Since 2010, the PCSD started the monitoring of freshwater/surface water and coastal-marine waters of Palawan, as part of its Environmental Monitoring and Evaluation System. The results of monitoring, which includes the changes in the attributes and characteristics of this environmental medium are submitted to the local government units to serve as guide in policy formulation. These reports are included in the "2015 Update Report on the State of Environment of Palawan, Philippines", which chronicles the environmental changes since the first issue of this State of Environment Report in 2004, and the 2nd issue in 2009-2010.
