Typhoon
Despite being a progressive barangay, there are identified locations vulnerable to storm surge and flash floods due to typhoons. Not to mention other problems like Inadequate flow capacity of various rivers and streams, inadequate capacities of the existing drainage facilities, clogging of the drainage channels due to solid wastes, illegal encroachment of the structures in the drainage channels and Informal settlers living in “houses on stilts.” These problems were identified because the municipality of Kawit, where Barangay Toclong is situated, is located along the 123 kilometers shoreline of Cavite.
Earthquake
Majority of the houses in Barangay Toclong are located in a subdivision. These subdivisions are situated in a hilly type of terrain wherein some residents fear that a major disaster might happen in case of an earthquake. Residents also fear that some areas for mining and quarrying are not properly delineated. Also, another problem that might occur is the presence of Earthquake-Induced Landslides. Occurrence of earthquake-induced landslides is determined largely by local conditions. Many factors, including geologic and hydrologic conditions, topography, climate, weathering and land use, influence the stability of slopes and the characteristics of landslides. Barangay Toclong in Kawit, Cavite is susceptible to this.
