HAZARD PROFILE

25

3.1 Hazard profile of the district Wayanad district is situated at the southern tip of the . This district is a part of the . Wayanad is a district, prone to various kinds of disasters. The district is classified under Zone III, ie, Moderate Risk Damage Zone with respect to Earth Quakes. Plateau topography dominates the district. Considered to be the southern end of the Deccan Plateau, this region is dominated by ridges of Western Ghats. There are ridges and valleys all over the district. Many peaks and hillocks are there. Landslide susceptibility map of Wayanad district was included in the District Disaster Management Plan 2014 and the same is included in this revised plan also. The hill ranges bordering Wayanad with Malappuram and Kozhikkode districts are also landslide prone areas. Special care is to be taken while implementing projects involving land manipulation or disturbance in all these areas in particular and the whole of the district in general.

Landslides have created problems in Wayanad, many times in the past. The Wayanad- border has been identified by CESS as one of the most landslide prone areas in the state. The Mundakkai, Kappikkalam and Valamthode landslide/debris flows are notable ones. The Mundakkai debris flow occurred in 1984 and it claimed 14 lives apart from the loss of prime agricultural land. The Kappikkalam Urulpottal near Padinjarethara occurred in 1992 and claimed 11 lives. Another catastrophic Landslide occurred on 23.6.2007 at Valamthode, which claimed 4 lives. Apart from this, many other Landslides of similar nature and of varying magnitude occurred in Wayanad in the past. One of such Landslides occurred at the -Kumbaleri road, near the Arattupara and Pahantom Rock. Many landslides occurred during the month of August 2018 (details are given in Chapter IV, inter alia).

Floods have also frequented this district many times. Minor flooding has been disrupting normal course of life, during Monsoon. Special care need be exercised in managing these floods. An option of permanently resettling the affected population from frequently affected areas like Kakkathode and Puzhamkuni Tribal Colonies in NoolpuzhaGramaPanchayat; VellachalPaniya Colony in NenmeniGramaPanchayat; Palakkolli Colony in PulpallyGramaPanchayat; Mathoorpoyil Colony in PanamramGramaPanchayatetc shall be given priority. The flood occurred during the month of August 2018 was one of the most severe disaster experienced by this district in its recorded history (details are given in Chapter IV, inter alia).

Draught is another serious disaster which has affected the district during the past, many a times. During the year 2016-17, the rainfall has recorded a new minimum. The annual rainfall is showing undulating tendencies, owing to the global climate change crisis. This is a very alarming situation, which points toward the possibility of catastrophic draughts. Adequate

26

care shall be given to meet the urgent situation as also to implement long term projects, to prevent draught and to mitigate its ill effects.

Another serious disaster, that affected the district in the recent past was the Kyasanur Forest Disease (KFD) aka Monkey Fever. This disease claimed 11 lives during the year 2014-15. With careful preventive steps and meticulous intervention, the disease was brought under control during the year 2015-16 and the death toll was zero. In 2019, there are two confirmed and 10 suspected cases of KFD identified so far in Wayanad, but it is successfully treated to avoid casualties. However, particular care need be exercised in future also, for preventing the disease through proper proactive preventive measures. , Noolpuzha, , Mullankolly gramapanchayats and Sulthan Bathery Municipality were the worst hit areas by KFD. In these areas, if any monkey carcass is found outside forest area, then it shall be burned at the spot itself after duly sanitising the area around it upto a radial distance of 50 metres with Malathion Dust or its chemical substitute. If it is found inside forest, then also proper sanitisation shall be done to prevent spreading of the disease. Everyone, who is engaged in work of any description inside forest, shall be provided with KFD vaccination for protection. Those who are living inside forest and forest fringe areas shall also be given with vaccination. District Medical Officer (Health) shall procure enough Vaccine, Malathion dust etc in consultation with concerned LSGIs, for the purpose. Proper treatment for the affected patients shall also be ensured. Those domestic animals which graze in the forest shall be applied with preventive lotions to keep the KFD spreading ticks away. District Animal Husbandry Officer shall procure enough quantity of lotion, in consultation with concerned LSGIs. The Forest Department shall undertake controlled burning of dry leaf/twig debris in KFD reported areas to destroy tick population.

4.1 PROLOGUE

Wayanad, witnessed a very severe round of Flood and Landslides, during the month of August 2018. The disaster was naturally triggered, as a result of torrential rainfall. The rainfall, received during the spell was unprecedented and extremely heavy, which resulted in raise of water level along the length and breadth of Wayanad. All the villages in the district were affected by flood and many of them affected by landslide also. In addition to flood and landslide, typical geographical disasters, such as Land Subsidence and Land Fissure, also occurred at some places in the district.

Losses sustained in the disaster were so immense that a very determined and premeditated effort is required for rebuilding a better Wayanad. The disaster resilience and Disaster Risk Reduction factors are to be keyed in, while planning and implementing the rebuilding streak. The operations of rebuild are progressing satisfactorily.

This chapter aims at and purport to collect, analyse and present the data related to the Disaster in a precise and objective manner. The intention of this chapter is limited to serve as a pointer rather than an exhauster.

4.2 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Wayanad is a hilly district in Kerala, India. It lies in the north east part of Kerala at the tip of Deccan Plateau and a part of the mighty Western Ghats. Geography of Wayanad is largely dominated by the presence of hillocks, valleys and forests. Population of 8.17 Lakh, of which more than 18 % is Scheduled Tribes. Wayanad shares boundary with Karnataka and Tamilnadu states . The total area of the District is 2132 Sq km.

