Ifugao under state of calamity due to ‘Pedring’
Sunday, October 2, 2011
LAGAWE, Ifugao – The local government of Ifugao placed the province under a state of calamity after Typhoon Pedring left the province isolated, killing four people and injuring 17 others, including a one-year-old baby.
Ifugao Governor Eugene Balitang said a P6-million quick response fund is ready for release to mitigate the severe effects of the typhoon.
Last Wednesday, a resolution was passed by the Provincial Disaster Risk Reduction Management Council (PDRRMC) requesting for the immediate declaration of the province under a state of calamity.
Meanwhile, declared dead were Ryan Nanglegan, 14; Angelie Gano, 8; Linda Humiding, 45; and Maribel Pugong, 2. The fatalities, all residents of Hingyon, died after their respective houses were buried by slides.
As of press time, a certain Terrence Dumapis from the municipality of Banaue was declared missing.
The disaster council listed 17 people injured. Partial list includes Nardo Galotia, Lydia Batton, Nardo Galotia, Albert Humiding, Manuel Pugong, Marinel Pugong and Battad Humiding, a one-year-old baby.
P172 million agri damages
As of 2 p.m. of September 30, the PDRRMC recorded 1,419 families affected, with 112 totally damaged and 1,383 partially damaged houses.
The typhoon also noted a partial list of about 172 million worth of agricultural damages.
Balitang said the list accounts for 91 out of 175 barangays of Ifugao, and covered ten out of the eleven municipalities.
As of press time, the province is isolated after the Burnay Bridge located in Tungngod, Lagawe, collapsed at about 12:45 p.m. of September 27.
The bridge is the main thoroughfare connecting the province to adjacent provinces. Other neighboring provinces of Mountain Province and Benguet are also closed due to series of landslides.
The Dugong Bridge is currently closed to all commuters. An alternate route, the Cudog-Mungayang-Kiangan road, is currently being used for light vehicles.
Earlier, Balitang ordered the provincial engineering office to immediately put up a temporary cable footbridge for commuters to be able cross the river.
Board Member Robert Mangyao, acting Provincial Disaster Officer, said the bridge, which is about 74 meters long, will hopefully be finished within two to three days.
The Guihob Bridge in Banaue collapsed also last Monday, cutting off Banaue from the municipalities of Mayoyao, Aguinaldo and Alfonso Lista.
The Department of Public Works and Highways and the Provincial Engineering Offices are already clearing slides in all municipalities.
Price control
Vice Governor Pedro Mayam-o said the PDRRMC adopted Wednesday a resolution to ensure the sufficiency of prime commodities after the collapse of the Dugong Bridge, which greatly affected trade and commerce.
Fuel suppliers earlier increased fuel prices from P53 to P60.
“A local price coordinating council was created primarily to come up with measures to ensure that prices of goods remain at levels prior to the typhoon,” said DTI Director Val Baguidudol.
He added the council will also step up monitoring activities to ensure there will be no untoward movement in prices especially hording activities.
Baguidudol said supplies of basic goods are still under control and goods will last up to two weeks in the capital town. Fuel will probably last for a week. Earlier, storeowners were requested not to sell goods on wholesale to distribute goods to more families. (Maribelle Bimhoya)
