DENR issued tree-cutting permit – Napocor

The National Power Corporation (Napocor) on Monday clarified that it has only issued “land use permit” to the Angat Hydropower Corp. (AHC) for its implementation of the Angat Dam and Dyke Strengthening Project.

It was the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) which issued the “tree-cutting permit” that authorized the Korean Water-SMC joint venture to cut a number of trees for the temporary campsite for the project, the state-owned corporation said.
