Mysore District Profile
Mysore District is an administrative district located in the southern part of the state
of Karnataka, India. The district is bounded by Mandya district to the northeast,
Chamrajanagar district to the southeast, Kerala state to the south,Kodagu district to the west,
and Hassan district to the north. It features many tourist destinations, from Mysore
Palace to Nagarhole National Park. This district has a prominent place in the history
of Karnataka; Mysore was ruled by the Wodeyars from the year 1399 till the independence of India in
the year 1947. Mysore's prominence can be gauged from the fact that the Karnatakastate was known
previously as Mysore state.
It is the third most populous district in Karnataka (out of 30), after Bangaloreand Belgaum.
Geography
Mysore district is located between latitude 11°45' to 12°40' N and longitude 75°57' to 77°15'
E. It is bounded by Mandya district to the northeast, Chamrajanagar district to the southeast,
Kerala state to the south, Kodagu district to the west, andHassan district to the north. It has an area of
6,854 km² (ranked 12th in the state). The administrative center of Mysore District is Mysore City. The
district is a part of Mysore division. Prior to 1998, Mysore district also contained theChamarajanagar
district before that area was separated off.
The district lies on the undulating table land of the southern Deccan plateau, within the
watershed of the Kaveri River, which flows through the northwestern and eastern parts of the district.
The Krishna Raja Sagara reservoir, which was formed by building a dam across the Kaveri, lies on the
northern edge of the district. Nagarhole National Park lies partly in Mysore district and partly in
adjacent Kodagu District.
Climate The temperature in the district varies from 15 deg. C in winters to 35 deg. C in summers.
Mysore district receives an average rainfall of 785 mm.
Geology
The types of soil found in this district are red soils (red gravelly loam soil, red loam soil, red
gravelly clay soil, red clay soil), lateritic soil, deep black soil, saline alluvo-colluvial soil and brown
forest soil. Some of the minerals found in this district arekyanite, sillimanite,
quartz, magnesite, chromite, soapstone, felsite, corundum, graphite, limestone, dolomite, siliconite
anddunite
Economy
Agriculture is the backbone of the economy of this district as it is with the rest of India.
Though the agriculture is highly dependent on the rainfall, the rivers Kaveri and Kabini provide the
irrigation needs required for agriculture in this district. According to the 2001 census, about 3,25,823
farmers are involved in cultivation in this district. In the year 2001-2002, Mysore district yielded a
food grain production of 608,596 Tonnes which is a contribution of 6.94% of the total food grain
production in the state for the year.[11]
Some of the important crops grown here are
cotton, grams, groundnut, jowar, maize,ragi, rice, sugarcane, sunflower and tur.
Horticulture is
another area contributing significantly to the economy; especially the palm oil production in H D
Kote Taluk.
Industries
Industries in Mysore district are mainly concentrated around the cities in Mysore and
Nanjangud. Karnataka Industrial Areas Development Board (KIADB) has established two industrial
estates as Mysore and Nanjangud and established six industrial areas in Mysore district to encourage

Tourism is another big industry in Mysore. Its importance as a tourist destination was evident
when it was selected as the venue for the Karnataka Tourism Expo in 2006. Though Mysore city is
well known as a tourist place, other parts the district are yet to see growth in tourism. However, the
tourism department plans to develop other areas like Nanjangud, Bettadapura, Hedathali, Kapadi,
Mudukuthore Betta, Mugur and Tirumakudalu Narasipura as tourist places.
Divisions
Mysore district is divided into three subdivisions Mysore and Hunsur. The Mysore district
administration is headed by the Deputy Commissioner who also has the additional role of a District
Magistrate. Assistant Commissioners, Tahsildars, Shirastedars (revenue official at Tahsil level),
Revenue inspectors and Village Accountants help the Deputy Commissioner in the administration of
the district. Mysore city is the headquarters of the district. It lies on the north eastern part of the
district and is well known for its beautiful palaces and also for the festivities that take place
during Dasara.
