REHABILITATION AND RECOVERY STRATEGIC PLAN ON
TYPHOON YOLANDA (HAIYAN) (2014-2017)

LGU BARUGO
PROVINCE OF LEYTE

I Introduction
Typhoon Yolanda (International name Haiyan)
made landfall at 0500 HRS with reference point
SE of Guiuan Eastern Samar moving west
northwest directly hitting Leyte Province
specifically at Tolosa, Leyte its second landfall.
Strong winds with maximum winds of 235 kph
and gustiness of 265 kph was felt in the entire
Municipality as it was just 25 kilometers away
from the eye of the said super storm. The
deadly storm wreaked havoc for almost four (4)
hours blasting continuously strong winds and
storm surges (though it was low tide that time of landfall in Barugo) coupled with heavy rainfall.
The super typhoon inflicted devastating combinations of tsunami-like storm surges, tornado-like
wind intensity and gustiness and also with heavy rainfall near its path. This catastrophic weather
event was horribly experienced by residents of Leyte, Samar and Biliran islands in its ever record
breaking first and second landfall bringing forth enormous casualties & destruction to Eastern
Visayas region.
Climate change impacts in the form of extreme weather events was personified and amplified by
Super Typhoon Yolanda in the most unprecedented manner. The damages caused by the typhoon
was very huge both in terms of social and economic conditions.
A. Pre disaster activities
November 5, 2013, at about 1:00 o clock in the afternoon, the Local Government Unit of Barugo
(LGU-Barugo) received a faxed message from the Regional Office of the Department of Interior and
Local Government (DILG) about a forthcoming Super Typhoon advisory regarding Tropical Storm
Yolanda. The Municipal Disaster Risk Reduction Management Council (MDRRMC) convened at 4:00
PM on that same day.
November 6, 2013, based on the meeting of the MDRRMC, a request was forwarded to the
Sangguniang Bayan to place the entire municipality in "State of Imminent Danger" due to the
forthcoming super typhoon. Upon its declaration, the local government immediately disbursed its
quick response fund for stockpiling of food items, medicines and spare parts for the vehicles in
preparation of disaster response operations.
The MDRRMC, also drafted an advisory letter to the Barangay Disaster Risk Reduction Management
Committee (BDRRMC) for them to convene and advise the residents to prepare and conduct pre-
emptive evacuation through house to house campaign or the so called "bandilyo". The BDRRMCs
were also advised to prepare their respective identified evacuation centers and to advise the
residents of coastal barangays to seek safer grounds outside the 40 meters danger zone.
The command center (Emergency Operation Center) was established with all the MDRRMC members
present and packing of relief goods began.
LGU BARUGO
PROVINCE OF LEYTE

November 7, 2013, the Barangay Integrated Defense Action (BIDA) action rescue volunteers were
called to be on guard and await for possible rescue operations when called for by the situations.
Forced evacuation was done especially for the coastal barangays. The forced evacuation was done
until 7:00 pm. There were 13 evacuation centers comprised of schools, day care centers, barangay
hall and the municipal gymnasium housing more than 315 families all in all. Other residents have
opted to seek safe shelter from the relatives and neighbours who have sturdy housing structures.
In the afternoon, relief goods were packed and were eventually delivered to specific Barangays that
are to be isolated whenever flooding of major rivers occurs. These barangays are Can-isak, Pongso
and Hiagsam.
B. During Disaster
November 8, 2013, delivered relief goods to the evacuation center at 5:00 AM at Minuhang
Elementary School, Celestino De Guzman Memorial National High School and Barugo I Central
School.
In the afternoon, the Municipal Mayor convened the MDRRMC and eventually requested the
Sangguniang Bayan to conduct an emergency session to be able to declare a State of Calamity. At
3:00 PM, the Sangguniang Bayan convened and declare a State of Calamity.
C. After Disaster
November 8, 2013 and onwards, Immediately after the typhoon left the town, a clearing operation
was conducted along the road networks specially the route leading to the nearby hospital, Carigara
District Hospital (CDH) located at Carigara, Leyte.
A Rapid Disaster Needs Assessment (RDANA) was conducted on November 9, 2013. On November
11, 2013, a partial RDANA report was submitted by the Municipal Disaster Risk Reduction
Management Officer (MDRRMO) to the Office of the Civil Defense (OCD) Regional Office 8.
An inventory of damages on housing, infrastructure, utilities and facilities, agriculture and casualties
was conducted.
The Municipal Mayor issued an office order that the Emergency Operation Center (EOC) will operate
on a 24 hour basis and 7 days a week which started last November 11, 2013 this a schedule for the
shift of all employees was posted.
On November 13, 2013 at about 11:30 in the morning, an attack by perceived members of the rebel
group the New People's Army (NPA) scare erupted which caused the people to panic and seek safety
at Municipal Hall and the Catholic Church at the Poblacion. The MDRRMC eventually managed to
pacify the people who might be put to danger of stampede and other form of crowd accidents. The
MDRRMC then conducted periodic meetings with Barangay officials relative to peace and order
concerns. A curfew and citizens watch was then implemented every night in various barangays.
Relief operations were conducted right after the typhoon and as of December 27, 2013, twelve (12)
rounds of relief distribution and emergency response operations were completed. Relief assistance
and provision of temporary roofing (tarpaulins) and non food items from various groups and the

