San Ildefonso is a municipality in the province of Bulacan, Philippines. According to the 2010
census, it has a population of 95,000 inhabitants.
With the continuous expansion of Metro Manila, the municipality is now part of Manila's built
up area which makes San Ildefonso it's northernmost part.
July 23, 2013, an entertainment and supermarket complex was opened where the old public
market used to stand. This made San Ildefonso the "Biglangbukas, Ubosagad" of Bulacan.
History
Long before the arrival of the Spaniards in the Philippines, the town of San Ildefonso was known
as Bulak. The early inhabitants called this town as such because of the abundant "kapok" trees
(Bulak in vernacular) growing on the hill where the town proper is now situated.
Bulak was then a barrio of San Rafael. There were very few inhabitants numbering only about
3,000. The early inhabitants were people from neighboring towns and provinces that preferred to
settle in this place because of the good prospect of agriculture.
When the Spaniards came, the name Bulak was changed to Hacienda San Juan de Dios because
her 15,500 hectares of grazing and farming grounds were claimed by the friars. The people were
told to pay tribute. Proceeds from the rentals were used to finance the operation of the San Juan
de Dios Hospital in Manila. The Spanish friars though antagonistic towards the Filipinos, could
not help admiring the beauty of the numerous natural scenarios God bestowed on the town.
Because of their admiration, they changed the name Hacienda de San Juan de Dios to a more
fitting one Hacienda Buenavista, a Spanish word which means beautiful scenery.
As the population grew, a chapel was constructed under the parochial jurisdiction of San Rafael.
In 1809, Father Juan dela Rosa was named the first Filipino priest of the town. He held such
position up to 1911. He was responsible for changing the Bulak to San Ildefonso in honor of
Alfonso XII, then the King of Spain and San Ildefonso, its Patron Saint. By the time it was given
this name, a tribunal was created finally making it a town in 1877. Between the periods 1905-
1906, San Ildefonso was merged with San Miguel due to its low income and inability to finance
its expenditures in operating the local government.

As year went by, more and more people were induced to live in the town. The growth of
population promoted the increase of income. The town became capable of meeting its expenses
so it consequently ceased being a barrio of San Miguel and became once again an independent
town.

5.2.3 GEOGRAPHY AND LAND RESOURCES:
The province of Bulacan has a total land area of 262, 500 has or 14% of the entire land area of
the entire region or the Central Luzon. The municipality of Dona Remedios Trinidad has the
biggest land area with 93,928 has. Bulacan is accessible from the National Capital Region or
Metro Manila through two major road networks which are the North Luzon Expressway (NLEX)
and MacArthur Highway. The province is within the development area being close to Metro
Manila and the fastest growing area in the region because it is located within the W-Growth
Corregidor and within the Super Region designated by the government. It is bounded on the
north by the province of Nueva Ecija, on the east by Aurora and Quezon, on the west by
Pampanga on the southeast by Rizal, and on the southwest by Manila Bay.
The existing land uses of Bulacan are composed of six major categories and the largest user of
Bulacan’s land resources is the agricultural sector particularly those involving the cultivation of

