DIDP PARTICIPATES IN HAZARD MAPPING MAPSHOP IN TAGAYTAY By Noel E. Dacanay Integrating Disaster Risk Reduction and Climate Change Adaptation (DRR-CCA) in Local Development Planning and Decision Making Processes is a project of the National Economic Development Authority (NEDA) in partnership with the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and the Australian Agency for International Development (AusAID). The project aims to mainstream the integrated concerns of disaster risk reduction and climate change adaptation into the Provincial Development and Physical Framework Plans (PDPFP). One of its activities is the capability building on Geographic Information System (GIS) application for DRR-CCA Hazard Mapping. The 3rd batch of the Hazard Mapping Workshop was held on June 5-11, 2011 at Taal Vista Hotel, Tagaytay City, participated by provincial LGUs, and regional personnel from the Mines and Geosciences Bureau (MGB) and NEDA all over the country. Participants from Region XI were Miguel S. Herrera III and Engr. Orville Dipaling of NEDA XI, Engr. Ingrid Fontanella of Davao Del Norte, Caroline Cossid of Davao del Sur, Kenny Omambat of MGB XI, and Noel Dacanay of DIDP PMO. The objective of the Mapshop is for the provinces to complete and digitize all hazard maps needed in preparing their DRR-CCA enhanced PDPFP. Five (5) tutors from the University of the Philippines - Training Center for Advanced Geodesy and Photogrammetry (UP-TCAGP) were present to assist the participants in preparing and digitizing their maps, supervised by Reynaldo Punongbayan Jr. of the Regional Development Coordination Staff of NEDA (NEDA RDCS). Immediately after the arrival and checkin of the participants at the hotel on June 5, a review on Geographic Information System (GIS) was conducted. The following day, the Mapshop proper commenced after the Preliminaries and Context Setting, generating scenario maps using Rapid Earthquake Damage Assessment Software (REDAS). Developed by DOST4 PHIVOLCS, REDAS can be used to simulate various earthquake scenarios to generate ground shaking, liquefaction and earthquake-induced landslide hazard maps in a format which can be further processed using GIS. It also has the capabilities to provide a historical seismicity of any given area within the Philippines and the indicative location of fault zones. DIDP GIS Head Noel Dacanay with Engr. Dipaling of NEDA during the mapshop. The participants were able to determine the fault lines and trenches near their province, gather historical seismicity within a 100-200 km radius, and select the highest intensity and depth occurring in a fault or trench. With this, they created a scenario using REDAS by choosing a given fault and locating the epicenter (the participants will record the coordinates of the epicenter they chose for the documentation). The scenario was generated using the historical seismicity as parameters of the intensity and the depth as well as the azimuth of the fault line. The participants will generate a maximum of five scenarios. The facilitator/s also taught them to convert raster files (from REDAS) to vector files (shape file) using ArcGIS 9.3 and reclassify the result to visualize the map and make it more presentable and easier to understand. The participants also did the documentation of the result scenarios, and were taught about geo-referencing and digitization of other raster disaster maps like tsunami, flood prone, raininduced landslide, as well as Mapping standards and presentation formats of the outputs. GROUNDWATER... From page 1 the expected limits but it was recommended to the BAWASA officers in the pilot sites to observe and limit the amount of water extraction to the original quantity design to maintain the sustainability of the groundwater source. There was also a need to clean-up the wells in Brgy. Waan, Davao City to prevent damage to the pump. April - June 2011 Contents: On the other hand, resistivity surveys for the evaluation of groundwater sources were conducted in Brgy. Cacao in Panabo City and Brgy. Licup and Brgy. Cawag in Island Garden City of Samal in May to June 2011. Two candidate sites in each barangay were tested, and using the test results, a possible drilling location was selected. Water samples from sources that are nearest to the survey sites were also collected to evaluate the water quality around the area of the selected drilling points. On the last week of June 2011, the drilling in Brgy. Cacao were monitored and drilling samples were collected and evaluated to validate the survey results. These data can also be used as reference for future surveys. The three surveys were commissioned by the LGU of Davao del Norte. Personnel from the Engineering and Planning Offices of Panabo City, Island Garden City of Samal, and Provincial Government of Davao del Norte were present to participate in the survey as part of the continuing technical transfer on groundwater development. **** The Davao Integrated Development Program is an LGU - led initiative of the provinces of Davao del Norte, Davao del Sur, Compostela Valley and Davao Oriental, and the cities of Davao, Tagum, Panabo, Island Garden City of Samal, Digos and Mati.

