The area’s water system is defined by the Lawigan River, which serves as the primary border to the west, and a network of several creeks (represented by light blue lines) that flow across the territory from the eastern interior. These water features are mapped alongside the barangay’s boundaries shared with Barangay Tambis 1, Bolodbolod, Sug-angon, and Ayahag. By identifying these natural drainage routes, the map provides essential data for local authorities to manage irrigation and develop effective flood mitigation strategies for the community.

 

ROAD NETWORK MAP

PROTECTION MAP

The Protection Map of Barangay Tambis II outlines a comprehensive environmental management strategy focused on reforestation and the establishment of riparian buffers to protect its natural resources. A significant portion of the central and eastern hilly terrain is designated for tree and mixed crop planting (green diagonal stripes) to improve soil stability and watershed health. Along the western boundary, the plan prioritizes the Lawigan River and local creeks for various riparian interventions, including planting fruit trees, bamboo, and other tree species to prevent bank erosion and protect water quality. By integrating these conservation zones with the existing road network and boundary lines, the map provides a clear spatial roadmap for the barangay’s long-term ecological sustainability and disaster resilience.
