In response to the request of First District Representative Edgar Chatto, the Governor's Office has urged the Provincial Board to pass a resolution facilitating the conversion of the provincial road connecting the municipalities of Balilihan and Batuan into a national road.
In a letter to Vice-Governor Julius Caesar Herrera dated February 6, 2008, Governor Erico B. Aumentado urged PB to pass a resolution facilitating the conversion of the Balilihan-Batuan provincial road that traverses barangay Hanopol in Balilihan into a national road.
In his January 29 letter to Governor Aumentado, Chatto explained that the PB resolution is necessary in the administrative process of converting the road into a national road.
Facilitating the conversion of the road can either be through the passage of House Bill 871 which is now pending in Congress or through administrative process pursuant to Administrative Order 113 of 1953 which grants such power to the secretary of the Department or Public Works and Highways, Chatto explained.
