries of Marihatag

Marihatag is still a third class municipality with a 2015 equivalent income of about PhP40 Million. The municipality is composed of 12 Barangays as home to about 17,926 persons spread across an area of about an estimated land area of about 312.5sqaure kilometers. The estimated total land area of the municipality is roughly 34,250 hectares. More than 90 percent of the land are is spread between agriculture (41.7%) and forestry which accounts for roughly 49.33 percent. Built-up areas only accounts for 5.21 percent of the total land area of the municipality. The remaining areas are swamps and mangroves.

The proposed farm to market road will affect 3 of the 12 Barangays of the municipality of Marihatag. The 16.67 - kilometer road concreting project will traverse Barangays Bayan, San Isidro and Mahaba.

iii. Relative Distance to Growth and Commercial Centers

Figure C2. Road Network Map of the Municipality of MarihatagThe distances of the Barangays influenced by the proposed farm to market roads to the Poblacion ranges from 3.65 kilometers for Bayan and 18.68 for Mahaba. San Isidro is about 11.63 kilometers from the poblacion. While a few four wheel vehicles pass through the Bayan San Isidro Mahaba segment, most of the commuters passing through the road use habal habal for their transport needs.

iv. Demographics

The proposed road segment will affect about 4,969 persons distributed across the three Barangays. San Isidro has the most number of people in the RIA at roughly 2,029 followed by Bayan with an estimated population of about 1,974. Mahaba has the lowest population at 966 persons. By gender, there are more male than female members of the population affected by the proposed road construction. In total, there are about 2,542 male members of the population compared to about 2,427 for the female members. Across Barangay, the distribution fallows the same pattern as the general population, that is, the most number are from San Isidro followed by Bayan and the lowest number is from Mahaba.

The geo-tagging exercise done by the team validated the argument for a focus on abaca as the main commodity to be supported by the road project. Along the Mahaba San Isidro segment alone, there are five abaca processing centers. In the same segment, one finds a copra processing center and in the Bayan Mahaba segment is the nursery for cacao serving the beneficiaries for the cacao production program initiated by the LGU with the support form the government and an international chocolate making company.

Figure C3. Geo-tagging of abaca and other processing centers

vii. Poverty Incidence

Marihatag is a very poor municipality as indicated by the poverty incidence based on the proxy means test. In all barangays in the municipality, the poverty incidence is more than fifty percent. It is even more pronounced in the barangays in the RIA. In Bayan, the incidence of poverty is about 83.32 percent for 236 total number of households, 72.76 percent for 124 households in Mahaba o and in San Isidro, the poverty incidence is 77.11 affecting 214 households.

D. Market Analyses

i. Supply Side

The total length of roads within the Road Influence Area is about 17.00 kilometers (Table D1). Across the Barangays affected by the proposed segment, all roads were constructed with only gravel materials. Mahaba has the longest road network with a total of about 10.90 gravel roads. Both Bayan and San Isidro have about 3.20 and 2.90 kilometers of gravel road networks, respectively.

The existing road segment connecting Bayan, Mahaba and San Isidro is an all-weather gravel road. The route to San Isidro could be shorter via Mararag and San Pedro but the unpassable bridge in that road segment prohibits commuters to San Isidro from using that path. In the Bayan-Mahaba-San Isidro segment, there are two existing bridges: Tulay ng Pangulo with an estimated span of about 24 linear meters and RCDG bridge with an estimated span of roughly 18 linear meters.

ii.Demand Side

Based on a two-day average of the tally of all vehicles passing through the proposed road segment, the modal type of vehicle entering the section is motorcycle either as personal service vehicle or as habal-habal. The total number of motorcycle passing through the section was 393; 265 as personal service vehicle and 128 as habal-habal. The total number of passenger was estimated at about 778 and about 208 cargo items.