lands for production purposes. Covering a land area of 96,547 hectares or close to 37 percent of
the total land area of the province, the agricultural lands almost cover the western half of
Bulacan, thus practically dividing the province into two equal parts with the western portion of
the province specifically east of the municipality of San Miguel and down to the boundaries
between the city of San Jose Del Monte and municipality of Sta. Maria.
These lands are mostly devoted to the cultivation of palay, both irrigated and rain fed. Irrigated
palay areas are concentrated in the western portion of the agricultural lands. With irrigation
water provided by the National Irrigation Administration (NIA) from Angat River, farmers have
the luxury of having two to three cropping per year barring the negative impacts of storms and
typhoons. In some areas where infrastructure of NIA is yet to be extended, communal irrigation
systems have been put in place by the government.
On the eastern part of the agricultural lands are the rain fed areas, which are also being used for
palay production during rainy season. For the rest of the year, these lands are either used for
vegetable farming or for corn production. The other forms of agricultural activities in the
province, which also takes up a relatively large amount of land, are the fishpond areas. Found on
southwest part of the province, fishpond areas take up about 16,968 hectares or a little over 6
percent of the province of Bulacan.
In 1995, the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR) came up with a Resource and
Ecological Assessment of the Manila Bay area and this includes the coastal areas of Bulacan.
According to the report, the coastal areas of Bulacan have the largest aqua-cultural activities in
the entire stretch of Manila Bay area and this is the reason why Bulacan is considered as one of
the major producers of aqua-cultured fish varieties like bangus and prawns. In fact, from the
municipality of Meycauayan up to Hagonoy, one of the major economic activities centered on
aqua-culture which are often run by corporations or big time businessmen. The study also noted
some structures that are illegal or unregistered. Actual visit in the area indicate that there are
some fishponds, which encroached on waterways and/or constructed more than what is provided
for in the lease agreement.
On the eastern portion of the agricultural areas is a long band of the kinds that connects the
northern and southern areas of the province. Covered mostly with grasses and shrubs, these lands
have a total land area of close to sixty thousand has. Or 22% of the total provincial land area,
apparently the third largest land use category in the province. There may be spots or isolated
cases wherein agricultural activities can be observed but in general, these areas are characterized
with rolling and quite steep topography that constraints the practice of land cultivation.
Further eastward is also a long band but much wider than the grassland areas. This particular
feature of the provincial land use structure represents the forested part of Bulacan. With a total

land area of 75,731 has. or 28% of the provincial total, these areas are mostly covered with
residual or secondary growth forests.
In the DENR’s Land Classification Map, the forested areas consist of two major watersheds,
namely the Angat Watershed Metro Water District which is covered under Proclamation No. 391
issued on April 30, 1968 and the Dona Remedios Trinidad-General Tinio Watershed Forest
Reserve set aside for watershed protection under Proclamation No. 230 of March 26, 1988. The
Angat Watershed is considered as one of the most important watershed in the country today. For
one, it is a main source of potable water as it provides the bulk of water supply to Metro Manila
residents and second, it also helps generate power for the Luzon grid. Based on the identified
land management, there are 8 identified land use types with the view of optimizing land
production and the protection of the environment. These are:
1. Agro-forestry
2. Protection forest
3. Production forest
4. Rain fed mixed farming
5. Urban expansion areas
6. Diversified crops
7. Irrigated rice paddy, and
8. Aqua-culture
5.2.5 METEOROLOGY
The baseline information on the climatology of Bulacan is derived from Cabanatuan, Nueva
Ecija which is the nearest synoptic station of PAG-ASA north of the province. The present study
nonetheless provides additional Climatological Normals from Science Garden in Quezon City
and from Port Area in Manila as the basis for describing the climate in Bulacan. There are no
Climatological distinctions between places separated only by tens of kilometer distance.
5.2.5.1 The Port of Manila Synoptic Station
Based on the Climatological Normals of a synoptic station in Port Area, Manila the climate of
Bulacan can be described under Type I of the Modified Corona’s Classification. This type of
climate is characterized by two pronounced seasons. A much defined rainy season occurs in the
months of November to April.

The major air stream passing over the region are the southwest and northeast monsoon, which
are driven by differential heating between continents and ocean. The southwest monsoon is a
warm and moist air mass coming from the Indian Ocean which passes thru the area with a
southwesterly direction from June to October while the northeast monsoon usually brings cold
dry air in the months of December to February.
Another major air stream is the easterly (also called the trade winds) which dominate during the
transition period between the monsoons. Disturbances in these air masses (called easterly waves)
also bring considerate amount of rains during the transition months.
5.2.5.2 Tropical Cyclones
In the Philippines, the ave. cyclone passage is about 20 per year. In Manila, the ave. frequency of
cyclone passage is five in three years. These cyclones have greater frequencies in the months of
July, October, and November.
5.2.5.3 Rainfall
The atmospheric system which contributes to the annual rainfall in the country is the monsoons,
tropical cyclones, the oscillation of the Inter Tropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ), and the
easterly waves. Tropical cyclones which are most frequent in June to September bring very
intense rainfall over the area while the disturbances in the easterly cause some rainfall during
transition between the monsoon periods. The ITCZ contributes to the rainfall during the month
of June to July.
The wettest period occurs during the months of June to September with mean monthly rainfall
values ranging from 283.9 mm to 476.3 mm. August is the rainiest month while the driest month
is February. The driest period occurs to January to March with mean monthly rainfall values of
7.3 mm to 21.4mm.

