3.Disaster Management Goals (2017- 2030)

Sendai Framework

Responding to the dramatic increase in extreme weather events and

mega disasters is one of the great challenges of our present age. Rapid

urbanization and population growth in hazard–prone areas and coastal areas

make action all the more urgent. Disaster risk reduction is a top priority as we

seek to hold back the tide of rising economic and human losses. Its impact can be

catastrophic for poverty reduction and sustainable development efforts, especially

in a country like ours. Unexpected rains, causing urban flooding in many low

lying area of the district, Lightening are other forms of recurrent disasters

affecting the communities. Land use pattern in the city has also changed

drastically which adds to severity of the disaster. It is high time that every district

whether big, medium or small starts focus Sendai Framework For Disaster Risk

Reduction (2015-30) to reduce risks and vulnerabilities, to adopt systematic and

scientific planning process to mitigate disaster risks and vulnerability factors.

Building capacities of state, district and local body institution and of the

communities who lives with hazards are most important and are prelude for DRR

initiatives.

Scope and Purpose of District Disaster Management Plan

The present plan-2018 will apply to risk of (a) small-scale and large scale (b) Frequent and infrequent (c) sudden, slow and on set disasters caused by man- made or natural hazards as well as related to environmental, technological and biological hazards. It aims to guide the multi-hazard management disaster risk in development at all levels as well as within and across all sectors DDMP discussed in detailed about types of disasters prone to the district. Natural disasters related to weather like flood, lightning and thunder, disaster related to geology like earthquake, disaster related to anthropology. It also discussed about man-made

District Disaster Management Plan 2020-21 Ramanathapuram 2020

disasters like fire accident, festival stampede, epidemic outbreak etc. This will be discussed detailed in Hazard, Risk and vulnerability assessment chapter. District Disaster Management Plan discussed about management of any type of disasters, occurrence of any one disaster always brought us two or many

secondary disasters, say flood may cause epidermic outbreak, earthquake may result in fire accidents, dam failure, bridge collapse etc. Thus DDMP focus on multi-hazard management disaster risk in development at all levels as well as

within and across all sectors

Expected Outcome

Expected outcome of District Disaster Management Plan (2020-2021) is substantial reduction in disaster risk and losses in lives, livelihoods and health in the economic, physical, social, cultural and environmental assets of persons, business, communities and countries. Goal of the District Disaster Management Plan

To prevent new and existing disaster risk through implementation of integrated and inclusive economic, structural, legal, social, health, cultural, educational, environmental, technological, political and institutional measures that prevent and reduce hazard exposure and vulnerability to disaster, increase preparedness for response and recovery and thus strengthen resilience.

Targets of District Disaster Management Plan

Sendai framework target about reduction of mortality rate, reduction in affected population, reduction in economic loss, reduction in damage of properties, enhancing international cooperation, strengthening of multi-hazard warning system and accessibility and availability of information to the people by 2030. Based on the Sendai frame work, Ramanathapuram District has defined targets accordingly and listed below:-

4. Hazard Risk and Vulnerability analysis with sample Maps & link to vulnerable maps

Priority One –Understanding disaster risk

Understanding disaster risk involves types of disaster prone to Ramanathapuram district. Hazard risk and vulnerability assessment study of the Ramanathapuram District will enable to understand disaster risk. Past disaster data will support and facilitate this action. Understanding Disaster Risk of Ramanathapuram district involves.

1. Hazard Profile of the district (Study of Past disasters occurrence)

2. Types of disasters Prone to Ramanathapuram district

3. Vulnerable areas of Ramanathapuram districts (Villages/Taluk prone to various types of disasters) and preparation of vulnerable map

4. Preparation of Hazard Risk and Vulnerability Maps based on GIS application

Hazard profile of the Ramanathapuram District Ramanathapuram District has identified and assessed the various hazards and risks to public health & safety that could give rise to disasters and has identified the facilities and other elements of the infrastructure that are at risk of being affected by disasters. They can be grouped into three categories:

S.No. Classification Types of disastersTypes of disasters

Natural Flood –Urban flooding, Riverine flooding 1 Thunder, Lightning,Heavy winds & Weather related Drought 2 Geological Earthquake Epidemics 3 Biological Pest attack Food poisoning/ Hooch accidents Fire accidents- Fire works/Short Circuits/LGP 4 Accidental Explosion Stampedes

Sturctural Collapse Air Craft/Rail./Road Accidents Power failure, Water supply failure Infrastructure 5 Sewage failure Disruption Accumulation of solid waste Critical resource shortage

Occurance of Major Disaster and Damages in Ramanathapuram District

Floods have also occurred in areas, which were earlier not considered flood prone. Eighty per cent of the precipitation takes place in the monsoon months from October to December. The rivers bring heavy sediment load from catchments. These, coupled with inadequate carrying capacity of rivers are responsible for causing floods, drainage congestion and erosion of river- banks.

Ramanathapuram District The entire chapter deals about the HAZARD RISK VULNERABILITY of the Ramanathapuram District. For the first time the taluk level officials were trained about the Hazard Risk Vulnerability and template was prepared for collecting primary dates, based on format the HRVA result was prepared for the Disaster Management Plan and shared with the stakeholders. This makes the stakeholders to understand the risk and probability of disasters. This District is exposed to the following Hazards Geological Related:  This District falls under seismic zone 4 which is Low Damage Risk Zone (reference Seismic map of Tamilnadu) Water & Climate Related:  Rain, Heavy Rain, Very Heavy Rain which may result in flooding  River over flow due to various reasons which may result flooding  Dam Burst/ Failure which may result into flooding  Cyclone which may result in flooding.

The Past Experience in Dhanuskodi

On December 22, the powerful cyclone struck northern areas of Ceylon and caused catastrophic damage. According to survivors, a storm surge of 4.5 m (15 ft) swept across the area. Initial reports stated that 250 people lost their lives with thousands missing. About 5000 houses and 700 fishing boats were destroyed in the district of Ceylon. The district's paddy crop was also destroyed. Other badly hit areas include Mannar and Trincomallee. The Trincomallee port suffered severe damages rendering it inoperable. The economic damage caused in Ceylon was estimated at Rs.200 million. About 350 Ceylonese fishermen were missing at sea. At least 1,000 people were killed on the island and many more were left unaccounted for.[10] An unofficial estimate stated that the death toll would likely exceed 2,000.[8] The government regarded it as, "the greatest tragedy to ever hit Ceylon."[10] Remains of a church in Danushkodi in 2007.

The effects of the cyclone were felt mostly in Island, which lies between the Indian mainland and Ceylon.]More than 3000 people, many of them tourists and pilgrims, were stranded on the island. The total damage to property was estimated at $150 million.

On December 23, an estimated 7.6 m (25 ft) storm surge struck the town of Dhanuskodi on the south-eastern edge of the island, submerging the town and overturning the Pamban-Dhanuskodi passenger train killing all 150 passengers on board.[12] The town, an important transit point between and Ceylon, was completely destroyed and has not been rebuilt since. Prior to the cyclone, the town had been an important commercial centre with a railway station, a customs office, post and telegraphs office, two medical institutions, one railway hospital, a panchayat union dispensary, a higher elementary school and port offices. A port had been functioning since 1 March 1914. At least 800 people were killed in alone.

Four radio operators remained in Dhanuskodi and risked their lives to continue broadcasting during the storm. They were ultimately caught up in the storm surge but survived by clinging to the for 12 hours. The government later honored and rewarded them for their dedication.

Preparedness

Priority Three-Investing in disaster risk reduction for resilience

Investing in DRR – Structural Measures

Undertaking necessary structural measures is one of the major thematic areas for action for disaster risk reduction and enhancing resilience. These consist of various physical infrastructure and facilities required to help communities cope with disasters. The implementation of these measures is essential to enhance disaster preparedness, a component of Priority-4 of the Sendai Framework. It is also an important component of investing in disaster risk reduction for resilience, which is Priority-3 of Sendai Framework.

Investing in DRR – Non-Structural Measures

Sets of appropriate laws, mechanisms, and techno-legal regimes are crucial components in strengthening the disaster risk governance to manage disaster risk, which is Priority-2 of the Sendai Framework. These non-structural measures comprising of laws, norms, rules, guidelines, and techno-legal regime (e.g., building codes) framework and empowers the authorities to mainstream disaster risk reduction and disaster resilience into development activities. The central and state governments will have to set up necessary institutional support for enforcement, monitoring, and compliance.

Capacity Development

Capacity development is a theme in all the thematic areas for action. The Sendai Priority-2 (Strengthening DRR governance to manage DR) and Priority-3 (Investing in DRR for resilience) are National Disaster Management Plan central to capacity development. The capacity development includes training programs, curriculum development, large-scale awareness creation efforts, and carrying out regular mock drills and disaster response exercises. The capabilities to implement, enforce, and monitor various disaster mitigation measures has to be improved at all levels from the local to the higher levels of governance. It is also strengthening the DRR governance.

Prevention and mitigation plan

Disaster Risk Management

The UNISDR defines disaster risk management as the systematic process of

using administrative decisions, organization, operational skills and capacities to

implement policies, strategies and coping capacities of the society and communities

to lessen the impacts of natural hazards and related environmental and

technological disasters. This comprises of all forms of activities, including

structural and non-structural measures to avoid (prevention) or to limit (mitigation

and preparedness) adverse effects of hazards. A definition for the term ‘Disaster

Management’ is not included in the UNISDR’s handbook of terminology. However,

the proposed, but not yet adopted, ‘Updated Terminology on Disaster Risk

Reduction’ of UNISDR3 has proposed the following definition for the term Disaster

Management (UNISDR 2015b): “The organization, planning and application of

measures preparing for, responding to and, initial recovery from disasters.”

