The proportion of households having electricity connection in the district (79.95%) is significantly less in comparison to the state average (86.71%) mainly because of the lag in electricity connections in rural Kodagu, specifically in Madikeri and Virajpet taluks. In urban areas of the district, the progress in household electrification is comparable to that of Karnataka (more than 96% coverage). Partly, owing to its hilly terrain,
The district has a total of 17 regional rural banks, 111 commercial bank branches and co-operative bank branches of 114 apart from 3 PLD banks. The district is served by 7 regulated markets. The district has a police station for every 34375 persons as against the state average of one police station for every 58600 persons.

2.0 HAZARD VULNERABILITY, CAPACITY AND RISK ASSESSMENT (HVCRA)
Hazard is a natural physical event which has a potential to convert into a disaster, causing widespread injury or deaths and damage to public or private property or the environment.
Vulnerability means inability to resist a hazard or respond when a disaster has occurred. It depends on several factors such as people’s age and state of health, local environmental and sanitary conditions, as well as on the quality and state of local buildings and their location with respect to any hazards
Kodagu district in Karnataka state lies in the southern part of Western Ghats with high range hills. The topography of the region is sensitive and any changes in the landuse causes landslide or slope failures affecting the population. Thus, the district along with its scenic beauty and pleasant climatic conditions is also becoming known for natural hazards. Infrastructural development in the form of laying new roads and widening of the existing roads involved the modification of slopes thus the equilibrium attained by the nature has been deteriorated. Majority of slopes along the high way pose significant risk dominantly from rainfall-induced slope failures. The factors generally responsible for the landslides or slope failures viz., lithology, structure, slope, morphometry, geomorphology, land use/land cover and drainage density.

4.5. BUILDING CODES
The National Building Code of India (NBC), a comprehensive building Code, is a national instrument providing guidelines for regulating the building construction activities across the country. It serves as a Model Code for adoption by all agencies involved in building construction works by Public Works Departments, other government construction departments, local bodies or private construction agencies. The Code mainly contains administrative regulations, development control rules and general building requirements; fire safety requirements; stipulations regarding materials, structural design and construction (including safety); and building and plumbing services.
Considering a series of further developments in the field of building construction including the lessons learnt in the aftermath of number of natural calamities like devastating earthquakes and super cyclones witnessed by the country, a Project Page | 36
Kodagu District Disaster Management Plan 2017-18 for comprehensive revision of NBC was taken up under the aegis of National Building Code Sectional Committee, CED 46 of BIS and its 18 expert Panels; involving as many as 400 experts. As a culmination of the Project, the revised NBC has now been brought out as National Building Code of India 2005 (NBC 2005).

Kodagu District Disaster Management Plan 2017-18 4.7. FLOOD PLAIN MANAGEMENT
Flooding is the most costly natural hazard in the India in terms of causing greater loss of life and property than all other natural hazards combined. In fact, ninety percent (90%) of all disasters are flood-related
Definition -an area of low-lying ground adjacent to a river, formed mainly of river sediments and subject to flooding.
(Floodplain management is the operation of a community program of corrective and preventative measures for reducing flood damage. These measures take a variety of forms and generally include zoning, subdivision, or building requirements, and special-purpose floodplain ordinances. Mitigation practices, such as flood proofing or retrofitting a flood prone building, are equally beneficial to reducing flood damages to the community.
.Floodplain management is a continuous process of making decisions about whether and how floodplain lands and waters are to be used. It encompasses the choices made by owners of floodplain homes and businesses, decisions made by officials at all levels of government, development plans made by owners of commercial floodprone land, and the judgment of farmers with pastures and fields stretching to the riverbanks. The process also focuses the attention of decision makers on the relationship between human use and the conservation of natural resources.
4.7. STORM WATER MANAGEMENT
Definition - Managing the quantity and quality of storm water is termed, "Storm water Management. Storm water management includes both technical and institutional aspects, including:
control of flooding and erosion; control of hazardous materials to prevent release of pollutants into the environment (source control); planning and construction of storm water systems so contaminants are removed before they pollute surface waters or groundwater resources; acquisition and protection of natural waterways or rehabilitation; building "soft" structures such as ponds, swales, wetlands or green infrastructure solutions to work with existing or "hard" drainage structures, such as pipes and concrete channels; development of funding approaches to storm water programs potentially including storm water user fees and the creation of a storm water utility; development of long-term asset management programs to repair and replace aging infrastructure; revision of current storm water regulations to address comprehensive storm water needs;
Page | 38
Kodagu District Disaster Management Plan 2017-18
enhancement and enforcement of existing ordinances to make sure property owners consider the effects of storm water before, during and after development of their land; education of a community about how its actions affect water quality, and about what it can do to improve water quality; and planning carefully to create solutions before problems become too difficult to handle.
4.8.TOWN PLANNING ACT:
Planning adapting and enforcing stringent building codes flood proofing designs seismic design standard cyclone and wind bracing requirements for new construction or repairing extreme construction (The Karnataka Town and Country Planning Amendment Bill 2007 mention at section 6 of the principal states indicating hazard proness of the area Prepare an accurate map indicating hazard proness of the areas showing the present land use in the judistrictions)
4.9. ZONING REGULATIONS:
Planning and adopting zoning ordinances that steer development away from areas subject to flooding, storm surge or coastal erosion
(zoning of land use for residential commercial; industrial agricultural recreation educational and other purposes keeping on the view the natural hazard prone areas
- In clause (III) of subsection 2 of session section 12 the following words shall be inserted after the word zone - Keeping in view the natural hazard prone areas to enforce the provisions of such plans and explaining the manner in which necessary permission to developing nay land be obtained planning )

