RATIONALE DANA

On January 4, 2023 some municipalities in Southern Palawan (Brooke’s Point, Rizal, Sofronio
Española, Bataraza, Quezon and Balabac) experienced continuous heavy rainfall for about 12 hours in
Palawan caused by a Low-Pressure Area in the middle of the night. Early in the morning, Brooke’s Point and
Sofronio Española reported to PDRRMO – Palawan that there are flooding incidents in barangays affected
by the Low-Pressure Area.
At around 1100H, 04 January 2023, Brooke’s Point reported that there were roads and bridges
(Curanga Highway, Ipilan, Tigaplan Bridge, Barong-Barong, Mainit Spillway and Barangay Mainit) that were
already impassable due to continuous moderate to heavy rainshower. Sofronio Española reported that at
around 1447H on 04 January 2023 Pulot Center National Highway was also impassable due to continuous
moderate to heavy rainshower.
Due to these incidences that are occurring in the municipalities of Southern Palawan, PDRRMO –
Palawan activated its Emergency Operations Center (EOC) at 1000H on 04 January 2023. Two (2) Emergency
Response Teams were immediately deployed in the municipalities affected to provide assistance and
assessment in the barangays experiencing severe flooding in their area of responsibilities.
The activation of Emergency Operations Center (EOC) was purposely to provide resources,
coordinate warnings, disaster evacuation monitoring, asset inventory and emergency services integration to
the operations.
The Damage Assessment and Needs Analysis (DANA) for the province of Palawan is a document
coming from collated Municipal RDANA reports of the affected municipalities. This report serves as a
centralized log of activities involving the various sectors (Social, Lifelines, Livelihood, Health, Education and
Environment). Collected data is essential in the continuation of response operations, early rehabilitation,
recovery activities and other interventions that will be implemented by the Provincial Government, National
Government and other partner agencies/organizations.
