DECLARATION OF STATE OF CALAMITY
 WHY WE NEED TO DECLARE STATE OF CALAMITY?

1. To facilitate relief and rehabilitation efforts in calamity affected areas.

2. To control prices and prevent hoarding of basic commodities.
3. To carry out remedial measures in the affected areas such as grant of
calamity loans to disaster victims, moratorium in the payment of taxes
and release of funds from the national and local governments.
WHO MAY DECLARE?

1. President of the Republic of the Philippines upon the

recommendation of the NDRRMC.

2. Local Government Units (LGUs) through the Local

Sanggunian upon the recommendation of the LDRRMC.
WHAT ARE THE CRITERIA FOR THE DECLARATION?
At least two or more of the following conditions are present in the affected areas;

1. 20% of the population is affected and in need of assistance, or 20% of the dwelling units have been
destroyed.

2. 40% of the means of livelihood are destroyed.

3. Major roads and bridges are destroyed and impassable.

 CAN THE BARANGAY DECLARE A STATE OF
CALAMITY IN THEIR RESPECTIVE AOR?
Yes, LGU’s can declare their areas under state of
calamity as the need arises. Since a barangay is
the smallest unit of our political system, it is
within the scope of the provision.
