<strong>Management</strong>’s Comments<br />
record was attended by personnel<br />
from the Mayor’s Office of the<br />
Municipality of Bagabag in the<br />
persons of Mr. Colcol and Mr. Nivial,<br />
SB Kagawad Revelita L. Jallorina and<br />
the Barangay Council of Baretbet,<br />
Bagabag headed by its Barangay<br />
Captain, Honorable Julie Santiago.<br />
The LGU representatives from<br />
Municipality of Quezon were not able<br />
to attend, however, CENRO<br />
Bayombong and members of the P.O.<br />
conducted constant coordination with<br />
them regarding the CBFM Project.<br />
Although our CENRO Office failed to<br />
furnish the Provincial Government a<br />
copy of the CBFMA awarded to the<br />
DMADAI the Office had a regular<br />
coordination with the ENRO which is<br />
under the Office of the Provincial<br />
Governor. Please take note also that<br />
the CBFMA had been notarized by<br />
Atty. Jose V. Gambito now the Vice-<br />
Governor of the Province.<br />
The mining issue started when this<br />
Office received a resolution from the<br />
P.O. embodying a petition for the<br />
discontinuance of the mining<br />
operation of the KMAI within their<br />
CBFMA area at Sitio Burburnay,<br />
Bonifacio, Quezon, Nueva Vizcaya….<br />
The Office issued Memo in the<br />
conduct of investigation and found out<br />
that the Provincial Government issued<br />
to Kablaaw Manganese Association,<br />
Inc. (KMAI), an organization with no<br />
records in the Office, a special permit<br />
to haul/dispose manganese ore at<br />
Burburnay, Bonifacio, Quezon, Nueva<br />
Vizcaya and valid from December 9,<br />
2004 to February 6, 2005…. Result of<br />
Investigation .<br />
Team’s Rejoinder<br />
representatives were alledgedly<br />
present during CBFM Agreement<br />
awarding ceremony. Besides, mere<br />
presence in the ceremony would not<br />
provide adequate information on the<br />
privileges and responsibilites of both<br />
parties including the scope and<br />
coverage of the Agreement.<br />
The extent of alleged coordination<br />
between CENRO and ENRO was not<br />
disclosed in the comments. Moreover,<br />
the issuance of the mining permit by<br />
the Provincial Government to a PO<br />
other than the CBFMA holder is a<br />
manifestation of inadequate, if not<br />
total absence of coordination.<br />
It would appear then that the issuance<br />
of CBFMA is not an assurance that<br />
the POs would have the sole right over<br />
the area. This only manifests that<br />
CBFMA could not be enforced<br />
without the support and coordination<br />
of the concerned LGUs.<br />
