SITUATION/COMMENTS
WAF water supply was cut off since TC Winston on 16Feb2016 and has not been
reconnected. However, WAF water trucks have started supplying today 24Feb2016
morning. Villagers are managing with the limited water containers and/or buckets
remaining to cart drinking water for their families. Household items, including plastic
containers were destroyed as this becomes a need for families.
Villages are still managing with left over root crops from their farms that could sustain
families over the next few days. Otherwise, villagers have begun to shop for groceries
at the Shiu Raj Supermarket in Rakiraki town which recently opened on 23Feb2016
two days after the devastation of cyclone Winston.
Families have begun collecting firewood off broken branches and loose timber.
Otherwise, other means of cooking e.g. Kerosene stove and gas burners are used by
families. Families have rationed available food stock they were able to save during
the cyclone and families sharing food at homes not destroyed. Due to the intensity of
TC Winston and its devastation left behind its trail, many families are still struggling to
reconstruct their roof tops back in place.
The village homes in Rakiraki village have all been using Flush Toilets - and with the
inconsistent water supply to most destroyed homes, families are now unable to use
their toilet facilities. Families of Rakiraki Village have resorted to a nearby creek for
convinience. The villagers also use the same creek for washing of clothes. There are a
few households that are situated downstream from this swimming spot and could
pose possible threat to future health issues if they decide to resort to the same water
source.
4
FEA power source is completely destroyed. Broken power lines and poles have been
seriously destroyed in many places and could take months of continuous repair.
Because of no power supply, fuel stations have been crippled that now would cost
generator users and lorry drivers to fill at the known nearest service stations
operational in Korovou Town in Tailevu.
POWER/FUEL
ACCESSIBILITY (e.g. Truck/
Plane/ Boat etc.)
Despite fallen trees and debri in and around the village, villagers are still able to move
around to clear broken branches, roofing iron, glass, metallic objects, wood etc. The
main road access to and from the village has been cleared. Villagers are able to reach
Rakiraki town for groceries shopping.
Our assessors came across victims of high blood pressure, diabetes, asthma, skin
infections, and post traumetic mental stress, body pains, open cuts and muscle pain.
A few leg injuries (2F, 1C M) were treated by the volunteers, mainly caused by
unprotected or bare movement.
HEALTH
There was no report of pilfering in the Village and/or at houses used as evacuation
shelter.
Villagers are working collectively as a family to rebuild one another's houses.

Wailevu Settlement
(Naiserelagi Vlg)
ASSESSOR
DATE
25-Feb16
SITUATION/COMMENTS
The settlement feeds from the 'Navunibitu Catholic Parish' main pipe supply that is
sourced from a water source i.e. 1.5km from the settlement. One of the fibre 2000L
water tank out of the 2 was blown away and the remaining one is still supplying to
the Parish and settlement. Another creek that runs through the settlement is used
only for bathing and washing. The creek is also used by livestock for drinking and
cooling. This poses a threat to water borne diseases and other health issues. There
are other households situated further inland that consume water from a nearby
spring.
The settlement is surviving from the partly destroyed Cassava plantations around the
settlement, this observed to be very quickly rotting away; these plantations is
believed to only supply the settlement over the next 10 days. Other agriculture cash
crop such as banana has been totally destroyed, thus giving the settlement a serious
income challenge.
Families are coping with the abundance firewood source from broken branches in the
area. Pots were saved during the cyclone.
100% of the houses in the settlement were completely destroyed; as such no indoor
toilet facility is hygienically usable. The creek water is clear and is used for washing
and bathing.
The settlement FEA main power supply has been disconnected by broken lines since
the landfall of TC Winston on 20th February 2016 ; there is no anticipation of
reconnection anytime soon.
Settlement is only 1km inland from main Kings Road and is already accessibly by
vehicle. Fallen trees on road has been cleared by locals. There are 7 more houses
further situated inland that cannot be accessed by vehicle due to fallen trees.

