Pasig River Integrated and Strategic Master Plan (PRISM) completed

Finally, the Pasig River Integrated and Strategic Master Plan (PRISM) design has been completed. Thanks to the Pasig River Rehabilitation Commission (PRRC) and UP PLANADES for the joint effort.

PRISM envisions that by 2032, Pasig River and its surrounding basins will be resilient life-sustaining ecosystems that are able to support diverse human needs and biodiversity towards inclusive, harmonized, and balanced development co-managed by competent and adaptive institutions with responsible and empowered communities.

Among the 19 priority projects proposed in the PRISM is the integrated wastewater treatment systems. Completion of this will help improve the water quality of the Pasig River, and for concerned agencies to comply with concession agreement and other environmental laws.

Integrated Wastewater Treatment System

This new restoration strategy covers water quality management, stream flow management, catchment management and riparian management so that the Pasig River will again enshrine socioeconomic, aesthetic, environmental, recreational and cultural values amid changing risks and natural perturbations.