II. Socioeconomic conditions in Barugo, Leyte before Super Typhoon Yolanda
Barugo, Leyte is a 4th class municipality in the Province of Leyte with 10 coastal barangays and 27
landlocked barangays. It has a total land area of 89.52 sq. kilometers. It is 50 kilometers away from
Tacloban the capital city in Eastern Visayas Region. It has a total population of 31, 103 individuals
which are predominantly farmers and fisherfolks.
Agriculture is the most dominant land use having a share of 81% with coconut having 48% share
while rice accounts for 17% and other crops such as banana, corn and vegetables accounts for the
remaining 16%. It has a forestal area along its coastline where mangroves, nipa and fishponds are
situated and accounts for 6% share of land use.
Its major economic contributor is agriculture with rice, coconut, banana and fishery as its major
agricultural produce. Service and business industry are mostly in retailing, agribusiness, sand and
gravel quarrying, and public infrastructure construction. There are also remittances from overseas
workers and immigrants.
Barugo has 36% of its population who are considered poor and considered also to be the most
vulnerable or at risk to natural hazards. The poverty level of Barugo is slightly below than the
Province of Leyte which is at 39.20% and significantly lower than the regional average at 44.74%.
Like any other rural municipalities in the country, Barugo is an Internal Revenue Allotment (IRA)
dependent local government having an IRA dependency ratio of 82%. This implies that the local
government will have to depend on the national government's financial share to provide basic social,
economic and environmental management services to include the management of its local
administrative concerns.
A. State of Development at pre Typhoon Yolanda level
The DILG's Local Governance Performance Management System (LGPMS), a self assessment tool for
measuring the LGU's annual State of Performance and every three years thereafter, the State of
Development for Economic, Social and Environmental Development. This will be the reference point
of the pre typhoon Yolanda level as to how LGU-Barugo state of local development looks like.
The scoring system of LGPMS is scored as follows: Excellent=5.00 (Dark Green); Very Good=4:00-
4.99 (Light Green); Fair=3.00-3.99 (Yellow); Poor or Low= 2.00-2.99 (Orange) and Very Low or Bad=0-
1.99 (Red).
The latest state of development index of LGU-Barugo taken from LGPMS 2012 results (full report is
contained at State of Local Governance Report 2012) is summarized and shown at the chart below;

LGU BARUGO
PROVINCE OF LEYTE

1. State of Social Development

The above graph for the State of Social Development is rated or scored as "Fair" in the overall rating.
Health and nutrition is generally good. Morbidity and mortality are within acceptable conditions.
Malnutrition incidence is below national average.
Education situation is also in a better situation compared to the national average. participation and
completion rate is higher than year 2010 benchmark.
Housing and basic utilities is also good. Informal settlers are low compared to national average
although access to water and sanitation is an issue that need to be immediately addressed.
Household access to level II and III water supply should be increased. Access to sanitary toilet facility
should also be prioritized.
Peace and order situation should also be sustained if not improved from its existing crime indices
specially on non index crime rate.

LGU BARUGO
PROVINCE OF LEYTE

1. State of Economic Development

The economic development is rated as "Bad" as shown from above. The local economy is plugged
down by low employment and low per capita income.
Unemployment rate is alarming at above 10% while the national average is only at 6.30%.
Underemployment rate is also high at above 21% in comparison to the national average if 18.1%.
Income per capita is low at a range of between Php 20,000.00- Php 34,000.00 as compared to a
national income per capita at Php 34,600.00. Poverty incidence is high whereby many families are
living below poverty threshold at a poverty index of 36%. The national poverty index is only at
26.9%.