Nacpil The DIDP-PMO attended the Philippines Cocoa Investment and Development Workshop on April 28-29, 2011 at Waterfront Insular Hotel, Davao City. This event was organized by the Agricultural Cooperative Development International and Volunteers in Overseas Cooperative Assistance (ACDI/VOCA) and drew over a hundred farmers, traders, growers, cooperative managers, foreign buyers, researchers, city officials and foreign commodity. United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Agricultural Counselor Philip Shull and Philippine Department of Agriculture Undersecretary Joel Rudinas were the keynote speakers. In his message, Dir. Shull said that the local cacao industry cannot move forward fast enough unless more private investors both from overseas and this country pour more investments in this emerging industry. He stressed that the strongest key to fast-tracking and sustaining the development of the Philippines cacao industry is “private investments” that will provide the needed capital for putting up massive cacao nurseries, land development, Con’t ...Cacao on page 2 Resistivity survey in Island Garden City of Samal Groundwater Development activities for the 2nd quarter of the year consist of monitoring the production wells of the Local Governance and Rural Empowerment Project (LGREP) pilot sites and resistivity surveys for groundwater evaluation in Panabo City and Island Garden City of Samal. Site visits to the LGREP pilot projects were conducted between the 2nd and 3rd weeks of April 2011 as part of the regular project monitoring activity with the Small Water Supply (SWS) and Community Organizing (CO) groups. During these visits, the water levels of the well sources were taken, and water samples were collected and tested, using the equipments that were donated by JICA under LGREP.

The Philippines has remained one of the world's largest markets for US-made food and beverages and he wants to see this country become a key global supplier of fermented cacao beans, the raw materials used in making world-class chocolates like Hershey's, M&M, etc. To help develop the Philippine cacao industry, USDA funds are used to support the activities of ACDI-VOCA, a global non-profit organization that helps farmers' cooperatives worldwide in producing high-value agricultural crops. The workshop culminated with the establishment of a new association of Mindanao-based cocoa stakeholders, the Philippine Cocoa Industry Association, and a cocoa study tour for the participants. Cacao is highly prized because of its beans which are processed into cocoa products such as butter, powder, paste/liquor and chocolate confectionery. In the Philippines, most of the beans produced by small holders are mostly made into tablea, a native chocolate confection. Cocoa powder and cocoa butter are widely used in food products; cocoa butter is also used as a base for moisturizers, cosmetics, and suppositories. Cocoa seed and cocoa seed coat are used to treat intestinal conditions; diarrhea; liver, bladder and renal disease; and diabetes. The Department of Agriculture XI (DA XI) is pushing the establishment of the Davao Region as a coffee and cacao production area. Under DA's seeds distribution program, cacao and coffee seedlings are included as choice planting materials plus technical assistance and technologies. The agency is also expanding cacao and coffee farms in Davao City and the provinces of Compostela Valley and Davao del Norte. The Upland Farming Model Villages Project under the Integrated Food Security Program of the DIDP supports the establishment of cacao plantations in Brgy. Sergio Osmeña, Gov. Generoso; Brgy. Don Mariano Marcos, Lupon; Brgy. New Calape, Montevista; Brgy. San Miguel, San Isidro (Davao del Norte); Brgy. Cogon, Island Garden City of Samal; and, Brgy. Marilog, Davao City. 2 FMR...
