CHAPTER – III

MULTI-HAZARD DISASTER MANAGEMENT PLAN

1. DISASTER MANAGEMENT – WHY IS IT?

Natural Disaster is a part of our earth so we can neither avoid it nor it is possible to prevent natural disasteraltogether. But its effects can be reduced through systematic approach by Disaster Management initiatives. It canbe an effective tool for saving vulnerable human lives and mitigation of human misery.

2. CONCEPT OF DISASTER MANAGEMENT:

Disaster Management

The word disaster is coming from a French word Disaster meaning bad or evil star. However, this is a very narrow

concept of disaster and in our context, any disaster means a situation in which there is a sudden disruption of

normalcy within a society causing wide spread damage to life and property.

Typology of Disaster

A disaster can either natural (Rain, Flood, Cyclone, Storm, Land slide, Earthquake and Volcanoes) or manmade

[War, including biological, Arson, Sabotage, Riots Accident (train, air, ship) industrial accidents, Fires, bomb

explosions, nuclear explosion and ecological disasters].Pre- independence, drought and famines were the biggest

killer in India. The situation change due to a combination of factors like irrigation development, food security

measures, floods, cyclones, droughts, landslides, avalanches and earthquakes are some of the major natural

disaster that repeatedly and increasingly affect the country.

Vulnerability

Vulnerability is defined as the extent to which a community, structure, service or geographic area is likely tobe damaged or disrupted by the impact of particular hazard on account of their nature, construction and proximityto hazardous terrain or a disaster prone area. In 1989, the General Assembly of the United Nations proclaimed thedecades 1999-2000 as the International decade for natural disaster reduction (IDNDR). At the World Conformanceon Natural Disaster Reduction in the city of Yokohoma, Japan in 1994, deep concern was expressed at thecontinuing human suffering and disruption of development due to natural disaster and a “Yokohama Strategy andPlan of Action for a Safe World” was developed. It is not possible to go away from the devastation due to naturalhazards completely. However, destruction from natural hazards can be minimized by the presence of well-functioning warning system, combined with preparedness on the part of the vulnerable communality. DisasterManagement may be seen as a part of good governance.

45

3. BASIC CONCEPTS OF EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT:

The basic concept suggests that the same management strategies can be applied to all emergences. Emergences do

not just appear one day, rather they exist throughout times and have life cycle of occurrence, and hence the

management strategy should match the phases of an emergency in order to mitigate, prepare, respond, and

recovery from its effect. There are four phases in emergency management: Mitigation, Preparedness, Response,

and Recovery. These four phases are visualized as having a circular relationship to each other (Fig.1 Emergency

Management Circle). The activities in one phase may overleap those in the previous one.

4. EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT CYCLE:

Mitigation refers to activities which actually eliminate or reduce the vulnerability or chance of occurrence or the

effects of a disaster. Mitigation phase begins with conducting hazards identification and vulnerability analysis which

are essential to the planning of all other phases.

Hazards identifications and vulnerability analysis is two steps process. First the hazard is identified which has the

potential of affecting the population. Secondly, how people, property and structure will be affected by the

disastrous event.

Preparedness is a state of being ready to react promptly effectively in the event of an emergency. Being prepared

means that a plan of action exists for an emergency so that it is clear as to what to do before the emergency

occurs. Preparedness measures to be undertaken depend upon the analysis of hazard severity and vulnerability,

which is also the basis for deciding mitigation strategy. In some cases, such as flood, hurricane, an early warning

gives several hours to act. However, often no prior warning of an impending emergency such as with earth quakes,

tornados, explosion and major fires is possible. Preparedness for any emergency, especially those, which strike

without notice, requires a plan. It is essential to identify the resources available, and ways to utilize them. It must

also be reasonably certain that the plan will work in an emergency situation.

Response Phase:

The basic five stages of response to any emergency or disaster are–

1. Warning

2. Immediate Public Safety

46

3. Property Security

4. Public Welfare and

5. Restoration

Recovery Phase:

The final phase of disaster management is recovery; both short term and long term efforts. Short term recovery is

the restoration of vital services and facilities to minimum standards of operation and safety. Long term recovery

efforts may continue many years as the society slowly return to the pre-emergency for better conditions.

FIG.1: PHASES OF DISASTER MANAGEMENT CYCLE

5. DISASTER AND ITS CHALLENGES:

Along with perennial floods, Earth quake pose a possible threat, particularly due to the fact that its time,

location and magnitude can’t be accurately predicted. Moreover, entire North East region of India is located in a

seismically active zone (zone-v). The region has been witnessed to several violent earthquakes in the past.

47

Challenges created by disasters particularly by the natural disaster such as flood, cyclones and high intensity

earth quake are –

To rescue and evacuate trapped people.