A very characteristic statement about the Geography of Wayanad can be found in the observation of the Soil and Land Use survey of India, which reads as:

“Agriculture has dominant area in the district and occupied 94096 ha (44%) followed by forest area 66847 ha (31.4%). It is also important that most of the area in Wayanad district comes under steep to very steep slope class (42.1%) followed by strongly sloping to moderately steep slope class (26.1%). Another study shows that moderate to severe erosion (64.8%) followed by none to slight erosion (19.3%) in the geographical area of Wayanad. The soil is being poorly to moderately managed class (64.8%) followed by well managed class (19.3%)." (source http://slusi.dacnet.nic.in)

The flood and landslides, that hit the district in a major way, was mitigated through well laid out disaster management efforts of the District Disaster Management Authority (DDMA), Wayanad. It was a race and test against time, resource, strength and capacity; but all those tests were succesfully cleared to ensure that the disaster was properly managed and mitigated.

The DDMA, geared up and coordinated all efforts aimed at the management of disaster. The District Collector, being the Chairman of DDMA and in the capacity of the District Incidence Commander, lead and controlled the whole efforts of disaster management. The DEOC (District Emergency 39

Operation Center) was activated with its emergency time functions just after receiving heavy rainfall alerts. Alert messages were issued to various responding agencies including Revenue, Police and Fire & Rescue. Rescue shelters were made ready. Preventive evacuation was taken care of. People were shifted to rescue shelters, in anticipation of disaster, so as to avoid casualties.

Proper coordination between all the departments, agencies, functionaries and population was made through effective, pre-planned, pre-installed, well rehearsed and well established communication modalities and protocols. Role of agencies and responders were defined and decided before hand, in the form of Standard Operating Procedures (SoP). All the functionaries were geared up to kickstart and implement their part in the SoP. This had resulted in proper management of the disaster and minimising the distress of people.

The DEOC was manned properly with additional staff from Revenue department, Police, Fire and Rescue, Health department apart from technically qualified Engineers, Communication experts, Multi lingual experts, Psychologic counselors, Hazard Analyst and Disaster Risk Reduction Experts. Thousands of phone calls were handled by the DEOC every day on a 24 x 7 mode, in addition to thousands of Emails and Social Media leads. All available means of communication, including VHF radio, Satellite Communication devices and HAM radio were utilised in addition to telephone and internet.

All the issues started from 7th August in continuation to the torrential rainfall and continued till 17th August. There were incidents of Flood, Landslide and landslip, which were occurred in heavy magnitude and immense frequency.

The Disaster Managment Mechanism included, a Top level comprising District Level Functionaries and extended all the way down to grass root level functionaries who were acting at the field. All these were co-ordinated by the DDMA through the DEOC.

40

Intermediate level functionaries like Village and Panchayat Level Officers acted wisely based on the SoP and instruction from DEOC. They did the evacuation in a paced manner which helped to minimize the casualty to single digit figures.

This had happened in the case of flood also. The opening of the shutters of the BanasuraSagar Dam was the prime threat causing flood in the banks of and Mananthavady rivers. This threat was properly managed through coordination and control of the dam spillway opening. In addition, the downstream flow was regulated through opening of shutters of Kabini Dam in Mysuru, Karnataka also, which effectively assisted in expediting the flow and thereby reducing the inundation in flood plains of Wayanad. The spill opening of Karapuzha Reservoir also was regulated.

The Village Officers and Tahsildars, in the downsteam areas were proactive and evacuated as much population as possible from the downstream areas before inundation. Rescue and evacuation from isolated and severely inundated areas was carried out with the help of Fire and Rescue force, Police and Armed Forces.

The rest of the Kerala was also affected by flood from 13th August onwards and power and network had broken down across the state. This situation caused DEOC, Wayanad to receive distress calls from various locations such as Chenganur, , Aluwa, Chalakkudi, ,, etc. In order to cater the need of the state, DDMA Wayanad decided to create multiple phone lines on the toll free number 1077 and 04936 204151. Multiple phone lines with hunting facility was installed within minutes, with the support of BSNL. DDMA went little more ahead to set up a HAM radio network, which connected the DEOC with Taluk Offices and field. Vehicle Mounted HAM radios were deployed in field locations to ensure proper communication in any extreme situtation. Several lives were saved by this act of Wayanad DDMA/DEOC.

It is also notable that, a proper inspection and analysis was being done in the cases where Landslide threat reported from various parts of the District. A 41

team of experts was sent to the vulnerable spot by the DEOC to assess the situation. Based on the assessment report by the Expert Team, preventive evacuations were made at all the vulnerable locations. It had occurred that, just after the preventive evacuation, massive ladslides occurred at many such vulnerable locations. Had the DDMA not conducted an expert appraisal and preventive evacuation, lives would have been lost. This act by the DEOC under instruction from the DDMA alone saved more than 100 lives.

Army, Navy and NDRF were deployed and these forces helped in rescue, evacuation and relief. The central forces were deployed in the District from 9th August till 24th August. Fire Force and Police were actively involved in the rescue operations along with many NGO’s and civil groups.

Officers and employees of the Collectorate, various offices in the district of all departments and volunteers from all walks of life had come forward and worked together to enable the disaster mitigation operations effective. They spent endless hours, doing all the work, ranging from miniscule to major operations, with a single motive- that is to minimise human sufferings. It all worked well and the district was able to perfecty sail through the disaster, safely.

It was truly a team work that helped everyone to be saved. There were about 30000 people accomodated in the relief camps across Wayanad and the people management was done efficiently by the concerned officers based on the directions of DDMA issued through DEOC. Though it was a mammoth task, all the officials and volunteers were able to manage the situation and keep things under control.

4.3 A glimpse of the Natural Drain Network in Wayanad

The main river in Wayanad is the Kabani River which flows toward east and joins the River in Karnataka, after being tapped at the Kabini Reservoir at Beechanahalli in Mysuru district of Karnataka. Finally it enjoins the , at Kaveripattinam in district of Tamilnadu, after flowing through the breadth of Karnataka and Tamilnadu states, as part of river Kaveri. Major tributaries of Kabani River are, Panamaram River, Mananthavady River and Thirunelli River. In addition, there are many other rivulets such as Karaman todu, Varadoor puzha, Kadaman Thodu etc also, which are contributories of this major river system.

Yet another river is the Nulpuzha, which originates from the Nilgiris, flows through Sulthan Bathery Taluk and drains to the Nugu reservoir in Mysuru district of Karnataka. The Choladi puzha, originating itself in the Chembra hills, draining through Chooralmala and finally merging with the river is a Westward flowing river.

There are a very vast number of small springs, streams and rivulets also. All these natural drainage water courses help form a rich natural water drainage system, along with a distinct landscape for the district, marked by the flood plains and catchment areas. A huge population, including tribal hamlets, is living on the banks of these rivers.

4.3.1 Reservoirs

Banasura Sagar Dam at Padinjarathara, taluk and Karapuzha Dam, Sulthan Bathery taluk are two reservoirs in Wayanad. The Banasura Sagar dam is a Hydro Electric project, owned by the Kerala State Electricity Board Limited, which augments the Kuttiadi power project. It is an earthen dam with a FRL of 775.60 MSL. It has a storage capacity of circa 210 Mm3. Karapuzha Dam serves irrigation and drinking water needs, which is not yet fully commissioned and is owned and controlled by the Irrigation Department. This reservoir has a capacity of close to 40 Mm3.

• Relief camps were set up in safe and habitable buildings. Basic Minimum Facilities were ensured in the camp buildings. Additional facilities were provided wherever necessary. Most of the Relief Camps were set up in School buildings. Other buildings such as Community halls, Madrasas, Church Halls etc were also utilised for the purpose, in tune with local demand and size of the population affected. • Buildings for housing Relief Camps were identified well in advance by Village Officer. In necessary cases, a key to the building was kept by the Village Officer. Local population (likely to be affected), were given the contact and details of the identified Camps, beforehand. All these precautions resulted in avoiding last minute confusions, rush and vagaries. Electricity, safe drinking water, cooking facility, toilets etc were ensured in all the camps. Electric Power Generator was provided when power was interrupted. • The quality of the food served in camps was assured through proper inspections. It was ensured that hygienic and nutritious food was supplied to all, considering the local cuisine. • Provided boiled water/ purified water/ mineral water in all relief camps. • Blankets, Bed sheets, sleeping mats, cloths including innerwear, ready to eat food etc. were provided to every inmate without any hassle. • Ensured the service of Qualified Medical Practitioners on a daily basis in all the relief camps. Health checkups/ medical camps were conducted in every camp. Treatment was provided to everyone who was in need of it. Those with contagious diseases were shifted to hospitals immediately, to avoid spread of disease. • In order to prevent any law and order issue, police officers were assigned to each camp. Presence of Woman Civil Police Officer was also ensured in camps for giving support to women inmates and other vulnerable groups • In order to assure that everything is in place and everyone’s demands were taken care of, Deputy Collectors were given the supervisory charge of camps. Other District level Officers also were given the charge of 79

camps. They monitored the functioning of Relief Camps and ensured that the grievances were redressed promptly. • Employees from Revenue/ Health/ LSGI/ ST Development Department/ Education and various other departments were assigned the charge of individual camps. • Counselling Service was extended to all inmates in the camps, to better equip them with the trauma and PTSD. This was done from the very first day onwards. “Happiness” was the central theme of counselling provided at camps. Children were given counselling through Child line and NGOs.

11. CHALLENGES FACED IN CAMPS

Camps are meant to be the solace for the inmates who were rescued or evacuated from the disaster affected area. In some cases, where preventive evacuation was made, the inmates in the camp had not witnessed the devastating effect of disaster. In other cases, many people had seen the disaster in front of their eyes. That trauma, speaks volumes about how the inmates would have been feeling. We had people from Tribal, Migrant labors and others in the camp, who lived harmoniously in social unison at relief camps. They lived under one roof sharing the common facilities available in the relief camps. 87

1. Elderly: It was a challenge for the officials who were in charge of the camps to accommodate and give proper care for the elderly. Many of them might not be comfortable in such situation, particularly if they were going through medication and other illness. But, these things had been taken care well by the responsible officers without any issues in terms of care for the elderly people. They were given dietary supplements and medical care also.

2. Children : This is another vulnerable segment among the camp inmates. Many of the children had never been through such a situation and had expressed traumatic behaviour. DDMA acted well in advance to tackle the situation and enabled Child Line and other NGO’s to visit camps to provide the happiness counselling / motivation training to children who stayed in the camps. Hence, all the children were deeply engaged in many activities during the daytime including games, interactive sessions etc. It definitely left a positive impact. They were given dietary supplements also.

