Message

Disaster Management is one of the most discussed topic these days and hence a lot of effort is put

by government at grass root level to combat these situations leading to disruption to health life

and livelihood. Hence preparedness and planning at district level is crucial. As administration we

are supposed to set example for a culture of safety.

This plan gives roles and responsibility of each one to prepare for their own safety. It stresses on

developing our own capacity to handle situation leading to major disruption.

District Disaster Management plan identify hazards and related vulnerability and provide overall

directions and lays down the district goals so that we can be prepared for known and to have a

strategy in place to respond well to the unknown. It emphasis on capacity building for various

departments and stake holders, and to constitute their departmental plans including response

plans and standard operating procedures. This would help to make healthy and safe working

environment for all.

I congratulate District Disaster Management Authority and its members for their efforts and call

upon all stake holders in the district to make Solan truly disaster resilient.

Introduction

District Solan came into existence on 1st

September, 1972, its name from the local deity

SHOOLINI.” Solan is considered as gateway to Himachal Pradesh which was carved out from

the Solan and Arki Tehsils of the then “MAHASU” district and Tehsil Kandaghat and Nalagarh of

the then Shimla district. Solan district has an area of 1936 sq.kms1. The district has been divided

in 4 administrative sub-divisions. It is known as the "Mushroom city of India" because of the

vast mushroom farming in the area and the mushroom research centre situated at

Chambaghat. Solan is also called the "City of Red Gold", in reference to the bulk production of

tomatoes in the area. A fast fact of the district is as follows:

1 .1 AIMS and Objectives of DDMP

The overall aim of the DDMP of District Solan is to ensure that all component of Disaster Management

is addressed to facilitate planning, prevention, preparedness, mitigation and quick and coordinated

response to save lives.

The objective of the plan is to formulate an integrated DDMP for District Solan in order to utilize the

resources from different line departments to mitigate risks of disaster and prepare to deal with them

and build capacities accordingly. Also to have prompt and integrated response in case of disaster by

speedy planned evacuation, search and rescue, first-aid and restoration of essential services. The

broad objectives of the DDMP shall be said as“to enable disaster resilient development in Solan district

and continuity of services essential for life and dignity of citizens”.

Objectives:

The objective of DDMP are as under:

• To identify hazard, risk and vulnerabilities in the district.

• To mitigate risks of natural hazards in the district.

• To build preparedness measures for effective response and relief.

• To build the capacity of the community.

• To define roles and responsibility of different stakeholders.

• To facilitate integration of DRR into development plans/ schemes in the district.

• To facilitate capacity development at all levels to effectively respond to multiple hazards and

for community based disaster management.

• To lay down institutional mechanism for coordination of administration related to disaster risk

reduction.

• To prepare a response plan based upon the guidelines issued in the State Disaster

Management Plan so as to provide prompt relief, rescue and search support in the

disaster affected areas.

• To adopt disaster resilient construction mechanism in the district by way of using

Information, Education and Communication and media for making the community

aware of the need of disaster resilient future development.

• It acknowledges that effective disaster management requires a comprehensive framework

encompassing multiple hazards. The DDMP incorporates an integrated approach that

ensures the involvement of government agencies, numerous other relevant organizations,

private sector participants, and local communities.

• In compliance with Chapter IV, Section 31 of Disaster Management act, 2005, every district

should make a DDMP after consulting the local authorities. The DDMP should be in

accordance with the state and national DM plan


1.2 AUTHORITY FOR DDMP: DM ACT 2005

DM Act 2005 As per section 30 under ‘Powers and functions of District Authority’

CHAPTER 2

Hazard Risk Vulnerability Analysis

INTRODUCTION:

A disaster risk reduction strategy essentially includes a proper hazard, vulnerability, risk and

capacity assessment (HVRCA). It also requires resources, institutional & operational capacities

and infrastructural facilities like GIS tools & software to execute them. The essential features of

such a strategy would require hazard mapping, assessment of hazard risks, and

determination of probability of hazard event, vulnerability & capacity assessment on

various environmental, social, economic and physical aspects followed by proper risk analysis.

The objective of undertaking a HVRCA is primarily to anticipate the potential problems

and possible solutions to help to save lives, protect property, assets, reduce damage and

facilitate a speedy recovery. It is worthwhile to mention that HVRCA is a means

towards becoming disaster resilient and is not an end in itself. HVRCA is a critical part of the

disaster risk reduction program and it has the potential to help the necessary authorities

to prepare for emergencies. Use of HVRCA helps the policy makers, administrators and

the community to make risk based choices to address vulnerabilities, mitigate hazards,

and prepare for response to and recovery from hazard events. Apart from the central

government, the state governments, district authorities, even the local level governance

institutions (like municipalities and village panchayats) can undertake hazard risk and

vulnerability analysis based on their respective locations vis-a-vis hazards. In order to have a

common understanding of HVRCA methodology, it is important to define what we mean by

Hazard, Vulnerability, Risk and Capacity.

Himachal Pradesh as a state is very disaster prone with most of its districts prone to many

hazards. Before discussing HVRCA of the district, the following table indicates disaster

proneness of the state:

Figure 2.1: District Wise Hazard Threat in Himachal Pradesh by HPSDMA. Note we revised this

figure after analysing the historical and recent field datasets with supplement of GIS modelli

The above table indicates that District Solan is vulnerable to both natural and manmade

disasters such as earthquake, landslides, droughts, floods, accidents, sudden fires, cloud bursts

and occasional man made tragedies such as gas leak etc. Besides growing numbers in our

population who are at a risk of prospective hazards such as air or road accidents, rail accidents,

building collapse, electric fires, festival related disasters, forest fires, oil spills and fires etc. The

safeguards within existing systems are limited and the risk involved is very high. Floods,

cyclones and earthquake dominate 98% reported injuries with increasing frequency in recent

years.

2.1.1 HAZARD PROFILE OF SOLAN DISTRICT

Solan district is characterized by a wide variation in topography, geology, soil, climate, flora and

fauna and ethnic groups with varied socio-cultural traditions. A large number of population

resides along sides of small rivulets and rivers basins etc. and predominantly depend on

agriculture. They are subjected to extremes of rainfall – either very high or very low, which

leads to river flooding on one hand and also to food scarcity during drought on the other;

therefore suffer from two major problems of floods and food insecurity. Besides the road

accidents, earthquake, landslides, floods, industrial hazards, cloud bursts, building collapse and

fires are also the major disasters. Small and large scale INDUSTRIES at Solan, Dharampur,

Parwanoo, Baddi, Nalagarh areas and the AMBUJA Ltd. At Darlaghat, the JP Cements at Bagga

and NTPC HYDROELECTRIC PROJECT KOL DAM at Mangal area of Tehsil Arki resulting it is


susceptible to hazards. However all possible measures are applied by respective concerns or

groups but a minor mistake can lead to a bigger problem at any time. A potentially damaging

physical event, phenomenon or human activity, which may cause the loss of life or

injury, property damage, social and economic disruption or environmental degradation.

Hazards can include latent conditions that my represent future threats and can have

different origins: natural (geological, hydro- meteorological and biological) and / or induced

by human process (environmental degradation and technological hazards). Hazards can be

single, sequential or combined in their origin and effects. Each hazard is characterized by its

location, intensity and probability. Fires are quite frequent during the summers due to usage of

inflammable material for house construction and wood for fuel. Due to the dryness and

absence of moisture forests easily catch fire too. Floods are common during the rains. Cloud

bursts are short and devastating while heavy continuous rains flood low lying habitations and

saturate the strata leading to land slide and subsidence. Flooded natural drainage channels

cause heavy erosion. During the dry season drought situations arise. Due to the mountainous

terrain natural sources dry up as groundwater level falls. District Solan located on the foothills

of the Himalayas lies in the earthquake Zone IV and is highly prone to earthquakes.

2.1.2 The past records and historical information indicates that Solan district is prone to the

following hazards:

• Flash Floods during rainy season specifically chikni khud in Nalagarh & Baddi Tehsil

• Droughts, whole district, if no rains, as most part of the district rain fed.

• Heavy rains, whole of the district affected during monsoon season.

• Storms, whole district, as and when occured,

• Earthquake, whole district, as and when occured,

• Landslides specifically Shimla-Kangra national highway near Shalaghat-Galog in Arki

Tehsil, Shimla-Chandigarh national highway near Chhaki –Ka-More and Subathu-Kuthar

Road near village Chiyali, Khaltu and Arla villages.

• Fires, specifically pine (chil) forest spread in all over the district, house and industries,

• Road accidents specifically national highways Shimla-Chandigarh & Shimla-Kangra and

other State and Rural roads due to rash driving, poor roads and certain accidents prone

areas as listed in next chapter.

• Cloud bursts, which are devastating convective phenomena producing sudden high-

intensity rainfall (∼10 cm per hour) over a small area. etc.

• Building collapse due to poor construction and non-compliance of the proper procedure

for construction of multi storied buildings in hilly region of Solan town near Ambusha

Hotel & Konark Hotel at Salogra and Badog valley near SADA building causing 1 casualty,

as occurred in past years during monsoon season.

• Industrial accidents for example Abmuja Ltd. at Dalgahta due to increase in

temperature of main furnace, Panacea Biotech Ltd. at Baddi on collapse of furnace and

in Advantic Coils Ltd. due to explosion in chemical containers which has tolled a number

of fatalities.

• Flash flood in Chikni Khud in Nalagarh and Balad Khud in Tehsil Baddi often causes

damage to life and property.


• Whirling water in Giri River at Giri Pul.

Gaura (PC Gaura of Tehsil Kandaghat), Ser Baneda (PC Mashiver of Tehsil Solan) and enters

into District Sirmour at Yasawantnagar which often causes damage and many times the

tourists swimming at Giripul drowned in said river due to whirling water on formation of

whirlpool at said point in the Giri River, which has caused a number of fatalities/casualities

in past years. Now, a notice board/warning has been placed at that point for the

information of tourists and general public visiting in that place to avoid swimming in that

place to save their life, which has stopped further casualities in that place.

� Kaushalya River of Tehsil Solan/Kasauli originates from Johar Patiala of PC Bhojnagar,

Mahiyan, Tarol-Kayard (PC Tarol), Koti, Rani Gaon, Manjhol, Datyar (PC Basal), Kamli (PC

Tiron) and thereafter enters into Haryana State, which is slightly suceptiple for flash flood.

But, its one positive point is that there as very less population on its shores.

� Gamber rivers in Tehsil Solan which forms Kuthar Khud and Rao Khud comprising of

village Bil, Behali, Namol (PC Kunihar), Rihun, Bharol, Anji, Delgi, Raur, Bani, Dugdi, Tathol,

Sujni, Behal, (PC Jabal Jamrot, Brawari, Baag, Ghadyan, (PC Haripur) Phagwaya, Bokra,

Kanyara, Jerakh, Kolth Kaniatan, Kolthi Chamara, Kolthi Molu, Thana Panda, (PC Gamjhoon)

and thereafter kuhni comoing from Arki & Kandaghat Tehsil merged into it at Gamber Pool

which often causes damage obn occuerence flash flood in village Banoh (PC Dumehar),

Dayawla, Jalang, Sarli, Samlech, Tanseta, Ladhech, Mann (PC Maan) which also passes

through PC Balera of Tehsil Arki, PC Ukhu and Bhiyunkhari of (Sub-Tehsil Ramshahar) and

thereafter enters into Govind Sagar lake in District Bilaspur which often causes damage

during rainy season due to flash floods.


� Land Sliding Zones and sinking zones :

Some parts on SHIMLA-CHANDIGARH National Highways near Chakki-Ka-More &

SHIMLA-MANALI National Highways near Palog-Shalaghat, Subathu-Kuthar road near

Chiyalli and kharsi village and certain places of Nalagarh are prone to land sliding/sinking

due to soil erosion etc. as per PWD National Highway Authorities. In addition to this

there are some landsliding points where slips often occure, which causes damage during

rains/monsoon season on following state roads:

2.2.1 VULNERABILITY ANALYSIS

A set of conditions and processes resulting from physical, social, economic and

environmental factors, which increase the susceptibility of a community to the impact of

hazards Positive factors, that increase the ability of people and the society they live in , to cope

effectively with hazards, that increase their resilience, or that otherwise reduce their

susceptibility, are considered as capacities.

The vulnerability of the district is defined by the ability to anticipate, cope with, resist and

capacity to recover from any probable disaster. Moreover, brief analysis of vulnerable group

identified in the above table with associated hazards in the district. Besides, the factors like

limited livelihood opportunities, low per capita income, under developed infrastructure,

unplanned development, rapid urbanization, prevalent social structures, demographic

expansion and environmental degradation make Solan District highly vulnerable to multi

disaster.

� Economic Vulnerability: Being an agrarian district, the economy of district is primarily

dependent on agriculture and its allied sector. The average size of land holding in the

district is small and fragmented and as per 2001 census, 28.1 percent of the work force

in Solan district comprises of marginal workers. The agriculture in Solan is highly

dependent on the local rainfall which makes the district highly vulnerable to drought

and flood. Economic vulnerability is generally defined in terms of poverty therefore

Solan district being economically poor and backward is highly vulnerable to multi

hazards.

� Environmental Vulnerability: Due to urbanization and limited livelihood opportunities

in the rural areas, people are migrating to urban areas creating additional pressure on

the limited resources. These altogether form the key reasons for exploitation of the

available resources, deforestation, unplanned development and various other related

aftereffects including environmental degradation & risk of increasing man-made &

human-induced disasters like accidents, industrial/ chemical disasters etc

� Technological Vulnerability: There is lack of proper and effective technology to forecast,

monitor and disseminate early warning information of onset of any threatening event in

the district. This increases the risk of people living in vulnerable areas. Besides, lack of

appropriate technology and information also resists the capacity of the district to

mitigate the risk.

� Vulnerability due to Climate: The poor, marginal and farmers are vulnerable to seasonal

hazards like heat waves, cold waves and seasonal flooding. The sudden onset of

monsoon and heavy rainfall not only damages the standing crops but also takes lives of

the people and livestock. On the other hand, some parts of the district face drought due

to deficient rains.

� Structural Vulnerability: Due to rapid urbanization, the buildings, constructions, and

other infrastructures have been developed rapidly without taking into consideration the

disaster vulnerability of the district. Most of the constructions are not disaster resilient

or earthquake safe which increases the vulnerability of the population to various

hazards. In the district approximately 70 percent houses are of concrete structure due

to urbanization.

� Non-structural vulnerability: Solan district is highly vulnerable to multi hazards and few

of the disasters are annual such as fire, heat & cold waves etc. The community is aware

of these recurrent disasters and has some understanding & experience towards these

disasters. However, the community is unaware of the risks arising out of rapid

urbanization, unplanned development, deforestation, environmental degradation and

other such potential disasters. This unawareness and inexperience to these situations

poses added vulnerability to the community.

� Social Vulnerability: The community of area is oblivious of the great threat of

earthquake in the regions. The community is neither prepared nor aware. There

is hardly any community awareness and preparedness planning to deal with various

hazards. Solan has 670 number of people with various disabilities . Their disability

would be a serious impediment for their safety during disasters which can further be

exacerbated by the terrain of the district

2.2.1.1 Authority/Agency that carried out HVCRA: Tools, Techniques and Methodology used

for HVCRA

DDMA, Solan carried out HRVCA using the latest techniques of geographical information system

(GIS) with supplements of satellite images, published data, field validation and daily loss report.

In addition to few maps and data also acquired from the TRAU HRVCA software. TARU provides

the data on district level however for the micro analysis DDMA, Solan carried out their on

HRVCA based on GIS and other available tools at national and international level. More details

related to TARU methodology can be accessible from HPSDMA website.

The district has got number of resources and capacities which are useful in emergency as well

as normal situations. . Below is a broad listing of the key resources/capacities available in the

district with different department agencies.

2.2.2 CAPACITY AND RESOURCE ANLYSIS

Capacity analysis means analyzing our capability to cope with any disaster situations. Capacity

consists of various factors such as:

• Inventory available with all line departments and stakeholders, etc.

• Administrative Preparedness

• Disaster specific capability analysis

• Preparedness measures undertaken by various departments

• Public and Private Sector Resource Inventory

• Adequacy of Existing Inventory for Disaster Management

• Mitigation Strategy for the District, etc.

Early waning communication

BSNL is the responsible agency for the early warning dissemination. The BSNL has xx number

exchanges and they use radio and televisions for providing early warning. However it is

imperative that in disasters such as earthquake the radio and television may not work. Police

department has seven ham sets which could provide an effective back up. There are 55 Walkie

talkies spread over all the police stations All households have mobile telephones and all the

mobile holders could receive a message from state offices.

The felt need and gap is satellite telephones at district and sub-divisions.. To cater to this need

4-5 satellite telephone could be procured.

Search and rescue

There are 63 Fire service staff and 23 Home guards who are trained in search and rescue.

Additional SAR service could be obtained from NDRF situated in Bhatinda. There are 23 Fire

Engines which could be deployed for Search and Rescue. There are 19 JCBs and 05 air

comprssors are available with PWD at the district level. The PWD also had one gas cutter

Important Gaps in Existing Capacity to deal with Disasters

a) Lack of specialized SAR equipment and capabilities with the state authorities.

b) Communication – land and mobile based communication only.

c) Lack of trained workforce.

d) Lack of awareness at all levels – government functionaries, elected representatives and

the general public.

e) Lack of clarity of roles of various departments and stakeholders.

f) DRR not integrated into development planning and programmes.

g) Hospital and schools not prepared to deal with disasters.

h) Only fire Post for the entire district.

i) The existing construction of the district is not hazard resistant.

j) Huge infrastructure has come along the major river courses of the district making them

vulnerable to flash floods.

k) No efforts have been taken to transfer the risk by way of insurance etc.

l) The EWS in the district is not adequate and there is hardly any mechanism to

communicate the EW to the vulnerable community.


m) The district control room is not equipped and no trained manpower to handle it.

The institutional set-up – SAR, MFA, etc. to deal with disasters is not adequate.

CHAPTER 3

INSTITUTIONAL MECHANISM

The Disaster Management Act, 2005 lays down institutional and coordination mechanisms for

effective disaster management (DM) at the national, state, and district levels. A multi-tiered

institutional system consisting of the National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA), headed

by the Prime Minister, the State Disaster Management Authorities (SDMA) by the Chief

Ministers and the District Disaster Management Authorities (DDMA) by the District Collectors

and co-chaired by elected representatives of the local authorities of the respective districts.

These bodies have been set up to facilitate the paradigm shift from the hitherto relief-centric

approach to a more proactive, holistic and integrated approach of strengthening disaster

preparedness, mitigation and emergency response.

3.3.1 INSTITUTIONAL ARRANGEMENTS AT NATIONAL LEVEL

Institutional Arrangements for Disaster Management at National level

At the national level, the Ministry of Home Affairs is the nodal Ministry for all matters

concerning disaster management. National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) which is

headed by the Prime Minister is a multi-disciplinary body with nodal officers from all concerned


Ministries/ Departments/ Organizations. A National Emergency Operations Center (NEOC) in

the Ministry of Home Affairs is equipped with sophisticated equipment with most modern

technology for effective coordination during emergency situations.The national level

Role of Emergency Operation Centre in Normal Time

The Deputy Commissioner of District Solan is empowered to appoint an Administrative Officer

as Officer-in-charge of EOC. He will be responsible for the effective functioning of the EOC.

Responsibilities of the EOC in charge in normal time Include

1. Ensure that all equipments in the EOC are in working condition;

2. Collection data on routine basis from line departments for disaster management

3. Develop status reports of preparedness and mitigation activities in the DDMP

4. Ensure appropriate implementation of District Disaster Management Plan

5. Maintenance of data bank with regular updating

6. Activate the trigger mechanism on receipt of disaster warning/occurrence of

disaster

Role of Emergency Operation Centre during Disaster On the basis of the message received

from the forecasting agencies, warning has to be issued for the general public and the

departments, which play a vital role during emergencies. Issuing correct and timely warning

would be one of the prime responsibilities of EOC. For effective dissemination of warning EOC

should have a well- planned line of communication. The DC shall be the competent authority to

disseminate a disaster warning. The warning on occurrence of a disaster will also be

communicated to:


1. All Emergency Support Functions

2. Members of DDMC-Solan

3. Hospitals in the disaster area/CAT etc

4. Office of Divisional Commissioner

5. State Relief Commissioner

6. Emergency Operation Centre in the neighboring districts

7. National/State Emergency Operation Centre

8. People’s representatives from the district

Apart from this the District Emergency Operation Centre must arrange desks for the Emergency

Support Function in its complex for better coordination and help. Simultaneously the onsite

EOCs are to be set up with the help of the district EOC. Constant communication between the

State EOC, District EOC and Onsite EOC is mandatory for updates on the disaster, which

happened.

3.3.4 FORECASTING AND EARLY WARNING AGENCIES

Early Warning System is the crux of disaster preparedness and response. Since, its objective is

risk reduction by taking necessary precaution and action, earlier the warning is received, the

better it is. For the EWS to be efficient and timely, it requires equally efficient backward

linkages with instruments that become the basis for providing early warning.

Apart from technological systems used for receiving early warning signal, community

knowledge can also be utilised. The use of animal, birds and insects behaviors for hazard early

warning is being researched even in developed countries where their particular behavior is

associated to possibility of occurrence of disasters. Such community knowledge may be used

for issuing warning message too.


The EOC would utilize the ICT tools and various other modes available for early transmission of

early warning to the vulnerable groups and also activate the responders. The bulk group

messaging services would also be utilized to alert the vulnerable groups and activate the Search

and Rescue parties and all the responders. A model of early warning dissemination is given in

figure above. The timely flow of early warning system from the source to the targeted

stakeholder is very important. The dissemination of early warning should be institutionalized so

that it reaches the stakeholders in minimum possible time by recognized means of

communication.

3.3.5 TRIGGER MECHANISM

As soon as Emergency Operation centre would get the information about any emergency, the

staff on duty in EOC will pass the information to DC/RDC and seek for his/her instruction for

further actions. If the information pertains to the occurrence of a disaster in any part of the

district, the staff on duty will also try to inform DDMA members, Emergency Support

Functionaries-team leaders, major Hospitals and State Disaster Management Authority etc. The

staff on duty will also be responsible to reclaim information related to type, magnitude and

location of the disaster and also inform it to responsible authorities. The EOC in-charge will also

inform all the details to Divisional Commissioner and State EOC. All the desk officers/team

leaders and Incident Command Team members will be informed to immediately report at

District EOC. Incident Command team and Desk officials would respond as per their standard

operating procedures and directions of Incident Commander(IC).


Other Institutional Arrangements

Armed Forces

The Armed Forces form an important part of the Government’s response capacity and are

immediate responders in all serious disaster situations. On account of their vast potential to

meet any adverse challenge, speed of operational response and the resources and capabilities

at their disposal, the Armed Forces have historically played a major role in emergency support

functions. These include communication, search and rescue operations, health and medical

facilities, and transportation, especially in the immediate aftermath of a disaster. The Armed

Forces will participate in imparting training to trainers and DM managers, especially in CBRN

aspects, heli - insertion, high-altitude rescue, waterman ship and training of paramedics. At the

National level, the Chief of the Integrated Defence Staff has already been included in the NEC.

Similarly, at the State and District levels, the local representatives of the Armed Forces will be

included in their executive committees to ensure closer coordination and cohesion.

Central Paramilitary Forces

The Central Paramilitary Forces (CPMFs), which are also the Armed Forces of the Union, play a

key role at the time of immediate response to disasters. Besides supporting to the NDRF, they

will develop adequate disaster management capabilities within their own forces and respond to

disasters as and when required. The local representatives of the CPMFs located in the district

will be invited in the DDMA meeting for better coordination.

State Police Forces and India Reserve Battalions


The State Police Forces and the India Reserve Battalions are crucial for immediate responders

to disasters. The existing Police Forces located in the district will be trained in advanced SAR

and MFA techniques so that their services can be utilised in disaster situations/events.

Fire Services and Home Guards

The Home Guards and Fire Services plays an important role in the field of disaster management.

They will be deployed for community preparedness, conduct of mock drill and public

awareness. The Fire Services have been upgraded to acquire multi-hazard rescue capabilities

and further the existing set up of these services would be strengthened to take up the new role

more effectively.

Role of National Cadet Corps (NCC), National Service Scheme (NSS), Nehru Yuva Kendra

Sangthan(NYKS), Scouts and Guides, Youth and Women Organisations

NCC, NSS, NYKS, Scouts and Guides, Mahilla and Yuvak Mandals as organisations will be trained

in search and rescue (SAR) and medical first aid (MFA) and other aspects of DM as per their

mandate. The potential of these organisation would further be used for education and

awareness generation in DM. These organisations can play an important role during and post

disaster situation. Adatabase of trained personnel would be created and uploaded regularly in

the DDMA website.

Action during Disasters

The following would be the broad guidelines for actions during disasters: -

1. Post Disaster Need Assessmentand provide assistance in search and rescue operations

2. Allocate clear responsibilities to the officers and provide them necessary resources

along with necessary delegations

3. Mobilize resources from outside the district if the situation so warrants

4. Collect and maintain full information of the disaster and steps taken to tackle it

5. Document the disaster including the lessons learnt

And all of the above objectives can be achieved by Incident Response System (IRS) which is still

in its infancy stag of implementation and training programs are regularly being conducted to

have it streamlined in the existing administrative structure of the district.

Incident Response System at District Solan


At the district level, there will be one District Team with the primary function of assisting the

deputy commissioner or in handling tasks like general co-ordination, distribution of relief

materials, media management and the overall logistics. Suitable officers from the district

administration will be carefully selected and professionally trained for the different IRS

positions in order to constitute the District Level.

The Incident Response System (IRS) at district level identifies and designates officers to perform

various duties and get them trained in their respective roles; thus reducing chaos and confusion

in response phase. It is a flexible system and all the Sections, Branches and Units need not be

activated at the same time. Various Sections, Branches and Units need to be activated only as

and when they are required. It also includes proper documentation of various activities for

better planning, accountability and analysis which also helps new/ outside responders to

immediately get a comprehensive picture of the situation and go in for immediate action.

Outline of Responsibility of Main Functionary of district Solan for IRS

Responsible Officer Primarily responsible for effective response

Incident commander Overall In-charge of the Incident Response Team & its Effective

Functioning

Operations Sections Direct & supervise all tactical actions

Planning Sections Collect/Analyse data, Workout need of required resources and

prepare action plan for incident/Disaster of the district Solan

Logistics & Finance

Section

Provide logistic support, procurement & cost accounting


The chief and associates for the different sections are as nominated below:

1. All team leaders will be in the rank of ADM/Line Department Heads in the district

who are senior level officer .

2. The SDMs shall not be given any responsibility in the incident command chain since

they are to look after the onsite EOC in their territory or as assigned to the

affected areas as well as they are the Team Leaders of Incident Management

3. Teams (IMTs) in each Onsite Emergency Operation Centre.

Unified Response Strategy (URS):

“Unified Response Strategy” (URS) is a good practice developed for building local capacities

for inter-agency coordination and creating a continuous and common process to emergency

response by stakeholders.

The District Magistrate as a chairman of DDMA Solan may activate the Unified Response

Strategy or may appoint one senior officer responsible for URS. “Unified Response Strategy”

(URS) is a good practice developed for building local capacities for inter-agency

coordination and creating a continuous and common process to emergency response by

stakeholders. The key functions of URS are:


a) To build local capacities for coordination and collaboration: Inter Agency Groups are

developed to meet this objective. Una district has a dynamic IAG as part of this.

b) To develop a common process for collaborative response by all actors. The key

steps involved in this are:

URS in preparedness: The member agencies share their preparedness plans and pre-positioning

as preparedness exercise. The resources are mapped for gap analysis.

• EW detection and Situation Report (Sitrep) dissemination

• URS activation

• Common Assessment format and Multi-Sectoral Multi Agency Assessment

• Coordination at all levels

• Sectoral Coordination and joint Strategies

• Common M&E and learning

• URS deactivation

Quick Response Team/ Disaster Management Team (QRT s/DMT):

The quick response team is formed to ensure prompt and effective emergency response

with pre planned strategy and pre designated task, role and responsibility.Each ESF should

be well prepared to set up its coordination desks in all the onsite EOCs as well as in the District

EOC at the time of disaster. With this intention, they have to designate a nodal officer and an

alternate nodal officer with specific responsibility. Besides they have to constitute a Head

Quarter Team as well as Quick Response Teams (QRTs) and minimum three Field Response

Teams (FRTs) with at least five members each. The name and addresses of the team

members shall be updated time to time with latest contact number. It is the function of

the Working Group-III for plan review and updating, to coordinate the disaster management

teams. The supporting agencies will directly report to the nodal agency and the nodal agency

will report to the Incident Commander regarding its functions.



CHAPTER 4

Preventive Measures and Mitigation Plan

4.1 MAINSTREAMING DRR INTO DEVELOPMENT SECTORS

DRR refers to the measures used to reduce direct, indirect and intangible disaster losses. The

measures may be technical, economic or social. DRR encompasses the two aspects of a disaster

management: ‘Mitigation’ and ‘Preparedness’. Mitigation refers to measures aimed at

reducing the risk, impact or effects of a disaster or threatening disaster situation, whereas,

preparedness refers to the measures undertaken to ensure the readiness and ability of a

society to forecast and take precautionary measures in advance of imminent threat, and

respond and cope with the effects of a disaster by organizing and delivering timely and effective

rescue, relief and other post-disaster assistance. ‘Mainstreaming DRR’ describes a process to

fully incorporate the concerns of disaster preparedness, prevention and mitigation into

development and post disaster recovery policy and practice. It means completely

institutionalizing DRR within the development and recovery agenda. In the chapter three of the

plan we have identified earthquakes, flash floods, cloud burst, forest fire, domestic fire,

landslides, avalanche and draught as possible hazards in regard to this district. In the following

we will discuss the mitigation measures for the mentioned hazards and responsible department

for the same.

This chapter enlists the actions which are meant to be taken during non-disaster time for

prevention and mitigation as well as disaster resilient development planning in the district.

CHAPTER-5

Preparedness Measures

Disaster preparedness, as already stated, is a broad concept that describes a set of measures

that minimizes the adverse effects of a hazard including loss of life and property and disruption

of livelihoods. Disaster preparedness is achieved partially through readiness measures that

expedite emergency response, rehabilitation and recovery and result in rapid, timely and

targeted assistance. It is also achieved through community-based approaches and activities that

build the capacities of people and communities to cope with and minimize the effects of a

disaster on their lives.

Those who are unaware and unprepared generally get affected more due to their lack of

knowledge and physiological pressure. The approach towards coping the effects of disasters

has been post-disaster management, involving many problems related to law and order,

evacuation, communications, search and rescue, fire-fighting, medical and psychiatric

assistance, provisions of relief and shelters etc. After initial trauma next phase starts with long-

term reconstruction planning which takes about 5 to 6 years to normalize the life-style in

a particular area. In view of these problems the district administration Solan (H.P.), has

prepared a comprehensive plan. The plan basically detailed out preparedness strategy

under which communities and district authorities would be prepared so that level of

destruction and unnecessarily delay in relief and response can be reduced. The

preparedness measures that is going to include in this chapter include discuss and setting up

disaster relief machinery, formulation of community preparedness plans, training to the

specific groups and earmarking funds for relief operations.

5.2 FORMATION OF TEAMS

5.2.1 Evacuation

The Prime Nodal Agency for Evacuation within District Solan is DDMA with with supporting

agency consisting of Revenue and Police department

Evacuation is a risk management strategy which involves the movement of people to a safer

location. However, to be effective, it must be correctly planned and executed for the return of

the affected community. The following factors need consideration for evacuation preparedness:

� Iden

tification of appropriate shelter areas based on safety, availability of facilities, capacity

and number of victims

� App

roaches to the shelter location in light of disruption due to hazard impact and traffic


blockades

� Tem

porary accommodation

� Pro

vision of essential facilities like drinking water, food, clothing, communication, medical,

electrical and feeding arrangements, etc

� Sec

urity

� Fina

ncial and immediate assistance

� First

-aid and counseling

Evacuation Warning must be structured to provide timely and effective information. The warning

should be clear and target specific. The warning statement issued to the community should be

conveyed in a simple language and the statement should mention about:

� The issuing authority, date and time of issue

� An accurate description of likely hazard and what is expected

� Possible impact on population, area to be in undated or affected

due to earthquake

� Need to activate evacuation plan

� Do’s and Don’ts to ensure appropriate response

� Advise to the people about further warnings to be issued, if any

• Gaps- There is a need to earmark each and every evacuation routes and shelters within

district for quick and efficient evacuation process.

5.2.2 Search & Rescue: -

The Prime Nodal Agency for Search and Rescue within District is Police along with Home

Guards. In case the incident is beyond the capacity of the district and state NDRF, Bathinda and

its supporting unit at Nurpur, Kangra will be reckoned for.

In the event of any disaster the two departments form teams to locate injured and dead along

with rescuing the ones in need. The secondary departments supporting SAR work, are PWD,

Health department, Fire department and also the people that voluntarily form teams to help

the ones in need. Proper training for search and rescue process needs to be undertaken so as to

minimize the time taken in rescuing someone. The Task team for Search & Rescue is formed as

and when required. The members &equipments depend on the nature of the disaster and

intensity and their availability.

� Police Officers

� Fire Brigade

� Medical team

essential number of items as per the IDRN List of equipment besides the mentioned above.

5.2.3 Damage & Loss Assessment

The Nodal Officer for assessment of the damages and loss will be with the Revenue department

with key departments

Damage assessment is carried out with regards to building stock, standing crops, agricultural

area, livestock lost, forest cover decimated, vital installations etc. for better rescue and relief.

Damage assessment is conducted in 2 phases:

� Rapid Damage Assessment, and

� Detailed Damage Assessment

The field staff and agencies of various departments would communicate the damage/loss to the

DEOC at the earliest. Initially first information report would be sent which would be followed by

the detailed damage assessment reports. The formats for damage assessment are given in the

annexure.

Indicative departments of Damage assessment are- revenue, PWD, I&PH, Electricity Board,

7. Use of radio for dissemination of information related to Disasters preparedness and

situations during an incidence.

Community awareness, education

Community based disaster preparedness (CBDP) is a process to capacitate communities to

prevent, mitigate and cope with disasters effectively. As part of CBDP there is community

participation from District to Village level awareness programme must be conducted with the

help of Print Media, Electronic media, folk media authority can create awareness among

community.

5.2.7. Protocol and arrangements for VIP visits

The visit of the VIP’s to the disaster site is likely to adversely affect the rescue operations,

particularly if casualties are still trapped. It should be ensured that their visits do not interrupt

rescue and lifesaving work and the police, as co-ordinator of the disaster response, should

explain the ground situation to them and try to avoid their visit, if possible. However, in case

the visit becomes impossible to avoid, it needs to fix up the timings of their visits. The

additional need of their security also causes a problem. The police and the local services are

trained to handle VIP visits and many of the usual considerations will apply to their visit to a

disaster site. It is desirable to restrict media coverage of such visits, in such case the police

should liaise with the government press officer to keep their number to minimum. It is also

necessary for the police to brief the VVIP/VIP beforehand about the details of casualties,

damage and the nature of the disaster. It should, therefore, prepare a brief note for such

briefings.


5.2.8. Knowledge Management, networking and sharing

With the need to create a network of knowledge institutions in the field of DM, to share their

experiences and knowledge the DDMA would forge ties with knowledge institutions such as NITs,

IITs, CBRI, SASE, ICIMOD, GSI, CWC, IMD, Wadia Institute of Himalayan Geology Dehradun, etc.,

and UN Agencies and other national and international agencies dealing with emergency response

will be done to utilise their experience and knowledge for DM in the district.

In acknowledgment of the need for a knowledge sharing platform on DM, and to facilitate

interaction and dialogue with related areas of expertise, the DDMA website within the district

website would be created. It will connect all Government Departments, statutory agencies,

research organisations/ institutions and humanitarian organisations to share collectively and

individually their knowledge and technical expertise. ICT would be utilized to disseminate

knowledge to the stakeholder so that they can benefit from it.

Uploading of information on resources on India Disaster Resource Network(IDRN):

IDRN, a web based nationwide information system for district level resource, is a platform for

managing the inventory of equipment, skilled human resources and critical supplies for emergency

response. This database will enable decision makers to assess the level of preparedness for specific

vulnerabilities. IDRN is an inventory of all specialist equipment required for emergency/disaster

response which will give at the touch of a button the location of specific equipment/specialist

resources as well as the controlling authority for that resource so that it can be mobilized for

response in the shortest possible time.

Documentation of Lessons Learnt and Best Practices

The responsible department for documentation part is revenue department for the district and all

concerned departments. The indigenous technical knowledge would be documented and

promoted. And in the immediate aftermath of any disaster or incident, field studies will be carried

out, with the help of experts wherever needed, as an institutional measure. These studies will

concentrate on identifying gaps in the existing prevention and mitigation measures and also

evaluate the status of preparedness and response. Similarly, the lessons of past disasters will also

be compiled and documented. The recovery and reconstruction process will also be analysed for

further refining the DM processes and training needs.

5.2.9. Media management/ information dissemination

Media plays a critical role in the information and knowledge dissemination in all phases of

Disaster Management including IRS structure. The versatile potential of both electronic and

print media needs to be fully utilised. Effective partnership with the media will be worked out

in the field of community awareness, early warning and dissemination, and education regarding

various disasters. The use of vernacular media would be harnessed for community education,


awareness and preparedness at the local level and the DPRO in consultation with DDMA would

take appropriate steps in this direction. Both print and electronic media are regularly briefed at

predetermined time intervals about the events that occur and the prevailing situation on

ground.

With regards to media training and capacity building the District Administration and DPRO need

to monitor and facilitate trainings of the personals of media for Disaster Management and

presentation keeping the sensitivity of the issue during an incident, especially of the Official

Spokesperson. The Spokesperson should be the one appointed by Chairman of DDMA / RO/ IC

in IRT under the Information and Media unit to disseminate the information of the incident.

5.2.10.. School preparedness

The District Education Officer of the district in coordination with the DDMA will ensure that

the schools in the district are prepared to respond to various disasters. Towards

strengthening preparedness the following action will be undertaken:

• Train the school teachers, staff and students to respond to disasters

• Prepare school disaster management and preparedness plan and hold mock drills

• Prepare school level task forces and train them

• Maintain emergency contact numbers of service providers such as Police, Hospitals,

Ambulance services, DDMA etc


Chapter - 6

Capacity Building and Training Measures

6.1 INTRODUCTION AND APPROACH

As per the Disaster Management Act (2005), capacity-building includes:

1. Identification of existing resources and resources to be acquired or created;

2. Acquiring or creating resources identified under sub-clause (i);

3. Organization and training of personnel and coordination of such trainings for

effective management of disasters.

The primary purpose of Capacity-Building in Disaster Management is to reduce risk and

thus make Communities Safer. This can be done by increasing resilience and enhancing

coping capacities. Effective Capacity-Building at the district level requires the active

participation of all those who are tasked with it. It must, therefore, include maintaining a

comprehensive and up-to-date District Disaster Management Resource Inventory,

Awareness Generation, and Education, Research and Development (R&D) and systematic

and systematized training.

The Deputy Commissioner should ensure the following Capacity-Building Activities

of the entire district, and the various Heads of Departments should ensure Capacity-

Building of their respective departments. Furthermore, the Nodal Officers should, in

coordination with the HOD’s, procure relevant equipment for Disaster Management

Activities.

Stake Holder Departments:-

There are gaps identified in the chapter-2 of the plan. These gaps need to be covered under

a well defined Training and Capacity Building Program. Following table consists of the list


of Stake Holder departments available in the in the district who’s capacity needs to be

improved and enhanced in order to better preparedness and response to a disaster.

Table: 6.1

S.No Stake holder departments

1. Revenue department

10. BRO

11. Nehru yuva Kendra

12. Mountaineering sub centre

13. Sports and youth development

14. Financial institution (banks)

15. NGO’s, CBO’s

Training and capacity building needs of different stakeholders are classified, based on the

gaps identified from the chapter 2 of the DDMP, and opinions obtained from different

consultation meetings held at the district level. To reduce the identified capacity gaps

trainings will be conducted at following levels:-

1. Policy level

2. Cutting edge level

3. community level

The trainings are further categorized in to Long term, Medium Term and Short term

training. Long term meaning that the training need to be offered for about 5-8 years,

Medium term meaning that the training need to be offered for about 3-4 years and short

term meaning that the training need to be offered for 1-2 years. The training plan also

provides information regarding the responsible person department wise for carrying out

these training. The departments are expected to prepare an action plan to hold these

training in consultation with the DDMA. Detailed training and capacity building plan is

provided below in the table 6.2. the table details about the type of the training and

audience needed to be trained. The responsible department is responsible to conduct the

mentioned training in the table 6.2 and the supporting department will support the

responsible department with its resources such as human resources and other available


resources required to conduct the mentioned program. Frequency of the of the program

describes that how often the training program will be conducted annually and the time

frame describes the time limit (short term 1 to 2 years, medium term 3 to 4 years, and Long

Term 5 to 6 years) in which the mentioned capacity building program will cover all the

stake holders to enhance their capacities and fulfill the gaps identified.

The primary purpose of capacity-building in disaster management is to reduce risk and thus

make communities safer. This can be done by increasing resilience and enhancing coping

capacities. Effective capacity-building at the district level requires the active participation of all

those who are tasked with it. It must, therefore, include maintaining a comprehensive and up-

to-date District Disaster Management Resource Inventory, awareness generation, education,

Research and Development (R&D) and systematic and systematized training.

The Deputy Commissioner should ensure the following capacity-building activities of the

entire district, and the various Heads of Departments should ensure capacity-building of their

respective departments. Furthermore, the Nodal Officers should, in coordination with the

HODs, procure relevant equipment for disaster management activities.

6.2 Following stakeholders are key for disaster response and hence they need to be

adequately trained for managing response. The capacity building will cover functional,

managerial as well as policy aspects of Disaster Management. To enhance capacity for

disaster management the following training plan is proposed:

CHAPTER - 7

Response Plan

7.1. INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVE

The post disaster phase of Disaster Management looks into Relief, rehabilitation, reconstruction

and recovery. The effective disaster management strategy aims to lessen disaster impacts

through strengthening and reorienting existing organizational and administrative structure

from district – state to national level. Relief on the contrary, is viewed as an overarching

system of facilitation of assistance to the victims of disaster for their rehabilitation in States and

ensuring social safety and security of the affected persons. Relief needs to be prompt, adequate

and of approved standards. It is no longer perceived only as gratuitous assistance or provision

of emergency relief supplies on time. Emergency response plan is, thus, a first attempt to

follow a multi-hazard approach to bring out all the disasters on a single platform,

incorporating disaster resilient features to ‘build back better’ as the guiding principle. It

provides a framework to the primary and secondary agencies and departments, which can

outline their own activities for disaster response. Response process begins as soon as it

becomes apparent that a disastrous event is imminent and lasts until the disaster is declared

to be over Disaster response is aimed at: Saving Life-Minimize the Loss- Stabilizing the

Situation.

7.2. RESPONSE PLANNING

The onset of an emergency creates the need for time sensitive actions to save life and property,

reduce hardships and suffering, and restore essential life support and community systems, to

mitigate further damage or loss and provide the foundation for subsequent recovery. Effective

response planning requires realistic identification of likely response functions, assignment of

specific tasks to individual response agencies, identification of equipment, supplies and

personnel required by the response agencies for performing the assigned tasks. A response

plan essentially outlines the strategy and resources needed for search and rescue, evacuation,

etc.

Resource mobilization is one of the most important and crucial activity when any disaster

occurs in the district for responding to disaster in an efficient manner. The IDRN portal has

information regarding the different kind of resources available for multi-hazard, with the

various departments along with their location across district. It can lead to quick and immediate

procurement of the required resources from the nearest available site and department for

response to any disaster.

Various resources required in the damages and needs assessment will be mobilized by

the concerned departments. Following is the list of the departments which are responsible for

mobilizing various needs identified in the damages and needs assessment:

7.6. Response Management

7.6.1. Activation of EOC

The DEOC will function to its fullest capacity on the occurrence of disaster. The district

DEOC will be fully activated during disasters. The activation would come into effect either on

occurrence of disaster or on receipt of warning. On the receipt of warning or alert from any

approved agency which is competent to issue any early emergency warning, or on the basis of

reports from SDO (Civil) or any other agencies on the occurrence of a disaster, all community

preparedness measures including counter-disaster measures will be put into operation. The

Deputy Commissioner will assume the role of the Chief of Operations for Disaster Management.

All line department senior officials will be immediately reported to the DEOC. The DDMA will

expand the Emergency Operations Centre to include Branch arrangements with responsibilities

for specific tasks depending on the nature of disaster and extent of its impact. All the

occurrences report would be communicated to the SEOC/SDMA, NEOC/NDMA and Supporting

Agencies by means of telephone and subsequently fax periodically. The occurrence of disaster

shall be immediately communicated to the stakeholders such as NGOs, trained SAR volunteers

through SMS gateway (or telephonic in case of communication exist or any available

communication network) for which specific provision of group mobile directory would be made.

Main Roles of DEOC after activation:

a. Assimilation and dissemination of information.

b. Liaise between Disaster site and State Head Quarter.

c. Monitoring, coordinate and implement the DDMP.

d. Coordinate actions and response of different departments and agencies.

e. Coordinate relief and rehabilitations operations

f. Hold press briefings.

7.6.2. Relief distribution: - relief distribution will be coordinated by sub divisional, tehsil and

respective disaster management committees. The onsite distribution will be done by incident

response team. The updated needs will be communicated to the DDMA and the DDMA will

ensure the regular supply of the required items. The relief distribution will include essential

items which serves the basic needs of the affected community like LPG , medicines, clothes,

food items, drinking water, soaps, blankets, items of special needs for women’s, children’s,

handicapped and old aged.

7.6.3. Search and rescue management

Search and Rescue activities include, but are not limited to, locating, extricating, and

providing immediate medical assistance to victims trapped in exigency situation. People who

are trapped under destroyed buildings or are isolated due to any disaster need immediate

assistance. The District Commissioner, in conjunction with local authorities will be responsible

for the search and rescue operations in an affected region. At present, Nodal department for


this activity is NDRF and Home Guard/civil Defence Department. The helping departments for

search and rescue are P.W.D., Nagar Panchayat/Nagar Palika, Self-help groups, N.S.S, N.C.C, and

PRIs. There are other bodies too that help these departments in this work, like, Health

department, Fire department.In doing so, the DC will be guided by relevant disaster

management plans and will be supported by Government departments and local authorities.

Dedicated search and rescue teams from various line departments has been formed to

support the search and rescue operations in the district and more details given regarding this

mentioned in Annexure-VII. Team members have to be periodically trained retrained on the

elements of collapsed structure, confined space search & rescue, and rope rescue etc.

7.6.4. Information management and Media management

Media has to play a major during disaster. They will aid in information dissemination

about help-line, aid-distribution camps, emergency phone number or the needs of the people.

Further, they will also help in quashing rumors, for crowd management and prevent panic

situation. Media will also help in mobilizing resources [money, volunteers etc.] from other

areas. To disseminate information about various hazards in the district and the relevant dos

and don‘ts during and after a disaster encompass under the media management. This will be

done through various media such as newspapers, television, radio, internet, media and

information van, street theatre, etc. The DDMA will establish an effective system of

collaborating with the media during emergencies. At the District Emergency Operation Centre

(DEOC), a special media cell will be created during the emergency. Both print and electronic

media are regularly brief by some senior official designated from DDMA at predetermined time

intervals about the events as they occur and the prevailing situation on ground. The DPRO in

consultation with the DDMA would take appropriate steps in this direction also too.

7.6.5. VIP management

It may be possible that the scale of a disaster may in addition prompt visits of the VVIPS/VIP

which further requires the active management to ensure the effortlessly ongoing response and

relief work without any interruption. DDMA will designate senior official to handle the

VVIPs/VIPs visits to the affected areas and further to brief the VVIP/VIP beforehand about the

details of casualties, damage and the nature of the disaster. The Police and Home guard will

handle all the security of VVIPs/VIP during their visit. It would be desirable to restrict media

coverage of such visits, in which case the police should liaise with the government press officer

to keep their number to minimum.

7.6.6. NGO Coordination and Management

Non-governmental organizations (NGOs) will play as one of the most effective alternative

means of achieving an efficient communications link between the disaster management

agencies and the effected community due to their outreach at the grassroots level. As per the

section 35 and 38 of the DM Act 2005 stipulates that the DDMA shall specifically emphasize the

coordination of actions with NGOs. In typical disaster situation, DDMA with the support of


DRDA, will coordinate the NGOs/CBO’s and further manage their work in prompt response,

relief and rescue and also in monitoring and feedback at grassroots level by the agreeable

community participation.

7.6.7. Disposal of dead bodies and carcass

District administration will coordinate to arrange the mass cremation burial of the dead bodies

with support of police & forest department after observing all codal formalities & maintain the

video recording of such unclaimed dead bodies after properly handing over the same to their

kith or kin. Department of animal husbandry in association with the local administration shall

be responsible for the deposal of the animal carcass in case of mass destruction.


Chapter – 8

Reconstruction, Rehabilitation and Recovery

8. INTRODUCTION

Reconstruction, Rehabilitation and Recovery process demands co-ordinate focus on multi

disciplinary aspects of reconstruction and rehabilitation for recovery and is essential to

understand disaster reconstruction, rehabilitation under the holistic framework of post disaster

recovery. It will be in the form of recommendation rather than the rule.

Rehabilitation and reconstruction are primarily carried out by the local bodies (Gram

Panchayats, District, Talukas, Municipal Corporations, Municipalities, etc.) and different

Government departments and boards. The reconstruction and rehabilitation plan is designed

specifically for worst case scenario. Post disaster reconstruction and rehabilitation should pay

attention to the following activities for speedy recovery in disaster affected areas. The

contribution of both government as well as affected people is significant to deal with all the

issues properly. Immediate and Long Term recovery plan includes following broad activities:

• Damage assessment

• Disposal of debris

• Disbursement of assistance for houses

• Formulation of assistance packages

• Monitoring and review

• Relocation

• Town planning and development plans

• Reconstruction as Housing Replacement Policy

• Awareness and capacity building

• Housing insurance


• Grievance redressal

Sector specific approach and processes for Reconstruction, Rehabilitation and Recovery are as

follows:

CHAPTER 9: FINANCIAL RESOURCES FOR

IMPLEMENTATION OF DDMP

9.1 EXISTING SOURCES OF FUNDS FOR DISASTER MANAGEMENT IN THE DISTRICT:

• State Disaster Response Fund (SDRF): SDRF is a fund constituted under section 48(1) (a)

of the Disaster Management Act, 2005 (53 of 2005), these guidelines are being issued

under section 62 of the DM Act, 2005.

Calamities Covered under SDRF: The SDRF shall be used only for meeting the

expenditure for providing immediate relief to the victims of cyclones, drought,

earthquake, fire, flood, tsunami, hailstorm, landslide, avalanches, cloud burst and pest

attack.

• National Disaster Response Fund (NDRF) : NDRF is a fund constituted under section 46

of the Disaster Management Act 2005.These Guidelines are issued under section 46 (2)

of the Disaster Management Act, 2005 (hereinafter DM Act, 2005), to supplement

funds from the State Disaster Response Fund (SDRF) of a State, to facilitate immediate

relief in case of calamities of a severe nature.

Calamities Covered under NDRF: Natural Calamities of Cyclone, drought,

earthquake, fire, flood, tsunami, hailstorm, avalanches, Cloud burst and pest attack

considered being of severe nature by Government of India and requiring expenditure by

a State Government in excess of the balances available in its own State Disaster

Response Fund (SDRF), will qualify for immediate relief assistance from NDRF.

• Flexi-funds under Centrally Sponsored Schemes: NITI Aayog has issued instructions for

Rationalization of CSS, vide OM No. O-11013/02/2015-CSS & CMC dated 17th

August,

2016. These instructions are applicable for Centrally Sponsored Schemes with one of the

key objective “To undertake mitigation/ restoration activities in case of natural

calamities, or to satisfy local requirements in areas affected by internal security

disturbances. Therefore the CSS mentioned in Chapter 4 of this plan are one potential

source of funding for mitigation/restoration activities.

9.2 FUNDS TO BE CREATED UNDER DM ACT 2005

• District Disaster Response Funds (DDRF)

DDRF is proposed to be created at the District Level as mandated by Section 48 of the

DM Act. The disaster response funds at the district level would be used by the DDMA

towards meeting expenses for emergency response, relief, rehabilitation in accordance


with the guidelines and norms laid down by the Government of India and the State

Government.

• District Disaster Mitigation Funds (DDMF)

District Disaster Mitigation funds would be created at the District Level as mandated

under Section 48 of the DM Act 2005. DDMF is to be used for the mitigation funds by

the DDMAs for the purpose of mitigation as per the HP State Disaster Management Rules

2011.

9.3 RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE STATE DEPARTMENTS AND AGENCIES

All State Government Departments, Boards, Corporations, PRIs and ULBS have to

prepare their DM plans under Section 40 of The DM Act 2005. These Departmental DM Plans

are already under preparation at the State Level including the financial projections to support

these plans. The necessary financial allocations will be made as part of their annual budgetary

allocations, and ongoing programmes. They will also identify mitigation projects and project

them for funding in consultation with the SDMA/DDMA to the appropriate funding agency.

9.4 TECHNO-FINANCIAL REGIME

Considering that the assistance provided by the Government for rescue, relief,

rehabilitation and reconstruction needs cannot compensate for massive losses on account of

disasters, new financial tools such as catastrophe risk financing, risk insurance, catastrophe

bonds, micro-finance and insurance etc., will be promoted with innovative fiscal incentives to

cover such losses of individuals, communities and the corporate sector. In this regard, the

Environmental Relief Fund under the Public Liability Insurance Act, 1991, enacted for providing

relief to chemical accident victims is worth mentioning. Some financial practices such as

disaster risk insurance, micro-finance and micro-insurance, warranty on newly constructed

houses and structures and linking safe construction with home loans will be considered for

adoption.

9.5 OTHER FINANCING OPTIONS

DDMA in coordination with the departments will identify other financing options for

restoration of infrastructure/livelihoods, like utilization of flexi fund within Centrally Sponsored

Scheme for mitigation/restoration activities in the event of natural calamities in accordance

with the broad objective of the Central Sector Scheme.

Opportunities of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) & Public-Private Sectors funds

investments would also be explored and elaborated by the DDMA for increasing disaster

resilience.

Chapter 11

Coordination Mechanism for

Implementation of DDMP

The Coordination between District and Local governments is vital for the proper disaster

management. It requires both inter departmental and intra departmental coordination with all

the stakeholder line departments and local bodies like, HPPWD, I&PH, HPSEB, Health and

Family Welfare, fire and home guards, police, BSNL, Food and Civil Supply, forest, revenue

Education, Agriculture horticulture, HRTC, Red Cross, MC,NGO’s. CBO’s and other local

authorities These partnerships recognize that each level of the disaster management

arrangements must work collaboratively to ensure the effective coordination of planning,

services, information and resources necessary for comprehensive disaster management.

The DDMP of the district is a three tier disaster management coordination based on bottom to

top approach i.e. tehsil level, Sub-Division level and District Level. This system enables a

progressive escalation of support and assistance.

The arrangements comprises of several key management and coordination structures. The

principal structures that make up the Arrangements are:

(A) Disaster management committees are operational at tehsil, Sub-Division and district

level. The above committees are responsible for planning, organising, coordinating and

implementing all measures required to mitigate, prevent, prepare, respond and recover

from disasters the affected area under their jurisdiction.

(B) Emergency Operation Centers at tehsil, Sub-Division and district levelsupports disaster

management groups while coordinating information, resources, and services necessary

for disaster operations.

(C) Functional agencies of district administration, DDMA and DDEC, are responsible to

coordinate and manage specific threats and provide support to other agencies on and

as require

11.1 INTRADEPARTMENTAL COORDINATION:-

Each stake holder department i.e, HPPWD, I&PH, HPSEB, Health and Family Welfare, fire

and home guards, police, BSNL, Food and Civil Supply, forest, revenue Education,

Agriculture horticulture, HRTC, Red Cross will constitute departmental level disaster


management committee headed by a gazetted officer pertaining to that department. The

committees will organise quarterly meetings of the committee members to analyses the

preparedness level of the department in regard to disaster management. The committee

will also decide the measures to be taken for reducing the gaps in their capacities and keep

the proper record of the same.

11.1.1 Sub division level coordination mechanism:-

As per the institutional mechanism, sub divisional officer (Civil) will call for the quarterly

meeting the sub division level disaster management committee to review the preparedness

level and plan to reduce the gaps identified. The chairperson will further report the

situation to the DDMA and send the requisition of resources if required.

11.1.2 Tehsil level coordination mechanism:-

As per the institutional mechanism, tehsildar will call for the quarterly meeting at the tehsil

level disaster management committee to review the preparedness level and plan to reduce

the gaps identified at Tehsil level.

11.1.3 Arrangements at local level

It is the local level that manages disasters within their own communities. Tehsil, sub

division and district levels are to provide additional resources, support, assistance and

expertise as required. Local government is the key management agency for disaster events

at local level. Local government achieves coordinated disaster management approach

through Local Disaster Management committees.

11.2 COORDINATION SYSTEM WITH INTER DEPARTMENTS AND AT DISTRICT LEVEL

The District Magistrate/DC is the head of the District administrative set up and chairperson of

the DDMA as per the DM Act, 2005. She / He has been designated as the responsible officer in

the District. The heads of different departments in the District will have separate roles to play

depending on the nature and kind of disaster. The roles and responsibilities of the members of

the DDMA will be decided in advance in consultation with the concerned members

11.2.1 Pre Disaster coordination: Minimum Annual meetings for review of preparedness and

discussing the roles and responsibilities of the line departments, tehsils and Sub Divisions. The


meeting agenda would be discussing the capacity of each department in terms of SAR

equipment’s and manpower and regular updation of the same

11.2.2 Disaster phase coordination: Coordination through phone or any other mode of

communication in a disaster phase is not possible hence all the line departments and training

institutes in the district should report to the DEOC as soon as the disaster strikes. After

loss/damage assessment at the DEOC, the RO (D.C) would direct various stake holders to deploy

their resources and task forces in the affected areas. Relief camps would be setup at a pre-

defined location.

11.2.3 Post disaster coordination: In the post disaster phase, the RO would take updates on the

conditions of basic amenities like water, food, roads, law and order etc from the respective

departments. An assessment of relief given and need of rehabilitation would also be taken in

the post disaster phase.

11.3 COORDINATION MECHANISM WITH COMMUNITY

The community will be coordinated through the village disaster management committees. The

mentioned committees generally comprises of


Frequency of local Committee meetings

Local Committee meetings must be held at least once in every six months at particular time and

place decided by the chairperson of the group. In addition, the chairperson of a Local

Committee must call a meeting if asked, in writing, to do so by:

a) The District Authority for the Disaster district in which the Local Committee is situated; or

b) At least one-half plus one of the members of the Local Committee.

c) To help the Local government to prepare a local disaster management plan for its area;

d) To identify, and provide advice to the relevant District Authority about support services

required by the Local Committee to facilitate disaster management and disaster operations

in the area;

e) To ensure the community is aware of ways of mitigating the adverse effects of an event,

and preparing for responding to and recovering from a disaster;

f) To manage disaster operations in the area under policies and procedures decided by the

district Authority;

g) To provide reports and make recommendations to the relevant District Authority about

matters relating to disaster operations;

h) To identify, and coordinate the use of resources that may be used for disaster operations in

the area;

i) To establish and review communication systems in the Local Committee, and with the

relevant District Authority and other Local Committees in the situation of disaster.

j) To ensure that information about a disaster in the area is promptly given to the relevant

District Authority, and

k) To ensure risk management and contingency arrangements of essential services within the

Local government area. Further information about the functions of the Local Authority may

be found under sections 41 of the DM Act 2005

11.4 Coordination mechanism with NGOs, CBOs, Self Help Groups (SHGs)

The strong linkages which NGOs CBOs have with grassroots communities can be effectively

harnessed for creating greater public awareness on disaster risk and vulnerability, initiating

appropriate strategies for strengthening the capacity of stakeholder groups to improve disaster

preparedness, mitigation and improving the emergency response capacities of the

stakeholders.

In addressing the emerging concerns of climate change adaptation and mitigation, NGOs can

play a very significant role in working with local communities and introducing innovative

approaches based on the good practices followed in other countries.

NGOs can bring in the financial resources from bi-lateral and multilateral donors for

implementing pragmatic and innovative approaches to deal with disaster risk and vulnerability,

by effectively integrating and converging the various government programs, schemes and

projects to create the required synergy in transforming the lives of at-risk communities.


THE DDMA will maintain a proper record of the NGO’s and CBO’s working in the district and

also map the available resources for them. The DDMA will appoint a Nodal officer for

coordination with NGO’s, CBO’s and SHG’s. The DDMA will call annual meeting of NGO’s, CBO’s

& SHG’s for mapping their resources. The meeting will be coordinated by the designated Nodal

officer.

11.5 Coordination with other districts and state:

The DDMA will call annual meeting with neighboring district authorities pertaining to Disaster

risk reduction and capacity building by reducing the existing gaps through regular coordination.

The DDMA will participate in the meetings called by SDMA or other State level authorities to

promote coordination with other districts and state authorities.

GUIDELINES FOR DISPOSAL OF ANIMAL CARCASSES

Guidelines for Burial

• Burial shall be performed in the most remote area possible.

• Burial areas shall be located a minimum of 300 feet down gradient from wells, springs

and other water sources.

• Burial shall not be made within 300 feet of streams or ponds, or in soils identified in the

country soil survey as being frequently flooded.

• The bottom of the pit or trench should be minimum 4 to 6 feet above the water table.

• Pits or trenches shall approximately be 4 to 6 feet deep. They should have stable slopes

not steeper than 1 foot vertical to 1 foot horizontal.

• Animal Carcasses shall be uniformly placed in the pit or trench so that they do not

exceed a maximum thickness of 2 feet. The cover over and surrounding shall be a

minimum of 3 feet. The cover shall be shaped so as to drain the runoff away from the pit

or trench.

• The bottom of trenches left open shall be sloped to drain and shall have an outlet. All

surface runoff shall be diverted from entering the trench.

• Burial areas shall be inspected regularly and any subsidence or cavities filled.

Guidelines for Composting

• Select site that is well drained, at least 300 feet from water sources, sinkholes, seasonal

seeps or other landscape features that indicate hydrological sensitivity in the area.

• Lay 24-inch bed of bulky, absorbent organic material containing sizeable pieces 4 to 6

inches long. Wood chips or hay straw work well. Ensure the base is large enough to

allow for 2-foot clearance around the carcass.

• Lay animal in the centre of the bed. Lance the rumen to avoid bloating and possible

explosion. Explosive release of gases can result in odour problems and it will blow the

cover material off the compositing carcass.

• When disposing large amounts of blood or body fluid, make sure there is plenty of

material to absorb the liquid. Make a depression so blood can be absorbed and then

cover, if a blood spill occurs, scrape it up and put back in pile.

• Cover carcass with dry, high-carbon material, old silage, sawdust or dry stall bedding

(some semi-solid manure will expedite the process). Make sure all residuals are well

covered to keep odours down, generate heat or keep vermin or other unwanted animals

out of the window.

• Let it sit for 4 to 6 months, then check to see if carcass is fully degraded.

• Reuse the composted material for carcass compost pile, or remove large bones and land

apply.


• Site cleanliness is the most important aspect of composting; it deters scavengers, and

helps control odours and keeps good neighbourly relations.

Note: Animals that show signs of a neurological disease, animals that die under quarantine and

those with anthrax should not be composted.
