IRRIGATION DEPARTMENT, CACHAR. About the Irrigation Department:-

Water Resources Development provides the basic infrastructure for the growth of economy of the district and large investment has been made for the purpose in our country. Irrigation is an artificial application of water to soil for crop production by constructing head works across a river. In a world of explosive population growth, particularly in developing nations like India, the increase in agricultural production in general and food grain production in particular has not kept pace with the growth of the population. Every means must therefore be sought to increase agricultural production. In the arid and semi-arid zones of the world one of the principal means to achieve this, is development of irrigation. Our district also needs irrigation to keep pace with the growth of its huge population, which has crossed one billion marks in this millennium.

The economy of Cachar district is predominantly agricultural based, as about 85% of the populations live on agriculture and allied activities for their livelihood. To meet the rising demand for food and to provide employment to the growing population, it is highly necessary to increase the pace of irrigation development.

The aims and objectives of the Irrigation Department are mainly:

 To increase Agricultural production of the district by facilitating introducing high yielding variety crops.  To increase Irrigation intensity practicing multiple cropping.  To generate hydroelectric power from canal drop/fall wherever feasible.  To improve the rural communication using inspection path provided along important canals.

Main Tasks of the Irrigation Department

DISASTER MANAGEMENT :- Disaster Management can be defined as the body of policy and administrative decisions and operational activities, which pertain to various stages ( pre- disaster, disaster occurrences & post- disaster) of disaster at all levels. There are mainly three key stages of activity that are taken up within disaster management: -

PRE DISASTER DURING DISASTER POST DISASTER ( Before the disaster strikes) ( Disaster Occurrence) ( After a disaster) Activities taken up to reduce Activities taken to ensure that Activities taken to achieve human and property losses the needs and provisions of the early recovery and does not caused by the hazard and to victims are met and the expose the earlier vulnerable ensure that these losses are sufferings are minimized. conditions. Activities taken up also minimized when the Activities taken up at this stage at this stage are called as disaster strikes. Risk reduction include emergency response response and recovery activities are taken up during activities. activities. this stage and these are termed as prevention, mitigation and preparedness activities.

PLANNING FOR PREVENTION AND MITIGATION DISASTER :-

Pre- disaster planning consists of activities such as disaster prevention and mitigation and disaster preparedness. Prevention of disaster refers on the measures to eliminate or reduce the incidence or severity of emergencies/disasters. Disaster mitigation focuses on the hazard that causes the disaster and tries to eliminate or drastically reduce its direct effects in long term. The example of prevention is the repairing and maitanence of breach portion of guide bund, afflux bund, and canal embankment in flood prone areas to avoid floods.The best example of mitigation is the construction of embankments and construction of proper drainage system in flood prone areas to avoid floods. The other example includes retrofitting of weak buildings to make them earthquake resistant. Preparedness focuses on plans to respond to a disaster threat or occurrence. It takes into account an estimation of emergency needs and identifies the resources to meet the needs. The first objective of the preparedness is to reduce the disaster impact through appropriate actions and improve the capacity of those who are likely to be affected most. The second is to ensure that ongoing development continues to improve the capacities and capabilities of the system to strengthen preparedness efforts at community level. Finally it guides reconstruction so as to 52 ensure reduction in vulnerability. The best example of preparedness activities are the development of community awareness and sensitization system through community education and administrative preparedness by way of stockpiling of supplies, developing emergency plans for rescue and relief.

STANDARD OPERATIONAL PROCEDURE (SOP) FOR PREVENTION AND MITIGATION FROM FLOOD IMPACTS OF IRRIGATION SCHEMES :

 The Section Officer along with Section Assistant and Khalasis will visit the schemes under jurisdiction, identify the areas and types of measure to be taken up, mapping them and prepare estimates after proper survey and submitted to Assistant Executive Engineer for onward disposal.  The Assistant Executive Engineer will forward the estimates to the Executive Engineer for necessary action.  The Executive Engineer will approve the same for implementation after scrutiny on availability of fund, or submit to higher authority through proper channel for technical sanction for implementation.

PLANNING FOR RESPONSE TO A DISASTER :- Planning for response to a disaster is a vital mechanism which refers to measures taken in anticipation of, during and immediately after a disaster struct to ensure that the effects are minimized. Effective response implies testing the reliability and operability of the preventive and mitigative mechanism put in place. Preparedness is takes into account an estimation of emergency needs and identifies the resources to meet the needs. Key points to remember for good respose are-  Procurement and sufficient stock of necessary imergency response materials such as empty cement bags, ropes, bamboo, cutting and filling instruments, food, medicences etc.  Dissemination of early warning.  Inventory search and rescue equipments.  Communication plan.  Evaquation plan.  Mobilization of resources.  Damage assement etc.

STANDARD OPERATIONAL PROCEDURE (SOP) FOR RESPONSE TO FLOOD IMPACTS OF IRRIGATION SCHEMES :  The Executive Engineer (E.E.) will issue a notification on 1st week of May and assign routine flood duty engaging Section Officers (S.O), Section Assistants (S.A.), Khalasis and Chowkiders in two shifts (day shift and night shift) to till further order with copy to Assistant Executive Engineer as superviser.  The Section Officer will prepare a list of response materials and machineries which will be or may be required to minimize flood damages or impacts well ahead of flood.  The Assistant Executive Engineer (A.E.E.) will instruct the Section Officer to ensure regular duty of S.A. and Khalasis and keep fully open of gates of barrage and closure of head regulators of scheme when no need of use. He will also ascertain their close vigil to canal, embankmebt, afflux bund, guide bund and other structures etc.  On getting any symptom of damages due to flood, the concern S.A and Khalsis will immediately inform it to the S.O. and promptly take protection measures with materials in hand. The S.A. and Khalasis of Lift Irrigation scheme on rise of water as seemed to endanger for machineries will keep the machineries in high land.  The S.O. will immediately visit the site and will mapping the impact and report the A.E.E., E.E., Water Users Association (WUA) and District Control Room if necessary.  The A.E.E and E.E. will immediately visit the site and instruct the S.O. to take measures. The S.O. will take measures accordingly.

PLANNING FOR RELIEF DURING A DISASTER :- Once a disaster is occurred there is likely impact like damage to property, loss of natural resources, loss of life, break down of connectivity and accessibility, damage to communication network, damage to physical infrastructures. People become panic and they do get proper opportionity for earnings and also can not collect food, medicenes, fodder due to communication break down etc. Thus, Planning for relief to a disaster is necessary to assist the people and save life those are affected due to disaster. Basially the relief process is done DDMA through other Department.

PLANNING FOR REHABILITATION AFTER A DISASTER :- Rehabilitation or Recovery is a long term planning which will focuses on all the factors that have been fully or partially disrupted/destructed/damaged and take measures to rebuild them.

Rehabilitation may also be refered to as the measures that support emergency and help the affected communities in the reconstruction of the physical infrastructure and reconstruction of economic and emotional well- being. It implies making good of the losses people, livestock and ecosystem has suffered and futher safeguards to be put in place to prevent the likelihood of those losses in the event of a similar kind of disaster.

