EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Philippines geographical location make it susceptible to various natural hazards. Plank on the
eastern side by the vast pacific ocean which is a typhoon generator, it experience an average of twenty
(20) typhoons each year, some of which landfall and cause major destruction to life and properties,
out of this number around two to three typhoons have now been observed to pass by between the
Visayas and Mindanao areas during the northeast monsoon typhoon season. Being also situated along
the “Pacific Ring of Fire” the country is also vulnerable to frequent earthquakes and volcanic eruptions.
Furthermore, the country’s geographical location and physical environment contributes to its high
susceptibility to tsunamis, sea level rise, storm surges, landslides, flood/flashfloods and drought.
Sustained heavy rainfall may cause water bodies to swell/overflows thereby endangering lives and
properties along creeks and river banks, especially those in downstream areas. This is exemplified by
the November 1991 devastation called “Ormoc Tragedy” when heavy rainfall brought by Typhoon
Uring creates artificial damming that eventually breakdown and the flood water rushed to the City
proper which killed almost 5,000 people, more than 3,000 declared missing and injured more
residents. Report from that incident shows that more or less 14,000 houses were destroyed and
property damage balloon to 600 million pesos. In the infrastructure, 12 bridges were partially damaged
and total estimated damage of around 3 million pesos.
On the other hand, Ormoc City is also not exempt from human induced disasters like fire. On the
afternoon of Christmas day in 2008, Unitop Department Store, located downtown, which sells toys,
garments, Christmas decor and firecrackers, caught fire resulting in 24 deaths and 21 injured and
accounted 3.5 million pesos damage to property was recorded.
In July 2, 2015, a two-decked vessel carrying 173 passengers capsized about 200 meters from Ormoc
Port, just 20 minutes after it left the port bound for Pilar town in Camotes Island, Cebu. According to
the report of PCG, the vessel was lashed by strong waves and caused 63 casualties; the incident was
reportedly caused by “wrong maneuvering” of the boat captain.
A month after the incident of the capsized passenger vessels, another passenger vessel of Roble
Shipping Lines, MV Wonderful Stars caught fire upon landing in the port of Ormoc City causing the
injury of 2 crew members of the ship. The vessel carried 544 passengers from Cebu and manned by 60
crew members. All other passengers and crew were however safely evacuated.
On July 6, 2017, a 6.5 Magnitude Earthquake rocks the city and its neighbouring municipalities causing
major damages to houses and infrastructures. It was caused by the movement of Philippine Fault Line
which traverse Leyte Island. Two casualties were recorded and about 2,272 houses damaged.
Every year, human and natural induced disasters have resulted to various losses in lives and properties,
disruption of social and economic activities, agriculture and livestock, as well as damage to the
environment. New findings points to Climate Change and Global Warming as a big factor in bringing
about this increasing frequency and destructiveness of calamities, makes worst by the vulnerability of
the majority of the population.

Hence, the need to integrate disaster risk reduction (DRR) and climate change adaptation (CCA) lens
into all development planning and programs to address this concerns and in the end promote a disaster
resilient city of Ormoc towards sustainable development.
Along this light, the Local Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Plan attempts to set a clear and
coherent approach in the management of events and calamities. The plan proposes programs and
projects to minimize and mitigate damage from hazards, protect lives and properties, enhance
capability and enable us to promote the mantra of “build back better and safer communities.

The Comprehensive Local

Disaster Risk Reduction and
Management Plan of Ormoc
City

INTRODUCTION
Ormoc City is a port city and is the
largest city in Leyte by land area and the
second largest in Eastern Visayas after
Calbayog City in Samar. At the head of
Ormoc Bay, the city's terrain is mostly of
gently rolling plains. It is bounded on the
northwest by the towns of Matag-ob and
Merida, in the north by Kananga, in the
northeast by the towns of Jaro, Pastrana
and Dagami, and in the south by the
town of Albuera (Figure 1).
The city of Ormoc is a first class

