INTRODUCTION
Water is one of the most vital natural resources for all life on Earth. The availability and
quality of water have always played an important role in the preservation of a unique
ecosystem. Even though there always has been plenty of water on Earth, water has not always
been available when and where it is needed, nor is it always of suitable quality for all uses.
Water can be considered as a finite resource that has limits and boundaries to its availability
and suitability for use.
In agriculture, water is an essential factor in attaining productivity and quality outputs. It is
also essential to bring forth the potential of the land and to enable improved varieties of both
plants and animals to make full use of other yield-enhancing production factors. By raising
productivity, sustainable water management (especially when combined with adequate soil
husbandry) helps to ensure better production both for direct consumption and for commercial
disposal, so enhancing the generation of necessary economic surpluses for uplifting rural
economies.
In connection to that, the construction of Small Water Impounding Project (SWIP) is one of
the most feasible options in order to ensure water availability in rural areas where scarcity of
supply is evident. SWIP is a structure constructed across a narrow depression or valley to
hold back water and develop a reservoir that will store rainfall and run-off during the rainy
season for immediate or future use.
Thus, this study focuses on the evaluation of the existing SWIP located at Agani Alcala,
Cagayan with a catchment area of 100 hectares, catering seventy-three (73) hectares of
agricultural field which is further divided into seven (7) division boxes. It aims to meet the
following objectives:

1. To evaluate the current status of the Agani Small Water Impounding Project (SWIP).
2. To determine the impact of the Agani SWIP at the community in terms of Social,
Environmental, Socio-economical, and Economic aspects.
3. Comparison between the situation before and after the SWIP was implemented.

METHODOLOGY
This study adopts a simple method of research, wherein it made use of the three basic
components of research methods; in-depth key informant interviews, review of public
documents and focus group discussions.
RESEARCH METHODS

In-depth Interviews
- The group conducted series of interviews with the farmer-beneficiaries from
different rural areas in the province. The in-depth key informant interviews were
used because this method is very appropriate in obtaining primary information
from a limited set of samples (I.G. Lopez, 2013, p.9).

Document Analysis
- Printed public documents related to water impounding and flood control systems
were used in order to obtain advanced information to verify/ corroborate data from
the interviews and vice versa.

Focus Group Discussions


- After tabulating the data gathered on the long-run interviews, series of group
discussions are then conducted by the group wherein every datum is carefully
weighed and examined in order to come up with concepts and verify the findings
and conclusions.

SAMPLING

In terms of selecting research participants, a set of respondents were then identified,


the researcher/s provided room for flexibility to include new respondents and take
advantage of new needs, information and opportunities as the data collection
progresses.

PROJECT OVERVIEW
Small Water Impounding Project (SWIP)
Is a structure constructed across a narrow depression or valley to hold back water and
develop a reservoir that will store rainfall and run-off during the rainy season for immediate
or future use. The Small Water Impounding Management Committee (SWIM) once headed
by the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) classified small water
impounding projects as earthen dams with structural heights of not more than 30 meters and a
volume storage not exceeding 50 million cubic meters. In line with the provision of the
Agriculture and Fishery Modernization Act of 1997 (AFMA), the Bureau of Soils and Water
Management (BSWM) shall be responsible for the delivery of technical assistance in relation
to dams 15 meters or lower. (DA-BSWM, SWIP pp.2)
PURPOSE OF SWIP
SWIP is more than providing irrigation to marginal upland areas. The Project facilitates
multiple uses of stored water in terms of the following benefits:
Provides water for supplemental irrigation, domestic purposes and livestock production in
critical, less accessible upland areas and isolated, vulnerable resource-poor communities;
Enhances upland productivity with strong sense of responsibility among farmers while
ensuring environmental sustainability;
Facilitates inland fish production through the culture of freshwater fish, shrimps, eels and
other native freshwater species;

Contributes in combating local malnutrition problems and helps in alleviating poverty in the
uplands;
Serves as strategic small-scale upland structure of flood prevention and control in high
rainfall areas to ensure whole-year round agricultural production, and for soil and water
conservation in areas with distinct wet and dry seasons to increase cropping intensity and
enhance crop diversification;
Enhances and facilitates recharging of groundwater and spring sources for domestic and
other uses;
Provides other environmental impacts such as maintaining important habitat for wildlife and
biodiversity, thus, augmenting government efforts in protecting our environment; and
Provides recreational facilities as swimming and picnic grounds for local rural communities.

THE AGANI SWIP


A. DESCRIPTION OF THE PROJECT
The Agani SWIP is a project funded by the Asian Development Bank (through ADB Loan)
and was implemented by the Department of Agrarian Reform and the Local Government
Unit of Alcala Cagayan. The Total cost of the project is 9,921,407.82 Php. The project
construction started on December 21, 2001 and was completed on May 30, 2002.
The project is a Small Water Impounding Project consisting of two major components to
complete an irrigation system namely the dam and canal. It is noteworthy to mention that
this project is the 5th SWIP project of the municipality. The dam is constructed principally of
homogenous materials that are just within the vicinity of the construction site, cutting such
considerable cost as compared to a concrete dam. The watershed area is about 100 hectares
and the Agani creek which is the main water source has never dried up ever since.

The storage capacity of the reservoir is about 800,000 m3. The spillway width is 10 m. and
is being considered as the safety valve of the dam. The outlet structure is equipped with
0.30 m. diameter B.I. pipe, a trash rack on the intake to screen of debris and a gate valve
installed at the outlet to regulate water flow.

The canal system has several structures. Division boxes are provided at strategic locations
to distribute irrigation water to laterals. Siphon which was originally planned for creek
crossing was change to a concrete partial flume. Actual condition reveals that sediment
formation will not be avoided on siphon. A stretch of about 1.55 km. Irrigation canals have
been completed catering the 73 hectares serviceable area of the project.

