8 DISTRICT PROFILE:

1.1 BRIEF HISTORY & ADMINISTRATION;

Una District came into existence on 01-09-1972. This District till 1966 was a Tehsil of Hoshiarpur District of erst-while Punjab State. Consequent upon reorganization of Punjab State, hilly areas including part of Una Tehsil was transferred to Himachal Pradesh state on 01- 01-1966 and Una Tehsil become a part of Kangra District of Himachal Pradesh. The Himachal Pradesh Government reorganized the then Kangra District into three districts namely Una, Hamirpur and Kangra. Besides this, Bangana Tehsil of Hamirpur District was included in this District. Administratively Una District is divided into two Sub Divisions namely Una and Amb with their headquarters at Una and Amb respectively. Una subdivision has three tehsils and Amb Sub-division has one tehsil at Amb and one sub-tehsil at Bharwain. For the development administration, District has five development blocks namely Una, Amb, Bangana, Gagret and Haroli that are more or less coterminous with five assembly segments namely Una, Chintpurni, Kutlehar, Gagret and Santokhgarh respectively. There are only one Municipal Counsil for Una Town and four Notified Area Committees for Gagret, Daulatpur, Mehatpur and Santokhgarh towns. For local Governance, district is divided into 235 Gram Panchayats. Local self Government in the District is organized on 3 tier pattern i,e Zila Parishad at District Level, Panchayat Samiti at Block Level and Gram Panchayat at Village level. There are five Block Samities at all the five development blocks.

1.2 GEOGRAPHY AND BOUNDARIES :

The District headquarter is situated 232 Kilo Meters away from the State capital. The main source of income is agriculture and 80% population of the district is involved in agricultural activities. The total geographically area of Una District is 1540 Sq. Kilo Meters (report of Surveyor General of India). The District is situated at an altitude from 350 to 1200 Meters above MSL and it lies in the Shiwalik hills zone between 31’ 21”/31’ 50” latitude and 71’ 55”/76 28” longitudes. The District is situated in the East-North of the state and is surrounded by District(s) Bilaspur, Hamirpur and Kangra in the North and the west. However it is urrounded by the Districts of Rup Nagar, Hoshiarpur of the state of Punjab on the east and the South.

1.3 RIVERS & KHUDS IN THE DISTRICT

Una District has one mjor seasonal river that sometimes is termed as “Sorrow of the District due to its vulnerability to flash floods. Besides, there are several minor and major seasonal rivers and khuds in the district and their number and location is indicated in table 1 and figure 1

1.4 AREA

The total area of the District is 1, 78,139 hectare and 42,454 hectares is cultivated area. Out of the total cultivated area only 6,546 hectares is irrigated. The uncultivated area comprising of 1,11,741 hectares is wasteland and is mostly covered by the river swan and other small streams (Khads). 23,043 hectares of the land is under the forest. There are 866 revenue estates in District Una. The soil of District is sandy and loam in texture with scattered loamy patches.

1.5 DEMOGRAPHY : The total population of District Una as per 2001 census is 4, 47,967, out of which 2, 24,299 are males and 2, 23,668 females. The rural population of the district comprises 91.19% of the total population i.e 4, 08,545 and urban population is 39,422. The literacy percentage of the district is 81.09% and the sex ratio is 997/1000.

1.6 CLIMATE: (TEMPERATURE, RAINFALL, GEOLOGY)

The climate of the District is mostly sub-tropical and has an annual normal rainfall of 1,000 mm. Minimum temperature during the winter season goes down up to 3-4 degree celsius and the maximum temperature during the summer exceeds even 45- degree celsius. The climate remains generally dry throughout the year but during the rainy season it becomes humid. 12

1.7 ROADS & MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION:

Road Transporation is the life line for the econony of the district. The district is well connected by roads as well as rail. The district has good road connectivity and it is well connected with Chandigarh, Delhi and most of the areas of Punjab and Himachal Pradesh through all weather roads. The District Headquarter is also connected by broad gauge railway line.

The total length of metalled and unmettaled roads is 1,515 KMs including National and State Highways. All the Tehsils and Block Headquarters are well connected by roads and state Highway 32 passes through the District.