and independent component city from
the Province of Leyte. It is the first non-
Fig. 1: Location Map of Ormoc City
provincial chartered city in the
Philippines by virtue of Republic Act 179 of 1947
and by virtue of Presidential Proclamation No. 42. Its name is derived from “ogmok” an old Visayan
term which means a depressed bowl. Ormoc celebrates its Charter Day every 20th day of October.
According to the 2015 Census of Population, the city has a population of 215,031 people, the
most populous LGU in Region 8, except Tacloban. Ormoc is the economic, cultural, commercial and
transportation hub of western Leyte. The city also serves as a major jump-off point and port of entry
for neighboring islands in central Visayas and some parts of northern Mindanao
As an independent component city, it is not subject to the administrative regulation from the
Provincial Government of Leyte and it cannot vote for Provincial Officials. However, the city is part
of the Fourth Congressional District of Leyte together with the Municipalities of Albuera, Kananga,
Merida, Palompon and Isabel.
Demographics
The natives of this city are called Ormocanons, with most being Cebuano speakers (or Kana, as
Cebuano-speakers in Leyte and Southern Leyte are often called by the Waray people of the eastern
part of Region 8) together with the whole western and southern parts of Leyte island.
Like most Filipinos, Ormocanons are predominantly Roman Catholic, and the city celebrate its
annual fiesta in honour of the patron saints, Saint Peter and Saint Paul on June 28 and 29. Other main
Catholic holy days, including the local fiestas of barangays, are observed throughout the year. There
is also a visible Muslim minority within the city and all over the island, evidenced by the mosque in
the cityscape, with most of them are Maranaos from Mindanao.

Legal Basis of the City DRRM Plan
On May 27, 2010, former President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo signed into law the Disaster Risk
Reduction and Management Act of 2010 or Republic Act 10121, to amend the three-decade
Presidential Decree 1566, the old Disaster Management Law of the Philippines. This PDRRM Act of
2010, institutionalizes the Disaster Risk Reduction and Management system not only in the National
Government level but also down to all local government units in the country. It emphasizes the major
paradigm shift of disaster management from the reactive to the pro-active approach. One of the
important features of this new law is the allocation and comprehensive utilization of the 5% Calamity
Fund which is now the Local Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Fund (LDRRMF). Now under
Section 21 of RA 10121, 70% of the LDRRM Fund can be used for pre-disaster activities thereby giving
LGU’s a more hands-on approach in disaster risk reduction thru prevention, preparedness and
mitigation measures. (NDRRMC-DBM-DILG Joint Memorandum Circular No. 2013-1, dated March 25,
2013)
Republic Act 10121 also institutionalizes disaster risk management by requiring LGUs to
establish a Local Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Office (LDRRMO) in every Province, City
and Municipality, to lead in the implementation of the mandate and full essence of the law. In order
for the LGU’s to be efficient and effective in the utilization of the LDRRM Fund, the law now also
requires them to formulate a comprehensive DRRM Plan which it shall implement together with local
partners and stakeholders as basis for the disbursement of the fund (Par. 1 of Sec. 21 of RA 10121).
Hence, this City DRRM Plan.
Planning Process
The primary goal of this LDRRM Plan is to improve the existing practices of Ormoc City on Disaster Risk
Reduction and Management through better partnership and working relationships among the
departments within the local government unit, civil society organizations, private sector and
accredited community disaster volunteers (ACDV’s).
The plan encourages pragmatic contingency measures characterized by community self-reliance

through partnership among public officials, their constituents, and the private sector. The plan is
functional and action-oriented. The effectiveness of the city’s disaster preparedness largely depends
on the skills of the locales, local resources and the nature and extent of involvement of the private
sector and the general public. Assistance from the provincial, regional and national level authorities
may be sought when the need arises.

