1 Situation report issued by NDMO Vanuatu This report covers the period from 10 March 2015 Highlights Tropical Cyclone Pam Cat 4 enters Vanuatu territorial waters on the afternoon of 12 March 2013, with its centre, 230 km east of Torba Province. The National Emergency Operation Centre (NEOC) and five Provincial Emergency Operational Centres have now been activated 262,000 people are now estimated to be at risk from the impact of Severe Tropical Cyclone Pam Cat 4. Six evacuation centres have been opened in Torba and Penama with 431 evacuees to date. Action has been taken to assist the relocation of communities from vulnerable areas around Efate. 1.0 Situation Overview The Vanuatu Met Services maintains a Cyclone Warning for Torba, Sanma, Penama, Malampa and Shefa Provinces with a Cyclone Advisory in place for the rest of the country.

Evacuation Centre lists to be distributed in the afternoon of 12 March NDMO is anticipating that the evacuation centres will start receiving displaced people on 13 March 2015 morning.

Advice for food crop, cash crop and livestock farmers has been provided to Provincial Agriculture Officers and NGOs (in Bislama) for preparedness activities. A crop calendar has been included, so stakeholders are aware of which crops will be ready for early harvest during preparedness activities. This has also been shared with NDMO for inclusion in radio messaging. The messages were played on FM 104 on Tanna on Wednesday and will also be broadcast on Thursday morning. The Agriculture Officer on Tanna has arranged a gathering of all stakeholders to discuss mitigation plans for farmers. The Acting Agriculture Officer in Malampa is meeting with the provincial authority on Lakatora Thursday to commence preparedness actions for farmers. GIZ have begun contacting their 350 volunteers to find out who can assist the cluster during cyclone response World Animal Protection has advised they have staff arriving in Vanuatu early next week (Tuesday). 4.0 WASH The cluster met on Tuesday, 10 March and has: confirmed their NFI list. confirmed contact lists.
4 Vanuatu NDMO, Cyclone Pam Situation Report No. 2 4 uploaded Rapid Assessment forms to mobile phones. They looked at the lessons learned from TC Lusi and have noted that the delay before data collection commenced was too long. Constraints: One challenge identified is the lack of human resources for response in some provinces. WASH to send a copy of NFI list to Gender and Protection Cluster to provide recommendations regarding dignity kits 5.0 Gender and Protection The Cluster met Wednesday morning and has: Revised the assessment format and translated forms into Bislama. Discussed materials that can be taken on assessment including IEC and dignity items. Identified who from the cluster could be deployed. 6.0 Logistics 6.1 Water Transport Port Authority will be closed from midday today, 12 March 2015, therefore all port services are now closed until further notice. There are no tourist boats or cruise ships in the area, all planned visits were cancelled yesterday, 11 March Most boats will move around to Havana Bay, which is a very well protected harbour and safe from most bad sea conditions. Maritime Police Tokuro sailed at 9.30am for Havana Bay and will remain there until the all clear is given. There will be a 17-person crew on-board throughout the emergency period on standby. Tokuro has supplies and fuel for 4 days only, it will need to be re-supplied in the case of response. 6.2 Air Transport Logistics are now verifying information related to all Vanuatu airports. At this stage, the last flight out from the Port Vila airport for Air Vanuatu is at 17:00 on 12 March, to Noumea. Logistics are awaiting confirmation on official airport closures and 1 Total number of helicopters currently on standby to assist with response phase.
5 Vanuatu NDMO, Cyclone Pam Situation Report No. 2 5 procedures for re-opening. The EOC logistics desk is calling all Air Vanuatu agents on the outer islands to determine airport closures in Vanuatu. 6.3 Customs & Quarantine Customs and Quarantine Departments representatives participated in the Disaster Committee Meeting held at NDMO on 12 March 2015, which was chaired by the NDMO Acting Director. NDMO to send a letter to Customs and Quarantine Departments to activate their support within the EOC and to determine a focal point for Line departments support during the response. 6.4 Provincial-level Logistics NEOC Planning and Intelligence teams are working closely with Provincial Disaster Offices and Area Secretary's to establish the logistics capacity of the outer islands. The main shortfall in this information is the lack of detail, which include things like capacity and size of vehicles. At this stage, reporting has indicated that vehicles are available to move people to evacuation centres. Logistics NEOC Team are seeking more detailed information. 6.5 Pre-positioned Non-Food-Items (NFIs) An updated list of NFI has been distributed by VHT to humanitarian and Government partners on 12 March NDMO is advocating for early requests to donors to replenish stocks that are used in this response. Logistics Cluster is informing that there are nowhere near enough stocks to support even a small scale Category 2 or 3 cyclone. It should be anticipated that significant shortfalls should occur in the ability of agencies to provide essential equipment and facilities in most areas affected by the cyclone. One specific concern is the small number of shelter kits and tarpaulins, which will be a priority considering there is a possibility of a second cyclone passing through in a short window after Cyclone Pam passes. Small numbers of all other essential NFI is also a concern. NEOC Logistics Team obtained lists of locally available commercial stocks (Port Vila suppliers), however even those stocks are critically low when considering the potential for a large-scale emergency. List of assets and logistics resources is being continually updated, including list of commercial assets and providers. 6.6 Aerial Surveillance Planning NDMO will be working with Vanuatu Police Force officer stationed within the
6 Vanuatu NDMO, Cyclone Pam Situation Report No. 2 6 JPOC, to develop a comprehensive aerial surveillance plan. The plan is expected to cover most of Vanuatu's 83 islands and will be quite detailed. JPOC has considerable experience in this area. NDMO is likely to request assistance from FRANZ partners in the form of surveillance aircraft in the next few days. Aerial Surveillance is likely to take place as soon as it will be safe. NDMO to facilitate the process of selecting Cluster representatives to participate in the mission. 6.7 Constraints: Aviation assets may be significantly reduced in the event of a severe cyclone, which will require additional assets to be resourced regionally and from FRANZ partners. There is expected to be a significant gap between need and resources immediately following any category of cyclone, we are preparing to request support regionally from donors. 7.0 Shelter Regional Shelter Cluster. IFRC is on standby to provide shelter sector coordination assistance based on need and request from Vanuatu Government. 8.0 Health Health cluster met for the second time to activate its response to prepare towards the cyclone. The members include MOH as Cluster Lead and World Health Organization as co-chair of the cluster. The meeting heard updates from various sectors of health in preparation towards the cyclone and plans ahead for further preparation. The following represent the outcomes of the meeting: The meeting heard that all managers of health facilities have been informed to prepare all health facilities and keep all assets of health safe. This also includes safekeeping of drugs and enough stock. Minor preparation at the National Health Office includes having broken louvers replaced, plastic bags handed out to all offices to cover computers and other office documents safe. There were standby generators for VCH & EPI for cold chain system. VCH presented full details of their emergency operational plan on what has been done and what to be done ahead.

Any westward divergence could bring the eye-wall of the storm over or dangerously close to the islands particularly the easternmost islands of Futuna and Aneityum. The current forecast track has Cyclone Pam passing 50 km east of Futuna and about 100 km east of Aneityum. Thus, all islands in Tafea should plan for experiencing hurricane-force winds.
