[ DENR ADMINISTRATIVE ORDER NO. 83, November 22, 1990 ]

LIFTING OF THE BAN ON THE EXTRACTION OF SAND AND GRAVEL, QUARRYING AND OTHER RELATED SURFACE MINING ACTIVITIES ALONG BUED RIVER AND KENNON ROAD



WHEREAS, DENR Administrative Order No. 03 dated January 4, 1989 imposed a ban on the extraction of sand and gravel, quarrying and other related surface mining activities along Bued River and Kennon Road particularly within the stretch covered by KM Post 241 (Camp 7, Baguio City) and KM Post 222 (Camp 3, Tuba, Benguet);

WHEREAS, the July 16, 1990 earthquake and the succeeding typhoons that hit the region devastated major portions of Kennon Road with massive landslides resulting in the deposition of huge quantities of rock boulders, sand and gravel along the road and Bued River;

WHEREAS, in order to facilitate the clearing of Kennon Road and correspondingly the Bued River of the debris at the same time allow the use of the material in the on-going reconstruction of Baguio City and the adjoining areas damaged by the earthquake;

THEREFORE, it is hereby resolved that DENR Administrative Order No. 03, Series of 1989 be lifted until Kennon Road shall have been cleared and totally repaired.  The barring down of boulders and quarrying activities, however, shall remain to be banned under this Order.

This Order takes effect immediately.

Adopted: 22 Nov. 1990
