L’Algérie profonde / Actualités L’Algérie profonde Bréves du centre EL-AFFROUN : L’agence BDL suit le mouvement de grève Solidaire avec le personnel de la direction générale de Staoueli mobilisé pour une grève jusqu’au départ de son actuel PDG, l’agence d’El-Affroun suit le mouvement depuis le 30 janvier en assurant un service minimum avec la télécompensation et le traitement des chèques de cas de force majeure (maladie) ou d’urgence (voyages). En dehors de ces cas (trois, quatre clients par jour), aucun retrait n’est effectué. Quant à savoir quand l’agence reprendra son activité normale, une employée nous dira : “Nous avons commencé avec eux, nous finirons avec eux”. Un ancien employé de l’agence inaugurée par l’ancien PDG, Ammar Daoudi, évoquera, de son côté, “le respect, l’humanité et les bons traitements” que le personnel avait connus avec ce dirigeant qui avait, durant son exercice, effectué plusieurs déplacements à El-Affroun “pour s’enquérir de la santé de l’agence et des conditions de travail du personnel”. F. Seman La Protection civile de Boumerdès fait son bilan : Régression des victimes de la route Les services de la Protection civile de Boumerdès ont au cours d’un point de presse organisé jeudi dernier communiqué leur bilan de l’année écoulée où on dénombre quelque 9 757 interventions à travers la wilaya. En effet, le responsable de la communication, le capitaine Moknine Ahmed a, lors de cette rencontre, détaillé par les chiffres les nombreuses actions menées par les services de la protection s’agissant des accidents de la circulation, des différentes évacuations aux diverses incendies. Dans le courant de l’année 2010, ces mêmes services ont enregistré 902 accidents de la circulation qui ont fait 34 victimes et 926 blessés signalés sur les points noirs qui sont la RN12 au niveau de Boudouaou et Thenia et la RN5 au niveau de Souk El-Had. Quant au nombre des évacuations sanitaires, elles sont de l’ordre de 6 111 dont 2 390 secourus et où on dénombre malheureusement 109 décès. Concernant les feux de forêt, aucun n’a été signalé sauf ceux touchant les maquis qui sont au nombre de 2 et qui ont ravagés 1 hectare de blé. Pour les incendies domestiques, on en dénombre 29 alors que pour ceux appelés incendies industriels, 6 interventions ont été enregistrées et un total de 897 autres incendies divers ont été l’objet d’interventions de la part des éléments de la Protection civile des différentes unités. Si dans le bilan présenté, on constate le nombre élevé d’interventions par rapport à 2009 qui était de 9 634, les morts des accidents de la circulation a diminué, passant de 44 en 2009 à 34 en 2010. Les dernières intempéries ont, selon le même responsable, nécessité 13 interventions pour raison d’inondations diverses au niveau des localités de Khemis El-Khechna, Thenia, Ammal et Si-Mustapha. Par ailleurs, la direction de la Protection civile a entamée des stages de formation de secouristes en direction de citoyens dont l’âge varie entre 18 et 50 ans, encadrés par des médecins et des officiers de la Protection civile et dont la durée n’excède pas les 21 jours et sanctionnés par la remise d’attestations de secouristes. Quatre sessions sont prévues pour l’année dont la première a débuté le 1er février et a concerné 25 personnes. Dans le même sillage, les agents de la Protection civile bénéficient également de stages de recyclage pour les différentes mises à niveau. AZIZ B..

Bréves De Boumerdes
Bréves de Boumerdes Don de trois centres de formation destinés aux sinistrés Les sociétés étrangères Anadarko (USA) et Maerks (Danemark), spécialisées respectivement dans l’exploitation pétrolière et le transport maritime des marchandises, ont fait un don au profit des élèves sinistrés qui n’ont pas pu poursuivre leur cycle scolaire normalement, en implantant au niveau des sites des chalets situés à Boudouaou et Corso trois centres de formation professionnelle. Ces centres, qui ont déjà ouvert leurs portes, offrent aux élèves sinistrés des cours de couture, coiffure, broderie. Le financement de ce projet, assuré par les deux entreprises étrangères susmentionnées, a été évalué à cinq milliards de centimes. 16 422 familles nécessiteuses recensées Les services de la direction de la solidarité de la wilaya de Boumerdès ont recensé au cours du mois sacré de ramadan 16 422 familles nécessiteuses. ces dernières ont bénéficié chaque jour du traditionnel couffin de ramadan. Pour ce qui est des repas chauds, les autorités locales ont ouvert dix restaurants de la rahma, qui ont assuré quotidiennement quelques 2 400 repas chauds aux passants et aux gens démunis de la région. Les élèves de Haouch El-Mokhfi en danger Aussi paradoxal que cela puisse paraître, une petite ruelle en piste et sans trottoir menant directement au CEM Haouch El-Mokhfi d’Ouled Heddadj dans la wilaya de Boumerdès est squattée par des particuliers, propriétaires d’engins poids lourds. En effet, des semi-remorques, des camions et même des bus bloquent chaque matin et durant toute la journée l’entrée principale du CEM, mettant ainsi en danger la vie de centaines d’élèves scolarisés dans cette école.

