    The document discusses water as one of the most vital resources for life. It notes that fresh water makes up only 1% of the total water on Earth, and almost 50% of fresh water sources are already depleted. Major issues discussed include water scarcity and the need for continued supply of clean water for human and other living things. The document outlines Philippine laws and policies around classifying and setting water quality standards for water bodies, as well as requirements for facilities that discharge wastewater, including the need to obtain discharge permits.