Mysore District is subdivided into seven taluks whose 2001 Census populations are given below:

CHAPTER-1
EARTHQUAKE DISASTER
Introduction:
Earthquakes are rare events, rarer than floods and hurricanes but the impressions left on the
community even by a small tremor are long listing. While floods and droughts may extend over weeks or
even a season, earthquakes occur for a few seconds only. Advances in meteorology have made it possible
to issue a warning about hurricanes. However, precise prediction of earthquake occurrence has not been
so far possible. While broad regions prone for earthquakes can be identified, the time of the earthquake
remains completely uncertain. In this sense an earthquake can be appropriately called a shock.
Geology of Mysore District:
The major rock types in Mysore district is the white coloured, coarse grained rock type
generally termed as the Peninsular Gneiss containing minerals like quartz + plagioclase + K + feldspar +
biotite + hornblende + garnet (Fig 1).
The Sargur Group of rocks are the Oldest rocks exposed in the whole of India. People
from Mysore District may feel proud that they are living on these oldest Earth‘s crust in India.
The famous rock type exposed in the Chamundi Hills which is a pink porphyritic Granite is
youngest rock, with age of around 700 m.y.
All the rock types of Mysore district have been metamorphosed to upper amphibolite to
granulite facies conditions (with pressures of 6 to 7 Kb and Temperatures of 600 to 760oC).
Some of the recent Earthquakes around Mysore are as follows:
May 16, 1972 and November 1993 - Malavalli and Shivasamudra, 4.0 to 4.2 intensity
(Doddegowdanakoppal and BG Pura)
January 29, 2001 - Mild Earthquake near Mandya, 3.5 scale.
May, 17, 2007 - Mild tremors near Somwarpet, Kodagu Dt., 3.5 scale. Nidugane and
Hebbettageri of Madikeri town
For the above reasons, there is an URGENT need to establish an earthquake disaster
management committee headed by a Geologist with other members from the geophysicisists, structural
/ civil engineers, and administrators to tackle the problem related natural hazards. There is a need to
take preventive measures for ensuring safety of buildings, structures, communication facilities,
water supply lines, electricity and life by giving utmost priorities.
EARTHQUAKE DISASTER MITIGATION AND MANAGEMENT Earthquake hazard management can be done in THREE different stages as follows:
1. Earthquake disaster mitigation (pre-disaster)
2. Earthquake prediction and warning
3. Earthquake damage assessment (post-disaster)
1. EARTHQUAKE DISASTER MITIGATION: The earthquake disaster mitigation is needed to protect the common people against the
possible impact of future earthquake events. There is a need to move people from thickly
populated areas from zones of high seismic risk. The following information is needed for
earthquake mitigation:
a) Lithology and Structural Mapping in Mysore District:
Detailed description of different rock types, their structural history has to be recorded.
Identification of lineaments using remote sensing techniques has to be carried out.
b) Location of fault/shear zones and their mechanism of formation:
Identify active fault/shear zones in and around Mysore district because these are the areas
which are susceptible for sudden rupture and earthquakes.
c) Strain analyses of rock types:
There should be good record of seismic data of the area and hence there is need to establish
seismic recording stations in and around Mysore.
d) Seismic history
There should be good record of seismic data of the area and hence there is need to establish
Page 8 of 170
seismic recording stations in and around Mysore. e) Neo-tectonic study using LANDSAT
imageries
The recent tectonic movements of the area has to be documented and if possible the age of
such movements by FISSION tract study of apatite and zircons.
f) Demographics and infrastructure
Base map showing the location of settlements are needed. The recent map of Mysore city
with all the localities with population density, roads, railway lines, electric lines, telephone
lines, bridges, tanks, etc., has to be made available using GIS techniques.
This data is essential for any pre- or post earthquake event planning. There is a URGENT
need to prepare a data base map for Mysore district using GIS technique where data layers
including geology, seismic history, known high and low-strain areas, location of hospitals and relief
centers can be made available.
The above data base map is invaluable in providing rapid base information to the
administrative purpose and managing disaster logistics.
g) Preventive Measures and Preparedness for Earthquake Shocks; (pre-disaster)
Before earthquake what people should do (awareness).