STANDARD OPERATIONAL PROCEDURE (SOP) FOR RECONSTRUCTION OF INFRASTRUCTURES :  The Section Officer along with Section Assistant and Khalasis will visit the schemes under jurisdiction, identify the extent of damages, mapping them and prepare estimates after proper survey and submitted to Assistant Executive Engineer for onward disposal.  The Assistant Executive Engineer will forward the estimates to the Executive Engineer for necessary action.

The process of prevention and mitigation has to be done considering the facts of all the odds and probable situations. Followings are some systematic way to prevent and mitigate the affect of disasters:

Flood: Occurrences of flood are common among all the disasters in our district. During rainy season which will start from month of April and ends in the month of September we face the problem of flood. The rainy season is almost cover half of the year that is 6 months.So the prevention and mitigation steps as follows:- Damage to physical infrastructure: Most of Elementary Schools areaffected by the natural disaster like Flood in our district.Some schools are inundated by flood water and some schools remain cutoff from the main land due to flood water.Last year i.e. 2019-20 our district had faced a major flood in the month of June a total of 70 nos. of Elementary Schools was inundated due to flood water. A detail damage report along with plan estimate have been submitted to the DDMA authority.To mitigate the affect we will have to prepare the list of schools which are vulnerable to flood. Our department will identify schools which belongs to the flood prone area that is schools where flood water disrupts the normal teaching learning activities. Also a list will be prepared for schools which acts as relief-camp during the flood.The Department of Elementary Education, Cachar has already provided 200 copies of Disaster Management Calendar supplied by the District Disaster Management Authority, Cachar to all the flood affected schools. In order to prepare our students a awareness campaign to all the Elementary Schools, everyschools are conducting ‘School Safety Day’ on first Monday of every month as directed by the DEE, Assam.

* Research or training facilities :- The department should have adequate & regular departmental activities to focusing preparedness, response, relief & recovery, prevention & mitigation in respect of disaster. * One Disaster Management Cell should be formed, headed by nominated Nodal Officer with other trained personals. This Cell may share its knowledges, experiences, views, activities to the other members for strengthening of Departmental manpower capacity. * A locality wise Committee is to be formed with the help of Municipality Board, Town & Country Planning Department of course with civil administration for RVS (Repaid Visual Screening) tests for vulnerable structures weekly or monthly as per the volume of tusk. * It should be mandatory to take the opportunity of training provided by DDMA or SDMA in phase manner. * Acts and rules the Department implements :- Members should have the knowledge of departmental Acts & rules by periodic seminar / interact between members. * Annual Plan Budget of the Department :- The department should have a annual budget provision for training, seminar etc. even for retrofitting of vulnerable structures as a measure of prevention & mitigation also fund for relief, recovery & for post disaster activities. * Schemes & Programmes being implemented by the department :- ASDMA has conducted training programme to prepare departmental disaster management plan. District wise mock-drill has been conducted by DDMA. Training programmee regarding construction of safe buildings, restoration & retrofitting of vulnerable building, construction of green buildings has been conducted by PWD (Bldg) from 29th June to 1st July at Guwahati. * History of Disaster of the District forced by the department :- Sl.

* Provision of fund during last three years for responding to any of the disaster :- Any type of disaster is unprecedental for which a provision of fund / budget should be kept ready. This is completely related to the government policy. Disaster occur in every year in different districts of Assam & the government of Assam is facing the same time & meeting up the same. * Executive instructions or circulars issued to cope with disasters :- Executive instructions or circulars are being circulated by the concerned authorities like DDMA, SDMA & are necessary for carry out various disaster management plan work which have also techno-legal importance. The circulars as stated are to be distributed to all concerns (executing agencies) for their smooth operation. Every district has DDMA, thorough which necessary executive instructions or circulars are being issued time to time. * Details of Mock drills or special programmes organized :- Mock-drills as regard to disaster should be organized and to be carried out by the trained up personal in order to impart awareness to the people in general & the workers of different department in particular. DDMA ought to conduct mock-drill yearly or half yearly in this regard to keep the disaster management workers fit & readiness all time as disaster is unprecedental. * Committees or user groups formed at the village / grass roof level :- To form or to construct a committees or user groups at village/grass root level is of dare necessary in order to make themselves aware of the consequences due to impact of disaster. These committees or groups are to be brought under DDMA to facilitate themselves under disaster management training so that later they can share their experiences, training to the villagers at grass root level. The Committee / groups thus from may be communicated periodically i.e. should be kept in touch to get different datas related to pre-disaster / post disaster viz Communication, connectivity & impact of disaster. * Training programmees organized for the departmental staffs with special reference to preparedness for disaster management :- The members of DDMA should have sufficient knowledge of disaster. They should be well trained. Untrained workers / members are vulnerable. Hence training programmes are must, which leads to increase the capacity building of the trainees with adequate knowledge of disaster management work plan. The government is found to organize such type of training programmes periodically in phase manner. In this year ASDMA has organized successfully a three days training programme with effect from 20th May/2015 to 22th May’2015 at Don-Bosco School, Guwahati.

* Awareness generation programmes organized :- As cachar belongs in Zone-V of the earth quake prone area periodical awareness generation programmes are very essential to be organized to make the all individual knowledgeable about the

65 impact of disasters & how to minimize the same by preparedness, prevention & mitigation. Definitely it will take a long time, but we should remember the proverb “Rome was not built in a day”. * Recharge or impact assessment evaluation studies conducted :- DDMA periodically conducting meeting/awareness regarding impact of disaster, preparedness, prevention & mitigation, response, relief, recovery in presence of all district heads & Nodal Officers of different departments in the Conference Room of Deputy Commissioner Office. In that meeting it has been emphasized to prepare department wise Disaster Management Plan as per practicable as possible. In that meeting / training it has been emphasized over the Disaster Created by human. (i) Buildings bridges or any other structures constructed without proper plan & design. (ii) Using unspecified constructional materials. (iii) Without maintaining proper building bye laws.

To reduce Risk factor of disaster following procedure to be followed :- (a) Thorough survey and history of the locality to be studied viz :- (i) Whether the locality is landslide prone area or not, (ii) Whether there is a possibility of liquefaction in the sub- soil or not etc. (b) Sub-Soil Investigation must be carried out & according foundation of the structure is to be provided. (c) Building bye low to be strictly followed. (d) Various laboratory tests for structural materials to be conducted in phase manner. (e) Trained persons to be engaged for constructional work. (f) Skilled laborers should be engaged. (g) Before starting of work a seminar to be conducted at site camp with all the persons engaged for the work. (h) Disaster Management act 2005 to be strictly followed & work should be carried out as per proper plan, drawings & designs as per I.S. code of practice.

* Objective of Disaster Management Plan :- Disaster Management plan is a living document prepared on the basis of departmental activities to be conducted for pre-disaster (i.e. preparedness, prevention & mitigation), during disaster & for post disaster i.e. Rescue, recovery, relief & rehabilitation as per practicable as possible. * Impact of Disaster :- Disaster are two types. (i) Natural disaster. (ii) Man-Made disaster. Every natural disaster is likely to have some direct or indirect impact on every department, but the way a particular natural disaster impacts a department varies from department to department. For instance, flood will have a lot of direct impact on Agriculture and Animal Husbandry department. On the contrary, earth quake will have a disastrous impact on Industry, Power department, PW (Road and Building) Department in the form of collapse of structures (Industries, buildings & bridges) Power installation, threat of large scale discharge of chemicals & gases, break down of power supply, stoppage of production of goods leading to scarcity, Disruption of Communication & information due to collapse of bridges, transmission towers etc. Similarly, every department will have a different kind of encounter with man-made disasters. Some of the man-made disaster may be the direct offshoot of the mismanagement of environmental and safety concerns by the department & it may have to directly deal with the consequences of some of the disasters. For instance, indiscriminate and unscientific use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides by the Agriculture & Soil Conservation Department is a result of degradation of soil health, reduced productivity contamination of water bodies due to run off from nearby fields, threat to the local flora and fauna harmful effect on human health. Another instance is the unscientific construction of structures viz buildings, bridges, without proper planning & designing, using unspecified materials, ignorance of knowledge of proper use of materials, without proper Sub-Soil-Investigation, poor enforcement of zoning regulations and building bye laws leading to increase vulnerability to earth quake and is a result of sudden collapse of structures.

Hence, it is incumbent on every department to understand two things :- (i) How it is contributing to the onset or severity of the disaster, natural or man-made.

(ii) What are the multifarious direct or indirect challenges it has to face once the disaster strikes? In view of the above, it necessary to find out the vulnerable buildings. Following are the few Govt. important buildings on which N-D test is to be executed.

1. Deputy Commissioner’s Office at Silchar. 2. Unnayan Bhawan Building at Silchar (2-storied RCC Building). 3. Circuit House at Silchar. 4. Addl. Circuit House at Silchar (2-storied RCC Building). 5. New Addl. Circuit House at Silchar (2-storied RCC Building). 6. Judicial Court Building at Silchar. 7. Sub-Register Office at Silchar. 8. New Treasury Building at Silchar. 9. Election Office Building at Silchar. 10. District Library Building at Silchar. 11. District Elementary Education Office Building at Silchar (2-storied RCC Building). 12. Two Storied OPD Building at Civil Hospital, Silchar. 13. Mechanical Engineering Building at Silchar Polytechnic, Meherpur, Silchar.

* Planning for preparedness, prevention and mitigation :- Before going to preparedness prevention mitigation, Hazard and vulnerability analysis is required.

Since all the disaster cannot be prevented but we need to plan for what we should do to reduce the impact of disaster specially for the man-made disaster.

* Preparedness Plan :- All the team members of departmental disaster management plan should be well trained for basic course in a time bound manner. The untrained members are vulnerable. The technical staffs should attend various departmental training to have sufficient knowledge about seismic resistant structure. Emphasize should be given on periodic seminar over procedure to construct seismic resistant structure by sharing of knowledge among the technical members. One departmental training has already been conducted from 29th June/15 to 1st July/15 at Guwahati.

* Prevention and Mitigation:- To reduce the impact of disaster prevention and mitigation can be divided in two parts. (i) For the buildings under Construction or to be constructed. (ii) For the buildings already constructed. PART – I For the building under construction or to be constructed, following procedure can be adopted while constructing new buildings. 1. Latest building codes & practices to be followed to ensure safety of built environment. 2. While planning open space to be maintained. 3. Effective storm & waste water management to be considered. 4. Effective solid waste management to be considered. 5. Fire & power safety norm to be strictly enforced. 6. Green building concept to be enforced. Green building can be defined as a building which affect the environment to the minimum extend & comfortness to the maximum extend as it uses less water, optimizes energy efficiency, conserves natural resources, generate less waste and provides healthier spaces pollution free air for occupants, as compared to a conventional building. The green building uses processes that are environmentally responsible and resource efficient throughout a buildings life cycle, from planning to design, construction, operation, maintenance, renovation and demolition. Further, top soil removal and preservation shall be mandatory for development projects larger than 100 hectares. Top soil shall be stripped to a depth of 200mm from the area proposed to occupied by buildings, roads, pave areas & external services. Top soil shall be stockpiled to a height of 400mm in pre-designated areas for preservation & shall be reapplied to site during plantation of the proposed vegetation. Measures should be applied to control erosion of preserved top soil. Further some common things to be opted while constructing new building. (a) Sub-Soil-Investigation for RCC Building is a must. On the basis of Sub-Soil-Investigation report, type of foundation is to be recommended. (b) Mullion /RCC stiffener to be provided from plinth beam/grade beam if c/c spacing of columns is more than 3.65 mtr. (c) Portruding rod from column to be provided @ 450mm c/c distance for bonding of wall with column. (d) 50mm thick RCC coring of M20 to be provided all round the openings as per detail drawing. (e) Torsional reinforcement to be provided at the four corner of each panel of RCC slab. (f) Stirrups should be provided at the junction of beam & column. 68

(g) Avoid cantilevered beam & slab if possible. (h) Share beams are to be provided at ground floor if kept for car parking. (i) Avoid to provide RCC over head tank over stair case if possible. (j) Avoid false ceiling & false partition if possible. (k) Floor area of 1st floor & above should not be more than ground floor area. (l) At the same time awareness/training programmee for safe construction practices for community/house owners may need to introduced. (m) On safe construction, capacity of Engineers, masons, Panchayeti Raj institution (PRIs) & officials of other department may need to be built by seminars.

PART-II Building already constructed :- To reduce the impact of disaster locality wise list of vulnerable building/structures to be prepared as per RVS (Rapid visual screening) test. RVS has different grade for different type of building as follows :- (i) For RCC Building. Grade Type of damage Remarks Grade-1 Negligible to slight damage (No structural damage, slight non structural damage). Restoration Fine cracks over plaster over frame members in walls at the base. Fine cracks in partition &infill’s. Grade-2 Moderate damage (Slight structural damage, moderate non structural damage). Creaks in columns & beams of frames & structural walls. Creaks in Restoration partition & infill walls, fall of brittle cladding & plaster. Falling mortar from the joints of wall panels. Grade-3 Substantial to heavy damage (Moderate structural damage, heavy constructional damage) Crakes in column & beams column joints of frame at base & at joints Restoration & of coupled walls. Retrofitting Spelling of concrete cover, bulking of steel rods. Large cracks in partition & in fill walls. Failure of individual in fill panels. Grade-4 Very heavy damage (heavy structural damage, very heavy non structural damage. Demolition or Large crakes in structural damages with compression failure of Extensive concrete & fracture of rebar’s bond failure of beams, reinforcement restoration & bars tilting of column. retrofitting Collapse of few columns or a single upper floor.

Masonry Buildings Grade-1 Negligible to slight damage (No structural damage, slight non structural damages). Hair line cracks. Restoration Fall of small pieces of plaster. Fall of loose stones from upper parts of buildings in very few cases. Grade-2 Moderate damage (slight structural damage, moderate non structural damage). Creaks in many walls. Restoration Fall of large pieces of plaster. Partial collapse of smoke chimneys on roof. Grade-3 Substantial to heavy damage (Moderate structural damage, heavy non-structural damage). Restoration & Large & extensive crakes in most walls, roof tiles detach. Retrofitting Chimney fracture of roof line. Failure of individual non-structural elements. Grade-4 Very heavy damage (heavy structural damage, very heavy non- Reconstruction, structural damage. Restoration & Serious failure of walls. Retrofitting Inner walls collapse.

