55 - Thoroughly inspect all bullock fencing before a cyclone to cut out any living branches on posts (i.e. purao fences)
56 - Avoid corrosive fencing materials (i.e. barb wire)
57 - Allow glycine to grow over barbed wire fences to provide a physical barrier to salt exposure
163 - Utilize appropriate building materials for livestock enclosres that can withstand climtic extremes
367 - Ensure proper drainage: outflow needs direction away from infrastructures and towards a safer place
368 - Check that hand pumps are properly sealed (at top of bore hole) to prevent contamination and back leakage
369 - Fully check the performance of new systems 3 months – 1 yr after construction
370 - Build homes with cement around the base so as to prevent inundation
371 - Build homes that are raised above ground level to prevent household inundation during floods
372 - Build walls and sea walls to prevent storm surge related flooding
373 - Develop health guidelines on consumption and contamination by air pollution and ash
410 - Introduce forest plot or area drainage systems
411 - Plant water tolerant tree species in flood prone areas like coconut, bamboo, purao
412 - Plan or Relocate forestry operations to typically 'dry soil' areas
464 - Relocate Gardens away from the coast
465 - Introduce buffer zones between gardens and low-lying coastal areas
466 - Find and encourage salt tolerant crops
479 - Train bullock to use salt blocks
480 - Allow animals to roam freely on the coast
481 - Allow cows and bullocks to swim in the sea
