WHEREAS, Section 8, Title II and Section 13, Title III of P.D. 1308: the "Law Regulating the Environmental Planning Profession of the Philippines" empowers the Board to register an environmental planner without passing a licensure examination, provided he meet the qualifications therefor and register within one (1) year from the constitution of the first board;

WHEREAS, from the constitution of the first Board on June 24, 1993, till the lapse of one (1) year not a single applicant has registered; and

NOW, THEREFORE, by virtue of its quasi-legislative power under Section 8, (L) of P.D. No. 1308, the Board hereby RESOLVED, as it now so RESOLVES, to allow the registration of environmental planners in the light of the provisions in Section 13, Title III of P.D. No. 1308 and the Rules and Guidelines on such registration promulgated by the Board within one (1) year from the effectivity of the herein resolution.

FURTHER RESOLVED, to accept applications that shall be filed not later than ten (10) months from the effectivity of the herein resolution.

FURTHERMORE, RESOLVED, that this resolution upon approval by the Commission shall be effective after fifteen (15) days following its publication in the Official Gazette or any newspaper of general circulation, whichever is earlier.
