2.2. Project Rationale

8
The proposed project aims to develop a 40 MW hydroelectric power plant, to supply clean and
renewable power, while also accelerating the promotion, development, and implementation of new
and renewable energy sources in the Philippines. The Project is expected to generate significant
local employment and training opportunities during the pre-feasibility, feasibility, construction, and
operations phases of the plant. Similarly, the project aims to address Luzon’s increasing power
demands through environmentally and socially sustainable means.
9
According to DOE’s Demand-Supply Outlook from 2016-2040, the peak grid demand for Luzon
from 2016 to 2040 is expected to triple from 9,276 MW to 29,852 MW. The expected growth in
electricity demand dictates an additional capacity of 24,385 MW in the grid. With this, DOE stated
that Luzon must start to implement additional capacities starting 2023. Hence, the Project aims to
contribute to the increasing power demand in Luzon by producing 147 GWh/year of electricity.
10
Aboitiz Power Corporation. has secured a Hydropower Service Contract (HSC No. 2016-12-699)
from the Department of Energy, giving the company exclusive right to explore, develop and utilize
the Renewable Energy Resources under the terms thereof.

Figure 4. Proposed Vicinity Map

2.3. Project Alternatives

11
There is no better alternative for the project since the project itself is an alternative in augmenting
the storage of power sources and helps in reducing greenhouse gas emissions from the burning of
fossil fuel and coal as a power source. Moreover, there will be no massive structures to be built in
the area such that after the lifespan of the project, the area can be easily cleared without any toxic
or hazardous materials present on the site.
2.4. Power Plant Operations

12
The plant's operation is the conversion of hydropower into electricity. The process starts from the
water flowing from the Kibungan River. The weir diverts the flowing water into an intake channel, to
accommodate for the required desired discharge rate. The intake is then transported to a desander,
to remove sediments that can potentially damage the turbines. The water will then enter a headrace
tunnel for the removal of silt or clay that escaped the desander. Afterward, the surge tank allows
for the water pressure to be neutralized before going to the powerhouse. The powerhouse contains
the turbines necessary to produce electricity, by virtue of rotating a generator shaft that is connected
to the turbine.
2.5. Project Components

2.5.1. Project Layout
13
The Kibungan 2 HEPP general development plan is shown in Figure 5. The project is primarily
composed of access roads, weir, desander, headrace box culvert, headrace tunnel, surge tank,
penstock line, powerhouse, substation, and transmission line.

15
Weir. The weir is the main diverting structure connected to the Kibungan River. It is designed as a
drop intake weir. Water coming from the Kibungan River will be captured through an intake channel,
to accommodate for the required design discharge. During the wet season, the river flows that are
greater than the required flow will directly pass over the weir and continue downstream. Steel
screens are installed to prevent debris and trash in the intake. Accumulated river aggregates and
silt are flushed back into the river through a bypass gate.
16
Desander. The desander is designed using a chamber settling-basin type. It is located adjacent to
the intake structure, to separate sediments from the flowing water. This prevents turbines from
getting damaged. Sediment particles with a size greater than 0,3mm will settle at the bottom of the
desander and will be removed through the flushing gate if necessary.