Mitigation Strategies to Build a Safe House/ Building and Demolish / Restore Old buildings in Kodagu District:
We do not have to worry too much in building a perfect house / building like the Japanese build their house, because of their demand in building an Earthquake proof house, particularly in Kodagu District. However, the District administration and the public can take note of some of the following suggestions while constructing a house, schools, colleges and offices in the District.
Buildings should be constructed on a good concrete base. No stones filled with mud be used for the basement No bricks filled with mud’s be used for walls
Page | 40
Kodagu District Disaster Management Plan 2017-18 Buildings should be of simple, geometric design, avoiding L and D shapes. Rectangular and square type buildings are most suitable. Light roofing must be avoided. Heavy roofing with cuddappa slabs on mud walls must be banned. Fixing very heavy RCC water tanks on the top of the Building should be avoided. Many Government Buildings, particularly Old Schools/ Government offices, built by Mud walls with lime mortar should be demolished. The old City market area and buildings needs reconstruction with good Engineering Earthquake resistant structures. Slum dwellers should be minimum. Alternative arrangements have to be made for these slum dwellers to build good houses. It is in these areas which are vulnerable and loss of life will be more during Earthquake.

In case of forest fires, the Forest department shall be immediately notified and the Fire and the Fire agencies shall be informed to act as per the action plan decided upon. The local people forming a part of a voluntary force shall be involved by the Forest department to tackle forest fires. In case of accidents in apartments and multi-storage buildings, the units involved should go by the motto “Saves lives first and then property”. Evacuation of humans shall be the top priority. In case of fires in industries and chemical godowns, depending on vulnerable zone, the police and home guards shall be directed to evacuate the inhabitants. Care should be taken to see that the operation does not create panic. The Hospitals concerned and the ambulances shall then be directed to carry out relief operations. The Agency shall assess the magnitude of relief required and then direct the fire agency and the ambulance to carry victims to the hospitals concerned. The Police and the home guards shall be informed to maintain the necessary law and order to ensure proper fire fighting land relief operations. The Voluntary organizations shall be informed if necessary for assistance in relief operations. However, the assistance of these organizations shall be utilized for rehabilitation of fire victims.