As per this definition, ‘Disaster Management’ focuses on creating and implementing preparedness and others plans to decrease the impact of disasters and build back better. Failure to create/apply a plan could result in damage to life, assets and lost revenue. However, it may not completely avert or eliminate the threats.

The term Disaster Management as used in the NPDM 2009 and the DM Act 2005 document is comprehensive covering all aspects – disaster risk reduction, disaster risk management, disaster preparedness, disaster response, and post- disaster recovery. This document uses the term with the same meaning as defined in the DM Act 2005.

33 | Page

District Disaster Management Plan 2020-21 Ramanathapuram 2020

“A continuous and integrated process of planning, organising, coordinating and implementing measures which are necessary or expedient" for the following:

1) Prevention of danger or threat of any disaster, 2) Mitigation or reduction of risk

of any disaster or its severity or consequences, 3) Capacity-building, 4)

Preparedness to deal with any disaster, 5) Prompt response to any threatening

disaster situation or disaster, 6) Assessing theseverity or magnitude of effects of

any disaster 7) Evacuation, rescue and relief, and 8) Rehabilitation and

reconstruction.”

Disaster Risk Reduction (Mitigation)

Disaster Risk Reduction, as per UNISDR, consists of a framework of elements that will help to minimize vulnerabilities and disaster risks throughout a society, to avoid (prevention) or to limit (mitigation and preparedness) the adverse impacts of hazards, within the broad context of sustainable development.

PREPAREDNSS MEASURES AS PER SENDAI FRAME WORK

The district administration shall identify sites for establishment of various facilities as mentioned in the IRS guidelines such as Incident Command Post, relief camp, base, staging area, camp, and helipad, for providing various services during the response. The administration will widely disseminate and publicise information about these arrangements as mandated in the SDMP and DDMP. Since disaster response operations are multifaceted, timesensitive, extremely fast-moving, and mostly unpredictable, it requires rapid assessment, close coordination among several departments, quick decisionmaking, fast deployment of human resources and machinery as well as close monitoring.

In order to prevent delays and to eliminate ambiguities with regard to chain of command, DDMP will clearly spell out the response organisation as per IRS. These plans will clearly identify the personnel to be deputed for various responsibilities in the IRT at various levels of administration along with proper responsibility and accountability framework. Provision for implementation of unified command in case of involvement of multiple agencies such as Army, NDRF, CAPF, and International Urban Teams Search and Rescue will be spelt out in the DDMP. From time to time, the DM plan will be tested and rehearsed by carrying out mock exercises.

Introduction The entire disaster management operations should be so designed that all the levels disaster control and mitigation operation starts immediately after the information of disaster striking the district is received. In other words the entire system at all the levels is self activated without requiring any directions from the district level authorities to act. For this the, role and responsibility of each of the officer at various levels of district administration has to be unambiguous, and the system should be in the state of alert during the normal flood and cyclone period.

Trigger Mechanism The trigger mechanism envisages that on receiving signals of a Disaster happening or likely to happen, all activities required for the mitigation process are energized and activated simultaneously without loss of any time and the management of the event is visible on the ground. The primary objective of the trigger mechanism is to undertake immediate rescue and relief operations and stabilize the mitigation process as quickly as possible. The trigger mechanism in fact is a preparedness plan in which all the participating officers and agencies know in advance the task assigned to them and the manner in which they have to be prepared themselves to respond. As such the organization and planning has already been taken care of. The resources are identified including manpower, material and equipment. The performers should have adequate delegation of financial and administrative powers and have the mandate for accomplishing the task.

The success of the trigger mechanism depends on the vision and perception of the planners. They are required to anticipate the likely activities with reference to the nature of the Disaster and its impact. In fact the trigger mechanism can also be called the operating standard procedures where the implementation of the efforts on ground is well laid down. Generally, the activities will include evacuation, search and rescue, temporary shelter, food, drinking water, clothing and sanitation, communications, accessibility and public information. All these major activities, which are common in all types of disasters, will require sub- division and preparation of sub-action plans by each specified authority. They will be required to list all requirements and their availability within the prescribed response time.

District Disaster Management Plan 2020-21 Ramanathapuram 2020

To sum up, the trigger mechanism is an emergency quick response mechanism like ignition switch, when energized, spontaneously sets the vehicle of management into motion on the road of Disaster mitigation.

The District Collector as the chairman of the District Disaster Management Committee activates the trigger mechanism in the district. Immediately on receipt of the warning message he starts issuing and receiving information to and from all the departments which each department is expected to pass on.

Role of district level officials:

With increasing importance on the preparedness and preventive measures for disaster mitigation, immense initiatives have been taken by appropriate authorities at various levels. A paradigm shift from relief & rehabilitation and post disaster assistance to pre disaster mitigation efforts has not gone unnoticed.

Role of District Collector:

Districts, headed by the District Collector (also known as the district magistrate ), is the focal point at the district level for directing, supervising and monitoring relief measures for disaster and for preparation of district level plans, the collector exercises coordinating and supervisory powers over functionaries of all the departments at the district level. The district disaster management committee consisting of and non-official members, including elected representatives, reviews the disaster mitigation measures in the district before, during and after any disaster. The District Collector is responsible for the district for day-to-day monitoring of the rescue and relief operations on a continuous basis.

The Collector maintains close liaison with the central government authorities in the districts, namely, army, air force and navy, ministry of water resource, etc, who supplement the effort of the district administration in the rescue and relief operation.

The Divisional Officers may approximately estimate their requirements for supply towards free rice and get sufficient stock to the godown concerned. The District Supply Officer will co-ordinate in this function also.

1.3 SUPPLY OF FOOD PACKETS TO MAROONED AREAS

The instructions in the foregoing paragraph dealt with the arrangements to be made to evacuate the people to shelter homes, to prepare food to them and take such other actions as may be necessary. At times, it may happen that a particular group of hamlets or villages may got surrounded by floods or due to inundation by sea water the correct position as to the availability of food and other articles cannot also be ascertained to all. It may also happen that food or other stuff may not also be easily taken to these areas supply of food packets will be necessary in such cases. In some cases of shelter homes, it may become necessary to supply food packets for a day atleast when the rains of floods will not even permit the cooking of food. The Revenue Divisional Officers should therefore draw out a plan in advance of the monsoon, prepare a list of hotels, special service organisations, bread makers etc., convene a meeting of them and ensure the movement. When the flood/cyclone hits the areas, the people at the Taluk Headquarters come forward to their rescue and prepare food packets for supply to the victims. The Revenue Divisional Officers should earmark particular revenue or development officer not lower in rank that a Deputy Tahsildar or

59 | Page

District Disaster Management Plan 2020-21 Ramanathapuram 2020

Extension Officer and entrust him the responsibility to keep in touch with these organizations and prepare as many number of food packets as may be necessary. The place of making, the food packets, the custody of the packets and the manner of distribution should also be settled in advance. Immediately the Revenue Divisional Officers get information about the need for supply of food packets they should order for the preparation of the packets, fixing the requirement according to the need and ensure that the Zonal Officer concerned takes delivery of the packets from the Center place and issue them to places surrounded by floods/sea water. The food packets should be transported through Boats or catamarans or by such other mode of operation as may be possible and the people marooned should be fed with food packets till to such time as the relief party enters the island and start cooking or till such, time as the victims are brought to shore by transporting them by boats or catamarans. In case of large scale supply of food packets through air, the services of helicopters will be required and the Revenue Divisional Officers should inform over wireless to the Collector who in turn will arrange to contact the Government and get the helicopter service.

In some shelter homes supply of food packets for atleast one meal may be necessary since the firewood and other things may not be ready for cooking or since the building may be leaky etc and in such cases also immediate supply of food packets for only one meal may be arranged. Out of this should be resorted to last resource since it will not be possible to prepare food packets and supply to all shelter homes.

1.4 PROVISION OF DRINKING WATER:-

In spite of improvements made under Rural Water Supply still there are some villages where people resort to tanks for drinking water. In some villages some common wells are used for drinking water purpose. At times of cyc1one/flood it -may happen that the water in the tanks gets polluted. In Municipal areas where the - population depends to the water supply department, the system may fail on account of failure of electricity and the Public may suffer due to lack of drinking water. It is the responsibility of the Municipal Commissioners in Municipal areas, the Executive Officers in Town Panchayats and the Panchayat Union Commissioners in rural areas to provide drinking water to these areas without delay. These officers should therefore

60 | Page

District Disaster Management Plan 2020-21 Ramanathapuram 2020

have with them the required number of tube wells etc., so that drinking water can be supplied immediately by drilling borewells. They should keep in touch with the officials of Tamil Nadu Water Supply and Drainage Board and be ready to provide good water in time. Pending drilling tube wells, it may be necessary to transport drinking water from the nearest town possible where water has not been spoilt or where the system has not failed. For such purposes, the Municipal authorities should keep themselves ready to transport wafer through lorries, or water tank carries so that within a short spell of time of the calamity, drinking water can be made available to the public. Spreading of epidemics, through water is a common occurrence on occasions of floods/cyclone. It is therefore necessary to chlorinate all ponds and tanks, the water of which is usually used by the villagers so that the outbreak of epidemics through water can be controlled. The Deputy Director of Health Services, Ramanathapuram and Panchayat Union Commissioners in rural areas and the Municipal Commissioners and Executive Officers in urban areas should arrange to store sufficient medicines in advance and keep their staff on alert to act wherever necessary.

1.5 . CARE OF CHILDREN.

1. As such even in normal conditions vulnerable sections of society such as children, expectant and nursing mothers deserve special attention and treatment. In case of disaster the necessity for providing special assistance to the vulnerable groups becomes more important. Nutritional depletion sickness is some of the common features of aftermath disaster. The State Disaster Plan indicates in the general evacuation plan that expectant mothers and young children should be considered with top priority and they should be given food and clothing and that in times of drought, the famine code provides for taking up similar measures for children and expectant and nursing mothers.

