In connection with the recent occurrences of earthquakes across the country, the Central Bicol State University of Agriculture conducted its fourth quarter earthquake drill on December 4, 2023, as a mitigative response to future earthquake occurrences.
Led by the Director of the University Resiliency Center, Ms. Sheryl San Andres, the earthquake drill was conducted within the Main Campus, Veterinary Medicine, and Animal Science buildings. At exactly 8:30 A.M. the earthquake alarms rang, signaling the commencement of the drill. Administrators, faculties of the different colleges, staff, and students, observed duck, cover, and hold in the first alarm. After a few moments, the participants proceeded to their respective evacuation areas. Emergency response teams then checked the rooms for injuries and provided first aid.
This preventive measure instills in the university stakeholders the importance of disaster preparedness to prevent harm to life. | ๐๐ช๐ต๐ฉ ๐ฑ๐ฉ๐ฐ๐ต๐ฐ๐ด ๐ง๐ณ๐ฐ๐ฎ ๐๐ด. ๐๐ญ๐บ๐ด๐ด๐ข ๐๐ข๐บ๐ฆ ๐๐ณ๐ถ๐ด๐ข๐ด ๐ข๐ฏ๐ฅ ๐๐ณ. ๐๐ฆ๐ฏ๐ฅ๐ณ๐ช๐ค๐ฌ ๐๐ฐ๐ฅ๐ณ๐ช๐จ๐ถ๐ฆ๐ป, ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ฉ๐ฐ๐ต๐ฐ๐จ๐ณ๐ข๐ฑ๐ฉ๐ฆ๐ณ๐ด