The goods transport is almost in the hands of private truck operators dominate the transportation of Goods, while HRTC is the mail passenger transport service provider.

A fleet of 94 buses of HRTC is plying on different routes in the District. Besides HRTC, Punjab Roadways also operate on fewer routes. The District Headquarter is connected by broadgauge railway line upto Village Churru. The extension of railway line upto Amb is in progress. The proposed railway line, once complete would terminate at Talwara.

1.8 DRINKING WATER SOURCES:

The district is comfortable in the supply of drinking water to its people and I & PH department shoulders the responsibility of providing potable drinking water in every nook and corner of the District. However some areas of Development Block Bangana face acute shortage of drinking water during the summer months and drinking water supply is maintained through the water tankers. Tube wells, hand pumps, taps, wells, tanks, rivers, canals, lakes and natural springs are the main sources of drinking water in the District.

13 CHAPTER- 2

HAZARDS AND VULNERABILITY OF UNA DISTRICT TO DISASTERS

2.1 RISK ANALYSIS AND VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT

Una district is highly vulnerable to certain natural and man made disasters. The major disasters to which Una district is prone to are; fire accidents, drought, hail storms, land slides, flash floods, road accidents, chemical hazard, stampede and earthquake.

2.1.1 Fire Accidents: This kind of disasters that happen in Una District, normally in summer season, cause heavy losses to the residential houses / slums (Jhungi – Jhopri) as well as forest produce. Slums/Jhungi Jhopris st up by the migrant labour are most vulnerable to the fire hazards. Human lives and live stock are affected in such fire accidents

2.1.2 Drought.

Drought is the major problem of the district. The sources of drinking water as well as small nallahs and bowlies dry-up during summer season, especially in hilly area of the district, resulting into scarcity of drinking water. This problem is faced almost in the entire district but vulnerability of Bangana tehsil is more than rest of the District.

The droughts also affect the crops resulting into shortage of food and fodder. For crop loss, special survey is carried out to assess the crop loss and land Revenue is waived of by the Government. if the losses are above 50%. To meet with the requirement of fodder, wheat straw is imported from the Punjab State for its supply to the farmers at subsidized rates.

2.1.3. Hailstorms:

The hailstorm is not a regular disaster in Una District but it mostly occurs during the season of Rabi crops. Whenever such disaster occurs, the loss of crops is assessed through the field revenue agencies and losses are conveyed to the Government for further appropriate action.

2.1.4. Land Slides:

Una district is generally plain area having some hills. Land slides generally occur during the rainy season damaging houses, human lives, cattle and roads leading to road blocks. Hilly terrain having loose strata is more vulnerable to landslides than other parts of the district.

14 2.2.5. Floods

Most of the areas of this district are flood prone owing to the presence of seasonal rivers and khuds. The main Swan River and its tributaries cause heavy losses to the human lives, livestock, land and property mainly due to flash floods. District Disaster Management agencies have identified and mapped villges and habitations prone to flash floods. Following villages/habitations in the district are vulnerable to flash floods:

Una Tehsil

1. Jhalera 2. Malahat 3. Ghaluwal 4.Santoshgarh 5. Khad 6. Pandoga 7. Basal 8. Raisary 9. Dhamandri 10. Jalgran 11. Nangran

Haroli Tehsil 1. Saloh 2. Palkhwah 3. Badehra

15

2.1.6 ROAD ACCIDENTS

Una District like any other place in the state is vulnerable to road accidents but the vulnerability of the district Una increases manifold due to heavy as well as indiscliplined traffic of pilgrims visiting religious shrines of the district such as Mata Chintpurni, Pir Nigah, Baba Bharbhag singh at Mairi, Bharmauti temple, Jogi Panga, Baba Rudranand shrine. Not only this pilgrim traffic in the district also increases as most of the tourists visiting shrines located at other districts such as Baba balak Nath, Jawala ji, Brijeshwar Devi, Chamunda etc too pass through Una district. Although Hon’ble supreme court has forbidden transportation of human beings in goods carriers such as trucks and and small goods carriers but it is still continuing unabated because there is no check onthis menace in the states such as Punjab, Haryana and Rajasthan, from where this unruly and indisciplined traffic originates. Once this traffic enters the District on mass scale, it is impossible for district police to handle. Many such efforts have proved futile and caused law and order problems in the past.

