The DENR in collaboration with Metropolitan Waterworks and Sewerage System (MWSS), shall create a Multi-Sectoral Watershed Management Council, which shall act as oversight and policy making body over the watershed, in accordance with existing laws, rules and regulations.

Relative thereto, the Management Council shall prepare an integrated watershed management and development plan to include among others, intensive restoration and rehabilitation, water quality monitoring, and delineation of buffer zone.

This Proclamation shall take effect upon its publication in a national newspaper of general circulation.1aшphi1
