Water quality monitoring was successfully conducted last January 22,2026 within the municipal waters as part of our continuing efforts to protect and sustain marine resources. This activity helps assess the condition of the water, safeguard aquatic life, and support the livelihood of our fisherfolk. Through regular monitoring and responsible management, we reaffirm our commitment to environmental protection and sustainable fisheries for present and future generations. Sama-sama para sa malinis, ligtas, at masaganang karagatan.

The LGU - Bani, Pangasinan joined the BBBIDA 1st Quarter Simultaneous Coastal Clean - Up on January 15,2026 in Barangays San Simon, Centro Toma, Dacap Sur, and Colayo, as well in the Bangrin Marine Protected Area. It was participated by the municipal employees, PNP, BFP, barangay councils, bantay dagat, bantay gubat, youth representatives, and fisherfolk residents.

The activity was led by our supportive mayor, Hon. Facundo O. Palafox, Jr., which aims to increase public awareness and community responsibility on waste management to promote behavioral change, and community engagement. The removal of trash along coastal areas prevents water contamination that affects marine life. Also, a clean environment attracts people and boosts the tourism industry in the municipality.

The Philippinesโ€™ mangrove forests have emerged as some of the most efficient carbon sinks on the planet, storing immense amounts of carbon dioxide both in their dense biomass and deep soils. Beyond mitigating climate change, these coastal ecosystems serve as natural shields against storm surges and flooding, safeguarding communities and infrastructure from increasingly severe weather events. Their unique combination of ecological and protective functions makes them invaluable to both the environment and human livelihoods.

Despite their significance, mangroves face constant threats from urban development, aquaculture, and logging, which compromise their carbon storage and coastal protection capabilities. Researchers stress that conservation and restoration initiatives are essential to maintain the resilience of these ecosystems, ensuring that mangroves continue to provide critical climate regulation and disaster mitigation services for future generations.

Palafox, Jr., the Municipality of Bani has intensified its Coastal Resource Management (CRM) program through mangrove planting. The activity aims to replace dead mangrove plants caused by the previous strong typhoons that hit the municipality. Following the MFARMC meeting on November 28, 2025, the community successfully mobilized to plant 4,000 mangrove seedlings requested from the Provincial Government of Pangasinan at the Provincial Mangrove Nursery of Pangasinan located in the town of Bolinao. This effort specifically targets riverine areas damaged by recent typhoons Emong and Uwan.

"Mangroves are the lifeblood of our rivers," the efforts of fisherfolk, highlight their role in protecting riverbanks and replenishing local fish stocks. The success of the activity shows the good cooperation among the LGU, FARMCs, Barangay Councils, and local fisherfolk, proving that environmental protection is a shared priority in Bani.

Palafox, Jr., through its Office of the Municipal Agriculturist, conducted a reorganization program to strengthen its Fisheries and Aquatic Resources Management Council (FARMC). The activity aims to empower fisherfolks in protecting and managing marine ecosystems. As a fisherfolk council and a recommendatory body for fishery matters, the voice of the FARMCs ensures that policies are effective, and responsive to the local needs of fisherfolk communities. The collective actions of LGU, Barangay Councils, FARMCs, and communities facilitate changes towards a long - term sustainability of the fisheries industry in the municipality.