Gender-responsive City
The integration of gender and explicit consideration of development (social, economic, physical,
cultural and political forces), determines how differently men and women participate and benefit from
and control resources and activities. The combined gender-responsive and participatory approach in
the entire planning and decision-making process from plan formulation/updating, plan
implementation and monitoring and evaluation is a manifestation of good governance that will bring
us closer to our goal of having men and women equally contributing to and benefiting from
development. The utilization of gender-responsive planning approach ensures or provides a
mechanism for integrating sustainable indicators in planning.
In the formulation of this Annual City DRRM Plan of Ormoc City, there were three specific objectives
that were agreed upon by the participants in order to attain quality results and better guidelines in the
formulation of the plan. And these are as follows:
1. To review the results of the Participatory Disaster Risk Assessment (PDRA) conducted by
different humanitarian organization and INGOs assisting Ormoc City after devastation of Super
Typhoon Yolanda and to update ad harmonize the results in identifying programs for Disaster
Risk Reduction and Management.
2. To integrate the programs and projects of every offices of the City related to DRRM, gathered
through consultations, action planning and workshop
3. To formulate the comprehensive DRRM Plan of Ormoc City.
Formulation
This Annual Comprehensive City DRRM Plan was extracted from the 5 Year Local Disaster Risk
Reduction and Management Plan ( Year 2016-2020) drafted through the assistance of various NGO’s,
CSOs and members of the City DRRM Council through a 3-day Workshop. On the first day, the
discussion on the salient provisions of RA 10121 and the basic concept of DRR was provided, followed
by the presentation of the results of the Participatory Disaster Risk Assessment (PDRA). Then a
consolidation of the Citywide Risk Assessment and finalization of the LDRRMO and LDRRMC structures,
with a final review of the financial capability of the City to fund the 5-Year DRRM plan. The second and
third day of the LDRRM Planning and Budgeting Workshop was a continuation of the planning process
and final financial projection for the annual and also to the 5-year budgetary requirement to ensure
the feasibility and efficiency of the plan and implementation by the city. This LDRRM Plan for 2019
was basically taken with minor enhancements and revisions from the output of the 5 Year City LDRRM
Plan.

Prior to the conduct of

-day
twoLDRRM Planning and Budgeting Workshop,
a series of meeting
Scope and Duration
The 2019 Annual City DRRM Plan focuses on the 3 core programs namely:
1. Disaster Prevention Program - Focuses on physical infrastructure support program to rehabilitate

and enhance the functionality of the City District Centers (3-in-1) building, particularly those
located in Linao, Curva, Ipil and Valencia that was damaged by typhoon Yolanda. Retrofitting of
the Ormoc City hall, water system rehabilitation, enhancement of identified evacuation centers
and disaster operation centers.
2. Disaster Mitigation and Climate Change Adaptation Program– Gives importance the agriculture
resiliency, health emergency management, environmental protection and solid waste
management support program of Ormoc City.
3. Disaster Preparedness and Response Program – Focuses on two aspects. First, upgrading the
internal system and general operation management and second, the organizational development
of LDRRMC and LDRRMO. Internal system and general operation management, take into
consideration the setting up, maintain and operate a localized early warning system and the
procurement of the state of the equipment for disaster preparedness and response. While the
organizational development of LDRRMC and LDRRMO was for focused on building technical
capability of the women and men of the LDRRM office of Ormoc City to prepare themselves the
bigger responsibilities during disasters.
The members of the LDRRMC shall be strengthened organizationally and technically to ensure their
effectiveness in overseeing the LDRMM Plan of the City and provide direction to the LDRRM Office and
its staff.
The City Local Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Office (CDRRMO) is already manned by regular
personnel as mandated by RA 10121 but is still lacking in key personnel. In the meantime, to help
manned its 24/7 Disaster Emergency Response Operations, the Office managed to utilize volunteers

coming from different departments to carry out the tasks of day to-day operations and implementation
of its Comprehensive Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Plan.
However, the Office is organizing and training Accredited Community Disaster Volunteers
(ACDV’s), as what the PDRRM Law prescribed. They help augment the city emergency responders
specially during rescue operations. The barangay trained responders are called the Barangay Auxiliary
Response Team (BART) and they are directly supervised by the Barangay Disaster Risk Reduction and
Management Committee (BDRRMC) with the technical assistance and close supervision of the
CDRRMO.