Thus, the study attempts to answer the following questions:


1. Is the existing SWIP economically acceptable from the time it was constructed up to the
present?
2. Is the existing SWIP socially acceptable to the affected citizens within the area of
serviceability?
3. Is the existing SWIP complying with the standards of Environmental Assessments?
RESULTS OF SWIP IMPLEMENTATION

SOCIO-ECONOMIC
1. Before, there was no irrigation fee among farmers. After the construction of the SWIP,
irrigation fee was introduced to the consumers. They are paying now 230 kilograms of fresh
harvested rice grains or approximately equal to 3,000 pesos.
2. Before, the only source of income was agricultural farming but after the construction of the
project, aquatic farming was one of the sources of income of the farmers in the area.
3. Additional job opportunity is also an effect of the project. Because, after the construction of
the project, there exist the Agani Farmers Cooperative.

ENVIRONMENTAL
1. Flood management was one of the best effects of the SWIP. According to the peoples on the
area, before, if there is a heavy rain, direct run-off is experienced by houses on low lying
areas. And now that the project is completed, flood was reduced and it follows that damage
cost was reduced also.
2. Tree planting was promoted after the implementation of the project.
3. After the implementation of the project, habitat for animals was increased.
4. Ground water recharge was exercised. Before the main source of the water for farming are
deep wells. Due to the presence of the project, installation of pumped wells was limited.

SOCIAL
1. The formation of Farmers Cooperative promotes cooperation and coordination among
farmers.
2. Additional knowledge for the consumers. The cooperative was conducting seminars
regarding modern farming and practices.
3. Farmers are oriented on the importance of water preservation.
4. Additional livelihood to the citizens of Agani due to free allocation of tilapia fingerlings
from different government agencies and private agencies.
5. Promotes social equality among the citizens of the area.

ECONOMICAL
1. Profit was increased due to the presence of the Agani SWIP. The usual one cropping per year
was changed to two cropping even three cropping per year.
2. Promotes monetary savings for the families with in the area due to the free harvest of tilapia
and clams.
TECHNICAL ASPECTS
CHANGES OF THE PROJECT AFTER 15 YEARS
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.

The volume that the dam can accumulate decreased due to increase of sediments.
Earth canals are being filled with earth materials due to the erosion of the soil.
Some of the canals were destroyed due to bad practice of some of the farmers.
Some parts of the spillway were destroyed
Due to excessive use of pesticides, the quality of the soil surrounding the project becomes

porous which leads to soil erosion causing sedimentation in SWIP.


6. The design slope on the embankment changes due to soil erosion and because of animals that
was sheltering there.
7. Growth of grasses along the embankment of the project.
8. Some parts of the valve box were destroyed and are not functioning well anymore.
9. Due to exposure to water, steel structures such as gate valves, measuring device and pipes
have rusted.

1. PROBLEMS OBSERVED
2. Devastation of planted rice plants on areas near the spillways disposal area.
3. Disputes on water distribution management system.
4. Undisciplined behaviour of some farmers from damaging the earth canal structures just to
convey water to their farm.
5. Lack of funds for the completion of the project, which further resulted to water supply
shortfall on division 7.
6. Disobedience of some in the community particularly those who shepherds their carabaos in
the bank storage, which is actually against the policies and rules governing the project.
7. Scouring on the spillway, at the part with the lowest elevation, and damage on the spillway
itself.
8. Sedimentation on the storage.

SOCIO-ECONOMIC IMPACT
Basing on the results of our survey conducted within the area of concern, there is a positive social
response with respect to the provision of the Agani SWIP. There is an evident boost on rice
production and a significant development in Agricultural Industry of the community as a whole.

The farmer association formed prior to the formal opening of the completed project was been
able to create their own cooperative, the Agani Farmers Cooperative, where-in all beneficiaries
are required to be a member.
The Agani Farmers Cooperative collects the fees and other dues from the farmer-beneficiaries
and is responsible for the maintenance of the project. The cooperative has been able to offer its
members the privilege to enjoy loans such as emergency & character loan and provide assistance
for its members during planting seasons.
The Department of Agriculture, through the cooperative, donates thousands of fingerlings which
is then released and cultured at the main reservoir for human consumption.

After the conduct of the actual site visit, it has been observed that the project as expected was
considered as a potential venue for environmental sustainability. The proponents believe that the
project does not pose a danger to the environment but rather helps in the preservation of the area. In
fact, the officials are encouraging the residents to plant fruit bearing trees on the watershed to prevent
soil erosion and preserve the area. Local Government Unit of the Municipality of Alcala shows its
support to the preservation of the site by means of drafting rules and ordinances pursuant to the
principles of environmental sustainability. Environmental Compliance Certificate from the
Department of Environment and Natural Resources has been secured before the implementation of
the project.

CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS


The study discussed the evaluation of the SWIP from the time of completion up to the current
operation. In connection to this, the project assessment is successful only that the said project was
not given due importance.
Water management should be examined in the general framework of sustainable development goal
that address environmental challenges (e.g. land degradation, bio-diversity decline), attainment of
economic targets, and provision of social needs.
Nevertheless, the project had some gaps with regards to the distribution. The following are the
recommendations to be considered.

1. It needs an enabling environment in terms of a unified water-related policies, institutional


arrangements, and financing mechanisms to address the threat of the present and future water
insecurity.

2. Coordination

and cooperation among the farmers and the Local Government Units to

preserve the watershed area.

3. Proper orientation and dissemination of the importance of the project must be conducted.
4. Allocation of additional funds for the continuation of the construction of canals to support all
the divisions.