Most of the problems related to earthquake results from falling of the objects and debris,
partial building collapse, ceiling plaster, light fixtures etc., related to ground movement during
earthquake.
Do not hang pictures and heavy objects over beds and beds should be located away from windows.
Responsibility of District Administration
Prepare earthquake catalogues/probable epicenter zones, geological and tectonic maps of the
district.
Identify seismic risk zones and move people from such zones.
Frame rules and regulations and implement the rules for construction of seismic prone
structures in the city or villages.
Have a list of earthquake engineers and architects to guide construction of earthquake proof
structures.
Identify the existing weak buildings in city/village (both public and private and
strengthen them.
Installation of seismological observation centers in the district.
Give public awareness in earthquake prone areas by conducting seminars, group discussion
etc., and prepare a booklet containing all the information and freely circulate to the people.
Government staff should be given training in earthquake disaster management and
preparedness.
Involvement of NGO’s in earthquake preparedness.
Inform all the public/private hospitals, school/colleges, office etc., about the earthquake
disaster and prepardness by putting posters etc.,
Establish an office for information on earthquake related disaster management and guidance
center in Mysore city.
2. EARTHQUAKE PREDICTIONS AND WARNING
It is difficult to predict an Earthquake. It is also a difficult question to answer to a
public who is interested to know about where and when an Earthquake takes place. Earthquakes
are like a sudden heart attack which takes place in a human being, causing
instantaneous death. However, Geologist and Geophysicists can work out Earthquake and identify
vulnerable areas where Earthquake may take place. Predictions about identifying Earthquakes
prone areas are possible now if we have a good amount of scieitific data and particularly seismic
data of the Mysore district.
Page 9 of 170
Following are some of the scientific measures to be taken to
predict earthquakes:
a) Foreshocks : A reliable prediction tool is measuring of foreshocks which usually
precede a large earthquake. There will be a record of minor earth tremors in the area,
before a major earthquake takes place.
b) Strain in Rocks : The relative movement of rocks along a weak zone line a fault plane /
shear zne can be recorded and general predictions about the rupture direction of the rock can
be predicted.
c) Chemical Changes in Groundwater : A raise in the amount of chlorine content in
groundwater as well as Radon content is observed in many wells.
d) Thermal Anomaly: A sudden rise in ground temperature in an areas will indicate the
occurrence of an earthquake in that region.
e) Groundwater Level Monitoring : A gradual to sudden lowering of groundwater levels in
the wells and then rising of water level in the wells will give an indication of earthquake in
that region. This has to be monitored for many observation wells in the Mysore district.
f) Change in P-wave Velocity : p-wave velocity decreases by 10 percent to 15 percent and
regains its normal velocity before major earthquake.
3. EARTHQUAKE DAMAGE ASSESSMENT AND ENVIRONMENTAL PLANNING (POST-
DISASTER):
Public Awareness
If earthquakes occur when people are outside, get away from walls and live wires. If driving
stay inside the vehicle.
Apply first aid to injuries to yourself and others. Inform police 100 / Fire 101/
Ambulance 102.
Check structural damages and clear all the blockages to main entrance of a building / house.
Check any fire in the house / building and extinguish fire. Check radio and phones and get the latest
information on earthquake
Responsibility of District Administration
Arrangements for evacuation of people from buildings / houses and giving them proper first
aid treatment.
Construction of temporary shelters like tents, metal sheets for the people in the district.
Information regarding cornering buildings / houses from further damage during after shocks. Take steps
to prevent any diceases.
Establishment of control rooms which are functional at the district/taluk/block level and keep
the address and telephone numbers of important administrators. Round the clock site control room has
to be planned.
Preparedness for the restoration of public transport, telecommunication and electricity after
the earthquake.
List of vehicles and other heavy vehicles available for use to remove debris etc. Arrangements
for periodic press release.
Arrangements of relief work upto few days to one month.