2. Government has a special responsibility of this vulnerable group, being a specialized type of job the task of providing special care, at the time of calamities can be entrusted to the voluntary organizations, which have specialized knowledge in the matter. At the village level the SHG’s and other child welfare organizations are generally the best suited for this task.

61 | Page

District Disaster Management Plan 2020-21 Ramanathapuram 2020

3. CHILDREN: For taking care of destitute children to the extent possible the existing schemes of the Government of India such as children homes, Poster care Names and Churches should be utilized.

4. Such Children should be given protection, as far as possible in local institutions or atleast in institutions in the adjoining area. In any case children in need of care and protection should not be sent outside the State as problems of language and cultural background.

5. Wherever possible the existing institutions should be strengthened and augmented to receive children in need for care and protection. Voluntary organizations working in this field should be identified for helping the Government machinery in absorbing all the children who require care and protection caused by the disaster.

6. Another important area which should be taken care of in the identification of Children who require immediate care and protection. For this purpose voluntary organizations specially working in the field of child welfare are the beast suited ones.

7. Health check up is yet another area, which should be taken care of. The voluntary organizations working in the area can extend assistance in this regard. Supplementary nutrition’s feeding programmes are operated in many parts of the country. Their programme may be extended to vulnerable area and area frequently affected by accrues conditions. In case of disaster the institutional facilities for supplementary nutrition programme and other nutrition programmes could be strengthened.

8. Care and protection of deserted children should be specifically provided for. The State should issue responsibility of guardianship of such children. It shall make effects to discover the natural guardians failing which it should make adequate arrangements for their placement of adoption and bringing up.

The Emergency Relief Officers concerned shall be made aware of the rescue teams available and the officer who should be contacted for the despatch of the rescue teams.

It is not possible to form rescue teams for each and every village in the low lying area and provide them with necessary equipment's though it will be an ideal one. Hence, it is proposed to form rescue parties in important centres furnished below which from the past experience are known to be vulnerable for attacks of flash flood.

RESTORATION OF THE ESSENTIAL SERVICES.

The foremost item of work to be done by the restoration and food to the victims is to restore the communications. The Divisional Engineers ( H & R.Ws.), Ramanathapuram has to work among their engineering subordinates including Panchayat Union Staff. They will ensure that the restoration of the road services is made possible within short notice of the hit of floods by felling and removing the trees or by closing the breaches or other-wise. Of course, the villagers may be permitted to fell out to remove the fallen trees to the extent necessary to allow the passage of vehicles. However, the removal of big trees fallen on large scale will have to undertaken by the engineering staff shall arrange to enlist saw men available in each locality fix up responsibility for procuring labour in the Village Administrative Officers who have not been given special relief work. At the commencement of monsoon periodical check up of the availability of saw men and cutting materials should be ensured.

INCIDENT RESPONSE SYSTEM

The Guidelines on the Incident Response System (IRS) are issued by the National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) under Section 6 of the DM Act, 2005 for effective, efficient and comprehensive management of disasters in India. The vision is to minimize loss of life and property by strengthening and standardising the disaster response mechanism in the country.

Though India has been successfully managing disasters in the past, there are still a number of shortcomings which need to be addressed. The response today has to be far more comprehensive, effective, swift and well planned based on a well conceived response mechanism.

Realisation of certain shortcomings in our response system and a desire to address the critical gaps led the Government of India (GoI) to look at the world’s best practices. The GoI found that the system evolved for firefighting in California is very comprehensive and thus decided to adopt Incident Command System (ICS).

In view of the provisions of the DM Act, 2005, NDMA felt that authoritative Guidelines on the subject, with necessary modifications to suit the Indian administrative setup, were essential. To meet this need, a core group of experts was constituted and four regional consultation workshops were conducted. It was ensured that representatives of the State Governments and MHA participate and their views given due consideration. Training Institutes like the LBSNAA, NIDM and various RTIs / ATIs along with National core trainers also participated. The adaptation of ICS by other countries was also examined. The draft prepared was again sent to all States, UTs and their final comments were obtained and incorporated. A comprehensive set of Guidelines has thus been prepared and is called the Incident Response System (IRS).

64 | Page

District Disaster Management Plan 2020-21 Ramanathapuram 2020

Definition and Context

The Incident Response System (IRS) is an effective mechanism for reducing the scope for ad-hoc measures in response. It incorporates all the tasks that may be performed during DM irrespective of their level of complexity. It envisages a composite team with various Sections to attend to all the possible response requirements. The IRS identifies and designates officers to perform various duties and get them trained in their respective roles. If IRS is put in place and stakeholders trained and made aware of their roles, it will greatly help in reducing chaos and confusion during the response phase. Every one will know what needs to be done, who will do it and who is in command, etc. IRS is a flexible system and all the Sections, Branches and Unitsneed not be activated at the same time. Various Sections, Branches and Units need to be activated only as and when they are required. The main purpose of these Guidelines is to lay down the roles and responsibilities of different functionaries and stakeholders, at State and District levels and how coordination with the multi-tiered institutional mechanisms at the National, State and District level will be done. It also emphasises the need for proper documentation of various activities for better planning, accountability and analysis. It will also help new responders to immediately get a comprehensive picture of the situation and go in for immediate action.

IRS Organisation

The IRS organisation functions through Incident Response Teams (IRTs) in the field. In line with our administrative structure and DM Act 2005, Responsible Officers (ROs) have been designated at the State and District level as overall in charge of the incident response management. The RO may however delegate responsibilities to the Incident Commander (IC), who in turn will manage the incident through IRTs. The IRTs will be pre-designated at all levels; State, District, Sub-Division and Tehsil/Block. On receipt of Early Warning, the RO will activate them. In case a disaster occurs without any warning, the local IRT will respond and contact RO for further support, if required. A Nodal Officer (NO) has to be designated for proper coordination between the District, State and National level in activating air support for response.

65 | Page

District Disaster Management Plan 2020-21 Ramanathapuram 2020

Apart from the RO and Nodal Officer (NO), the IRS has two main components; a) Command Staff and b) General Staff as shown in this Fig.

Command Staff

The Command Staff consists of Incident Commander (IC), Information & Media Officer (IMO), Safety Officer (SO) and Liaison Officer (LO). They report directly to the IC and may have assistants. The Command Staff may or may not have supporting organisations under them. The main function of the Command Staff is to assist the IC in the discharge of his functions.

General Staff

The General Staff has three components which are as follows;

Operations Section (OS)

The OS is responsible for directing the required tactical actions to meet incident objectives. Management of disaster may not immediately require activation of Branch, Division and Group. Expansion of the OS depends on the enormity of the situation and number of different types and kinds of functional Groups required in the response management.

Planning Section (PS)

The PS is responsible for collection, evaluation and display of incident information, maintaining and tracking resources, preparing the Incident Action Plan (IAP) and other necessary incident related documentation. They will assess the requirement of additional resources, propose from where it can be mobilised and keep IC informed. This Section also prepares the demobilisation plan.

66 | Page

District Disaster Management Plan 2020-21 Ramanathapuram 2020

Logistics & Finance Section (L&FS)

The L&FS is responsible for providing facilities, services, materials, equipment and other resources in support of the incident response. The Section Chief participates in development and implementation of the IAP, activates and supervises Branches and Units of his section. In order to ensure prompt and smooth procurement and supply of resources as per financial rules, the Finance Branch has been included in the LS. The Literature and operation procuders on IRS can be visited in NDMA website: IRS Command System the same is kept in the annexure 2.

Try to open control rooms, in taluks and Revenue Divisional Officer’s offices and District Headquarters. As already instructed, the officers of this Department will be visiting the irrigation sources, Dam sites and ascertain their position regarding inflow and outflow of water, storage levels etc., and see to the arrangements of strengthening the bunds etc., whenever necessary, in consultation with the technical departments. The villagers should be informed of the real situation with the least possible delay. Rumors can be avoided by giving correct and timely information. The local M.Ps and M.L.As may also be informed of the position. The Village Administrative Officers and Firka Revenue Inspectors will be held responsible for communication of messages from the village level to the Taluk Office.

Such information may also be passed on through wireless sets kept in the nearby Police Station, Panchayat Union Offices. Similarly in case of communication of Floods, Cyclones received, the Tahsildars should immediately depute the Deputy Tahsildars and other staff to check up the vulnerable points and to Commence flood relief operations. The arrangements so made should be informed to the higher officials and to the other Departmental Officers concerned without any delay. In the case of possible disaster, the people living in the area and who may be affected should be evacuated to a safer place immediately even by forcible persuasion.

The services of the local Police and other organization may be utilised for this purpose. For accommodating such people, the buildings of the Panchayat Union School, Government School, Private School etc., where there are facilities like lighting, drinking water, etc., should be utilised. Such a list of available places should be prepared now and will be kept in the Taluk Office and Panchayat Union Offices. The concerned School Management or Headmasters also should be advised of this and their concurrence taken even now to move into their premises when the need arises. A list of generators available in the area should be kept in the Taluk Office and Panchayat Union Offices and they should be utilised for lighting in the places accommodated. The owners of the generators should be approached and their consent to use the same obtained even now.

The Tahsildar should keep enough petromax and hurricane lights in the camps as stand by arrangements while rescuing, priority should be as follows:

1. Human beings

2. Cattle

3. Properties

70 | Page

District Disaster Management Plan 2020-21 Ramanathapuram 2020

All the people affected by the Floods/cyclone should be saved at all costs. For this, the Tahsildar should take all affective steps. He must keep a list of Boats and Catamarams available in his area and press all these into service immediately.

The need for Helicopters should be assessed in time ie., atleast 48 hours in advance and the same should be intimated to the Collector with a view to get them from the Naval authorities for rescuing marooned people.

