To provide a more accessible and transparent public land titling, the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) is bringing operations down to the villages to accept applications for titling of public alienable and disposable lands.
DENR Secretary Roy Cimatu has issued DENR Administrative Order (DAO) No. 2019-08 instructing all Provincial Environment and Natural Resources Offices (PENROs) and Community Environment and Natural Resources Offices (CENROs) to accept public land titling applications at the barangay level.
