It identifies strategies, and their corresponding programs, projects and activities (PPAs) that serve as inputs to provincial investment program, budgeting and implementation. The PDPFP serves as the link between national, regional and city/municipal development plans. Within this context, policies and priorities enunciated by the national government are effectively translated into a lower level provincial plan to be more responsive to local situation. The Provincial Development Council (PDC) and the Governor as PDC Chairman provide the over-all policy direction in formulating the PDPEP. They are assisted by the PDPEP Technical Working Group that takes change of the document's technical preparation, including the consultation and approval process. The PDPFP of Oriental Mindoro aims to align its PPAs with the development thrusts of the current local political leaders, hence it their two three-year political terms, from 2013 - 2019, The state of the province by the year 2020 is clearly perceived by the provincial community through the Governor whose active support is considered the single important factor that can enhance the quality of this plan document. ‘The PDPFP consists of the following major parts: Part |, Introduction contains the brief historical background and other interesting features of the province, objectives, context, coverage and outline of the plan. Part II, Vision describes the long-term state of the province expressed through consultation with stakeholders Part Ill. Planning Environment describes and analyses of social, economic and physical environment of the province to understand its present development status, potentials and challenges that serve as bases for identifying the appropriate courses of action. Part IV, Development Goals, Issues and Objectives/Targets, Strategies, Programs and Projects identifies development problems based on the analysis of the plan environment, the goals and formulates corresponding strategies implemented by determining specific PPAS.

Oriental Mindoro Provincial Development and Physical Framework Plan, 2013-2019 ORIENTAL MINDORO Provincial Development and Physical Framework Plan, 2013-2019 Introduction 1. HisToRICAL BACKGROUND Fed 1.2 Part |. Introduction Part Introduction THE ISLAND OF “MINA DE ORO” Legend has it that long before the Spaniards discovered the Philippines, Mindoro was already among the islands that enchanted pilgrims from other countries. It was said that vast wealth was buried in the area, and mystic temples of gold and images of anitos bedecked the sacred grounds of this relatively unknown land. The Spaniards even named the island "Mina de Oro", believing it had large deposits of gold. The history of Mindoro dates back before the Spanish time. Records have it that Chinese traders were known to be trading with Mindoro merchants. Trade relations with China where Mindoro was known as "Mai" started when certain traders from "Mai" brought valuable merchandise to Canton in 892 A.D. ‘The geographic proximity of the island to China Sea had made possible the establishment of such relations with Chinese merchantmen long before the first Europeans came to the Philippines. Historians claimed that China-Mindoro relations must have been earlier than 892 A.D, the year when the first ship from Mindoro was recorded to have sailed for China, Historians believed that the first inhabitants of Mindoro were the Indonesians who came to the island 8,000 to 3,000 years ago. After the Indonesians, the Malays came from Southeast Asia around 200 B.C. The Malays were believed to have extensive cultural contact with India, China and Arabia ong before they settled in Philippine Archipelago. Discovery Mindoro was first discovered by Miguel Lopez de Legaspi, the first Spanish Governor General of the Philippines. When Legaspi conquered Cebu in 1565, he heard of a flourishing settlement in Luzon. The search for abundant food evidently lacking in most Visayas Islands prompted the exploration leading to the discovery of this island. Captain Martin de Goiti, accompanied by Juan de Salcedo, sailed for Luzon. On May 8, 1570, they anchored somewhere in \doro Coast, north of Panay. Salcedo and de Goiti had the chance to explore the western part of the island, particularly Ilin, Mamburao and Lubang. From Ilin, Salcedo sailed north of Mamburao where he found two Chinese vessels containing precious cargo of gold thread, cotton cloth, silk, gilded porcelain bowls and water jugs to be exchanged for