Subproject Completion Report: Ubay-Mabini –Alicia Watershed Rehabilitation Subproject

Ubay-Mabini –Alicia Watershed Rehabilitation Subproject is located in the municipalities of Ubay, Mabini and Alicia, Bohol. This is a part of the most important watershed in the province of Bohol. It provides water supply for the domestic needs of the nearby municipalities and its barangays and supports two dam structures of the National Irrigation Administration. These two dams supports the irrigation needs of thousands of hectares of rice fields downstream.

The people’s organizations, Ubay Federated Tree Planters Association Inc, Mabini Reforestation Association Inc. and Alicia Farmers Tree Planters Association Inc. were organized by the Argao Mountain Climbers Assn. Inc. from Sept. 1997 to Dec. 1999. Under the Comprehensive Site Development contract, the PO’s rehabilitated a total of 1,312 hectares of forest plantations with weighted average survival rate of 82.63%.

To improve the accessibility of the barangay residents and their farm products to the town proper, Val Anthony Construction was contracted to rehabilitate 3.816 kilometers of farm- to-market road.

The project has uplifted the socio economic condition of the local communities though the wages and other benefits they derived from the project. They participated in plantation establishment, construction of infrastructure and livelihood projects. The benefits that they were able to get are very evident from the house improvements, furniture’s/ appliances acquisitions and capabilities to send their children to schools.