3. Pregnant women: It is uneasy for a pregnant woman to live among some 100 to 1000 people, sharing common facilities. They required privacy and proper serenity to maintain a healthy life. It was assured by the concerned officers that the pregnant women were given utmost care and concern in the camps. They were given dietary supplements and medical care also.

4. Differently abled: This included physically and mentally challenged population. Special care was taken to cater to their special needs, from day one itself. Proper medical and social support was given to this population, so as to equip them in a better way to meet the challenges and live without hurdles at the relief shelters.

The major challenge was to ensure proper food at right time to the inmates of the camp. As a result of the request from the District Administration and Government of Kerala, we received a sufficient stock of food items which 88

enabled the kitchen to cater the inmates with healthy, nutritious and delectable food. Other relief materials including clothing, personal hygiene products, medicines etc were also sourced and distributed in an effective manner.

Another area of concern was ensuring hygiene and containing spread of diseases. This was very well taken care of, through the active involvement of the Health and Family Welfare department in a proactive and exemplary manner. Frequent and daily medical checkups, awareness camps, preventive medication, immediate transferring and isolation of suspected cases of epidemics, proper administration of Emergency Medical Protocols etc., helped in managing this challenge in a better way.

Another important issue was the stress of the Village Officials and other functionaries engaged in the disaster mitigation operations. Endless hours of work, without rest, in a very challenging environment is sure to have its toll of stress on everyone involved. This was totally an expected scenario. Supplementing manpower from volunteer agencies and employees from various departments were deployed at the locations to soothe the stress.

89

12. FIVE PRACTICAL SUGGESTIONS FOR IMPROVING CAMPS

1. A team from Village level, comprising officials and volunteers from various departments and agencies are to be made responsible for the functioning of relief camps. This experiment was very successful during this disaster.

2. Special counselling teams shall be ready and must take care of the emotional needs of the camp from day one itself. This has also proved very much effective, in our experience

3. Camps can conduct various authorized sessions on livelihood, job training, creative workshops etc, so that the inmates would be engaged and equipped in many ways

4. More bio toilets/portable toilets are to be made readily available, at the LSGI level, which shall be readily deployed in relief camps

5. A buffer stock of relief materials shall be maintained at Villages where the vulnerability is the most

14. RESCUE AND EVACUATION

The casualties were kept minimal, through proper rescue and evacuation, though the flood and landslide hit harshly. This was the outcome of the proactive interference of field level officials, under instruction from the DDMA through DEOC, who involved in rescue and evacuation. It was crucial to identify the areas, where existed a possible threat of either flood or Landslide. After ascertainment of such information available with the DEOC or received from field, either the DEOC deployed a team of experts to assess the situation or right away conducted preventive evacuation.

The Expert Appraisal Team or the Emergency Evacuation team manned by Army/ Navy/ NDRF/ Police/ Fire and Rescue/ Revenue Officers/ Trained Volunteers was rushed to the spot for taking action 92

without delay. Evacuations were conducted in a systematic manner, avoiding panic and taking care of the needs of the affected population. People were evacuated to safer shelters. The entire machinery was involved as a team. The team put together efforts and resulted in minimizing casualties and human sufferings. Tahsildar was the overall head of the operations in the Taluk level and all the rescue and evacuation were done in coordination with the DEOC as per instructions of the District Incidence Commander aka The District Collector and DDMA.

a. Expert appraisal

There are many hills and rivulets in the District which obviously make the risk high, because of its high vulnerability status. In fact, during the extreme heavy rain and landslides, DDMA formulated a team of experts and left it at the disposal of DEOC. The Team of Experts comprised the officers from Soil Conservation Department, Mining and Geology Department, the Hazard Analyst and Experienced personnel from the Army and DEOC. These teams were deployed at various locations to assess the risk situation through field level assessment and analysis. Preventive evacuation was made, based on the reports from these teams, wherever and whenever so recommended by the team, in addition to the evacuations that had been taking place without such expert appraisal. Benefit of this expert appraisal was visible, very much in landslide prone areas. In this regard, a further study is proposed by experts in terms of ecological conservation, so that, the areas where the threat is existing can be identified and marked for future reference.

b. Preventive Evacuation

Indeed, preventive evacuation saved at least 500 lives from flood or landslide. The filed level mechanism acted upon the guidance of domain experts in connection with the threat in many areas and moved the families to safe locations. DEOC coordinated this operation effectively. All the available forces were used for the preventive evacuation.

• Well equipped IT infrastructure with 7 desktops, 3 laptops, 3 printers, 2 scanners were set up in control room along with power backup facilities from 3 UPSs and one Power Generator

18. COORDINATION OF OPERATIONS

All the operations were well coordinated. The District Collector and District Incidence Commander worked as the prime decision making point and monitoring point. The DDMA was functional throughout these days in an effective way to coordinate the efforts. The decisions of the District Incidence Commander and DDMA were made operational through the DEOC, which was headed by the CEO of DDMA and ADM.

The entire work of coordination of all the agencies, officers, efforts, operations, functionaries, departments, NGOs, civil organisations, defense forces etc was handled effectively by the DEOC. All the communications were streamlined by utilizing all the possible methods as mentioned above. DEOC was strengthened by deployment of all the manpower that was available in Collectorate. The coordination went very well on a 24 x 7 basis without any interruption. This was the key element in the effectiveness and success of disaster mitigation.