To provide first Aid to the injured people.

To make care of children, woman and disable people.

To transfer the seriously injured and people needing urgent medical attention to hospitals.

To restore communication network and essential services.

To clear debris, blocking roads and communication network.

To provide shelter and relief to homeless people.

To arrange for food and drinking water to the affected people.

To take immediate measures for disposal of dead bodies and animal carcass as to prevent the outbreak ofepidemics.

To take urgent measures for maintaining law and order.

To take people to safer places in-case of change of course of river due to flood.

It is a fact that natural disasters cannot be avoided and prevented, but only by our sincere efforts we can mitigate

it through advance preparedness. Preparedness means development, rehabilitation, restoration on one side and

mitigation, rescue and relief on other side.

48

CHAPTER – IVFORMULATION AND PREPARATION OF DISTRICT DISASTER

MANAGEMENT PLAN:

The District Disaster Management Plan of Sepahijala, hereafter will be referred to as the plan which is a

Multi Hazard Disaster Management Plan that assists and equips the District Administration to organize its

emergency preparedness for the pre, during and post disaster, so that response and mitigation functions timely

and in an efficient manner within the district and also to extend the necessary support to the State Government.

The District Disaster Management Plan includes the facts and figures that have been collected from various official

and informal sources with a view to meeting the challenges during any natural and man-made disaster.

Collection and classification of data are to be updated twice in May and November every year. The plan has beenprepared with the following viewpoints.

1. Contingency plan is a continuous process.

2. All are not equal in a crisis situation, giving emphasis on special vulnerable groups like economically weaker, sickand ailing, pregnant and lactating mother, old aged etc.

3. During relief measures social auditing ensures transparency.

4. Involvement of women is a must in the entire process.

5. Mitigation plan reflecting need based approaches from the grassroots level.

6. Well defined preparedness and response plan for the entire district.

OBJECTIVE:

The objectives behind the preparation of the District Disaster Management plan are:

1. To mitigate impact of natural and man-made disasters

2. through preparedness at District level, Blocks, Gram Panchayat and Village level.

3. To provide effective support and resources to all the concerned individuals, groups and departments duringdisasters.

4. To assist the line department, Block administration, communities in developing compatible skills for disastermanagement.

49

5. To disseminate factual information in timely, accurate and tactful manner while maintaining necessaryconfidentiality.

5. To develop immediate and long term support plans for vulnerable people in/during disaster.

6. To create awareness among the people about hazard occurrences and increase their participation and

preparedness, prevention, development, relief, rehabilitation and reconstruction process.

7. To have response system in place, to face any eventuality.

NECESSITY OF THE PLAN:

The plan establishes an administrative structure for a systematic, coordinated and effective

Response at the District level.

The purpose of the plan is to-

Define a system of coordination at the district level.

Identify all the responder agencies at the district level, and assign functional responsibilities to each ofthem.

Establishment of a central facility in the district, which enables all the responder’s agencies to interact andcoordinate their efforts.

Suggest hazard specific preparedness, response and mitigation measures.

Plan resource requirements and coordinate with state government for requisitioning more resources.

Provide an inventory of resources, key facilities and addresses for deployment and assistance towardspreparedness and mitigation.

Responding to an urgent call of society to paradigm change from the traditional practice of giving relief

towards reducing the risk of disaster, the Govt. is emphasizing that at all level; primary role of Administration

should be the preparedness, mitigation, reduction and response to a disaster based on community participation.

Disasters are events that come unannounced and the main duty of District Administration then becomes the

proper management of resources, be it material, physical or manpower. As per the Government directions, in the

state, every district must have a District Disaster Management Plan. Accordingly, a detailed District

Disaster Management Plan has been prepared for the District Sepahijala.

50

While preparing this document, an effort has been made to: -

1. Identify probable Disaster/Disaster situations in this District and Nodal Officers for each such situation havebeen deputed. The duties of all the members of District Disaster Management Committee have been clearlydefined.

2. Evolve a Standard Operative Procedure of a general nature keeping in view the common requirements ofvarious Disaster situations with special emphasis on Control Room operation and seeking help from outsidethe district.

3. Touch upon in detail the inventory of resources at the disposal of the Administration and theknowledge of experts for handling the situation.

4. Project a detailed individual Disaster management plan for handling important Disaster/Disastersituations.

Our main aim is to reduce vulnerability and also to minimize the destruction caused by all of these typesof Disaster, be it natural or manmade. This is not an easy task and in order to achieve this target and also keepingin view the population and the of multiplicity of the hazards and Disaster, which can occur, we are of firmopinion that the Government cannot resolve this issue and the people are not prepared to pay the price interms of massive casualties and economic losses, the task, though difficult but is achievable.

Introduction to mitigation mode.