gold with the natives of Mindoro. In 1 Oriental Mindoro Provincial Development and Physical Framework Plan, 2013-2019 Part Introduction 1571, Miguel Lopez de Legaspi also visited the island and brought the natives under the Spanish rule. 1.3 EVANGELIZATION The evangelization of Mindoro started in 1572 through the Augustinians. In 1578 the Franciscans took over and ten years later the secular priests. Also in the seventeenth century did a new phase in Christianization begin for the Mangyans were likewise visited by missionaries. The Jesuits erected seven “reducciones” in 1636. It was in these settlements that Mangyans from the inaccessible forests and hills were induced to settle down and be baptized as Christians. 1.4 THE PROVINCE OF MINDORO Mindoro, which was formerly integrated into the province of Bonbon (Batangas) together with Marinduque, was made a separate province in the beginning of the seventeenth century. The island was divided into pueblos headed by gobernadorcillo and composed of several barangays headed by cabeza de barangay. Minolo (now Puerto Galera) became the provincial capital, then Baco and finally Calapan which was founded in 1679 as a result of conflict between the Recollect priests and the Provincial Governor. ‘THE SPANISH GOVERNMENT In 1801, the Spanish authorities started a program of re-populating Mindoro but such attempts failed since the people were afraid to migrate to the province. Those who were eventually sent to Mindoro still returned to their homes after several years. It was only in the second half of the 19th century that the island's population started to increase due to demographic pressure in the main settlement centers. This resulted in the founding of new administrative units. The number of pueblos increased and education expanded. However, the number of teachers available was limited such that very few were able to read and write and speak Spanish. These people formed the small native upper class in the province. In terms of trade and agriculture, change came very slowly to Mindoro. In 1870, only minor quantities of crops were shipped out to Batangas due to neglected agricultural development. The coal mines between Bulalacao and Semirara Island were discovered in 1879. In 1898, the Spanish colonial government granted titles for nine coal mines but exploitation in large quantities never took place. Oriental Mindoro Provincial Development and Physical Framework Plan, 2013-2019 LS Part Introduction When the Philippine Revolution broke out in 1898, Mindorefios rallied to overthrow the Spanish Government in the province; although the uprising predominantly originated from outside the island as planned, organized and triggered off by the Cavitefios and Batanguefios. This was not for social changes but an anti-colonial war to gain independence. However, their victory was short-lived because the events that followed marked the beginning of the American Regime in the Philippines. THE AMERICAN REGIME The victory of Admiral Dewey over the Spaniards in Manila on August 13, 1898 brought about general changes in Mindoro. A general primary school system with English as the language of instruction was established. Calapan port was opened to inter-island commerce. The U.S. Army Signal Corps connecting Calapan and Batangas installed a series of military cables. Land telegraph for public use was also installed in Calapan and Naujan. With the construction of provincial road along the east coast, the most important towns of the province were connected with one another. Free trade was established between the U.S.A. and the Philippines that brought about significant changes in the economy of Mindoro. Infrastructure and economic measures were adopted which induced massive wave of migration to the island. Changes in the affairs of the local government also took effect in the island. Mindoro was made a sub-province of Marinduque on June 23, 1902 by virtue of Act No. 423 of the Philippine Commission. On November 10, 1902, Act No. 500 separated Mindoro from its mother province, thereby organizing its provincial government. The same Act provided further that "the province shall consist the main island and the smaller islands adjacent thereof, including the islands of Lubang, Caluya and Semirara". Puerto Galera was made the seat of government, with Captain R.C. Offley as the first civil governor. In 1907, the province was allowed to elect its first delegate in the person of Don Mariano Adriatico. Mindoro was