RATIONALE ‘The Philippines is a disaster prone nation and vulnerable to various natural hazards in. the form of typhoons, floods, flashfloods, tidal waves tsunami, armed conflict, landslides, fires and earthquakes. Typhoons and floods usually hits Metro Manila, the provinces of Pangasinan, Northeastern part of Luzon, Isabela, Bicol, Ormoc and other regions namely, regions 2, 3 and 4A and B and other parts of Visayas. Flashfloods occurred several times in Mindanao specifically in the provinces of Agusan del Norte and Sur of CARAGA Region, Davao del Norte and Davao del Sur of Region XI, Bicol of Region V, Maguindanao of ARMM and other parts of the country. Volcanic seismic and eruption hits Zambales, Pampanga and Bicol Region. The country is situated in the circum-Pacific seismic belt, popularly known as the "Pacific Rim of Fire’, The Philippines has 200 volcanoes, 20 of which are active. It also has active geological fault lines crossing our archipelago, thus, making it prone to earthquake and landslides. such as the Cherry Hills Antipolo of Region IV, Guinsaugon in St. Bernard of Region VII, Compostela Valley of Region XI, and some parts of the country like CAR. There are also armed conflict in Basilan and Maguindanao in ARMM and insurgencies in some parts of the country. By virtue of Republic Act 7160, also known as the Local Government Code of 1991, the local governments, specifically the provincial governments, are mandated to provide immediate basic relief assistance such as food, clothing, psycho-social support, and emergency shelter to families affected by natural or human- induced. There is a need to immediately move the disaster affected families to safe evacuation centers or safe areas because of the threat of or the actual occurrence of disasters which may cause loss of lives and destruction of properties. The orderly movement of families to safe evacuation centers and areas (school facilities , multi-purpose centers, health centers, barangay halls, chapels, churches, government buildings tents and bunk houses) is one of the most difficult tasks to undertake and manage when done only during emergencies, Families are oftentimes unwilling to leave their homes for fear of losing their valuables or because they may feel that their security at the alternate location cannot be assured. Suitable means of transportation may also be lacking, . The safety of the families or population is the primary consideration but the readiness and resources available for the purpose is oftentimes an issue depending on the ‘magnitude of the disaster where there is a need for massive evacuations to ensure The entry of the cluster approach in the country started when the Government of the Philippine (GPH) requested for international assistance through a flash appeal following Page 1the massive destruction caused by Typhoon “Reming” which heavily affected Bicol Region with a total of 627, 898 families displaced and damaged 588,031 houses in the six provinces of Bicol regions namely, Albay, Camarines Sur, Camarines Norte, Sorsogon, Masbate and Catanduanes. Asa result, the GPH and UN adopted the Cluster Approach in the country by virtue of the National Disaster Coordinating Council (NDCC) Circular No. 05, series of 2007 issued on May 10, 2007. This formally institutionalized the cluster approach in the Philippine Disaster Management System, Designation of Cluster Leads and their Term of Reference at the Nationai, Regional and Provincial level. On January 29, 2008, the then National Disaster Coordinating Council Technical Working Group (NDCC-TWG) presented the approach by the cluster leads and designation of lead government agency counterpart and its members. On October 6, 2008, pursuant to the pronouncement of the President during the September 19, 2008 meeting of the ‘Task Force on Humanitarian Assistance on IDPs, the NDCC Circular No, 5, s. 2007 and No. 4 s, 2008 was amended through Memorandum No. 12 s, 2008, merging several clusters and designation of lead government agencies. This includes the merging of DSWD lead cluster namely: (1) camp coordination and management, protection and emergency shelter cluster; and, (2) permanent shelter and livelihood cluster. ‘The aim of the institutionalization of the cluster approach is to ensure a more coherent and effective response by mobilizing partner government agencies, organizations and Non-Government Organizations (NGOs) to respond in a strategic manner across all key sectors with clearly designated lead agencies in support of the existing government coordination during disaster. Further, on May 27, 2010, RA 10121, better known as the Philippine Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Act of 2010 was signed into law, with the corresponding Implementing Rules and Regulation formulated and published for implementation. Significant features of the new law include the heavy emphasis on risk reduction and disaster preparedness which will empower the disaster and emergency responders and all other actors to proactively undertake measures in reducing the risks and impact of disasters to the communities and vulnerable families. In line with the above, this guideline is enhanced to adequately fit into the situations where new