Further, the annuity receipts of DNMTL adequately cover its debt servicing requirements. The rating of DNMTL also continue to take into account divestment of the controlling stake in DNMTL by DBL to Shrem Roadways Private Limited (SRPL; part of Chhatwal Group Trust) and responsibility of DBL for undertaking the requisite operation and maintenance (O&M) and major maintenance (MM) activity of DNMTL without any consideration for the same from DNMTL as per the agreement entered between SRPL and DBL. The above rating strengths, however, continue to be tempered by inherent interest rate risk and performance risk attached with the O&M contractor (i.e. DBL).

  • The Reconstruction of Bhuj Case Study: Integration of Disaster
    The Reconstruction of Bhuj Case Study: Integration of Disaster Mitigation into Planning and Financing Urban Infrastructure after an Earthquake B.R. Balachandran Introduction to EPC and its Involvement in Bhuj The Environmental Planning Collaborative (EPC), established in 1996, is a not for profit, private, professional planning and development management company. The company provides professional consultancy services primarily to urban local bodies including municipal corporations and urban development authorities. EPC also works with a variety of other agencies involved in urban development such as state government departments, international funding and lending agencies, special purpose vehicles for urban development and non-government/autonomous organizations. Most projects are undertaken in a collaborative and participatory manner with significant involvement from the client, major stakeholders and other related agencies. EPC’s work is primarily of four types: (1) urban and regional development planning, (2) environmental and policy planning, (3) development management and (4) research and development. Immediately after the earthquake, EPC deputed its personnel in Bhuj to study the situation and initiate public consultations. This evolved into a USAID funded project entitled “Initiative for Planned and Participatory Reconstruction in Kutch” (IPPR) in collaboration with The Communities Group International (TCGI). The IPPR consisted of experiments in participatory planning at the regional level and in urban and rural communities. This was followed by a United States-Asia Environmental Partnership (USAEP)-funded project, “Atlas for Post-Disaster Reconstruction” under which EPC in collaboration with the Planning and The Reconstruction of Bhuj Development Company (PADCO) prepared maps of the four towns showing plot level information on intensity of damage, land use and number of floors.

    Key Idea From Kutch to Kashmir: Lessons for Use Since, October 11, 2005 early hours AIDMI team is in Kashmir assessing losses and needs. The biggest gap found is of understanding earthquake. Five key gaps are addressed here. nderstanding India's vulnerability: Using earthquake science to enhance Udisaster preparedness Every year, thousands flock to Kashmir, in India and Pakistan to marvel at her spectacular scenery and majestic mountain ranges. However, the reality of our location and mountainous surroundings is an inherent threat of devastating earthquakes. In addition to accepting earthquakes as a South Asian reality, we as humanitarian respondents as well as risk reduction specialists must now look to science to enhance disaster risk mitigation and preparedness.The humanitarian communalities know little about what scientific communities have discovered and what could be used to mitigate risk of earthquakes. Similarly, scientific communities need to know how to put scientific knowledge in mitigation perspective from the point of view of non-scientific communities. How do we bridge this gap? We at AIDMI acknowledged this gap, and from the overlapping questions, we selected four key areas relevant to Kashmir and South Asia and discussed them in this issue. Editorial Advisors: How do we use scientific knowledge on earthquakes? Dr. Ian Davis Certain regions of South Asia are more vulnerable to earthquakes than others. Kashmir Cranfield University, UK ranks high on this list. Fortunately, geologists know which regions are more vulnerable Kala Peiris De Costa and why. When this information is disseminated to NGOs, relief agencies and Siyath Foundation, Sri Lanka governments, they can quickly understand where investments, attention and disaster Khurshid Alam preparedness measures should be focussed.