List of health officers at district and village level and their preparedness for help to the people
by storing drugs etc.,
Mitigation Stratigies to Build a Safe House/ Building and Demolish / Restore Old
buildings in Mysore District:
We do not have to worry too much in building a perfect house / building like the
Japanese build their house, because of their demand in building an Earthquake proof house,
particulary in Mysore District. However, the District administration and the public can take
note of some of the following suggestions while constructing a house, schools, colleges and
offices in the District.
Buildings should be constructed on a good concrete base.
No stones filled with mud be used for the basement
Page 10 of 170
No bricks filled with muds be used for walls
Buildings should be of simple, geometric design, avoiding L and D shapes.
Rectangular and square type buildings are most suitable.
Light roofing must be avoided.
Heavy roofing with cuddappa slabs on mud walls must be banned.
Fixing very heavy RCC water tanks on the top of the Building should be
avoided.
Many Government Buildings, particularly Old Schools/ Government offices, built by Mud
walls with lime mortar should be demolished.
The old City market area and buildings needs reconstruction with good
Engineering Earthquake resistant structures.
Slum dwellers should be minimum. Alternative arrangements has to be made for these
slum dwellers to build good houses. It is in these areas which are vulnerable and
loss of life will be more during Earthquake.

Climate of the district is moderate throughout the year. Monsoon starts from May and continues
up to October with maximum rainfall in the months of May, September and October.
The agriculture department is supporting the farmers of the district with four main objectives viz.
1. Transfer of Technology
2. Co-ordination for supply of Agricultural Inputs
3. Quatlity Control of Inputs
4. Implementation of State & Central Schemes to increase Agricultural Production.
5. Watershed activities – Soil and Water conservation measures
The department is well supported by District Agriculture Training Centre which has been set-up
in a spacious building with boarding and lodging facilities at Nagenahalli in kasaba hobli at Mysore taluk
and it is situated about 8 kms, away from the district headquarters.
The department is technically supported by a team of expert scintists from Organic Farming
Research Centre Nagenahalli and also from Zonal Agriculture Research station, VC Farm, Mandya.
There is also one well equipped Krishi Vigyan Kendra at Suttur in Nanjangud taluk.
The Western talukas of the district i,e., H.D.Kote, Hunsur, and Periyapatna comprise of hilly
tracts, the soil type being red and shallow. Nanjangud and T.Narasipura taluks consist of deep red loamy
soil with black patches here and there.
Though there are three cropping seasons in the district namely, Kharif, Rabi and summer,
Kharif is the pre-dominant season. The district is the earliest in the state in respect of Kharif sowing.
Kharif commenced in the month of May and extended upto end of September. In early Kharif crops
like Jowar, Sesamum, cotton, Maize, Pulses, Groundnut and Tobacco are grown. During mid kharif,
crops like Ragi, Groundnut, Niger, Castor and Paddy are grown. Rabi Jowar, Ragi, Sunflower,
Horsegram and Cowpea are the main rabi crops. Paddy, Ragi, Groundnut and Pulses are the main
summer crops.

Diseases for the Crops and Crop loss from floods due to heavy rains in some Taluks are major
disasters faced by the Department.,
The mitigation measures, prepared ness and management actions are described as below
1. PREVENTION AND RESPONSE STRATEGIES
All the measures required to be taken before disaster (anticipatory stage) during the
disaster (concurrent stage) and after disaster (post disaster stage) are incorporated into the
integrated contingency plan which clearly specify details of the mechanism of coordination,
monitoring and supervision of both prevention rescue and relief operation.
During drought, crop loss and shortage of food drinking water scarcity, water contamination
and scarcity of fodder are common problems. It is possible to assign areas for fodder banks where
fodder is grown as an insurance against drought at hobli level. Also forests cannot be seen as a
source of fodder. Already under pressure, forests need further protection during drought. In fact
many border areas witness man/animal conflict leading to loss of lives. In such places notifying areas
as fodder banks for wild life can reduce the risk and conflict.
Karnataka State Natural Disaster Monitoring Centre
This is an Autonomous Body, Registered under Society Registration Act, Affiliated toDepartment of
Science & Technology, Government of Karnataka
Karnataka State has the distinction of being first in the country to establish Drought Monitoring Cell
(DMC) in 1988 as an institutional mechanism to monitor the Drought.
