SUBJECT:
|
ISSUANCE OF CERTIFICATE OF TITLES TO LANDS COVERING TIMBERLAND OR FOREST LAND |
The Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) has
called the attention of this Office regarding the practice of some
courts issuing decrees for the titling of lands covering Timberland or
Forestland without the required Certification from the DENR.
In this connection, you are hereby directed that before acting on
applications for the titling of lands, it is a condition that you must
require the applicant to submit the required CERTIFICATION issued by the Community Environment and Natural Resources Office (CENRO)
having jurisdiction over the land subject of the application for
titling/registration. This supporting document confirms the legal
classification of the subject land per verification of available records
on land classification and cadastral maps.
