145 - Undertake ecosystem enrichment planting

146 - Identify and focus on sensitive/vulnerable ecosystems for management

150 - Provide awareness on the importance of water catchment areas for water quality

151 - Establish protected areas over sensitive water catchments

152 - Reforest and rehabilitate forests within sensitive watershed and catchment areas

153 - Place and enforce buffer zones around streams and water sources