Activities broadened to also include monitoring other natural disasters and renamed as Karnataka
State Natural Disaster Monitoring Centre (KSNDMC) in 2007.
KSNDMC has been serving as a common platform to the various response players in thefield of
natural disaster management by providing timely proactive science andtechnology inputs.
The Master Control Facility will strengthen the activities of the centre in providingin formation,
reports, advisories to the community, research organizations and the Government.

FLOODS:
OCCURANCE OF FLOODS
Mysore district is traversed by two major rivers Cauvery and Kabini and their tributaries like
Lakshmana Thirtha, Nugu and Taraka.
Most of the distances transverse by the two rivers are downstream of the respective drams viz.
Krishnarajanasagar for Kaveri and Beechanahalli for Kabini. Hence there is no occurrence of flash
floods. The releases of water from the reservoirs are predictable and adequate time is available for
cautioning the population along the course.
Length traversed by the rivers in the district.
Kaveri - 126.76 kms, Kaveri - 199 kms
Lakshmanathirtha - 56 kms, Nugu - 27 kms
DROUGHT
Mysore district receives an average annual precipitation for about 815.6m.m. the annual average
evaporation is about 1100 mm. Climatologically the district is close to being classified as a
semiarid region.
The major river valleys are irrigated by canal systems. About 1370 irrigation tanks in the Mysore and
Chamarajanagar region irrigate their command areas. Rest of the land is rainfed and dependent
on the monsoon.
Major causes of drought in the region
Failure of rains, Untimely rains in these causes result in
Drinking water scarcity, Scarcity of water and fodder for cattle
Failure of crops leading to food scarcity and loss of livelihood.
Loss of employment to landless labourers.
It is noticed that the following factors aggravate the problem of drought in the district
Loss of grazing land
Loss of forests and tree cover
Siltation of tanks
Over exploitation of groundwater
Increasing acarage of commercial crops

Blast particularly during cloudy weather. But Jyothi variety is not recommended by the Department.
Action that can be taken for predict, prevent and ventif the possible accurrence of Disaster.
Point of preparedness action :
A Surveillance team consisting of the concerned Taluk Asst. Director of Agricultrue, one ADA (SMS) in
the district, scientists (Agronomist, Entomologist, Pathologist) from the UAS (Organic Farming
Research Centre, Nagenahalli / V.C.Farm Mandya) has been constituted in the district. This team
conducts routine surveys covering all the taluks / villages. Farmers meetings are conducted at the
taluklevell, Wherein the farmers are thought about the control measures right in their field.
Besides farmers from all hoblies are being registered under K-Kissan programme wherein all the details
are incorporated. Arrangement has been made to send information to these registered farmers about the
urgent control measures to be taken up. Also the farmers are being given regular tips through All India
Rardio, in the ‗Raitharige Salahe Programme‘ being bradcast daily. Krishi darshan programme daily from
Dooradarshan is also serving the farming community.
Budget available in the department for the above. Based on the report given by the surveillance team, the district Joint Director of Agriculture submits a
proposal to the head office requesting grants for supply of recommended plant protection chemicals under
subsidy. These chemicals are stocked at RSKs and distributed to the farmers.

WATER AND CLIMATE DISORDER

1. PREVENTION AND RESPONSE STRATEGIES
All the measures required to be taken before disaster (anticipatory stage) during the disaster
(concurrent stage) and after disaster (post disaster stage) are incorporated into the integrated
contingency plan which clearly specify details of the mechanism of coordination, monitoring and
supervision of both prevention rescue and relief operation.
As the occurrence of floods is downstream of the reservoirs it is possible to reduce the impact of
floods on human and animal lives. It is possible to manage the magnitude of discharge from KRS to
avoid flooding of the ranganathittoo bird sanctuary during the breeding season of birds.