Kodagu District Disaster Management Plan 2017-18 Response Plan for Festival Related accidents:- On receiving information regarding a festival related accident, the Agency shall take immediate steps to direct concerned units to carry out evacuation of the people assembled. The Police and Home guards along with voluntary organizations shall play a major role here. These nits shall base on the contingency plan, arrange for unaffected crowd to disperse. It is very necessary to ensure that nobody panics. The other agencies such as Fire agency, the hospital staff, and cranes if necessary shall move in only after the area is cleared by the police for relief operations. The police shall look out for anti social elements and ensure law and order. In case of failure of electricity, the electricity department shall make temporary arrangements for providing electricity. In case of epidemics, mobilization of paramedics and volunteers from different organizations is must. The District administration should arrange for proper sanitation facilities in such cases. The first task should be to stop the spread of the disease.
MAJOR BUILDING COLLAPSE. Building collapse and consequent loss of lives has become common in the Urban areas. Due to high demand and legal battles the occupants refuse to vacate for fear of not getting it back and continue to live in unsafe buildings. Poor quality construction also aggravates the cause of building collapse. Natural calamities, such as Earth Quake; Cyclone and flood could also be contribution factors for building collapse. The Town planning and development authorities should technically ascertain the factor of safety of old buildings. Type of Mitigation Measures hazard Guards immediately after receiving the information. The Police should be notified to cordon off the area and discourage people from crowding near the accident spot. The paramedics and ambulances should be rushed with facilities to take of injuries demanding surgical treatment. Hospital in the vicinity should be informed to be prepared to Building receive victims. Ortho and Neuro surgeons should be kept ready. collapse Crane services and metal cutting services should be called for. The information on the following should be given to all the units involved. Building’s use, Number of occupants. Number of victims trapped and their probable location. Presence of hazards, Gas and Flammables. The support of a Technical unit or Engineers should be utilized. Page | 47
Kodagu District Disaster Management Plan 2017-18 Place rescuers in “call and listen position”. Have all the units to call for silence in between operations. Once communications with the victim has been established, it should be constantly maintained. It is safer to cut; holes in floors rather than breaching the walls as it may undermine the structural integrity of the rest of the building. The Electrical department should cut off the supply to the building. .Rescue teams should have a leader.
4.11 Steps taken for developing and implementing public safety norms for critical infrastructures and places of worships.
When crowds are “controlled” everyone can enjoy themselves and a business or event can be more successful. That’s why, in any worship places or venue – stadium or arena, conference center or airport, mall or amusement park – crowd control techniques play a vital role. Here are five techniques that should be considered and incorporated into an effective crowd control management plan
Type of Mitigation Measures hazard 1. Wayfinding Optimization A frequent visitor to an establishment or venue will feel comfortable finding their way. But newcomers are simply unfamiliar with what’s what and what’s where. Leave nothing to chance. Design and optimize your wayfinding approach for the first-timer and remember that whether it’s their first time or their fiftieth time, you can’t go wrong by making the directions clear. Wayfinding is enhanced with directional and informational signage to make the way clear. And don’t forget to clearly mark established areas – Place of checkouts, seating areas, waiting lounges, and so on – so people know worship when they’ve arrived at their desired destination. 2. Queue Management People must wait in line to get into the parking lot (and out of it), to get their tickets, to purchase concessions, to enter a building, to get to their seat… Lines are inevitable, but they don’t have to be painful. Because waiting in line can cause tension among a large group of impatient, tired, or excited people, crowd control issues can easily arise if queuing is not handled properly. Distraction is always a good solution to help people forget that they’re
Page | 48
Kodagu District Disaster Management Plan 2017-18 waiting. Offer in-line entertainment, such as highlight reels or promotional videos to keep the crowd occupied. Incorporate in-line merchandise, such as t-shirts or magnets to provide the type of distraction that also boosts sales. And if you’re anticipating heavy or rowdy crowds, consider barriers that are not easily shifted, moved, or toppled. Invest in posts that have a strong magnetic base or opt for mounts that are permanently drilled into the ground but which allow for the removal of crowd control stanchions when they are not necessary.
3. Temporary Closures Inevitably there will be sections or areas of a facility that need to be closed off, whether for routine maintenance, cleaning, or renovation. The way you handle such temporary closures can impact crowd control and because the closure is not expected, it often requires a higher level of “policing” than the rest of a venue. It’s crucial to make sure a temporary shift is clearly marked and that alternate routes or instructions are offered.
4. Rapid Deployment There are expected ebbs and flows of customers and guests, and then there is the unexpected. It’s a facility manager’s job to plan and be prepared for the most basic blip and the most outlandish possible occurrence.
5. Customer Flow Management To truly keep crowds under your control, it’s essential to have solutions in place throughout your entire facility so people continue to move in the right direction whether they’re coming in, going out, or making their way around inside. Velvet ropes are a subtle and sophisticated way to guide a subdued crowd, say at a benefit, temple event. Belts and stanchions with post-top signage and banners can keep the rowdy amusement park crowds in some semblance of order. When you can keep customers moving in whatever direction they wish to go – or whatever direction they’re “supposed” to go – you can temper crowd frenzy and maintain a well-oiled, highly controlled environment that is prepared for the smallest glitch or biggest disaster

Kind: 'Kind' refers to equipment, vehicles or personnel for example; Truck, Medical team, Bulldozer. 5.1.2 RESPONSE AND EVACUATION OF DISABLED - AVAILABILITY OF ASSISTIVE DEVICES AND TECHNOLOGIES
(India has a large constituency of persons with disabilities and other vulnerable groups who are presently excluded from emergency planning and response services due to lack of adequate accessible infrastructure and trained manpower. In India alone, as per the 2001 Census, there are around 2.19 crore disabled people, constituting 2.13% of the total population of the country (Disability India Information Resources, 2007).
National Policy on Disaster Management the National Policy on Disaster Management (“NPDM”) India’s vulnerability to national disasters and emergencies, and more specifically, acknowledges that economically and socially weaker segments of the population often face worst situations in cases of national disasters. “Within the Page | 50
Kodagu District Disaster Management Plan 2017-18 vulnerable groups, elderly persons, women, children - especially women rendered destitute and children orphaned on account of disasters and the differently able persons are exposed to higher risks.” One of the objectives of the policy is “ensuring efficient response and relief with a caring approach towards the needs of the vulnerable sections of the society.” Hence there is a broad mandate to cover the needs of persons with disabilities. The policy envisages a shift from a disaster relief perspective to a more proactive and prepared approach, with a focus on averting or mitigating disasters in order to minimize loss to life and property. Section 5.2.6 of the NPDM discusses forecasting and early warning systems, and mentions several Information and Communications Technology (ICT) tools that can be used for forecasting as well as imparting timely warning of disasters. The scope of this section needs to be broadened to include information and communications technologies which are accessible.)

