Parcels I and II shall have a total area of approximately SEVEN THOUSAND EIGHT HUNDRED THIRTY TWO (7,832) HECTARES which shall be known as Calbayog Pan-as Hayiban Protected Landscape. It shall be under the administrative jurisdiction of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) and shall be administered by the Protected Area Management Board (PAMB) as constituted pursuant to RA 7586 otherwise known as the NIPAS Act of 1992 and its implementing rules and regulations.
The purpose of the establishment of Pan-as Hayiban Protected Landscape is to protect and conserve the ecological, biological, scientific and educational features of the area.
Insofar as the rules and regulations over natural parks consistent with the provisions of NIPAS Act, they shall continue to apply until Congress shall otherwise declare. All other applicable laws shall remain in full force and effect.
The DENR shall prioritize the implementation of the General Management Planning Strategy (GMPS) boundary relocation and the appointment of the Protected Area Staff in the area covered.
A person qualifying for a tenured migrants status as of the effectivity of the NIPAS Act shall be eligible to become a steward of a portion of land within the appropriate management zones of the protected area and from which he may derive subsistence.
The PAMB appointed by the Secretary shall perform such powers and duties as specified in the NIPAS Act and as delegated to it by the Secretary under such Act. All decisions made pursuant to those rules and regulations shall have the force and effect of acts of a final PAMB under the NIPAS Act.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereto set my hand and caused the seal of the Republic of the Philippines to be affixed.
Done in the City of Manila, this 3rd day of February, in the year of our Lord, Nineteen Hundred and Ninety-Eight.