Profile

Brief Description of Ormoc City
Ormoc City is located in the Province of Leyte, in the Eastern Visayas region (Region VIII). Situated 109
km from Tacloban city, the capital of the Province and the Region, and about 62 nautical miles from
Cebu City, the business hub of the Visayas. Ormoc is a popular convergence point for businessmen,
traders, and industrialists. It has a Type IV Weather pattern (no pronounced rainy or dry season) but
experiences more precipitation during the southwest monsoon season. Its fertile farmlands, traverse
by streams and rivers makes the area predominantly an agriculture based economy. Ormoc Bay which
plank the city on its south-west side is also a major source of sea products.
High mountain ranges separate Ormoc from the eastern “waray-waray” portion of Leyte island. Its
undulating hills and plains is traverse by numerous rivers and streams before it drains into the Ormoc
Bay. Among them are the Bao River in the north, Pagsangaan River in the northwest side, the Bagong-
bong, Panalian and the Panilahan River in the south and the Anilao and Malbasag Rivers which border
the eastern and western flanks of Ormoc City Proper.
The city is subdivided into 110 barangays ( including the 29 District Barangays of the city proper) of
which 41 are classified as urban barangays while the 69 are classified as rural barangays. Sixteen
barangays in total are also coastal barangays.
In order to make basic services more effective and closer to the people, the whole City was clustered
into six (6) Districts areas: Curva, Valencia, San Pablo, Ipil, Doña Feliza Mejia and Linao.
Key infrastructures in the City are: the Ormoc Airport, the Port terminal, the Leyte Geothermal
Production Field (LGPF) and Geothermal Power Plant in Barangay Tongonan and the Solar Power Plant
(in Barangay Dolores). the main Hospitals (located in Barangay Cogon, Carlota Hills in Can-adieng,
District 14 and in Districts 21)
Economy
Ormoc City's economic base is a good mix of agriculture, aquaculture, industry, tourism, and
commercial services. Sugar cane, rice and pineapple are the bulk produce of the agricultural sector.
The city enjoys economic growth because it supplies a large part of the country's power needs with its
abundant geothermal power resources from the Tongonan Geothermal Power Plant in Barangay
Tongonan and neighboring Kananga town. Ormoc is also the gateway to the Leyte Industrial
Development Estate in the nearby town of Isabel, home of the Philippine Phosphate Fertilizer Plant,
the largest fertilizer factory in Asia, and the Philippine Associated Smelter and Refining Company, the
country's biggest copper processing plant, among other industries.
Ormoc Natural Disasters

The city’s recent history is replete with triumph and tragedies that showcased the resiliency of the
Ormokanon’s (as the natives of the place are called) to rise from dire predicaments.

On the morning of November 5, 1991, the

City of Ormoc was inundated by a flashflood
due to days of heavy rainfall brought about by
Tropical Storm Uring. The city government
recorded 4,922 deaths, 3,000 missing persons,
14,000 destroyed houses and more than P600
million worth of damaged to properties. None
of the 3,000 missing persons were ever found
and are now presumed dead. Illegal logging and
kaingin (slash-and-burn farming) were blamed
as the reasons of the flood. Heavy rainfall
caused water to collect upstream the Anilao and
Malbasag rivers until it poured to the lowlands
in Ormoc, particularly District 26, also known as
Isla Verde.
On 5 November 2011, a monument by

national artist Francis Cinco commemorating
the 20th anniversary of the event was inaugurated. It sits on top of the mass grave at the Ormoc City
Public Cemetery where an estimated 4,900 victims are buried. The sculpture, entitled "Gift of Life", is
an abstract depicting a life taken to heaven (Figure 2).
Also on November 8, 2013, the city again suffered massive infra devastation caused by Super
Typhoon Yolanda (Intl. Codename: Haiyan). About 90% of the city’s infrastructures were affected but
it only incurred minor casualties due partly to massive pre-emptive evacuation and early warning the
city have initiated before the typhoon impact.
Type of Hazard that occurred and mostly likely to occur
While the flood was the major event impacting Ormoc City as a result of Tropical Storm Uring (1991),
the impact from the high winds was the major cause of destructions during the Yolanda event in 2013.
With an average of 20 typhoons impacting the Philippines every year, the associated risks – high winds,
flood, storm surge, and landslides (as a result of heavy rains) – are all serious threat to the city of Ormoc.
Monsoon Winds/ Typhoons

There are two types’ of monsoon winds in the Philippines, the southwest monsoon (May-October) or
known as the "Habagat", and the dry winds of the northeast monsoon (November -April) called the
"Amihan". The Habagat season is characterized by cold and hot humid weather, frequent heavy rainfall
and typhoons with a prevailing wind from the west. The Amihan season is characterized by hot
temperatures, little or no rainfall, and a prevailing wind from the east.