DEOC received thousands of calls from public and officials and coordinated with the concerned without any time lag. The lag between a distress call and

101

its response call was set to be 15 seconds, as a standard for the DEOC, and it was maintained all the time. The Turn-around Time (TAT) at DEOC was less than 3 minute in each case. Therefore, there was consistency in response to the disaster and the entire operations were done in a coordinated and controlled manner without panic and dismay even at the field.

Mobility was crucial during the time of disaster. It was made sure that sufficient vehicles of various capacity and capability were available at the disposal of the Disaster Management Mechanism at Collectorate, Taluk and Village levels to act promptly in tune with the situation.

19. RELIEF WORK

• Relief work was done in a meticulous manner • The whole efforts were coordinated by the Nodal Officers, under the guidance and control of the District Collector. The Sub Collector, Mananthavadi also played a leading role in ensuring prompt and effective relief measures • Suitable buildings were identified for storage of relief materials • A Social Media Campaign, christened 'We for Wayanad' was organised and set in full throttle to receive maximum support from the civil society • The campaign resulted in very good response from magnanimous hearts from all walks of life, who contributed generously and sincerely for meeting the demands of the situation • Relief materials were received from various locations. Those materials were received at the Reception centres, set up at Collectorate and Office of the Sub Collector • Entire officers and employees of the Collectorate took active part in receiving, invetorising, sorting, packing and distributing the relief materials in a professional manner • Officers of various other departments, Volunteers from NGOs and Civil Society were also actively engaged in the process

102

• The relief materials were distributed to relief camps, isolated areas and disaster hit locations • Relief materials were packed into convenient bundles, which were easy to carry and were distributed to each and every family accommodated in relief camps, while discharging them from the camps. This was a gigantic duty exemplarily handled by the Employees of the Collectorate Wayanad in a systematic manner. • Additional Storage points were opened at various locations and all those stores were properly manned by employees and volunteers

20. REHABILITATION EXERCISE

Rehabilitation after this devastating disaster is a major challenge. With the immense support from and leadership of the State Government and the ever overwhelming support of the civil society, the rehabilitation efforts are going on in an effective manner. The course of the rehabilitation exercise will find many more strategic and effective steps in the following days to cope up with the demand of the situation. The preliminary arrangements made as on 27th August are narrated below, to give a glimpse of the proactive action being taken. The efforts will go on, in a systematic and well paced manner, until each and every requirements of the disaster hit district is fully met and satisfied.

• A committee was formed with Revenue and LSGIs for creating and monitoring the master plan for rehabilitation. • Activities are classified and taken up based on two streams o Long term o Short term • Assigned suitable agencies to separate and dispose of degradable and non-degradable wastes . • Arrange and allocate all NGOs and volunteers based on their experience. • Collective rebuilding to be done • Inter Agency meetings were conducted with NGOs of local, national and international presence to support the rehabilitation mission

103

• Organized a mission named MISSION CLEAN WAYANAD which cleaned the entire district on 30th August. • The rebuild work is progressing satisfactorily

21. LESSONS LEARNED AND ANALYSIS OF SITUATION

a. Problems identified

These were the problems identified during the disaster management, which were effectively addressed, resolved and remedied. These are given in this chapter, with and aim to act as a guiding point, in future untoward incidences.

Rescue

• Unwillingness of people to move on to safer places, in fear of losing their livelihoods • Difficulties in reaching people living in remote areas especially in hilly and flood affected or low lying areas • Non availability of enough rescue equipments like boat, dinghies, life jackets etc. • There was no separate mechanism for rescuing and rehabilitating livestock. • Electricity supply line breakages lead to electrical hazards and failure of communication systems. • Instances of misleading information spreading through different social medias

Relief

• Short in supply of essential commodities from neighbouring districts and other states due to failure of all roads • Unavailability of infrastructure facilities for mass rehabilitation • Practical difficulties in procurement of basic materials (cloths, blankets mattress, sleeping mat etc.) locally.

104

• Difficulties in providing electricity, LPG, firewood, drinking water at camps because most of the relief camps are also nearby affected areas. • Lack of mechanism to address mental and physical distress faced by inmates. • Inadequate toilet facilities. • Shortage of immediate medical assistance facilities.

Cleaning

• Concerned departments and volunteers are not equipped with enough cleaning materials and machineries. • Unawareness of safety precautions while cleaning in affected areas. • Unavailability of experts and professionals in handling various problems (electrical, plumping, water source recharging, snakebites, etc.). • Possibility of spreading epidemics

Rehabilitation

• Rehabilitation of people in landslide affected areas. • Rebuilding of livelihood and infrastructure • Continuation of Education of students and treatment of patients. • Lack of enough fodder for cattle. • Restoration of household materials. • Rebuilding the morale and dignity of affected people. • Reassuring the safety of affected areas and building. • Reconstruction of damaged houses and road connectivity

All these problems were effectively addressed, resolved and remedied through proper actions.