Partial structural failure of roof & floors. Grade-5 Destruction (Very heavy structural damage). Debris removal & Total or near total collages of Bldg. Reconstruction

Following steps to be followed :- (a) One district level cell to be framed with the following members. 1. Chief Executive Officer, District Disaster Management Authority. 2. Executive Engineer, PWD, Building Division, Silchar. 3. Executive Officer, Municipal Board. 4. Executive Engineer, Town & Country Planning. 5. Expertised Civil Engineer from NIT.

(Note:- This type of Cell has already framed in this district).

(b) This cell with the help of other trained subordinate Engineers will conduct RVS tests of different buildings locality wise. (c) On the basis of RVS test report grade of vulnerable buildings will be identified. (d) Building under Grade-1 & Grade-2 will under go directly for restoration in the manner of repair. (e) Building under Grade-3 & Grade-4 will face N.D. test etc. (f) On the basis of final test report of ND tests, the building under Grade-3 will be retrofitted to make the building safe. But the buildings under Grade-4 may be allowed for Demolition or extensive retrofitting.

Now once the vulnerable buildings are being repaired, restored & retrofitted or demolished the risk factor of Hazard reduced as follows.

R = H.V C Where :- R is risk factor. H is Hazard (Constant). V is vulnerability. C is capacity.

By repairing, restoring, retrofitting capacity of building will be increased and at the same time vulnerability will also be reduced. Hence Risk factor will be automatically reduced & thereby impact of disaster can be reduced. Relief &Response :- Since all disaster cannot be prevented we need to plan for what we should do once the disaster has streak. Response :- The department is having its own departments structure and SOP (Standard operation process), which enlight the responsibility of all members including contractors. After happening of any disaster, there will be interaction & information exchanging between the Chief Executive Officer, District Disaster Management Authority and the Executive Engineer, PWD, Building Division, Silchar. In absence of Executive Engineer, Nodal Officer will be communicated. After that, action will be started as per SOP of the department. Relief &Rescue :- Following points should be kept in mind prior to any disaster as premonition of impending danger. For Flood :- * Dissemination of early warning. * After getting early warning the inventory of search & rescue equipment will be cheeked & accordingly contractors are to informed for their readiness.

* Stock of food, fodder, medicine etc. will be kept ready by the respective department. * Mapping out the affected area & communication plan to the affected area in the event of description of road network will be chalked out by the respective department. * Reaching out to maroon area plan also will be chalked out by the respective department. They may take the help of users group formed at village/grass roof level. * Evacuation plan also to be framed with the help of district administration.

* Arrangement at evacuation/relief center:- As per the flood situation, location of relief camp will be selected depending upon the communication plan & connectivity & accordingly resources will be mobilized to construct temporary sheds for relief camp with necessary sanitary facilities. * To supply Drinking water & sanitary facilities responsibility may be initiated from PHE department. * To maintain, healthy, hygienic atmosphere responsibility may be initiated from Health Department. * Damage assessment etc. will be conducted by the different department as per their jurisdiction after receding of flood & report compliance. For earth quake :- * No early warning. * Inventory of search & rescue machineries should be checked & kept readiness periodically. Stock of food, fodder, medicine etc. should be kept readiness by the respective departments. Mapping out affected area and communication plan & reaching out to affected areas are to be chalked out with the help of GPS map, user groups of village / grass root level by the respective department to mobilization of resources. * The injured people should be shifted to a near by health centre/Hospital. The location of Health Centre can be even identified by GIS map or by user group of village. * Arrangements of relief camp :- Temporary structure / shed will be constructed in war foot manner with the help of civil administration. * Maintaining hygienic & healthy atmosphere & supply of drinking water & sanitary facilities will be done by the respective department. * Assessment of damage will be done by the respective department as per respective jurisdiction. * In case of industrial disaster sufficient musk is to be supplied. Hence in industrial area arrangement of musk to be kept readiness. * The locality people may be requested to lay down even they may be shifted to near by low lying area like, river channel, channel of Khals etc. Recovery &Rehabilitation :- When we talk of rehabilitation it implies two things :- One the making good of the losses people, livestock and the ecosystem have suffered, and secondly, the safeguards to be put in place to prevent the likelihood of these losses in the event of a similar kind of disaster. Recovery &Rehabilitation programmee will depend on the extends of disaster – Viz,

(a) Low Impact disaster (Level-1). (b) Medium Impact disaster (Level-2). (c) High Impact disaster (Level-3).

State Assistance Level-1

Level-2

Central Assistance Level-3

Level – 1 & Level – 2 disaster can be met up by state assistance in regard of recovery & rehabilitation & Level – 3 disaster can be met up with the help of centre assistance in regard of recovery & rehabilitation. Type of Rehabilitation :- (i) Short term Rehabilitation. (ii) Long term Rehabilitation. For short term Rehabilitation :- This is a temporary nature of rehabilitation. The disaster affected people are to be rehabilitated immediately after disaster.

Steps to be followed :-

* GIS map/user group of village will indicate the open safe place high land accessible to the nearby town or city. * After thorough survey plan & estimate for temporary shelter camp with necessary water supply, sanitary, health care facilities to be framed in war foot manner. * As per sanction of the plan & estimate, temporary shelter camp will be constructed in war foot manner observing necessary rules ®ulations. * Further due to impact of disaster different structures will be damaged which will be restored as follows :- (i) RVS will conducted locality wise. (ii) As per RVS grade of damage will be identified. (iii) The building under grade-I (minor repair) will be restored with local fund. (iv) Estimate for building under Grade-2, 3 will be prepared for restoration & retro fitting & will be restored as per rules & regulations. (v) The building under Grade-4 for RCC & Grade-5 for Masonry will be demolished.

Long term Rehabilitation :- While planning for long term rehabilitation following points may be considered. (i) Any rehabilitation effort has to be based on the felt needs of the people. (ii) Services should be easily accessible. (iii) Organizations taking up the programmee must enhance its own capacity. APWD is the competent organization for the same. (iv) Processes should as far as possible be automated. (v) Long term tracking of the impact of rehabilitation support is necessary. (vi) There should be a well-though-out experience-based plan to up scale the services example green building concept. In view of the above, Assam P.W.D. is a competent organization to fulfill the above. Capacity-building for Disaster Management :- Introduction :- Each department may have departmental disaster management structure of its own. Once this structure forms it needs to increase its capacity. “On the mountain of truth you can never climb in vain, either you will reach a point higher up today or you will be training your power so that you will be able to climb higher tomorrow – Friedrich Nietzsche. The best training programme in the world is absolutely worthless without the will to execute it properly, consistently and with intensity.

For capacity building it needs formation of core competencies of each department. This core competencies should have the following knowledge’s. - Understanding of different kinds of disaster. - Knowledge of laws & rules in regard to Disaster Management. - Understanding the multi-sectoral nature of the Disaster Management & importance of co-ordination and convergence. - Understating of the crucial role of the community and households. - Appreciation of the need of regular knowledge up-gradation and sharing. Absence of competency mapping for various categories of employees is, therefore, the biggest obstacle in the way of drawing up of an effective capacity – building programmee.

* To prepare a good capacity building programme. * Long term or short term training programme is must for which. (i) Selection of Institutions. (ii) Resource persons who are competent enough and have the training skill. (iii) Financial Back-up. (iv) Nodal persons in every department at state and district level. (v) Policy to reward employees who excel in acquiring training skills. (vi) Organizing Review meetings with dedicated time for discussion on important issues. (vii) Creating On-site support team at State & District levels that visit the subordinate offices & share knowledge on important themes. (viii) Creating on-line knowledge sharing platform like blogsites, solution exchange groups etc. (ix) Using video conferences on selected themes on fixed days of the month.