2.1.7 EARTH QUAKE

Earthquakes are one of the most destructive of natural hazards. Earthquakes occur due to sudden transient motion of the ground as a result of release of elastic energy in a matter of few seconds. The impact of the event is most traumatic because it affects large area, occurs all of a sudden and is unpredictable. They can cause large scale loss of life and property and disrupt essential services such as water supply, sewerage systems, communication, power and transport. They not only destroy villages, towns and cities but the aftermath leads to destabilize the economic and social structure of the area affected.

Una District like other areas of Himachal Pradesh is highly vulnerable to this natural hazard as entire Himachal Pradesh exists in Zone V threat as depicted in map below. The vulnerability to damage in the district due to earthquake increases due to poorly equipped buildings especially in the rural areas. Government buildings in the rural areas, especially those constructed through Gram Panchayats such as schools, community centers, mahila mandal bhawans, youth club, anganbari centers are highly vulnerable to damage due to lack of inclusion of seismic features for construction of such buildings.

2.1.8 CHEMICAL HAZARD

Areas of the District bordering Nangal (Punjab) are highly vulnerable to chemical hazard due to the presence of two major chemical intensive establishments; NFL (National Fertilizers Limited) and (PACL) Punjab Alkali and Chemical Limited at Nangal. Seven Gram Panchayats of the district, namely; Ajouli, Mehatpur, Nagar Panchayat Mehatpur Basdehra, Poona/Binewal, Sanoli, malookpur and Majara bordering Nangal are highly vulnerable to chemical hazard in case of accidental leakage of harmful/poisonous gasses from NFL/PACL. Besides these there is one major Indane LPG filling/bottling station at Raipur. Six gram Panchayats namely; Raipur, Charatgarh, Mehatpur, Basdehra, Chhatarpur Tada and

16 Santoshgarh are highly vulnerable to fire and chemical hazard in case of any accident in this LPG installation.

2.1.9 STAMPEDE AT RELIGIOUS PLACES

District is highly vulnerable to stampede at religious places such as Mata Chintpurni, Pir Nigah, Baba barbhag Singh shrine at Mairi, and several religious functions organized in the district from time to time. The vulnerability is due to the arrival of pilgrims to these shrines much beyond the capacity of shrines to accommodate. Though lakhs of pilgrims visit these shrines round the year but on certain special occasions such as Shravan Ashtami, Navratras, purnima, budh purnima and hola mohalla etc, visiting pilgrims far exceed the capacity of these shrines.

CHAPTER 3 DISTRICT DISASTER MANAGEMENT PLAN & STRATEGY

3.1 STRUCTURE OF DISASTER MANAGEMENT PLAN IN DISTRICT UNA:

The Disaster Management Plan of the Una District has three components (A) Risk Analysis and Vulnerability Assessment, (B) Response Plan and (C) Mitigation Strategy.

The Risk Analysis and Vulnerability Assessment depict the present picture for each disaster- exposure, loss of life, property damage, etc. It also shows geographic distribution of each hazard. The various monitoring facilities, regulatory regimes, countermeasures available for each disaster are identified and listed. The response plan presents an organizational structure of the District to effectively handle the disaster in a coordinated and quickest possible manner to mitigate the impact of disaster. It identifies functional areas such as relief, restoration, communication, information, transport, emergency health services etc and proposes assignments to various departments; including identifying lead and supporting departments. The response plan also lays down preparedness checklists and standing operating procedure (SOP) guidelines.

The mitigation strategy and plan focus on the long-term planning for impact reduction. It deals with the issues of continued commitment to hazard identification and risk assessment, applied research and technology transfer, investment- incentives for mitigation, and leadership and co- ordination for mitigation.

