A recent incident of ashfall and sulfurous odor has impacted several local government units (LGUs) in Negros Occidental, as per a report by the Provincial Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council (PDRRMC). The eruption of Mt. Kanlaon on Monday night triggered these phenomena, affecting residents in at least 14 LGUs across the region.

According to the report, ashfall was observed in six LGUs, while a sulfurous odor permeated eight localities. The affected areas include La Carlota City, the southeastern part of Bago City, La Castellana, Pontevedra, Valladolid, San Enrique, Hinigaran, and Binalbagan, with residents reporting the presence of ashfall and the distinct smell of sulfur since Monday night.

In response to the situation, various local authorities have taken measures to address the needs of affected residents. The City Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council (CDRRMC) of Bacolod City distributed face masks to residents, particularly in the 24 barangays where the sulfurous odor was detected.

Health authorities are closely monitoring residents, especially those with respiratory illnesses, for any health implications caused by the ashfall and volcanic fumes. Evacuation centers have been set up, with families seeking shelter as a precautionary measure.

Mayors of affected cities and municipalities have issued advisories urging residents to take necessary precautions, including the mandatory use of face masks when outdoors. Additionally, residents are advised to stay indoors, ensure proper ventilation, and seek medical attention if experiencing respiratory difficulties or eye irritation.

The Department of Health (DOH) has provided guidelines for protecting against the health risks posed by ashfall and noxious gases. These include closing doors and windows, using wet cloths to cover gaps, proper use of face masks, and maintaining hygiene practices, especially during food preparation.

Health Secretary Teodoro Herbosa has assured the readiness of nearby hospitals to respond to emergencies, with supplies and resources being dispatched to affected areas. Furthermore, Speaker Martin Romualdez has allocated funds for relief efforts, aiming to support affected residents in both Negros Oriental and Negros Occidental.

Through initiatives such as the Ayuda para sa Kapos ang Kita Program (AKAP) and the Tulong Panghanapbuhay sa Ating Disadvantaged/Displaced Workers (TUPAD), financial aid will be provided to mitigate the economic impact of the volcanic eruption on affected communities. These programs aim to assist individuals and families facing hardships due to disruptions in livelihood and employment.

As the situation continues to develop, authorities and relevant agencies remain vigilant in providing assistance and support to those affected by the recent volcanic activity in Negros Occidental.