105

b. Findings

• People are in fear of losing their livelihood and livestock • Poor road connectivity leads to road blocks which can hinder sourcing and distribution of relief materials and rescue operations. • Insufficiency of rescue materials available in the district. A buffer stock of essential materials need be maintained at all time. • Failure of power supply and communication systems could be particularly dangerous. Electrical Substation, transformers and feeder units were inundated. This could lead to power black out and make things worse. In addition, this could lead to switching off of mobile communication towers. This was addressed by the DEOC with particular attention from day one onwards. It was ensured through proper co-ordination with KSEB and various telecommunication providers that the telecommunication facilities are made operational without hindrance. Additional fuel supplies were ensured at all mobile communication towers with a plan to access such locations in emergency times. As a result, though many of the locations where telecommunication towers were located, were inundated and isolated, none of them fell short of power, as backup fuel and manpower with sustenance support were available at all such locations, which was arranged in advance. • Failure of pre-alert systems may occur. Therefore, a Plan B and even Plan C, shall be ready at all time.

c. Suggestions and Recommendations

Some of the issues which are to be addressed on a war footing are,

• reconstruction of damaged or demolished houses • restoration of fertility of soil • revamping of various livelihood sectors including livestock, farming and tourism

106

• provisions for supply of lost of documents through a single window system • waiver or moratoriums on loans for the disaster affected population • supply of firewood, fodder, seeds, manure and farm supplies • repair of damaged vehicles and household equipments

Some recommendations are set out below. These were done during the disaster, in an effective manner. These points are added in this chapter, so as to act as a future pointer.

• Provide separate mechanisms for livestock rescue and rehabilitation • Periodical inspection of electrical supply systems and application of advanced technologies • Enhancement of alternative methodologies for communication and power failures • Construction of alternative non-ghat roads, so as to ensure connectivity • Necessary actions to be taken to stop spreading of false news. Strict action shall be taken against those who spread panic through false news. • Pre-identification, facilitating and strengthening of buildings to be used as relief camps. The infrastructure available at these camp buildings may be improved, so as to ensure a more adequate and facilitating environment. • Train and maintain a dedicated and well trained team to manage all mental and physical traumas caused to the affected population. • Ensure the availability of portable bio toilets and essential sanitary materials and cleaning machineries. • Prepare a plan for collection and distribution of relief materials • Ensure the participation of all concerned departments and professionals in relief, cleaning and rehabilitation activities. • Strengthening the existing PHCs with more staff, medicines and equipments. • Conduct geomorphologic study of landslide and flood affected areas before rehabilitation

107

• Long term plan should be prepared for the restoration of livelihood activities. • Basic awareness about disaster related issues should be given through schools, NGOs and other Govt. Machineries. • A more sophisticated and well-equipped alert and warning system should be developed.

22.LONG TERM PLAN FOR DISASTER RISK REDUCTION

• Geomorphologic study and analysis of Disaster.:- This shall be done in a structured and systematic manner so as to ensure that the contributors and triggering points are properly identified and accounted for. Data present at the disaster hit areas, shall be collected and analysed.

• Do an extensive HRV (Hazard Risk Vulnerablity) mapping of the district with particular attention to the lessons learned from this disaster

• HRV Assessment of Land slides • HRV Assessment of flooding • Identify the ecological fragile areas which are highly prone to disasters and do not disturb that area. Consider ban or restriction on construction, quarrying and land disturbances in these areas. • Encourage eco- friendly and disaster resilient construction models • Ensure advanced hospital facility inside the district to handle medical emergencies. • Implement alternative transportation facilities and road access • Build a Village Level Disaster Response Force at each of the highly vulnerable locations. This force shall be a group of Individuals from the locality, who are trained in safe evacuation techniques. These trainings shall be conducted in a systematic manner to equip atleast 25 to 40 persons from each locality who are capable of effectively 108

carrying out the rescue operations in case of any emergency without waiting for response from any other agency. A well identified rescue shelter shall also be made available at the locality, which shall be accessible during all the time without lag. This will ensure an affected population level capacity to disaster response, which will surely act as a vital catalyst in effectively managing any disaster.

23. SHORT TERM ACTIONS REQUIRED

• Rehabilitation

 Finding proper land  House repair and construction  Mission Clean Wayanad: This was a mass cleanliness drive involving people from all walks of life. This programme aimed at cleaning the Wayanad, which was battered in the recent calamities. Almost all cities and villages were cleaned through this mission. It covered each and every ward of 23 Grama panchyaths and 3 muncipalities in the district. The work included clearing of debris from roads, cleaning of drainage systems and public places, chlorination of open wells, removal of dirt and waste materials from rivers and other water sources, cleaning of government offices etc. Plastics and e-wastes were collected separately and handed over to the Clean Kerala Company. This program was coordinated by the DDMA and the District Administration with the help of Health Department, LSGD, Harithakerala mission, Kudumbashree, Suchithwa mission and other organizations. As many as 75000 volunteers including 40000 Kudumbasree workers, NGOs, government officials, residents, students and volunteers from other districts actively participated in the event. It was yet another success in the revival of wayanad.

109

• Livelihood activities shall be improved to enable the population to sustain the ill effects and maintain their normal course of life. Emphasise shall be laid on,

 Local Jobs  Agriculture  Dairying  Poultry  Education  Tourism

• Education sector also requires, particualr attention. Education kits containing bags, water bottles, pen, pencil, notebooks etc were distributed to students from the disaster affected areas. Special Scholarships may be issued to those who sustained loss in disaster. Continued special emotional support shall be given to children to come over the Post Traumatic Stress effectively. Continuous counselling and emotional handholding would be required.

