HOW WI L L WAT E R QUAL I TY B E MANAGED?
Management of water quality will either be based on watershed,
river basin or water resources region. Water quality management
areas with similar hydrological, hydrogeological, meteorological or
geographic conditions which affect the reaction and diffusion of
pollutants in water bodies are to be designated by the DENR in
coordination with the National Water Resources Board (NWRB).
49
WHO WI L L MANAGE T H E S E AR EAS ?
Management will be localized. Multi-sectoral governing boards
will be established to manage water quality issues within their
jurisdiction.
50
WHO AR E T H E MEMB E R S OF T H E GOVE RNING
BOARDS ?
Governing Boards shall be composed of representatives of mayors
and governors as well as local government units, representatives
of relevant national government agencies, duly registered non-
government organizations, the concerned water utility sector and
the business sector.
51
WHAT AR E T H E FUN C T IONS OF T H E GOVE RNING
BOARDS ?
The Governing Boards will formulate strategies to coordinate
policies necessary for the effective implementation of this Act.
They will create a multi-sectoral group to establish and effect
water quality surveillance and monitoring.
52
HOW WI L L DI S C HARGE S OF WAS T EWAT E R B E