LGU BARUGO
PROVINCE OF LEYTE

3. State of Environmental Development

Overall, the State of Environmental Development is rated "Fair".
State of urban development is poor or low. This is due to the presence of solid waste heaps at urban
areas. Segregation of wastes is not yet fully practised by households.
Agricultural ecosystem scored "Fair". Much has to be done still with expansion of irrigation facilities
to unserved areas. Crop yield has to be enhanced since it is still below the national average.
Coastal and freshwater ecosystem is also "Fair". Fish catch is decreasing for both sea and freshwater
fishery. Presence of illegal fishing is a recurring problem. Coral cover is diminishing as a result of
unregulated fishing practises and climate change impacts. Freshwater fish catch is decreasing due to
the presence of extractive operations at major rivers and also the frequent flooding which causes
siltation.
B. Past development partnership experiences with National & International Development
Agencies
Barugo is a promising town in terms of socioeconomic gains in the past decade having monumental
gains most notably in gender empowerment and environment and natural resource governance and
other developmental concerns. It garnered 7 major awards just recently in terms of Women
Economic Empowerment (WEE) as recognized by Philippine Commission on Women's (PCW) flagship
project on WEE dubbed as Gender Responsive Economic Action for the Transformation (GREAT) of
Women Project. Also, it is one of the partner local government of German International Cooperation
(GIZ) in the implementation of the Sustainable Integrated Management and Planning for LGU
Ecosystem (SIMPLE) which is aimed to provide a barangay based participatory land use planning
through community involvement. SIMPLE is aimed at gathering participatory rapid appraisal

III. DAMAGE ASSESSMENT AND NEEDS ANALYSIS (DANA)
A. Methodology
Immediately after Typhoon Yolanda leave Barugo, Leyte a Rapid Damage Assessment and Needs
Analysis (RDANA) was conducted by the RDANA Team. The MDRRMO, MSWDO and the Office of the
Municipal Agriculture also interviewed key officials from all Barangays regarding the damages, losses
and needs of their respective barangays. The office of the KALAHI-CIDDS project also conducted
damages of all barangay infrastructures and facilities.

GRAND TOTAL 2866 4633 7499 2 0 69 5834 31103

The number of casualty shows that Barugo suffered minimally as compared with other towns in
Leyte. This can be attributed to several factors such as massive pre disaster operations to all
Barangays and that the sea water was bit far from the coastal shoreline because it was low tide
during landfall of said typhoon. Forced evacuation in all coastal residents were also conducted. The
two typhoon related deaths were from Barangay Can-isak, an inland situated barangay. They were
caught along the way to seek safer shelter because they did not evacuate early to designated
evacuation centers. However, 62% of the houses were totally damage due to more than 300
kilometers per hour wind intensity according to some experts.
2. Damages to Infrastructure, Facilities and Utilities
Damages to infrastructures, facilities and utilities and these are outlined below;
Infrastructure Estimated Cost (Million)
1. School Buildings (Elementary and High Schools) 59.20
2. Roads 25.9
3. Barangay facilities and infrastructures 16.65
4. Public Utilities
Electrical 18.50
Telecommunication 2.5
5. Bridges 3.0
6. Municipal Buildings 6.0
Total 131.75

The damages incurred by these infrastructures are massive and need reconstruction the soonest
time to be able to bring back the essential public access and services to the constituents. The cost to
rehabilitate and reconstruct require considerable amount since the cost to build back better so it will
be resilient and climate change adaptive is of prime consideration. Critical public infrastructures
such as schools, bridges and other public buildings must withstand strong typhoons such as that of
Typhoon Yolanda since those will be used as "Evacuation Centers" (schools) during disaster
especially for Barugo being a flood prone and a catch basin Municipality.
3. Damages to Agriculture
Barugo being an agriculture dominant town suffered huge losses in terms of lost production and
below are the tabulated cost of damages;

- Cattle 3 0.075
- Backyard poultry 120 0.055
- Commercial poultry
(7 establishments)
6.00
Total 12.76

Damage to agriculture in Barugo is also big enough to disrupt the local economy, food security and
the livelihood of affected farmers. The most significant damage is in the coconut industry. More than
half of the coconut trees are either uprooted or cut in its mid or upper trunk leaving huge losses to
farmers in the next years. Barugo is very well known to produce the best coconut wine as well as
copra which is one of the major export products in the Eastern Visayas region. Since coconut trees
will grow and produce in some distant future (10 years), coconut farmers will be the mostly affected
sector. Almost half of the land area in Barugo is devoted to coconut and this will be a big economic
loss to Barugo.
IV BIO-PHYSICAL, ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL IMPACT
Typhoon Yolanda has altered the physical landscape of Barugo. It left behind a town that is almost
without vegetative cover right after the storm and so the heat effect of the sun is very much felt
because of less trees to absorb greenhouse gases. Access to barangays is difficult since majority of
roads are hardly passable. Barangays without bridges are even more difficult to access specially
during weather disturbances which will even cause further river erosion and widening. Mangroves
and Nipa were also partly damage and require time and effort for rehabilitation and natural
vegetation for it to regenerate. Newly planted mangroves which were part of the national greening
program were also washed out by the superstorm.
The local economy in Barugo before typhoon Yolanda is not that good since Barugo is a 4th class
Municipality and no major business investments that can spur the local economy is located within
the town thus local government services rely heavily on Internal Revenue Allotment (IRA) sans much
local revenues that can significantly provide added development interventions. Unemployment and
underemployment is already high and the per capita income is even below the national average level
of 34,600.00 per person. Magnitude of poor people living below poverty threshold is also high at
36% a figure higher than the national poverty index which is placed at 22%. The economic impact of
Typhoon Yolanda will be another major blow to the local government since it is mainly driven by the
agriculture sector.
LGU BARUGO
PROVINCE OF LEYTE

