III. ACTIVATION, DEACTIVATION, AND NON-ACTIVATION OF CONTINGENCY

PLAN

The contingency measures in this document aligns with the NDRRMC Harmonized National
Contingency Plan (HNCP) and the Disaster Risk Reduction – Sendai Framework 2015 - 2030 for
earthquake. This will enable DepEd to have better coordination horizontally, i.e. DepEd with
other NDRRMC agencies, and vertically, i.e. DepEd Central Office down to the schools.

A. Activation
 The activation of DepEd’s Contingency Plan for earthquake is aligned with the
activation of the Harmonized National Contingency Plan. This includes any of the following
triggers:
 Presidential Proclamation to be issued declaring a State of Calamity due to an
earthquake.
 The school shall coordinate with the DRRMS together with the LGU for the ongoing
situation of the school.

 RA 10121, also known as an act strengthening the Philippine Disaster Risk Reduction
and Management System, providing for the National Disaster Risk Reduction and
Management Framework and institutionalizing the National Disaster Risk Reduction
and Management Plan, appropriating funds therefor and for other purposes.

B. Deactivation

The trigger for deactivation of this CP on earthquake will be based on the

declaration of the Secretary, RDs, SDSs and School Heads upon the recommendation of
IATF / National / Regional DRRMC1 and other authorized government agencies.

C. Non-activation

In the event that the HNCP is not activated, the response

mechanisms detailed in this plan can still be relevant for any occurrence of the
said event.
