CTI ENGINEERING INTERNATIONAL OYO INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION The following foreign exchange rate is applied in the study: US$ 1.00 = PKR 88.4 PREFACE The National Disaster Management Plan (NDMP) is a milestone in the history of the Disaster Management System (DRM) in Pakistan. The rapid change in global climate has given rise to many disasters that pose a severe threat to the human life, property and infrastructure. Disasters like floods, earthquakes, tsunamis, droughts, sediment disasters, avalanches, GLOFs, and cyclones with storm surges are some prominent manifestations of climate change phenomenon. Pakistan, which is ranked in the top ten countries that are the most vulnerable to climate change effects, started planning to safeguard and secure the life, land and property of its people in particular the poor, the vulnerable and the marginalized. However, recurring disasters since 2005 have provided the required stimuli for accelerating the efforts towards capacity building of the responsible agencies, which include federal, provincial, district governments, community organizations, NGOs and individuals. Prior to 2005, the West Pakistan National Calamities Act of 1958 was the available legal remedy that regulated the maintenance and restoration of order in areas affected by calamities and relief against such calamities.

  • Reviews Sedimentology Around Jettiesas Strategies' Prevent
    IOSR Journal of Applied Chemistry (IOSR-JAC) e-ISSN: 2278-5736.Volume 9, Issue 11 Ver. I (November. 2016), PP 21-29 www.iosrjournals.org Reviews Sedimentology around Jettiesas Strategies’ Prevent Sedimentation Ahrari-Roudi M. *1; M.A.Zainudini*2. *1Assistant Professor, Marine Sciences Faculty, Oceanography Department, Chabahar Maritime University *2Marine Sciences Faculty, Oceanography Department, Chabahar Maritime University Abstract: The purpose of this study was to determine texture and source of sediments in Chabahar jetties by using granulometry and determination of organic matter and calcium carbonate content. The Makranaccretionary prism is located in the Northwestern part of the Indian Ocean, in South of Iran and Pakistan. South-east Iran is the site of a rare case of young transition between subduction and collision. The project aims to show future dredging operation and infrastructure development plans at the Oman Sea ports in order to assess the challenges concerning sediments, handling of dredged sediments and fulfillment of all the plans. Moreover, concentration of oxides and elements including SiO2, Al2O3, Fe2O3, CaO, MgO, MnO, TiO2, B, Bi, As, Sr, Cr, Cu, Ni, Ba, and W in various types of sediments were determined separately. The result of geochemical studies of sediments and Putting together them with element distribution maps of bay show high concentration of some heavy elements like Cr, Sr, W, Zn, Bi, As and Cu in the margin of ShahidBeheshty and ShahidKalantari jetties in the most Southeastern part. This confirms the human activities as a main origin for the pollution.Results show a majority of the ports plan to do dredging in next 1-5 or 6-10 years with the aim of maintaining or increasing the water depth, construction works or expansion of the port area.