An elderly femaile 55yrs is suffering breast cancer and remains inside her partly
destroyed home. Otherwise, there is no serious health issue at the moment 5 days
after TC Winston devastation. It was at this settlement that a 12yr female was
seriously injured and later died, as a result of injuries sustained when her family
home collapsed on her, her mother and father. A 85yrs olderly male is suffering from
diarrhoea, suspected to be caused by consumption of unclean drinking water. Other
families are vulnerable to health issues if they continue to consume water from other
springs. An 80yrs old female was reported to have been rushed to CWMH as a result
of pneumonia. Another adult female was injured in the head by a flying piece of
roofing iron during the landfall of TC Winston, however due to poor accessibility was
rushed 4 days later to the CWMH on 24th February 2016.
HEALTH
There is no security threat to the settlement.
SECURITY
Survivors are generally struggling to rebuild their houses from whatever useful
material they can find. There is despair in the people trying to adopt to a new
beginning TC Winston has devastated in the peoples lives. The post traumatic stress
on the elderly, the sick and parents would have serious repacussions on their health
and future social stability.

SITUATION/COMMENTS
The village water supply is from a spring water source 5km into the mountains that
supplies to 3 reservoir rotar plastic tanks along the line to the village. The main pipe
lines between these reservior tanks were destroyed during the cyclone. Water was
restored 3 days after the cyclone to only undestroyed houses. Villagers revealed that
the taste of water is not the same now. Many families are resorting to green coconuts.
Washing and bathing is still carried out by villagers at a creek running along the village.
Village Cassava plantation was completely destroyed and very quickly rotting. Villagers
have begun supplying cassava to other less fortunate neighbouring villages.
Villagers whose houses were not destroyed are likely to be using gas stove, whereas
weaker houses that were completely destroyed were families cooking using firewook;
these weaker houses are the most affected.
All houses in the village use flush toilet systems. Villagers whose house were not
destroyed have accommodated other families whose houses and toilet structures
were completely destroyed, whilst the affected are slowly rebuilding their lives. Toilet
facilities inside undestroyed homes are now being shared by neighbouring households
too. As a result, there is more congestion of people inside the few spared houses
which poses health risks, disease outbreak and post traumatic stresses.
The village is not anticipating the return of the FEA power supply anytime soon, due to
destroyed power posts and lines in the trail of TC Winston.
The road access into the village is blocked by a concrete FEA line post; however village
is situated along main Kings highway and village can travel freely out of Naiserelagi
village.
There is no health issue at the moment, but may arise after a few weeks. There could
possibly be an outbreak of diarrhoea due to infected water source.
There is no security vulnerability in the village community.
Villagers have continued rebuilding slowly, but need tarpauline in order to safe guard
their household items, especially clothes. At the moment, clothes that belong to those
most affecte and house destroyed are kept in the few evacuation centres in the
village.

Village is supplied drinking water from own source, i.e damn which was disconnected
during the cyclone landfall but is restored and provides clean drinking water for the
village community.
All root crop (cassava) is completely destroyed; its roots have rotted. The village will
have to replant vegetables and root crops to sustain households after its maturity
from 4-12 months. In the time being, villages would have to resort to food supply
from Rakiraki Town shops and help from donor agencies or the private sector. (as
seen today to be supplying ration packs)
WATER SUPPLY
FOOD SUPPLY
Victims are now using firewood to cook as many houses and kitchen were blown
away during the cyclone.
COOKING CAPACITY
The village land is wet and many areas muddy. Toilet structures have been damaged
and the village is at risk of diseases as a result of poor sanitation. Due to the many
toilets destroyed, people would have to share toilet; and as a consequence septic
tanks will fill up much quickly. Families especially children will find it tiring to go to
outdoor taps to clean hands before and after eating. There are many horses, goats,
dogs and chicken uncompounded within the village boundaries, this could lead to
possible CSD outbreak if villages are not educated of health issues.
SANITATION
The village is not anticipating the return of the FEA power supply anytime soon, due
to destroyed power posts and lines in the trail of TC Winston.

OVERALL COPING
Due to the severity of the tropical cyclone, the people need to be constantly reminded
of the need for prevention of disease outbreaks and possible death from negligence.
There is no security threat at the moment.
People are seen to be working together as a familly, although many heads of the
families have fixed their roof tops and built temporary shelters to protect what is left
of the devastation of TC Winston.
Note: Due to the lapse in communication tools these highlighted needs were not reflected quicker, nevertheless these
issues remain the same.
