Looking from above the Seven Crater Lakes, Arrangement, and Limitation of Aquaculture Structure

The Seven Crater Lakes—Sampaloc Lake, Bunot Lake, Palakpakin Lake, Pandin Lake, Yambo Lake, Mohicap Lake, and Calibato Lake—are work-in-progress to address and conclude the aquaculture structure impediments. This paper examines the aquaculture structure’s configuration of the maar lakes by looking into the fish cage zone’s arrangement and limitation attributes. This academic work embraces a subjective-qualitative approach and takes from the above perspective. The inferences are: [1] Pandin Lake, Yambo Lake, Mohicap Lake, and Sampaloc Lake have attained the fish cage structures’ restriction, i.e. Sampaloc Lake has accomplished, whereas Pandin Lake, Yambo Lake, and Mohicap Lake have to be satisfied the fish cage structures’ dimension, alignment, and distance; [2] Palakpakin Lake has confirmed the fish cage structures’ reduction, as well as the fish cage structures’ dimension, alignment, and distance, i.e. Palakpakin Lake shows that the aquaculture structure’s configuration has not been strictly observed and, hence, this requires stringent implementation; and [3] Bunot Lake and Calibato Lake have not yet conformed to the fish cage structures’ reduction, as well as the fish cage structures’ dimension, alignment, and distance. Bunot Lake and Calibato Lake are still behind the rest and, thus, these necessitate responding urgently. Overall, these central features are rudimentary but essential requirements in the crater lakes—whether complementing, reciprocating, or augmenting from conservation-development connection to the aquaculture-tourism nexus.