laws, new kind of hazards and population growth are issues and realities to be considered and where empowerment, capacity building and rights-based principles are basic concerns. This guideline will serve as guide to all the national government agencies members of the National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council (NDRRMC) in providing technical assistance to the Local Government Units (LGUs) specifically on the management of evacuation centers and coordination. With the adoption of the cluster approach in the country and the approval and implementation of RA 10121, there is a need to enhance and update DSWD AO 36, series of 1994 to ensure its relevance to current disaster risk reduction and ‘management practices and standards. Page 2Scope and Coverage The guidelines cover all activities before, during and after evacuation of families affected by natural and human-induced disasters including armed conflict. Specifically, the guidelines aim to: (1) clarify mandates; (2) guide on resource allocation; (3) provide for designation of responsible offices/persons; and, (4) mandate the implementation of provisions of law. The guidelines will guide local government units (LGUs), field offices of national government agencies, NGOs, private groups and international organizations. . Where specifically stated, this guideline will govern both localized and major disasters. IIL. Definition of Terms 1. Disaster Assistance Family Access Card (DAFAC) - is a card issued to victims of disasters/IDPs indicating the general information of the family head and its members and the assistance provided. 2, Evacuation Center - any site or center hosting evacuees which include but not limited to, schools, covered courts, barangay /community halls, camping areas, collective centers, abandoned houses/buildings, multi-purpose centers and or established “tent cities” . 3. Evacuation Center Coordination- synchronizing the roles and responsibi in the overall humanitarian response, including ensuring adherence to agreed Inter-Agency Standing Committee (IASC); standards and operational guidelines. 4, Evacuees- refers to “persons who have involuntarily moved from their places of origin as a result of war, armed conflict, generalized situation of violence, violation of human rights and natural disasters to a safer ground within the national territory, hence, the change in environment and a need to adjust thereto” and anj-other residing within an evacuation center and other sites hosting those affected by displacement. 5. Evacuation Center Management-is a mechanism through which relief assistance and other humanitarian initiatives can be coordinated to ensure efficient delivery of services to the affected population.

Evacuation Cencer Manager - is a person who exercises leadership over the center and manages its activities and supervises the rest of the members of the management team, 7. Non-Food Items (NFls)-are relief goods such as blankets, mats, mosquito nets, Water containers/jugs kitchen wares, hygiene kits, etc. provided to disaster victims. 8, Preparation for Evacuation - this phase covers minimum disaster preparedness activities related to the preparation and management of evacuation centers as well as guidance to LGU officials in planning and execution of movement of affected population 9. Termination of Evacuation - this is the last phase of the evacuation center management cycle that entails the identification of solutions to end displacement leading to the voluntary movement of evacuees out of the centers and into a more permanent living conditions. This process should only begin once the local government has finalized return, reintegration and resettlement plans for the affected population. In order to ensure the efficiency of the termination of evacuation process, itis important that this phase be considered and planned for even at the pre-ewacuation stage. 10, Transitional Sites - are sites established to temporarily host families facing displacement for more than a month and normally walting for permanent relocation. Families are usually transferred from evacuation centers to these sites. Transitional sites host families in tents, bunkhouses or alternative wansitional sites. 11.

The most appropriate design is dependent on the space constraints, soil geology, available water, commitment to maintenance, local sanitation practices and resources available, The Sphere Standards have key indicators which have a best possible scenario of 20 people per toilet facility. However, this is difficult to achieve because of resources, space and other considerations. While determining the numbers to be installed, the EC management team and concerned agency should observe to see if open defecation is occurring, check to see that existing facilities are functional and being used, and if there are queues forming as people wait to use the facilities. Often people only use EC's as a place to sleep and return home during the day using their own facilities Based on these observations numbers should be increased until the key indicator is met, however if people are using the toilets and there is no signs of open defecation or long queues then there may be sufficient facilities. a.