Apart from these measures, development of case studies & documentaries on good practices also helps in creating an environment conducive to learning and knowledge- sharing. Equally important is to know that capacity building is basically about changing the work culture of our organizations. Citizen engagement :- As Cachar district belong in zone-V earth quake prone area & also flood prone area citizen engagement plan very essential as follows :- * Periodical awareness generation programme to be organized locality wise to share the knowledge of impact of disaster & how to minimize the same by preparedness, prevention & mitigation, Response, relief & rehabilitation in respect of the disasters & area likely to be affected. * To form or to construct Committees or user groups are to be brought under DDMA for Training, Mock-drills etc. * Seminars on construction of safe building/structure are to be arranged in each committee or group to enable them to construct there own building or buildings in their own locality. * For post disaster these committees or groups may help the administration in multi directive ways viz, information’s, connectivity, rescue, relief operation etc. The active and informed citizen can make a huge difference in management of disasters. For instance, the grass-roof level functionaries i.e. Gaon Burah can play an important role in preserving the natural resources, and eco-systems of the villages. They are in-charge of both by keeping a close vigil on the use and exploitation of this resources, and creating awareness among the community about the need to preserve them regarding measures to be taken to prevent and mitigate disasters (Prevention of man-made disaster). Standard operating procedure (SOP) :- Title :- Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) of Silchar Building Division, PWD, Silchar for Departmental Disaster Management Plan. Purpose :- Response, relief, rehabilitation to restore normal condition. Scope :- There should be a proper planning to handle post disaster situation. To plan for departmental activities during & after disaster with a proper guideline. Task description :- The departmental structure of the disaster activities will be as follows :- C.E.O.

The Procedure can be followed as follow (Personal Roles) :- 1) After any incident there will be interaction & information exchanging between the CEO, DDMA and the Executive Engineer, PWD, Silchar Building Division, Silchar take place. In absence of Executive Engineer, PWD, Silchar Building Division, Silchar. Nodal Officer will be communicated. 2) The emergency meeting in the Divisional Office will take place among the key persons namely, the Executive Engineer, Nodal Officer, Asstt. Executive Engineers, PWD, & Asstt. Executive Engineer (T/C), PWD, Silchar Building Division, Silchar. 3) As per extent of disaster, the teams are to move the sites under the guidance of the Executive Engineer, PWD, Silchar Building Division, Silchar & there after team leader will exercise his duty along with his supporting staffs. Executive Engineer, PWD, Silchar Building Division, Silchar & Nodal Officer will monitor.

Materials, Equipments &resources :- The contractors whose addresses and contact nos. along with their equipments list of which are already recorded in the Annexure, should be engaged after maintaining official formalities during / after disaster. Role of the persons outside the department :- The persons other than department i.e. community persons should be contacted before any disaster. During any disaster when other mode of communication fails the community based information will enhance us the extent of losses due to disaster. Therefore, the community groups whose name & addresses are already recorded in the DM Plan should be contacted after occurrence of any disaster for their help. Action Points with time sequencing :- All the persons involved in the work plan should work within a specific time limit so that they can do their job efficiently. For this, during relief & rehabitation after any disaster rotation of time schedule may be prepared for smooth functioning of the task. Reference to associated SOP :- Training held on Disaster Management Plan from 20th May’2015 to 22nd May’2015 at Guwahati. Quality check & oversight mechanism :- All the members of the work plan should take care to deliver their duties with their best effort and take care of quality control and the Nodal Officer should take care of quality check. Further all the departmental activity will be conducted as per proper guideline of disaster management & as per law, rules & regulations.

Conclusion :- The Disaster Management Plan is a living document. The Disaster Management Plan should be improved and updated periodically. As the staffs of our department are servicing transferable job, there is always a possibility of transfer of disaster team member as per Govt. rules. But the post remain same & which will be occupied by his reliever. So there should be always chance of up-gradation of Disaster Management Plan by sharing of new knowledge’s from new comers. Time will be required to prepare a concrete departmental Disaster Management Plan with technically trained member as per structure of the Disaster Management Plan, but we will be hope fully achieving the goal. One can remember the proverb “Rome was not built in a day”.

PWD (NH DIVISION)

INTRODUCTION: The CacharDistrict is situated in the southern part of Assam in the Northeast of India. This district is an island locked and dependant on surface communication through Meghalaya which sometimes get disrupted due to flood and landslide. The Cachar district is vulnerable to natural disasters like Floods, Earth quakes, Cyclones etc, which needs our National Highway Division to take different measures in collaboration with the District Administration to plan to reduce or restrict loss of human life and property. The departmental disaster management can be viewed as a series of phases including Preparedness, Response, Relief, Recovery and Prevention & Mitigation. The actual day to day functional responsibility of the action lies with the Executive Engineer who controls the sub-ordinate Officers/Staffs of the department working with Head Quarter at Silchar. In rainy season, due to heavy rain in this area, flood becomes a seasonal phenomenon as some part of the district get affected every year. Moreover, Cachar along with the whole north eastern part of India falls in the most dangerous zone –V of the earth quake prone zones. So, occurrence of major earth quakes cannot be ruled out and requires preparedness for the same. Several storms also hit every year causing damages to houses and crops. The infrastructures of NHs also get damaged in some severe occasions of this kind of disaster. This PWD NH Division has taken various steps for preparedness for the aforesaid disaster. Climate and Rainfall:- The climate of the district is very humid due to heavy rain and high atmospheric temperature. June and July are the months with highest rainfall. Generally the period from May end to October is considered as flood season. Temperature:- The temperature in the region generally increases from end of February and reaches highest point during June & July. January is the coldest month of the year. The air is highly humid throughout the year accompanied with light wind. Sometimes cyclonic storm with heavy rain hits the area due to the atmospheric depressions from the bay of Bengal during the monsoon and post monsoon period. Thunder storm occur during the period from march to May. Fog occurs in the winter months. The complex physical feature of the district also contributes a great to the occurrence of flood. Object of the department as regards to the Disaster management:- (i) To prevent & limit the damage to life and property. (ii) To minimize human suffering and accelerate recovery. (iii) To generate general awareness among the people against the disasters like Flood, Earth quake, Landslide etc. In collaboration with the District Administration.

Disaster Probability

Sl. No. Type of Disaster Time of occurrence Probable damage to Deptt. Infrastructures 1 Flood April to September Erosion & Damages to Road including Drainage structures

2 Earth Quake January to December Chances of damages to Bridge & Drainage Structures and road embankment 3 Landslide April to September Blockade of road communication at vulnerable stretches

4 Storm March to June Damage of Road embankment and drainage Structures

5 River Erosion April to September Damages to bridges and development of breaches / sinking of embankment at vulnerable stretches.

Main Tasks of the department and possibilities of integration of related disaster management aspects in these:-

Pre- Disaster Activities :- This includes imparting training to the departmental staffs against the occurrence of disaster and take remedial measures to minimize the loss of damages to NH infrastructures.. Also adopting construction of bridges and drainage structures as per BIS and Standard Codes of practices and guidelines considering all earth-quake resistance measures.