finally declared a regular province in 1921, In the years following the invasion of Mindoro by the United States Forces, there had been a considerable increase in population due to the pouring into the highly underpopulated island of a massive influx of new settlers. For the first time, the development and cultivation of the island's interior was made possible. The structure of society and the distribution of landholdings were likewise altered. The minority policy of the Americans was adopted, uplifting the Mangyans to the Filipino majority's level of civilization through special educational regulation and separate settlements. THE PROVINCE OF ORIENTAL MINDORO- World War Il wrought heavy damages, death and pain to the people of Mindoro. However, social conditions continued to exist without any definitive changes. After the war, reconstruction and rehabilitation of infrastructure and 5 Oriental Mindoro Provincial Development and Physical Framework Plan, 2013-2019 Part. Introduction economy took place which ended with the division of the island into two provinces of Oriental Mindoro and Occidental Mindoro on June 13, 1950, It was finally signed into law through Republic Act 505 by the President of the Philippines on November 15, 1950. In the decades after the war, the island continued to become one of the preferred areas of new settlers coming from the overpopulated provinces in the Philippines in search of the new land. Apart from the hope to become landowners or to have better tenancy conditions, the guerrilla war (Huk rebellion) in Central Luzon was an important factor for migration. Under the settlement program of the National Resettlement and Rehabilitation Administration (NARRA) which was founded on June 18, 1954, families from Central Luzon were settled in the Bongabong-Pinamalayan area. This project ended in 1956 after the settlement of 606 families (3,636 people) on 8,600 hectares of public land. Since then new settlers have incessantly migrated to Mindoro until today. Due to demographic changes, an administrative reorganization of the province of Oriental Mindoro was implemented. Here, the rapidly expanding municipalities of Bongabong and Pinamalayan, as well as the large municipalities of Naujan and Pola were separated. Victoria (in 1953), Bansud (in 1959), Socorro (in 1963) and Gloria (in 1966) became independent municipalities. In 1963, the citrus fruit industry in the provinces of Batangas and Laguna collapsed because of plant diseases. For this reason many farmers migrated to Mindoro and settled down in Pola. Here, the "calamansi revolution’, as it was called, was initiated. Owing to the absence of competition on the other hand, the production of coconuts had retained the rank as Oriental Mindoro's number one cash and export crop. After the proclamation of Martial Law in 1972, the National Government and the World Bank implemented the agrarian development program in the province. Considerable funds were allocated to improve the provincial roads in Oriental Mindoro to connect the semi-isolated barrios to the main roads for easier and faster transport of agricultural products to the local market. The cultivation of subsistence crops (rice and corn) was given top priority. Mindoro became not only self-reliant in the production of rice but also a rice net exporter. In spite of undeniable improvements, the integrated agrarian development program did not affect any structural changes in land distribution because only rice and corn lands were under land reform. These lands were very limited in extent. Coconut plantations and extensive pasture lands were exempted. Most of the Mindoro farmers still owned their parcels of land and in some areas there were still land resources available. In the years that followed, the social and economic situation of most of the population in Mindoro worsened. Debts and low income characterized the farm households’ situation. The increasing influx of migrants caused more and more serious land conflicts with the Mangyans, the original inhabitants of the island. The operation of the New People's Army (NPA) extended to Mindoro. Their main 4 Oriental Mindoro Provincial Development and Physical Framework Plan, 2013-2019 Part |. Introduction area of action up to present has been the hardly accessible interior of the island, In Oriental Mindoro, the "hotbed of insurgency" is the RoManBul [Roxas- Mansalay- Bulalacao] Triangle. Immediately after Corazon C. Aquino assumed the presidency after the EDSA