Disaster threatens sustainable economic development worldwide. In the past twenty years,earthquakes, floods, tropical storms, droughts and other calamites have killed millions of people, inflictedinjury, disease and caused homelessness and misery to around one billion others in the world. These have causeddamage to infrastructure worth millions of rupees. Disaster destroys decades of human effort and investments,thereby, placing new demands on society for reconstruction and rehabilitation. Disaster management thus,requires multi-disciplinary and proactive approach. The community, civil society organizations, media and theproverbial man on the street, everyone has to play a role in case such exigency occurs.

The various prevention and mitigation measures outlined below are aimed at building up capabilitiesas also how to deal with Disaster. The objective of a Disaster Management Plan is to localize a Disaster andcontain its effect to the greatest extent so as to minimize its impact on life, environment and property. Responseto Disaster, in the absence of a well-defined plan, would be arbitrary, leading to overemphasis of actions ofsome actions and absence of other critical actions. A formal plan for managing Disaster is, therefore, necessary.This Disaster management plan has a strong preventive focus which aims at reducing the frequency ofoccurrence of such Disaster while at the same time, it includes a plan of action for earthquakes, floods, cyclones,epidemics, industrial and chemical accidents, road accidents and fires.

51

Keeping in view, all the possible aspects of the aforesaid problem in mind and to keep theAdministration prepared in all possible ways to respond properly to various Disaster situations within shortestpossible time, possible Disaster situations/Disaster have been identified and the component plans have alsobeen identified & mentioned in detail in this document:

1. Natural calamities

2. Floods

3. Earthquake

4. Biological Disaster or Epidemic of Human/livestock/crops

5. Fire

II. Man made Calamities

(i) Industrial Disaster

(ii) Radiological Disaster

(iii) Accidents

(iv) Railways

(v) Road

(vi) Air

(vii) Building Collapse

(viii) Stampede at crowded religious functions/ melas/ processions. (ix) Food Poisoning

(x) Bomb Blast (Terrorist Activities)

The mode, degree and extent of response to fight out any Disaster depend upon the nature, degree andextent of Disaster, but some of the points are almost common to all kinds of situations. For example, it is to beensured in all types of Disaster that first of all appropriate prevention steps are to be taken.

Secondly, preparedness is required to contain the damages and casualties resulting from the Disaster.

Thirdly, steps for reclamation and restoration of community life within a reasonable time will have to betaken care of.

Similarly, it is common to all situations that: -

52

1. Central Control Rooms are to be established.

2. District Disaster Management Committee is to come into action.

3. A general line of action and some special duties to various officers and departments will haveto be assigned.

4. Voluntary Organizations may have to be involved and their role will have to be clearly specified andcoordinated.

5. Media may have to be briefed to suppress all kinds of rumors.

6. Information regarding resource inventory of Health Services, Transport Services, Evacuation &Rehabilitation Centers, and Food etc. may be needed.

Broad guidelines have been given in the following pages and “Standard Procedure” has beenformulated which is to be adhered to by all concerned. Once the Disaster takes place and the authorities areinformed of the same, they will take the necessary action with the help of the individual Disaster managementplans prepared for the respective Disaster/situations.

The main objectives of various preparedness measures are: -

i) Minimizing the loss of human lives.

ii) Minimizing the loss of livestock.

iii) Minimizing the loss to property and infrastructure.

iv) Minimizing ill effects on the health of affected population.

v) Bringing the human activities in the locality to normal condition soon after.

To achieve the above objectives different tasks have to be performed by different GovernmentDepartments and other agencies before, during and after the Disaster. Each Department’s role andresponsibilities have to be clearly identified and action plan needs to be drawn up by each department. Forclose cooperation between the various Department / Agencies, close coordination is required at the District.Headquarter as well as at the Tehsil Headquarter. The DM & Collector, Sepahijala will coordinate the work atthe District. The SDM’s are to co-ordinate all activities at the Sub-Division level.

53

The responsibility to manage all sorts of Disaster in the district rests with the “District DisasterManagement Committee” headed by the DM & Collector, Sepahijala, who may, depending upon the gravityof the situation, seek the help of “State Disaster Management Committee” and the “National DisasterManagement Committee”.

For operational expediency, the concerned Sub Divisional Magistrate, Superintendent of Police (SP),Block Development Officer and Tehsildar with their subordinate staffs will swing into action immediatelyafter receipt of information regarding any Disaster. The SDMs will immediately take over as in charge of thesite.

They will try their best to contain the situation with the available local resources. However, if they findthat the situation is beyond their control and the district level resource mobilization is required, they will seekthe help of their superiors or call the meeting of Disaster Management Committee. Operation Model forsuch situation is shown below.

D. STEPS OF DISASTER MANAGEMENT PLAN
