The men and women of the Municipal Environment and Natural Resources Office recently underwent an intensive evaluation process, meticulously validating the plans, programs, and accomplishments they have undertaken in the realm of environmental governance.
This comprehensive assessment aimed to review their efforts in protecting and managing natural resources, ensuring compliance with environmental policies, and promoting sustainable development within the community. By carefully scrutinizing each initiative on Resource Management, Waste Management and Pollution Control, Biodiversity Conservation, Wetlands and Water Management, and Parks and Green Spaces, the team sought not only to measure past achievements but also to identify areas for improvement and to strategize future actions that will enhance their effectiveness in safeguarding the environment.
The validators were DENR CENRO Guimbal Ms. Jennica Valenzuela; EMB SWM Mr. Sherwin Cataluna; EMB WQMA Engr. Catherine Moleta; DILG representative Ms. Krizza Jane Marie Nillos; and ICODE representative Mary Jane Homena.
The validation underscores the office’s commitment to transparency, accountability, and continuous progress in addressing environmental challenges at the local level.