Flash floods due to cloud bursts and heavy rainfall cause considerable damage to life, property
and live stock in urban areas including blockage of drains. It is possible to take measures to reduce
the impact of floods apart from cleaning the drains preventing unconsolidated building debris
from falling into the drains and giving adequate passage (valley profile) for the flood water to
flow without causing extensive damage. Socially rehabilitation in temporary camps in sensitive
areas are appropriate.
During drought, crop loss and shortage of food drinking water scarcity, water contamination and
scarcity of fodder are common problems. It is possible to assign areas for fodder banks where
fodder is grown as an insurance against drought at hobli level. Also forests cannot be seen as a
source of fodder. Already under pressure, forests need further protection during drought. In fact
many border areas witness man/animal conflict leading to loss of lives. In such places notifying
areas as fodder banks for wild life can reduce the risk and conflict.
Decreasing levels in ground water table aggravates the drinking water problem during drought.
The best preventive strategy to address this problem is to follow is rain water harvesting.

The Beechanahalli dam across Kabini has maximum flood discharge records as follows:
1992 - 70,200 cusecs
Duration of the flood ranges from 8 to 12 hrs.
FLOOD WARNING SYSTEM:
Inflow in each river is recorded every hour and conveyed through wireless system. Flood
discharge warning is issued 72 hrs before the actual release.
The warning is broadcast through AIR, Doordarshan and Newspapers.
In the sensitive villages and areas along the bank warning is issued through loudspeaker or

CLOUD BURST
1. Isolated heavy cloud bursts can result in heavy precipitation leading to flood conditions.
¾ This could result in breaching of earthern bunds/dams resulting in floods down Stream
¾ Run off water could inundate low lying areas leading to submergence of properties and
unsanitary conditions.
2. The map indicates incidences of dam breaches leading to floods in earlier years
¾ Karimuddanahalli kere had breached in early 80s causing floods in the down stream
¾ Breach of tanks in the Hunsur, Lakshmana Tirtha River fed tank systems resulted in
flash floods in the valley which resulted in fatal accident near singamaranahalli
¾ Damburst has been reported at the hadajana pickup fed from chamundi Hill runoff.
¾ Breach of Shankaramalliana katte, H.D.Kote in the year 1999
¾ Breach of Haralahalli Lake, H.D.Kote in the year
Problem of flooding: Rise in the level of Hebballa stream terminating in Vadavina Katte tank
passing through Mysore and H.D.Kote taluks due to heavy rains in its catchment area could
disrupt couple of roads leading to villages. In such cases alternate roads have been indicated in
the map.
Flooding in Urban areas The Present population of Mysore is about 9 lakhs occupying an area of about 10,000 hectares.
The undulating terrain of Mysore has been divided into 5 drinage districts. With increasing urban
growth the quantum of rainwater run off is increasing making lowlying areas vulnerable to
flooding. Enclosed table gives the sensitive area, nature of problem and remedies. These are
indicated in the enclosed map.

5.4 DROUGHT
Mysore district receives an average annual precipitation for about 766.7 m.m. the annual average
evaporation is about 1100 mm. Climatologically the district is close to being classified as a
semiarid region.
The major river valleys are irrigated by canal systems. About 1370 irrigation tanks in the Mysore
and Chamarajanagar region irrigate their command areas. Rest of the land is rainfed and
dependent on the monsoon.
Major causes of drought in the region
• Failure of rains, Untimely rains in these causes result in
• Drinking water scarcity, Scarcity of water and fodder for cattle
• Failure of crops leading to food scarcity and loss of livelihood.
• Loss of employment to landless labourers.
It is noticed that the following factors aggravate the problem of drought in the district
• Loss of grating land
• Loss of forests and tree cover
• Siltation of tanks
• Over exploitation of groundwater
• Increasing acarage of commercial crops
1.2 Mitigatory measures Rapid deployment of team to provide alternate drinking water sources or tankers in critical areas
Setting up food and fodder banks. Availability of seeds for alternate sowing Changing cropping
pattern (food and fodder) and restricting the acarage of commercial crops Employment generation
activity with emphasis on watershed development and treeplanting Emergency measures
Page 31 of 170
If the drought is severe establishment of rehabilitation camps and community kitchens will be
necessary. Ideal places are schools and anganawadi centres in the region. Provision of drinking
water and sanitation for the camps is essential.