The Divisional Officers may requisition motor vehicles, if necessary. During movement of relief teams, medical teams etc., the vehicle taking them should also carry the minimum requirements of food stuff and other articles that may be required urgently. The entire quantity of fuel should be utilised only for rescuing operations. Immediately after rescue, feeding arrangements should be started. To start with, Maida Bread may be supplied.

For arranging Bread, the District Supply Officer, Taluk Supply Officer must prepare and keep ready a list of Bakeries available in the Taluk and also their optimum production capacity during the times of emergency, they should be told to use all the available Wheat Flour and other items only for preparation of Bread, cutting drastically other items like Biscuits etc., For cooking, the list of places where there are facilities should be kept in the Taluk Offices and Panchayat Union Offices and the work should start immediately.

The places where rice and other edible commodities are stored should be known and details should be kept in the Taluk Office and Panchayat Union Offices. Semi-dry food like Lemon rice or Chappathi or Sambar rice may be supplied.

The Feeding arrangements should be properly and closely supervised by a responsible officer of the Revenue Department and will take the assistance of the prominent men of the local area. He should see that no complaint is received from any quarters. The second stage is assessment of the damages. A responsible person in the cadre of Deputy Tahsildar will take up this work. If the area is large, the Tahsildar will utilise the services of all Deputy Tahsildars in the Taluk. If more personnel are needed, the Divisional Officers will arrange for it.

The damages and loss to Human life, cattle, crops etc., should be assessed with the assistance of the officers of the respective departments, As the Co- ordinator in Taluk level, the Tahsildar should gather the details of the damages etc., and send very quick communication to the Collector’s office with copy to the Divisional Officers in the proforma together with any other valuable and useful

71 | Page

District Disaster Management Plan 2020-21 Ramanathapuram 2020

information to be passed on to the Special Commissioner and Commissioner of Revenue Administration and to the Government. In assessing the damages to houses and crops and other properties special care should be taken to ensure that the work is carried out properly and promptly without giving room for any future complaints. At the same time, too much of interpretation of rules should be avoided. Benefit of doubt may be given to the flood affected victims.

The local, leading people should also be associated in assessing the damages. For this purpose an all Party Committee should be formed on the spot Cash and other relief should be distributed only in their presence. Many service oriented organisations may come forward in a big way to help the flood affected people.

A list of such organisations should be kept ready in the Taluk Office and Panchayat Union Offices. These organisations should be guided in a proper manner so that all the affected people can be given relief in a systematic way. They may be provided transport, if needed. Care should also be taken for proper distribution of cloths to the victims.

Full information should be passed on immediately to the superior officers by the available means of communication. In such flood situations consumption of petrol and diesel by the vehicles drafted for flood relief operations will be heavy. The Divisional Officers and Tahsildars should instruct the local Bunk owners suitably in the matter and ensure that no fuel is used for non-relief work.

They must have adequate stock at all times for the use of the Government vehicles. In the relief camps special attention should be given to children, old people and pregnant mothers, supply of good milk to small children should be arranged speedly. Daily figures on the number of houses affected, number of persons removed to safer places, number missing or dead number of cattle lost, the amount of cash relief paid number of clothing distributed and the quantum of feeding arrangements made and by breaches in river banks noticed and the nature of flood, whether subsiding, rising and whether there is any inflow of water into irrigation sources should be reported through wireless without any delay. Incorrect figures should not bereported.

The Tahsildar should arrange for reporting the rainfall particulars to the Flood Control Room exactly by 8.00 A.M. every day. This job should be given more care and the Tahsildar should see that rainfall particulars are properly gathered and furnished to the Collector without fail.

6. PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT

The PWD Engineers have to keep close watch over the dams, rivers, Anaicut by deploying patrolling team and disseminate immediate information if excess inflow of water in river and channel is noticed.

They have to strengthen the weak portions and vulnerable points as ascertained from past experiences in the water courses. They should keep sufficient number of sand bags, along with transport facility for instant mobilization to the vulnerable places.

The North-East monsoon may settle early and the tanks in delta areas and non-delta areas may get filled up. Vigilant patrolling of the banks should be done to so as to detect any breach in canal when water flow is abnormal. Even a minor breech would cause incalculable damage by draining entire volume of water to nearby agricultural lands, houses. The need for the Flood patrolling duty has been emphasised more than once and the rules have been formed and communicated already to the officers of Public Works Department. It is therefore considered necessary to arrange for allocation of Flood duty in respect of the circle, so that there can be effective supervision and quick action whenever flood damages occur.

EMERGENCY WORK DURING FLOODS

Information of any emergency request received from the public or by any one are given immediate attention. Men and material are mobilized through the nearest Sub Division Head Quarters to the specific area within fraction of hours so that any delay could deteriorate the situation. Local participation are also encouraged in the relief works. Details of all water logging areas are collected and drainage works were immediately put to force to drain out the logged water so as to make roads free from obstructions and to provide uninterrupted traffic to migrate affected people. All wind fallen trees are immediately removed through Power saws and with required equipments. Temporary arrangements were made to make roads motorable conditions which were washed away during floods.

These Control Rooms acts as nerve centre for Disaster Management. It has three main components called the three C’s – Command, Control and Communication for effective response in emergency. Its function is to monitor co-ordinate and implement action.

RECONSTRUCTION

Long term recovery efforts must focus on redeveloping and restoring the socio-economic viability of the disaster area(s). The reconstruction phase requires a substantial commitment of time and resources by the Governments (State and Central) and other agencies. It is important to note that much of this commitment would be beyond the scope of traditional emergency management programmes. The reconstruction challenge involved would most often be the result of a catastrophic event that has caused substantial damage over a very large area and/or affected a very large population. These reconstruction efforts include:

• Reconstruction of public infrastructures and social services damaged by the disaster, which can be completed over the long-term

• Re-establishment of adequate housing to replace that has been destroyed

• Restoration of jobs/ livelihood that was lost

• Restoration of the economic base of the disaster areas

REHABILITATION

Rehabilitation, an integral part of disaster recovery; other being reconstruction, could be defined as an overall dynamic and intermediate strategy of institutional reform and reinforcement, reconstruction and improvement of infrastructure and services; aimed towards support to the initiatives and actions of the affected populations in the political, economic and social domains, as well as reiteration of sustainable development. Generally, rehabilitation package includes total reconstruction of damaged physical and psychological

78 | Page

District Disaster Management Plan 2020-21 Ramanathapuram 2020

infrastructure, as well as economic and social rehabilitation of the people in the affected region. The rehabilitation is classified into the following:

• Physical

• Social

• Economic and

• Psychological

Relocation

Population and under the guidance of the State Government shall determine

relocation needs Relocation is a very sensitive part of the physical rehabilitation

process and it must be ensured that need based considerations and not

extraneous factors should drive the relocation policy. The local authorities, in

consultation with the affected po taking into account criteria relevant to the

nature of the calamity and the extent of damage. Relocation efforts should

invariably include activities like:

• Avoid secondary displacement as far as possible

• Gain consent of the affected communities

• Clearly define land acquisition process

• Take into consideration urban/ rural land use planning before moving ahead

• Provide customized relocation packages

9. RECOVERY AND RECONSTRUCTION PLAN

Recovery Process

Disaster recovery process is not a set of orderly actions triggered by the impact of a disaster upon a community. It will consist of several related activities such as the following:

• Damage assessments • Debris clearance, removal and its environmentally safe disposal • Restoration and even upgrading utilities including communication networks • Re-establishment of major transport linkages

79 | Page

District Disaster Management Plan 2020-21 Ramanathapuram 2020

• Temporary housing • Detailed building inspections • Redevelopment planning • Environmental assessments • Demolition • Reconstruction • Integrating DRR into various development initiatives • Financial management • Economic impact analyses

S.No Major steps Process

1 Post-Disaster Preliminary assessment reports Needs Assessment and Credible Compilation and transmittal of damage and loss data Damage Disaster damage assessments led by government and assisted Assessment byhumanitarian response agencies, and the initial damage surveys leading to a comprehensive assessment

Quantitative and qualitative baseline for damage, loss, and needsacross sectors, blocks (taluka) and districts

Results monitoring and evaluation plan for recovery programSelect the most appropriate and achievable processes andmethodology for conducting early and credible damage and needsassessments

2 Developing a vision High level meetings as well as broad-based, wider consultations for Build-Back withexperts, civil society, and key stakeholders Better (BBB) Build consensus among the range of stakeholders within and outsidegovernment

3 Ensure coherence Discussions at top level to align the recovery vision with the of BBB with the government’s broader, longer term development goals and development growthand poverty reduction strategies programs and goals

District Disaster Management Plan 2020-21 Ramanathapuram 2020

4 Incorporating Consultations and background studies on: resilience and BBB Disaster resistant physical recovery in recovery vision Options for fast economic recovery Gender and equity concerns Vulnerability reduction Natural resource conservation and environmental protection Social recovery

5 Balancing recovery Balance public and private sectors BBB programs across sectors Promote norms for non-discriminatory and equitable asset disbursement among individuals and communities Prioritize infrastructure reconstruction Address the recovery of the lives and livelihoods of disaster- affectedcommunities Show sensitivity to the needs of the affected population with regard to public expectations from recovery

6 Prioritising sectors Determine relative importance of various sectors such as for recovery housing, water and sanitation, governance, transport, power, communications, infrastructure, environment, livelihoods, tourism, social protection, health, and education.