In the case of Ormoc City, Amihan or the northeast monsoon has turned out to be the scariest and
most devastating monsoon winds based on the last three years experienced by the city. Track of Super
Typhoon Yolanda on November 08, 2013 is influenced by amihan and bring more or less 2 billion pesos
of damage to infrastructure, agriculture and economy of the city. There were 38 persons declared as
casualties and more or less 5,000 injured were recorded in the aftermath of the typhoon.
However, Ormoc being a coastal city is also affected by the Habagat season. Subsistence fishing which
is still a primary livelihood for a significant number of residents in coastal barangays usually ceased
during heavy waves and strong wind conditions. In June 2, 2015, a tragic sea mishap happened when
a motor boat carrying about 250 passengers bound for Camotes island, capsized just about 500 meters
from the Ormoc Port when it was battered by strong waves and caused the death of 63 persons and
with 3 persons declared missing.
.
Hazard, Exposure, and Vulnerability (HEV) Profile of Ormoc City

Exposure to natural hazards and the underlying physical and social vulnerabilities, threaten the
capacity of the people to cope with the disasters that may occur. Therefore knowing those hazard, and
vulnerability make them prepare to the worst case scenario.
After the Super Typhoon Yolanda in November 2013, the LDRRMO and the CPDO initiated an activity
to update their hazard map to as start-up activity in getting more prepared for the next disasters to
come. They six hazards mentioned above (flood, ground rupture, ground shaking, tsunami, rain-
induced landslide and liquefaction) was reviewed to provide latest perspective in the formulation of
their comprehensive LDRRM Plan. Presented below are the visual representations of hazard that
Ormoc City is facing and needs for critical preparation to avoid impact of disasters.
During the LDRRM Planning and budgeting workshop of Ormoc City in Cebu, the LDRRMC identified
flood, ground rapture, ground shaking, tsunami rain induced landslide and liquefaction as potential
hazard that the 110 barangays of Ormoc City are exposed.
Below are the detailed information on the natural hazard that Ormoc City are exposed to and the
project number of population, households and other assets threatened and most likely in vulnerable
situations.

FLOOD
Out of 110 Barangays, 42 of which are vulnerable to flooding, these barangays covers a total of 14,327.49 hectares agricultural land that
constitutes the 93% for the total land area of mentioned 42 barangays. With these total agricultural areas, 56% are affected by flooding that resulted
to crop damaged during wet seasons.
During flooding season 32% of the populations are affected in these 42 barangays and these cover a total of 37,227 individuals from 16,425
population data generated by CDRRMO of Ormoc City.

HAZARD MAP
After the Super Typhoon Yolanda in November 2013, the LDRRMO and the CPDO initiated an activity
to update their hazard map to as start-up activity in getting more prepared for the next disasters to
come. They six hazards mentioned above (flood, ground rapture, ground shaking, tsunami, rain
induced landslide and liquefaction) was reviewed to provide latest perspective in the formulation of
their comprehensive LDRRM Plan. Below are the visual representations of hazard that Ormoc City is
facing and needs for critical preparation to avoid impact of disasters.
Flood
The areas in the map that was colored in red are consider as flood prone areas subjected to recurring
inundation when the level of a body of water rises and overflow its natural or artificial confines due to
heavy or continues rainfall. The areas that are not colored are considered as areas where elevation is
greater than 20 meters and not affected by flooding.
Flood of short duration with relatively high peak discharge over a relatively small area is known as
flashflood. Potential flashflood exit points are areas where flash flooding is expected to occur
Fig 4: Flood Hazard Map of Ormoc City

Ground Rupture
As explained in the HEV profile above, Ormoc City has four barangays vulnerable to ground rapture
and these are; barangay Cabaon-an, Liberty, Nueva Vista and Tongonan. The bold and dotted red line
found in the map below are the result of the study of PhilVOCs on the specific location of active fault
line in Ormoc City.
Fig 5: Ground Rapture Hazard Map of Ormoc City

Ground Rupture
For Ground shaking, Ormoc City is in red color with emphasize on the some areas where red color is
very bold and these are located near the fault lines and in areas where near river banks where soil is
relative soft and the shaking will be felt more significant to other areas.
Fig 6: Ground Shaking Hazard Map of Ormoc City
Tsunami
This tsunami map was generated using available tsunami programs, earthquake and tectonic data and
infographic and bathymetric maps.
The Limitation of this map:

 The content of tsunami inundation is based on current physical conditions of the study area.
 Earthquake – induced submarine landslide that could also generate tsunami are not considered
by this map.
 Significant erosion or deposition along the shore in the future could affect the level of tsunami
hazard and may need hazard assessment.