 A success story from Kurichiarmala Lower Primary School: Kurichiarmala Government LP School in Pozhuthana panchayat was one institution which was got totally demolished by landslides. The access to the school was cut off completely and the entire area surrounding it was full of slush and debris. The Dsitrict Administration took on board- the Grama Panchayat, NGOs, Volunteers and Residents of the area. They worked together and converted a masjid building in to temporary school within a period of three days. This resulted in continuing the education of children without interruption in the new facility.

26. CONCLUSION: PREPAREDNESS MAKES THE DIFFERENCE

The disaster was well managed. Casualties were limited to the minimum. Human sufferings were reduced to the maximum possible extent. All resources were utilised in an effective manner. Everything was done in consonance with the provisions of Disaster Management Act 2005, the Disaster Managment Plan of the District and State/ National Disaster Managment Policies.

In a disaster, the vulnerability is always beyond the coping capacity of the affected population. Therefore, it is always important to provide, augment, suppliment and substitute facilities and resources. All these need be done without losing even a moment. The mechanism for carrying out all these things shall be made ready well in advance. All stakeholders and roleplayers shall be well equipped with knowledge and capacity. All these can be summarised to a single word, ie, Preparedness. Preparedness alone will enable successful management of disaster.

The DDMA, Wayanad was well prepared to meet the disaster. We had a very comprehensive disaster management plan, which was communicated to all the stakeholders/roleplayers well in advance. The conduct of mock drills and HRV analysis placed the DDMA in a better position to manage the situation. The DEOC was sufficieintly manned and well equipped to handle all the demands to effectively manage and mitigate the situation. The entire employees, forces, NGOs, Civil Soceity and Volunteers stood with the DDMA, at the moment of crisis, enabling it to effectively manage the disaster. As a result of the team work, lead by the DDMA, the disaster was properly managed. The lessons learned from this exercise, are placed in a nutshell in this chapter. This is an attempt to boost preparedness and meet any disaster with enhanced confidence and resolve. 134

PLANNING AND RESPONSE STRUCTURE

147

PLANNING & RESPONSE STRUCTURE

6.1 Crisis Management Frame work An effective response is the result of a comprehensive crisis management program that orchestrates well developed decision-making framework that rightly aligns various incident and site-level response activities. The ability to manage a crisis successfully is the result of understanding the risks and vulnerabilities involved, comprehensive planning, regular exercises, and a strategy for maintaining these capabilities to deal disasters regardless of type, location and intricacy.

6.2 Hazard Specific Crisis Management Plan for the District. (See section 31 (3) (b) and (d) of the Disaster Management Act, 2005)

For Wayanad district, the dominating disasters are Landslide, Flooding, Heavy rainfall, Forest Fire, Lightning, Soil Piping, Draught, Biological disasters (KFD, Leptospyrosis etc.) etc. Crisis management parameters should be wisely selected which in-turn might be an effective solution for the respective district.

6.2.1 Flooding

Flooding is a frequent disaster that occur in Wayanad. Because of the terrain specifics of the district, the low lying areas and banks of rivulets, streams etc. are prone to this disaster. Flooding in Wayanad happens mainly during the South-West monsoon period. However, there are some instances of inundation/ flooding happened because of Cloud Bursts, like the one occurred in the Ammayippalam area of SulthanBatherytaluk a couple of years ago.

6.5 Responsibility Matrix The perils of hazard has to be negated with appropriate observation and focused activities, which necessitate the need of an ever vigilance forecasting system that will help in managing the disastrous effect of a hazard.

The structural frame work starts with identifying, evaluating and assigning well defined roles and responsibilities of various authorities in managing disasters. Experiences with previous disasters make it clear, that authorities have to be sensitized prior and subsequent to an unturned event. Thus, coordination among stakeholders for effective management of disasters is essential and to ensure this, pre-planning must be done before the onset of a disaster and specific task must be assigned to each department so as to provide training in the specific areas.

MITIGATION MEASURES

Reconstruction, Rehabilitation, Capacity Building

174

RECONSTRUCTION

Reconstruciton after a disaster is a major task, which shall assimilate the lessons learned from the disaster in designing and rebuilding a disaster resilient district. With the immense support from the State Government, the DDMA is progressing steadily towards rebuilding the Disaster Resilient Wayanad. The South West Monsoon had its toll on every walk of lives in the district. Flood and landslides hit the district with unprecedented severity and gravity. However, all the disastrous events were tactfully and effectively managed. The reconstruction phase has also started and is progressing at a very good pace.

In reconstruction, the main aspects to be given importance are,

i) Ensure disaster risk reduction in the rebuild plan

ii) Ensure disaster resilience

iii) Ensure that the reconstruction is done in an environment friendly manner, so as to minimise the impact on natural resources and minimise land disturbances

iv) Those areas which witnessed landslide or landslip or landfissure or land subsidence shall be utilised for further constructions, only after assessing hazards and ensuring safety

v) Ensure that the aspirations of the local/ affected community are given due weightage in design and implementation

vi) Ensure participation of people and Local Self Governments in the reconstruction process

All these aspects are of very much importance, so as to ensure the reconstruction of a Disaster Resilient Society.

