Sri Himansu Roy Sabhadhipati, South Tripura Zilla Parishad MESSAGE I am to pay my heartiest congratulation to the District Disaster Management Authority of South Tripura District regarding publication of District Disaster Management Plan for the 2016-17. It is known to all that Tripura as well as North Eastern area is highly risk Earthquake prone zone. So parts of public think that District Disaster Management Authority is working only Earthquake or Tsunami. But it is necessary known to all that DDMA localize all types of disaster and to the maximum extent possible contain and minimum the impact of life I hope this issue will help the general public and Govt. official for sensitizing against any types of Disaster. (Sri Himansu Roy) 2

C.K. JAMATIA, IAS District Magistrate & Collector MESSAGE I am happy that the DDMA, South Tripura District is publishing the District Disaster Management Plan for the year 2016-17. It reflects the current holistic approach of disaster mitigation and preparedness as envisaged in the Disaster Management Act, 2005, The objective of the DDMA is to enable effective and prompt response to disaster, ensure better preparedness through effective coordination of key agencies and line departments, taking up of sustained mitigation activities, maintenance of inventories of resources, and regular monitoring and evaluation of disaster management activities in the district. The DDMP has been prepared as per the guidelines issued by the State Disaster Management Authority. It has collated all the relevant information from various key agencies and line departments. I urge all the agencies and departments to act as per the roles and responsibilities laid down in the DDMP to ensure coordinated efforts towards the best possible disaster mitigation and preparedness in South Tripura District. (C.K. Jamatia,IAS) 3

T. Debbarma Superintend of Police MESSAGE I am glad to learn that DDMA, South Tripura District is publishing District Disaster Management Plan for the year 2016-17. Which is a unique effort and task made by DDMA, South Tripura District. Disaster is a unpredicted natural and manmade calamity. It claims lives and properties. It affects human society. During such disaster humanity suffers emotionally, economically and environmentally. But it is true that human being can save their lives and properties from such disaster if he/she is possesses little knowledge of it. We may not have enough knowledge about the unforeseen disaster but should share tiny knowledge and awareness of adopting the way to escape when such disaster occurs. In this splendid moment of opportunity, I am imperative with all that people to aware about the effect and way to escaping from such disaster. 4 (T.Debbarma)

Map of South Tripura District Introduction 5

WELCOME TO SOUTH TRIPURA DISTRICT The South Tripura District with its Head Quarter at Belonia was created with the objective of ensuring better delivery of public services to a population of 4,53,079, a major chunk of whom live in rural areas. The district has 3 Sub-Divisions, 8 RD Blocks, 3 Nagar Pachayats, 90 GPs and 70 ADC Villages. The total geographical area of the District is 1514.322 Sq. Km. Although the district is situated in the southernmost tip of the State, it has the advantage of being connected with the State Capital through National Highway 44. The project for extension of railway line up to Sabroom Town via Belonia would further improve the transportation and communication link with the rest of the State. While Trishna Wildlife Sanctuary under Rajnagar Block and Pilak under Jolaibari have the potential to become major tourist attractions, Belonia and Sabroom Towns have the potential to become major export-import hub. ADistrict Disaster Management plan (2015-2016) for south Tripura District has been prepared. The plan has been developed based on the input provided by the officials of various departments of the South Tripura District for effective Disaster Management. What is a Disaster? A Disaster is a sudden, calamitous event that causes serious disruption of the functioning of a community or a society involving widespread human material economic or environmental losses and impact which exceeds the ability of the affected community or society to cope using its own resources. ---- UN International Strategy for Disaster Reduction, (UNISDR) A Disaster is a Situation or event, which overwhelms local capacity, necessitating a request to national or international level for external assistance; an unforeseen and often sudden event that causes great damage, destruction and human suffering. ----Center for Research of Epidemiotology of Disaster (CRED), Belgium What is a Hazard? Hazard is a natural physical event which has a potential to convert in to a disaster, causing widespread injury or deaths and damage to public or private property or the environment. 6