Water Sanitation and Hygiene The following table outlines the recommended toilet type based on situation and the agreed WASH Cluster latrine ratios. These ratios are based on the observation that populations are mobile throughout the day, and utilising facilities outside the ECs and transit sites. Regular monitoring of CHO Sanitary Inspectors on the practice of open defecation and queuingat peak times is to be done. If either is found an issue ratio will be decreased. ‘The maximum number of users per toilet, shower, handwashing station and solid waste bin in evacuation centres and homebased areas in affected areas must not exceed: | Toilet Type Latrine | Shower | Handwashing | Solid Ratios | Ratio School EC | Permanent Septic to | 1:50 1:100 1:10 te meet School but —_ within requirements, 10m of toilet. supplemented by portalets + use of existing facilities with | ____| regutar desludging ECOther | Semi-Permanent Septic 150 | 1100 [1:10 toilets | 1-10 Hit supplemented by but —_ within | ‘portalets. + use of 10m of toilet. existing facilities with | regular desludging J Temporary |Portalets / Semi | 1:55 | nil Group Learning | Permanent WS Pit! / | students Handwashing Spaces Urinals + Use of School Facilities min | latrines with regular 15 taps. { desludging Tented | Semi-Permanent 180 [140 toilets | 1:10 HH Transit Site | Pit! / Portalets but within | Rural | 10m of toilet.

Until the minimum indicators are met, the priority should be equitable access to an adequate quantity of water even if of intermediate quality e. The quantities of water needed may vary according to the climate, the sanitation facilities available, people practices, and the food they cook, among others, 4.4.2, Basic Survival Water Needs Water intake 25-3 liters per day | Depends on the (drinking and climate and food individual physiology Basic hygiene bliters per day | Depends on social | practices nd cultural norms | Basic cooking 3-6liters perday | Depends on food needs | type, social as well as cultural norms [Total basic water | 75-15 liters per day | needs 4.4.3, Minimum Water Demand per day (Prolonged Period) Use Minimum Demand ] _ liters/person/day) Drinking 2 liters Food prenaration and liters cooking | - Bathing __ 15 liters Laundry 15 liters [ Sanitation and Hygiene 10 liters Total S2 liters ‘© The maximum distance from the users to the nearest water point is 500 meters * Queuing time at a water source is no more than 15 minutes ‘* Ittakes no more than three minutes to fill a 20- liter container * The number of people per source depends on the yield and availability of water at each source 4.5. Containment (within WASH) Page 20451 453. 454. 455. Faeces, Urine and contaminated water must be contained in such a way so as to prevent: a. Contamination of water supplies (leaching surfaces should be 1.5 m above water table, more than 25m from ground water source) b. Prevent faeces and contaminated liquid from being spread over the ground or in fields either through flooding and/or vermin spreading the faeces (containment tanks, septic tanks) © Flies from contact with contained materials and then contaminating food or eating surfaces (water seal bowls, lids, screened vent pipes). Fly spraying (deltamethrine) is only to be carried out by professionally trained staff using protective clothing and in event of diarrheal outbreak. If water used for anal cleansing and/or flushing, the containment should be designed such that water has sufficient retention time to reduce entrained solids before it is leached into the ground (above the water table) or fed into storm water drains. Sizing of containment/septic tanks etc. is dependent on the number of users, soil type and ability to remove and dispose of sludge. Containment Pits should be designed to only require desludging one time per year. Ifsludge removal is part of the design then access is required for vehicles etc so that it can be safely removed. Construction should use local materials and designed so it is easy to maintain cleanliness, . Latrine slab should be smooth and with a slope draining to the drop hole. Agencies should consider of latrines for men required. stalling urinals for men to reduce the number 4.6. Sanitation and Hygiene 46.1. 4.6.2. 463. Water or other anal cleansing materials must be readily available. For Water Seal toilets should only be constructed if there is sufficient water available for flushing within the immediate proximity of the facility (water point within e.g. 50m) Hand washing facilities must be designed into or nearby the facility (maximum distance 10m from the facility) Implementing agency is responsible for hygiene promotion, training and strengthening local organizations to maintain and clean the facility. 4.7. Superstructure considerations 47.1 472. 473. ‘Access to the facility must account for all sectors, women, children, elderly and disabled. Latrines for disabled (1 in 10) should include design features (rails, ramps, seats) that enable safe access and defecation in safety and privacy according to age, gender, and disability, with a minimum of 1 disabled toilet per site. Provision must be made for the hygienic collection and disposal of children’s faeces. Cultural considerations must be considered in design. Gender Separation and signposting of cubicles is required. Page 214.7.4. Privacy for users is a primary concern and should be guaranteed. (eg door should be lockable from inside and latrines should be lit at night in camps.) 