Cargoes are either transported by habal-habal, trucks or jeeps. It can be noticed that only few jeepneys and trucks serve the area (less than 3%). This supports the claim that in the current set-up, transporting the goods is costlier (by habal-habal). When the road becomes operational, there is a projected increase in cargo-loaded vehicles by two-fold. Consolidators and traders are expected to use more fuel-efficient vehicles and collection point is expected to relocate in the upland farm if there is access road in the area.

a. Generated Traffic Volume

Generated traffic volume includes the current road use in addition to the average growth of the number of vehicle. The growth in number of vehicle is assumed to be 2.4% every 5 years. This growth in vehicle use is attributed to population growth and an increased travel demand of the populace due to decreased travel time. Aside from the generated traffic volume, the total traffic volume will also be increased by the addition of Diverted/Attracted Traffic.

b. Diverted/Attracted Traffic

The current mode of transporting abaca fiber to the consolidator is by the use of habal-habal with wings. With only a capacity of 300 kg, the current trips generated from these is quite high. With the realization of the project, this number is not expected to reduce. Although there will be added trip generated by jeeps and trucks, the switching modes is less likely in the next 2 years because the trucks and jeeps only serve the consolidators.

There is still available potential are for crop farming in the area. The road network will help to attract investors to do farming in the area. Moreover, the increased farming activity in the area will generate a rise in vehicle demand due to increased volume of farm produce. Consolidators in the community are also expected to transfer their collection station nearer the farms.

E. Technical Analysis

i. Horizontal Road Alignment Analysis

The proposed FMR starts at station 2 + 852, at the Buli, Bayan-National Highway Junction, Bayan, Marihatag, Surigao del Sur. It runs west from Buli to Brgy. San Isidro community where the existing road splits in two paths. The proposed road will follow the south route from San Isidro community all the way west towards the barangay of Mahaba. The road will run northward hence, traversing the Marihatag River and reaching Sitio San Roque and will follow the east-northeast direction and end in the junction of another proposed road segment of Mararag-San Pedro-San Isidro FMR.

Figure E1. Bayan - San Isidro - Mahaba route in blue and Buli-Tagbilaong (San Isidro) in red.

The proposed segment will include two (2) existing bridges and four (4) bridges to be constructed. The bridges to be constructed will traverse Marihatag River and several of its tributaries. The bridges are to be construction at Sta 13 + 866 over Marihatag River, Sta 14 + 207, Sta 17 + 403, and Sta 18 + 185. This will also include construction of four (4) box culverts of varying sizes to accommodate water crossing from small creeks.

The road will be five (5) meters wide with provision of drainage on any of the side as necessary in the area as discussed in the preceding section.

ii. Vertical Road Alignment Analysis

The terrain starts flat from the starting point up to the end of San Isidro community, where it starts to become rolling and undulating. The terrain will follow a rolling profile until it reaches the community of Brgy. Mahaba. From Brgy. Mahaba until it ends in Tagbilaong, the profile is generally hummocky to rolling.

iii. Drainage/Hydraulic Analysis

The twelve-year rainfall data from Hinatuan, Surigao del Sur was used as the primary data for calculation of drainage requirements. Based from Table E1 the rainfall monthly total ranges from 42.1mm to 1596.4mm. The climate in Surigao del Sur is either Type 2 or Type 4 with no pronounced dry season. Peak month is recorded in January while the low month is observed during September.Table E1. Twelve-year rainfall data from Hinatuan, Surigao del Sur

To accommodate the volume of water in the catchment area, the proposed segment of the road will have provision for drainage canal. This is to protect the subsoil surface from being infiltrated by unnecessary water. Currently, rainfall runoff is only drained through natural drainage from porous soil surface and side ditches of the road. Table E2 summarizes the proposed hydraulic structures for the segment.

iv. Soil and Foundation Analysis

Visual soil investigation reveals a clayey type of soil with granular gravel on top up to Sitio San Roque. The soil type after Sitio San Roque is generally clayey for 2 kilometers and then clayey with granular gravel up to the end of the road segment. A detailed investigation of soil sample is recommended to be conducted by the PEO for further analysis.

v. Proposed Sources and Location of Borrow Pits, Quarries and Construction Materials

The main quarry source for the segment is Marihatag River, Mahaba, Marihatag, SDS. Source of construction materials such as cement and steel bars is from Tandag City, SDS. Table E3 summarizes the sources of material for the proposed road segment.Table E3.

Based on the summary table, presented in Table E4c, the Bayan Mahaba San Isidro FMR Segment has a total length of 16.67 km amounting to Php 221,660,000.00 including the construction of the four new bridges.

