Bolusao Watershed Forest Reserve is a reserve and ecotourism site in Barangay Bolusao, Lawaan, Eastern Samar, Philippines.[1][2] Designated mainly to preserve and maintain the usefulness of the Bolusao River as a source of water for domestic use and irrigation in the area, it is now being revitalized as a sustainable energy source through Amanjuray falls' energy-generating Bolusao mini-hydro power plant, providing power to the residents of Lawaan and Balangiga in Eastern Samar.[3][4][5]