4.7.5. Superstructure must be resistant to normal rain and wind conditions to protect users 48, Hygiene Promotion 4.8.1, The key to reducing the public health risk is ensuring that the toilets are used and used correctly. Hygiene promotion programs, that explain the reasons for using toilets vs. open defecation and changing behaviours (ie. hand washing, cleaning of plates and cutlery, protection of food from flies etc.) are needed so that the evacuees will use the facilities and ultimately Feduce the public health risks. 48.2. Implementation of the facilities depends on good hygiene promotion strategy that should be sustained by the EC WASH committee and Barangay Health Workers (BHWs) with guidance from agencies and City Health Office. The objective is to eliminate the open defecation practices and change risky behaviours. 4.9, Maintenance of WASH facilities 4.9.1. Maintain sufficient water and anal cleansing materials as well as soap and water for hand washing 4.9.2. Cleaning of facility so that it does not smell or get muddy 4.9.3. Maintain tocks so that privacy is guaranteed, monitor the conditions of walling and doors to make sure peepholes are not being made 4.9.4, Each woman's block must have a clearly marked receptacle for disposal of baby diapers and sanitary napkins 4.9.5. Ensure that access is safe, ie. lights at nights, clean and safe pathways etc. 4.9.6. Agencies installing latrines are responsible for ongoing maintenance for a 3-4 month period, after which time they should ensure adequate maintenance systems are in place. This includes decommissioning if it's within the 3-4 month period. 4.10. Dislodging 4.10.1.Faeces over time will decompose. However they will still retain some volume and eventually any containment system will fill up and either the facility is sealed up and closed or the containment vessel is emptied. 4.10.2.In this setting, the large number of users in a short time will fill these containers much quicker. In addition to this, when using water seal toilets, the amount of water used for flushing cannot be leached into the ground quick enough or passes through the system quickly and is not clean enough for storm water drains. In both cases the sludge and black water needs to be removed and treated on a regular basis. 4.10.3. Different designs: a. Urinary Diversion Toilets “In this design, the faeces are purposely collected, along with the separated urine and processed into fertilizer. This will follow — Page 22established processes, however in the emergency situation the collection and disposal of these materials must be done safely and timely so as to reduce the possibility of exposure to the displaced residents. In these areas there are large proportions of children so extra care must be taken with the storage and disposal of these materials b. Portalets, Pit Latrines and Septic Tanks -These can be manually emptied or emptied by pumps into tanks or barrels for removal from site. Note that during removal the workers need to protect themselves and all spills need to be cleaned and disinfécted. The transportation vessels must be sealed, 4.10.4, This sludge can be treated in several ways: a. Emptying into existing sewage treatment plants. b. Lime Stabilization 4.11. Sewage Disposal 4.11.1. Environmental contamination or spillage from trucking of excreta must be prevented. Final disposal of excreta must prevent exposure of the general population to health risks. Organizations must only use final disposal sites as designated by Department of Health 4.11.2.Workers involved in the management, emptying, transport, treatment or disposal of excreta must be provided with protective clothing, tools and health and safety advice. 4.11.3, Disposal Site a. With the influx of portalets which require regularly scheduled emptying, along with school septic tanks that are now full, a Lime Stabilization Area is required. = Atthe landfill 2 pits will be dug (4m x 3m x1.5m deep). - These will be lined with layers of tarpaulin and plastic to reduce seepage of untreated waste into the ground, - The-sewage will be emptied into a pit and mixed with hydrated lime (5kg/1000liters) - The PH will be monitored. Target PH is 12 as this will kill all of the pathogens. More Lime will be added if needed = Once the first pit is full the second pit will be started. The first pit will then be emptied of the disinfected sludge and spread over the landfill as cover. b. This will require: - Supply and storage of hydrated lime and other equipment = Scheduling of emptying of septic tanks and portalets, including coordination with pumping company, landfill for access and the camp management to make sure that the truck has access + Staffing (cash for work for IDPs) © Trained to mixin lime © Measure the PH © Will need protective clothing © Will be excavating the full pit and spreading over the landfill © Inventory of lime, gas and managing the process ~ Pump and hose for dewatering of processed sludge Page 23,~ Gas for the pump 4.12. Solid Waste Management 4.12.1. Agencies working in the sites will provide rubbish bins at a ratio of 1 bin per 10 households. A central Collection receptacle should be established in the designated areas to facilitate emptying by the LGU (and associated contractors) on a daily basis. LGU contact person should be contacted directly if solid waste removal is insufficient. 4.12.2. Agencies can augment LGU in the collection system if the need warrant it. 4.13. Vermin Control Program 4.13.1. The Barangay LGU will take care of its own area to conduct spraying, fumigation, fogging if necessary to control vector borne diseases with the assistance and support from the DOH and agencies working in the sites. The DOH-CHDNM will also distribute treated mosquito nets to all affected areas neecng its assistance. 4.14. Health 4.14.1, Minimum Services Package for Health a. Clinical - Consultations/treatment - Emergency transport = Hospital care b.

