Water used for agriculture, irrigation, and livestock watering were reclassified
from Class D to Class C
Class C, Class D, and Class SD no longer contains the industrial water supply
Toxic and Other Deleterious Substances (for the Protection of Public Health)
Toxic and Other Deleterious Substances (for the Protection of Public Health)
Secondary Parameters
For DAO 2016-08, guidelines for monitoring groundwater quality are included
DAO 35-90 applies to all industrial and municipal wastewater effluents with a
note that states that the effluent standards apply to industrial manufacturing
plants and municipal treatment plants discharging more than thirty (30) cubic
meters per day.
Toxic and Other Deleterious Substance (Maximum Limits for the Protection of
Public Health)
For DAO 2016-08, under the GES the parameters are categorized as:
Physical-Chemical
Metals
Organics
Microbiological
Ammonia as NH3-N
Sulfate
Nickel
Benzene
Boron
Barium
Zinc
Toluene
Fluoride
Iron
Benzo(a)pyrene
Ethylbenzene
Selenium
Manganese
Trichloroethylene
Xylenes
The following parameters were modified in the way they are expressed:
Phenol & Phenolic Substances Clarified to be the sum of 2-chlorophenol, 2,4dichlorophenol, and 2,4,6-trichlorophenol
After the update with the 2007 PNSDW, the WQG values became more
stringent
Since the WQG values are used to derived the GES values, the GES values
became more stringent as well
DAO 34-90
The number of industries have already increased to about 100 and significant
parameters have been identified for each industry as a result of the Significant
Effluent Quality Parameters per Sector in the WQG and GES being based on
the Philippine Standard Industrial Classification (2009)
Additional sections were added in the WQG and GES and these are as follows:
Section 8.0 Modification of WQG and GES As long as there is a clear and
scientifically valid evidence having a probative value prove to that the desired
modification is consistent with RA 9275, any modification can be requested and
must be provided with its IRR.
Section 10.0 Grace Period If values for the GES have become stringent
compared to the values in DAO 35-90 or if new significant effluent quality
parameters were identified, a grace period of not more than 5 years may be
given.
