A portion of Gov. Erico Aumentado's 2004 Accomplishment Report1. The P3.1-billion Leyte-Bohol Interconnection Project (LBIP) Phases I and II are now completed. The LBIP is now providing Bohol with 100 megawatts of geothermal energy from the Tongonan Geothermal Power Plant in Leyte via submarine cables to Bohol. This would make the province energy sufficient for the next 10 years.
2. The P1.58-billion Bohol Circumferential Road Improvement Project (BCRIP) Phase II is now on-going. BCRIP II covers 136 kilometers of portland cement concrete pavement (PCCP) and about 20 kilometers of concrete asphalt. It traverses the highways from Calape to Valencia via Tagbilaran City (Package I) under contract by Hanjin Heavy Industries and Construction Co., Ltd., and from Candijay to Valencia (Package II) undertaken by C.M. Pancho Construction Co. and China State Construction Co., Ltd.
3. The P2.384-billion Bohol Irrigation Project (BHIP) Stage II can irrigate 5,300 hectares more of rice land in San Miguel, Trinidad and Ubay. The project is on-going, under contract also by Hanjin.
4. On stream is the proposed P4.2-billion Panglao Island Airport Development Project. This is a domestic airport-but of international standard – as recently approved by President Arroyo and her Cabinet under the Medium Term Investment Philippine Development Program (2004-2010).