Unregulated prices of basic commodities may add up to the burden of households.
Recovery and rehabilitation plan for the agriculture sector must be able to provide immediate,
medium term and long term efforts to build up the local economy and be able to provide alternative
source of livelihood for the affected farmers and their families. The lack of capacity to buy farm
inputs and replanting materials and to cultivate farm lands will be needed to be able to supply back
food requirements in the locality and nearby locations. Farmers will e needing a lot of support from
the government and the international community.
The social impact will manifest in the coming months if not addressed right away.
Problems on safe and disaster & climate resilient housing should be the principal focus of the local
government. Property rights, land conflicts and informal settlement on easements are among the big
challenges faced both by the national and local government in Barugo.
Education maybe hampered by less family income, damaged school buildings, lost school properties
and facilities and reduced buying capacity of affected families.
Health and nutrition will be affected by poor water, sanitation and hygiene as a result of the
typhoon. Access to safe water in some barangays were affected by the damaged communal jetmatic
pumps. Increased incidence of different kinds of post typhoon illnesses will be evident due to
destroyed sanitary toilet facilities, increased humidity and reduced nutritional and immune system
of children and the elderly. Access to health services is wanting since affected families have less
capacity to seek medical services going to the town proper due to lack of financial capacity to buy
medicines and to pay transport services specially nowadays that their major livelihood which is
farming have been disrupted by the recent calamity.
Gender related issues will likely rise such as domestic violence, human trafficking, violence against
women and children and decreased food subsistence of poor families.
Several barangays more so that of upland and remote areas will not be energized immediately and
so problems on peace and order as well as energy dependent economic, social and health activities
will be a major concern to be addressed in an immediate and long term strategy.

which (1,904 families) are
enrolled in 4P's program and
have increased family
income by as much as 4
dollars a day Php 360.00.
- The local economy is
mainly driven by agriculture.

trading is very low and is
heavily competed by key
cities (Tacloban and Ormoc)
as well as nearby bigger
towns (Carigara &
Alangalang).
- Private sector investments
is also low.
Local revenues is small and
LGU is IRA dependent with a
range of 85%-90%
dependency ratio.

(Copra and Tuba
Gathering) are mostly
affected through lost
income in the next 10
years.
-Palay and vegetable
seeds difficult to avail
by most farmers.

to erratic weather and
"new normal" climate
variability.
- Local economy
triggered by
uncertainties (reduced
tax income)
- Most SMEs are
displaced with no or
lack of supplies coming
from big wholesalers
that lead to increased
prices of basic
commodities.

- Increased poverty
- Demand will increase
and supply will
decrease and will
result to weak
purchasing capacity of
the local residents.
-Cost of living will
increase.

Environment Rural and urban ecosystem
is generally good with
sufficient green cover albeit
few rivers are silted.
Coastal ecosystem
threatened with inundated
coastline, rising sea level
and decreasing fish habitat
due to deteriorating coral
reefs.
- Green cover or
vegetation and
mangroves ecosystem
were damaged.
- Coastline inundation
threatening property
lines and safety of
coastal residents
against stronger
typhoons and wave
surges.
- Imminent danger on
loss of lives and
properties of residents
within and along
coastal and river
banks.
-Increased heat effect
specially in urban
areas.
- Decreased fish catch

V. REHABILITATION AND RECOVERY IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY
The lack of a comprehensive rehabilitation and recovery strategy in the past years with disaster
occurrences have left local governments with burden to bear the impacts of disasters. Economic
deprivation, social injustice and environmental degradation have been continually piling up such
that poor towns like Barugo will not recover and will even be pulled down even more to become
poorer as natural disasters will become more extreme and more damaging to the community.
Rehabilitation and Recovery Strategic Plan on Typhoon Yolanda patterned after the Reconstruction
Assistance on Yolanda (RAY) of National Economic Development Authority (NEDA) will augur well of
an improved socioeconomic conditions and environmental stability.
