1.0 INTRODUCTION

The commissioning of the Industrial EcoWatch Rating System (IERS) stems from
the basic policy of the Philippine Government to uphold the right of the Filipino to a
balanced and healthful ecology in accord with the rhythm and harmony of nature.
Towards this end, the IERS shall be adopted by the Department of Environment
and Natural Resources (DENR) as part of its compliance monitoring system.

Pursuant to the following laws and their respective implementing rules and
regulations (IRR); DENR, through the Environmental Management Bureau (EMB),
shall obtain any record, report, or information pertaining to the establishments’
environmental performance:

Presidential Decree (PD) 1586 Philippine Environmental Impact Statement


(EIS) System
Republic Act (RA) 6969 Toxic Substances and Hazardous and Nuclear
Wastes Control Act of 1990
RA 8749 Philippine Clean Air Act of 1999
RA 9003 Ecological Solid Wastes Management Act of 2000
RA 9275 Philippine Clean Water Act of 2004

Correspondingly, such information shall be made available to the public with due
consideration to any intellectual property rights, through the DENR’s IERS.

2.0 OBJECTIVES AND SCOPE OF THE IERS

The IERS is intended to promote self-regulation among establishments for


improved environmental compliance and performance through a rating system. It
is designed to encourage pollution reduction beyond compliance and ensure
effective enforcement of the requirements on compliance inspection of PD 1586, RA
6969, RA 8749, RA 9003, RA 9275, and their respective IRR.

The IERS shall be applicable to all establishments as indicated in Section 3.0 of


DAO 20AA-ZZ Revised Guidelines for Industrial EcoWatch Rating System.

For planning and budgetary purposes, a list of priority establishments


shall be issued by the Office of the EMB Director based on the
following criteria:

Multi-media concerns
Priority sector for economic development either in the national or
regional level

3.0 RATING AND COLOR CODING FOR ENVIRONMENTAL PERFORMANCE

Environmental performance is the implementation and practice of responsible


environmental management that ensures, at the very minimum, compliance with
environmental laws and regulations and other related policies. Under the IERS,
environmental performance of establishments is rated based on compliance to the
following key environmental modules:

PD 1586 Philippine EIS System


RA 6969 Toxic Substances and Hazardous and Nuclear Wastes Control Act
of 1990
 Title II – Chemical Management
 Title III – Hazardous Waste Management
RA 8749 Philippine Clean Air Act of 1999
RA 9003 Ecological Solid Wastes Management Act of 2000
RA 9275 Philippine Clean Water Act of 2004

Each environmental module has equal weight. To attain the minimum level of
performance (GOOD), an establishment must meet the performance rating shown
in Table 1. However, should an establishment get a failing rate (< 91%) in any
environmental module; it shall warrant a failed grade and a RED or BLACK
Environmental Performance Color Code, depending on the overall rating. Table 1
summarizes the performance rating and the equivalent color codes. The
succeeding subsections describe in detail the criteria and the rating process.

Table 1. Environmental Performance Rating and Color Codes


Performance Rating Level of Performance Color Code
Rated as Silver for Two Consecutive Years Excellent Gold
Rated as Green for Two Consecutive Years Outstanding Silver
At least 91% PLUS the emission and/ or
effluent concentrations are lower than the Very Good Green
applicable standards by at least 20%
91% rating and above Good Blue
71 to 90% rating Needs Improvement Red
70% rating and below Bad Black

3.1 ENVIRONMENTAL PERFORMANCE RATING WORKSHEET

Each environmental module has its own separate worksheet and shall be assessed
and rated independently from one another. In addition, each module has an equal
contribution to the overall rating of an establishment. The structure of the
worksheet is presented in Table 2, while details are discussed hereafter.

Annex 1 presents the complete environmental performance rating worksheet to be


used for the IERS.

PROCEDURAL MANUAL
Industrial EcoWatch Rating System
3.1.1 Environmental Performance Criteria

For each environmental module, specific criteria have been identified to be used in
assessing the environmental performance of establishments. These include, but
are not limited to, the following:

Securing of permits and/or clearances


Meeting performance standards
Training
Reporting

3.1.2 Weights of Environmental Performance Criterion

A specific weight is assigned per environmental performance criterion. Each


environmental module has a distinct total weight for all of its criteria.

The assigned weights are fixed and should not be changed from one establishment
to another. Should a change be deemed necessary, this shall only be conducted
after the review of the EMB Technical Committee and approval of the EMB Director.

3.1.3 Applicability Screening (Y or N)

Considering that not all requirements may be applicable to an establishment, an


applicability assessment shall be performed prior to evaluation. Each
environmental performance criterion shall be reviewed and assessed whether it can
be applied as criterion for a given establishment. If the criterion is determined to
be applicable, write “Y” in the applicability screening column; otherwise, write “N”.

3.1.4 Applicable Weights

An applicable criterion or a “Y” in the applicability screening column denotes that


the weight of the criterion shall be used in the evaluation. On the other hand, an
“N” denotes that no weight shall be used since the criterion is not applicable.