3.2 COMMUNITY BASED DISASTER MANAGEMENT (CBDM)

Though the responsibility of disaster management is vested with the center and state Governments, it is extremely difficult for them to deal effectively all the aspects of disaster management according to the needs of the affected people. In many cases where the disaster affected areas and population is large, the reach of the government machinery is not adequateand considerable loss to the life and property occurs due to lack of timely response. It has been experienced during recent major disasters acroos the country where local communities as well as the local governments took initiative, the process of rescue, relief and rehabilitation was smooth and effective, whereas in other areas, the Government and NGOs had to face enormous problems. The disaster management plan of the Una District therefore has been prepared through incorporation of the features of CBDM.and involvement of local governments, Municipalities and PRIs and CBOs such as Mahila Mandals, Yuvak mandals, Anganbaris, SHGs etc.

3.3 MITIGATION PLAN

Natural Disasters can not be prevented as these are the parts of the natural processes, however their impact on socio-economic life can be minimized. Preparedness therefore is the main

18 foundation of disaster management plan for the Una district. District Disaster mitigation plan thus have two levels:

1. Pre-Warning Level preparedness includes:

• General awareness among people about the nature and intensity of the impact and resultant damages, losses and hardships caused by different types of disasters/natural calamities. • Knowledge of counter measures required by the local community as well as assistance available from various Government as well as non-Government agencies in the event of natural or man made disaster. • Check – up and drills for all

2. Post warning Level preparedness includes:

• Preparation for evacuation (where needed) • Preparedness for manging relief camps • Preparation for task forces for rescue operations • Arrangements for food, drinking water, medical support and other basic needs • Activation of crisis management group • Coordination between various agencies CMG and local community leaders for the management of Rescue, Relief and other operations • Operationalization of all communication and warning systems.

3.4 MITIGATION & RESPONSE STRATEGY FOR UNA DISTRICT

3.4.1 FIRE ACCIDENTS

To deal with the fire incidents in the district Una, there is one fire service station at Una which has the manpower of 21 personnels, which includes one fire officer, 4 leading fireman, 6 Drivers, 9 Fireman and one Assistant. The fleet of fire brigade has 3 vehicles which include:

1. Fire vosuer = 1 No. 9000 Liters capacity. 2. Water Tender = 1 No. 4500 Liters capacity. 3. Small Water Tender = 1 No. 2000 Liters capacity

In thickly populated area of the district i. e Una and Amb towns there are enough hydrants available with I&PH Department Division No.I and II. Fire extinguishers are being installed in all the offices of the districts and all heads of offices have been directed to take immediate action on it. Besides his, liasion is maintained with District Administation Ropar and Hoshiarpur for requisitioning fire tenders from Nangal and Hoshiarpur in case of exigency. A fire tender is also being procurred for Temple Trust Chintpurni.

19 In case of fire incidents occurring in the district, Home Guards and jawans of 1 st IRB Bangarh and Police are available for deployment. There are five companies of Home Guards having 478 Home Guards and one company of 1 st IRB comprising of 100 trained men available. In any emergent situation these trained police men and Home Guards are readily available for deployment. At the community level, disaster management committees are formed and District is working on capacity building of the committee members to handle any sudden fire incident.

3.4.2 DROUGHT

To meet with this disaster, I&PH department has identifying the water scarcity areas and installing the hand pumps in the drought prone areas. Besides this, the traditional water sources are also cleaned and disinfected for making them usable. In some parts of the Bangana, Amb and Una Tehsils, where drinking water sources completely dry-up; the drinking water is supplied through tankers in the summer season. This position is reviewed with I&PH Department during summer season from time to time. Hand Pumps are being installed in drought prone area as a long term strategy. In order to contain adverse effects of drought on Agriculture and Horticulture, District is using MNREGA, DPAP and SWAN Watershed project to enhance irrigational potential by way of constructing water harvesting structure. Revenue and line departments are geared up to immediately take on the task of loss assessment to provide relief to farming community as per the provisions of relief manual and also to submit the case for special assistance fron the state as well as the Central Government.