F. Operational Analysis

The proposed sub-project to construct the 13.3 kilometer concrete road through Bayan, Mahaba and San Isidro will be implemented by the Provincial Government. Specifically, the project will be implemented through the Provincial Project Management Implementing Unit (PPMIU) within the framework of the Intensified Building Up and Logistics for Development (I-BUILD) and under the direct control of the Provincial Engineering Office.

Through a series of consultations with the local government executives (LCEs), the municipal development officer (MPDO), the Municipal Agriculture Officer (MAO) as well as some member of the Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs), Peoples Organizations (POs) and farmer-representatives, the project site was identified. The process was done within the broader framework of the Provincial Commodity Investment Plan (PCIP).

Further, the prioritization of the specific commodity was done through the Expanded Vulnerability and Suitability Analysis (E-VSA). This criterion was supplemented by other parameters including the role of the commodity in the value chain, proportion of area planted, volume of production, an poverty incidence. This identification process was validated by Provincial Support Office of the Philippine Rural Development Project (PSO-PRDP) and the Regional Project Coordinating Office of PRDP and in consultation with the PPMIU.

Based on the results of the prioritization process, the survey was conducted by the PPMIU through the Provincial Engineering Office including the hydrologic and geologic test, detailed engineering design and program of works. At the same time, the Regional Office of the Department of Agriculture with the support of the Provincial and the Municipal Agricultural Office conducted geo-tagging. A team of experts was engaged to conduct the feasibility of the sub-project with the following components: technical, social, environmental, and economic.

The Municipal Engineering Office and the Provincial Engineering Office will do project maintenance jointly. While immediate and minor maintenance work can be done independently by the municipal engineering office, major repairs will have to be done with the support of the provincial engineering office.Figure F. Organizational chart for operations

G. Social Analysis

i. Project Beneficiaries

The target beneficiaries of the proposed farm-to-market road are the residents engaged in abaca, coconut, and rice production of Barangays Bayan, San Isidro and Mahaba. The total population number of beneficiaries is 4,969 (Male- 2,542 and Female- 2,427).

The public consultation was coursed through the chairpersons of the concerned barangays. This was held last 8 January 2015 at attended by 38 people (Male- 25 and Female 13) (please refer to Annex G1). The consultation serves as a venue for the residents to be heard of their concerns and to inform the local government unit of their stance about the project.

Overall, the residents have expressed their support and commitment to the project. The major concerns shared by the residents during the consultation are as follows:

a. A resident reported that in Barangay Mahaba there will be few houses that will obstruct the proposed arm-to-market road.

The facilitator explained that before the construction the local government unit would discuss with the concerned farmers on how the affected households will be compensated. Mayor Alan Pelenio, who was again present during the consultation, seconded the facilitators response.

b. There will also be coconut trees and other crops that will be affected once the construction will start. The question is will the farmers will receive compensation?

As with the earlier public consultation, the response was that there will be a discussion between the affected households and the municipal government for compensation.

c. If the project will be approved, will it continue even if the current Mayor will no longer be the Mayor in 2016?

The facilitator explained that once the project is approved, it will continue to be implemented regardless of who the Mayor will be. Mayor Alan Pelenio added that the project will be implemented by the Provincial Government that will provide the equity of PhP80 million.

ii. Indigenous Cultural Community/Indigenous Peoples (ICC/IP)

The datus together with the other Manobos joined the consultation in the barangay. Similar with the other residents of barangay, they have expressed their support and commitment for the realization of the project.

A datu from Sitio San Roque who joined the Engineering Team of the Municipality, which performed the survey for two weeks informed the group that his house and the shed will be affected by the farm-to-market road. He is, however, willing to move his house and shed.

iii. Site and Right-of-Way AcquisitionThe proposed site is concreting of existing barangay road with a total length of 17 kilometers. A public consultation was held and attended by 38 residents of the barangay. The SES team representative discussed the proposed project and emphasized the residents support is needed especially the execution of deed of donations/waiver of rights by the affected area. The response of the residents was very positive, since portion of the road exists, though not in good condition, they are very willing to move their house or have their trees cut.

