Disaster Management Flooding and Landslide
1. FLOOD
A flood is submerging of normally dry land by an overflow of
water. It can be localized event affecting a small area of land or
a very big disaster that can have impact on whole island or river
basin.
River floods • Most common type of flood event
Flash floods • Extreme version of a river flooding event

URBAN FLOODS
TYPE OF FLOOD
Duration of flood
• Slow-Onset Floods: can last for longer period
• Rapid-Onset Floods: shorter period like one or two days.
• Flash Floods: Flash Floods may occur within minutes or a
few hours after heavy rainfall, tropical storm, failure of
dams or levees or releases of ice dams.

5. FLOODING issues India
Floods cause damage to houses,
industries, public utilities and property
resulting in huge economic losses, apart
from loss of lives.
6. •Non-availability of
close contour maps
and digital elevation
models of flood prone
Areas.
•Flood plain zoning
regulations have not
been enacted and
enforced by most of the
States
•Implementation of the
flood proofing measures
such as raising of villages,
constructions of floods
shelters is not proper.
•Reservoirs is often
carried out disregarding
flood moderation
aspects.
•Rivers erode a significant
amount of land every
year. Conventional anti-
erosion measures require
high investment.
Lacks public participation
and awareness
Flood forecasting and
warning not proper
There is no proper
documentation about
floods, their impact

8. National Disaster Management Guidelines
• To minimise vulnerability to floods and loss of lives,
livelihood systems, property and damage to infrastructure &
utilities
• Flood damage assessment be made on a realistic and
scientific basis and recorded basin- /sub-basin-wise.
• Performance evaluation of a large number of FM schemes
be carried out and their impact on the socio economic
development of the protected area be assessed.
• The use of flood plains be regulated and a suitable
legislation for flood plain zoning be enacted and enforced.
• Water Resources planning and construction be basin wise
and basin organizations be set up.
• Storages and measures for FM and flood space in
reservoirs be provided to the extent feasible and flood
control not relegated to a non- priority activity as against
competing water requirements for hydropower and
Irrigation purposes.
• International dimensions of problem of floods be kept in
mind and the GOI should play an important role in the
matter.
• Requisite funds be made available for construction of new
and maintenance of existing works.

13. EXISTING STRATEGIES
Report drafted in 2004 provides broad guidelines to exercise
mitigation strategies:
• Every department should have appropriate funds for
preparedness.
• The projects incorporating mitigation measures, in their
plans, should be given priority over the other projects to
be approved.
• Involvement of the general public and generation of
awareness
• A close interaction should be established between the
“corporate sector, non-governmental organizations and
the media,”
• disaster managers at different levels of the government
should be appropriately “trained.
• during the emergencies, arrangements should be made
to share resources such as power, food and funds
amongst the states.
• All the vital buildings in flood prone zones they should be
strengthened or remodeled to deal with the expected
disasters in the future.
Major recommendations in the BRIMSTOWAD report, 1993
• Removal of obstructions, to rehabilitate old/dilapidated SWD
system in City and augmentation of SWD in certain stretches,
to remove encroachments.
• To change the design criteria from 25 mm/hr to 50 mm/hr
rainfall intensity and coefficient of runoff as 1.00 from earlier
value of 0.50.
• To augment the SWD system with tidal effects and widen.
• To augment railway culverts at various flood prone areas
• To provide pumping stations at the city outfalls at Haji Ali,
Love Grove and Worli.
Role of the Government
Decentralizing the decision-making process to the local
level to ensure prompt action.
Reframing existing framework
The Role of the Private Sector:
Public private partnership in mitigation
Non governmental organization.
14. National Disaster Management Guidelines.

flooding, different weather systems in India, variability of rainfall, different city scenarios and genesis of the Guidelines.
Chapter 2 provides present status of the institutional framework at the national, state and the local levels, role of central ministries
and departments, states and urban local bodies and other local authorities/organizations.
Chapter 3 discusses present status of flood forecasting, warning and communication system. The gaps are identified and
recommendations have been made for enhancing capabilities, using state-of-the-art equipment.
Chapter 4 reviews the existing international and national status, practices for the design and maintenance of urban drainage
systems. Gaps have been identified and recommendations made to develop efficient drainage systems with improved operations
and maintenance actions.
Chapter 5 covers urban flood risk management issues, vulnerability analysis, risk assessment and hazard mapping, damage
assessment and data generation options, etc.

