Municipality of Bagac

General Information

1.1. BRIEF HISTORY


Bagac was founded in the year 1578 by the Franciscan Fathers. Before
Bataan was created as a province in 1754, Bagac used to be a part of
Corrigemento de Mariveles. The name of Bagac was derived during the
arrival of Spaniards in the Philippines. Some of them travelled along the
seacoasts and happened to pass by this place that is partly hidden
between two sharp points extending to the sea. The Spaniards asked
the Aeta, who was travelling with them as their guide, for the name of
that place. The Aeta answered that is called "lumbak" meaning lying
between two hills. As their ship was crossing this place they sighted a
flock of herons flying above them. When the Spaniards inquired about
them to their guide, the Aeta replied, "Iyon po ay mga ibong tagak." And
so from "lumbak" and "tagak" came "bak" and "gak", and soon it
became Bagac.

During the Filipino-Spanish war, the natives of Bagac did their part to
overthrow the Spanish Rule in this part of Bataan. Jose Noriega, the
leader of the local insurrectos led his townmates in their fight for
freedom. Among them were Juan Bantay, Ildefonso Lucas Gonzales,
Juan Quiroz, Leoncio Marquez, Atanacio Paguio, Andres Mandocdoc,
Sotero Palad, Epifanio Noriega and Pablo Dilig, to mention a few.
These brave men killed the Spanish authorities stationed in the town
and offered their lives so that the next generations to follow may be
free from foreign bondage.
In the ensuing Filipino-American war, General Mascardo, together
with his men, evaded the pursuing American troops and found their
way to Bagac by crossing the wilderness of the mountain range to
the western part of Bataan peninsula. In Bagac, General Mascardo,
and his men, one of whom was the late Manuel L. Quezon, camped at
Sitio Caragman. Manuel L. Quezon, then a major, met a Bagac lass
whom he married under Katipunan rites in 1900 in the yard of Mrs.
Florentina Banzon Gutierrez, a rich and influential woman of Bagac,
who acted as sponsor.
Bagac played an important role in the defense of Bataan during the
World War II. The Bagac-Pilar defense line stretching about twentyfive kilometers was never broken, much less penetrated by the
Japanese. The army of Bagac stood its ground despite tremendous

odds and the defense line remained intact until the white flag was
raised signaling the fall of Bataan.
Upon the surrender of Bataan, Bagac has become one of the starting
points in the march of the USAFFE towards Capas, Tarlac. The other one
was Mariveles. The soldiers who were hoarded to a concentration camp
in Capaz walked the whole distance and

along the way, they were stripped and beaten like animals by the
invaders. At the very spot where the infamous Death March started
now stands a marker and a zero kilometer point post.
The history of Bagac also contributes to growth environment. Bagac
was last stand of the Allied Forces in Philippines against the Japanese
during the Second World War. It was between the two points from
where the Zero Kilometer Death March of the prisoners was started
after they lost to Japan in the Battle of Bataan. The Japanese
friendship tower symbolizes the peace and friendship between Japan
and the Philippines. The Shrine of Valor in Mount Samat, only at a
distance of 5 kilometers, is a place of tremendous importance,
commemorating as it does, the heroic deeds of the soldiers who
fought for their country, and delayed the march of the Japanese, a
factor that led to their eventual defeat in the war.