Two weeks before the consultation, a Survey Team conducted the actual measurements of areas affected by the project. The survey team is still finalizing the list of households, other infrastructure, and crops and trees that might be affected because of the road construction.

iv. Damage to Standing Crops, Houses and/or Properties

There will be few houses and one shed that will be affected by the road right of way. There will also be coconut and forest trees that will be affected. This is due to that fact that the road is partly being used for a long time while portion is just a trail and another portion was an old logging road.

v. Physical Displacement of PersonsMajority of the persons living within the proposed sub-project influence area are farmers. Nearly all of them have their permanent dwelling in the area. Few houses in Barangay Mahaba and one in Sitio San Roque will be affected but as discussed earlier discussions with the owners will be held before the construction start.vi. Economic Displacement of Persons Initial results of the survey and as discussed during the public consultation, the construction of the farm-to-market road will not displace the economic activities of the residents. Those who attended the consultation believe that there will be more economic activities since the transportation of inputs as well the agricultural production would be faster and the perceived cheaper transportation cost will encourage more farmers to directly market their produce in the barangay for higher price.

H. Environmental Analyses

i. Natural Habitat

The site of the proposed Bayan San Isidro Mahaba FMR with bridge component is within A & D lands and will not traverse any declared forest area or any protected area for flora and fauna. The FMR project will traverse Marihatag River and Cagtoog River and may have a temporary erosion and sedimentation impact during construction. Based on the land use map (Fig. H1), lands within the road influence area (RIA) are planted to crops such as falcata, abaca, coconut, rice, fruit trees, banana, and corn. About 100 trees (50% of which is coconut and the other half, fruit trees) along the roadside will be affected by the proposed FMR project. Other vegetation growing along the roadside that may be affected includes grass, abaca, bananas, and falcate. There are no reported wildlife or endangered species seen within the RIA.

Figure H1. General land use map of Municipality of Marihatagii. Physical/Cultural Resources

There are no known physical or cultural sites that will be affected by the proposed FMR. A few houses and a drying shed located along the proposed FMR construction/rehabilitation/concreting may be affected.

iii. Terrain, Soil Types and Rainfall

The terrain of the proposed project site varies from 0 to18 percent slope in Barangays Bayan and San Isidro and from 18 to 50 percent in Mahaba as indicated in Fig. H2 (municipal slope map).

Figure H2. Slope map of Municipality of Marihatag

The proposed project site and its influence area has a clayey soil type, in particular, the Matho clay and Bantog clay, which are prone to rain-induced erosion/landslide posing risks to accidents to commuters as well as potential damages to crops, particularly during heavy rainy days.

Surigao del Sur has a Type 2 or 4 climate with no pronounced wet season. Marihatag has at least 5 to 12 rainy days per month from November to May and at least 4 days the rest of the year. Fig H3 shows the average monthly rainfall days and precipitation in Marihatag based on 2000-2012 data (Source: http://www.worldweatheronline.com/Marihatag-weather-averages/Surigao-Del-Sur/PH.aspx).

Figure H3. Average monthly rainfall days and precipitation in Marihatag

The general land use suitability map, given the terrain, soil type and rainfall pattern in the area of influence of the proposed project is shown in Figure H4. Bayan has the highest land area within the RIA planted to rice, confirming its suitability for rice production. Mahaba, with a slope varying from 18-50% is suited for production forest, and is evidenced by the estimated 2,134 ha planted to falcata, 541 ha to abaca, and 391 ha to coconut. San Isidro is suited to plantation forest as evidenced by the presence of 826 ha of falcate, 350 ha of abaca, and 311 ha of coconut. The proposed construction/rehabilitation/concreting of Bayan - San Isidro - Mahaba FMR is expected to facilitate the production, transport, marketing and future expansion of these production areas.

Figure H4. General land use suitability map of Municipality of Marihatag

iv. Hazard/Risk Assessment

Maps of areas susceptible to flood and rain- and earthquake induced landslide in the Municipality of Marihatag were generated based on the assessment and mapping conducted by the Mines and Geosciences Bureau (MGB) in Region XIII (Figures H5 to H7; MGB-RXIII, 2013). Areas with potential for flooding and erosion/landslide in the road influence area are highlighted below. Annex G2 presents the Environmental Assessment and Management Plan summarizing these issues and other minor environmental issues together with proposed mitigation measures.

a. Flooding Potential

Based on MGBs assessment, Brgy. Bayan and part of San Isidro are susceptible to flooding. Puroks Kamansi and Nangka in Brgy. Bayan are highly susceptible to flooding (i.e., likely to experience flood heights greater than 1.0 meter and/or flooding of more than three days) due to overflows of the Marihatag River. Purok Mangga in Brgy. Bayan is also susceptible to moderate flooding particularly those areas near the Kandiisan Creek and Marihatag River. In Brgy. Mahaba, only Puroks San Roque and Palompon, are highly susceptible to flashfloods. Portions of Purok Loknodon in Brgy. Mahaba which are located near Marihatag River are also prone to flashflood.