The total applicable weight can be obtained by adding all applicable weights and
noting the sum at the bottom cell under this column per module. Should there be
any inapplicable criterion/criteria, the corresponding weight shall be deducted from
the total weight of the module. For instance, if the total weight is 100 and one
criterion with a weight of 25 is not applicable to an establishment, the resulting
total applicable weight shall be 75.

3.1.5 Total Number of Conditions and Number of Complied Conditions

These fields are applicable only for environmental performance criterion pertaining
to Legal/Regulatory Instrument (permit, license, certificate, clearance) conditions,
analysis method recognitions, or Self-Monitoring Report (SMR) module
submissions.

List the conditions in the worksheet and evaluate each condition. Count the
number of complied conditions and the total number of conditions. Indicate both
counts in the worksheet.

PROCEDURAL MANUAL
Industrial EcoWatch Rating System
3.1.6 Records Presented / Remarks

This part of the environmental performance rating worksheet is very important as


this will justify the score of the establishment on the environmental performance
criterion. Specific records shall be listed corresponding to the environmental
performance criteria requirements.

Should the required records to meet environmental performance criteria be


unavailable, or if there are insufficiencies in the records; these should be indicated
in this part of the rating worksheet. Leaving blanks or stating “Not Applicable” is
not allowed.

3.1.7 Environmental Performance Score

Details on how each criterion is scored are presented in Section 3.2 of this
Procedural Manual. After scoring each criterion, the scores are then summed and
noted at the bottom cell under this column per module.

3.1.8 Environmental Performance Rating

The environmental performance rating in percentage (%) per module is obtained by


dividing the total score for the module with the total applicable weight, then
multiplying the quotient by 100. For cases where the resulting rating has decimal
places, the score shall be rounded off to the nearest whole number.

The overall environmental performance rating of the establishment is obtained by


averaging the rating of the six modules. However, should an establishment get a
failing rate (RED or BLACK) in any module; it shall warrant a failed grade and a
RED or BLACK Color Code, depending on the overall rating.

3.2 SCORING PER ENVIRONMENTAL PERFORMANCE CRITERION

This section discusses the process on how each environmental performance


criterion shall be scored. Details per environmental module are presented in the
succeeding subsections.

3.2.1 PD 1586 and its IRR

This subsection presents the environmental performance rating worksheet for PD


1586 and its IRR. Scoring per criterion shall be according to the guidelines

Maintained Records of Weights or Volume and Types of Solid Wastes
This criterion refers to an establishment’s recording of solid wastes generated.
Check if the establishment has maintained records of weights or volume and types
of solid waste generated. The record should include the amount of waste generated
and stored by the establishment as well as treated/disposed offsite. If the
inventory is balanced and complete, give a score of 10. Otherwise, a score of zero
shall be given.

With Trained Staff and Personnel Handling Solid Wastes


This criterion refers to the availability of trained personnel on solid waste
management. Check how many personnel are in charge of handling solid waste.
From these, check if the designated personnel have appropriate trainings on solid
waste management. If all designated personnel have the appropriate trainings, give
a score of 10. If not, calculate the percentage of satisfaction. For instance, there
are 20 designated personnel and only 18 have appropriate trainings on solid waste
management, this means that 90 percent of the applicable weight was achieved,
giving a score of nine.

Submitted Module 6 of the SMR Quarterly


This criterion refers to the quarterly submission of Module 6 of the SMR. Give a
score of 10 if the establishment submitted Module 6 of the four SMRs of the
previous year completely and on time. If not, calculate the percentage of
satisfaction. For instance, if only two SMRs were submitted with complete Module
6 and on time; this means that 50 percent of the applicable weight was achieved,
giving a score of five.

In listing the record(s) presented, indicate the exact dates when Module 6 of the
SMR was submitted. Also indicate the level of completeness of the submitted
Module 6.
3.3 RATING PROTOCOL

This section discusses the process flow during the implementation of the IERS. As
illustrated in Figure 1, EMB Central Office (CO) shall be responsible in planning
and overseeing the whole process. In addition, they will serve as the Quality
Assurance / Quality Control (QA/QC) of the IERS. On the other hand, EMB ROs
shall execute the actual fieldwork (i.e. rating the establishments) and compile the
necessary records.

Details of each process of the IERS are discussed in the succeeding subsections.

3.3.1 Identification of Priority Sector

EMB CO shall identify the priority sector(s) to be evaluated under the IERS for the
upcoming grading year through a consultative meeting. Pursuant to Section 2.0 of
this Procedural Manual, priority sector(s) shall be identified based on multi-media
concerns (water quality, air quality, chemical, and waste management concerns)
and significance with regards to economic development either in the national or
regional level.

Priority identification shall be done two months before the launch of the IERS, and
shall be carried out during the fourth quarter of the previous grading year.