15. LANDSLIDE
• A landslide is a downward or
outward movement of soil,
rock or vegetation, under the
influence of gravity.
• Three distinct physical events
occur during a landslide: the
initial slope failure, the
subsequent transport, and the
final deposition of the slide
materials.
TYPES OF LANDSLIDES
a) Rotational slides: move along a surface of
rupture that is curved and concave
b) Translational slides occurs when the failure
surface is approximately flat
c) Rock Fall: Free falling of detached bodies of
bedrock (boulders) from a cliff.
d) Rock toppling occurs when one or more
rock units rotate about their base.
e) Lateral spreading occurs when the soil mass
spreads laterally and crack happen.
f) Debris Flow: Down slope movement
16. • Landslides are a natural hazard that affect at least 15 per
cent of the land area of our country, covering an area of
more than 0.49 million sq. km,.
• There are more than 25 river dam projects on the river Ganga
and its tributaries in the hills alone. A number of tunnels and
towers have inflicted heavy damages to the slopes

17. EFFECTS AND LOSSES DUE TO LANDSLIDES
A) Direct Effects:
Physical Damage-Debris may block roads, supply lines
(telecommunication, electricity, water, etc.) and
waterways.
Causalities- deaths and injuries to people and animals.
B) Indirect Effects:
Influence of landslides in dam safety- failure of
the slopes bordering the reservoir, Flooding caused by
movements of large masses of soil into the reservoir.
13
Landslides and flooding- Debris flow can cause
flooding by blocking valleys and stream channels,
C) Direct losses:
Loss of life, property, infrastructure and lifeline
facilities, etc.
D) Indirect losses:
Loss in productivity of agricultural or forest lands,
Reduced property values, Loss of revenue, Increased
cost, Adverse effect on water quality and Loss of
human productivity,

EARLY WARNING SYSTEM FOR LANDSLIDE
The system consists in 13 wire
extensometers, 1 thermometer, 1
rain gauge and 3 cameras.
An early warning system was set up
on a rock wedge of
182,000 m3 menacing a street.
► It includes a wireless sensor
network with 13 extensometers and
other sensors.
► Alarm levels and thresholds
based on the characteristics of the
site were selected.
► The system is simple and
flexible and some ideas can be used
for similar cases.

20. Highlights of important recommendations in guidelines
• Developing and continuously updating the inventory of landslide incidences affecting the country.
• landslide hazard zonation mapping in macro and meso scales after identification and prioritization of the areas
• Taking up pilot projects in different regions of the country with a view to carry out detailed studies and monitoring
of selected landslides to assess their stability status and estimate risk. setting pace setter examples for
stabilisation of slides and also setting up early warning systems
• Complete site specific studies of major landslides and plan treatment measures, and encourage state
governments to continue these measures.
• Setting up of institutional mechanisms for generating awareness and preparedness about landslide hazard
among various stakeholders.
• Enhancing landslide education, training of professionals and capacity development of organisations working in
the field of landslide management. Capacity development and training to make the response regime more
Strategies for landslide risk treatment landslide risk treatment is the ultimate objective of the risk management
process which aims to mitigate the effects of the hazard. This encompasses a five-pronged strategy comprising:
• Treating vulnerable slopes and existing hazardous landslides.
• Restricting development in landslide-prone areas.
• Preparing codes for excavation, construction and grading.
• Protecting existing developments.
• Monitoring and warning systems.
• Putting in place arrangements for landslide insurance and compensation for losses