Early, Mid and Long-term Recovery

The restoration, and improvement where appropriate, of facilities, livelihoods and living conditions of disaster affected communities, including efforts toreduce disaster risk factors. UNISDR notes that recovery programmes, coupled with the heightened public awareness and engagement after a disaster, provide a valuable opportunity to develop and implement disaster risk reduction measures and to apply the BBB principle. It is an important component of risk reduction strategy and if implemented systematically, the recovery process prevents the affected community from sliding into further poverty and deprivation. While the Disaster Management Act 2005 mandates the government to carry out rehabilitation and reconstruction activities, it does not explicitly refer to ‘recovery’ as a component to be used as a part of disaster management strategy. However, the National Policy on Disaster Management Recognizes ‘recovery’ as one of the six elements within the disaster management continuum where it is linked to physical, social and economic assets within the overall context of ‘safe development’. The disaster recovery programmes usually proceed in three distinct stages to facilitate a sequenced, prioritized, and flexible multi-sectoral

81 | Page

District Disaster Management Plan 2020-21 Ramanathapuram 2020

approach. Three recovery stages, in which appropriate policies and programmes tend to be planned and implemented are: a) Early, b) Mid-Term, and c) Long-Term

The salient provisions of the recovery framework include the following:

1) Institutional arrangements: Ensuring institutional mechanisms at the national, state, district and local (urban and rural) levels that clearly defines roles and responsibilities in recovery

2) Coordination: There is considerable interdependence between stakeholders – government,international agencies, private sector, civil society organizations – in realizing the objectivesof recovery and inter-agency coordination is extremely important

3) Public-Private Partnerships (PPP): Participation of the private sector has to be leveraged forlarger public good and the Public-Private Partnerships is one effective way to facilitate the private sector involvement in recovery

4) Information and Communication Technology (ICT): Effective use of ICT in recovery programme, disseminating messages among all stakeholders, and providing information onall aspects of recovery programme.

5) Decision Support System (DSS): Setting up an adequate DSS that includes Managemen Information System (MIS), databases, deployment of spatial data management technologies

6) Pool of Expertise: Pooling of professional skills and expertise in diverse areas

7) Community Participation: Ensuring the pro-active involvement of communities, propercommunity outreach, empowerment, and gender equity in programme formulation and implementation

8) Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E): M&E is an important component required for promotingtransparency in the recovery processes and it should include technical and social audits.

Recovery Stages

Recovery Duration Brief Description Stage Early 3 – 18 Months Cash for work, resumption of markets, commerce and trade, restoration of social services, transitional and temporary shelters Mid-Term Up to 5 Years Recovery plans for assets and (concurrent with livelihoods,reconstruction plans for housing, early recovery) infrastructure, publicbuildings and cultural heritage buildings Long-Term Within 10 Years Implemented alongwith developmental plans: infrastructure strengthening, environmental, urban and regional planning

Reconstruction

Long term recovery efforts must focus on redeveloping and restoring the socio- economic viability of the disaster area(s). The reconstruction phase requires a substantial commitment of time and resources by the Governments (State and Central) and other agencies. It is important to note that much of this commitment would be beyond the scope of traditional emergency management programmes. The reconstruction challenge involved would most often be the result of a catastrophic event that has caused substantial damage over a very large area and/or affected a very large population. These reconstruction efforts include:• Reconstruction of public infrastructures and social services damaged by the disaster, which can be completed over the long-term.

10. MAINSTREAMING OF DISASTER MANAGEMENT IN DEVELOPMENT PLANS

Integrating risk reduction into development policies and plans at all levels of government including poverty reduction strategies and multi- sectoral policies and plans (Hugo Framework for Action 2005-2015) with consideration of;

• Looking critically each activity that is being planned from the perspective of reducing disaster vulnerability of that activity and minimizing the activity potential contribution to hazard specific vulnerability

83 | Page

District Disaster Management Plan 2020-21 Ramanathapuram 2020

• Factoring DRR into developmental activities in all the stages of Planning & Implementation

For the first time in 10th five year plan, Government of India has included

a separate chapter on Disaster Management and in the 11th Five year plan

stressed the need for investing in prevention and mitigation which is

economically and socially more beneficial than expenditure in relief and

rehabilitation. In continuation of efforts, further in 12th five year plan is to focus

on mainstreaming disaster risk reduction in all major schemes. The development

programmes and policies would need specifically to keep the disaster risk

reduction in mind and facing the challenges arises due to climate change. The

provisions made for mainstreaming DRR under the plan are;

• Para 10.70. Disaster risk reduction will need to be incorporated in all major schemes, specifically the flagship schemes, for reducing the vulnerability in the hazards prone areas of the country.

• Para 17.78. Along with concerted efforts to demystify and enable access to technical knowledge and skills for good quality construction, it is important that disaster risk in various locations be considered and analysed.

• Para 20.198. The Ministry of Health in its policies and programmes give due consideration to the elements of disaster management namely mitigation, preparedness, Response and Recovery. The process of mainstreaming requires analysis both of how potential hazard events could affect the performance of policies, programmes and projects and of

the impact of those policies, programmes and projects, in turn, on vulnerability to natural hazards. This analysis should lead on to the adoption of related measures to reduce vulnerability, where necessary, treating risk reduction as an integral

part of the development process rather than as an end in itself.

• Create a regional response mechanism dedicated to disaster preparedness, emergency relief and rehabilitation to ensure immediate response. • Create a regional mechanism to facilitate monitoring and evaluation of achievements towards goals and strategies.

Abstract: G.O.(Ms) No.50 Industries Department _Industries –Mines and

quarries – Minor Minerals _Amendment to rules 12(2) and 12(2A) to the Tamil Nadu Minor Minerals Concession Rules,1959-Notification – Issued. G.O says that

PWD, Dept of RD and Panchayatraj Department shall prepare a list of tanks, channels, and reservoirs and submit proposal to the District Collector for removal of clay, silt, savudu and gravels from the bed of tanks, channels and reservoirs.

6566 THAI Scheme Tamil Nadu Village Habitations Improvement (THAI) Scheme This Government has introduced the flagship programme called Tamil Nadu Village Habitations Improvement (THAI) Scheme from 2011-12 onwards to overcome the bottlenecks in the uneven distribution of resources and to provide minimum basic infrastructure facilities to all the habitations. Tamil Nadu is the only State focusing on ‘Habitation’ as the unit of development and no other State in the Country is implementing such an innovative scheme.

There are about 6 habitations on an average for each Village Panchayat in Tamil Nadu with 79,394 habitations in 12,524 Village Panchayats. However, the number of habitations varies from District to district. The average number of habitations in a Village Panchayat in The Nilgiris District is 37 whereas it is only 3 in Villupuram District. Therefore, allocation of equal amount to all the Village Panchayats, with varied number of habitations, has led to disparity in development, disproportionate distribution of assets and uneven progress. The THAI scheme has come as boon with the aim of extending the basic facilities to the grass root habitation.

Brief introduction for the scheme Government introduced the flagship programme called Tamil Nadu Village Habitations Improvement (THAI) Scheme to overcome the bottleneckks in the uneven distribution of resources and to provide minimum basic infrastructure facilities to all the habitations with ‘Habitation’ as the unit of development.

11. COMMUNITY AND OTHER STAKEHOLDERS PARTICIPANTS

The Concept of Community Based Disaster Management Plan

One of the main objectives of Disaster Risk Reduction Programme is involving community in preparing Disaster Management Plan. Increasing frequency and intensity of disasters in India, including some major disasters experienced in the recent past in Orissa and Gujarat, has made people at the highest policy level to realize the gravity of the problem and prompted a change in approach with more emphasis placed on pre-disaster preparedness and mitigation This entails a corresponding shift in focus away from conventional fire-fighting approach to disaster management towards the local-level initiatives involving a range of stakeholders.

Though the responsibility of Disaster Management is vested with the Central and State governments, it is difficult for them to deal effectively all the aspects of the disaster area and population is large, the reach of the government machinery is not adequate and considerable loss of life and property occurs due to lack of timely response. It has been the experience during recent, major disasters that where local communities as well as the local governments took initiative, the process of rescue, relief and rehabilitation was smooth and effective, where as in other areas the Government and Non-government Agencies had to face enormous problems

The High Powered Committee on Disaster Management has, in its draft policy, stated the importance of the community Based Disaster Management and the involvement of the local government.

INVOLVEMENT OF THE COMMUNITY

In the present day every individual is vulnerable and is threatened by the natural and man-made disasters, which are growing in number and variety In other words, every individual is required to be aware and also have minimum capacity to counter such crisis. This implies that entire population of a settlement or a village forms a community and has to be involved in its safeguard in the event of a crisis which has potential to affect all or majority of them.

While it is not possible to reach every individual to develop his/her capacity to counter the disasters, it is possible to approach the groups, formal or informal, to achieve the task of creating awareness and developing minimum capacity to cope up with the disaster In other words, the community based disaster management has to start at community level through the groups of people to reach out to each family level The first response to the natural hazards comes from immediate neighborhood and spreads into many settlements in the community; while the government and other organization take some time to reach them.

87 | Page

District Disaster Management Plan 2020-21 Ramanathapuram 2020

COMMUNITY BASED DISASTER PREPAREDNESS – SCOPE AND ACTIVITIES

The community based disaster preparedness (CBDP) is a process to capacitate communities to prevent, mitigate and cope with disasters effectively. The process is designed, managed and owned by the communities. Other agencies like Government agencies, public and private corporate bodies, NGOs, International agencies / donors etc play the role of facilitators.

The Disaster Preparedness process embraces measures that enable governments, communities and individuals to respond rapidly to disaster situations to cope with them effectively. Preparedness includes the formulation of viable emergency plans effective warning systems, maintenance of inventories and the training of personnel. It may also embrace search and rescue measures as well as evacuation plans for areas that may be at ‘risk’ from a recurring disaster.

Initiatives taken by DDMC

• District Disaster Management Committee has directed Taluks, Blocks, village Panchayats to prepare Community Based Disaster Management Plan.

• It is also instructed to form disaster management teams by including community members like early warning teams, search and rescue team, evacuation team, medical team, carcass disposal team, water and sanitation team etc.

• Periodical training will be scheduled to give to the members of the teams

17. Disaster and its Kinds Do’s and Don’ts

FLOODS

Flooding is one of the natural disasters that threaten the lives and economic well being of Indians. A flood is caused when water inundates land, which is normally dry. While the pattern of flooding varies, there are few areas of the country where the community is not at risk. Flood warning is one way of reducing the damaging impact of floods. Following a flood warning for your area, typical actions you should take as a volunteer include giving instructions and increasing awareness about the dangers and preparedness measures, such as:

. All members of a community should know the safe route to nearest shelter/ raised pucca house.

. Move valuable/personal items to a safe place above expected flood level. Open doors of refrigerators and other heavy airtight items that could float, tip over and be damaged

. Switch off electricity and gas at supply points to the building.

. Protect/relocate stock and equipment in commercial/industrial premises.

. Have an emergency kits on hand which includes:

. A portable radio, torch and spare batteries.

. Stocks of fresh water, dry food (chura, mudi, gur, biscuits), kerosene, candle and matchboxes.

. Waterproof or polythene bags for clothing and valuables, an umbrella and bamboo stick (to protect from snakes), salt and sugar. A first aid kit, manual and strong ropes for tying things.

The earlier you act and increase awareness about the preparedness measures, the better you will be prepared. Both during and after a flood keep tuned to your radio Where possible, you will be kept up to date with the likely duration and level of flooding and when it is over you will receive advice from local authorities on where to obtain medical care, assistance with food, clothing, shelter and how best to help yourself and your community recover.

170 | Page

District Disaster Management Plan 2020-21 Ramanathapuram 2020

DURING FLOODS

. Encourage drinking of boiled water.

. Make sure that all the food is kept covered, don’t take heavy meals. Use raw tea, rice-water, tender coconut-water, etc. during diarrhoea; contact your ANM/AWW for ORS and treatment. Do not let children remain on empty stomach.

. Give instructions to use bleaching powder and lime to disinfect the surrounding.

. As a volunteer, help the officials distribute relief materials.

AFTER THE FLOOD - VITAL POINTS

Floodwater can be extremely polluted and as a volunteer it is essential to spread awareness of the following in the affected areas, so as to follow these rules to reduce riskof injury, sickness or infection:

. Do not eat food, which has been in contact with floodwater.

. Boil all water until supplies have been declared safe.

. Do not handle wet electrical equipment.

. Avoid wading even in shallow water as it may be contaminated - if you must enter shallow floodwater, wear solid boots or shoes for protection.

. Beware of snakes and spiders, which may move to drier areas in your house.

. Check with police for safe routes before driving anywhere.

171 | Page

District Disaster Management Plan 2020-21 Ramanathapuram 2020

Water Depth and Current

The great majority of the deaths from flooding result from people attempting to drive, walk, or swim through floodwaters. Floodwater depth and current are easily misjudged and are capable of sweeping away and submerging even largevehicles. Also in small streams the water level can change suddenly. Some death has even resulted from people camping in, or near, normally dry riverbeds. Peoplehave also died when flash floods occur in storm water drains and irrigation channels.

Hidden Dangers

Many of those thought to have drowned in floods, especially flash floods,

may actually have been killed by the violence of the water, oras a result of

having been struck by, or having struck and object in the water or the river

bed. Thus, simply being a good swimmer may not be enough to survive.

THEREFORE DO NOT ENTER OR DRIVE INTO FLOOD WATERS, especially

where an obvious current exists. If your vehicle becomes stranded in

floodwater, leave it and move to higher ground before the water level rises

further. BE AWARE of other potential injuries or adverse effects from

floodwaters such as:

. Possibility of exposure (hypothermia) after becoming soaked;

. Risk of illness after drinking from water supplies polluted by sewage and other hazardous wastes in urban and recreation areas;

. Injuries from vehicle accidents caused by road washouts, soft edges and damaged bridges; and

. Electrocution by overhead or fallen power lines. If in a boat on floodwater, be aware of power lines. They may be dangerously close to an aerial, mast, cabin, etc, or may even be in the water.

District Disaster Management Plan 2020-21 Ramanathapuram 2020

INITIAL STEPS

It may take months, rather than weeks, to get a house back into its original condition. However it is important to start work just as soon as the rain stops and the water has receded. As a volunteer, your duties include giving instructions and increasing awareness about the dangers and preparedness measures that need to be done as quickly as possible:

. Clear up, drain and start drying out the house as soon as floodwaters recede. . Take out everything that is wet and that can be moved - floor coverings, furniture, bedding and clothing.

. On dry days, keep all doors and windows open. On wet days, leave windows slightly open.

. Drain away water under the house, and try to increase the airflow there to assist drying.

. Check for trapped water and mud in wall cavities, as well as areas such as shower trays, baths, benches and bottom shelves.

WARNING

The hints given assume there is no structural building damage such as leaning walls or foundation damage. If there are any signs that the house has moved on its foundations - buckled floors, new cracks in the walls, out-of-shape doorframes, consult a qualified structural engineer or building consultant.

CLOUD BURSTS

It is a sudden occurrence and severe heavy rain and of very high intensity in a limited place. It creates a sudden flood in both plain and hilly areas, causes big landslides, brings down boulders, and uproots trees. Due to this, torrential rain occurs in a limited area.

173 | Page

District Disaster Management Plan 2020-21 Ramanathapuram 2020

Cloudbursts cause heavy damages in the flood prone plain areas. Due to sudden rain or water flow, breaching of banks and over flowing of dams could happen.It causes landslide, traffic obstruction and damages to houses.Periodically, in the cloud burst areas, people have to construct houses in higher elevation than in flood prone places. This has to be enforced very strictly for saving the people. People should avoid rivers and drainage channels during cloud burst as sudden flooding may endanger their lives. Cloudbursts bring a lot of debris and boulders, and silt larger areas and make it uncultivable. The most vulnerable areas could be the plains adjoining the hills.

THUNDER & LIGHTNING

Thunder is the sound that follows a flash of lightening and is caused by sudden expansion of the air in the path of the electrical discharge.

DURING THUNDERSTORMS

Lightning claims quite a few lives and injures many every year. Quite a large number of injuries from the electric shock received while using fixed telephones during thunderstorms.

TAKE ACTION NOW

Consult an electrician for advice on lightning conductors required for your house.

IF CAUGHT OUTDOORS

If you hear thunder 10 seconds after a lightning flash, it is only about three kilometres away. The shorter the time, the closer the lightning, so find shelter urgently.

174 | Page

District Disaster Management Plan 2020-21 Ramanathapuram 2020

As a volunteer you must make sure you give instructions and increase awareness about the dangers associated with thunderstorms and lightening and preparedness measures, such as:

Seek shelter in a hardtop (metal-bodied) vehicle or solid building but avoid small open structures or fabric tents.

Never take shelter under a small group of (or single) tree(s).

If far from any shelter, crouch (low, feet together), preferably in a hollow. Remove metal objects from head / body. Do not lie down flat but avoid being the highest object.

If your hair stands on end or you hear `buzzing’ from nearby rocks, fences, etc, move immediately. At night, a blue glow may show if an object is about to be struck.

. Do not fly kites during thunderstorms.

. Do not handle fishing rods, umbrellas or metal rods, etc.

. Stay away from metal poles, fences, clotheslines etc.

. Do not ride bicycles or travel on open vehicles.

. If driving, slow down or park away from trees, power lines, stay inside metal-bodied (hard top) vehicles or in a pucca building but do not touch any metal sections.

. If in water, leave the water immediately.

. If on a boat, go ashore to a shelter as soon as possible.

. Be sure the mast and stays of the boat are adequately secured.

IF YOU ARE INDOOR’S

. Before the storm arrives, disconnect external aerial and power leads to radios and television sets. Disconnect computer modems and power leads.

. Draw all curtains and keep clear of windows, electrical appliances, pipes and other metal fixtures (e.g. do not use the bath, shower, hand basin or other electric equipments)

175 | Page

District Disaster Management Plan 2020-21 Ramanathapuram 2020

 Avoid the use of fixed telephones. In emergencies, make calls brief, (do not touch any metal, brick or concrete) and do not stand bare foot on concrete or tiled floors.

FIRST AID

Apply immediate heart massage and mouth-to-mouth resuscitation to lightning victims until medical help arrives. (You won’t receive a shock from the victim).

LIGHTNING FACTS AND MYTHS

. When struck, people do not glow or fry to a crisp but the heart and breathing are often affected.

. Only about 30% of people struck actually die, and the incidence of long- term disability is low, particularly when appropriate first aid is applied promptly.

. If your clothes are wet, you are less likely to be seriously injured if struck, as most of the charge will be conducted through the wet clothes rather than your body.

. Lightning can, and often does, strike more than once in the same place.

HEAT WAVES

Heat Wave conditions can result in physiological strain, which could even result in death. Orissa experienced severe heat wave conditions during April to mid June in 1998, and nearly 2,000 people died of heat stroke. To minimise the impact during the heat wave and to prevent serious ailment or death because of heat stroke, you can as a volunteer give instructions and increase awareness about the dangers and preparedness measures, such as the following measures:

. Avoid going out in the sun, especially between 12.00 noon and 3.00 p.m.

. Drink sufficient water and as often as possible, even if not thirsty

. Wear lightweight, light-coloured, loose, and porous cotton clothes. Use

176 | Page

District Disaster Management Plan 2020-21 Ramanathapuram 2020

. Protective goggles, umbrella/hat, shoes or chappals while going out in sun. Avoid strenuous activities when the outside temperature is high. Avoid working outside between 12 noon and 3 p.m. While travelling, carry water with you.

. Avoid alcohol, tea, coffee and carbonated soft drinks, which dehydrates the body.

. Avoid high-protein food.

. If you work outside, use a hat or an umbrella and also use a damp cloth on your head, neck, face and limbs Do not leave children or pets in parked vehicles

. If you feel faint or ill, see a doctor immediately.

