|July 11, 2025
THE Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) said it proposed to plant 3 million trees along the Upper Marikina River Basin Protected Landscape (UM-RBPL) over the next three years.
This is expected to increase the protected landscape’s forest cover to 43% from 24.99%, the DENR said in a statement.
The protected area covers 26,125.64 hectares in the city of Antipolo and in the municipalities of Baras, Rodriquez, San Mateo and Tanay, all in Rizal province.
The UMRBPL was proclaimed a protected area through Proclamation No. 296 dated Sept. 26, 2011, two years after Super Typhoon Ondoy inundated Rizal Province, Marikina City, and Metro Manila.
The proclamation calls for the protection of its watersheds and sustainable management of its natural resources.
