MOUNT TAPULAO ECOTOURISM Sitio Dampay, Brgy Salaza Palauig, Zambales
Overview unt T apu Moun pulao lao , also known as High Peak, is the tallest mountain in Central Luzon at 6,683 feet (2,037 meters) above sea level. It locally called “ tapulao ”, that was named after the Sumatran Pine trees, grow abundantly in the Zambales Mountain range. The semi- temperate climate here allowed for the abundant growth of these pine trees. Mt. Tapulao's summit offers a breath-taking panoramic view of the Zambales mountains on the east, Lingayen gulf to the north, and the South China Sea to the west. Hikers can take an old mining trail of undulating and rolling mountains from Barangay Dampay in Palauig to reach the summit, about 18 kilometers away. DENR Region III has entered into a Memorandum of Agreement with the Local Government of Palauig for the protection and conservation of unique biodiversity found inside the 5,000 hectare Mt. Tapulao area. The Giant Cloud Rat, scientific Phloeomys pallidus , and the newly discovered Rhynchomys tapulao , another species of rodent, are just two of the 85 faunal species found in the area.

RATIONALE The community-based Marine Conservation Project In San Salvador Island (MCPSSI), Masinloc, Zambales has caught national attention when it garnered top award for excellence on local governance in 1996 under the “ Gantimpalang Panglingkod Pook ” (Galing Pook Award), sponsored by the Asian Institute of Management (AIM) and the Local Government Academy (LGA). One of the objectives of the “ Galing Pook Award ” is the establishment of replication models of successful LGU projects. The Local Government Academy (LGA) has identified the Marine Conservation Project in Masinloc as one of the models on environment management. Thus, in February 1997, Masinloc was chosen as one of the eight (8) sites in the Philippines for the establishment of Innovations Laboratory specializing on marine ecology. The aim is to showcase the LGUs strategy in developing and managing a successful community-based resource management project. To date, the LGU-Masinloc has established additional three (3) sites for marine sanctuaries (demonstration sites) in various coastal areas, namely: 50 hectares in Barangay Bani; 20 hectares in Sitio Panglit, San Lorenzo and 4-hectares Giant Clam Project in San Salvador Island. This coral reef project was previously supported by the United Nations Environmental Program. With the installation of the project, LGU learners, residents and other environmental groups will become aware of the benefits of the project and would encourage project replication.
