Implementing Rules and Regulation of E-NIPAS

Act of 2018
Legal Bases
Integrated Protected Area Fund (IPAF)
Created pursuant to Sec. 16 of the National Integrated

Protected Areas System (NIPAS) Act which serves as the
main funding vehicle for PA management
3 Main Problems of IPAF

➢the incentives for local PA managers
➢the source of funds for the IPAF and;
➢the use of funds from the IPAF
Legal Bases
Amendments in IPAF Management
➢ 1996-2013

REVENUE SOURCES
Income Generated from the Operation and Management

of the PA Picnic Sheds
➢ Fees and charges from the use of resources and

facilities of PAs
➢ Contribution from industries and facilities directly
benefiting from the PA
➢ All other fees and income derived from operations of
the PA.
✓ Revenues generated from PA operation & management
shall accrue to the IPAF
✓ Retention by the PAMB of 75% of PA income

➢ PA-Retained Income Account (RIA)
• account each PA shall establish and maintain with an AGDB for the
75% of income from operations
• (Rule 16.1.b). shall be used solely for the protection, maintenance,
administration, and management of the PA, and the
implementation of duly approved projects of the PAMB

THE PA FINANCE
PLAN

Why BER?
The key intention of the BER is to obtain and

use detailed data on public, private, and civil
society budgets, allocations, and
expenditures to inform and promote
improved biodiversity policies, financing,
and outcomes.
BER
involves the inventory and

analysis of biodiversity
expenditures by the
government and other
stakeholder-institutions that
include the private sector,
donors, and civil society
organizations.
It is a retrospective
exercise, meaning it
examines data from the
past for the purpose of
informing the future.

IV Strategies to transform
finance instruments into
finance solutions
What is a finance
instrument?
Instruments may be regulatory (fees, fines,
permits, license, royalty), market (treasury
bills), fiscal (government revenue like taxes),
grants, debt (loan)/equity (assets)
Listing of existing financial instruments &

other relevant tools and strategies from
PIR should be converted into a list of
potential finance solutions
What is a finance solution?
• Seeks to use one or more finance

instruments to achieve a specific
outcome or solve a specific problem
• Seeks to increase effectiveness, scale

or impact of a specific instrument to
achieve a clear biodiversity outcome
Example: revision of a PA entrance fee system by
increasing the fee rate and earmarking a percentage of
park entrance fees (the finance instrument is the
change in regulatory provisions for modifying park
entrance fees)
Can rely on public or private
revenues or contributions; be
built around voluntary or
compulsory schemes; guided by
markets or regulations; be
available on a short- or long-term
basis; be associated with
particular conditions set by the
finance providers; and be
available in different currencies
Private investment in biodiversity
• Can be mobilized via regulatory frameworks, smart

incentives and awareness of inclusive and sustainable
business models
• Who are private investors? Wealthy individuals, private

companies, other institutional investors and even
mainstream retail investors
1. Each solution must have a clear
objective through which it seeks to
change a situation from a present state
to a new desired state
2. Each solution must be described in

detail
Elements of finance
solutions
3. Each solution should lead to an estimate
of a financial impact along the four results:

RES
How to describe a finance solution
Should be able to answer the following questions
Sources of finance the solution relies upon Park visitors (private)
Lead agent or intermediaries tasked to manage the PAMO (fee as approved by PAMB)
operationalization of the solution (a government entity
proposing a tax reform or the bank establishing the trust
fund or issuing a bond to deliver conservation finance)
Beneficiaries or principal stakeholders (receive the Park rangers’ patrol equipment
financing or targets of the instrument)
Instruments used to mobilize, collect, manage and Entrance fee
disburse the funding (fees, bonds, equities, fiscal and
regulatory reforms)
Desired finance result Generate revenues
• Determine fees & charges;
administrative fines and
penalties; contracts and/or
agreements with private entities
or public agencies; fund, gifts or
bequests or other property [Sec
10 ENIPAS IRR];
• Committees on Project
Development and Sustainable
Financing [Rule 11.12 ENIPAS
IRR];
• Collect and/or receive pertinent
fees, charges, donations, and
other income for the PA [Sec 11-B
ENIPAS IRR];
• Special uses within the protected
area [Sec 25 ENIPAS IRR]
• A c c e s s t o I PA F [ S e c 1 6
E N I PA S I R R ]
• Reducing, redirecting or
eliminating subsidies & other
spending that harms BD and
increasing or redirecting
financial flows towards BD;
• Lobbying for shifting budget
allocations towards BD – PAMB
membership which includes
governor, senator, district
representative, mayor, barangay
chair, RDs of selected NGAs,
NGO, academe, private sector
[Sec 11 ENIPAS IRR]
Avoid future costs
• PAMP that promotes adoption and implementation of innovative management
techniques [Sec 9 ENIPAS IRR]
Deliver better
• Harmonization of PAMP with ADSDPP, CLUP [Sec 9 of ENIPAS IRR];

