 * Predict when next eruption may occur:**

There were only earthquakes after the eruption of Mt Taal.
 * Other event associated with the last eruption (earthquakes, floods,lahars etc):**

The only major hazards are when it erupts, they could get burnt from the ash falling from the sky.
 * Major hazards to humans in the vicinity of this volcano:**

(One paragraph minimum) To the people living around Mt Taal. If the volcano was to erupt, evacuate the city to get out harms way. The volcano has not erupted since1977, it is due for another eruption at any time, we do not know exactly when it will blow. It may be the smallest active volcano on the face of the earth, but don't underestimate the punch it packs. In 1911 it killed almost 1500 people, do not let this happen again and when an evacuation notice has been raised, get out of the area as fast as possible.
 * Summary**: You are the head of the USGS. What recommendations would you make to minimize the risk to the population?
