 SITUATION OVERVIEW

Barangay Poblacion has a total population of 21,200. Though it is not one of

those highly environmentally restricted areas, yet it is still prone to natural hazards like
flash flood and earthquake. As per assessment of the CDRRMO, the barangay is
susceptible to these disaster and hazard risks.

Previously, Barangay Poblacion had never been a path of any storm. The flash
floods that occurred were due to intermittent rains spawned by the occurrence of inter-
Tropical Convergent Zone. But probably due to the climate phenomenon, Barangay
Poblacion may now experience typhoons.

There are thirty (30) puroks in the Barangay, but ten (10) of these are
moderately susceptible to floods. These puroks are 9B, 10, 10A, 11, 12, 12A, 18, 19,
22, and 24. These areas are situated along the banks of Taglatawan River and some
are situated along the NIA irrigation system structure which would immediately
overflow within less than one (1) day of continuous rain. Living along the banks are two
hundred seventy nine (279) families with a population of 1,053 persons vulnerable to
the floods and living along the NIA irrigation system structure are seventy (70) families
with a population of 295 persons vulnerable to floods.

Community Risk Assessment
“ CBDRM approach is people and development oriented. It views disasters as a question of people’s
vulnerability. It empowers people to address the root causes of vulnerabilities by transforming social,
economic and political structures that generate inequality and underdevelopment (Shaw and Kenji
2004). CBDRM approach covers prevention and mitigation, preparedness, emergency response and
recovery.
Need for community involvement
The key aspect of community involvement is the sustainability of community level initiatives for disaster
reduction. External agencies, like government, non-government organizations may initiate and
implement community level programs before and after disasters. However, such initiatives many times
discontinue once the external support is ended. There can be many reasons behind this lack of
sustainability, some of which may be the lack of partnership, participation, empowerment and
ownership of local communities. Unless the disaster risk management efforts are sustainable at
individual and community level, it would be difficult to reduce the vulnerability and losses. It is therefore
important to involve people in decision making on policies and strategies that should be followed for
their development in the community.
Disasters can become uncontrollable, once the event has got underway. Therefore, preventive steps
need to be taken before, during and after the disaster events. If the community were not well prepared,
control over the disaster event would be usually lost during its occurrence. If each individual in the
community is familiar with ways of coping and precautionary measures, then the disruption by a
disaster can be reduced (Sampath 2001).
All communities and villages have some vitally important assets to deal with disasters. These may
include knowledge of disaster warning signs, locally safe and vulnerable areas, experience of past
disasters, methods of survival and social relations that are often vitally important in coping with crisis.
Local communities have an active part to play before and after disasters because:
• A good state of disaster preparedness may reduce its impacts
• More number of lives can be saved during the first few hours after disaster has occurred through local
response teams, before help arrives from elsewhere.
• The numerous problems of survival and health resulting from a disaster are dealt with more efficiently,
if the community is active and well organized (WHO 1989).
Community-based Disaster Risk Management (CBDRM) is a process in which at-risk communities are
actively engaged in the identification, analysis, treatment, monitoring and evaluation of disaster risks in
order to reduce their vulnerabilities and enhance their capacities (ADPC 2003). This means that people
are at the heart of decision-making and implementation of disaster risk management activities. The
involvement of most vulnerable social groups is considered as paramount in this process, while the
support of the least vulnerable groups is necessary for successful implementation.
History of Calamities
Philippines

PSWS map and Path during the passage of Super Typhoon Bopha (Pablo) in Mindanao and Southern Visayas

