    This memorandum order from the Department of Environment and Natural Resources establishes uniform replacement ratios for cut or relocated trees in the Philippines. It specifies that tree cutting permits covered by exemptions will have a replacement ratio of 1:100, following the October 2011 memorandum from the Executive Secretary. For other tree cutting permits, there will be no replacements required for trees planted exclusively for timber production on private or forest lands. Planted trees on other private and forest lands will have a 1:50 replacement ratio, while naturally growing trees on those lands, including trees affected by development projects, will have a 1:100 replacement ratio in support of reforestation initiatives. Donated seedlings must be properly recorded and planting sites delineated and mapped to facilitate monitoring