The reconstruction is not limited to civil construction works, but it includes under its ambit, a much broader activity which shall include the following among other,

i) strengthening of the Goverment and non government sectors for managing the disasters

ii) societal empowerment

iii) livelihood strengthening

iv) Design, adoption and implementation of alternative and environment friendly options in the fields of construction, waste management, livelihood, tourism, forest management, natural resource utilisation etc.

v) Incorporating disaster proofing and disaster management modules into sutatinable development projects

vi) Ensuring resource availability and proper mobilization for use in future disastrous events

175

vii) Ensuring proper conservation of environment features so as to minimise and avoid natural disasters

viii) Development of safe, cost effective and disaster resilient habitation models

Emerging environmental issues and risks

The unique and peculiar geographic and ecological features and sensitivities of the district can create risks. These risks can trigger natural disasters. Such risks get futher severity, if the activities undertaken by individuals or society or government agencies attain such a state that the disturbances to geographic and ecological features are so high to trigger a disaster. In such circumstances, proper regulatory or prohibitory measures need be taken.

Removal of canopy and cutting of hills are two major activities, which shall be regulated in strict sense, according to the relevant statutes. If it is felt that further regulations are required on these two activities, action under Disaster Management Act shall also be taken.

An example to the impact of geographic feature of Wayanad in its disaster profile can be found in the Drought in Wayanad. The average rainfall of Wayanad is 3000 mm. However, because of the terrain specifics, this water gets discharged promptly in normal rain conditions. This high speed drain of rain water results in drought in the subsequent months.

It shall also be noted that there are very visible variations and undulations in the rainfall pattern of the district. The year 2016 witnessed a 53% shortfall from the annual average figure. On the other hand, in 2018, the rainfall exceeded the average figure by leaps and bounds. Thus, the indicators of climate change effects are getting more and more visible. These variations trigger unexpected change in climatic conditions, which has a direct bearing on Agricultural productivity. As agriculture is one of the mainstays of livelihood of the population of Wayanad, these factors affect the lives in a disastrous way.

Rainfall of 3000 mm, can be well contained by the district, without causing any damage or serious disasters, provided that the rainfall is well distributed evenly allover the monsoon months plus a little surplus during the summer season. Such rainfalls can be very well accommodated within the geographical features of the district. However, the rainfalls, which have severe intensity change and skewness in its distribution over months, can cause major disastrous events such as the ones witnessed during the floods and landslides of August 2018. Such skewness in distribution can be expected in future also, owing to the global Climate Change Scenarios. Enough precautionary measures are to be deployed to successfully manage such events. Special attention need be paid to the perils which can arise from such heavily skewed rainfall such as increase in runoff resulting soil erosion and preventing penetration of water to soil.

The lowering of water table immediately after the rainfall indicates the possibility of high void formations and soil piping. These indicators shall also be considered and properly provided for, while designing Sustainable Development activities.

176

‹ The flood during south west monsoon of 2018, has demonstared various types of rainfalls with intensity, duration, and size of drops. The western ghat has already declared as prone to flash floods and cloud bursts. The spell of last and first hours of august 8 th and 9 th raised the scale upto 445mm. Minor hailstorms in the summer shower are also notable. In 2017 also hailstorms occurred in the district, which resulted in severe crop damages.

‹ The land damage incidents can be classified into three catagories: 1) landslide 2) landslip/mudslip 3) land subsidence. A total number of 278 such incidents had taken place in Wayanad. In addition, thousands of minor cases of mudslips were also noted across the length and breadth of the district.

‹ The removal of mass quantity of vegetation is seen influencing the rise of day time temperature in the district. Massive attempt for aforetation need be devised and implemented. Presence of invader species of plants in the forests and other areas of the district need also be taken care of properly.

‹ Man animal conflicts can also be minimised by strengthening the natural environment of forests and ensuring free and safe abode for wild animals.

‹ The earthquake is another important potential hazard here, and the district has been listed in the seismic zone of III with moderate damage risk (MSK VII, mapped IS- 1893(Part I) - 2002 BIS).

‹ Most of the landslide prone areas identified in the district aligns around the Bavali fault. In a landslide, masses of rock, earth or debris move down a slope. In general, landslides can be activated by storms, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, fires and human modification of land. When a mass movement of plates happen, the impact would be very severe, due to the slopes have different land use patterns. The presence of quarrying activities can also cause landslide. Iimbalances occurred between the geomorphic features like mountains and water bodies, and other land types by activities including mining, quarrying etc can end up in landslide or earthquake. For example, the cracks made by the use of explosives while quarrying into a harmful depth of the location will trigger rockslides even in very low magnitudes of shaking. In the case of Wayanad, the possibility of temblors can accelerate landslides.

‹ Interruption of streams due to various reasons also intensify landslide risk. Any activity through which massive volumes of water is stored on high lying areas shall be undertaken only after conducting a proper Hazard-Risk-Vulnerability assessment.

177

CAPACITY BUILDING

The term capacity building has multiple dimensions. This has to be consider the capacities of various sectors like:

‹ Search and rescue

‹ Camp management

‹ Resource mobilization (medicines, skilled persons, communication facilities)

‹ Man power banks

‹ Skills and interests in taking care of special attention needed groups

‹ Disaster proofing infrastructures

‹ Disaster proofing development planning

‹ Livestock management during emergencies

‹ Family preparedness planning

‹ Rescue shelter capacity improvement

‹ Communication facilities

‹ Asuring basic minimum standards in various stages of disaster events

‹ Financial stability to meet the emergency needs

‹ Public and students education in disaster and emergency management

Various training and Capacity Building programmes were conducted in the district.