Initially, the National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council (NDRRMC) advised the
citizens of Iligan and Cagayan de Oro to prepare for the impact of the storm, as they really did not
want a repeat of Severe Tropical Storm Washi, which had hit when people were asleep and,
therefore, had caused a large number of deaths. On December 2, the NDRRMC put parts of the
central and southeastern Philippines on high alert. Relief food and medicines had been pre-
positioned while thousands of people along the country's eastern border were being prepared for
evacuation to safer ground in preparation for the typhoon. [41] With Bopha expected to
strike Mindanao and Visayas, as well as areas in Southern Tagalog and Metro Manila, the possibility
of landslides was advised in Surigao, Davao, Compostela Valley, Misamis, Bukidnon, Lanao del
Norte, Lanao del Sur, Zamboanga, Leyte, Cebu, Bohol, Negros, Panay and Mindoro.[42] Government-
run radio station dzRB, in its regular Sunday press briefing, aired deputy presidential
spokesperson Abigail Valte's call on all responsible government agencies, the media, non-
government volunteer groups and volunteers to do their part in preparing for the typhoon. "Keep
updated on the bulletins from PAGASA. Always cooperate with the local authorities as the National
Government is all ready to provide all assistance to those that may be affected," Valte said. [43] Also,
disaster authorities in Bicol were alerted and getting ready with their disaster contingency plan as the
typhoon was closing in.On December 3, around 2,000 families living in Hinatuan, on the province
of Surigao del Sur, were evacuated. Since schools would be turned into evacuation centers,
Candelario Viola, the mayor of Hinatuan, ordered the suspension of all classes in the town. [44] Mar
Roxas, the Interior and Local Government Secretary, said that National Disaster Risk Reduction and
Management Council’s disaster monitoring systems were set up in several regions across the
Philippines. "In accordance with President Aquino’s marching orders to ensure zero casualties from
disasters, as much as possible, I have ordered our regional directors to make sure that the
necessary precautions are undertaken to mitigate the effects of Tropical Storm Bopha," he said. "We
have our existing protocols, and it is just a matter of implementing them and making other necessary
preparations as appropriate." Roxas added. [45] As preparations continued, Storm signal number 1
was declared over Siquijor, Bohol, Biliran, Camotes Island, Cebu Southern Leyte, Leyte, Eastern
Samar, Western Samar, Surigao del Norte, Siargao Island, Dinagat Island, Agusan del Norte,
Agusan del Sur, rest of Davao Oriental, Davaol del Norte including Samal Island, Compostela
Valley, Bukidnon, Misamis Occidental, Misamis oriental, Camiguin, Lanao del Norte and Lanao del
Sur. Also, signal number 2 was raised over Surigao del Sur and the northern part of Davao Oriental.
[46]
 The national police, coast guard (PCG) and navy had placed their personnel on standby and their
disaster-response units in preparation for Bopha's impact. "We are ready to conduct rescue
operations in flooded areas. Let us warn operators of small vessels, motor bancas, and fishing boats
to avoid sailing in the southeastern and eastern section of the country where the sea is rough," said
PCG spokesman Commander Armand Balilo.[47] After staying in the South China Sea for at least 4
days, "Pablo" again threatened the western sections of Northern Luzon, and by the afternoon of
December 8, public storm warning signal number 2 was raised over 3 provinces, and 11 provinces
were inside signal number 1.[48] Forecasters said the storm had turned and is due to hit the
Philippines on December 9.[49]

COMPILATION OF DAMAGING EARTHQUAKES OF THE PHILIPPINES

June 1999 Earthquakes in Agusan del Sur, Philippines
On June 7, 1999, a Ms 5.1 earthquake occurred at 3:45 PM (local time) and damaged the
town of Bayugan in Agusan del Sur. Using the PHIVOLCS seismic network, its epicenter was
determined to be at 8.575 N lat, 125.754 E long or about 20 km south of the town of Bayugan. Its
depth is estimated at 7 km. After two days in June 9, an aftershock occurred and damaged the town
of Talacogon also in Agusan del Sur. The epicentral areas of both events are located in the Agusan
Valley region, previously called by Maso (1911) as lying along one of the “unstable portion of the line
of fracture ...” due to the succession of damaging earthquakes that occurred in the area in the latter
part of 19th century. Agusan River meanders through the valley floor at a general NW-trend.
Mountain ranges bound the valley at its west and east sides. In the towns of Veruela and Talacogon,
many swamps and lakes are found; the largest of which is Lake Lumao located west of Talacogon.
The northern part of the valley belongs to Butuan City and the province of Agusan del Norte. Most
part of the valley, however, belongs to the province of Agusan del Sur. The two Agusan provinces
became distinct from each other from a presidential decree in 1969. Prior to this, there was only one
Agusan province.
The earthquake caused damages in the town of Bayugan in the province of Agusan del Sur.
Bayugan has a population of 89,999 (National Statistics Office, 1996) distributed over 14 barangays.
From among 9,752 dwelling units (National Census and Statistics Office, 1980), only 32 are
classified as for commercial, industrial and/or agricultural purposes. About 98% of the total units
were classified as “housing units”. Hence by 1995, the town of Bayugan may be described as small
with few commercial buildings with most of its structures built for housing purposes. PHIVOLCS
scientists who visited the town right after the earthquake noted that Bayugan has developed since
then and by the time of the earthquake, had its own commercial buildings, elementary and high
schools, a church, a funeral home and a municipal building (Roberto Tiglao, PHIVOLCS, personal
communication, 1999). Most of these structures sustained damages from the earthquake
(unpublished Quick Response Team reports, 1999). Talacogon, meanwhile, is slightly less well-
developed than Bayugan.
 - Fire incidents

