ZAMBALES– The Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) recently distributed land titles to residents of Barangay Baloganon, Masinloc, Zambales.

Marife Castillo, provincial head of DENR-Zambales, reported that ten residential free patents or land titles covering 58,625 square meters were distributed during the activity.

Regional Executive Director Ralph Pablo stressed that the “Titling on Wheels” initiative is being implemented to expedite the processing and issuance of public land patents to qualified beneficiaries, allowing the Department’s frontline service more accessible to the public.

“This land titling program will ultimately lead to economic progress by providing security and increased productivity of the people,” Pablo said.

Since January of this year, the DENR here has already distributed over 1,400 residential and agricultural land titles covering over 600 hectares of land in Central Luzon. (PR)