Fig 7: Tsunami Hazard Map of Ormoc City
Rain-induced Landslide
 Areas with low to gentle slopes and lacking cracks have low landslide susceptibility rating;
 Areas with moderate landslide susceptibility rating have inactive old landslide and tension cracks
which are located away from community. These area usually have moderate slopes;
 Areas with high landslide susceptibility rating have active recent landslide and tension cracks that
would directly affect the community. Those with steep slopes and drainage that are prone to
landslide damming are high susceptibility to landslide;
 The possible landslide debris accumulation zones are the area where landslide debris could
accumulate

Fig 8: Rain Induce Landslide Hazard Map of Ormoc City
Liquefaction
• The map was based on the geology, presence of active faults, historical accounts of liquefaction,
geomorphology of the areas, and preliminary micro tremor survey data utilize to validate type of
underlying materials;
• The map is semi-detailed and may be used for land used, emergency response and mitigation
planning, and should not be used for site specific evaluation;
• The liquefaction hazard maps do not restrict construction of any structure and development in
areas susceptible for liquefaction as long as proper engineering consideration are applied

Participatory Disaster Risk Assessment Results

Below are the results of the PDRA workshop during the conduct of the comprehensive disaster risk
reduction and management planning and budgeting workshop on April 8-10, 2015. The specific results
of the PDRA workshop were also validated by the LDRRMC on a special workshop that they have
conducted during the regular LDRRMC meeting for the month of May 2015. The data and information
below are based on the experience and memory recall of the participant on the gravity of hazards that
the community had experienced for the past 10-20 years. This is also their way of describing the risks
and vulnerability of the city when and if a disaster strikes.
TIMELINE:
This tool has been used in Community Risk Assessments to recall the severity of impact of every
disaster that happened in an area for the past 1020 years. This is a very important process for the
LDRRM Council to undergo in order to establish worst case scenarios, based on their actual experiences
in the past, so that they can see clearly its possible consequences and the important things they need
to do. Below are the results of the timeline for Ormoc City.

Projection

Major Programs of Ormoc City on DRRM and CCA

The 5-year Comprehensive Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Plan of Ormoc City consist of
three major programs namely: 1) Disaster Prevention Program; 2) Disaster Mitigation and Climate
Change Adaptation Program; and 3) Disaster Preparedness and Response Program. These three
major programs describe the 5-year priority programs and projects of the city for Disaster Risk
Reduction and Management (DRRM) and Climate Change Adaptation that will be funded by 70% of the
5% Local Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Fund (LDRRMF).
Pertinent Laws on Local DRRM Fund Utilization
The Republic Act 7160 otherwise known as the Local Government Code of 1991 was passed in to law
5 years after the People Power Revolution. RA 7160 sought to upgrade local government unit by
delegating some limited powers to local government units and by encouraging people to participate
in community affairs. With this enabling law local government unit allotted the share of their internal
revenue allotment that they can use for the development of their respective area of responsibility. The
allotment is largely based upon the type of Government they are and a formula based upon their land
area and population. Section 284 of Local Government Code of the Philippines set up the formula for
the distribution of the allotment.
On May 27, 2010 Philippine Disaster Risk Reduction and Management law has been passed and
amended the 30 years old and conservative Disaster Management Law (PD 1566). In the PDRRM Act
of 2010, each local government unit has been allotted 5% of it IRA that can be used in the disaster risk
reduction and management. 70% of the said 5% local disaster risk reduction and management fund
shall be allocated to “support disaster risk management activities such as but not limited to, pre
disaster preparedness programs including training, purchasing of life saving early warning and rescue

ORMOC CITY PRIORITIZED LOCALIZED EARLY WARNING SYSTEM IN THE FORMULATION OF THEIR
COMPREHENISIVE LOCAL DRRM PLAN:
With this mandate of the Local Government Code of 1991 and specific funding provision of Philippine
Disaster Risk Reduction and Management (PDRRM) Act 2010, Ormoc City in Leyte formulated their 5-
year comprehensive Local Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Plan (20162020) incorporating
the sustainability mechanism of their 7 years old Local Flood Early Warning System (LFEWS) installed
by GIZ.