5.2.5.4 Temperature and Humidity
The mean annual temperature in the area is 27.6 degrees to 29.5 degrees Celsius. The coldest
months are December and February with mean daily temperature ranging from 25.8 degrees to
26.3 degrees Celsius. The warmest months are April to June with values ranging from 28.7
degrees to 29.5 degrees Celsius.
The mean annual relative humidity at the province is 74%. It is highest in August with an ave. of
83% and the lowest in April with 64%. The relative humidity in the area is controlled by the
available moisture from evaporation of rainfall and by the variations in air temperature.
5.2.5.5 Surface Winds
The annual frequency distribution of surface winds is distributed in 8 compass directions except
in the northwest. A large percentage of the wind directions are mainly westerly and easterly. This
shows the effect of land sea breeze is very strong.
5.2.5.6 Frequency of Rainy Days and Thunderstorms
The annual average number of rainy days is 143. Data on mean monthly number of rainy days
show that the month July to September have the greatest frequency of rainy days with values
ranging from 20-22 day a month. The mean annual numbers of days during the thunderstorms is
14. The mean monthly thunderstorm days are 5 in June, 4 in September, 3 in May, 1 each
summer month due to thermal convection.
5.2.5.7 The Cabanatuan Synoptic Station
The Climatological Normals taken over a period of 34 years from 1961 to 1995 in Cabanatuan,
Nueva Ecija is consistent with that taken from Port Area, Manila. This station categorizes the
provinces to fall under Type I climate of Modified Corona’s Classification. Tropical cyclones are
expected to pass over or near the province 5 times a year.
From the month of June to September, there is heavy rainfall coinciding with the southwest
monsoon. However, during the months of October to November, the relatively high rainfall can
be traced from passage of tropical cyclones. Tropical cyclones are known to pass over the central
part of Luzon in the later part of the year as the coldest part in the northern hemisphere
strengthens. August proves to be the wettest month at 378.9mm of rainfall while February is the
driest month with only 3.4 mm of rain.
Days with thunderstorms also fall within the rainy months of June to September as local heating
becomes more pronounced. Normally, the prevailing southwest flow also induces vertical cloud
development that is responsible for thunderstorms.

Consistent with these local disturbances is the frequency of lightning.
The average wind direction throughout the year in northeasterly with a speed of 2 m/s. The
characteristic surface wind surface direction from May to September is southerly instead of south
westerly. This may be due to the fact that the Cabanatuan, like majority of the province of
Bulacan, is located further inland and away from the large bodies of water. In addition, the
topography affected by Zambales Mountain Range may have a funneling effect on the wind.
The max. and min. ranges from 38.7 degrees Celsius to 22.3 degrees Celsius, respectively. On
the average, relative humidity is 77%.
5.2.5.8 The Science Garden Synoptic Station
Consistent with the synoptic in Cabanatuan, the annual average wind can be noted to
northeasterly from the months of November to February and then southwesterly from the months
of June to September which is more pronounced than that of Cabanatuan. This may be due to the
fact that there is no local topography to hinder the southwest flow as it reaches Manila.
Similar to the Port Area, Manila and Cabanatuan stations, August proves to be the wettest month
with 517.1 mm of rainfall and February as the driest with only 7.4 mm of rainfall.
5.2.6 AIR QUALITY:
The air quality of the San Ildefonso, Bulacan is generally fair and typical to rural but developing
areas in Bulacan. However air quality deterioration is increasing due to population increase and
increase in mobile sources emission plying the busy National Highway . The air pollutants come
mostly from mobile sources in the area and light industrial activities such as ricemill and
limestone crushing and pulverizing which is common in the area. Other source of air pollution
comes from agricultural waste open burning, unpaved roads, and other area sources.
5.2.7 WATER RESOURCES
Based on previous studies, it was revealed that the static water level of private and communal
deep wells has not significantly lowered. This was attributed to the recharge to ground water,
which compensates to the extraction at the nearby watershed reservation areas of Angat Dam.
NWRC estimates that the ground water storage in the Angat River Basin is approx. 4,100 million
cu. m. while the estimated safe yield is 180 million cu. m. per year (NWRC, 1983).
The Angat Reservoir (Angat Multipurpose Dam) yields an ave. of 58 cum/s of water. The 1967
water sharing agreement among MWSS, NPC, and NIA allocate 22 cum/s to MWSS and 36

