RA 7916 (Special Economic Zone Act of 1995), as amended by RA 8748. The President may designate/include areas for SEZ/Ecozone pursuant to the law and based on the recommendation of the PEZA Board of Directors.
The Board of Directors of the Philippine Economic Zone Authority (PEZA).
It means the land inclusion is not unconditional; it must comply with statutory requirements under RA 7916/IRR and with PEZA’s governing rules and resolutions (e.g., PEZA Board Resolution No. 18-412 (s. 2018) referenced in the text).
To precisely identify the exact lands included—by metes and bounds, boundary calls, reference plans, and TCT details—ensuring legal certainty and enforceability of the land designation.
TCT numbers identify the specific registered titles/land parcels covered, linking the proclamation to specific parcels in the Registry of Deeds and supporting the accuracy of the area and boundaries.
They indicate areas within the included territory that are allocated for watercourses (canals/creeks) and legally reserved access/utility/easement strips, affecting how the land may be used within the Ecozone.
It means a portion of the land is set aside as an easement corridor; it remains subject to the legal limitations and purpose of an easement, typically restricting full ownership use and preserving access/servitude rights.
It likely approves the inclusion/processed application, confirming PEZA’s endorsement and compliance with procedural and technical requirements under RA 7916 and its IRR.
Generally, the designation/inclusion into an SEZ/Ecozone does not, by itself, transfer ownership. It subjects the area to the regulatory and incentive framework of the SEZ/Ecozone under RA 7916. Transfer would require separate legal instruments (e.g., sale, lease, expropriation, or other conveyances).
Because metes-and-bounds precision and survey data are needed for legal identification. “True bearings” and the survey dates support reliability of the mapping and minimize boundary disputes.
It refers to the lot/plan number/approved subdivision survey plan used to reference the specific parcels within the Hermosa Cadastre.
Resurvey dates can affect the correctness/updates of the technical description used for inclusion; it helps establish that the metes-and-bounds data are based on the approved resurvey plan.
SEZ/Ecozone boundaries often follow legal lot lines, titles, easements, and internal features (roads, canals, creeks). Listing each parcel ensures the SEZ perimeter matches the approved cadastral subdivision.
Presidential authority under RA 7916 (as amended), PEZA Board recommendation/endorsement (including cited resolution), subject-to compliance with RA 7916/IRR, clear identification of land by location, total area, and detailed technical descriptions (TCT, plan references, metes-and-bounds, bearings, survey/resurvey and approval dates).