revolution in February 25, 1986, almost all national, provincial and municipal officials were replaced by OICs. Rolleo “Bong’ Ignacio was appointed undersecretary of the Department of Natural Resources. His cousin Benjamin “Chippy” Espiritu was appointed Officer-in-Charge of the province, the mayors of the fourteen municipalities were likewise replaced. Only Mayor Renato U. Reyes of Bongabong remained in his position. In 1993 Oriental Mindoro experienced a series of natural calamities unprecedented in the history of the province. These successive strong typhoons “Naning’, “Pepang” and “Rosing’ struck the northern, central and southern parts of Mindoro within a span of four months causing floods, destruction of roads, bridges, and other infrastructure, inflicting enormous damage to crops and properties and loss of human lives. The province was still reeling from the devastation when a more violent catastrophe hit the province. In the early hours of November 15, 1994 which was the founding anniversary of both the provinces of Oriental and Occidental Mindoro, the whole populace was jolted by an earthquake which measured 7.2 in intensity on the Richter scale, After two years, Oriental Mindoro had rebuilt the last of the 30 destroyed bridges and had more than sufficiently recovered from the losses brought by the series of calamities. Agricultural productivity started to climb and business activities became bullish. With this dramatic come-back, President Ramos during his visit on October 1, 1996 declared Oriental Mindoro as the top province in terms of calamity management and conferred to Governor Rodolfo 6. Valencia the “Outstanding Governor in Calamity Management” award. The island provinces of Oriental Mindoro, Occidental Mindoro, Marinduque, Romblon and Palawan formed in early 1996 a new socio-economic aggrupation acronymed as MIMAROPA. This is the counterpart of the CALABARZON industrial growth area composed of the mainland provinces of Cavite, Laguna, Aurora, Batangas, Rizal and Quezon. Governor Valencia of Oriental Mindoro was chosen as chairman of MIMAROPA. It was on May 17, 2002, by virtue of President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo's Executive Order No. 103, that Region IV was divided into Region IV-A and Region IV-B. Region IV-A was named as CALABARZON and Region IV-B, MIMAROPA. The same executive issuance transferred the Province of Aurora to Region III On January 30, 2003 at the University of Asia and the Pacific campus, the two Mindorefios, jointly worked hand in hand for the resolution of a major problem - the energy and power crisis. The 1st ever Power Summit was held with Governor Bartolome L. Marasigan, Sr. and Governor Jose T. Villarosa of Oriental Mindoro and Occidental Mindoro, joining efforts to formulate the Mindoro Island Power Development Plan. It was meant to thresh out vital issues ea Ortental Mindoro Provincial Development and Physical Framework Plan, 2013-2019 Part |. Introduction on power development: to explore options for electrification and to formulate viable solution to achieve long-term power generation. To promote/generate investment in the areas of power and energy, ecotourism, agriculture towards poverty alleviation, the Oriental Mindoro Investment Summit was held on April 5-7, 2006 at the Filipiniana Resort Hotel, Calapan City in partnership with the University of Asia and the Pacific, the Offices of the two Congressional Representatives, Provincial Governnient of Oriental Mindoro and Shell Malampaya Foundation as the Private Sector partner. There were pre-summit activities undertaken such as launching of ORMINVEST Website (www.orminvest.com) and Lakbay Mindoro 2006. Summit proper activities included agro-economic exhibit to showcase 14 municipalities and one city presentation of UA&P investment study for Oriental Mindoro and investor/business matching. In order to spur and accelerate economic growth in the Region Executive Order No. 682 was issued on 22 November 2007 designating Calapan City of the Province of Oriental Mindoro as the MIMAROPA Regional Government Center. This is not only to adhere to the government policy to promote regional development but to push the MIMAROPA provinces to interconnect with one another to hasten each other's development and increase the Region's contribution to national wealth. Moreover, the establishment of government center in the region was scen as a means of fostering efficient and effective delivery of government services. 2.

Oriental Mindoro Provincial Development and Physical Framework Plan, 2013-2019 ORIENTAL MINDORO Provincial Development and Physical Framework Plan, 2013-2019 Vision l Part I. Vision Part Vision for the Province of Oriental Mindoro . A province with healthy, upright and empowered citizenry living in a safe and green environment, prepared and resilient to climate change and disaster risks and governed by dynamic and responsive leadership By 2020, Oriental Mindoro is Luzon and Visayas’ FOOD BASE, PREMIER TOURISM DESTINATION and CENTER FOR INVESTMENTS. By the year 2020, the provincial community of Oriental Mindoro is envisioned to consist of healthy, upright and empowered citizens. They are capable of relating and interacting with others and have strong personal values, high morals and spiritual principles. They consider poverty and hardship as challenges to becoming active government partners in development through self-reliance, competitiveness and being in full control over their resources and decisions affecting their life. Safe and green environment characterizes Oriental Mindoro as a place undisturbed by turmoil and is free from armed violence. All its life forms enjoy the benefit of balanced ecology with responsibly and adequately built and maintained infrastructures. Trees are growing in the upland, lowland and coastal areas. Tree parks are managed in urban spaces while fruit trees and other crop-bearing plants grow in productive lands. Development is promoted and sustained all over the area without posing harm to people and environment. Oriental Mindoro Provincial Development and Physical Framework Plan, 2013-2019 Part Il. Vision ‘The communities and individuals residing in the province are prepared and resilient to climate change and disaster risks. They know and are capable of anticipating and responding effectively to the impacts of hazards, They can readily recover from adversity and misfortune. They understand that setbacks are part of life and they are willing to adopt to change and ask for help when needed. Dynamic and responsive leaders of the province will take care of the affairs of the people with focus on gender equality and the rule of law. The people of Oriental Mindoro foresee the province by 2020 as Food Base or the principal source of food for Luzon and Visayas Region, providing a reliable and stable supply of agri-based, aquaculture, marine products and livestock to CALABARZON, the National Capital Region and the provinces of Aklan, Iloilo, Capiz, Guimaras, Negros Oriental and Antique. While the current situation of Oriental Mindoro in terms of food sufficiency and security is relatively established, focus of development efforts of the province is how this food supply to the local communities and its neighboring regions will be sustained even beyond 2020. Oriental Mindoro is likewise foreseen in 2020 as a province more attractive than the rest of the country, the premier tourism destination. It is the first place to be considered by tourists when making travel plans, By then, agricultural and tourism activities are made more vibrant by the rapidly increasing skilled manpower, the quality services and facilities for life and leisure and the province's well-managed environment and natural resources. It is a desired characteristic of Oriental Mindoro to be the center for investments, a place better than the rest of the country for making a living, There are at present three economic growth centers in the province ~ Calapan City, Pinamalayan and Roxas. They are the localities where business thrives, trade and industry is growing and infrastructure and utilities are more reliable and affordable than other areas. Investment promotion centers are to be established in Calapan, Pinamalayan and Roxas and Puerto Galera. Likewise, the economy of the Municipality of Victoria is seen to be fast growing so that by 2020, it is expected to be converted from small town to medium town status based on the draft Provincial Development and Physical Framework Plan (PDPFP) hierarchy of urban centers, 10 Oriental Mindoro Provincial Development and Physical Framework Plan, 2013-2019 Ll ORIENTAL MINDORO Provincial Development and Physical Framework Plan, 2013-2019 The Planning Environment Part Ill The Planning Environment Part The Planning Environment Chapter 1.