Water tanks to critical areas from the nearest source at the earliest. Establishement of fodder banks for
the cattle Establishment of health services and prevention of epidemics.
Resources Available: Map showing drought prone areas/ reserve forests and maximum
fluctuations in ground water levels (Map no.2)
Map showing percentage of ground water utilization (Map no.3) Borewell rigs
Forest resources, Police, Fire Medical facilities, water tankers, Communication
Forest resources: As forests are very important ecosystems and their conservation is of prime
importance. This will not be available for grazing or cutting. Adjacent areas need to be developed
as fodder banks for the cattle and in some places for the wild life.

BIOLOGICAL DISASTER
MANAGEMENT PLAN
INTRODUCTION
Introduction:
Disaster refers to a serious disruption of the functioning of a society, causing widespread
human/animal, material, or environmental loss, which exceeds the ability of the affected society to
cope using its own resources. To put it in other words, it is the occurrence of a sudden
mishap/calamity/ grave occurrence that disrupts the basic fabric and normal functioning of a society
(or community)
Types of Disasters:
Natural: Earthquake, Flood, Heavy Rain, Cyclone, Drought, Landslides, Forest Fire, Avalanches,
Pest Infestation, Hailstorms, & Heat wave.
Man made:
Road Accident, Rasta Roka, Communal Violence, Hartals, Riots, Pollution, Chemical, &
Railway accidents.
It is hoped that the district level officers who are in charge of different departments will
carefully go through the District Biological Disaster Management Plan [DBDMP] and remain alert to
emergent situations that may arise in the course of the year.
Plans are useful and work only they are updated and practice through intensive mock
exercises and simulations. As team leader district administration bear an enormous responsibility of
ensuring that teams are well trained and aware of their rolls during crisis. Mock drills and exercises
go a long way in this task. They also serve to fine tune response and remain alert with ground
situations. It is a great pleasure to release this biological disaster management plan prepared by the
subcommittee.
It is expected that DBDMP would prove very useful to the district administration to respond
more effectively to reduce the loss of life and loss of property during disasters. The standard
operating procedures for various field departments, checklists and formats for reporting will go a long
way in improving the effectiveness of the district level response.
Disaster impact is felt by increasing number of population in a country with large population
density. Impact on the human population in the post disaster period is manifested in the form of
injuries, deaths, diseases and disability. They also affect the services essential for human survival,
shelter, water supply, food stock/ food distribution system, sanitation and sewerage facilities. Time is
an important factor in mobilizing resources and administrative machinery to meet immediate public
health needs of affected population.
DEFINITION: ―Biological disaster‖ is one of the technological disasters caused by micro organisms
leading to spread of disease by pathogenic organisms or toxins". With advancement in technology
genetic engineering possibility of release of causative agents in the environment may create a crisis
situation which may not be possible to be handled by the affected population. Such possibilities could
be accidental or otherwise.
BIOLOGICAL THREATS:
Biological agents are organisms or toxins that can kill or incapacitate people, livestock, and
crops. The three basic groups of biological agents that would likely be used as weapons are bacteria,
viruses, and toxins. Most biological agents are difficult to grow and maintain, many break down
quickly when exposed to sunlight and other environmental factors, while others, such as anthrax
Page 33 of 170
spores, and are very long lived. Biological agents can be dispersed by spraying them into the air, by
infecting animals that carry the disease to humans and by contaminating food and water.
Delivery methods include:
Aerosols - biological agents are dispersed into the air, forming a fine mist that may drift for miles.
Inhaling the agent may cause disease in people or animals.
Animals - some diseases are spread by insects and animals, such as fleas, mice, flies, mosquitoes, and
livestock.
Food and water contamination - some pathogenic organisms and toxins may persist in food and
water suppliers. Most microbes can be killed, and toxins deactivated, by cooking food and boiling
water. Most microbes are killed by boiling water for one minute, but some require longer.