cum/s to NIA. The NPC, in principle utilizes water drawn by MWSS and NIA for its power
generation (ADB, 1995). Historically, water that is not needed by NIA from its allocation has
been available to MWSS. Currently, MWSS draws 32 cum/s for urban water supply in Metro
Manila (ADB, 1995). Water is drawn from the Ipo Dam that is located downstream of the Angat
Multipurpose Dam. On the other hand, the irrigation water requirement of NIA is drawn from a
site farther downstream of the Angat River ie. At the Angat Diversion Dam in San Rafael,
Bulacan.
The water supply demand in Bulacan is supplied by the local water district coming mostly from
ground water sources. The major sources of domestic water supply in the area are shallow wells
which are available at about 20 meters below ground surface (mbgs) and deep wells which are
about 30 mgbs. While difficult areas in the eastern planks such as DRT had water available that
reaches sub strata thru fissures, crack, and crevices. The earliest attempt to tap water resources of
the province materialized in 1979 when La Mesa Dam was build in Novaliches River to provide
potable water supply to Manila and the surrounding suburban areas.
The Ipo River is the site of another dam which supplements the water provided for by the La
Mesa Dam.
5.2.8 SOCIO ECONOMIC PROFILE OF BULACAN:
Bulacan is subdivided into 4 districts. It has 24 municipalities and 248 barangays. First district
has Malolos, Hagonoy, Bulacan, Pulilan, Paombong, and Calumpit. Second district has Balagtas,
Guiguinto, Plaridel, Pandi, Bustos, and Bocaue while the third is composed of San Miguel, Sa
Ildefonso, San Rafael, Norzagaray, Angat, and Dona Remedios Trinidad. Fourth district
composes of Marilao, Meycauayan, Obando, San Jose Del Monte, and Sta. Maria. Bulacan has a
total land area of 262,500 has. or approx. 14% of the total land area of the region. Of the 24
municipalities, Dona Remedios Trinidad is considered to be the biggest municipality with a total
land area of about 93,298 has or about 38% of the total province area.
The 1995 census of population conducted by the NSO placed the population of central Luzon at
6,932,570. This is about 12% higher than the total population for the region in 1990 census. The
province of Bulacan is pegged to have the largest population while Bataan has the lowest
population count as of 1995. Bulacan also holds the distinction of being the fastest growing
province. During 1990-1995 periods, Bulacan’s population grew by 3.46% per year

Hazardous Waste Treatment Operations:
Air Pollution:
Air pollutants from the furnace are released from fuel combustion that took place in the furnace
which produces gas emissions. The pollutants consists of primary and regulated pollutants such
as Particulate Matters(PM), Sulphur Dioxide(SO2), Nitrogen Dioxide(NO2). Carbon Dioxide
are likewise emitted during the fuel combustion process which has high Global Warming
Potencial. To mitigate harmful emission to health and environment and to ensure that the stack
emission shall comply with government standards, FAR EAST FUEL CORP. shall install
Scrubber System and shall utilize green and clean fuel such as Industrial Diesel Oil(IDO)which

has low sulphur content approximately .3% combined with excess gases from the condensing
process. Likewise, vents from product storage shall be provided with exhaust pipes connected to
the scrubber system to ensure that all gases passes thru scrubber and are utilized and burned as
fuel. In this manner compliance with the National Emission Standards for Specific
Pollutants(NESSAP) of the Philippine Clean Air Act is assured.
Odour Pollution
The Hazardous Waste Treatment and Tire Recycling operation are potential sources of odor
pollution because of harmful gases produced during the treatment process. These gases consist of
ammonia, hydrogen sulphite gases and methane. These gases are also harmful to health and
environment and causes respiratory illnesses. To mitigate its adverse effect to human health and
the environment, FAR EAST FUEL CORP. shall see to it that all harmful excess gases from
every processes passes thru the Hydroseal Gas Treatment Device/Scrubber System and are re
used as fuel in the furnace. Likewise, oil absorbent pads/materials shall be purchased to contain
minor spillages that occur within the plant during transfer of waste oil and product oil which
might cause odour emission. Hospital wastes shall be immediately subjected to thermal
destruction and shall stored in secured and sealed container to avoid odour emission most
especially infectious wastes and carcasses.
Noise
Impact assessment on noise nuisance during operational phase of the project is expected to be
significant but predicted to cause minimal impact to the environment. To mitigate its impact
proper handling of materials shall be employed during hauling of waste oil most especially those
that are contained in drums.
Solid Wastes
Solid wastes in the form of sludge, spent clay and ashes shall be subjected to Toxicity
Characteristic Leaching Procedure( TCLP) from accredited Third Party Laboratories of DENR
before disposal to EMB-DENR registered and secured sanitary landfill while busted fluorescent
bulbs shall be properly stored and disposed to other licensed waste treatment facility of mercury
bulbs. Ordinary garbage shall be recycled or re-used and the residual waste shall be disposed to
designated sanitary landfill site of the LGU of the City of Meycauayan.

