PHIVOLCS Released List Of Barangays Located Near Earthquake Fault
Phivolcs released the list of barangays in Metro Manila and its nearby provinces that are located near the earthquake fault.
On Tuesday (April 04, 2017), the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (PHIVOLCS)Â released the Valley Fault System (VFS) Atlas, large-scale maps showing the areas near the earthquake fault.
There are 2 segments composing the VFS:
West Valley Fault – Running Through Bulacan, Rizal, Metro Manila, Cavite, and Laguna.
East Valley Fault – Running through Rizal
The volcanology agency has previously warned the impending activity of the West Valley Fault. This fault roughly moves between 400-600 years and the last earthquake in this fault was recorded on 1658 or 357 years ago.
The movement of the West Valley Fault could generate a magnitude 7.2 earthquake, which could kill more than 34, 000 people and could injure around 100, 000 people. While the East Valley Fault could generate a magnitude 6.2 earthquake.
Around P1.8 to P2.3 trillion will the cost of rehabilitation, according to the study conducted by Phivolcs in partnership with the Metro Manila Development Authority, Geosciences Australia, and Japan International Cooperation Agency.
