Sri Pramod kumar Das, OAS (SAG) COLLECTOR AND DISTRICT MAGISTRATE, BALASORE P R E F A C E Balasore district is a land of rivers, rivulets, drainage etc and agriculture is its predominant occupation. This district has been experiencing Natural Calamities since times immemorial. Cyclonic storms, inundation of land by floods and severe tidal waves from the Bay of Bengal are common features of this district.Besides, continuous torrential rain coupled with thunder storms add to the miseries of the people. There is constant worry at all levels to fight against these adversities. In order to alleviate the distresss condition of people, to protect their habitat, & their domestic animals that are always badly hit every year, advance planning is made. As it is said that prevention of anything is always better than its cure, certain remedial measures have been spelt out in this booklet of planning for the guidance of all concerned. The problems have been discussed in teeth and nails in this plan to grapple with the probable contingencies arising out of flood, cyclone etc, from time to time. The basic objective of this Action plan is to ensure safety of the lives and properties of the people including domestic animals during flood/cyclone or any such natural /man-made calamities. The District Disaster Management Plan (DDMP) outlining the measures to be taken in the event of any natural or man-made disaster during the year 2016 – 2017 has been prepared on the past experiences. While formulating the District Disaster Management Plan instructions of Special Relief Commissioner, MD OSDMA, United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), suggestions of resource persons of the District Natural Calamity Committee and also valuable suggestions of Members at the State Level Training Workshop for the ADM and District Emergency Officers during February,15-17-2016 in Revenue Officers Training Institute(ROTI)Gothapatana,Bhubaneswar and those made by PRI members in the District level Heatwave meeting held on 16.2.2016 have been taken in to account.Since the calamity season commences with onset of summer season, the DDMP has been prepard in advance. The Plan deals with Risk Assessment and Vulnerability Analysis, Identification of Disaster Prone Areas, Response Structures, Inventory of Resources, Standard Operating Procedures, Directory of Institutions and Key Individuals, etc. The Plan is prepared to help the Collector & District Magistrate and the District Administration to focus quickly on the essentials and crucial aspects of both Preparedness and Response. It is hoped that all concerned will rise to the occasion to ensure that lives and livelihoods, during natural calamities like flood/cyclone, get adequate assistance to get rid of their sufferings and also to ensure that precautionary measures are taken so that people feel safe. Pramod kumar Das , OAS(SAG) Collector-Cum-District Magistrate, Balasore Balasore District DISTRICT DISASTER MANAGEMENT PLAN, 2016-2017 F O R E W O R D It is hoped that the District level Officials who are in charge of different Departments will carefully go through the District Disaster Management Plan (DDMP) and remain alert to emergent situations that may arise in the course of the year. The DDMP seeks to serve as a useful handbook of Operational guidelines for the Officers of the District Administration. It is expected that Field Officers working in Balasore district in the departments of Revenue, Agriculture, Health, Veterinary, Animal Resource Development, Irrigation and other departments will thoroughly verse themselves with these guidelines and also the relevant provisions of Odisha Relief Code. A word of caution may be mentioned here that, plans are useful and work only if they are updated and practiced through intensive mock exercises and simulations. As team leader District Collector bears an enormous responsibility of ensuring that his team is well trained and aware of their roles & responsibility during crisis. Mock drills and exercises go long way in this task. They also serve to fine tune response and remain current with ground situations. It is a great pleasure to release this Operational Module for Disaster Management prepared by the District Collectorate, Balasore with assistance from OSDMA and United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), Bhubaneswar. The need for an effective and comprehensive District Disaster Management Plan was felt necessary because the Contingency Plans prepared earlier had certain missing links. It was helpful only in identifying vulnerable points and storage locations. However the new DDMP tries to address the problem in a holistic manner focussing more on “Preparedness & Capacity Building” on the part of all the stake holders in case of an exigency. It is expected that this DDMP would prove very useful to the District Administration in Balasore to respond more effectively to ensure zero causality & minimum loss of lives and loss of property during disasters. The Standard Operating Procedures for various field departments, checklists and formats for reporting will go a long way in improving the effectiveness of the district level response. It is expected that the District Administration will carry out mock exercises to validate and field test this Management Plan and periodically update the directory of contact details so that it will be useful in emergencies.
