**4.5 Step 5: developing a contingency plan**

After performing steps 3 and 4, the selected two barangays developed a contingency plan by themselves based on the results of steps 1–4. During the plan development, ICHARM provided them with necessary maps explained in the previous sections and several suggestions to barangay members in charge of the plan. **Table 5** is the final contents of their developed plans. Following the message from the barangay leader in the first chapter, the basic information and explanation of risk identification and the contingency plan are presented. In the chapter on risk identification, the inundation maps and chart in **Figure 7** are included, and the impact due to three types of floods discussed in **Table 2** is explained. The chapter

of the contingency plan consists of six parts: an organisation chart, a resource map which shows the locations of the important facilities in the area (**Figure 7**), a list of equipment, a response strategy as a result of step 4 (**Table 3**), a sectoral plan for each section to follow in order to achieve necessary actions listed in step 4 and an annual activity plan.
