NDRMMC has contingency preparations in place in case of extended Taal disturbance.

MANILA, Philippines β€” The National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council (NDRRMC) said its contingency plans are in place in case the Taal Volcano continues to erupt.

“Kasi nung 2020 tapos 2021, nagkaroon ng activity itong si Taal ay napaghandaan na po natin, meron po tayong contingency plans for the Taal emergency at lahat po ng mga leksyon na natutunan natin dun sa mga nakaraang mga operations natin ay ina-app

The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (Phivolcs) will also be closely monitoring the volcano’s activity for the next two weeks, according to Timbal.

He went on to say that having this much time allowed them to make an arrangement for the evacuees that would last more than two weeks if they had to stay in evacuation centers.

Timbal stated that uniformed law enforcement personnel from the Armed Forces of the Philippines, Philippine National Police, Bureau of Fire Protection, and Philippine Coast Guard are always ready to assist in evacuation operations.

Personnel from the Departments of Health and Social Welfare and Development have also been dispatched to monitor evacuees’ health and manage the situation in the evacuation centers.

As of Tuesday, 1,142 families were living in 17 evacuation facilities, according to Timbal.

He said that these figures equate to 3,771 people. In Batangas, another 265 families, or 1,203 people, are staying with friends and relatives.

Agoncillo, Balete, Cuenca, Laurel, Lemery, Talisay, and San Luis are among the local government units affected by Taal Volcano’s continued magmatic instability, according to Timbal.

He also informed the public that no one is left on the Taal Volcano Island, despite continued efforts to persuade residents in high-risk barangays to flee their homes.