2.2. SOCIAL CONDITIONS


The Social Condition of Bagac is being measured through the
performance of the four sub-sectors comprising the Social
Development Sector, namely: education, health, social welfare, and
protected services.
2.2.1. Health
A. Vital Health Indicators
The status of health condition of Bagac can be viewed in terms of
three (3) major indicators: mortality, morbidity, and nutritional
status. The commonly used indicators for mortality dubbed as the
vital health statistics are Crude Birth Rate (CBR), Crude Death Rate
(CDR), Infant Mortality Rate (IMR), and Maternal Mortality Rate
(MMR). Mortality rate is a measure of the number of deaths (in
general, or due to a specific cause) in some population, scaled to
the size of that population, per unit time. It is typically expressed in
units of deaths per 1,000 individuals per year.
Bagacs CBR has been on a decreasing trend over the last three (3)
years (20102012).
The highest CBR was recorded in 2010 at 29.37 while the lowest
was recorded in 2012 at 20.70. For the last five (5) years (20082012) the Municipalitys CBR has decreased by 3.25 percent.
The Municipalitys CDR is fluctuating over the last five (5) years. The
highest CDR of the Municipality was recorded in 2011 at 4.59. It is
good to note however, that in 2012, it decreased dramatically by
more than one-half at 2.94.
From 2008 to 2011, Bagacs IMR was on an erratic trend though it
showed a decreasing trend over the last three-year period (20102012). Significant decrease (39.17%) was recorded in 2012 at 6.46 or
equivalent to four (4) infant deaths. Withine five-year period, the
Municipalitys IMR has decreased in an average of 16.07% annually.
Finally, over the last three-year period, Bagac has only recorded an
MMR of 0.17 specifically in year 2011. No maternal death was recorded
in 2010 and 2012.

B.Leading Causes of Mortality

All Ages. Like other places in the country, the Municipality of


Bagac is also facing a double burden health problem. While it
addresses lifestyle diseases (heart diseases), the Municipality
is likewise confronting different environmental-related
diseases like pneumonia, among others. During 20102012,
the common leading causes of mortality for all ages were
Chronic
Obstructive
Pulmonary
Diseases
(COPD),
Cardiovascular Diseases (CVD), Multiple Organ Failure and
Pneumonia. COPD which topped the list in 2010 has
demonstrated a decreasing trend over the last three-years
from 20.78 in 2010 to 2.60 and 2.27 in 2011 and 2012,
respectively. Among the top ten leading causes of mortality
for all ages, only the Multiple Organ Failure shows an
increasing trend for the last three years in terms of number of
deaths. From 11 in 2010, it increased to 16 and 18 in 2011
and 2012, respectively. All other causes of mortality
demonstrated an erratic trend during the same period (Table
2.11).

Infants. Prematurity was the number one cause of death


among infant in 2010 and 2011 with a mortality rate of 9.86
and 1.77, respectively. It is good to note however, that the
incidence has decreased significantly over the last three years
(2010-2012), with no death recorded in 2012 due to
prematurity. Based on the record of the Rural Health Unit of
Bagac, in 2012, there were only four deaths recorded for the
entire Municipality and these were due to Pneumonia (2),
Septicemia (1), and Cardio Respiratory Arrest (1) (Table 2.12).

Leading Causes of Morbidity

All Ages. In general, the number of cases of most of the


leading causes of morbidity has demonstrated an erratic
trends during the three-year period (2009-2010). Except for
Acute Bronchitis which consistently remained at the number
two spot, all other causes did not maintain their ranks during
the said period.
In 2010, Upper Respiratory Tract Inspection (URTI) was the
number one cause of morbidity among all ages with 84.22
cases per 1,000 population. After a year (2012), Pneumonia
jumped in the number one spot with 62.22 cases from number
ten in 2010 with 23.83 cases per 1,000 population. In 2012,
Systemic Viral Infection (SVI) ranked number one among the
leadings causes of morbidity with 28.90 cases per 1,000
population. SVI was in the seventh place in 2010 and fourth
place in 2011.
Other common causes of illnesses in the Municipality are
Cardio Vascular Diseases (CVD), Urinary Tract Infection (UTI),

Diarrhea, Tuberculosis, Dehydration,


Wound, and Fever (Table 2.13).

D. Birth Deliveries
Tables 2.14, 2.15, and 2.16 show the number and percent
distribution of total deliveries by type, by place, and by attendance
of birth. The number of women who gave birth over the last three
(3) years (2010-2012) was on an erratic trend with an average
growth rate of 1.32 percent. Slight increase was recorded in 2012
(9.56%) due to increase of numbers of newly-wed women who got
pregnant during this period. On the average, out of the total
deliveries recorded within the same period, 90 percent were normal
while the remaining 10 percent were delivered through a caesarian
section (Table 2.14).

Surprisingly, despite governments efforts in providing mothers
access to birth homes/health facilities, the figure of those who gave
birth at home has increased by 36 percent or 192 in 2012 from 141
in 2011. Within the three-year period, it recorded an average growth
rate of 8.14 percent. Fortunately, the number of mothers who gave
birth in hospitals demonstrated a slight increase of 4.4 percent,
though the figure is still lower than that of the 2010.
In general, though the trend was erratic, during the same period,
more mothers opted to deliver in hospitals than at home.

Consequently, most of the deliveries from 2010 to 2012 were


attended by doctors although the trend was fluctuating. Significant
birth deliveries were also recorded to have attended by midwives
over the last three years. Meanwhile, from zero (0) in 2010 and
2011, the RHU of Bagac has recorded one (1) delivery being
attended by a Hilot (Table 2.16).

E. Nutrition
Another important vital health indicator that describes Bagacs health
condition is the
Malnutrition Prevalence Rate (MPR) or the proportion children aged
0-6 years old who weighed below the normal weight. Within a fouryear period (2009-2012), the Municipality has recorded an average
increase of 33.66 percent of MPR. From 1.57 percent in 2009, it
slightly increase to 2.07 percent in 2010, 2.47 percent in 2011 and
3.70 percent in 2012 (Figure 2.5).

This means that the efforts of the Municipal Government in


partnership with the Provincial Government, all the barangays in the
Municipality, and Non-Government Organizations (NGOs) on the
implementation of nutrition programs should be strengthened and
expanded to reduce the prevalence of malnutrition among children.
For few years now, the Municipality has already conducted several
activities which aimed at improving the nutritional status of children.
These include but not limited to monthly monitoring of the identified
underweight preschoolers, regular feeding, and rice allowance.

F. Other Health Services


It has been the devolved function of the Local Government Units
(LGUs) to implement both preventive and curative health programs
and services to their respective localities. Like all other LGUs in the
country, Bagac is also regularly implementing health services which
include but not limited to immunization, provision of contraceptives,
dental examination, and hospitalization assistance.

Immunization. Immunization is a way of controlling the


possible occurrence of some diseases such as measles,
poliomyelitis, diphtheria, and neonatal tetanus specifically
among children aged one (1) year old and below. Table 4.1.8
reveals that during the four-year period (2009-2012), the
Municipality has demonstrated a decreasing trend in terms of
number of children who are fully immunized with a negative
growth rate of 3.5 percent. Except in 2009, the Municipality
failed to meet its annual service target. In fact, in 2011 and
2012, its accomplishments were below the 95 percent
performance standard of the Department of Health (DOH).
Hence, the health personnel both of the Municipality and the
barangays should give extra efforts in informing mothers on
the importance of vaccination. This could be done through
information and education campaign (EIC), street dialogues,
and home visits.

Family Planning. The most commonly contraceptive
methods used by most of the Marriageable Women of
Reproductive Ages or MWRA (15-49 years old) are Injectables
(DMPA) and IUD. The number of MWRA using contraceptive
methods shows a decreasing trend during the four-year period
(2009-2012). The number of users has declined consistently
by an average of 5.61 percent per year. Like in the FIC, there
is also a need for the government to be proactive in
implementing programs to sustain Municipalitys good health
condition specifically among women in reproductive age.

Dental Health Service. Dental health services in Bagac are


rendered to different groups according to age. Preschoolers
are separated from schoolers and, at the same time,
adolescents, pregnant mothers, and other adults also have
their own respective groups. In general, over the last three (3)
years, the number of residents provided with oral examination
was on a decreasing trend. From 2,059 in 2010, it decreased
to 1,093 and then to 1,951 in 2011 and 2012, respectively.
Among the age groups identified, children with age 12 to 71
months had benefited the most in terms of dental services. It
is followed by Adolescents/Youth and Pregnant Women. Older
persons aged 60 years old and above recorded the least
number of beneficiaries.

