III. Alert level

0 Alert Level or Quiet


Background values are present for all tested metrics. Unremarkable
quantity of volcanic earthquakes are taking place near the volcano.
typically, minimal steam emission.

Level 1
is the lowest level of volcanic unrest; there will be minor volcanic
earthquakes and gas activity at this level. The temperature of the hot
springs will rise. The volcano is still not erupting at this level.

Level 2
refers to moderate volcanic unrest, which includes earthquakes, gas
activity, and ash explosions, and can eventually lead to volcanic
eruption.

Level 3
indicates that a magmatic intrusion is probably what is causing the
activity. Additionally, there is "quite high unrest exhibited by seismic
swarms, including an increase in the frequency of low frequency
earthquakes and/or harmonic tremor" (some events felt).

Level 4
severe turbulence, ongoing seismic swarms, frequent steaming along
existing and maybe manufacturer vents and fissures, and/or "low
frequency earthquakes" that are usually felt.

Level 5
lava fountaining or lava flows; dangerous eruption ongoing while
alert level 5 is in effect. settlements west of the volcano face severe
dangers, and downwind areas experience ashfalls.

IV. Government and non-government agencies that assist people during


a disaster.

National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council


(NDRRMC) – Ndrrmc monitor all disaster risk reduction
management activities. It helps the people by giving them warnings
or signals when there’s a disaster.

Local government units (LGU) – They provide services and facilities


to people. When a disaster strikes, they control every aspect of the
community's recovery. They also share preparedness to their people
through education and communication.

Kapuso foundation – The GMA Kapuso Foundation was established


by GMA News Anchor Carmela "Mel" Tiangco and has spent the
past 27 years aiding and assisting the Filipino people in a variety of
significant ways.

Philippine Army – The Philippine Army's purpose is to "organize,


train, equip, deploy, and sustain ground forces in the conduct of
assistance to operations to "win the peace" in order to assist the
Filipino people in establishing a setting that is favorable to just and
durable peace as well as sustainable development."

Angat Buhay – Is a project of Leni Robredo's Office of the Vice


President (OVP) in the fight against poverty. It was established in
2016 with the goal of bringing together the public and private sectors
to address the needs of families in the country's most remote and
impoverished communities.