Psychosocial support (PSS) services for parents, male involvement should be provided by trained PSS personnel 4.15.3.Provision of psycho-social intervention is necessary to enable children victims of disasters maintain a friendly outward social disposition free from feeling of animosities and revenge. This will prevent them from alienation with other children when they will be integrated to their respective communities. 4.15.4.The children will be provided with developmental and social activities, eg. Plays, group sessions, counselling and the like to be able to help them Page 24recover from trauma and bring them back to their normal psychosocial functionirig. 4.15.5. Promote the IASC - MHPSS Guidelines and its key messages to ensure that there is appropriate action to address the social risk factors affecting mental health and psychosocial well-being of IDPs and support groups. (refer to IASC - MHPSS guidelines) 4.15.6.Be guided that essential clinical psychological and psychiatric interventions need to be made available for specific, urgent problems. These latter interventions should only be implemented under the leadership of mental health professionals, who tend to work in the health sector. 4.15.7.Including psychosocial consideration in the protection response will protect the dignity of survivors and enhance the overall protection respons 4.15.8. Minimum package for MHPSS in the evacuation center following the MHPSS intervention pyramid for mental health and psychosocial support in emergencies. a) Level 1- any service geared towards addressing the acute needs of the general population in a disaster such as the following : psychological first aid, provision of basic needs and services, or coordination with concerned agencies on such, disaster ori@ntation briefing b) Level 2 - any service addressed to vulnerable groups to provide ‘community and family support and help restore support systems, eg, play sessions, provision of child-friendly spaces, formation of support groups, facilitation of ceremonies and rituals,etc. ©) Level 3 - focused services aimed at managing high risk cases to prevent and reduce risks of mental health cases and their consequences , e.g. psychosocial processing (PSP) or debriefing, counselling etc. d) Level 4 - specialized services for MHPSS cases, e.g. treatment by specialists, management in mental health facilities, provision of psychotropic medications. 4.15.9, Proper coordination mechanisms in the provision of MHPSS services must be established among different agencies and partners especially among those with key mandates: a). DOH: leading MHPSS, health personnel, responders, LCEs b),DSWD- affected people in evacuation centers especially in assessment and_ provision of services, in coordination with other agen ¢). DepEd- affected school children d). PRC- affected people in the community 4.15.10, Screening ox possible high risk cases must made through the use of the Self Reporting Questionnaire (SRQ) to be facilitated by the evacuation center ‘manager with orientation from the DOH 4.15.11, Referral system for vulnerable groups and high-risk cases must be established in coordination with the DOH for proper referral, management and treatment of cases in identified facilities. 4.15.12. Periodic assessment of MHPSS needs must be done to document cases and issues and to serve as inputs for planning SS Page 254.18.13, Networking and cluster coordination activities must be regularly attended to discuss operational plans and issues. 4.15.14, Reporting of MHPSS services rendered should be done and reports to be shared with other agencies for proper coordination of activities, documentation of services and for planning purposes 4.16. Education 4.16.1. Assignment of areas as Child Friendly Spaces (CFS) or Temporary Learning Spaces (TLS) should be ensured in each evacuation center. 4.16.2.