What is Vulnerability? Vulnerability means inability to resist a hazard or respond when a disaster has occurred. It depends on several factors such as people s age and state of health, local environmental and sanitary conditions, as well as on the quality and state of local with respect to any hazards. ----UNISDR Disaster Preparedness:- Pre-disaster activities that are undertaken within the context of disaster risk management and are based on sound risk analysis. This includes the development/enhancement of an overall preparedness strategy, policy, institutional structure, warning and forecasting capabilities, and plans that define measures geared up for helping at-risk communities safeguard their lives and assets by being alert to hazards and taking appropriate action in the face of an imminent threat or an actual disaster. -----Office of commissioner for Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR):- DDR attempts to look back at the root causes of risks and vulnerabilities in a society, state, town or even a single household. Factors can be broad or specific, depending on the scope of risk and vulnerability assessment. Natural hazard:- Natural process or phenomenon that may cause loss of life, injury or other health impacts, property damage, loss of livelihoods and services, social and economic disruption, or environment damage. The Natural disasters were split into 3 specific groups:- 1. Hydro-meteorological disasters: Floods and wave surges, storm, droughts and related disasters (extreme temperatures and forest / scrub fires), and landslides & avalanches 2. Geographysical disasters: Earthquakes and tsunamis and volcanic eruptions; 3. Biological disasters: Epidemics and insect infestations Manmade Disasters:- Disasters due to human activities could be unintentional, but lack of safety measures and abiding by certain safety rules and regulations. Most of these (barring coordinated terrorist activities) are due to certain accidents. Terrorism, Bomb blast, wars, Riots, 7

technology related, Accidents (Road, Ship, Air), Chemical and Nuclear Industrial accidents, etc. National Disaster Management (NDMA) Act, 2005:- The National Emergency Management Authority was constituted in Aug, 1999, which submitted a report in 2001, to have separate department for Disaster Management in India. Government enacted the National Disaster Management Act on 23 rd December 2005, which leads to the creation of National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) Tripura Disaster Management Authority (TDMA) As per the suggestion of MHA, Gol, SDMA has been constituted with vide notification No F.2(3)/COM/REV/2014 on dated 14 December, 2004 and reframed with the notification No F.12(5)-REV/DMR/2008 on 30 th October,2008 as per the provision under Section 14(1) of The Disaster Management Act, 2005 as per the following member:- 1) Chief Minister, Tripura(Chairperson) 2) Minister, Revenue & PWD (Vice Chairperson) 3) Minister, Tribal Welfare (Member) 4) Minister, Health (Member) 5) Minister, Power (Member) 6) Chief Executive Member, TTAADC 7) Chairman, AMC (Member) 8) Chief Secretary( Chief Executive Officer) State Executive Committee (SEC) As per the Provision under section14(1) of the Disaster Management Act,2005 the State Executive Committee has been formed with vide notification No F.23(1)-Rev/2002(P) with the following person:- 1. Chief Secretary, Tripura Chairperson 2. Secretary, Revenue Member 3. Secretary, PWD Member 4. Secretary, Health Member 5. Secretary, Finance Member Co-opted Member 6.

Director, Fire Service Member 8

11. State Level Officer of NCC Member 12. State Level Officer of NSS Member 13. State level Officer or civil Defence Member 14. Joint Secretary, Revenue Member Importance of Multi-hazard Management Plan:- It is apparent that this district is prone to natural disasters such as flood, cyclones, landslide etc. Also, it cannot ignore the man-made disasters. So the district plan is designed as per the present need and the major strategies to respond to any unexpected situation have also been considered. In the multi-hazard district plan, all the disasters will be handled properly following the use of resource inventory, Standard Operating Procedures (SOP), keeping coordination with the line agencies and proper community based awareness activities. SOP of line departments is designed to make them alert. It highlights their role and responsibilities during, after and at normal time of the disaster. The main features of multi-hazard plan are:- 1. It gives importance to all the disasters equally and helps to mitigate the situation beforehand. 2. All the departments are assigned with their proper role and responsibilities, which are clearly indicated in the SOPs. 3. The District Administration has to be alert round the year as disasters may occur any time, anywhere in the district, irrespective of time and location. 9

Disaster Management Cycle:- In multi-hazard response plan, the disaster management cycle has a significant role to play. The four stage of disaster cycle have their own importance in terms of their implementation during, after and before the occurrence of any disaster.

PREPAREDNESS AND MITIGATION:- In Disaster Management cycle, preparedness and mitigation are the two important stages before the occurrence of disaster. It has a great importance in reduction of loss of life and property, if proper preparedness and mitigation strategies are followed. Preparedness:- This protective process embraces measures which enable governments, communities and individuals to respond rapidly to disaster situations to cape with them effectively. Preparedness includes the formulation of viable emergency plans, the development of warning systems, the maintenance of inventories and the training of personnel. It may also embrace search and rescue measures as will as evacuation plans for areas that may be at risk from a recurring disaster. Preparedness therefore encompasses those measures taken before a disaster event which are aimed at minimizing the loss of life, disruption of critical services and damage when the disaster occurs. All preparedness, planning needs to be supported by appropriate legislation with clear allocation of responsibilities and budgetary provisions. 56

Mitigation:- Mitigation embraces all measures taken to reduce both the effect of the hazard itself and the vulnerable conditions to in order to reduce the scale of a future disaster. Therefore mitigation activities can be focused on the hazard itself or the elements exposed to the threat. Examples of mitigation measures which are hazard specific include modifying the occurrence of the hazard, e.g. water management in drought prone areas, avoiding the hazard by shifting people away from the hazard and by strengthening structures to reduce damage when a hazard occurs. In addition to these physical measures, mitigation aims at reducing the physical, economic and social vulnerability threats and the underlying causes for this vulnerability. A proper preparedness and mitigation measure instantly helps to respond a disaster in time. So disaster wise preparedness and mitigation is highly required. These are normal time activities. A prepared community is the best community to minimizing the loss and damage caused by the disasters. Mitigation focuses on various ways and means of reducing the impacts of disaster on the communities through damage prevention. It is hazard specific including both structural and non-structural issues. It is also very strategic rather than the description of various methods of resistant construction technologies. Preparedness and Mitigation Measures:- Preparedness and Mitigation Measures toward various disasters certainly helps to reduce the risk as well as loss and damage of the life and properties caused by different disaster. Let s discuss them in general as well as event wise:- General Preparedness Measures:- 1. Establishment of the control Rooms:- The district administration should ensure the operation of control rooms are presently run by major line departments at Revenue, Police, Hospital, etc. 2. Plan updating:- Disaster Management Plan needs updation at every interval. It includes the skilled manpower, their address and contact number, necessary equipment, medicinal 57

stock, daily necessities, list of flood prone villages etc. All these things have to be update after a certain interval of time. 3. Communication System:- Training is given for search and rescue teams, first aid team disaster management teams at village, Block and District level. These teams will provide timely help during any type of disaster. Besides a good communication system should be developed. 4. Training for Disaster Management Term Members:- Each of the DMTs comprise groups of women and men volunteers and are assigned with a specials task The search and Rescue teams, First Aid Teams formed at the three levels should be provided training from time to time so that their timely help can be used during disaster. 5. Organization of Mock Drills:- Mock dill is an integral part of the Community based disaster management plan, as it is a preparedness drill to keep the community alert. Mock drills are organized in all the villages of the district to activate the DMTs and modification of the Dm plan. Mock drill is organized once in six months as per the seasonality calendar of natural disaster events that is likely to occur. 6. Community Awareness on Various Disasters:- 1. Construction of Earthquake Resistant Structures. 2. Retrofitting the weak structures. 3. Houses insurance. 4. Construction of embankments for flood control. 5. Rehabilitation of people in safe lands. 6. Development of plans for shifting people from vulnerable areas to safer areas. Disaster wise mitigation measures may be taken as follows:- A. Floods and Cyclones:- 58

Flooding frequency is quite frequent in many Block of the district. Strict enforcement of flood zone regulations need to be done to prevent construction of any type within 200 meter of the riverbanks. Engineering solutions like building of flood embankment, small dams, deepening of the channels may be considered for specific localities. Community awareness should be built up so that people respond effectively to the flooding. Persons living in the low lying parts of flood plains, areas below: Unsafe dams are vulnerable to flood hazards. Notable risk in flood plain settlements are buildings made of earth of with soluble mortar, buildings with shallow foundations or non-resistant to water force and inundation. Infrastructural elements at particular risk are utilities such as sewer systems, power and water supplies, machinery and electronics belonging to industry and communications, livestock, vehicles, agricultural fields etc. Inhabitants of flood prone areas usually have a number of traditional methods at their disposal for coping with floods. Some aspects of floods planning and response are:- o Issuing warnings at the local levels. o Participating in food fighting by organizing work parties to repair. o Embankments or clear debris from drainage areas, pile sandbags. o Stockpile needed materials. o Facilitating agricultural recovery. o Planning emergency supplies of flood and clean drinking water. o To conduct training on search and rescue for Search and Rescue. Teams formed at District, Revenue Circle and Village level from time to time. There is need for trained full time fire brigade personnel in each municipality who will help in search and rescue. The health department needs to be equipped with more water quality monitoring centers for effective surveillance of water quality during flood events. Provision of wireless communication equipment to all tehsil offices so that information about approaching cyclone can be relayed immediately. Main Mitigation Strategies:- 59

1. Mapping of the flood prone areas is a primary step involving the risk of the region. Historical records give the indication of the flood inundation areas and the period of occurrence and the extent of the coverage. Warning can be issued looking into the earlier marked heights of the water levels in case of potential threat. 2. The onset of cyclones is extensive and often very destructive. A hazard map will illustrate the areas vulnerable to the cyclone in any given year. 3. The map is prepared with data inputs off past climatologically records, history of wind speed, frequency of flooding etc. 4. Land use control will reduce the danger of life and property when waters inundate the floodplain areas. In areas where people already have built their settlement, measures should be taken to relocate to better sites so as to reduce vulnerability. No major development should be permitted in the areas which are subjected to high flooding. Important important buildings should be built in safe areas. 5. Construction of engineered structure in the flood plain and strengthening of structures to withstand flood forces and seepage. The buildings should be constructed on an elevated area. If necessary build on stilts or platform. They should be constructed on an elevated area. If necessary build on stilts or platform. They should be wind and water resistant. Protect river embankments. Communication lines should be installed underground. Provide strong halls for community shelter in vulnerable locations. 6. Food Control aims to reduce flood damage. Measures such as re-forestation, protection of vegetation, clearing of debris, conservation of ponds and lakes, etc. 7. Structural measures include storage reservoirs, flood embankments, drainage, anti erosion works, detention basins, etc. and non-structural measures include flood forecasting, flood proofing, disaster preparedness, etc. B. Road Accidents:- 1. Setting up of a Highway Safety patrol along the National Highway (NH 44) and other highway, which will be a specialized division of the high way police to tackle road accidents. 2. Provision of full time trained fire brigade personnel at least in all the Nagar Panchayets/Municipal Council. 60

3. Provision of adequate signboards, speed breakers and guard stones near the accident prone spots. 4. Some Hospitals along the National Highway (NH 44) and other highway should be upgraded with X-ray Machines, Blood Bank and Surgical facilities. 5. If necessary, by passes should be constructed wherever the high way passes through densely populated localities. 6. The risk at the accident prone spots must be minimized by adequate construction/ resurfacing / widening etc. C. FIRES:- Provision of trained manpower to the fire stations, provision of fire engines and trained manpower to all the Nagar Panchayets/Municipal Councils.