Based on the financial projection for the 5-year comprehensive DRM and CCA Plan of Ormoc City, they
have a total budget amounting to Three Hundred Eleven Million, Three Hundred Sixty Thousand, and
One Hundred Pesos (Php 311,360,100.00). This amount is the total 5% Local Disaster Risk Reduction
and Management (LDRRM) Fund for the period of 5 years to implement the disaster risk management
program of the city. The City’s Comprehensive DRM and CCA Plan are composed of different programs
and services, for the utilization of 70% of five percent LDRRM fund, the following program was
considered by the LGU:
1. Disaster Preventions Program – this program was more focused on building disaster resilient
physical infrastructure in the city, covering repair of 42 health centers in Ormoc City,
retrofitting of City Hall, water system rehabilitation, repair of 3 birthing centers within the 3in1
building in Barangay Linao, Valencia and Dolores. Enhancement of evacuation centers and
operation center was also priority in the next five years of implementation of the plan.
2. Disaster Mitigation and Climate Change Adaptation Program – In response to the changing
climate and the new normal set by the occurrence of natural hazards, the CDRRM Council of
Ormoc City, the LGU consider t provide support in their Agriculture resiliency project, health
and emergency management support project and the Solid Waste management enhancement
program.
3. Disaster Preparedness Program – This program is divided into two major platforms, the
Internal System and General Operation Management and Organizational Development of
DRRM Council member, staff and volunteers. For the internal system and general operation
management, the acquisition of disaster response and rescue equipment was considered
together with installation, maintenance and operation of localized early warning system of the
City. The LDRRMC Funds allocates funding to focus not only at the community-based but down
to the family-based disaster preparedness programs.
The remaining 30% of the five percent LDRRM Fund was considered as quick response fund of the LGU
and can be utilized only when a state of calamity has been declared by the City Council upon
recommendation of LDRRM Council.
For Ormoc City, the 30% of five percent LDRRM fund was reflected as lump sum for the food and non-
food requirements during disaster response, recovery and rehabilitation phase. It is important to note
that lump sum and no specific amount reflected for food and non-food items was considered because
during actual response and rehabilitation activities, it is very difficult to foresee how much allocation
should be assigned for food and non-food item considering the unique characteristics of each disasters.

The LDRRM Fund Financial Projection

Based on the proposed 5-year budget of Ormoc City, the total 5% LDRRM Fund of the city for the next
five years (2016 – 2020) amounts to Three Hundred Eleven Million Three Hundred Sixty Thousand
and One hundred Pesos (P 311,360,100). The seventy percent of the 5% LDRRM Fund is computed at
Two Hundred Seventeen Million, Nine Hundred Fifty Two Thousand and Three
Hundred Seventy Pesos (P 217,952,370.00) for the next five years. The balance of thirty percent
amounting to Ninety Three Million, Four Hundred Seven Thousand and Seven Hundred Thirty Pesos
(P 93,407,730.00) will be set aside as a Quick Response Fund (QRF) per RA 10121 guidelines and related
Memorandum Circulars (MCs) and Joint Memorandum Circulars (JMCs) issued by the DILG, DBM, COA
and the NDRRMC. In order to come to a realistic and conservative financial planning and budgeting,
the LDRRMC of Ormoc City have decided to follow the circulars that allows only utilizing 70% of the 5%
LDRRM fund for mitigation, prevention, preparedness and climate change adaptation. Below is the
breakdown of the city’s 5-Year LDRRM Fund.

Barangay Disaster Coordinating Council (BDCC) shall cease to exist and its power and functions
shall henceforth be assumed by the existing Barangay Development Council.
The LDRRMC structural composition of Ormoc City Disaster Risk Reduction and Management
Council shall be headed by the City Mayor. Members of LDRRMC are divided into four committees
namely; 1) Disaster Prevention and Mitigation Committee, 2) Disaster Preparedness Committee,
3) Disaster Response Committee and 4) Disaster Rehabilitation and Recovery Committee.
Just like the structure of NDRRMC, the specific membership of every committee were identified
not as individual members but rather per LGU department to ensure the continuity of the
programs being identified in this 5-year LDRRM Plan. According to the LDRRMC it is very strategic
to identify the committee members as per LGU department compared to appointing individuals,
because people in the LGU departments will come and go but the department will remain even if
a new set of political leaders will be elected every elections.
The Table below will highlight the members of the LDRRMC per committee. Ormoc City

