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
193 - Identify and relocate vulnerable species that have high risk of pest and disease attack to dryer areas
194 - Practice mixed species cropping systems to prevent rapid spread of disease
196 - Introduce biological control measures
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

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
397 - Physically remove diseased or dying trees/plants
398 - Conduct research on specific tree pests and diseases
399 - Accurately identify pest and disease agents
