a right to have a clean water




Due to the fast rising development in urban areas, our natural resources on the other hand is nearly fast approaching to its end.

The materials being used in urban development are coming from nature and too much demand of raw materials from nature depletes our resources.



It's a good thing that the Department of Environment and Natural Resources has been designating Water Quality Management Area to protect bodies of water from further damage from development activities.


One of the places under this program is the 35-kilometer Taguibo River in Agusan del Norte



The Taguibo River is a source of water supply for Butuan City and nearby towns, and plays a crucial role in local livelihood since it provides water for agricultural production.

The river also serves as principal sustaining resource to aquaculture in the area, and supports food production and industry in its jurisdiction.