As mandated by law, basic education is the right of every individual
especially those who belong to school going age population. For the
past four years (2009-2012), the Municipality has recorded a total of
1,798 Preschoolers. However, the increase during these periods
were so slow at a rate of 0.57 percent. Specifically, during the SY

and 14.52 percent, respectively lower than the previous SY 20092010. Nevertheless, it once again increased significantly during the
latest school year (2012-2013) with a total enrollment of 480. To
improve its performance, the Municipality should do its share in
giving parents the awareness they need regarding basic education.

managing the Municipal financial resources. The rational allocation
and utilization of resources and the prudent management of the
Municipals capital liabilities have a long term implications in the
areas of economic growth, stimulation of investment, delivery of
basic essential services, and the communitys support for
developmental projects and activities. Hence, the continuing
challenge faced by the Municipality is how to further improve
revenue collection with the impending economic crisis and threats of
competition with neighboring local government units.

the Municipality surpassed its tax collection target of 109 percent

and 86 percent, respectively. From 2010 onwards, the collection


efficiency showed a decreasing trend. The decrease were due to lack
of rules and regulations implementation and methods of revenue
collections (Table 2.50).

2.4. Physical Features


2.4.1 Natural Features
A.Topography
Elevation. Bagac is generally topographically rough. Areas near
the mountain are high elevated while those located along the
coastline are low lying. The highest point in the Municipality is
located near Mount Mariveles and Mount Samat. Particularly in
Barangay Quinawan. It has an elevation of approximately 1,400
meters above sea level. The lowest part of the Municipality with
an approximate elevation of 0 to 10 meters above the sea level is
found along its coast. The areas serve as catchment basin of the
Municipality.

Map 2.3: Elevation Map


Slope. The slope of the land is considered as an important and
limiting factor of the land and its uses. The capability of land to
support agricultural production decreases with increase in slope.
Thus, areas with steeper slopes are more likely to be for forest
management while flat lands can be utilized for farming or
planting crops and urban development.
Bagac has a slope of gently undulating to very steep area near
the Mount Samat. Areas such as Barangay Ibaba and Pag-asa
are gently sloping because of its proximity to the sea while areas

that have hilly, and steep to very abrupt slopes are located in
the barangays of Quinawan and Binuangan.

B.Geology

Regional Tectonic Setting. Tectonic movements along


geological structures that are present within the mainland
Southern Tagalog Provinces were identified as the most critical
as far as earthquake occurrences, tsunamis, and volcanic
activity in the area are concerned. These geological structures
are briefly described below.
The Manila Trench located in the West Philippine Sea is the
closest trench to the Central Luzon. It reaches a depth of about
5,400 meters, in contrast with the average depth of the South
China Sea of about 1,500 meters. It is created by plate
movement, in which the Eurasian Plate is subducting under the
Philippine Mobile Belt. The Manila Trench is associated with
frequent earthquakes, and plate movements which give rise to it.
It is also responsible for the arc of volcanoes and mountains on
the west side of the island of Luzon, including Mount Pinatubo.
There are also numerous faults that is near the Bataan. These
are the West Boundary Fault, also located in the West Philippine
Sea and East Zambales Fault along the Mount Pinatubo. Some
geologists are also examining the Bataan Province for the mere
presence of an active fault.