During Disaster :- To help the people who are affected by disaster and to arrange the rescue machineries for restoration of departmental services. Post Disaster :- To reconstruct the Highway structures which are completely damaged and also to strengthen those which are moderately damaged.

LABOURERS

Phase-wise description of departmental Activities (a)Pre Disaster:-

1. Preparedness Plan:- At first the departmental staffs should be trained for basic course in a time bound manner. The staffs of our division including the staffs of our sub-divisions should be trained for basic course of disaster management authority. The Engineers staffs should be trained for building earthquake resistant structure. For the purpose the faculty members of national institute of Technology, Silchar may be contacted for giving lesson regarding the same. Also the contractors & mesons should be trained for disaster activities with the help of DDMA as they are directly linked with constructions work.

2. Prevention & Mitigation Plan:- For preventing the loses due to Earth Quake, a RVA (Rapid Visual Assessment) should be done for the bridges constructed by the department. In few cases, necessary NDT should be carried out with the help of DDMA and expertise & machineries from NIT, Silchar. Depending upon the RVS & ND Tests to reduce the vulnerability & thereby increasing capacity building. As per the formula HV/C= R. Where, H = Hazard. V= Vulnerability. C= Capacity. R = Risk. From the above formula R = H.V/C

It is clearly seen that for a particular hazard, risk is directly proportional to vulenerability & Risk is inversely propotional to capacity. So, it can be noticed that if we increase the capacity of the department we can reduce the risk thus reducing the vulnerability of a structure. We should visit periodically to the 80 different bridges and RVA should be done & ND tests should also be done where necessary. The different structures should be tested for vulnerability from time to time and their vulnerability status should be recorded as per RVS and ND tests. And also technical staffs should be trained for capacity building. Also equipments & machineries of the contractors working under our departments should be recorded and & they should be recorded with their names & contact nos.

(b)During Disaster:-

The first object of the department during disaster is dissemination of message from the divisional office to the sub-divisional office and trigger the mechanism of response. The construction of the incident Response Teams in which Chairman of IRT will be the Executive Engineer of the department. Under his control Subordinate officers (AEEs,AEs,JEs etc) & staffs will be operating during disaster rescue operation & there will be one Nodal Officer.

(c)Post Disaster:-

After the occurrence of the disaster like earth quake, floods, etc., it is very much essential to assess the loss of life & properties. And also the cause of damage due to disaster is to be investigated. The data which are left behind by the occurrence of such disaster should be collected and kept for future reference to help the people better in case of occurrence of such disaster in future. The knowledge collected by the occurrence of disaster can be used for future preparation and to mitigation of the losses due to disaster. Also the structures which are damaged badly should be re-constructed and the service should be restored as early as possible.

Strengthening / Retrofitting of departmental infrastructure:- In this phase of action, the Highway structures which are constructed by the NH department and those which are undergoing construction are checked on the point of vulnerability assessment. For the purpose a team from our department, comprising of Asstt. Executive Engineers, Asstt. Engineers & Junior Engineers will be visiting the structures periodically to assess the condition. The condition of the bridges can be tested on the aspect of rapid visual screening and Non Destructive test (wherever required). If any structure is found to be vulnerable, it should be brought immediately to the notice of the higher authority.

Frame work for disaster prevention and mitigation program:- The team formed for RVS should visit the structure which are constructed previously for checking periodically the vulnerability condition of the structures. The structures which are already found as vulnerable and also their strengthening works (retrofitting works) done subsequently may be found safe after completion of retrofitting works. Also the structures which were found safe on the previous visit may be found vulnerable due to change in its load bearing capacity under changed circumstances. So a periodic visit to these bridges should be done and they should be checked for vulnerability.

Administrative & Financial arrangement:- This department is constructing National Highways and bridges through the contractors from the financial support of the Central Govt. It will inform the concerned departmental Authority about the vulnerability of the structures, if any, and to inform to their higher authority about the vulnerability condition and get financial support for retrofitting or repairing works wherever necessary. Capacity of the department to deal with the disaster:- As our department is solely dependent on contractors for construction of National Highways and bridges, the department has no machines to use during and after any disaster. But it can get a record of its registered contractors and his machines which are used in construction work. During a disaster, the contractors may be informed to supply the machines with all the official formalities. List of Machineries available with the contractor furnished below:- Sl Name of Contractor Name of Machineries & Remarks No. Equipments Binni Construction, Excavator cum loader 1 Hailakandi Road Roller Required for emergency purpose. Tripper UCN Construction Co. Pvt. Ltd Excavator cum loader 2 Nagaon, camp at Kabuganj Road Roller Required for emergency purpose. Cachar Tripper Gaps in existing capacity:- As our department depends on contractors for supplying machines & manpower, a gap always remains in the existing capacity and future capacity.

Our staffs should be trained periodically for gaining knowledge about disaster, which will increase the capacity of the people for prevention and minimizing the affects of any disaster. Thus our capacity regarding disaster can be increased, thereby decreasing the vulnerability. Departmental Standard Operating Procedures ( SOPs) (a) Before the starting of monsoon, all the rain water outlets of the National Highways structures should be cleaned so that the accumulation of water can be avoided as the accumulation of water may result in seepage into the structure and subsequently damage the same. (b) All the drains should be cleaned for quick disposal of around the National Highways before the rainy season for avoiding damage the pavement and the sub-grade. (c) Annuals maintenance and repairs to the National Highways structure should be done before the starting of the monsoon. (d) Regular checking of the bridge and culvert structures and maintenance works thereon should be done to avoid any mishap during disasters.

To oversee the Disaster Management activities, in the event of flood or any other disaster, the Department of Soil Conservation, Cachar District has been divided into 3 (three) Zones headed by the Range Officer / Centre Officer as Zonal Officer for each Zone. The Zonal Officers will be responsible for coordinating with the field level officials (Secretary of MWS Committees) at Village level, for materials and resources mobilization under each Zone. The Divisional Officer, Cachar will co-ordinate with all the Zones and liaise the Deputy Commissioner, Cachar at the time of disaster. The Zonal Officers will prepare map of their respective Zone showing vulnerable areas. One copy of the map is to be submitted to DC’s office and one copy to be retained with Zonal Officers for appraisal and guidance of the concerned officials in case of emergency. During emergency, all Zonal Officers shall sent a report to the Divisional Soil Conservation Officer (HOD) at the end of the each day indicating area affected, location where the inputs to be supplied, total affected farm families in case of flood etc.

Prevention, Mitigation,Preparedness Plan Flood Mitigation: Flood mitigation refers to the measures aimed at prevention and preparedness. It reduces the actual or probable impact of floods on the people and their environment. Floods in Cachar district are inevitable, considering the topography and the river system. What is required is a system of adjustment with floods, so that the people experience minimum of disruption and damages. The objective of flood mitigation is to control changes in the volume of run-off, peak stage of the flood, time of rise and duration of floodwaters, and location of flooding.

The main causes of floods in Cachar District are:  Obstruction in drainage system due to congestion and causes submergence in the low lying crops area.  Increase in siltation in riverbeds due to erosion in the catchment areas, decreases the depth of the river and could not hold the volume of the precipitation.  Breaches of Embankments because of inadequate maintenance and causes sudden flood to the vast area of the crops. The mitigation measures should be oriented to take proper care of these problems and thus will automatically reduce the impact of flood in the district. The various measures adopted for flood mitigation may be categorized in two groups structural and non-structural. Structural: -  Maintenance of drainage channel.  Maintenance of embankment.  Retrofitting of weak structures.  Maintenance of Water Harvesting Structures.