3.4.3 LAND SLIDES

To deal with this type of disaster, the machineries and equipments available in the district has been identified and inventory is prepared. Machinery available with all the three HP.PWD divisions, I&PH department as well as HRTC can be pressed into service without any loss of time. Liasion is also maintained with private construction companied operating in the district to identify equipment available with them and which could be requisitioned in case of emergent situations. In order to mitigate the occurance of landslides in the district retaining structures are being constructed through MNREGA, DPAP and SWAN watershed projects. Besides this, special care is taken by HPPWD department while undertaking the new road construction work.

3.4.4 FLOODS

To mitigate flood damages in the district, Government has set up a separate Flood Protection Division at Gagret which is channelising Swan River and its tributaries. Besides this villages are given early warnings well before the onset of rainy season as well as during the rainy season in order to prevent losses to life and property. Quick reaction teams of District Police, Ist IRB at Bangarh and Home Guards is kept at high alert in order to save the marooned people especially in the rainy season. 20

3.4.5 ROAD ACCIDENTS

In order to contain the incidence of raod accidents, district has planned strategy to maintain round the clock road discipline through District Police. Una District, round the year receives heavy indisciplined traffic in the shape of large number of heavy and light goods carriers carrying passangers. These goods carriers carrying overloaded passangers enter the district from the neighbouring sates of Punjab and Haryana unchecked. Since it is impossible to handle lakhs of people within the district once they have entered in groups, the District administration has taken up this issue with the State government to take up the matter with Punjab and Haryana from where this unruly and indisplined traffic originate.

3.4.6 EARTH QUAKE

Taking lessons from the past experiences of major earthquakes all over the country, where affected areas suffered mass scale devastation, district has elaborately planned a strategy to mitigate the effects of earthquake it srikes the district at all.

3.4.6.1 CAUSES OF THE EARTHQUAKE

An Earthquake is a series of underground shock waves and movements on the earth’s surface caused by natural processes within the earth’s crust.

3.4.6.2 GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS i. Earthquake Vibrations

Earthquake vibrations occur in a variety of frequencies and velocities. The actual rupture process may last from a few seconds to as long as one minute for a major earthquake. Seismic waves generated by the rupture can last from several seconds to a few minutes. Ground shaking is caused by body waves and surface waves. Body waves (P and S waves) penetrate the body of the earth, vibrating fast. P waves traveling at about 6 km per hour provide the initial jolt and cause buildings to vibrate in an up and down motion. S waves, traveling about 4 km per second in a movement similar to a rope snapped like a whip cause a typically sharper jolt that vibrates structures from side to side and causes even greater damage. S waves are usually the most destructive. Surface waves vibrate the ground horizontally and vertically. These long-period waves cause swaying of tall buildings and slight wave motion in bodies of water even at great distances from the epicenter. ii. Depth of Earthquakes

Earthquake focus depth is an important factor in shaping the characteristics of the waves and the damage they inflict. The focal depth can be deep (from 300 to 700 km), intermediate (60 to

21 300 km) or shallow (less than 60 km). Deep focus earthquakes are rarely destructive because the wave amplitude is greatly attenuated by the time it reaches the surface. Shallow focus earthquakes are more common and are extremely damaging because of their close proximity to the surface. iii. Measurement Scales Earthquakes can be described by use of two distinctly different scales of measurement demonstrating magnitude and intensity. Earthquake magnitude or amount of energy released is determined by use of a seismograph, an instrument that continuously records ground vibrations. A scale developed by a seismologist named Charles Richter mathematically adjusts the readings for the distance of the instrument from the epicenter. The Richter scale is logarithmic. An increase of one magnitude signifies a 10-fold increase in ground motion or roughly an increase of 30 times the energy. Thus, an earthquake with a magnitude of 7.5 releases 30 times more energy than one with a 6.5 magnitude, and approximately 900 times that of a 5.5 magnitude earthquake. A quake of magnitude 3 is the smallest normally felt by humans. The largest earthquakes that have been recorded under this system are 9.25 (Alaska, 1969) and 9.5 (Chile, 1960).