Local Geology. Generally, Bagac is rich in volcanic materials


such as volcanic rocks and pyroclastic materials. About threefourths of its total land area is composed of pyroclastic
materials. These are made up of volcanic derived sediments
forming layers of sand, gravel, silt, and clay. Because of its
proximity to Mount Pinatubo, there is also a significant area
that contains quaternary volcanics. Around 20.30 percent of
its total land area contains metamorphic rock deposits visible
in area approaching Subic on the north and areas near
Mariveles on the south. Sedimentary rocks from the sea are
also noticeable along the coastline. Alluvium materials covers
5.53 percent of its total land area. This is because of the
presence of the marine coral reefs. These coral reefs are being
eroded to the coast by tidal waves resulting to numerous rock
formations such as an atoll (Table 2.55 and Map 2.6).

Soil Type. Bagacs soil type is subdivided into three classes,


the Antipolo Clay,
Antipolo Loam and Pilar Silt Loam. These three soil types are
good for agricultural farming. Almost two-thirds of the
municipalitys soil type is classified as Antipolo Loam. This
type of soil is suitable for planting crops due to its
permeability and capacity to hold water. Similar to Antipolo
Loam is Antipolo Clay which is common in Central Luzon area
particularly in Bulacan. This kind of soil that comprised 17.24
percent of the total land area is good for planting rice. Pilar Silt
loam which comprised of 1.85 percent of the total land area of
the Municipality is common in barangays of Ibaba and Pagasa. This kind of soil originated from the part of the highelevated Pilar, Bataan. These soil might have been deposited
to these areas because of the presence of a major river way
(Table 2.56 and Map 2.7).

Hydrology

Rivers and Creeks. Bagac has numerous river systems that


allow water to flow from the upland going to the coastal area.
It has 12 major water systems, 9 of which are classified as
rivers and 3 are classified as creeks. There are also several
tributaries branching out to these waterways.
Bagac River is the longest river system in the Municipality with
an approximate length of 12.36 kilometers traversing 5
barangays namely; Pagasa, Tabing Ilog, Atilano Ricardo, Ibis
and Binukawan. This river system also serves as irrigation
system to the agricultural lands it bisects. The 4 barangays on
the south of Bagac particularly Saysain, Paysawan, Binuangan
and Quinawan, have their own river system (Saysain River and
Banayan River in Saysain, Paysawan River in Paysawan,
Binuangan River and Silalin Creek in Binuangan, and
Quinawan River and Anyasan Creek in Quinawan) that
supports agricultural activities in these barangays (Table 2.57

2.4.2. Natural Hazards


A. Landslide
Because of its rolling and rugged terrain, almost 95 percent of the
total land area of Bagac are prone to landslide. Numerous barangays
are susceptible to landslide. These barangays are Binuangan,
Saysain, Ibis, Banawang, Binukawan, San Antonio, Quinawan and
Paysawan. Areas along the mountainous part of these barangays are
moderately to high susceptible to landslide. Section of the roads
along the steep, mountainous part specifically along the BagacMariveles Road can suffer from the occurrence landslides. Moreover,
areas that are being transected by numerous river system in the
Municipality are prone to landslide (Table 2.62 and Map 2.14).

B. Flood
Flooding can be categorized into two types; coastal flooding and
inland flooding. Coastal flooding is known to be caused by storm
surges, high tidal waves, and tsunamis while inland flooding is
produced by heavy rains that flow down to the catchment basin of a
certain area.
Bagac is generally prone to coastal flooding than that of inland
flooding. Around seven percent of its total land area is at risk to
coastal flooding particularly those located near the sea board. This
covers the barangays of Banawang, Binuangan, Saysain, Pag-asa,
Quinawan and Paysawan. These barangays are more likely to
experience moderate to high risk of flooding. Floodwaters along the
coastline may reach from 0.50 meters and above.
In 2013, after the Typhoon Haiyan locally known as Super Typhoon
Yolanda, coastal areas are being tested for the probability of storm
surges as what caused the flooding in Visayas Regions. According to
Mines and Geosciences Bureau (MGB), coastal areas like Bagac may
experience storm surges in times of typhoon. Barangays like
Banawang, Binuangan, Pag-asa, Quinawan, Saysain and Paysawan may
experience storm surges.