17
Reinforced Boxculvert. The box culvert will be made up of reinforced concrete and will be
constructed on-site. There will be two box culverts, first connecting the weir intake to the desander,
and second connecting the desander to the tunnel inlet. The box culvert is designed to prevent
sediments from settling on its invert bed.
18
Headrace Tunnel. The headrace tunnel will be excavated once the box culvert has been
constructed. Similar to the box culvert, the tunnel bed will be designed with a slope that can prevent
silt or clay that escaped the desander to settle on the tunnel bed. The tunnel shall be supported
depending on the type of rock along the tunnel alignment.
19
Surge tank. The surge tank is responsible for the neutralization of pressure in hydropower water
conveyance systems. This is to dampen any excess pressure variance from the transport process.
The surge tank is cylindrically shaped, made up of steel. The tank shall be installed vertically before
the penstock.
20
Penstock. The penstock is made up of canned steel pipe surfaced after the tunnel outlet portal,
and supported with anchor blocks and support piers. The penstock length will have varying
thickness, which is dependent on the applied pressure along its length. The water hammer
allowance shall be considered in the design of the thickness.
21
Powerhouse. The powerhouse, located at the left bank of the Kibungan River, shall be within the
vicinity of Barangay Badeo. The powerhouse will be a surface structure that preliminarily rests on
a relatively flat surface. The composition of the substructure and tailrace shall be made of concrete,
while the superstructure shall be made of a reinforced concrete structure having a composite slab.
A tailrace canal will be constructed to convey the water from the powerhouse back to the river.
22
Switchyard. The switchyard shall be situated uphill of the box-type powerhouse and shall contain
the electrical components. The electrical components are composed of transformers, lightning
arresters, and take-off.
2.5.3. Electro-mechanical
23
Powerhouse. The Kibungan 2 HEPP Power Station shall house two (2) 20 MW Vertical Pelton
Turbines with multi-jet for the head. The turbine-generator arrangement, with the turbine runner, is
directly mounted on an extended generator shaft. The Pelton Turbines are fitted with heat
deflectors, for speed governing and to limit pressure rise in case of losing connection with the grid.
The turbines will be serviced by a 120 Ton overhead traveling crane with a 10 Ton auxiliary hook.
24
A small switchyard shall be located alongside the powerhouse. A generator circuit breaker will be
cable connected to a disconnect or earth switch, located in the switchyard, to isolate the generator
from the 13.8kV transmission line during maintenance. A 400VAC 3-phase auxiliary station power
supply shall be provided by pole-mounted transformers, which are connected to the transmission
line via a pole-mounted fused cut-out switch.
2.5.4. Electrical
25
System. The electrical system shall be composed of seven major components, namely the
substation, connection or transmission line, connection point, communication, protection,
powerhouse electrical, and power supply systems.
26
The system shall generate 13.8kV, which will be increased to 69kV to match the connection point
system voltage at the NGCP Bacnotan substation. The station service power supply will be provided
for the powerhouse, which is connected to the main 13.8kV bus of the system.
27
Connection Scheme. The generated 40MW power of Kibungan 2 HEPP will be transported to the
NGCP Bacnotan substation as the connection point. From the location of the step-up substation,

located at Brgy. Badeo, Kibungan, the 25.5km, 1 x 556.5 MCM ACSR, 69kV connection line will be
constructed approaching the NGCP facility.
28
Substation. The substation shall be a typical outdoor substation compost, with two (2) units of
30MVA, oil-immersed power transformer. For a cheaper and less complicated substation operation,
a single bus scheme is considered in the design of the primary circuit. Other electrical equipment,
such as instrument transformers, surge arresters, disconnect switches, and structural supports,
shall also be installed for monitoring, protection, operation, maintenance, and other purposes for
safe human intervention.
29
Connection Line. The connection or transmission line is designed to ensure that the quality of the
power measured at the connection point will be compliant with the requirements by the Philippine
Grid Code and other applicable standards. The transmission line will hold the 1x556.5mcm ACSR
conductor for the stretch of 25km, 69kV. Careful selection of the transmission line route was done
during a series of field investigations and activities. The selection process considered the
constructability, maintainability, safety, the environmental and social impact of the line. The
proposed route will traverse portions of rough terrains, rice fields, creeks, and rivers along with the
Municipalities of Kibungan, Benguet, Santol, and Bacnotan, La Union.
30
Connection Point. The NGCP Bacnotan Substation was the identified connection point of the
project. This substation was selected since it is the closest NGCP facility, making it advantageous
to the project in terms of proximity and substation availability, considering the space, transformer
capacity, and the timing of NGCP’s TDP expansion schedule at the said substation. Upon site
verification, the said NGCP expansion plan is currently ongoing. The expansion project involves the
installation of an additional 100MVA, 69/230kV power transformer and 69kV breaker, and a half
switching configuration where the existing loads will be connected. The Kibungan 2 HEPP is listed
in the NGCP generation potentials that will be connected to the substation.
Figure 6. Connection scheme showing the Transmission Line route