Fire guttles big store in Bayugan City

Not less than 1 million pesos worth of properties and goods were turned into ash, when one of the
biggest grocery stores in Bayugan City caught by fire last December 21.

William Marketing Store was devoured by fire at around 11:45 a.m. last Saturday according to
SFO3 Eduardo Jumamoy of Bureau of Fire Protection (BFP) of Bayugan City. The fire was confined at 2:20
a.m. and declared a total fire out at around 5 in the morning.

The BFP team had a hard time to extinguish the fire because of the products that the store sell like
paints, thinners, liquors, etc.

According to the initial investigation of FO3 Ernesto Calumpag, the fire started at the 1st floor
specifically at the hardware display section of the store. But the cause of fire is under investigation yet.

Fortunately, the family members and the storekeepers living on that store were all safe and none of
them were injured. And also, that no other establishments were caught by fire because of the firewall of the
building.

According SFO3 Jumamoy, they saw empty shells of fire extinguishers and they suspected that
before the people leave the building, they tried to stop the fire using the fire extinguishers.

The incident was raised to 2nd alarm were BFP of municipalities of Esperanza, Sibagat,
Prosperidad and the Search and Rescue Agusan del Sur (SARAS) of the province immediately responded
to the area.

SFO3 Jumamoy advices the people to not leave any unplug series lights or appliances that might
result to an overload of the electricity and be careful always and call the fire department immediately when
there is a fire.

E. SUMMARY OF RISK ANALYSIS

 PREPAREDNESS PLAN (What to do Before, During, After a Disaster)

During a large-scale natural or man-made disaster, we cannot expect to depend on

emergency services or the government; all resources will be stretched to their limit. Our
neighbours and friends will also be busy trying to save their own families and property. It
may be several days or even weeks before help comes so we must plan to help
ourselves until the crisis passes.

Emergency preparedness begins at home

Brgy. Maygatasan is not well prepared to handle a major disaster but there are many
things we can do to minimize the impact. Preparedness begins at home and preparing
the Barangay means ensuring that enough families take simple steps to look after
themselves.

Remember: the best way to avoid disasters is to prepare for emergencies.

Family emergency plan

 Designate an out-of-town contact person. This should be someone who is
unlikely to be affected by the same emergency and can communicate among relatives
who may be separated. Make sure each member of your family knows this person’s
contact details.
 Have backup copies of important documents and keep them in a separate
location. These can include: passports, drivers licenses, social security numbers,
insurance details, and financial information.
 Make your home safe and minimize any potential hazards. This is especially
important for earthquakes.
 Set meeting points. During the initial emergency, relatives may be caught at work
and children may be at school. Locate at least two meeting points where family members
should go if separated; one should be close to home and another should be out of town in
case you need to evacuate your barangay.
 Learn how to shut off utilities to your home. You may need to switch off your
home’s electricity and water supply to avoid further damage after an earthquake or flood.
Unlike some other countries, we do not have gas mains supply pipes in the Philippines.
However, if you use LPG (liquid petroleum gas) tanks for cooking, be aware that these
pose a substantial fire or explosion hazard.
 Put together emergency kits for each member of the family.

