Rep. Teddy Brawner Baguilat Jr.
It refers to the branch of environmental engineering in which scientific and engineering concepts and principles are applied to control of air pollutant emissions, their generation and release from a source, their transport and transformation in and removal from the atmosphere, and their effects on human beings, materials, and ecosystems.
Air Pollution Control Engineering
It refers to the branch of environmental engineering concerned with the control of pollutants in; their generation and release from a source, their transport and transformation in and removal from the atmosphere, and their effects on human beings, materials, and ecosystems.
Air Pollution Engineering
It refers to the adjustment in natural or human systems in response to actual or expected climatic stimuli or their effects, which moderates harm or exploits beneficial opportunities.
Climate Change Adaptation
It refers to a serious disruption of the functioning of a community or a society involving widespread human, material, economic or environmental losses and impacts, which exceeds the ability of the affected community or society to cope using its own resources.
Disaster
It refers to the lessening and limitation of the adverse impacts of hazards and related disasters.
Disaster Mitigation
It measures encompass engineering techniques and hazard-resistant construction as well as improved environmental policies and public awareness, land use planning, and climate change.
Mitigation
It refers to the systematic process of using administrative directives, organizations, and operational skills and capacities to implement strategies, policies and improved coping capacities in order to lessen the adverse impacts of hazards and possibility of disaster.
Disaster Risk Management
It refers to the concept and practice of reducing disaster risks through systematic efforts to analyze and manage casual factors of disasters, including through reduced exposure of hazards, lessened vulnerability of people and property, wise management of land and environment, and improved preparedness of adverse events.
Disaster Risk Reduction
It refers to an environmental engineering practitioner duly registered with the Board and the Commission to practice environmental engineering defined in this Act.
Environmental Engineer
It encompasses the application of science and engineering principles to protect and improve the environment, including the air, water, and land resources, to provide safe water, air, and land for human habitation and for other organisms and to rehabilitate polluted sites, solid waste management, environmental impact assessment, environmental risk assessment and management, atmospheric pollution abatement, noise pollution abatement, conservation and protection of water resources, classification of water, protection of watersheds, and management of toxic and hazardous substances and radiological pollution.
Environmental Engineering
It refers to an environmental engineering practitioner duly registered with the Board and the Commission whose competence lies in the application of environmental engineering technologies.
Environmental Engineering Technologist
An environmental technologist shall also refer to a ___ with civil service elegibility.
sanitary inspector
It refers to an entire spectrum of activities covering environmental impact assessment, water quality management, ambient air quality management, climate change adaptation and mitigation, disaster risk reduction and management, and other programs and strategies to maintain safe and healthy environment and protect public health.
Environmental Engineering Management
It refers to an environmental engineering practitioner duly registered with the Board and the Commission whose role is to apply established methods or techniques of environmental engineering.
Environmental Engineering Technician
An environmental engineering technician shall also refer to as ___.
sanitary inspector
It refers to the branch of Environmental Engineering in which scientific and engineering concepts and principles are applied to the examination of indoor and outdoor environmental quality and condition to identify, monitor, evaluate, eliminate or control of hazards that expose people, environment or property to danger.
Environmental Health and Safety Engineering
It refers to the process that involves predicting and evaluating the likely impacts of a project including cumulative impacts on the environment during construction, commissioning, operation and abandonment.
Environmental Impact Assessment
Republic Act No. 6969
Toxic Substances and Hazardous and Nuclear Waste Control Act of 1990
Republic Act No. ___
Toxic Substances and Hazardous and Nuclear Waste Control Act of 1990
6969
It refers to the branch of environmental engineering that is concerned with the control of the generation and propagation of environmental noise/sound that impact negatively on flora and fauna.
Noise Pollution Control Engineering
It refers to the branch of environmental engineering in which basic principles of science and engineering are applied to responsible mining, milling, processing, refining of radioactive materials, and disposal of any material that contains or is contaminated with radio nuclides at concentrations or activities greater than the clearance levels as established by Philippine Nuclear Research Institute (PNRI).
Radioactive and Nuclear Waste Management