2.6. Project Development Plan
31
The following items outline the project phases for the proposed Kibungan 2 HEPP.
2.6.1. Pre-Construction Phase

32
Pre-Development. This stage consists of initiation and planning, which involves the table study
stage, site investigation stage, preliminary study stage, and feasibility study stage. Moreover, the
said stages involve site reconnaissance and investigation, engineering surveys, environmental
impact assessment studies, consultation with the project stakeholders through FPIC, negotiations
for appropriate agreements, permits, approvals, memorandum of agreement, and other legal
requirements for the finalization or perfection of the agreement or contract for the implementation
of the Project. Acquisition of the land and right-of-way (ROW) is also included for the diversion weir
and intake facilities, headrace tunnel, penstock, surge tank, powerhouse, and access roads.
33
Development. This stage consists of detailed engineering, preparation of bid/tender documents for
both civil works and equipment/machinery, which includes Tendering and Contracting
Requirements, General and Special Conditions of Contract, Technical Specifications, Engineering
Plans/Drawings, and Bill of Quantities.
2.6.2. Construction Phase

34
This stage consists of the procurement of equipment, machinery, and construction materials for the
Project. Moreover, site development and related hydropower structures and facilities shall be
constructed. Delivery of the equipment and plant machinery, which includes installation, will also
be scheduled in this phase. The construction-related activities that will be performed are as follows:
Mobilization of construction equipment, construction of new access roads and access foot tracks,
the establishment of temporary work areas, construction of the components and structures of the
project, testing, and commissioning, and demobilization and site clean-up.
2.6.3. Operations and Maintenance Phase

35
This phase shall be considered as the operational stage of the hydropower facility. The HEPP is
expected to generate electricity for an estimated duration of 25 years. All activities about the
operational stage will focus on efficient maintenance of the facilities, which includes the following:
Landscaping and plantation, noise and another public nuisance abatement, new long-term jobs will
be created in which qualified residents will be given priority, protected area management in
coordination with the LGU and DENR/CENRO, stakeholder management, and safety, health and
environmental management within the facility.
2.6.4. Abandonment Phase

36
The HEPP is designed to operate for an estimated duration of 25 years. However, the power facility
can still be beneficial to operate beyond its projected lifespan. Should there be a plan for
abandonment, recycling, and selling of the usable parts will be made. Likewise, existing
infrastructures may be re-engineered to suit other beneficial uses.

2.7. Implementation Schedule
37
Construction is expected to start in the last quarter of 2021 and shall last for about 27 months.
Operation and maintenance of the power facilities are expected to last for 25 years starting from
the 2nd quarter of 2024. Hedcor Benguet Inc., under its Vice President for Operations, shall be
responsible for the management of the 40 MW Kibungan 2 HEPP’s commercial operation.
Table 3. Project Construction Timeline
Preliminary Construction Schedule

Start End
Kibungan 2 HEPP Approx. Duration, Months
Execution 27 Months December 2021 March 2024
2.8. Manpower Requirements

38
The estimated manpower requirement is expected to be around 500 during construction phase, and
22 during operation phase (12 engineers, 10 others - Admin/HR/Accounting/Management). The
manpower would include both contractors and subcontractors. Preference to qualified residents
shall be given for the new long-term employment that will be made. For the duration of the
construction phase, the personnel shall set up temporary shelters, which will then be removed after
the completion of the project. Likewise, security personnel will also be employed, to ensure the
safety and security of the personnel involved in the project.
2.9. Financial Projections

39
The proposed Kibungan 2 Hydroelectric Power Project shall have a total capacity of 40 MW and is
expected to produce a total of 147GWh/year. The total project cost for the site is estimated at 3.4B
PHP. A minor part of the budget is allotted for contingency in cases where there is a difference
between actual and estimated costs. This difference can be attributed to potential difficulties during
construction, and uncertainties with regards to the topography and geography.

3. PRELIMINARY IDENTIFICATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS
40
Generally, renewable energy plants reduce the impact of combustion used in fossil power
generation, such as the emission of air pollutants like sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, carbon
monoxide, volatile organic compounds, and greenhouse gas carbon dioxide.
41
Existing land use and encroachment in ECAs - Conflict with existing land use is not foreseen as
the site is already zoned for residential-industrial use. There are no Environmentally Critical Areas
(ECAs) within the immediate vicinity of the project site, thus the project will not encroach into an
environmentally critical area.
42
Potential impacts on the host communities – The construction and operations phases can
potentially affect the host communities, due to the changes in the specified project location.
However, these were considered in the sustainability and development plan of the project, which
similarly benefits the said group.
43
Potential impacts on terrestrial wildlife – The proposed hydroelectric power project site is mainly
open grassland. There is a possible displacement of wildlife organisms during the construction
stage because of the generated noise and dust accumulation. Improvement of access roads,
drainage, and road rehabilitation will involve excavation of soil, cement, or asphalt leading to dust
accumulation and the use of heavy equipment may generate noise. Based on the initial assessment
of the proponent, there are no endangered species present at the project site. Site clearing,
construction, and the subsequent operation of the HEPP will cause wildlife to avoid or move away
from the project site. There will be very minor impacts on fauna to the construction of the project.
44
Potential impacts on water quality - Aside from temporary siltation during the pre-construction
and construction phases, the project is not expected to have major impacts on water quality in the
project site and vicinity. Siltation during the pre-construction and operation phases will be caused
by site preparation and earth moving activities.
45
Wastewater from the construction camp will also be a potential threat to receiving water bodies.
However, this impact is not considered significant, as the camp will be provided with septic tanks
or portable toilets.
46
Potential impacts on aquatic wildlife – The diversion of the river flow could potentially affect the
fish population and aquatic ecosystem. Changes in water composition, such as temperature and
turbidity, can also be present due to the said alterations in the water flow.
47
Potential impacts on air quality and noise - During the construction stage, dust and noise are
the main sources of a nuisance especially for settlements located near the construction site, such
as Brgy. Badeo, Brgy. Poblacion and Brgy. Sagpat.
48
The main source of dust is the excavation activities and the hauling of construction materials.
Uncovered stockpiles of construction materials can also generate dust that can be a nuisance to
nearby communities.
49
The main source of noise during construction is the use of construction equipment. However, since
the project site will have its access road for the construction vehicles, dust accumulation and noise
have an insignificant impact on the neighboring communities. Likewise, construction will only be
conducted during the daytime and will be avoided during the night as much as possible.

Safety and public health hazards – Paramount to the 40 MW Kibungan 2 Hydroelectric Power
Project is the health and safety of the general public. The power plant has no harmful effect on the
environment and the health of the people. The project has no component that will lead to or cause
ground subsidence or collapse. During the construction phase, the company will require the strict
implementation of standard safety measures to protect workers from accidents under existing
legislation and regulations. Meanwhile, during the operations stage, safety protocols and
precautions will be continuously observed.
51
Impact on traffic situation - There will be minimal effect on the traffic situation in the area as there
are no settlements on the proposed project site. Moreover, the main components of the project,
such as the powerhouse, tunnel, weir, etc., can only be accessed by trail/trekking. This indicates
that there will be insignificant changes with regards to traffic.
52
Local Benefits – Hydroelectric power plant construction will generate employment opportunities
through direct employment. It will create job opportunities for locals during the stages of pre-
feasibility, feasibility, construction, and operations. The employment generation excludes
businesses and jobs to be created indirectly attributed to the project. Businesses may include small
enterprises, restaurants, and logistics.
53
Consequently, the creation of a significant number of employments for the locals of Brgy. Badeo,
Poblacion, and Sagpat, will alleviate poverty conditions and elevate the standards of living, a ripple
effect that will be perceived not only by the locals to be employed but by the host communities as
well. Local benefits predicted include the following:
• Increased barangay income from the share in the business tax
• Barangay development projects from Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiatives
• Increased access to educational facilities
• Local employment during the pre-feasibility, feasibility, construction, operation, and

abandonment of the project, thereby also increasing the knowledge and skills of residents
• Increased individual income from indirect livelihood generation

54
Local Businesses – The establishment of the HEPP will encourage entrepreneurship to the
community. This is done by providing loans for small businesses, such as farming. The community
shall also be given trainings such as computer tutorials, sewing, and other trade skills that will be
used for small entrepreneurship.
55
ER 1-94 – Under DOE Energy Regulation 1-94, as amended, a financial gain will be granted to the
host community of the hydroelectric power project. The economic benefit is equivalent to Php 0.01
per kWh of electricity sales by the facility. This benefit will be allocated to the electrification,
development and livelihood, reforestation, watershed management, health, and environmental
enhancement funds. This is apart from the government share as provided under Section 20. Rule
7 of the RE-IRR and Section 13, Chapter V of Republic Act No. 9513 otherwise known as the
“Renewable Energy Act of 2008”. Under the said provision, the government share on the existing
and new RE development, projects shall be equal to one percent (1%) of the gross income of RE
resource developers resulting from the sale of energy produced and such other income incidental
to and arising from the renewable energy generation, transmission and sale of electric power.
3.1. Preliminarily Identified Impact Areas

56
The study areas for the proposed project will consider both the direct and indirect impact areas.
The delineation of the preliminary direct and indirect impact areas was based on the definition of
these areas from the Revised Procedural Manual (DAO 2003-30) as follows:
“a) Direct impact area (DIA) is initially delimited during the Pre-EIA Study Stage as the area
where ALL project facilities are proposed to be constructed/situated and where all operations
are proposed to be undertaken. For most projects, the DIA is equivalent to the total area applied
for an ECC.
b) Indirect Impact Area (IIA) during the pre-EIA Study can only be assumed or qualitatively
estimated but may be guided by secondary data and information from key interviews of reliable
local authorities, e.g., Based on a NAMRIA topographic map, an IIA can be the stretch of the
river/s OUTSIDE the project area but draining the project site which can potentially transport
Total Suspended Solids and other discharges from the Project towards downstream
communities.
c) On the other hand, the Regional Impact Zone (RIZ) pertains more to the general area where
the impact of the project would be felt, such as the entire municipality, province, or region.”
57
As interpreted based on the Revised DAO 2003-03 and Section 10 of DAO 2017-15, Figure 7
shows the preliminarily identified direct and indirect impact areas of the proposed Project.
• Direct Impact Area (DIA) – This shall cover the host barangays in Table 1. Most of the
direct impacts are attributable to the construction, operational, and decommissioning
phases such as:
o Disturbances to vegetation, soil, water, and air quality
o Noise generated by equipment and traffic movements
o Public safety and hazards
o Public amenity impacts
o Pollution risks
• Indirect Impact Area (IIA) – The Indirect Impact Area (IIA) covers adjacent areas
immediately outside of the primary impact area, mainly, those within the 500 to 1000 meters
radius from the plant site. The IIA is perceived to be affected by some residual effects of
the Project during construction and operations, notably, noise, pollution, transportation
impacts. However, the project could have a positive social-economic effect due to
employment and livelihood opportunities to residents of the host and surrounding
barangays.
58
The delineation of impact areas shall be revised based on the results of the EIA Study.