It is affected by tropical cyclones, earthquake, tsunami and floods. An average of four typhoons hit the province in a year. Flashflood occurred twice every five years while an earthquake happened in 1994. The most. frequent hazard that affects the province is flood which results from either typhoon or excessive rainfall. ‘Typhoon Utor (Feria) in 2001 is the worst of these disasters that caused the loss of 223 human lives. Two typhoons in 2006, namely typhoon Seniang and Caloy destroyed a total of 186,346 houses and affected 81,860 families, respectively Flashfloods that happened in December 2005 brought damage to 304 or 71 percent of the total number of barangays affecting 82,834 families or 288,464 persons. Total estimated damages amounted to PhP325,450,000.00. The 1994 Mindoro Earthquake with magnitude of 7.1- centered 11 km N22°W of Baco, Mindoro, near Verde Island that generated a local destructive tsunami is the scariest disaster that hit the whole province. The combined effects of the earthquake and tsunami killed a total of 83 people, injured 430, damaged or destroyed 7,566 houses, entirely broken down the communications system, disrupted water supply, knocked out power over wide areas, damaged roads, destroyed or damaged 67 bridges, and sunk numerous fishing boats. ‘These natural hazards brought considerable damage to lives and properties of Mindorefios amounting to PhP1,030,700,490.00 and have greatly affected the production and marketing of agricultural products. A list of some of the major disasters that occurred in the province is presented in Annex 1.1 Hydrometeorological hazards Hydrometeorological hazards are natural processes or phenomena of atmospheric, hydrologic or oceanographic nature, which may cause loss of life, injury, property damage, social and economic disruption or environmental degradation. These include flood and rain-induced landslides. 15° Oriental Mindoro Provincial Development and Physical Framework Plan, 2013-2019 Chapter 1. Location, Land Area, Political Subdivisions and Hazard Profile Part Il The Planning Environment A. Flooding Flood is defined as an overflow or inundation that comes from a river or other body of water and causes or threatens damage. It is any relatively high streamflow overtopping the natural or artificial banks in any reach of a stream, 1, Sources of flooding The whole island of Mindoro is threaded with myriads of rivers and streams (Figure 2). Among these prominent rivers posing immediate hydrologic hazards in the area are Bucayao and Mag- asawang Tubig Rivers that flow in the alluvial plain of Calapan, Naujan and Victoria; and the Bongabong and Baroc Rivers in Bongabong and Roxas, respectively. The Aglubang-Mag-Asawang Tubig River Complex flows north starting from the interior mountains of Gloria, with the Aglubang flowing through Sablayan in Occidental Mindoro and re-entering the territorial area of Oriental Mindoro in Victoria, passing by the Ibolo River which joins its ow towards the Mag-AsawangTubig and Panggalaan Rivers. From Victoria the Mag-AsawangTubig flows north then eastwards towards the coast of the municipality of Naujan, Highly susceptible areas for flooding in the form of overbank river flooding and sheet flooding are confined within the floodplain and on the downstream most portions of the river systems inundation levels from 0.5 to more than 1.0 meter in depth (Annex 3). Eighty five barangays or 19.95 percent of the total 426 barangays in Oriental Mindoro are identified as highly susceptible to flooding. While Calapan City has the most number of barangays with high susceptibility, the municipality with the highest percentage to total is Baco at 62.96 percent followed by Roxas at 60 percent. ‘Table 1.3: Number and Percentage of Barangays by Flood Susceptibility Level by Municipality Baco Wy ere [6] 2] 3) nit) 1 | 370 | 27 Bansod 7 [769 pe | 6164 | 4 | s077 | 0 | 000 | 13 Bongatong [aT [are [2 | 3333 | 7 | t94a | 0 | 000 | 26 Bulalacao 0 [000 | 6 | 4000 |e | sass] 1 | eer | 16 Calapan Ciy | 19 | 3068 [33 | 5323 | 10 | 1613 | 0 000 | 62 Giora o[oa70 [18 | e667 [8 | 2063 | 0) 000 | 27 [Mansatay[ 0[ 000 | 6 | o520 [11] e471 | 0 | 000 | a7 16 Oriental Mindoro Provincial Development and Physical Framework Plan, 2013-2019 Chapter 1.

Conditions contributing to flooding Conditions that cause floods include typhoons as well as heavy or steady rain for several hours or days that saturate the ground. Flash floods occur suddenly due to rapidly rising water along a stream or low lying area. Based on geographical and hydrological studies, flooding occurs when large volume of water discharges from Mag-asawang Tubig and Bucayao Rivers. Water discharges from these rivers come from Aglubang and Ibulo rivers and upstream small tributaries which merge at the foot of the mountain between Naujan and Victoria, (Flood Rehabilitation Plan, 2006), Chapter 1.

Character of flooding in area (locations, area affected, threat expected) Based on the Oriental Mindoro Historical Disaster Data (1993- 2010), five flashfloods struck Oriental Mindoro. December 2005 flashfloods occurred in almost all municipalities in the province wherein only the municipality of Gloria was not affected. This was brought about by the three-day rainfall reaching a total of 194 millimeters on 6 December and 77 millimeters on 17 December 2005 (as reported by PAGASA). Heavy rainfall resulted to large discharges in both Mag-asawang Tubig and Bucayao Rivers. Family victims totaled 82,834 or 288,464 persons. Three casualties in Calapan City and Pinamalayan were reported due to drowning.