Non – Structural: -  Regulation of land use pattern.  Plantation in the catchment area to check soil erosion.  Awareness generation & training.  Forecasting & warning.

Preparedness –  Clean the drainage channels before the monsoon, so that flood water can flow freely.  Maintain all the constructed bundh, so that the people can use the bundh as footpath during disaster. 85

 Maintain green cover to reduce soil erosion.  Maintain R. T. projects to avoid river erosion.  Organize awareness campaign to mitigate soil erosion.

MAN POWER : - List of employees at Annexure-I RESEARCH AND / TRAINING FACILITIES :- The Water resources department has no any institution/ organization to study or conduct research disaster . However the department has on River Research station to study the river behavior , bed materials of river and collection of hydrological data in a scientific way to find out the causes of problems and postulate the remedial measures in future. If the state disaster authority desires to impart training that could be done in a convergent way either in and abroad. ACTS AND RULES THE DEPARTMENT IMPLEMENTS :- There is no separate acts and Rule for the department, all acts are of the department are within the purview of Assam PWD rules and Assam Financial Rules. However there was an act in force in the name Assam E&D Acts-1952. Which generally governs the land acquisition and other related policy matter. ANNUAL PLAN BUDGET OF THE DEPARTMENT :- This Division has no allocation of extra budget for disaster management to launch awareness program like mock drill , procurement of modern tools and plant etc to combat with the disaster . SCHEMES AND PROGRAMME BEING IMPLEMENTED BY THE DEPARTMENT :- The department is mainly dealing with the problems of erosion, sloughening , overtopping of embankment etc for which the following measures are generally adopted :- i) Anti-erosion measures like boulder revetment of bank / construction of boulder apron / launching of RCC porcupine etc at the erosion zones of river bank. ii) Raising and strengthening of the weak and inadequate embankment. iii) Improvement of drainage channel to remove the water logging by quick drainage of accumulated water by construction or sluices / sluices for additional opening etc. iv) River training works for diversion of flow and to invite siltation etc.

HISTORY OF DISASTER FACED BY THE DEAPRTMENT :- The following significant disaster like flood havoc, earth quake, cyclone etc. and consequences experienced by the department (flood control structures) are briefly tabulated below :-

PLANNING TO COUP WITH THE AREAS LIKELY TO BE IMPACTED To cope with the area likely to be impacted the following 4 (four) major aspects to be deal with carefully for Disaster Management : 1. Prevision and mitigation. 2. Response. 3. Relief. 4. Rehabilitation. Water Resources Department primarily deal with the prevention and mitigation of flood havoc which is briefly tabulated below - Sl. Area likely to Measures of prevention/remedial Field of activities/intervention No. be impacted measures 1 Damaged to Identification of vulnerable reaches of Measures (both temporary and infrastructures embankment/weak and partially permanent) are advanced as per damaged sluice culvert etc. and availability of fund from the proposal sent the remedial measures sources. submitted to the appropriative Authority. 2 Connectivity Index Map indicating the layout of the In case of disruption of road and structures. Structures along with the connectivity besides the other accessibility in road connectivity. Before onset of flood requirement the Department the affected the Department make necessary submit the contingency plan for area arrangement to have a reserve stock every year in which requisition for flood fighting materials of its own for necessary Motor Boats and designated camp/sites. help from the Police Administration is made. So that in case of emergency or any short fall of flood fighting materials can be sent to the affected area. RESPONSE :

In case of occurrence of any eventuality the matter will be brought immediately under the notice of DDMA as well as the State Level Control Room from the Divisional Control Room (Flood Cell). The Water Resources Department will response immediately in any convergent activities to cope up with the Disaster on receiving the direction from the District Authority as well as DDMA. RELIEF : Civil relief falls beyond the purview of the Water Resources Department. REHABILITATION : Rehabilitation may be classified as two categories viz. temporary and permanent : 1. Temporary Rehabilitation is generally provided to the affected people during occurrence of Disaster and till permanent rehabilitation is arranged. It is observed that the affected people take shelter on the nearby embankment/high elevated places like tilla etc. To provide adequate shelter / camp for the affected people some location of low-lying areas which become easy prey to flood havoc are to be identified and raised platform to be constructed and in parallel necessary arrangement for requisite food, drinking water, medicine and fodder etc. These activities does not fall under the purview of Water Resources Department. 2. Permanent Rehabilitation usually dwelling houses of revirine people either get damaged or washed away by the flood and in that case permanent rehabilitations require for those affected people which is generally arranged by the Civil Administration. CAPACITY BUILDING OF DEPARTMENTAL FUNCTIONARIES : The Water Resources Department sanctioned fund against the specific scheme and implement the project through contractors. Thus Department receives any extra fund to procure tools and plants requires to prevent or to provide necessary support to mitigate the Disaster. The Department may impart training to its personal with the help of resources person as the Department has no separate Institution to train its functionaries. CITIZEN ENGAGEMENT : The W. R. Department will participate and will extend all possible co-operation for any convergence campaign to create awareness regarding disaster among the citizens and to make the people familiar with the system of working, use of tools and technique to mitigate the impact of disaster. SOP OF W. R. DEPARTMENT : Every Department has its own standard operating procedure as per their necessity as per their line of action and thus the Water Resources Department has its own SOP which brief below : Water Resources Division of Cachar District is mainly concern to prevent and mitigate the problem of flood havoc. The functions of different officials of the W. R. Division is specifically distributed in case of any disaster. A flow chart of different functionaries of the Division is as –

Specific duties allotted to the officials : 1. Executive Engineer : Overall incharge of the Division and instructs and issues instructions to follow up action in case of any eventuality. He transmits all relevant information regarding any eventuality to all concerns. Though the control room is operated by the AEE (TC) but overall monitoring is done by the Executive Engineer for timely response as the time play as an important role in the field Disaster Management. 2. Asstt. Executive Engineer (TC) : Is the In-charge of Divisional Flood Cell/Control Room and during the flood period control room remain operative from 15th May to 15th October. In control room hourly water level of different river from different gauge station are recorded along with the daily rain fall. All information from the Sub-Divisional level (Sub-Divisional Control Room) are also collected by the Divisional Control Room. The considering the gravity of the situation the Executive Engineer alerts all field staffs spread through the District. Here corresponding danger level of all river is an Index of flood warning. On the basis of data collected from the gauge stations located at the extreme up stream of the river at, an arbitrary conclusion can be drawn flood forecasting and accordingly a message regarding pre-flood alertness is conveyed to all concerns through W. T. message. 3. Asstt. Executive Engineer (working Sub-Divisions) : During flood Asstt. Executive Engineer of a working Sub-Division remain vigil on the situation and supervise & monitor the activities of field staffs and advances the necessary palliative measures against the acute vulnerability to avert any eventuality with the intimation to the Executive Engineer. He provides all information related to the structures time to time to the Executive Engineer. 4. Divisional Accountant & other Ministerial Staffs : The Executive Engineer issues specific instructions to remain present in duties and not to leave head quarter during flood without prior approval. Staff of Accounts Branch and Other Ministerial Staffs remain ready as an alternative resources.