. Use ORS, homemade drinks like lassi, torani (rice water), lemon water, buttermilk, etc. which helps to re-hydrate the body.

. Keep animals in shade and give them plenty of water to drink.

. Keep your home cool, use curtains, shutters or sunshade and open windows at night.

. Use fans, damp clothing and take bath in cold water frequently.

TIPS FOR TREATMENT OF A PERSON AFFECTED BY SUNSTROKE:

. Lay the person in a cool place, under a shade. Wipe her/him with a wet cloth/wash the body frequently. Pour normal temperature water on the head. The main thing is to bring down the body temperature.

. Give the person ORS to drink or lemon sarbat/torani or whatever is useful to re-hydrate the body.

. Take the person immediately to the nearest health centre. The patient needs immediate hospitalisation, as heat strokes could be fatal.

District Disaster Management Plan 2020-21 Ramanathapuram 2020

ACCLIMATISATION

People at risk are those who have come from a cooler climate to a hot climate. You may have such a person(s) visiting your family during the heat wave season. They should not move about in open field for a period of one week till the body is acclimatized to heat and should drink plenty of water. Acclimatization is achieved by gradual exposure to the hot environment during heat wave.

DROUGHTS

Droughts are slow creeping disasters. Of all disasters, droughts have the greatest potential economic impact and can affect the largest number of people. Droughts affect large geographical areas – often covering whole countries or parts of continents – they may last for months and in some cases several years. They invariably have a direct and significant impact on food production and the overall economy. A drought is a slow onset natural hazard and it offers time and opportunity to mitigate its impact. Drought connotes a situation of scarcity and distress usually caused by prolonged failure of rains, affecting agricultural activities adversely, leading to loss of production and employment, drinking water shortages, deficiency in fodder supply, etc.

Consequential effects are migration of people in search of an alternative employment or livelihood.

Typical adverse effects of droughts are:

. Reduced income for farmers

. Negative impact on agricultural economy

. Negative impact on nutritional status

. Increased stress and morbidity if migration occurs

. Loss of water quality and quantity

. Negative social impact

As far as action points for the district administration are concerned, it would be useful to distinguish between widespread and prolonged droughts calling National or State level policies, and, the more frequently occurring local level scarcities. The two major reasons for onset of drought are the failure of monsoons, and inadequate water conservation efforts.

District Disaster Management Plan 2020-21 Ramanathapuram 2020

POSSIBLE RISK REDUCING MEASURES

To reduce the risk of transitory food insecurity due to drought, it is necessary to protect people’s access to food through:

. Ensuring the availability of food in the affected areas, and

. Protecting the entitlements of all groups within the affected population.

. Some of the principal measures for maintaining food security during

. droughts are:

. Price Stabilization

. Food subsidies

. Employment creation programs

. General food distributions

. Supplementary feeding programs

. Special programs for livestock and pastorals populations

. Complementary water programs

. Complementary health programs

POST DROUGHT ASSISTANCE

The affected population must be assisted to replace assets lost during the period of temporary food insecurity and where this is realistic to re-establish their livelihoods. The severity of this food insecurity episode will determine the nature and scale of the rehabilitation requirements. Thus, if migration to camps and significantly increased mortality has occurred, then a comprehensive rehabilitation program will be required. This may involve:

. Health care counseling

Assisting the migrants back to their homes

. Material support to re-establish their homes and productive activities. Such provisions may include seeds, tools, cooking utensils, blankets, and support until households are capable of supporting themselves.

179 | Page

District Disaster Management Plan 2020-21 Ramanathapuram 2020

If the impact of the temporary food insecurity episode has not been severe and most households have not been obliged to sell productive assets (e.g. consume seed stocks and breeding livestock) then a rehabilitation program may not be required. Rehabilitation needs should therefore be carefully assessed and intervention tailored to the particular situation.

GEOLOGICALLY RELATED DISASTERS

EARTHQUAKES

Earthquakes are a shaking or trembling of the earth that is volcanic or tectonic in origin. Earthquakes usually give no warning at all.Prepare your family before the earthquake. It is better to be prepared before hand. So now is the time to formulate a safety plan for you and your family. If you wait until the earth starts to shake, it may be too late. As a volunteer, give instructions and increase awareness about the dangers and preparedness measures, such as the following safety measures:

. Always keep the following in a designated place: bottled drinking water, non-perishable food (chura, gur, etc), first-aid kit, torchlight Keep battery-operated radio with extra batteries.

. Teach family members how to turn off electricity, gas, etc.

. Identify places in the house that can provide cover during an earthquake.

. It may be easier to make long distance calls during an earthquake Identify an out-of-town relative or friend as your family’s emergency contact. If the family members get separated after the earthquake and are not able to contact each other, they should contact the designated relative/friend. The address and phone number of the contperson/relative should be with all the family members.

SAFEGUARD YOUR HOUSE

. Consider retrofitting your house with earthquake-safety measures. Reinforcing the foundation and frame could make your house quake resistant. You may consult a reputable contractor and follow building codes.

. Kutchha buildings can also be retrofitted and strengthened.

District Disaster Management Plan 2020-21 Ramanathapuram 2020

DURING EARTHQUAKE

Earthquakes give no warning at all. Sometimes, a loud rumbling sound might signal its arrival a few seconds ahead of time. Those few seconds could give you a chance to move to a safer location. Here are some tips for keeping safe during a quake.

 Take cover. Go under a table or other sturdy furniture; kneel, sit, or stay close to the floor. Hold on to furniture legs for balance. Be prepared to move if your cover moves.

 If no sturdy cover is nearby, kneel or sit close to the floor next to a structurally sound interior wall. Place your hands on the floor for balance.

 Do not stand in doorways. Violent motion could cause doors to slam and cause serious injuries. You may also be hit be flying objects. Move away from windows, mirrors, bookcases and other unsecured heavy objects.

 If you are in bed, stay there and cover yourself with pillows and blankets

 Do not run outside if you are inside. Never use the lift.

 If you are living in a kutcha house, the best thing to do is to move to an open area where there are no trees, electricity or telephone wires.

IF OUTDOORS:

. Move into the open, away from buildings, streetlights, and utility wires. Once in the open, stay there until the shaking stops.

. If your home is badly damaged, you will have to leave. Collect water, food, medicine, other essential items and important documents before leaving.

. Avoid places where there are loose electrical wires and do not touch metal objects that are in touch with the loose wires.

. Do not re-enter damaged buildings and stay away from badly damaged structures.

181 | Page

District Disaster Management Plan 2020-21 Ramanathapuram 2020

IF IN A MOVING VEHICLE:

 Move to a clear area away from buildings, trees, overpasses, or utility wires, stop, and stay in the vehicle. Once the shaking has stopped, proceed with caution. Avoid bridges or ramps that might have been damaged by the quake.

AFTER THE QUAKE

Here are a few things to keep in mind after an earthquake. The caution you display in the aftermath can be essential for your personal safety.

. Wear shoes/chappals to protect your feet from debris

. After the first tremor, be prepared for aftershocks. Though less intense, aftershocks cause additional damages and may bring down weakened structures. Aftershocks can occur in the first hours, days, weeks, or even months after the quake.

. Check for fire hazards and use torchlights instead of candles or lanterns.

. If the building you live in is in a good shape after the earthquake, stay inside and listen for radio advises. If you are not certain about the damage to your building, evacuate carefully. Do not touch downed power line.

. Help injured or trapped persons. Give first aid where appropriate. Do not move seriously injured persons unless they are in immediate danger of further injury. In such cases call for help.

. Remember to help your neighbours who may require special assistance- infants, the elderly, and people with disabilities.

. Listen to a battery-operated radio for the latest emergency information.

. Stay out of damaged buildings.

. Return home only when authorities say it is safe. Clean up spilled medicines, bleaches or gasoline or other flammable liquids immediately. Leave the area if you smell gas or fumes from other chemicals. Open closet and cupboard doors cautiously.

182 | Page

District Disaster Management Plan 2020-21 Ramanathapuram 2020

. If you smell gas or hear hissing noise, open windows and quickly leave the building. Turn off the switch on the top of the gas cylinder.

. Look for electrical system damages - if you see sparks, broken wires, or if you smell burning of amber, turn off electricity at the main fuse box. If you have to step in water to get to the fuse box, call an electrician first for advice.

. Check for sewage and water lines damage. If you suspect sewage lines are damaged, avoid using the toilets. If water pipes are damaged, avoid using water from the tap.

. Use the telephone only for emergency calls.

. In case family members are separated from one another during an earthquake (a real possibility during the day when adults are at work and children are at school), develop a plan for reuniting after the disaster. Ask an out of state / district relative or friend to serve as the “family contact”. Make sure everyone in the family knows the name, address, and phone number(s) of the contact person(s).