EARTHQUAKE 27 June 2003 the Federation’S Mission Is to Improve the Lives of Vulnerable People by Mobilizing the Power of Humanity
Revised appeal no. 14/03 ALGERIA: EARTHQUAKE 27 June 2003 The Federation’s mission is to improve the lives of vulnerable people by mobilizing the power of humanity. It is the world’s largest humanitarian organization and its millions of volunteers are active in over 180 countries. For more information: www.ifrc.org In Brief THIS REVISED EMERGENCY APPEAL NO. 14/03 SEEKS A TOTAL OF CHF 4,798,000 (USD 3,543,162 OR EUR 3,104,632); WITH CHF 4,339,000 ALREADY CONTRIBUTED, A BALANCE OF CHF 459,000 IN CASH OR SERVICES IS NEEDED TO ASSIST 40,000 BENEFICIARIES FOR UP TO 12 MONTHS, AND TO SUPPORT THE ALGERIAN RED CRESCENT TO IMPLEMENT THE PLANNED ACTIVITIES. An Algerian Red Crescent volunteer distributing bottled water in Boumerdes, Algeria The ARC was among the first to respond after the earthquake. Summary Appeal 14/03 was issued on 22 May 2003 seeking CHF 1,958,000 to assist 10-20,000 beneficiaries for up to three months. Following the initial impact the Algerian Red Crescent (ARC), supported by a Federation Field Assessment & Coordination Team (FACT), the Federation’s Regional Office in Tunis, and three Participating National Society (PNS) Emergency Response Teams (ERUs), effectively responded to the emergency search and rescue phase, providing first aid, health, basic relief and shelter to the affected population. The ARC continues to provide longer-term support in designated areas. The ARC and FACT carried out more detailed assessments of the consequent damage and needs. As a result of this assessment this revised appeal now seeks a total of 4,798,000 to assist up to 40,000 of the most vulnerable population with adequate shelter, water, and basic health needs.

ACTIONS BEFORE EARTHQUAKE 4. ACTIONS DURING AN EARTHQUAKE 5. ACTIONS AFTER AN EARTHQUAKE 6. ACTIONS FROM COMMUNITY TO REDUCE IMPACT OF EARTHQUAKES 7. CASE STUDIES OF IMPACTS OF A SAME EARTHQUAKE IN A DEVELOPED COUNTRY AND IN A DEVELOPING COUNTRY 8. CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS 9. BIBLIOGRAPHY 1. EARTHQUAKE DISASTER AWARENESS: UNDERSTAND THE THREAT 1.1 Introduction Earthquakes have occurred for billions of years. Many stories along the history of man show the considerable impact they have had on human’s lives and property. Earthquakes are the most terrifying and destructive among the other natural phenomena like rain or wind. For many of African countries, earthquake hazard constitutes a serious threat to human life and property, sometimes causing major economic losses and disruption. The environment concerns and an increased official and public awareness of earthquake hazards have, in the last decade, led to a rapid rise of interest in seismicity and, seismic hazard and risk evaluations in the African countries. Because earthquakes are a natural phenomenon, their occurrence cannot be avoided, due to our limited knowledge and ability at present; however, the impact of such events on people’s lives and their proprieties can be considerably reduced. The effects of all destructive earthquakes which have occurred in the past could have been significantly reduced if pre-, during and post-disaster measures were adopted and implemented.

[1] The Boumerdes earthquake occurred on a fault whose data showed that the surface projection of the top of the precise location, offshore the Algerian coast, was unknown. fault is situated at 6 km offshore, and the bottom of the fault Geodetic data are used to determine the absolute position of at 4 km inland. Meghraoui et al. [2004] using the uplifts the fault. The fault might emerge at about 15 km offshore. and the leveling data suggested that the fault might emerge Accelerograms are used to infer the space-time history of the between 5–10 km offshore. rupture using a two-step inversion in the spectral domain. [3] Since the distribution of static deformations is highly The observed strong motion records agree with the sensitive to fault position, our first goal in this study is to synthetics for the fault location inferred from geodetic find the best absolute position of the fault using all available data. The fault plane ruptured for about 18 seconds. The slip geodetic data (GPS, uplifts and leveling). The second goal is distribution on the fault indicates one asperity northwest of to take advantage of near source strong motion records to the hypocenter with maximum slip amplitude about 3 m.
