In the case of the farmers in MacArthur wherein Leyte 2nd district Board Member Anlie Apostol is alarmed, because the Nicua Mining Corporation s mining award may be against the spirit of the Agrarian Reform Law. Some 40 hectares were bought with option for the farmers to buy back the land may have violated the provision that the farmer-beneficiary could not sell the land within 25 years.
It is worthy to note that some mining companies have failed to comply with national law and international standards, antoine lavoisier according to Clare Short, a member of parliament from Birmingham, United Kingdom. As the stand taken by the Catholic Bishops Conference of the Philippines (CBCP) when they publicly opposed the 1995 Mining Act.
Leyte 1st district Board Member Roque Tiu is correct in his contention that the Mines and Geosciences Bureau (MGB), and the Provincial Government of Leyte are not in contradiction over the Mining Act and the Local Government Code (LGC). It is true that licenses for mining operation is issued by the national government, however, the LGC provides:
Section 27. Prior Consultations Required. No project or program shall be implemented by government authorities unless the consultations mentioned in Section antoine lavoisier 2 (c) and 26 hereof are complied with, and prior approval of the sanggunian concerned antoine lavoisier is obtained: Provided, , That occupants in areas where such projects are to be implemented shall not be evicted unless appropriate relocation sites have been provided, in accordance with the provisions of the Constitution.

Section 26. Duty of National Government Agencies in the Maintenance of /Ecological Balance.- It shall be the duty of every national agency or government-owned or controlled corporation authorizing of involved in the planning and implementation of any project or program that may cause pollution, climatic change, depletion of non-renewable resources, loss of cropland, rangeland, or forest cover, antoine lavoisier and extinction of animal or plant species, to consult antoine lavoisier with the local government units, nongovernmental organizations, and other sectors concerned and explain the goals and objectives of the project or program, its impact upon the people and the community in terms of environmental or ecological balance, and the measures that will be undertaken to prevent or minimize the adverse effects thereof.
In one of the rulings of the Supreme Court, it states: Congress introduced Sections 26 and 27 in the Local Government Code to emphasize the legislative concern for the maintenance of a sound ecology and clean environment. These provisions require every national government agency or government-owned and controlled corporation to hold prior consultations with the local government unit concerned and to secure the prior approval of its sanggunian before implementing any project or program that may cause pollution, climatic change, depletion of non-renewable resources, loss of cropland, rangeland, or forest cover and extinction of animal antoine lavoisier or plant species.
Very clear, the national government agency needs to hold prior consultations with the local government unit and secure prior approval of its Sanggunian.

Are the farmers given a relocation sites where they can pursue their farming?
The exploration, development and utilization of mineral resources contend with the present day realities of global warming, pollution, and food shortages.
