While the spread of the disaster situation was confined only to 15 districts, compared to the 24 districts in the previous year, increased incidents of landslides and deaths in 2017 made the situation equally challenging. The disaster was triggered by heavy rain and high winds brought about by the southwest mon- soon on 25th and 26th May, affecting 879,778 people with 219 deaths and 74 missing. The disas- ter damaged nearly 80,000 houses and affected livelihoods of over 342,000 people dependent on agriculture, trade, and industry. The Ministry of Disaster Management (MoDM) and District and Divisional Secretariats led the extensive rescue and relief operations with the support of the Sri Lankan Army, Navy and Air Force, media, civil society organisations, private sector and indi- viduals. A Post-Disaster Needs Assessment (PDNA) was carried out as the emergency/relief phase ended. The PDNA was conducted under the overall leadership of the Ministry of Disaster Management and the Ministry of National Policies and Economic Affairs. The line ministries undertook the -as sessment supported by national experts and a team of young graduates, coordinated by the Uni- versity of Colombo. As soon as the PDNA was concluded and the main needs identified, a recovery planning process was initiated in September. The resultant recovery plan was prepared with the involvement of all line ministries, departments, units, and supporting agents. Our sincere thanks to all those who contributed to this recovery plan as well as to the United Nations and the World Bank for their overall guidance. The key objective of the Post-Disaster Recovery Plan PDRP( ) is to restore and reconstruct dam- aged social, infrastructure, and productive sectors, meeting disaster resilient standards, principles of environmental sustainability and gender/social inclusion. In that sense, the document covers nine sectors and three cross-cutting areas and looks at the overall impact of the disaster. As a core section of the recovery plan, the document presents the institutional and implementation arrange- ments to be used for putting all strategies into action, as well as the main objectives, principles and prioritization criteria in order to conduct the recovery process. The Plan considers the available re- sources and budgets for 2017 for the next three years and identifies the unmet budget. Finally, clear monitoring and information management procedures are proposed to follow up the intervention and ensure that the outputs and outcomes are achieved. The overall outcome we are aiming for is a safer Sri Lanka,

  • SRI LANKA Floods and Storms
    SRI LANKA: Floods and 29 April 1999 storms Information Bulletin N° 01 The Disaster Unusually heavy rains for this time of year and violent thunderstorms along the western and south-western coast of Sri Lanka between 16 and 21 April caused widespread damage and severe floods in the south-west and south of the country. The main rivers, Kelani and Kalu, rose by over seven feet, and caused additional flooding, made worse by slow run-off. Some of the worst areas received as much as 290 mm of rain in 24 hours, and even the capital, Colombo, where 284 mm fell within 24 hours, experienced bad flooding in many sectors of the city. The worst affected districts are Ratnapura, Colombo, Kalutara, Gampaha, Galle, Kandy, Matara and Kegalle, all located between the coast and the Kandyan highlands. Six persons were reported killed by lightning, landslides or floods. Thousands of houses were damaged or destroyed, and initial official figures place the number of homeless at around 75,000 families (the average family in Sri Lanka consists of five members). In Colombo alone an estimated 12,400 families were affected. The damage is reportedly much worse in the rural areas particularly in Ratnapura District, but precise information is difficult to come by since many of the affected areas are totally cut off, with roads inundated and power and telephone lines damaged. The railway line from Colombo to Kandy has been blocked since 19 April, when boulders from a landslide damaged the tracks. FirstDistricts estimates of affected people areSub-Divisions as follows:
