House of Representatives

Subject: Request for explanation and documents on FY2027 DPWH budget lines for Catanduanes (Lone District)

Dear Representative Eulogio "Leo" R. Rodriguez:

Good day. I live in Catanduanes (Lone District), and I would like to ask about some DPWH lines for the Catanduanes 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 Seawall at Baragany Bislig, San Andres, Catanduanes (Catanduanes DEO): not in the NEP; ₱40,000,000 in the House version. [HB 10858 (3rd Reading) Vol. I-C, p. 344; no matching NEP line for this office]
2. Construction of Flood Mitigation Structure, Pajo San Isidro, Virac, Catanduanes (Catanduanes DEO): not in the NEP; ₱40,000,000 in the House version. [HB 10858 (3rd Reading) Vol. I-C, p. 344; no matching NEP line for this office]
3. Construction of Seawall at Barangay Baybay, Municipality of Caramoran, Catanduanes (Catanduanes DEO): not in the NEP; ₱40,000,000 in the House version. [HB 10858 (3rd Reading) Vol. I-C, p. 344; no matching NEP line for this office]
4. Construction of Seawall at Barangay Sabangan, Municipality of Caramoran, Catanduanes (Catanduanes DEO): not in the NEP; ₱40,000,000 in the House version. [HB 10858 (3rd Reading) Vol. I-C, p. 344; no matching NEP line for this office]
5. Construction of Seawall at Barangay Marinawa, Bato, Catanduanes (Catanduanes DEO): not in the NEP; ₱30,000,000 in the House version. [HB 10858 (3rd Reading) Vol. I-C, p. 344; no matching NEP line for this office]
6. Construction of Seawall at Barangay Baldoc, Pandan, Catanduanes (Catanduanes DEO): not in the NEP; ₱20,000,000 in the House version. [HB 10858 (3rd Reading) Vol. I-C, p. 344; no matching NEP line for this office]
7. Construction of Seawall at Barangay Pananaogan, Bato, Catanduanes (Catanduanes DEO): not in the NEP; ₱20,000,000 in the House version. [HB 10858 (3rd Reading) Vol. I-C, p. 344; no matching NEP line for this office]
8. Construction (Completion) of Multi-Purpose Building at Barangay Calatagan Tibang, and Barangay Sogod Tibgao, Virac, Catanduanes, 13.59495555556, 124.22824444444 (Catanduanes DEO): not in the NEP; ₱9,000,000 in the House version. [HB 10858 (3rd Reading) Vol. I-C, p. 795; no matching NEP line for this office]
9. Construction (Completion) of Multi-Purpose Building at Valencia Elementary School and Palta Elementar School, Virac, Catanduanes, 13.61355833333, 124.16692833333 (Catanduanes DEO): not in the NEP; ₱6,000,000 in the House version. [HB 10858 (3rd Reading) Vol. I-C, p. 795; no matching NEP line for this office]
10. Construction (Completion) of Bridge at Barangay JMA (Tucao), San Miguel, Catanduanes, 13.74124, 124.24218 (Catanduanes DEO): not in the NEP; ₱5,000,000 in the House version. [HB 10858 (3rd Reading) Vol. I-C, p. 556; 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:
- Catanduanes DEO: 1,002 contracts (2016–2025) in public DPWH records; 880 recorded as completed and 78 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:
- Construction of Bato River Control, Bato, Catanduanes (22FH0033): Duplicate or Near-Duplicate Projects. https://lovethephilippines.com/projects/2b78aaa9-018f-4533-a2fd-c569e7bff97d
- Construction of Breakwater Phase 2, Palnab, Virac, Catanduanes (22FH0067): Duplicate or Near-Duplicate Projects. https://lovethephilippines.com/projects/b2b87343-8e2a-4513-b173-f032f218b131
- Construction of Breakwater, Palnab, Virac, Catanduanes (22FH0017): Duplicate or Near-Duplicate Projects. https://lovethephilippines.com/projects/168a35d2-5033-4a78-ad24-2cd716e67181

I am asking only for information and am not alleging any wrongdoing. Thank you for your time and your reply.

Respectfully,
[Your name]
[Barangay, city or municipality]

Past DPWH contracts under this office

1,002 contracts from 2016 to 2025 in public DPWH records (₱15.35B): 880 recorded as completed, 78 as ongoing. 938 have a satellite image check on file. Browse them.

3 past contracts marked by public-data indicators

Indicators are automated statistical checks on public data. They are not findings of wrongdoing, and a marked contract may have a full explanation.

How this was made. House lines come from the native text of House Bill No. 10858, third reading, Vol. I-C (official record); every one of the 15,977 amounts was checked against its printed page. NEP lines come from the FY2027 National Expenditure Program, Vol. II-B as read by the open BetterGov DPWH NEP–HB analysis. Lines are matched by office and title. A line marked “added” had no matching title under the same office in the NEP; “uncertain” means a similar title appears in the DPWH Transparency NEP listing or our own NEP reading, or the scan reading of the NEP amount needs a check. Past contracts and indicators come from public DPWH records on this site.