• Integration of PAMPs, programs, projects and policies with relevant
national and LGUs’ plans and programs; request for and receive
any technical assistance, support or advice from any government
agency, academic institution, NGO and private sector [Sec 11-B
ENIPAS IRR];
• LGUs may appropriate portions of their share from annual IRA &
other income for use of the PA [Sec 26 ENIPAS IRR]);
• LGUs with territory inside PAs shall align their CLUPs, local
development plans, disaster risk reduction management plans and
other required plans [Sec 26 ENIPAS IRR]
Strategies to transform finance instruments into finance
solutions
1. Reform or combine existing finance instruments

• Is instrument functioning optimally? If not, why not?
• What would be most impactful change?
• Can instrument be scaled up or replicated to achieve greater impact?
• If instrument is well designed but not functioning, what supporting actions can be taken?
• Ex. User fee system
solutions
2. Refine policy and regulatory opportunities

• Are existing policies, regulations and laws effectively implemented?
• If not, how can small improvements create powerful economic or financial incentives?
• Ex. Transformation of National Greening Program to Enhanced NGP
solutions
3. Expand and/or earmark existing revenues

• Increase revenue
• Earmark revenues for conservation
• Measure the impact of change in behaviors by technical reforms (may include a new fee
design to better reduce consumption patterns e.g. addressing the illegal wildlife trade or
utilization of natural resources)
solutions
4. Exploit planning and budgeting opportunities

• Work with multiple agencies (agriculture, tourism, public works lobbying for greater budget
allocation), civil society organizations (environmental NGOs, religious and civic
organizations), academe, LGUs, private sector to mainstream biodiversity into their budgets
solutions
5. Achieve cost efficiency

• Identify organizational cost-efficiency gains to inform future spending practices (e.g.
reforestation projects could switch to plant only native trees; subsidies for fishing and
agriculture that can be used for sustainable products could be simplified)
Some examples of finance solutions
6. Introduce innovative strategies and approaches

WHAT IS A PROTECTED AREA INVESTMENT PROGRAM (PAIP)?
A list of programs and projects that the PAMO-DENR wants to carry out. It
should also contain a program for planned financing or for using the
investible funds to finance the implementation of those programs and
projects.
CASE PLANNING
WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF THE PAIP?
❑ …. the principal
instrument for
implementing the PAMP
❑ …. serves as the link

between the plan and
the budget
CASE PLANNING
BASIC CONCEPTS
• “INVESTMENT PROGRAM” is a program for utilizing the projected
investible funds. It is the 6-year chunk of the PAMP and PAFP.
• “INVESTIBLE FUND” consist of the following:
❑ PA-DENR budget outlay for the PA
✓ Non-office maintenance and other
operating expenses
✓ Non-office capital outlay
❑ Funds that can be mobilized from the finance solutions

FINANCE SOLUTION PROPOSAL TEMPLATE
(DO NOT PRINT – Save the planet)
Name of PA: ………….………….…… Submission date: ………….……. …..
Contact person: ………………….……. Email Address: ……………...….……
This brief proposal template is for all BIOFIN Philippines partners to complete for each
finance solution that is being proposed as part of the Protected Area Finance Plan (PAFP).
It is not required for all of the finance solutions in the PAFP, it is however required for any
finance solutions the PA will implement. The goal of the proposal is 1) reach an optimal
design for the solution implementation, 2) provide PA with key information on all solutions
being piloted (proposed and ongoing), and 3) identify key success indicators. This format
will be used to evaluate if the finance solution can be implemented.
The PAs are recommended to use of the Screening Tool, particularly the screening
questions. The proposal will include all preparatory and full implementation activities. The
former include all the necessary preparatory activities such as feasibility studies and
stakeholder engagements. The finance solution is considered for full implementation if the
template shows enough detailed information and results from feasibility studies and
research made by BIOFIN or other partners and research institutions.
The review of this proposal will follow the system illustrated in the following figure for each
stage:

Concise Description of the Description
Finance Solution (Approx 150 Please follow this structure:
words) - Context
- Opportunity
- Finance solution
- Objectives
- Steps to be taken
- Impacts and Results
Example:
The achievement of Protected Areas’ primary goal - biodiversity
conservation – is dependent on significant financial expenditures
and current financing for PA management is low. Protected
Areas’ (PAs) own revenues from sources such as entrance fees,
accommodation fees, concessions and tourist services charges
play an important role in supporting their financial
sustainability. The PAMO have increased their own revenues by
an average of 40% per year over the last 4 years primarily
through the introduction of entrance fees for access to tourist
caves and other built infrastructure around natural sites. The
aim of this solution is to increase the rate of own revenue
growth for protected areas – a particularly important imperative
given to government budget constraints – through increased
entrance fees and enhanced infrastructure and other tourism
2
services. The solution entails drawing up sustainable tourism
infrastructure development plans for key protected areas to be
financed by government, donors and, potentially, financial
institutions. New infrastructure will be developed to generate
financial returns by capturing entrance and user fees. Revenues
will support the entire protected areas system’s management
goals.
Contribution to SDGs Please list the main SDG/s to which the Solution will contribute
(e.g., SDG15, SDG5) and how it supports these SDGs.

MAIN PROPOSAL AND APPROACH

1. Background information • Describe the general problem the solution is seeking to address,
(150 words approx.) opportunity and need for the solution.
• Why was this solution selected?
• What are the expected impacts on biodiversity, finance, socio-
economic and gender aspects? (and a completed Annex 1–
table 7.3 in workbook).
• Please note the consultation process - How was stakeholder
input gathered and incorporated into the project proposal?
• What is the Baseline situation (please indicate the references of
the information gathered).
2. Objective(s) and Results What are the specific objectives of this activity and what results are
expected (100 words expected. Please include a description of short term outputs and
approx.) longer-term outcomes.
3. Business case (Approx 150 The business case should demonstrate the necessity for the finance
words) solution, the feasibility and the possible impact.
4
Please use quantitative information when available. Numbers can
be used to demonstrate the problem to solve and to show feasibility
and impact.
Business case can contain the following information:
- economic contribution of sector;
- potential social and environmental impact;
- cite examples where a similar finance solution has been
successfully applied;
- implication to improvement in governance;
Example 1:
- Tourism contributed roughly 8.1% to the national GDP in
2016 and supported 122,000 direct jobs in the country.
- Strong interest in nature-based tourism is illustrated by the
rapid growth of PA visitors in the last few years.
- The Agency for Protected Areas manages about 8.6% of the
land area of the country and the PA estate could expand if
adequate financing was available (NBSAP target 12% by
2020).
- The experience of Agency for Protected Areas thus far
demonstrates the potential to grow its own revenues at
significant rates.
- High levels of own revenues greatly enhance the financial
sustainability of PA systems and allow adequate financing of
conservation, research, and management.
Example 2:
- The government is currently improving the EIA process and
the Ministry of Environment is seeking better integration of
biodiversity and ecosystem services into the EIA policy.
- The necessity to improve EIA is illustrated by the plan to
increase the total number of Hydro Power Plants (HPPs)
from existing 64 to 166 by 2022.
- Effective EIA systems ensure that applicants carry the costs of
avoidance and mitigation which would otherwise become
the burden of the state and wider society.
- The proposed government’s EIA reform and improvements
also meet EU harmonization requirements.
An improved EIA system will attract responsible investors (e.g. the

IFC, EBRD, ADB and private banks that are signatories to the
Equator Principles).

4. Structure of the Finance Describe how the finance solution is structured, detailing the
Solution (100 words different mechanisms utilized and how they function.
approx.)
Example:
The USD 50 million Trust Fund will be divided in a USD 35 million
Endowment Fund and a USD 15 million Sinking Fund. The
Endowment Fund will be financing projects in 10 years when the
interests will have grown sufficient and the Sinking Fund will start
financing conservation projects in 2020.
The funds will be received from ODA, government budget and
philanthropy

9. M&E (100 words approx.) How will impact be monitored? List Key Performance Indicators
(KPI) and identify according baselines and targets to be achieved, all
of which helps answer the question: how will we know that the
finance solution has succeeded?
• An indicator is a variable that provides simple and reliable
means to measure achievement, to reflect the changes
connected to an intervention, or to help assess the performance
of an intervention or programme
• Baseline: The indicator value before BIOFIN started (most cases
can be zero - 0)
• Target is the value the indicators aims at after implementation
The LGU partner may select applicable indicators from the

following:

on the specific finance solution by participating in
trainings, workshops, etc. (disaggregated by gender).
o Number of stakeholders with increased practitioner
knowledge on the specific finance solution through direct
participation to the implementation of the finance
solution (disaggregated by gender).
• Number of partnerships for this solution (i.e. signing an MOU,
being part of the implementing partners, being part of a work
plan for the implementation of a final solution) disaggregated
