PRE-PLANNING WORKSHOP | Contingency PLAN Form 1 HAZARD ANALYSIS | STATUS OF Online Submission by Barangay

This section provides a real-time snapshot of the progress of each barangay in Rosario, Batangas in submitting Contingency Form 1 – Hazard Identification as part of the ongoing community-based disaster risk reduction efforts.

The online submission of Form 1 marks the first step in contingency planning at the barangay level, where each community identifies its priority hazards, hazard areas, and critical exposure elements. Tracking the status of submissions helps the Municipal Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Office (MDRRMO) ensure active participation, monitor compliance, and identify areas needing technical support.

Regularly updated, this dashboard reflects our commitment to transparent, inclusive, and data-driven DRRM planning—empowering barangays to take the lead in preparing for and reducing disaster risks.

Status ng Online Submission ng Contingency Form 1 ng bawat Barangay

Dito makikita ang kasalukuyang status ng bawat barangay sa Rosario, Batangas pagdating sa pagsusumite ng kanilang Contingency Form 1 – Hazard Identification.

Ang form na ito ang unang hakbang sa paggawa ng contingency plan ng barangay. Dito nila inililista ang mga pangunahing hazard, mga lugar na maaaring maapektuhan, at ang mga critical na bagay o tao na maaaring malagay sa panganib.

Sa pamamagitan ng online tracking na ito, mas madaling mamonitor ng MDRRMO kung sino na ang nakapagsumite, sino ang kailangan pa ng tulong, at kung gaano kaaktibo ang bawat barangay sa kanilang DRRM planning.

Layunin nitong mapalakas ang participasyon ng bawat barangay at matiyak na ang paghahanda sa sakuna ay sabay-sabay at koordinado. Isa itong hakbang patungo sa mas ligtas at mas handang Rosario.

Introduction:

Contingency Planning (CP) is a vital component of disaster preparedness and response in the Municipality of Rosario, Batangas. Aligned with Republic Act No. 10121 and other national directives, CP serves as a structured and participatory process that empowers stakeholders to anticipate, prepare for, and respond effectively to worst-case scenarios brought about by natural or human-induced hazards. It strengthens institutional readiness, supports coordinated action, and ensures timely, efficient deployment of resources when emergencies strike. 

Key Highlights:

• What is Contingency Planning?

Contingency Planning is a scenario-based, forward-looking planning process designed to anticipate the worst-case impacts of specific hazards. It incorporates structured preparedness, response arrangements, and resource mobilization well ahead of an actual disaster or crisis.

• Why It Matters:

In a hazard-prone country like the Philippines, CP plays a crucial role in minimizing loss of life, ensuring continuity of governance, and enhancing coordination among agencies. It strengthens readiness not only for disasters like typhoons or earthquakes but also for planned events and crises such as bomb threats or mass gatherings.

• Legal and Policy Foundation:

CP is mandated under RA 10121 and further supported by the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction, Executive Order No. 82 (s. 2012), and the NDRRMC-NSC Joint Memorandum Circular No. 1, s. 2016. Local government units are required to formulate hazard-specific CPs as part of their DRRM mandates.

• The CP Process Includes:

  1. Background and Hazard Analysis

  2. Goal Setting and SMARTER Objectives

  3. Response Arrangements (Clusters, EOC, ICS)

  4. Activation and Deactivation Triggers

  5. Annexes (e.g., maps, resource inventories, EOC/IMT organizational charts)
     
     

• Tools and Forms:

The CP Guidebook provides 11 structured forms—from hazard analysis (CP Form 1) to incident command system set-up (CP Form 11)—to support data-driven, participatory planning with agencies, local responders, and civil society stakeholders.

• Living Document:

A CP is not a one-time output. It must be continuously tested, evaluated, updated, and improved to reflect new threats, lessons learned, and institutional changes. It is best activated when early warning signs emerge and may be adapted as a continuing or integrated plan.

Call to Action:

DRRM Rosario encourages all barangays, municipal departments, and partner institutions to embrace contingency planning not as a technical formality, but as a life-saving governance tool that prepares our communities for the unexpected.