Location, Land Area, Political Subdivisions and Hazard Profile Part Il The Planning Environment Water from Aglubang and Ibulo rivers, including discharges from smaller tributaries upstream merged at the foot of the mountain between Villa Cerveza, Victoria, and San Andres Putik, Naujan. The confluence of Aglubang and Ibulo rivers formed the Mag-asawang Tubig River in the area at the transition from the mountainous terrain to sprawling floodplains of Naujan, Calapan and parts of Victoria and Baco. During high water discharge, considerable water yolume of flow from Mag-asawang Tubig River was diverted to Bucayao River. The diversion of water occurred in two locations at the western bank of Mag-asawang Tubig River: ‘just above the point of confluence of Aglubang and Ibulo Rivers due to greater flow contribution, hence, greater momentum and flow of water from Aglubang River, and * opposite Muyod in Villa Cerveza, Victoria as the flow was deflected by the solid high ground flows diverted from Mag- asawang Tubig merged further downstream and eventually joined the flow in Bucayao River. This resulted in exceptionally high water level in Bucayao River beyond its capacity and breached the dike due to scouring at the curved section of the river in Sitio Buhuan of Barangay Comunal in the City of Calapan. As a result, the large volume and uncontrollable flow of water spilled over the areas of Calapan City, Naujan and some parts of Victoria and Baco, causing flooding in above-mentioned areas. Heavy rains on 17 January 2010 resulted to the overflowing of riverbanks along Bucayao and Mag-asawang Tubig Rivers. Said weather bance triggered flooding in 56 barangays of the municipalities of Naujan and Baco affecting 1,875 and 2,277 fami respectively. Five barangays in the municipality of Victoria and Calapan City were also affected by flashflood with 1,724 families or 8,528 persons, With this disaster 2 people were reported dead and 346 injured. Total damage to infrastructure facilities and agricultural crops/livestock amounted to PhP27.81 million and PhPO.69 million, respectively. 20 Oriental Mindoro Provincial Development and Physical Framework Plan, 2013-2019 Chapter 1.

Of the province's total area, about 30 percent is flood prone. Most municipalities are coastal and situated in the floodplains of rivers. Three major rivers, the Baco, Bucayao and Mag-asawangTubig drain the excess water from CalapanCity, Naujan, Baco, San Teodoro and Victoria ‘Among the lowland and coastal areas in Calapan City, Barangay Masipit has the most probability to flooding. Other barangays which are susceptible to flooding are Del Razon and Guinhawa in Pinamalayan, Lumangbayan in San Teodoro, Bayuin and Malugay in Socorro and San Narciso in Victoria. (CCHAMP) The maps from NAMRIA which were presented in the “Lessons Learned from the 2011 Floods (The Philippines Country Report)” by PAGASA-DOST showed the province of Oriental Mindoro as having “1 in 1 year” frequency of tropical cyclone occurrence (Annex 4). It is also number 9 in the Top 10 flood prone provinces in the country. The other provinces are Pampanga, Nueva Ecija, Pangasinan, Tarlac, Maguindanao, Bulacan, Metro Manila, North Cotabato and Ilocos Norte (Annex 5). B. Rain-induced Landslides Rainfall has been known as the most common factor in occurring landslides. In general, infiltration of rainfall in soil causes to increase soil water pressure, reduce matric suction and increase the weight of soil ‘mass and finally, soil strength decreases and landslide occurs.2 Rainfall-induced landslides can be triggered by two main mechanisms: shear failure due to build-up of pore water pressure and erosion by surface water runoff when flow velocity exceeds a critical value * Physical Geography Research Quarterly (nso 6 /paze/stee- tame noiango-enéarte *The Smithsonian/NASA Astrophysics Data System(iura//odsohs.norvord edu/abx/2009AGURMNHA4A.
