8 EXTENT AND MAGNITUDE OF POPULATION, BUILT-UP AREAS, AGRICULTURAL LANDS, AND KEY PUBLIC INFRASTRUCTURE FACILITIES EXPOSED TO FLOOD HAZARD IN ANGELES CITY Key elements at risk High susceptibility Medium susceptibility Low susceptibility Population 314,493 37,431 (11.9%) 1,183 (0.38%) 266,887 (84.86%) Built-up area 3, (1.30%) (0.38%) 3, (97.93%) (Hectares) Agricultural lands 2, (2.07%) (0.41%) 2, (93.61%) (Hectares) Provincial road (98.12%) (kilometers) National road (99.25%) (kilometers) Government building 1 1 (100%) Government hospital 1 1 (100%) Government school 6 6 (100%) Source: Angeles City CLUP (DRR+CCAM)
9 RAIN-INDUCED LANDSLIDE & EROSION THREAT Barangay Purok/Sitio Susceptibility rating Balibago Diamond Hotel and Stardust area Bridge boundary Balibago- Ninoy Aquino Very high to critical Very high to critical (riverbank scouring) Malabanias Hensonvilla Plaza Purok 1and 2 (along Abacan River) High High Margot Sapa riverbank, Purok 2 High Pandan Purok 5B (houses along Abacan River) Very high (riverbank scouring) Sapangbato Baragay Health Center, Purok 2 High Anunas Purok 1 (along Abacan River) Moderate to High Source: Mines and Geoscience Bureau- DENR, January 2014
10 EARTHQUAKE VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT Earthquake- induced hazards Susceptibility/Vulnerability level Likely affected barangays Ground-shaking Intensity VIII (Destructive) All 33 barangays Liquefaction Low Agapito del Rosario, Sta. Trinidad, Sta. Teresita, Lourdes Northwest, Lourdes Sur, Lourdes Sur East, Claro M. Recto, Cutud, Mining Virgen Delos Remedios, Sto. Cristo, Parts of Pulung Bulu, Salapungan, Pandan, Tabun, Capaya, Ninoy Aquino, Pulung Maragul, Sapalibutad, Pulung Cacutud Induced landslide Moderate to High Hilly areas of Sapangbato & Margot
11 CLIMATE CHANGE PROJECTIONS ALL AREAS OF THE PHILIPPINES WILL GET WARMER, MORE SO IN THE RELATIVELY WARMER SUMMER MONTHS. ANNUAL MEAN TEMPERATURES (AVERAGE OF MAXIMUM AND MINIMUM TEMPERATURES) IN ALL AREAS IN THE COUNTRY ARE EXPECTED TO RISE BY 0.9 C TO 1.1 C IN 2020 AND BY 1.8 C TO 2.2 C IN DURING THE SOUTHWEST MONSOON SEASON (JJA), LARGER INCREASES IN RAINFALL IS EXPECTED IN PROVINCES IN LUZON (0.9% TO 63%) AND VISAYAS (2% TO 22%) BUT GENERALLY DECREASING TRENDS IN MOST OF THE PROVINCES IN MINDANAO IN 2050.
12 CLIMATE CHANGE PROJECTIONS PROJECTIONS FOR EXTREME EVENTS IN 2020 AND 2050 SHOW THAT HOT TEMPERATURES (DAYS WITH MAXIMUM TEMPERATURE EXCEEDING 35 C) WILL CONTINUE TO BECOME MORE FREQUENT, NUMBER OF DRY DAYS (DAYS WITH LESS THAN 2.5MM OF RAIN) WILL INCREASE IN ALL PARTS OF THE COUNTRY AND HEAVY DAILY RAINFALL (EXCEEDING 300MM) EVENTS WILL ALSO CONTINUE TO INCREASE IN NUMBER IN LUZON AND VISAYAS.
13 CLIMATE CHANGE CITY RISK ASSESSMENT Relatively free from climate change triggered extreme conditions. Continuous ballooning of urban population due to the influx of emigrating people from neighboring towns. People who wants to escape the perennial flooding in their locality find Angeles City as an ideal place for relocation and settlement.