6.0 CAPACITY BUILDING AND TRAINING MEASURES
Approach
UNDP APPROACH Over the years, UNDP has invested heavily in training and skills-building of individual capacity in DRR and recovery. However, training is only one methodology for capacity development and it cannot be conducted as an isolated intervention. UNDP also recognizes that sustainable capacity development also requires building organizational capacities, for example a national disaster management authority or a crisis management center. Organizational level capacities help develop and apply internal policies, arrangements, procedures and frameworks, which is necessary to deliver the organization’s mandate.
6.1 INSTITUTIONAL CAPACITY BUILDING A number of training programmes to be organized for specialized groups at community level office bearers, school teachers and principals, architects, engineers, doctors, masons, etc. The professionals from all section shall be trained. They shall be sensitized and given training on disaster management. They shall also be encouraged to organize awareness campaigns in their areas.

The response plan contains two approaches:
1. Short-term Plan and 2-Long-term Plan.
Short term Plan - Short-term plan comprising relief to be provided immediately following a disaster based on Norms of relief if applicable. Setting up of shelter places and immediate restoration of power supply, water supply, clearance of roads etc. Coordination with various agencies, NGOs , National and International.
Long term Plan: Long Term plan comprises of reconstruction of earthquake proof buildings, rehabilitation of people in safe areas. Enforcement of DM Act 2005 , involvement of community participation
7.2 RESPONSE FLOW CHART
Introduction: Response Flow Chart procedures are the foundation of any crisis management plan. The objective of the emergency procedures is to be able to protect lives and minimize damage to assets and to try to ‘nip the incident in the bud’ before it escalates into a disaster.
Need of response flow chart: he need is to create flowcharts that convey the first actions to be carried out and the escalations and process flows based on the emerging scenario. Before the construction of the flow charts the following need to be defined: • Primary contacts • Emergency response team members • Crisis management team members • head count lists • First aid trained personnel • Emergency service providers contact numbers • Emergency contact numbers for all employees • Vendor contact numbers • Building evacuation drills

7.3 WARNING & ALERT
7.3.A SATELLITE BASED COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEMS Satellite based Communication systems mean communication systems intended for users on the Earth but which have some equipment in space, i.e. a satellite. Different satellites carry out different jobs, such as taking weather pictures or finding accurate positions on earth in terms of latitudes and longitudes. Communications satellites are essentially radio relay stations in space and are sometimes referred to as COMSATs. The other words you may hear are SATCOMS for satellite communications in general and SATPHONE for a satellite phone terminal. The most important feature of a communications satellite is the transponder - a radio that receives a conversation at one frequency and then amplifies it and re-transmits it back to Earth on another frequency.

NGOs/ CBOs The role of NGOs is a potential key element in disaster management. The NGOs operating at grassroots level can provide a suitable alternative as they have an edge over governmental agencies for invoking community involvement. This is chiefly because, the NGO sector has strong linkages with the community base and can exhibit great flexibility in procedural matters vis-à-vis the government.

Kodagu District Disaster Management Plan 2017-18 TERMINATION OF EMERGENCY Calling off an emergency or recovery following aftermath of an emergency is a crucial phase in emergency planning as the district administration has to make sure that affected areas are safe to re-enter. The recovery and re-entry phase will begin after the declaration of termination of emergency situation. This decision would be made by the Dy. Commissioner who is the District Disaster Manager. The recovery plan would be flexible enough to adapt to the prevailing conditions. The district administration should instil confidence in the minds of people for restoration of normal life. Following aspects need to be addressed in developing this: Sr. Description Remarks no. 1. A detailed report from the Site Emergency Co- ordinator at the Industry (in case of an industrial disaster) or from local administration / police in case of other type of disasters should be asked. 2. De-escalation for the emergency should be done gradually and correct procedures should be written for various activities to address following: - Organising a re-entry team - Inspecting the damaged area - Assessing the damage to the facility - Decontaminating the affected area - Clearing up the debris - Restoring services to the affected area 3. Public notification also needs to be done with available means of communication. Declaring the emergency concluded and making the "all clear" known to the community may also be done through media 4. Dy. Commissioner is responsible for restoring rehabilitation centres to their pre-emergency condition. 5. Who will assess property damage? Is litigation a possibility? Against whom and by whom? 6. How will the relief assistance be distributed? 7. Beginning an investigation into the causes of the emergency The planning team may visit the community where an accident has previously occurred to learn from them what recovery problems they faced, and how these were resolved.
