MANILA, Philippines — State volcanologists raised Wednesday the status of Bulusan Volcano to Alert Level 1, which indicates it is currently in a state of “low-level unrest.”

 

The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology raised the alert status of Bulusan a few days after it placed Mayon Volcano in Albay under Alert Level 2 after exhibiting “increasing unrest.”

 

Phivolcs reminded local government units and individuals that entry into the four-kilometer radius Permanent Danger Zone should be strictly prohibited.