C. Erosion
Erosion is characterized by acceleration of sediments from a higher
elevated area to low lying spaces. There are two types of erosions:
riverbank erosion that is due to the presence of a waterway; and soil
erosion which is common in high elevated areas with steep slopes.
Bagac is prone to both kinds of erosion. More than half of its total
land area is prone to moderate erosion. Riverbank erosion is
happening in the areas near Bagac River particularly in Barangay
Tabing-Ilog. Strong current of water leads to surface runoff washing
sediments along riverbanks. Moreover, areas near the Umagol River
in Barangay Banawang is highly susceptible to riverbank erosion.
Meanwhile, areas along the Mount Mariveles are prone to soil
erosion. These areas are known to have steep slopes. Areas that
have low vegetation such as along the Bagac-Mariveles Road also
experienced soil erosion.

D. Volcanic Hazards
Because of its proximity to Mount Pinatubo, Bataan is definitely
prone to volcanic hazards such as mudflow and ash fall. Areas of
Bataan that are low lying and near the provinces of Zambales and
Pampanga specifically Dinalupihan, Abucay and Orani are quite
exposed to lahar. These are also the areas prone to liquefaction.
Though Bagac is not prone to lava flow (lahar) due to its elevation
and liquefaction due to the rock components on its soil, it is still
likely to experience ash fall as what happened during the Mount
Pinatubo eruption in 1991.

2.4.3. Biodiversity (Flora and Fauna)

The flora of Bagac is very rich. Its forest resources cover about 82.03
square kilometers. Important international-valued timber species
found in the forests of Bagac are Apitong, Yakal, White Lauan,
Palusapis, and Tanguile. These timbers are used for making
furnitures which are export quality.
Aside from its forest resources, there are also coastal plants present
in the area such as mangroves and seagrasses.
Mangrove Forests in Bagac are particularly seen in coastal
barangays especially in Saysain. These mangroves serve as shelter
to different kind of fishes. They serve as area for aqua-culturing and
commercial fishing. Moreover, mangroves protects residents along
the coast from storm surges, large waves during typhoon and
coastal flooding. There are many species of Mangrove that can be
seen in Bagac such as palapat, bakawan lalaki and bakawan babae.
These mangroves are source of alcohol, tannin and herbal medicine.
Unfortunately, they are also used as fish traps, charcoal and housing
materials that continuously degrading the number of mangroves in
the Municipality.
Aside from mangroves, another coastal plant found in Bagac are the
seagrass and seaweed. Seagrass serves as nursing grounds for
different kind of fishes. However, seagrass in the Municipality
continuously decreases because of illegal fishing. Barangay
Banawang is one of the areas very much affected by seagrass
degradation.
Seaweeds in Bagac are being cultured in the Sitio Looc, Barangay
Banawang. Around 1.5 hectares is being used as area for the
seaweed farming. This is being maintained by the Municipal
Agriculture Office of Bagac and Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic
Resources (BFAR).
Being a coastal municipality, Bagacs fauna flourish on its marine
ecosystem. Numerous fishes and aquatic animals can be seen along
the coast of Bagac. Its wide array of sand serves as breeding area
for marine turtles. There are three breeds of marine turtles
inhabiting in Bagac. These are Olive Ridleys, Hawksbill Turtle and
Green Turtles commonly known as the pawikans. A breeding ground
managed by the Montemar Beach Resort was established in
Barangay Pag-asa. The nesting season of marine turtles usually
starts during the month of October to February. Tourists visiting the
said resort can experience to watch and free newly-hatched eggs of
the pawikans bred in the said area.

Sewerage System and Waste Management. Waste water


is one of the major environmental and sanitation problems of
the Municipality. In order to protect the Municipalitys natural
water sources and ecological environment, the local
government should need to have its Comprehensive Waste
Water Management Plan. Like most LGUs in the country, the
Municipality of Bagac has no Sewerage Treatment Plant (STP).
While most of the households in urban areas have individual
septic tank to store their waste water, significant
