Programme for the Prevention, Preparedness and Response toNatural and Man-made Disasters in the EaP East – PPRD East 2

Activity A

PPRD East ProgrammePhase 2




General Objective of Activity A

Improvement of institutional and legal framework of partner countries on disaster management and prevention and approximation to EU Aquis and best practices

•Activity Area A will address:

•A1: the approximation of Partner Countries to the EU Floods Directive

•A2: development and/or further improvement of national risk assessments

•A3: improvement of Partner Countries’ legislative and institutional civil protection/disaster risk management framework




APPROXIMATION TO EU FLOOD DIRECTIVE

ACTIVITY A1




EU Flood Directive – a Policy framework for Flood Risk Assessment and Management

• Flood in Europe 1998-2009: 213 major damaging floods, 1126 deaths, half-million people displaced and at least €52 billion in insured economic losses.

• “The Directive requires Member States to assess if all water courses and coast lines are at risk from flooding, to map the flood extent and assets and humans at risk in these areas and to take adequate and coordinated measures to reduce this flood risk.”

1. Definition of Unit of Management2. Preliminary Risk Assessment3. Hazard and Risk Mapping4. Flood Risk Management Plans




Preliminary Risk Assessment

- Member States had to carry out Preliminary risk assessment by 2011

- Content of PRA:- Exposed elements (population, assets, etc)- Historical data on flood

- Area with Potentially Significant Flood Risk (APSFR)

- EU situation:- 15,660 of flood events reported (22 MSs)

- 4,830 Areas with Potentially Significant Flood Risk (22 MSs) -> approximately 200 per country

- The Electronic Regional Risk Atlas developed in PPRDEast 1 is an asset for PRA




STATUS of Implementation




Hazard and Risk Mapping

Hazard mapping

-Flood extend for different probability of occurrence

-Climate Change

Risk Mapping

-Exposure and vulnerability

-People, assets, economic consequences, environment, critical infrastructures, etc

Type: Reinforced concreteArea: 80 sqmOccupancy: 8 peopleUse: ResidentialValue: 20,000 US$

Member States have to carry out Hazard and Risk Mapping by 2013




Flood Risk Management Plan- Member States have to prepare FRMP by 2015

- Flood Risk Management Plans shall focus on the reduction of the likelihood of flood and of the potential adverse consequences of flooding for human health, the environment, cultural heritage and economic activity.

- Main Content of FRMP: a summary of the measures and their prioritization. Example of measures:

• Spatial planning• Early Warning System• Area which have the potential to retain flood water• New embankments• Controlled flooding • Promotion of sustainable land use practices




The Residual Risk is the result of the permanent risk mitigation planning (deferred time)

Hazard Reduction e.g. intervention on hydraulic infrastructures (levees, bridges..)

Intervention on exposed elements e.g. Relocation of buildings in high risk areas

Intervention programmes defined by suitable legislation during the deferred time

Vulnerability reduction e.g. zoning regulations regarding the use of ground floors and basements

The Residual Risk (RR) must be addressed by CP actions during real-time

Potential Flood area before the intervention

Potential Flood area after the intervention

e.g.,: electric system control relocation

WORK PLAN

ACTIVITY A1




Actvity A.1: Capacity Building for the Implementation of the EU Floods Directive and for addressing flood prevention

• Task A.1.1 Update on EU Floods Directive adoption in ENPI-EAST region

• Task A.1.2 Trainings for strengthening of capacities needed for the implementation of EU Floods Directive

• Task A.1.3 Development of flood hazard maps and flood risk maps




Task A.1.1 Update on EU Floods Directive adoption in ENPI-EAST region (year 1)

1. Follow-up short assessment missions to Partner Countries and desktop analyses (April-June 2015)

• Collecting existing documentation (both tech and legal)

• Initial drafting of national profiles on the status adoption of EU FD

• Initial identification of gaps and areas of excellence in Partner Countries

2. Preparation and organization of the Regional Workshop on Floods Directive (RW - Sept 2015)

• Presentation of GP of MSs and National Profiles

• Initial drafting of 6 National Road Maps, 2-sub regional road map (trans-boundaries issues), 1 regional road map




Task A.1.2 Trainings for strengthening of capacities needed for the implementation of EU Floods Directive1. Drafting the Guidelines on Flood Risk Management (July- Nov

2015)• Adaptation of existing selected guidance on FRM to PPRD East

environment

• Presentation of the draft at National Flood Risk Management Workshop

2. Organization of 6 National Flood Risk Management Workshops (year 2)

• Finalization of Guidelines with participants

• Address all phases of Flood Risk Management Adaptation of existing selected guidance on FRM to PPRD East environment

• Finalization of the 6 National Road Maps, 2 sub-regional and 1 Regional road for approximation to EU FD




Task A.1.3 Development of flood hazard maps and flood risk maps (year 2)

On Job Training programme will be developed to share with Partner Countries the most effective tools identified, through best practices in EU Member States, to implement the different phases of the EU Flood Directive.

On Job Trainings (OJT) will be delivered covering the following areas: (1) Risk assessment and risk mapping (in connection with Tasks C.1 and C.2) and (2) Risk Management Planning with focus on integrated flood risk management strategies.




DEVELOPMENT AND/OR FURTHER IMPROVEMENT OF NATIONAL RISK ASSESSEMENT

ACTIVITY A2




Multi-Hazard Disaster Risk Assessment and Management

- Multiple Hazards affect Countries

- ERRA and its extension – activity C.1- Multiple sectors are affected by disasters

- Population- Housing- Agriculture- Public buildings- critical infrastructures- Economy




Why Multi-Hazard Disaster Risk Assessment and Management

- Hazard prioritization- Hazard & Risk interaction- Resources leveraging: Asset mapping, Loss Data

recording methodology and repository maintenance, monitoring

- Minimization of tasks duplication

Activity A.2 Development and/or further improvement of national risk assessments (year 2 and 3)

• Build upon the hazard and risk assessment methodology developed in Phase I

• Build on results of activity A.1 (FD), C.1 (ERRA) and C.2 (Disaster Loss Database)

• Objective: raise the capacity of Partner Countries to undertake multi-hazards risk assessments and disaster risk management planning. Tasks:

1. Capacity building activities for multi-hazard risk assessments and disaster risk management planning

2. Multi-Risk Disaster Assessment at National Scale

3. Disaster Risk Management Planning at national and sub-national scale

- Strength the institutional arrangement of Partner Country

- achieve long term impacts of the capacity building actions
