DENR ADMINISTRATIVE ORDER NO. 2002-22, October 22, 2002
DENR ADMINISTRATIVE ORDER NO. 2002-22, October 22, 2002
In view of the clear provisions of
paragraph (a) of (1) of Section 3.2.5 of Department Administrative Order
No. 18, Series of 2000 (“DAO #2000–18) that the annual imports for the
years 1999 to 2010 shall not exceed the corresponding percentages of the
“1996 recorded imports by weight,” and so as to preclude erroneous
interpretations of the foregoing of DAO 2000-18, Footnote #3 of the
said, DAO, which states that “the 1996 levels were only estimated
consumption based on available data. An allowance of 75% is added to consider unaccounted imports,” is hereby deleted.
The deletion of the said Footnote No. 3
is further justified by the lack of technical, legal and factual bases
therefore, and the clear commitment of the Philippines to the Montreal
Protocol on Substances that deplete the Ozone Layer.
The heretofore Footnote No. 4, onwards, are hereby renumbered accordingly.
All orders, rules and regulations
inconsistent with or contrary to the provisions of this order are hereby
repealed or modified accordingly.
This Order shall take effect 15 days
after publication in the Official Gazette or in at least (2) newspapers
of general circulation.
Adopted: 22 Oct. 2002