3.4.6.3 PREPAREDNESS IN UNA DISTRICT

i) Community preparedness –

Community preparedness is vital for mitigating earthquake impact. District is in the process of undertaking effective programs that will be formal and initiated at the community level involving PRIs and CBOs such as MM, YM, village health and sanitation committees and village level disastermanagement committees with the support of State/National Government financial assistance.

ii) Public Education

Preparedness includes educating the public on the causes and characteristics of an earthquake and what they should do if one occurs. Public awareness program have been designed to reach every vulnerable person and thus significantly reduce the social and material costs of an earthquake. Some examples of information to be provided include:

Causes of earthquakes and warning signs Awareness of earthquake risks and ways to minimize personal vulnerability Practical ways to reinforce vulnerable houses What to do in the event of an earthquake (Box 1) What to do after the earthquake (Box 2)

iii) Post Disaster Assistance Needs

The immediate impact of an earthquake affects all sectors of the community. Therefore the DDMA would initially emphasize search and rescue of victims.

22 Secondly, emergency medical assistance will be provided especially during the first 72 hours. Third, a damage and needs assessment survey would be conducted to inform State Government of needs. Fourth, the survivors will be provided relief assistance such as food, water and emergency shelter. Attention would be given to reopening roads, re-establishing communications, contacting remote areas and conducting disaster assessments. At the end of the emergency period, long-term recovery needs would take priority. The post earthquake period presents an opportunity to minimize future risks through enactment or strengthening of land use and building codes as rebuilding takes place. The focus would be on: • repair and reconstruction of water, sewer, electrical services and roads • technical, material and financial assistance for repair and reconstruction of houses and public buildings

3.4.6.4 EARTHQUAKE RESPONSE PLAN

The emergency measures of evacuation, search, rescue and relief form important action plans in disaster management. Once disaster occurs, District Disaster Management Machinery would plunge into action in doing rescue and relief operations. The Trigger Mechanism is a vital part of preparedness plan whereby the receipt of a signal of an impending disaster would simultaneously energize and activate the mechanism of response and mitigation without loss of crucial time. Other aspects are Rapid Damage/Loss Assessment for Emergency relief, Documentation of damages and losses and reconstruction.

3.4.6.5 EARTHQUAKE MITIGATION PLAN

The golden rule is that there is no standard solution to mitigate a disaster risk. The goal of DDMA Una is to minimize the impact of disaster. Possible risk reduction measures being propagated in the District are:

Engineered structures (designed and built) to withstand ground shaking. Architectural and engineering inputs put together to improve building design and construction practice in the district. Propagate earthquake resistant construction techniques for private buildings. Analyze soil type before construction and do not build structures on soft soil because buildings built on soft soils are more likely to get damaged even if the earthquake is not particularly strong in magnitude. Follow Indian Standard Code for construction of buildings Enforcement of building code in the byelaws Land use control and restriction on density and heights of buildings Strengthening of important buildings, which need to be functional after a disaster. 23 Upgrade level of safety of buildings.

Box 1 What to Do During an Earthquake

• Drop, cover, and hold on! Move only a few steps to a nearby safe place. Most injured persons in earthquakes move more than five feet during the shaking. It is very dangerous to try to leave a building during an earthquake because objects can fall on you. Many fatalities occur when people run outside of buildings, only to be killed by falling debris from collapsing walls. • If you are in bed, hold on and stay there, protecting your head with a pillow. You are less likely to be injured staying where you are. Broken glass on the floor has caused injury to those who have rolled to the floor or tried to get to doorways. • If you are outdoors, find a clear spot away from buildings, trees, streetlights, and power lines. Drop to the ground and stay there until the shaking stops. Injuries can occur from falling trees, street-lights and power lines, or building debris. • If you are in a vehicle, pull over to a clear location, stop and stay there with your seatbelt fastened until the shaking has stopped. Trees, power lines, poles, street signs, and other overhead items may fall during earthquakes. Stopping will help reduce your risk, and a hard-topped vehicle will help protect you from flying or falling objects. Once the shaking has stopped, proceed with caution. Avoid bridges or ramps that might have been damaged by the quake. • Stay indoors until the shaking stops and you're sure it's safe to exit. More injuries happen when people move during the shaking of an earthquake. After the shaking has stopped, if you go outside, move quickly away from the building to prevent injury from falling debris. • Stay away from windows. Windows can shatter with such force that you can be injured several feet away. • In a high-rise building, expect the fire alarms and sprinklers to go off during a quake. Earthquakes frequently cause fire alarm and fire sprinkler systems to go off even if there is no fire. Check for and extinguish small fires, and, if exiting, use the stairs. • If you are in a mountainous area or near unstable slopes or cliffs, be alert for falling rocks and other debris that could be loosened by the earthquake. Landslides commonly happen after earthquakes.

