UPDATED CONTINGENCY PLAN FOR TYPHOON AND EARTHQUAKE

I. BACKGROUND
Adiwang Elementary School stands by the hillside 8 kilometers from the city and can be reached through jeepney or taxi. There were
no incidence of crimes and other hazards for the last three years except for shrub fire and health threat like dengue. Typhoon is the most
frequent natural hazard experienced by its stakeholders.
It has 5 buildings which are being utilized as classrooms from Kindergarten to Grade VI-pupils which are just barely enough to
accommodate our enrollees, 10 classrooms of which aren’t under current standards. There are classrooms that need repairs especially the
ceilings and gutters. The school office and its adjacent classrooms and is not safe for the pupils due to part of the ground where the building
is standing is sinking.
It has twelve (12) teachers: one (1) master teacher I, five (5) teacher III and six (6) teacher I; one (1) Head Teacher and one (1)
administrative aide working together in carrying out DepEd’s mandate. There are two hundred seventy-eight (283) pupils who are presently
enrolled.

SEISMIC HAZARDS ASSESSMENT


HAZARD ASSESSMENT EXPLANATION AND RECOMMENDATION

Ground Rupture Safe; Active faults are those that have moved within the last 10,000 years. It shows
Approximately 8.9 evidence or has documented history of its recent movement. Ground rupture is a
km from the displacement along an active fault trace that reaches the surface.
Tubao Fault

Ground Shaking Prone; All sites may be affected by ground shaking in the event of an earthquake and can
Intensity VIII be mitigated by following the provisions of the National Building code and the
Structural code of the Philippines.
Liquefaction Safe Liquefaction is a phenomenon wherein the ground, especially near the river, lake
and coasts, behaves like liquid similar to quicksand due to very strong shaking.

Earthquake- Prone; Low Earthquake-induced landslides are the downward slope movement of rocks, solid
Induced Landslide Susceptibility and other debris commonly triggered by strong shaking.

Avoidance is recommended for sites with earthquake-induced landslide hazard


unless appropriate engineering interventions are in place.

Tsunami Safe A tsunami is a series of sea waves commonly generated by under-the-sea


earthquakes and whose heights could be greater than 5 meters.

Note:
All hazard assessments are based on the available susceptibility maps and the coordinates of the user’s selected location.

This report was generated through GeoRisk Philippines’ HazardHunterPH app. This report is not for sale.
To obtain an official document for legal purposes, or for the assessment of critical facilities and areas within ground rupture buffer zones, request for an Official Hazard

VOLCANIC HAZARDS ASSESSMENT


HAZARD ASSESSMENT EXPLANATION AND RECOMMENDATION

Nearest Active Pinatubo Active volcanoes are those that erupted within historical times (within the last 600 years).
Volcano (139.2 km) Accounts of these eruptions were documented by man within the last 10,000 years based on
the analyses of material from young volcanic deposits.

Lahar Safe Lahars (an Indonesian term), sometimes called volcanic mudflows or debris flows, are
slurries of volcanic sediment, debris and water that cascade down a volcano’s slopes
through rivers and channels. Lahars in tropical areas are mainly generated by torrential
rainfall on unconsolidated deposits from a past eruption.

Lahar Hazard assessments are long-term lahar hazard projections based on the volcano’s
morphology, eruption history, as well as its tendency for rapid morphologic changes during
periods of intense and/or prolonged rainfall, or after a major lahar event.

Note:
All hazard assessments are based on the available susceptibility maps and the coordinates of the user’s selected location.
This report was generated through GeoRisk Philippines’ HazardHunterPH app. This report is not for sale.
To obtain an official document for legal purposes, or for the assessment of critical facilities and areas within ground rupture buffer zones, request for an Official Hazard

HYDRO-METEOROLOGICAL HAZARDS ASSESSMENT


HAZARD ASSESSMENT EXPLANATION AND RECOMMENDATION

Rain-Induced High Susceptibility; Areas with high susceptibility to rain-induced landslides usually have steep to
Landslide Numerous very steep slopes that are underlain by weak materials, with the presence of
old/inactive numerous old/inactive landslides. These sites may be considered not suitable
landslides present for permanent habitation but may be developed for alternative uses subject to
the implementation of appropriate mitigation measures after performing site
specific geotechnical studies.

Implementation of appropriate mitigation measures as deemed necessary by


project engineers and LGU building officials is recommended for landslide
susceptible areas. This includes performing site-specific studies to address
potential foundation/slope stability problems.

Monitoring of signs/evidences of ground movement such as tension cracks,


tilted trees and fences, and bulging road sections in areas that are moderately to
critically susceptible to landslides should be done regularly and reported to local
authorities and/or the MGB.

