1.0 INTRODUCTION The Philippine Environment Partnership Program (PEPP) is a program of the Environmental Management Bureau of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (EMB-DENR) that intends to build partnerships with establishments based on trust, commitment, and compliance. The Program aims to provide rewards and incentives to establishments with demonstrated superior environmental performance; or offer assistance to establishments aiming for improved environmental performance but are not yet in full compliance with environmental laws, rules, and regulations.
2.0 OBJECTIVES AND SCOPE OF PEPP POLICY The PEPP is established with the end-view of strengthening voluntary compliance through rewards, incentives, and/or assistance. It is designed to promote sustainable development by encouraging establishments to engage in mandatory self-monitoring; comply with all environmental laws, rules, and regulations; and enhance environmental performance. Specifically, the PEPP has the following objectives:
Strengthen implementation of self-monitoring of establishments and compliance with environmental regulations
Provide assistance to establishments that are unable to comply with environmental regulations but are committed to improve their environmental performance
Provide rewards and incentives to establishments that achieve environmental performance beyond the compliance level
The PEPP shall apply to all establishments that are being regulated by EMB-DENR. The Program covers two categories or tracks, which will be discussed respectively in Section 3 and Section 4 of this Procedural Manual. 3.0 TRACK 1 PROGRAM The PEPP Track 1 covers establishments with demonstrated superior environmental performance. The PEPP aims to encourage these establishments to go beyond
compliance by recognizing their environmental achievement through rewards and incentives. Through the PEPP, EMB-DENR intends to create a ripple effect of superior environmental performance among various establishments and industries in the country. The succeeding subsections discuss the qualification criteria for Track 1 applicants, the rewards and incentives to be availed by Track 1 awardees, and the whole Track 1 implementation process.

6.0 PEPP EFFECTIVENESS EVALUATION MEASURES To evaluate the effectiveness of PEPP, its implementation shall be subject to regular monitoring and evaluation by EMB. The following aspects shall be monitored and evaluated: Increase in Number of Track 1 Awardees Program effectiveness can be measured by determining the number of Track 1 awardees annually. EMB’s target for this aspect is that the number of Track 1 awardees will increase annually. Improvement of Environmental Compliance of Track 2 Recipients Improvement of environmental compliance can be measured by determining the percentage of Track 2 recipients with increased EPR. For this aspect, EMB’s target is that Track 2 recipients will achieve 100 percent EPR within the validity period of the ECONA. Mainstreaming to the Environmental Monitoring and Enforcement Division
(EMED) of EMB ROs Since PEPP is just a program of EMB, the ultimate goal is that the program be eventually mainstreamed to EMB ROs and be integrated in their regular enforcement
17
activities. This shall be evaluated by determining the extent and stability of mainstreaming the PEPP in EMB ROs. For this aspect, EMB shall measure the percentage of EMB ROs with Track 1 awardees, with a target of 100 percent or all regions with Track 1 awardees within five (5) years of PEPP implementation. 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 (3) years to assess their appropriateness and/or relevance. 7.0 REVIEW AND REVISION
Any amendments, revisions, or changes to DAO 20AA-ZZ shall trigger the review and amendment or revision of this Procedural Manual. On the other hand, amendment or revision to this Procedural Manual may not require the amendment or revision of DAO 20AA-ZZ, provided that the amendment or revision of this Procedural Manual is still consistent with DAO 20AA-ZZ.

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 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 Evaluation Committee. 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”. 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/s 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. 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.

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” or “N/A” is not allowed. 1.7 ENVIRONMENTAL PERFORMANCE SCORE
Scoring for each criterion is detailed in Section 2.0. After scoring each criterion, the scores are then summed and noted at the bottom cell under this column per module. 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. 2.0 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. 2.1 PD 1586 AND ITS IRR This subsection presents the environmental performance rating worksheet for PD 1586 and its Implementing Rules and Regulations (IRR). Scoring per criterion shall be according to the requirements prescribed by DENR Administrative Order (DAO) 2003-30 and other related orders using the guidelines presented in Table 2.