Identified Emergency Evacuation Areas of Ormoc City

In compliance with RA 10121 and Memorandum Circulars on Disaster Risk Reduction issued by the
Department of Interior and Local Government (DILG), Ormoc City through its Local Disaster Risk
Reduction and Management Office (LDRRMO) have identified possible evacuation areas in
preparation for a worst case scenario happening.
Ormoc City to date has a population of around 25,791 households. With an assumption that 20%
of the population will be affected in a worst case scenario, 6,500 household will have to be
evacuated. Taking into account each family will require a minimum of 8 sqm living space, a total
of 4 hectares (6,500 families x 8 sqm = 52,000 sqm) will be critically needed as evacuation site.
Sorely lacking this huge area requirement at present, the CDRRM Council has settled on a solution
of accounting of four 3 in 1 buildings and all available spaces in all private and public schools, the
private sector, and the 110 barangays in the city with facilities such as Gymnasiums & Halls, Ball
fields & covered Courts, Classrooms, Churches & Chapels, Barangay halls & Government buildings,
and other such similar places which have been flood free in the past and assessed to be relatively
safe and secure as evacuation sites in the near future.
The LDRRM Office through the mandate of the LDRRM Council shall establish and maintain a strong
link and coordination with school heads, barangay captains as well as heads of institutions and the
private sector, and if possible execute a memorandum of agreement (MOA) between the city and
these entities to ensure that utilization of such facilities will be granted during emergencies.

Incident Command System of Ormoc City
Defining the Incident Command System of Ormoc City will be critical to avoid confusion among the
key players in disaster response and will greatly help the LDRRMO and BDRRMCs to facilitate a
systematic and orderly response operations when a calamity strikes. The ICS of the city will be
divided into two Emergency Command Protocols, 1) The Barangay Emergency Command Protocol
and 2) City-wide Emergency Command Protocol.
 The Barangay Emergency Command Protocol – When a disaster strikes in a barangay the
responsibility to take lead in the response operations lies with the Barangay Captain, to be
assisted by the Barangay Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Committee. All support
groups coming from the city and other areas responding to the emergency in the barangay
should report first to the Barangay Captain for proper briefing and instructions before any
response operation can be initiated by the group. The BDRRMC will as soon as practicable
conduct Damage Assessment and Needs Analysis of the disaster and the information
gathered will be the official report to be submitted to LDRRMO for proper action. The
BDRRMC will also initiate the establishment of a Command Post or Operations Center, if
necessary, to have an organized and effective response.
 The City-wide Emergency Command Protocol – When two or more barangays are affected by
an Emergency/Disaster situation, the responsibility for immediate response at all levels rest
with the LDRRM Office. The LDRRM Officer or the City Mayor will act as the Incident
Commander and Ormoc Rescue will immediately initiate the Emergency Command Protocol
and coordinate the medical, rescue and evacuation procedures to be assisted by the City
Health Office (CHO), City Social Welfare office, Planning and Development Office (CSWDO),
Philippine National Police, Bureau of Fire, Red Cross, Department of Education, the BDRRMCs
concerned, and other agencies tasks with the capability to respond and assist in such an
emergency. The City Administrator’s Office, as head of DANA of the LDRRMO, will conduct
the Damage Assessment and Needs Analyses that will serve as the official
documentation/report of the city, to be submitted to the Sangguniang Panglungsod for the
declaration of a State of Calamity if necessary, and to the higher authorities for assistance of
any kind.
Ormoc City DRRM Operations Center and Emergency Operations Center

In Section 12(c) of the Republic Act 10121, the provincial, city, and municipal DRRMOs including
Barangay DRRM Committees shall establish its own operations center. The Ormoc City DRRM

to the LDRRM Officer.
General Monitoring and Evaluation Framework

Monitoring and evaluation is the process of gathering, filing, accessing and analyzing information
that will enable the City Mayor as LDRRM Council Chairman, to determine the progress of the

implementation of the LDRRM Plan, and make timely decisions to ensure that progress is
maintained according to schedules and targets.
The public dissemination of the outputs of monitoring and evaluation activities enhances
transparency in management.
