Calamines or “northern” Tagbanwa follow a seminomadic, ocean fishing lifeway very different from that of the Tagbanwa of the mainland.” 6 RA 7160, Sec. 131, letter r states that “municipal waters” includes not only streams, lakes, and tidal waters within the municipality, not being the subject of private ownership and not comprised within the national parks, public forest, timber lands, forest reserves or fishery reserves, but also marine waters included between two lines drawn perpendicularly to the general coastline from points where the boundary lines of the municipality or city touch the sea at low tide and a third line parallel with the general coastline and 15 kilometers from it. Where two (2) municipalities are so situated on the opposite shores that there is less than 15 kilometers of marine waters between them, the third line shall be equally distant from opposite shores of their respective municipalities. 7 RA 7160 Chapter 2, Sec. 17, letter b, no. 2 8 RA 8371 Rule III, Part II, Sec. 2 9 RA 7160, Art.