Flood Preparedness : Since flood, earthquake and other disaster are natural calamities and hence cannot stopped but to prevent and minimize the intensity of havoc avoiding the direct confrontation with the nature. Keeping this in mind the W. R. Division take some preparation before onset of flood season in the following way- 1. Necessary arrangement is made to stack the earth, EC bags, G. I. wire, bamboos etc. at nearby places of acute vulnerable reaches. 2. The local public representative like G. P. President/Ward Member/Social Workers are requested to extend their help in case of any emergency and to provide necessary help to protect the structures. So, that occurrence of any eventuality can be averted.

CONCLUSION : It is to be mentioned here that planning for prevention and mitigation of any disaster in the District is in infant stage hence this plan of Departmental Disaster Management may be erroneous, many aspect as are yet to be covered and for which proper guidance and further training is necessary in District level.

AGRICULTURE DEPARTMENT Introduction:- Agriculture is the main occupation of the rural people of the District. However the frequent occurrence of calamities like flood, drought like situation, hailstorm etc disrupted the economic development of the people. The scope of public sector is very limited to provide employment opportunity to a large section of unemployed persons in the District. At the time of calamity, for effective operation of relief operation the necessity of human Resources are highly essential, without which nothing can be pulled on. The Cachar District is situated in the southern most part of the Assam with a geographical area of about 377610 Ha which lies between 92024/East and 930 15/ East Longitude & 24022/North and 250 8/North Latitude and Altitude is36.5 MSL(Mean Sea Level).It is bounded on the north by Barail and Jayantia hill ranges which join the Meghalaya state & a part of N.C.hills , on the south by the State of Mizoram and on the east by the State of Manipur and in the west Hailakandi District and a part of Bangladesh

The entire Cachar district is surrounded on three sides by the hill ranges of Manipur, Mizoram & Meghalaya. The district is characterized by undulating topography with rugged hill terrains in between and vast plain low lands. The general elevation of the land surface ranges from 450 M to 1100. The Barak is the main river of the district and apart from that there are numerous small rivers likes Jiri, Chiri, Madhura, Jatinga, Sonai, Katakhal, Rukini and others are flowing through the centre of the plain valley of the district which flow from Dima Hasao district, Manipur and Mizoram. The Cachar District has 15 Community Development Blocks having 163 nos. of GPs,15 nos. of Anchalik Panchayat and 19 nos. of ADO circles .Cachar district has 2(two) Civil Sub-Division (Silchar& Lakhipur), 3(three) Agril. Sub-Division (Silchar, Sonai & Lakhipur), 5 (five) revenue circles (Silchar, Sonai, Udharband, Katigarah & Lakhipur), 867 nos.Revenue Villages 163 nos.of Gaon Panchayats.Total forest coverage in the district including social forestry is 138409 Ha, which is 36.65 % of the total geographical area of the district.

Capacity Building (Departmental Capacity Building Policy for Disaster Management :) CAPACITY ANALYSIS: We may consider the equation: (H X V)/C = R Where H= Hazard- a threatening event or the probability of occurrence of a potentially damaging phenomenon (e.g., an earthquake, a cyclonic storm or a large flood) within a given time period and area. V=Vulnerable- the degree of loss to a given element at risk or set of such elements resulting from the occurrence of a natural phenomenon (or manmade) of a given magnitude and expressed on a scale from 0 (no damage) to 1 (total loss). C= Capacity- Capacity has been defined as the ability of the people, organizations and society as a whole to manage their affairs successfully. R= Risk - the expected number of lives lost, persons injured, damage to property and disruption of economic activity due to a particular natural phenomenon)

If there are no hazards there will be no disaster and on the other hand if the capacity is increases the Risk is reduced. Hence, Capacity Analysis has played a vital role in the Disaster Management. Capacity Building within the Department of Agriculture a) Institutional Capacity Building: 1. District Level Disaster Management Committee Team 2 Sub- Divisional Level Disaster Management Committee Team ( Silchar Agril Sub-Div.) 3. Sub- Divisional Level Disaster Management Committee Team ( Sonai Agril Sub-Div.) 4. Sub- Divisional Level Disaster Management Committee Team (Lakhipur Agril Sub-Div.) 5. Block Level Disaster Management Committee (15 nos. in the district in each Block) 6. Village Level Disaster Management Committee Team (163 nos. of GP in the district) The name of members at different level of team with contact no. is given in Annexure I c) Capacity Development Plan: i) Periodic Training of Departmental personnel by DDMA, Cachar. Action: Nodal Officer ii) Organization of MOCK DRILL in collaboration with DDMA, Cachar to sensitize the Important of Disaster Management. Action: Nodal Officer iii) Separate agenda for discussion in the monthly Departmental meeting. Action: HOD iv) Dissemination of Disaster Management Plan to Grass Root level. The Departmental Disaster Management Plan may be disseminated through VLEW Cluster Training. Action : SDAO (all)

Citizen Engagement Plan CITIZEN ENGAGEMMENT FOR DISASTER MANAGEMENT The potential benefits of Citizen Engagement are –  Making Legitimate Decisions.  Making better policy.  Overcoming Polarization.  Reducing conflict.  Looking for common ground.  Building competent, responsible citizen.  Including minorities. 99

100

Citizen Engagement Plan:

1. Formation of Panchayat Level Disaster Management Committee = Formation of Panchayat Level Committeein 163 G.P with the involvement of PRI Members, Representatives of FMC, members from social organization. They will help in Preparedness, policy making etc related in Disaster Management.

2. Response: Panchayat Level Committeewill help damage assessment, relief &Rehabilitation etc

3. Plant Protection, Improved package of Practices : After Flood it is very difficult to reach the community due to lack of communication, in such situation the messages can be communicated by organizing public meeting preferably at a school of the locality. Here, the messages in the form of booklet can be communicated through the student.

Conclusion: - The challenge for organized agriculture lies in the preparation and implementation of its own strategies, policies and plans, as well as the participation. The planning is important from two aspects: the Output and the Process. The output of planning process will be the District Disaster Risk Management Plan. This plan will provide strategic directions for disaster risk management, define resources available in the district, and describe SOPs for emergency response. The process of planning is extremely important, because this will raise awareness of stakeholders about disaster risks and risk management. It is imperative that extensive consultations are undertaken with stakeholders for development of the plan. A plan developed without proper stakeholder consultation would not be effective and realistic. Similarly, the plan must be disseminated to all stakeholders for their information and for maintenance of interest. The list of key stakeholders in the Department of Agriculture of Cachar District, who have an important role in disaster risk management is included. A description of their functions regarding disaster risk management is also covered. A copy of the plan for the Departmental Disaster Management 2019-20 is submitted to the District Disaster Management Authority, Cacharfor its inclusion in the District Plan. 4. VLEW / GP LEVEL TEAM: The fourth level Team are formed with VLEW as Team Leader by involving PRIs, Progressive Farmers, farmers groups which will covered all the G.Ps area and it will act as the stakeholder during the time of particular Hazard. This Team will prepare G.P./VLEW level Disaster Management Plan & all such plans will be compiled in the ADO circle which will in turn Sub-Division & District level Disaster Management Plan.
