The Philippine Coast Guard (PCG) has been placed on heightened alert as it intensifies preparations for the possible impact of Super Typhoon , particularly in the National Capital Region, Northeastern Luzon, Northwestern Luzon, and the Bicol Region.
PCG Commandant, Admiral Ronnie Gil L Gavan PCG, has directed all concerned Coast Guard Districts, Stations, and Sub-Stations to implement preparedness measures and maintain close coordination with local disaster risk reduction and management councils and local government units to safeguard coastal communities and maritime stakeholders.
PCG Acting Spokesperson, Commander Michael John Encina PCG, said the Coast Guard has activated its preparedness and response measures under the Intensified Community Assistance, Awareness, Response, and Enforcement (iCARE) campaign.
Preparations include facilitating the early evacuation of residents in high-risk coastal areas, issuing sea travel advisories, securing ports and other Coast Guard facilities, and prepositioning deployable response groups for immediate dispatch. The PCG Auxiliary has also been mobilized to augment preparedness and response operations.
"The PCG is also intensifying engagements with fisherfolk and coastal community residents to encourage compliance with evacuation directives," Commander Encina said.
The public is advised to monitor official weather bulletins and immediately report maritime emergencies through the nearest Coast Guard unit for appropriate action.