24 Box 2 What to Do After an Earthquake

• Check yourself for injuries. Often people tend to others without checking their own injuries. You will be better able to care for others if you are not injured or if you have received first aid for your injuries. • Protect yourself from further danger by putting on long pants, a long-sleeved shirt, sturdy shoes, and work gloves. This will protect your from further injury by broken objects. • After you have taken care of yourself, help injured or trapped persons but d on't try to move seriously injured people unless they are in immediate danger of further injury. • Look for and extinguish small fires. Eliminate fire hazards. Putting out small fires quickly, using available resources, will prevent them from spreading. Fire is the most common hazard following earthquakes. (Fires followed the San Francisco earthquake of 1906 for three days, creating more damage than the earthquake.) • Clean up spilled medicines, bleaches, gasoline, or other flammable liquids immediately. Avoid the hazard of a chemical emergency. • Open closet and cabinet doors cautiously. Contents may have shifted during the shaking of an earthquake and could fall, creating further damage or injury. • Inspect your home for damage. Get everyone out if your home is unsafe. Aftershocks following earthquakes can cause further damage to unstable buildings. If your home has experienced damage, get out before aftershocks happen. • Help neighbors who may require special assistance. Elderly people and people with disabilities may require additional assistance. People who care for them or who have large families may need additional assistance in emergency situations. • Listen to a portable, battery-operated radio (or television) for updated emergency information and instructions. If the electricity is out, this may be your main source of information. Local radio and local officials provide the most appropriate advice for your particular situation. • Expect aftershocks. Each time you feel one, drop, cover, and hold on! Aftershocks frequently occur minutes, days, weeks, and even months following an earthquake. • Watch out for fallen power lines or broken gas lines, and stay out of damaged areas. Hazards caused by earthquakes are often difficult to see, and you could be easily injured. • Stay out of damaged buildings. If you are away from home, return only when authorities say it is safe. Damaged buildings may be destroyed by aftershocks following the main quake. • Use battery-powered lanterns or flashlights to inspect your home. Kerosene lanterns, torches, candles, and matches may tip over or ignite flammables inside. • Inspect the entire length of chimneys carefully for damage. Unnoticed damage could lead to fire or injury from falling debris during an aftershock. Cracks in chimneys can be the cause of a fire years later. • Take pictures of the damage, both to the house and its contents, for insurance claims. • Avoid smoking inside buildings. Smoking in confined areas can cause fires.

25 • When entering buildings, use extreme caution. Building damage may have occurred where you least expect it. Carefully watch every step you take.

• Examine walls, floor, doors, staircases, and windows to make sure that the building is not in danger of collapsing. • Check for gas leaks. If you smell gas or hear a blowing or hissing noise, open a window and quickly leave the building. Turn off the gas, using the outside main valve if you can, and call the gas company from a neighbor's home. If you turn off the gas for any reason, it must be turned back on by a professional. • Look for electrical system damage. If you see sparks or broken or frayed wires, or if you smell burning insulation, turn off the electricity at the main fuse box or circuit breaker. If you have to step in water to get to the fuse box or circuit breaker, call an electrician first for advice. • Check for sewage and water line damage. If you suspect sewage lines are damaged, avoid using the toilets and call a plumber. If water pipes are damaged, contact the I&PH Department and avoid using water from the tap. • Watch for loose plaster, drywall, and ceilings that could fall. • Use the telephone only to report life-threatening emergencies. Telephone lines are frequently overwhelmed in disaster situations. They need to be clear for emergency calls to get through. • Watch animals closely. Leash dogs and place them in a fenced yard. The behavior of pets may change dramatically after an earthquake. Normally quiet and friendly cats and dogs may become aggressive or defensive.