Figure H5. Flood map of Municipality of Marihatagb. Landslide Potential

Based on the MGB assessment, within Brgy. Bayan, Puroks Avocado and Bayabas have generally low landslide susceptibility rating with moderate susceptibility in portions near the slope. Purok Durian in Brgy. Bayan also has a low susceptibility to landslide with high portions prone to rockfall. In San Isidro, two out its six Puroks are assessed as moderately susceptible while the rest have low susceptibility to landslide. In Brgy. Mahaba, areas with high susceptibility to landslides include Puroks Rambutan, Kalamanse, Lansones, and Palonpon. For Puroks San Roque and Locnodon, their susceptibility to landslides range from low to moderate. Landslides maybe caused by heavy rains or earthquakes (Figures H6 and H7).

c. Mitigation Measures

For the proposed mitigation measures to minimize the potential for soil erosion/landslide and flooding for the proposed construction/rehabilitation/concreting of Bayan - San Isidro - Mahaba, please see Environmnetal Impact Mapping (Annex G2).

v. Status of Environmental Clearance IEE

The necessary environmental clearance required for the proposed project will be processed by the Municipal Environmental and Natural Resources Officer.

vi. Environmental Issues and Mitigation Measures

Please see Annex G2, which summarizes the environmental issues and mitigation measures/Environmental Management Plan following the Department of Agricultures Template for Farm-to-Market Roads.I. Financial Analyses

i. Project InvestmentsThe total investment requirement for the 16.67 kilometer proposed farm to market road along Bayan Mahaba - San Isidro route in Marihatag, Surigao del Sur is about PhP 221,660,000.00. The bulk of the project expense is accounted for by the cost of materials at PhP 114.9 Million. Direct cost is about PhP 35 Million and Overhead plus contractors profit is roughly PhP 41.4 Million. Taxes and other engineering design expenditures account for PhP 22 Million.

Yearly maintenance cost is pegged at PhP 28,908 per kilometer for concrete Portland Cement Concrete Pavement (PCCP). Fixed costs including vegetation control, cleaning and repair of culverts, and clearing side ditches account for PhP 19,280.00 and replacement of climatic loss of gravel is about PhP 9,628. Hence, the annual maintenance cost of the road segment is about PhP 353,334.00.

ii. Economic Benefits a. Vehicle Operating Cost (VOC) Savings

The argument behind savings in vehicle operating cost (VOC) is fairly straightforward. Any incremental improvement in road condition will reduce operating cost of any vehicle passing through the road segment.

Based on the average of a two-day tally of vehicular traffic in the road segment, the savings on vehicle operating cost were estimated for motorcycles, cars and trucks (See Table xx). The total yearly saving on vehicle operating costs was estimated at PhP 19,171,808.00 (See Annex Table I4). The bulk of this savings is for motorcycles used as habal-habal, which was roughly PhP 10,621,663.00. The remainder was distributed between cars and trucks. The traffic of both types of vehicles was fairly infrequent, ostensibly due to the road conditions.

b. Savings in Output and Input Hauling

Depending on the weather condition the cost of transporting farm products to the market ranges from 2 to 6 pesos per kilogram. The huge benefit after the concreting of the road segment will be the reduction in the cost of transporting farm output. Based on the major crops produced in the RIA such as abaca, coconut, and rice, the estimated annual savings in hauling output is about PhP 6.1 Million (Annex Table I5). The largest amount of savings is from rice which was estimated at PhP 3.8 Million, for copra, the saving is PhP 1.01 Million. For abaca, the savings was estimated at PhP1.3 Million.