Emergency kits-household disaster supplies with enough stock to last your

family until things return to normal or help reaches you or termed as ‘go-bag’ 
Household disaster supplies/ content of go-bag

 Water – 4 liters (1 gallon) per person per day to be used for drinking and
sanitation.
 Ready-to-eat, dried and canned food, vitamins.
 First aid kit and guide. Remember to have stock of medicines and equipment for
family members who have special ailments.
 A manual can opener, paper or plastic dining ware and cooking supplies.
 A portable or camping stove.
 Flashlights with spare batteries, glow-sticks, candles and matches.
 A battery operated or wind-up radio.
 A whistle and other signaling devices like a mirror or flares.
 Spare clothes and rain wear for all members of the family.
 Garbage bags and a plastic bucket for waste and sanitation.
 Personal hygiene items like toilet paper, toothpaste, soap, feminine supplies, and
alcohol.
 Plastic sheeting, duct tape and tools.
 Mosquito net and insect repellent.
 Rope and cord.
 Utility knife.
 Maps of your area.
 Paper, pencil and permanent markers.
 Books, board games and other forms of entertainment to keep you occupied.
 Extra cash.

Prepare Go-bag and get-home bag

Your go-bag and get-home bag should have a subset of the above items stored in a

back-pack or sturdy bag. Remember not to make the load too heavy as you may need to
carry these items while on foot.

The main difference between the two is that the go-bag would be stored permanently in
your home ready for a quick evacuation. Your get-home bag should be kept with you
when you’re out, such as in your vehicle trunk if you often commute. Some people prefer
to use the same bag for both purposes but keep it close to hand at all times.

NATURAL HAZARDS

 Typhoon/ Flooding
The geographical location of the Philippines has rendered it susceptible to more than twenty (20) storms
and typhoons annually. These are expected to strike during the wet season in the months of July to
September. It can be inferred that there is a probability that flooding can be an inevitable and residents
have to endure damage to property, traffic congestion, work interruption, class suspension, diseases,
epidemics and other related cases. It is well to note, however, that flooding within the barangay
generally subsides within a few hours of its occurrence.

 Earthquake
  Epidemic

A widespread occurrence of an infectious diseases in a community at a particular time.

The risk factors for outbreaks after disasters are associated primarily with population
displacement. The availability of safe water & sanitation facilities, the degree of
crowding, the underlying health status of the population, & the availability of healthcare
services.

During the past two (2) decades, natural disasters have killed millions of people,
adversely affected the lives of at least 1 billion more people, and resulted in substantial
economic damages.

Displacement
 - The risk for communicable diseases transmission after disasters is associated primarily
with the size & characteristic of the population displaced, specifically the proximity of
safe water & functioning latrines, the nutritional status of the displaced population, the
level of immunity to vaccine preventable diseases such as measles, & the access to
healthcare services.

Water- related communicable diseases

- Access to safe water can be jeopardized by a natural disaster. Diarrheal disease

outbreaks can occur after drinking water has been contaminated and have been
reported after flooding & related displacement.

Such as:

 Diarrheal diseases
 Hepatitis A & E
 Leptospirosis

Disease associated with crowding

- Crowding is a common in populations displaced by natural disasters & can facilitate the
transmission of communicable diseases.

Such as:

 Measles
 Meningitis
 Acute respiratory infections

Vectorborne Diseases

Natural disasters, particularly meteorologic events such as typhoon & flooding can affect
vector-breeding sites & vectorborne disease transmission. While initial flooding may wash
away existing mosquito breeding sites, standing water caused by heavy rainfall or overflow of
rivers can create new breeding sites.

Such as:

 Malaria outbreak
 Dengue

MAN-MADE HAZARD

 Fire
NATURAL & MAN-MADE HAZARDS

 Flood
 Drought/ El Niño

 is a climate cycle in the Pacific Ocean

with a global impact on weather
patterns. The cycle begins when warm
water in the western tropical Pacific
Ocean shifts eastward along the
equator toward the coast of South
America. Normally, this warm water
pools near Indonesia and the

Philippines.
 El Niño conditions can cause a
wide range of health problems,
including disease outbreaks,
malnutrition, heat stress, and
respiratory diseases.

The risk of communicable

diseases increases when there is
limited access to food, water, and
sanitation.

Above-average rainfall caused by

El Niño can also cause floods and
increase diseases spread by
mosquitoes, such as malaria,
dengue, chikungunya and the Zika
virus.
