Figure 10. Jurisdiction over coastal zones and municipal waters. Adapted from DENR-Land Management Bureau issued by former President Benigno Aquino III in 2011. Implemented under DENR, the program seeks to grow 1.5 billion trees in 1.5 million hectares nationwide in six years (2011 to 2016). Areas eligible for rehabilitation under NGP include mangroves, beach forests and protected areas, where fisherfolk organizations can be contracted for forest rehabilitation. In 2015, through EO 193, the NGP was further expanded to cover the remaining unproductive, denuded and degraded forest land, and extended to 2028. The Master Plan for Forestry Development (2016-2028) seeks to encourage and enhance development of forest plantations, with greater participation from the private sector, government units, and organized communities. However, instead of helping secure fisherfolk access and management of the coastal areas, the NGP sometimes leads to conflicts among fisherfolk organizations. There are cases where organizations close to DENR personnel tend to be favored with NGP contracts. Some reforestation projects are implemented by organizations from outside the barangays. Issues and threats on fisherfolk access and tenure Multiple, overlapping agency jurisdictions. There are several government agencies with jurisdiction over the coastal areas, particularly on foreshore and easement areas (LMB-DENR, 2018).