Hazardous Wastes
HEPA filter wastes from the bulb crushing shall be temporarily stored within the plant site prior
to disposal at capable treatment facility local or abroad..
Water Pollution
As earlier mentioned, the proponent shall install Wastewater Treatment Facility (WTF) to treat
wastewater generated from its operation and cater also clients who needs Service provider for
treatment of liquid wastes. The proposed WTF is basically a combination of physical, chemical
and biological treatment. It shall consist of the following units:
Equalization/Neutralization Tank- Mixing and pH adjustment occurs;

Filtration Tanks-Solid particles are partially collected;
Sump Pit-Chemicals are added from chemical dosing tanks;
Primary Clarifier Tank-The flocs are separated in the primary clarifier and the sediments are
pumped into sludge drying bed while the wastewater are aerated to biodegrade the organic
content of the wastewater.
Secondary Clarifier Tank- The secondary clarifier shall further treat the remaining wastewater
from the primary clarifier. The sediments at the bottom of the tank shall be returned thru pump
into the aeration tank as input with the incoming wastewater while the excess sludge are pumped
into the sludge drying bed.
Water Chest- Effluent from the secondary clarifier tank passes the water chest wherein chlorine
treatment is employed. FAR EAST FUEL CORP. guarantees that the resulting effluent shall
comply with the DENR Standards.
Accidental Spills- To mitigate accidental spills, FAR EAST FUEL CORP. shall see to it that all
personnel from operations and office staff shall be required to attend seminars on Hazardous
Waste Handling Procedures. They shall be oriented on Material Safety Data Sheet and
emergency response in case of spillages and fire. Emergency drill shall be conducted to promote
awareness among personnel and staff of FAR EAST FUEL CORP. Absorbent materials, booms,
dispersant chemical shall be readied to respond and immediately contain any spills that occur
within and outside the plant. Storage tanks shall be provided with containment walls/bund walls
which are connected into oil/water separator to address oily water coming from minor spills at
oil treatment and tire derived oil recovery process, and storage before undergoing final treatment
at the WTF.

7.0 ENVIRONMENT MANAGEMENT PLAN:
To ensure that the proposed hazardous waste treatment and tire recycling project of the
proponent will not adversely affect its immediate environment, an Environmental Management
Plan was developed in order to address identified adverse impacts of the project. Appropriate
mitigating measures was included in the plan and the responsible person who will implement the
measures is likewise identified in the detailed EMP as shown in the matrix:

10.0 ASSESSMENT OF THE PROJECT
As earlier mentioned, the operation of FAR EAST FUEL CORP. in their Bahay Pare Plant,
Meycauayan, Bulacan since its establishment did not cause environmental problem in the area.
The Proponent’s operation had been environment friendly and was therefore issued annual
permits by the concerned LGUs and DENR-EMB, Region 3.
Evaluation of the firm’s environmental impact in this EIS showed that the identified adverse
impacts of the project can be mitigated and result of which is minimized and beneficial to the
impact zone. Moreover, the environmental performance of the firm had been truly well enough
and had been consistent with the rules and regulations of the national and local government.
With this regards, it is requested that issuance of the Environmental Compliance Certificate
(ECC) for the Proposed Relocation and Operation of the Hazardous Waste Treatment and Tire
Recycling Plant of FAR EAST FUEL CORP. located at Brgy. Anyatam, San Ildefonso, Bulacan
be granted in order to comply fully with the requirements of all environmental laws.
