Subject: Request for explanation and documents on FY2027 DPWH budget lines for Bukidnon (Second District)

Dear Representative Jonathan Keith T. Flores:

Good day. I live in Bukidnon (Second District), and I would like to ask about some DPWH lines for the Bukidnon 1st DEO in the FY2027 budget. When I compared the National Expenditure Program (NEP) with House Bill No. 10858 (third reading), I noticed the following:

1. Construction of Pedestrian overpass along Sayre Highway, Barangay Casisang, Malaybalay City, Bukidnon (Bukidnon 1st DEO): not in the NEP; ₱40,000,000 in the House version. [HB 10858 (3rd Reading) Vol. I-C, p. 237; no matching NEP line for this office]
2. Construction of Multi-purpose Building, Barangay Poblacion, Cabanglasan, Bukidnon (Bukidnon 1st DEO): not in the NEP; ₱35,000,000 in the House version. [HB 10858 (3rd Reading) Vol. I-C, p. 864; no matching NEP line for this office]
3. Construction of Multi-Purpose Building, Barangay Poblacion, Impasug-ong, Bukidnon (Bukidnon 1st DEO): not in the NEP; ₱35,000,000 in the House version. [HB 10858 (3rd Reading) Vol. I-C, p. 864; no matching NEP line for this office]
4. Construction of Multi-purpose Building, Barangay 6, Malaybalay, Bukidnon (Bukidnon 1st DEO): not in the NEP; ₱35,000,000 in the House version. [HB 10858 (3rd Reading) Vol. I-C, p. 864; no matching NEP line for this office]
5. Construction of Pedestrian Overpass along Aglayan-Zamboanguita Road, Barangay Iba, Cabanglasan, Bukidnon (Bukidnon 1st DEO): not in the NEP; ₱30,000,000 in the House version. [HB 10858 (3rd Reading) Vol. I-C, p. 242; no matching NEP line for this office]
6. Construction of Concrete Road, Barangay Sto. Domingo, San Fernando, Bukidnon, 7.790067, 125.376423 (Bukidnon 1st DEO): not in the NEP; ₱30,000,000 in the House version. [HB 10858 (3rd Reading) Vol. I-C, p. 598; no matching NEP line for this office]

10. Construction of Multi-Purpose Building (Municipal Plaza), Poblacion, Municipality of Lantapan, Bukidnon (Bukidnon 1st DEO): not in the NEP; ₱15,000,000 in the House version. [HB 10858 (3rd Reading) Vol. I-C, p. 864; no matching NEP line for this office]

For each line above, may I ask for:
1. The reason or basis for adding, increasing, reducing or removing it, and who requested it;
2. The feasibility study, program of work, or detailed engineering design, if one exists;
3. The exact location and the expected beneficiaries; and
4. Any earlier projects at the same location and their status.

For context, this is what public DPWH records show for past projects:
- Bukidnon 1st DEO: 1,178 contracts (2016–2025) in public DPWH records; 1,098 recorded as completed and 61 as ongoing.
Some of these were marked by automated indicators on public data. These are not findings of wrongdoing; I would only like an explanation for:
