- 3. Disaster • Disaster isa natural or human , caused phenomenon, which causes serious disruption of the functioning of a community or a society causing widespread human, material, economic and environmental losses which elicited the ability of the affected community, society to cope using its resources. • Floods are a common feature in the country that occur every year inmany parts including South India. 3
- 4. INTRODUCTION Aflood occurs whenthe Geomorphic Equilibrium in the river system is disturbed because of intrinsic or extrinsic factors or when a system crosses the geomorphic threshold. (a) Flooding in a river due to aggradation of river bed (intrinsic threshold); (b) Flooding in a river due to heavy rainfall (extrinsic threshold) Floods in major cities especially during rainy season are proving to disastrous not only to the environment but also have serious implications for human life and property.

- 5. TYPESOFFLOODS • Types offloods •Flash floods •River floods •Coastal Floods •Urban Flood • According to their duration flood can be divided into different categories: •Slow-Onset Floods: Slow Onset Floods usually last for a relatively longer period, it may last for one or more peeks, or even months. •Rapid-Onset Floods: Rapid1Onset Floods last for a relatively shorter period, they usually last for one or two days only. •Flash Floods: Flash Floods may occur within minutes or a fe1w hours after heavy rainfall, tropical storm, failure of dams or levees or releases of ice dams. And it causes the greatest damages to society.
- 6. The soil becomes saturatedand overland flow and through flow reach the river and discharge increases. Overland flowarrives first. The time from peak rainfall topeak discharge is the LAGTIME. The discharge starts to fall slowly as water is added from through flow and groundwater flows which are much slower. The base flow supplies the river with water between storms and keeps it flowing in summer.Rainfall is intercepted or infiltrated into the soil moisture store Start of the storm there is a slow rise in discharge, as onlya small amount of water falls into the channel
- 7. Contd…. Floods Natural Storm Surge, Tsunami, GlacialMelt, Landslide, Riverine, Estuarine &Marine Flood Eg:bursting of landslide blockades in the catchment areaof the Bhagirathi River in August 1978 (Gupta and Dave, 1982). Man made Breach of Dam/ Barrage/ Embankment Release from Reservoir, Urban Flood Eg:In the year 2009,Almatti and Naryanpur dams on the Krishna River in Karnataka. This water along with rain water reached Andhra Pradesh near the Srisailam dam. It causes a hevy floods in andhrapradesh

- 9. FACTORS VEGETATION COVER This variesseasonally. The type and amount will affect interception and stemflow/throughfall. Overland flowis reduced. Lagtime will be increased. ROCKTYPE Impermeable rocks prevent groundwater flow and encourage through flow and overland flow. These rocks will decrease lag time. Permeable rock will have the opposite effect. LAKES&RESERVOIRS These will store floodwater and thus reduce lag time andcontrol river response to heavy rainfall. SOILTYPE&DEPTH Deep soils store more water, pipes in the soil encourage through flow. Soils with small pore spaces will reduce infiltration and increase overland flow. LAND USE Impermeable surfaces created by urbanisation will reduce infiltration and encourage overland flow. Different types of crops affect interception rates e.g. cereals 7-15%. RAINFALLINTENSITY&DURATION Intense rain will increase overland flow and reduce lag times. Gentle rain over a longer time will allow more infiltration. SLOPES Steep slopes will encourage overland flow and gentle slope will slow run off down. CLIMATE The distribution of rainfall over the year and the temperatures will affect the lag times.

- 11. Flood forecasting • Anticipatingfloods before they occur allows for precautions to be taken and people to be warned so that they can be prepared in advance for flooding conditions. • For example, – Farmers can remove animals from low-lying areas and utility services can put in place emergency provisions to re-route services if needed. Emergency services can also make provisions to have enough resources available ahead of time to respond to emergencies as they occur. • In order to make the most accurate flood forecasts for waterways, it is best to have a long time-series of historical data that relates stream flows to measured past rainfall events • Radar estimates of rainfall and general weather forecasting techniquesare also important components of good flood forecasting.
- 12. Flood Control • Inmany countries around the world, waterways prone to floods are often carefully managed. Defences such as levees, bunds, reservoirs, and weirs are used to prevent waterways from overflowing their banks. • In the riparian zone near rivers and streams, erosion control measures can be taken to try and slow down or reverse the natural forces that cause manywaterways to meander over long periods of time. • Flood controls, such as dams, can be built and maintained over time to try and reduce the occurrence and severity of floods aswell.
- 13. Flood benefits • Floods(in particular more frequent or smaller floods) can also bring many benefits, such as – Recharging ground water, – Making soil more fertile and increasing nutrients in some soils. • Flood waters provide much needed water resources in arid and semi-arid regions where precipitation can be very unevenly distributed throughout the year. • Freshwater floods particularly play an important role in maintaining ecosystems in river corridors and are a key factor in maintaining floodplain biodiversity. • Flooding can spread nutrients to lakes and rivers, which can lead to increased biomass and improved fisheries for a few years. • For some fish species, an inundated floodplain may form a highly suitable location for spawning with few predators and enhanced levels of nutrients or food. • Fish, such as the weather fish, make use of floods in order to reach new habitats. Bird populations may also profit from the boost in food production caused by flooding.

- 15. Floods in India Floods cause damage to houses, industries, public utilities and property resulting in huge economic losses, apart from loss oflives. Though it is not possible to control the flood disaster totally, by adopting suitable structural and non-structural measures the flood damages can be minimised. Parameters Area liable to Floods (million Ha.) Total Damage Rs.13,400 million Area Affected 8.11 million hectare Crop Area Affected 3.57 million hectare Human Lives Lost 1579 Nos.

- 22. Total flood damagestate wise and for the union territory of Delhi The macro-flood zones of India may be broadly grouped into the following zones: (a) Brahmaputra River Basin, (b) Ganga River Basin, (c) North-West Rivers Basin, and (d) Central India and Deccan Rivers Basin.
- 23. 2012 Brahmaputrafloods This wasanother sorrow caused to Assam in recent years. In July 2012, Brahmaputra and its tributaries showed its wrath and since it was natural but it grabs a spot atnumber 2 and eye-catching event because the main area which was affected included Kaziranga National Park, a park which is the natural habitat of Rhinos. It cause a death of 540 animals including 13 Rhinos. The main reasons behind this calamity is the deforestation in the area of passing by of Brahmaputra.
- 24. 2010 LadakhFloods. It was6th August 2010, when the series of natural disasters started to take place in Ladakh, a regional part of J&K( Jammu and Kashmir). It was accompanied with cloudburst, debris flows and Flash floods from Himalayan. Causality was less than 300 but a great loss of property was reported. Areas of Leh were also affected and it caused a loss of total Rs.133 crores INR. 26
- 25. 2005 : Maharashtraflood This was the major and the most devastating disaster occurred in Maharashtra, mainly engulfing areas of Mumbai, Chiplun, Khed, Kalyan, Ratnagiri and Raigad. The main problem arose with the people on the road and which caused a traffic jam and with it came the loss of people. Atotal of 5000 people were reported for the death toll. The date 26 July 2005 has been marked as one the BLACKDAYin the history of Mumbai.
- 26. 2004 Bihar Flood Beingconsidered as a flood prone area, Bihar is again in the list because of 2004 flood which it suffered. It was stated that a total of 883 people lost their lives and more than 3000 animals were killed. One of the most horrifying disaster caused almost a loss of Rs. 1,03,049.60 Lakh. Rivers, primarily, Gandak, Kosi, Mahananda, Bagmati, Budhi had already crossed the red mark while on the other hand Ganga first time in its history crossed the red mark in Farrakka Barrage.
- 27. STATEPERSPECTIVE • Latest reportssaid 150 villages in Srikakulam, Visakhapatnam, Krishna, Guntur and the east and west Godavari districts were submerged. Around 67,000 people had been evacuated. Crops spread over 2.5 lakh hectares of farmland were under water and schools remained shut.(2012)

- 57. Location • The cityis situated at the foot of a low range hills on the northern bank of the river Krishna with its cardinal points as 16° 31’ North latitude and 80° 37’East longitude, around 70 km away from thecoast.
- 58. Topographic Details • Theland lay of Vijayawada is characterized by four canals, four hills and the holy river Krishna. Vijayawada when approached from Guntur is welcomed by the historic gates across the holy river Krishna. The way to Machilipatnam runs parallel to Budamerru canal and crosses two other Canals There are four major hills: a) Indrakiladri hill b) Machavaram c) Gunadaa Hill d) Moghalrajapuram hill e) Gollapalem Gattu Hill
- 59. Krishna River • TheRiver Krishna takes of its origin in the western Ghats at an elevation of (+) 1336 Mts and runs for a length of about 1400 Kmand runs through Vijayawada city and joins at Bayof Bengal The length of Krishna River up to Prakasam Barrage is about 1310 km and the length from Prakasam Barrage to Puligadda Aqueduct is 64.00 kms. • The flow of the river is managed partially by the Nagarjuna Sagar dam which is located to the west of Krishna District and Prakasam Barrage which is located at the beginning of the city.
- 60. Krishna river flowdetails and distance of dam to dam The Krishna Flood bank Above Prakasam Barrage is about 13KM and bellow flood bank is 6.40 Kmwhich creates havoc in flood season whichstarts from June to December. Water release from barrage with 4,12,734 to 10,94422 Cusecs is been observed over the years.

- 66. Reasons for KrishnaFlood This region receives maximum rainfall both by southwest and retreating monsoons. The primary reason for the flooding is the unauthorized settlementsalong the river which had taken place due to lack of planning and enforcement. Vijayawada is located on the line which separates the delta-irrigatedlands Flood bank below barrage is about 6.40 Kmwhich creates havoc in flood season from June to December. High Water release at time from barrage with 4,12,734to 10,94422 Cusecs of water released in various years. Developmental activities like sluice connectivity to into the river iscausing back water(3 sluices connected into river) Bund cutting for public private developmental activities (ex: sluice, storm water drains) approach roads for biggervehicles. Allotting the residential areas officially in flood zone. Ex:Police colony.
- 67. Contd… • trespassing theriver bunds by people • damage to the river bunds byrodents • Breach occurrence and damages occurred to the flood bank with slips and erosion. • Negligence and helpless condition making people to stay at the houses even after passing the warnings • With little authoritative power over the settlements along the flood banks, the irrigation department is unable to attend swiftly in vulnerable areas.

- 72. MITIGATION Mitigation measuresare very important phase of disaster management. They will help to reduce the loss and increase the capacity of people in managing the disasters. The potential forecast outlook can be translated into early warning messages and initiate preventive/preparedness actions. • Asper the building byelaws 1981, no permission to construct a building on site shell be granted , if the site is with in 9 meters of the highest water mark of a tank • Further the authority may require the floor of the lowest styorey of such building to be raised above the normal minimum flood level of the adjoining to ground or to such other level as the authority may prescribe Shift or restrict the people living in flood banks to safe place by providing all aminities • Krishna Bund strengthening at Krishna lanka, ranadheevinagar, Bhupesh Gupta nagar • Krishna bund construction from police colony to yanamala kuduru • Raising the free board of Krishna flood bunds from 1.5 metre to 2 meters. • Shift the habitants of the flood zone of Budameru temporary or permanent to safe shelters after announcing the warning • Stop plowing / occupying the budameru bund from singh nagar to NSCBose nagar
- 73. Contd… • Providing Roadside rain water drains at banadar road • Providing Road side rain water drains Ayyappanagar Road • Providing Under ground drainage and sewer lines and construction of sump cum [Pump house • Construction of Flood banks for Krishna River and Budameru Floods • Renovation or construction of safe schools and providingsafety equipment at schools • Provision of Food to lactating mothers and Infants and children under 6 years reconstruction of rubbish or spoiled roads in many points of the city to protect form waterstagnation • Identify the high milkproduction and other animal or bird production areas, based on that preference should be given to provide all measures to those cattle and birds safety and multiplication
- 74. Beforethe Disaster DuringtheDisaster Afterthe Disaster • Learn warning signs and community alert system During a flood watch • Don't return home until authorities express itis safe to do so • Stockpile emergency building materials If indoors: •Turn on battery operated radio toget latest emergency information •Get pre-assembled emergency supplies •If told to leave, do soimmediately. If outdoors: •Climb to high ground and stay there •Avoid walking through any floodwaters. •If in a car, turn around and go another way; if your car stalls, abandon it immediately and climb to higher ground. During an evacuation: •If advised to evacuate, do so immediately to avoid flooded roads, being sure to follow recommended evacuation routes and listen to radio for evacuation instructions • Help neighbors whom may need assistance • Install check valves in sewer traps to • Use extreme caution when entering prevent flood waters from backing up in buildings sewer • Inspect foundations for cracks or other drains damage and examine walls, floors, doors, • Plan and practice an evacuation route and • Have disaster supplies on hand windows to make sure that the building is • Develop an emergency communication not plan in danger of collapsing in case of separation • Watch out for animals, especially • Askan out-of-state relative to serve as the poisonous "family contact" snakes, that may have come into your home • Teach family members how and when to with flood waters turn off the gas, electricity, and water and • Watch for loose plaster and ceilings that teach children how and when to call9-1-1 could fall • Askyour insurance agent about flood • Take pictures of damage forinsurance insurance claims • Look for fire hazards • Throw away all food (including canned) that has come in contact with flood waters • Pump out flooded basements gradually (~ 1/3 amount of water per day) toavoid structural damage • Service damaged septic tanks, cesspools, pits, and leaching systems ASAP– damaged sewage systems are health hazards.
- 75. PREPAREDNESS • State ofbeing ready to react promptly and effectively in an event of emergency (systematic way approach). Being prepared for severity vulnerability of the disaster .