Figure 7. Preliminary Impact Areas

4. Information, Education, & Communication (IEC) Campaign
59
As part of the social preparation process at pre-scoping, Information, Education, and
Communication (IEC) are required before requesting a Public and Technical Scoping. IEC primarily
identifies stakeholders and their related issues and concerns toward the project for Scoping proper.
Solar Philippines along with its consultant, GreenDevelopment Sustainable Solutions, Inc. has
conducted an IEC campaign to the project’s host communities in Barangay Poblacion, Badeo, and
Sagpat in Kibungan, Benguet.
60
However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the IEC campaign was done under the guidelines
imposed by Inter-Agency Task Force (IATF), following the community quarantine guidelines. EMB
MC 2020-30 or the Interim guidelines on public participation in the implementation of PEISS during
the state of national public health emergency was also used as a guideline in conducting the IEC.
Given these guidelines, the IEC was conducted on a house-to-house basis.
61
Barangay officials and locals (from each barangay) were tapped as the enumerators taking
advantage of their superior knowledge of their communities and neighborhoods. The enumerators
were gathered in Brgy. Poblacion, where the IEC campaign activities were held. These locals were
oriented about the project description and trained on answering designed survey instrument, and
were assigned to their respective barangays to avoid duplicity of respondents.
62
Various stakeholders consisting of barangay officials, landowners, and representatives from
different sectors such as academe, youth sector, senior citizens, working-class group, and farmers
community are targeted for this IEC campaign.
63
There are two (2) primary objectives of the conducted IEC, viz: (1) to inform the stakeholders about
the proposed solar power project in their community and the EIA process for this project and (2) to
gather concerns on related issues and comments and recommendations from the stakeholders.

Figure 8. IEC and Perception Survey Documentation
4.1. Summary of Issues, Concerns, and Responses

Table 4 shows the summary of issues, concerns, and recommendations gathered from the stakeholders
during the IEC campaign and are distributed into various categories. Responses of the proponent in

5. PERCEPTION SURVEY RESULTS AND ANALYSIS

64
A perception survey was performed in the two direct impact barangays to determine the knowledge
and sentiments of these communities towards the project. The information, education, and
communication (IEC) campaign activities were held last August 26, 2021, while the perception
survey was held from August 27 to September 3, 2021. Barangay officials and locals were tapped
as enumerators, taking advantage of their superior knowledge of their communities and
neighborhoods.
65
A total of 341 respondents were interviewed on a face-to-face and one-to-one basis to gather basic
information about their households and their views on the proposed project. Respondents were
chosen in the following order of preference:
• Household head (who may be male or female but always a resident-household member
who makes the major household decisions or is perceived to do so; the household head is
usually the father but may also be the mother or the eldest child who is of majority age (18
years old);
• Spouse of the household head;
• Son or daughter who is at least 18 years old of the household head; or

• Other relatives who are at least 18 years old of the household head.
66
In general, the survey aimed to develop an actual appreciation of the communities’ perceived ideas
on the project and to serve as an avenue for the host communities to provide initial suggestions
and recommendations to the project proponent.
5.1. Basic Demographic and Household Characteristics
5.1.1. Distribution of Respondents

67
Samples were taken from each purok or sitio of each host barangays to ensure that the survey

Aside from the discussed project benefits, the respondents are also expecting adverse impacts
during project implementation. These impacts include issues on the Water and Soil Quality with
65%. Concerns from the former were anchored on possibilities of affecting their livelihood. For the
latter, disturbance of faunal species and their habitat (both inland and water) and change in
freshwater and soil quality were considered.

77
According to the computed average ratings, more than half of the respondents from Badeo (58%)
generally perceived the project as beneficial and promising since it was seen as a magnet of
employment opportunities for the locals. For Poblacion and Sagpat, most of the grades range from
7-10 as shown in the graph. Generally, they perceived the project to be beneficial to them most
especially to their community. However, most of them still have hesitations on the said project
linking to their perceived adverse effect of the project. The said impression may also be attributed
to the respondents’ lack of knowledge and deeper understanding of the project. Therefore,
continuous IEC and public consultation activities should be done to fully further the stakeholders’
understanding and appreciation of the project.

Overall project impression was asked to each respondent by rating their general perception towards
it. The rating was guided by the question, “Do you think the project is geared towards the betterment
of the community? Kindly rate your impression from 1-10, where “10” means that the project is
generally promising while “0” means that the project is nonsense at all.”