Benefits are also derived from hauling inputs such as fertilizers and other inputs for the major crops grown in the RIA. For the three major crops, the annual savings from hauling farm inputs was PhP 129,722. Similarly, the highest saving was drawn form rice inputs, which was estimated at PhP 94,200. Yearly savings from hauling inputs for abaca production was PhP 29,659 and for hauling coconut inputs, the annual savings was PhP5,862.

c. Benefits from Time Saved

Improvements in road conditions also benefits the population within the RIA in terms of the travel time saved. Monetizing the value of time allows the analyses to incorporate this saving into the overall benefits of the project. Based on the current population and on the assumption that there a certain proportion of the population that is active and further, that there is still a proportion of the active population that travels, the estimated value of time saved traveling an improved road system was about PhP 1.04 Million annually (Annex Table I6).

d. Expansion of Productive Lands

One of the main constraints to increasing agricultural production in the countryside is poor road infrastructures. Hence, the concreting of the proposed road segment will increase the land utilization in terms of both intensity and expansion of cultivated lands. In the RIA, the dominant crop being planted by the population is Abaca. Consequently, one of the benefits identified is the expansion of lands palanted to abaca. Annex Table I7 shows the estimated expansion and the benefits of the increases in production. Assuming a benchmark of 300 hectares, a five percent yearly increase in area planted, a benchmark of PhP 42 per kilogram of raw abaca fiber (S1), and a ten percent yearly increase in the price of abaca, the estimated benefits range from PhP 2.1 Million in the first year to about a Billion pesos in the 20th year.

e. Benefits in Reduced Post Harvest Losses

Road conditions also affects the post- harvest losses of the farmers produce: the better is the road condition, the lower is the post-harvest losses. Based on the production of the three major crops planted in the RIA and on the assumption that the reduction in post-harvest losses is about one percent, the estimated annual benefit from the reduction of post-harvest losses is about PhP 16.3 Million (Annex Table I8).iii. Economic Feasibility

Discounting the stream of benefits against the stream of costs for twenty years, the construction of the 16.67 kilometers of road along Bayan - San Isidro - Mahaba at a cost of about PhP 221 Million could generate an Economic Internal rate of return of about 24.75 percent and a Benefit cost ratio of about 2.65.

iv. Sensitivity Analysis

The returns to any investment will have to be evaluated on how sensitive the project is towards exogenous fluctuations on key critical parameters. The returns will not be very sensitive to changes in cost because the expenditure is done in the beginning and that cost variabilities can be avoided with proper design. The viability of the project will also depend upon the timely realization of the project gains and this is also ensured with proper planning. Hence,, conventional sensitivity analyses is done on the critical exogenous variables, which are beyond the control of project planning and management. This would involve economic variables such as factor and product prices.

Based upon the nature of the RIA and the focal enterprise, which is abaca production, the economic viability of the project would be sensitive to the difference between the pre project price of transporting produce from the RIA to the marker and the projected transport cost post project completion as well as the farm gate price of abaca in the context of the expansion area for abaca production. Table I2 shows the sensitivity of the EIRR to the changes in the pre-project cost of transporting products from the farm to the market and the price of the farm gate price of abaca fiber. If the cost of hauling goes to as low as PhP 4 and at the same time the price of abaca fiber goes as low as PhP 20, then the EIRR goes down to 20.33. Conversely, if the price of abaca fiber goes up to as high as PhP 70 and at the same time the cost of hauling goes as high as PhP 12, then the EIRR goes up to about 30.31.

Similarly, the BC ratio is subjected to sensitivity analyses with respect to changes in the cost of hauling farm produce to the central business district and the price of abaca fiber. If the cost of hauling goes to as low as PhP 4 and at the same time the price of abaca fiber goes as low as PhP 20, then the BCR goes down to 1.80. Conversely, if the price of abaca fiber goes up to as high as PhP 70 and at the same time the cost of hauling goes as high as PhP 12, then the EIRR goes up to about 4.06.

J. Conclusions and Recommendation

i. ConclusionsThese results show that constructing the road segment across Bayan, San Isidro and Mahaba is technically, socially, environmentally and economically feasible.

ii. Recommendation

It is therefore recommended that construction of the proposed road project will be initiated as soon as possible. It is noted, that the feasible scenario is also anchored on the assumption that efforts will have to be done on the part of the other government agencies like the Department of Agriculture, LGU and the other development agencies of government to converge in the area to promote the expansion of abaca production which has been validated to be suitable and are acceptable to the farmers in the RIA.