Note:
All hazard assessments are based on the available susceptibility maps and the coordinates of the user’s selected location.
The possibility of both rain-induced landslide and flooding occurring is not disregarded. Because of the composite nature of
MGB’s 1:10,000-scale Rain-induced Landslide and Flood Susceptibility Maps, it spatially prioritizes the more frequently occurring
and most damaging hazards in an area. Continuous updating is being done.
This report was generated through GeoRisk Philippines’ HazardHunterPH app. This report is not for sale.
To obtain an official document for legal purposes, or for the assessment of sites for development, request for an Official Geohazard Certification or Site Investigation on Rain
induced Landslide and Flood hazards from the Mines and Geosciences Bureau (MGB) by sending an email to central@mgb.gov.ph.

HYDRO-METEOROLOGICAL HAZARDS ASSESSMENT


HAZARD ASSESSMENT EXPLANATION AND RECOMMENDATION

Storm Surge Safe A storm surge (“daluyong ng bagyo”) is the abnormal rise in sea level that occurs
during tropical cyclones or “bagyo”. It happens when a very strong tropical cyclone
blows-off excessive amounts of seawater toward low-lying coastal communities.

It is catastrophic and life-threatening because a storm surge can cause massive


inland flooding, sometimes in unimaginable heights. It is even more dangerous
when the storm surge coincides with a high tide.

For storm surge-prone communities, the most important considerations are 1) the
strength of the tropical cyclone, 2) the height of the surge, and 3) if the community is
located in a low-lying areas.

return period)
The Regional Severe Wind Hazard is expressed in terms of Return Periods (RPs) of
Tropical Cyclone winds. Return period means the repeat interval, or the estimate of
likelihood and severity of severe wind event. Return periods are then translated into
Annual Exceedance Probabilities (AEPs) which are the chance that a given severe
wind hazard level will be equalled or exceeded in any year.

At higher return periods, the wind speeds are stronger but are less frequent. At

lower return periods, the wind speeds are less intense but are more frequent.

The Regional severe wind hazard maps are used to update the wind zoning map of
the Philippines and as reference in designing building structures.

For those areas identified as high risk to wind damage, building codes/regulations
must be strictly implemented to mitigate severe wind risks. For already developed
areas, retrofitting is encouraged – the methods applied in this study can be used to
set out a cost-benefit study for retrofitting older, more vulnerable building types to
increase their resilience to severe winds.

Intensity VIII be mitigated by following the provisions of the National Building code and the
Structural code of the Philippines.

Liquefaction Safe Liquefaction is a phenomenon wherein the ground, especially near the river, lake
and coasts, behaves like liquid similar to quicksand due to very strong shaking.

Earthquake- Prone; Low Earthquake-induced landslides are the downward slope movement of rocks, solid
Induced Landslide Susceptibility and other debris commonly triggered by strong shaking.

Avoidance is recommended for sites with earthquake-induced landslide hazard


unless appropriate engineering interventions are in place.

VOLCANIC HAZARDS ASSESSMENT


HAZARD ASSESSMENT EXPLANATION AND RECOMMENDATION

Nearest Active Pinatubo Active volcanoes are those that erupted within historical times (within the last 600 years).
Volcano (139.2 km) Accounts of these eruptions were documented by man within the last 10,000 years based on
the analyses of material from young volcanic deposits.

Lahar Safe Lahars (an Indonesian term), sometimes called volcanic mudflows or debris flows, are
slurries of volcanic sediment, debris and water that cascade down a volcano’s slopes
through rivers and channels. Lahars in tropical areas are mainly generated by torrential
rainfall on unconsolidated deposits from a past eruption.

Lahar Hazard assessments are long-term lahar hazard projections based on the volcano’s
morphology, eruption history, as well as its tendency for rapid morphologic changes during
periods of intense and/or prolonged rainfall, or after a major lahar event.

HYDRO-METEOROLOGICAL HAZARDS ASSESSMENT


HAZARD ASSESSMENT EXPLANATION AND RECOMMENDATION

Rain-Induced High Susceptibility; Areas with high susceptibility to rain-induced landslides usually have steep to
Landslide Numerous very steep slopes that are underlain by weak materials, with the presence of
old/inactive numerous old/inactive landslides. These sites may be considered not suitable
landslides present for permanent habitation but may be developed for alternative uses subject to
the implementation of appropriate mitigation measures after performing site
specific geotechnical studies.

Implementation of appropriate mitigation measures as deemed necessary by


project engineers and LGU building officials is recommended for landslide
susceptible areas. This includes performing site-specific studies to address
potential foundation/slope stability problems.

Monitoring of signs/evidences of ground movement such as tension cracks,


tilted trees and fences, and bulging road sections in areas that are moderately to
critically susceptible to landslides should be done regularly and reported to local
authorities and/or the MGB.

Note:
All hazard assessments are based on the available susceptibility maps and the coordinates of the user’s selected location.
The possibility of both rain-induced landslide and flooding occurring is not disregarded. Because of the composite nature of
MGB’s 1:10,000-scale Rain-induced Landslide and Flood Susceptibility Maps, it spatially prioritizes the more frequently occurring
and most damaging hazards in an area. Continuous updating is being done.