LAND SLIDES

A landslide is the downward and outward movement of slope forming material, composed of natural rocks, soils, artificial fills or combination of these materials. Landslides, in a strict sense, do not include creep phenomena or subsidence but usually these are considered along with landslides because of their relation to instability of slope. Factor causing landslides

 Geological  Hydrological  Seismic  Land use  Unscientific land use and land management practices  Improper drainage system  Cultivation on steep slopen andindiscriminate Construction activities on steep slopes  Steep road cuts

183 | Page

District Disaster Management Plan 2020-21 Ramanathapuram 2020

 Deforestation etc.  Effect Slope failure resulting in frequent road blocks  Affect power generation units  Loss of lives and properties  Siltation in lakes and reservoirs  Affect trade and tourism  Affect other developmental, cultural and economic activities Precautionary measures Adopted Cultivated lands.  Land capability based land use and land management practices  Diversion of water from unprotected areas  Development and management of steep slopes  Graded bunding and trenching  Bench terracing (inward sloping)  Vegetative or bio-engineering measures  Puertorican type of terrace with Guatemala, Napier grass  Vegetative hedges across slope  Well planned lateral and vertical drains, toe drains, drop pits for safe disposal of runoff water . Tea plantation . Staggered contour trenching . Radial and vertical drains . Mulching . Vegetative barriers . Inter cropping of cover crops like beans . No need of demolishing benches for tea

Residential development/construction activities

. Proper town planning

. Landslide zonation

. Avoid encroachments on steep slope

. Slope stabilization measure

184 | Page

District Disaster Management Plan 2020-21 Ramanathapuram 2020

Watch out for:

. New springs, seepage or saturated ground in areas

. Unusual bulge or cracks on the ground

. Movement of soil away from foundation

. Tilting or crack on concrete floor and foundation

. Leaning telephone poles, trees, retaining wall or fences

. Sunken road beds

. Rapid increase in creek water levels accompanied by increased turbidity Sticking doors and windows and visible open spaces indicating jambs and frames out of plumb

Areas vulnerable to landslides

On existing landslides

. On or at base of hill slopes

. At the base or top of an old fill slope

. At the base or top of a steep slope

. Become familiar with the land around you

What to do during a landslide?

 Quickly move out of the path of the landslide or debris flow. Moving Away from the path of the flow to a stable area will reduce your risk.

 If escape is not possible, curl into a tight ball and protect your head. A tight ball will provide the best protection for your body.

What to do after a landslide?

 Stay away from the slide area. There may be danger of additional slides.

. Check for injured and trapped persons near the slide, without entering the direct slide area. Direct rescuers to their locations.

. Help a neighbour who may require special assistance infants, elderly people, and people with disabilities.

. Elderly people and people with disabilities may require additional assistance.

. Who have large families may need additional assistance in emergency situations.

. Listen to local radio or television stations for the latest emergency information.

. Watch for flooding, which may occur after a landslide or debris flow. Floods sometimes follow landslides and debris flows because they may both be started by the same event.

. Look for and report broken utility lines to appropriate authorities. Reporting potential hazards will get the utilities as quickly as possible, preventing further hazard and injury.

. Check the building foundation, chimney, and surrounding land for damage.

. Damage to foundations, chimneys, or surrounding land may help you assess the safety of the area.

. Replant damaged ground as soon as possible since erosion caused by loss of ground cover can lead to flash flooding.

. Seek the advice of a technical expert for evaluating landslide hazards or designing corrective techniques to reduce landslide risk.

ACCIDENT RELATED DISASTERS URBAN & RURAL FIRES

Urban fires are manmade disasters, and lives and properties worth millions

of rupees are lost. The phases in the development of an urban fire are outbreak,

development, spread, and extinction. Besides cataclysmic natural events, urban

fires are caused by electrical faults (in an estimated 35-40 percent of cases),

human carelessness or malevolence, the lack of supervision of a naked flame, or

the uncontrolled product of a chemical or physical reaction. Once the flame is

ignited it would either go out by itself or spread in its initial surroundings at a

variable speed. The materials encountered are likely to vary in terms of their

abundance, flammability and calorific potential. As it develops, the fire would

produce heat and hot gases, which are potentially toxic or chemically aggressive.

The spread of fire in urban areas depends on the structure and materials of

buildings, their volumes and partitions or spacing. Doors, windows, facades, ducts and holes may provide shafts that act as vectors for the spread of the fire. The risk to people, rather than property, depends on their location and concentration, their

perception of the hazard, and the potential for rapid evacuation via safe routes. Particular problems are likely to result from the rapid destruction early in the fire of “nerve centers” such as communications headquarters and the nodes of

warning systems.

The risk can be reduced greatly by structural and non-structural measures.

Extinguishers, sprinklers, hoses, evacuation routes, and fire sensors are all well

known structural approaches. Evacuation drills designed for cases of fire hazard can be combined with those created for natural hazards such as earthquakes.Firehazards can be investigated in terms of all phases, producing information on whereand when fires are likely to break out, how they are likely to develop and spread andwith what degree of rapidity this is likely to occur. Fire- fighting plans must be basedon this sort of knowledge and prediction.

Fire leads to:

. High intensity of heat

. High concentration of smoke

. Generation of toxic and noxious fumes

. Explosion

. Building collapses/structural damage Disruption of essential services like water/Food/Medicine/Communication/Transport/Power supply.

FIRE PROTECTION/RESCUE

. Identification of high risk areas

. Installations of hydrants

. Provision of static water tanks

. Provision of passive and active fire protection system Provision of adequate means of escape with exit signs

. Establishment of fire station with proper adequate appliance and equipment/manpower

. Co-ordination with other essential services by local administration (water

. Supply, electricity, PWD, etc.)

. Proper communication network.

ELECTRICAL DISASTERS

Electricity is a necessity in our lives – just think of all the ways we benefit from electrical power on a daily basis. Electricity is readily accessible and safe when used properly, it is still important to follow necessary safety precautions.

District Disaster Management Plan 2020-21 Ramanathapuram 2020

USE ELECTRICITY SAFELY

If an appliance emits smoke or has an unusual smell, unplug it immediately and have it repaired. Replace any electrical cord that is cracked or frayed. Do not overload extension cords or run them under rugs.

. Do not tamper with fuses. This is a potential fire hazard.

. Do not overload circuits. Overload may cause the wires to heat and may ignite insulation or other combustibles.

. Replace or repair electrical appliances that over heat, spark, smoke, or have cracked or frayed cords.

. Wiring installations should always be made by a licensed electrician or other qualified person.

. Use light bulbs of the wattage recommended for your lamp and ceiling fixtures.

. Never break off the third prong of a plug.

. Do not use extension cords for permanent wiring. They may not be able to carry the load.

. Ensure lamps are free from contact with inflammable material.

SOME DO’S and DONT’S

Remember, electricity always tries to reach the ground. It travels over “conductors” or anything that allows electricity to flow. People, water, trees, damp ground, and metal are excellent (bad for people) conductors. An insulator is the opposite of a conductor. As a volunteer, your job includes giving instructions and increasing awareness about the dangers, such as:

189 | Page

District Disaster Management Plan 2020-21 Ramanathapuram 2020

. Touching a faulty appliance, plug, or bare wire can make you part of the electric circuit and put you at risk of electric shock.

. Frayed wires are dangerous anywhere. They should be repaired at once, or better yet, replaced.

. Replace inflexible electric cords.

. Repair any appliance that sparks, emits smoke, or shocks you.

. Don’t use any appliance while you’re touching metal pipes and faucets or anything wet.

. Outlets near water sources (bathrooms, kitchen sinks, garages, outdoors) should be product.

. Never touch an electric cord or appliance while your hands are wet.

. Unplug appliance before cleaning them or removing anything from them.

. Don’t yank the cord when unplugging appliances.

. Keep work areas clean. Oily rags, newspapers, and sawdust can catch fire from electric sparks.

. Never overload a circuit with high-voltage appliances. Check the voltage on

your appliance labels and be sure the combined voltage of all the

appliances you want to plug into the same circuit does not exceed the

circuit rating.

. Never use electric power tools or appliances in the rain or while standing in water.

. For outdoor locations, use only lights, cords, and fixtures intended for outdoor use.

. NEVER USE WATER on an electrical fire! Water can carry the electricity back to you and you could receive a deadly shock.

 Finally, having a working smoke alarm dramatically increases your chances of surviving a fire. And remember to practice an escape plan frequently.

INDOORS SAFETY TIPS

To be safe, it is recommended that wiring be installed and/or inspected by a licensed electrician. Your house or apartment may be inadequately wired if:

 Lights dim and motor are slow down when an appliance goes on.

 Fuses blow or circuit breakers trip frequently.

 Toasters or irons fail to heat properly.

 The television picture shrinks.

 Turn main power off before replacing a fuse or adjusting circuit breakers.

 Never pull a plug out by the cord.

 Regularly check wires, extension cords and appliances for signs of wear.

 Use appliances and power tools with three pronged plugs.

 Never touch appliances, wires or electrical switches with wet hands or feet.

 Turn television set and other appliances off during a lightning storm.

 If there are small children in your house, use plastic safety caps in unused outlets.

 Never insert a metal object into an appliance without disconnecting the appliance.

 Fire fighting in case of electrical fire, fire-fighting medium should be non- conductive and non-magnetic.

 Never build a shed or other structure under the power line leading to your house.

ROAD ACCIDENTS

Road accidents are a major killer and take place without any warning. Accidents may involve passenger vehicles, goods vehicles, vehicles carrying hazardous and toxic materials. The damage therefore may involve injuries and deaths, chemical spills, fires or release of toxic gases.

Data on road accidents reportedly indicate that 70% of road accidents arise from driver’s failure. Apart from this factor, the generic reasons are

. Poor road conditions . Mixed traffic . Poor vehicle maintenance . Carelessness in driving . Lack of safety belts and helmets . Poor emergency services . Absence of pedestrian amenities.

ACCIDENT SITE

In the event of an accident involving passenger vehicles, those at the accident site should follow the following priorities:

. Look for and rescue the injured or those trapped in the vehicles

. Arrange for transport of the injured to the nearest medical care centre.

. Place the dead bodies on one side to avoid obstructions.

. Organise locally, traffic control using the available manpower to avoid traffic jams.

. Discourage people from crowding near the accident spot.

. Discourage people from looting the goods from the accident vehicle. Arrange to inform the nearest traffic police station/post through passing vehicles on either side.

District Disaster Management Plan 2020-21 Ramanathapuram 2020

MEASURES THAT NEED TO BE TAKEN

. All two-wheeler drivers, including pillion riders must always wear the right kind of protective headgear.

. Drunken driving/liquor availability and sales all along the highway are the cause for accidents. This should be restricted.

. Awareness to be created among pedestrians regarding cross the roads, etc. Burning the vehicle involved in the accident and beating the /crew by the local people to be checked.