3.3.2 Assessment of Applicable Criteria for Establishments to be Rated

Pursuant to Section 3.2 of this Procedural Manual, EMB ROs shall assess the
applicable criteria for each establishment to be rated. The assessment shall be
reflected on the Applicability Screening and Applicable Weight columns on the
worksheet (see Annex 1). Non-applicable criteria shall be ticked with an “N” mark
under the Applicability Screening column, while an “n/a” mark shall be placed
under the Applicable Weight column. The total applicable weight shall be obtained
by adding all applicable weights and noting the sum at the bottom cell under this
column per environmental module.

The assessment of applicable criteria is considered a part of the Environmental


Performance Rating exercise proper, and shall be done within the second quarter of
the current grading year.

3.3.3 Assessment of Environmental Performance

The assessment shall cover the environmental performance of the establishment


during the previous year.

The EMB RO representative shall gather all necessary data, including but not
limited to effluent/emission test data, permits/licenses/certificates, emergency
plans, corresponding SMR modules, and similar items (refer to Annex 1 for a
complete listing of the criteria per module). Based on the gathered data and using
the environmental performance rating worksheet, EMB RO shall perform the actual
rating exercise. Throughout the exercise, EMB RO shall conduct meeting/s with
the establishment being rated as necessary to clear up any confusion and/or
miscommunications immediately.

Grading shall follow the guidelines outlined in Sections 3.2 of this Procedural
Manual. Upon completion of the grading exercise, the color code corresponding to
the resultant grade shall be noted. EMB RO shall then forward to EMB CO the
completely filled-up Environmental Performance Worksheet noting the initial
eco-watch rating and color codes of the establishments as well as pertinent
documents used during the evaluation process. It should be emphasized that the
results from the rating exercise by EMB ROs are initial only, and are still subject
for review by EMB CO.

The Environmental Performance Assessment process shall be accomplished within


the second quarter of the current grading year.

3.3.4 Review and Validation of Environmental Performance Rating

EMB CO shall review and validate the Environmental Performance Rating to ensure
that the evaluation process has been conducted in accordance with the guidelines
and procedures set forth in this Procedural Manual.

In the case where EMB CO ascertains substantial errors in the rating process, EMB
CO shall notify the corresponding EMB RO and may conduct on-site validation.
This process shall be accomplished within the third quarter of the current grading
year.

EMB CO shall review and validate the ratings of EMB ROs only for the first three
years of implementing the revised guideline and procedural manual of the IERS.
After the said time period, EMB CO shall conduct review and validation after every
three years. This is to ensure adherence to the IERS protocol and to institute a
monitoring mechanism on the EMB ROs’ implementation of the IERS.

3.3.5 Notification of Establishment Regarding Their Environmental


Performance Rating

After review, EMB CO shall send a letter of notification (see Annex 2 for letter
template) to the establishment containing their Environmental Performance Rating.
The letters are to be distributed on or before January 31 of the following year.
Validated environmental performance ratings are considered final (for the current
grading year).

4.0 EVALUATION OF THE IERS

To evaluate the effectiveness and relevance of the IERS, the implementation shall
be subject to regular monitoring, evaluation, and/or formal review by EMB. The
following aspects shall be monitored and evaluated:

Institutionalization Aspect

The extent and stability of the institutionalization, in terms of


mainstreaming, of the IERS shall be evaluated every six months for the first
three years of evaluation. After which, the evaluation can be done every two
to three years.

Such evaluation shall cover the following elements:

 Staffing Level – Evaluation of the number of personnel assigned or


designated to implement the IERS at the EMB CO and RO. At the
minimum, one personnel in EMB CO and one in each EMB RO shall
be exclusively assigned (full-time) to manage and/or implement the
IERS.

 Capability and Training – Evaluation of the capability and capability


building activities for personnel assigned or designated to implement
the IERS. The attendance of staff directly involved in the IERS shall
be a minimum of one training per year. Such training shall be in the
subject area directly related to public disclosure and/or compliance
monitoring.

second year of implementation.

Operationalization Aspect

The effectiveness and efficiency of the implementation of the IERS shall be


evaluated every year. Such evaluation shall cover the following elements:

 Overall Coverage – Evaluation of the expansion of the coverage of the


IERS. The evaluation shall be based on the schedule of
implementation phases as issued by EMB.

 Sector Coverage – Evaluation of the expansion of the sectoral coverage


of the IERS. The minimum benchmark for this element is the
addition of one sector every year in each region.

 Establishment Coverage – Evaluation of the number of establishments


covered by the IERS. The minimum benchmark for this element is an
increase of at least five percent every year in the number of
establishments covered by the IERS.

Social Acceptability Aspect

The extent of social acceptability of the IERS shall be evaluated every year.
Such evaluation shall cover the following elements:

 Timeliness – Evaluation of the timeliness of public disclosure under


the IERS. The minimum benchmark for this element is the release of
rating exercise as per prescribed schedules on a regular basis.

 Participation – Evaluation of the desirability of participation in the


IERS. One of the possible benchmarks for this element is the number
of establishments voluntarily desiring participation in the IERS.

These evaluation criteria are not exhaustive or definitive. Revisions and/or


additional criteria/benchmarks may be undertaken to fine tune the evaluation
process. At the minimum, these evaluation criteria shall be reviewed every three
years to assess their appropriateness and/or relevance.
