OFFICE OF THE MUNICIPAL MAYOR
MESSAGE
My warmest Greetings in the name of Public Service.
Our municipality is not spared of any natural and man-made disaster or calamities. For the past years,
we had experienced several of it. Thus, the local government has come up with the comprehensive plan for
disaster preparedness and mitigation. And one of the vital components in disaster preparedness and mitigation
is the formulation of this emergency and disaster contingency plan.
This Emergency and Disaster Contingency Plan would serve as our guide and reference for all our
actions in the event disaster or emergency hits our municipality.
I am very grateful for the Municipal Risk Reduction and Management Council-Mawab, the MDRRMO
personnel and staff, the Mawab Emergency Response Team (MERT)-R.U.P.E.T. and other stakeholders for
their concerted efforts which made this plan a reality.
Lastly, I am very much optimistic that this plan will help us achieve our goal of keeping Mawab a safe
place to live.
MABUHAY ANG BAG-ONG MAWAB!

procedures. If you are not near a table, move against an interior wall, and protect your head with your
arms. Do not be surprised if the fire alarm system is activated. Once shaking has stopped and it is safe

BOMB THREATS
The following information is being provided as a precautionary measure in the rare event that a bomb threat is
received. Working as a team is the best bet to obtain information about the caller and provide a safe work
environment.
Bomb threats are threats usually delivered by phone but can and have been delivered via mail, notes left at the
scene, e-mail and even given in person.
In the majority of cases, bomb threats are designed to disrupt everyday operations and do not result in bombs
being found. Most rationale for making the threats are revenge, or the “I will make life miserable for you”
scenario. However, no one can take these calls for granted and they must be taken seriously.
Historically, individuals who want to cause the most damage do not make pre warning notifications so as to
ensure a greater damage from the device.
If a bomb threat is received by phone:
Attached to this procedure is a bomb threat work sheet or checklist. It will give you lists of things to listen for
when conversing with the caller. The longer you are able to keep the caller on the phone the more information
you will obtain and the more you will find out about the caller. Generally, the call only lasts about 10 to 15
seconds unless you keep them on the phone
 As soon as the call comes in, notify someone that there is a threat
 Use the checklist to ask questions or to note items on the checklist
 Keep the caller on the phone asking all the questions on the list
 Have someone to notify the CSU, MDRRMO Mawab Operation Center or PNP

When directed by the Incident Commander (IC), make an “all clear” announcement informing all local officials,
employees, staff, clients and visitors that the situation is now safe. Ensure that all areas are informed.
PRESERVE THE FIRE / CRIME SCENE IF NEEDED
Seal off the affected area and leave it as is until released by law enforcement and/or the fire department. Have

incident. Once released, clean up and repair the scene promptly.
DIRECT THE LOCAL OFFICIALS, EMPLOYEES, STAFF, CLIENTS & VISITORS WHAT TO DO

Determine if local officials, employees, staff, clients and visitors are allowed to re-enter the building for their
personal possessions, and how people will be kept out of the hazardous areas.
Direct local officials, employees, staff, clients and visitors what to do the rest of the day and the next day. (Will
it be business as usual tomorrow?) Address both short-term and long-term actions, and keep local officials,
employees, and staff informed.
DEAL WITH THE EMOTIONAL TRAUMA

Emergencies may leave emotional scars on those involved - local officials, employees, staff, clients, visitors and
emergency responders. Brief those concerns on what to do, and assist them on how to handle their own
reactions. Make arrangements with the DSWDO or MSWDO to have available trained staff (psychologists,
counselors, etc.) to help all those affected deal with their emotions. Again, address both short-term and long-
term actions.
DOCUMENT THE INCIDENT AND DEBRIEF
Have the LGU CSU / Law Enforcement agencies, responders debrief those who were involved. Everything
written during the emergency (notes, checklists, etc.) should be retained by Local Government Unit Civil
Security Unit Chief or the Police. Get written statements from the local officials, employees, staff, clients and
visitors who were directly affected, and those who witnessed critical events. Document the incident on an
Incident Report form.
LEARN FROM THE INCIDENT
A suitable time after the incident, gather those involved and responding (Incident Management
Team/Emergency Response Team Composition) to evaluate how the situation was handled and could have been
handled better. Determine what enhancements are needed and make recommendations to update the Mawab
Emergency and Disaster Contingency Plan as needed.
