Province reports a monthly record of P88.3 million in January 2023, breaking the old record of P82.1 million in March 2021.
CITY OF SAN FERNANDO, Philippines – Pampanga province quarry collections in January 2023 reached an all-time, monthly record of P88.291 million, Governor Dennis “Delta” Pineda announced in a statement on Tuesday, February 7.Total revenues from sand and gravel hit P2.506 billion in 41 months from July 2019, Pineda said, indicating the sector had held up during the COVID-19 pandemic that shook the national economy from 2020 to mid-2022.
The province’s income dropped to P23.653 million in August 2022 when the governor suspended quarry and hauling operations for 15 days to enforce measures against overloading along the North Luzon Expressway, national and local roads. The COVID-19 pandemic had temporarily disrupted quarrying and hauling, as the national government’s hard lockdown in April 2020 halted most economic activity in the province, including quarry operations.
Most quarry operations in the province come from sites with sand and gravel from the 1991 Mt. Pinatubo eruption. The P150-sand tax is shared at 40-30-30-percent among barangays, towns or cities and the province, based on the Local Government Code of 1991.