Person-to-person- spread of a few infectious agents is also possible. Humans have been the source of
infection for smallpox, plague, and the Lassa viruses.
Management of the biological disasters includes forewarning system, precautionary /preventive
measures and effective management of the disasters in time bound manner.
The strategies to manage any such biological disaster comprise of the following essential steps.
1. Creating awareness among the affected groups/public
2. Immediate preventive steps.
3. Control measures
4. Rehabilitation measures
5. Recovery measures to be taken.
1. All the stake holders involved both affected and management machinery needs to be given
enough understanding about the nature of disaster, occurrence spread and management aspects.
The major disasters likely to occur are as follows:-
1. For human beings
2. For live stock
3. For crops
4. For Fauna
5. For Flora

CHAPTER-4
ANIMAL HUSBANDRY AND VETERNARY SERVICES
Contribution of animal husbandary to the GDP has increased to a new height and so also the
importance of the domestic animals. To combat the nutritional defficiency and to meet out the food
requirement of the raising population Agriculture and the Animal husbandry are the only two fields
which we can look for. In order to produce sufficient quantity of protein rich food, the potential of the
domestic animals were optimally exploited by adopting many programmes namely Intensive cattle
breeding programme, cross breeding programme, operation Flood I, II & III etc. Thus now we have
achieved 159.00 tonnes of milk and 2378 tonnes meat and some worthy byproducts production in the
district.
In the course of achieving our goal we paid some penalties, such as emergence of new
diseases, lowering of the disease resistance status, extinction of our native breeds. Moreover most of
the emerged diseases were of zoonatic importance which cause considerable threat to human
population also. Thanks for the advancement of technical knowledge and technological
sophistication. Now the above diseases or hazards can be effectively tackled by proper planning and
application of the method that are available.
In this regard pre outbreak preparedness is very important that is disease monitoring and
surviellance aspects expecially in rural areas and hilly & forest tracks specialy for reasons of poor
economy of the farmers, communication and transport difficulties and some time lack of adequate
supply of vaccines and medicines in time. Having identified the ―Alert Zone ‖ the people in that
region must be taught some basics to handle the situations with the help of the Department people
(Task force). Action plan for Avian influenza with complete RRTs and other information is prepared
and kept ready in the office.
OTHERS POINT TO BE PONDERED
The Livestock quickly transmits contagious, viral, bacterial and other infectious diseases.
Hence it is of utmost importance that the owners of the livestock are made aware of the
symptoms of such diseases and persuaded to report an outbreak at first incidence to the
nearest veterinary hospital
District administration should create more check posts at convenient points to carefully and
effectively check the movement of animals
District administration should be vigilant and should take preventive actions in advance on
the basis of earlier epidemics. To have an effective sensory arm to animal health programme,
disease monitoring and Surveillance wing of the department should be strengthned.
If any disease occurs in an area, the message is to be passed on immediately to the
neighboring districts, if necessary to neighboring state also to take preventive measures.
Cold storage chain to store vaccine to be maintained without break
Animal Insurance Programmes should be implemented effectively
The Distaster due to famine should also be kept in mind. Necessary steps should be taken to
combat the shortage of fodder for the animals and at the same time emergence of some of the
diseases due to malnutrition

Department of Sericulture
Sericulture is practiced as a rural occupation since 2nd
century B.C. in the country. The Silk and
Silk products are intermingled with the country‘s culture and civilization.
Silk industry provides employment to 7.9 million people in the country. The labour force
participation Rate(LTPR) in Silk industry is highest in comparision to any other occupation in the
country and in the State. The contribution of women is about 54% and rural population about 90%
Thus, the industry plays a major role in women empowerment and distribution of equality from rich to
poor. (Source Indian Silk 2015)
Sericulture is in practice in Mysore Dist., for the past two centuries. over 3000 hectares of
cultivable land and 570 Villages are used for sericulture. There are about 16 Technical Service centers
functioning in the district serving the needs of Seri culturists.
The major constraint in practice of sericulture is the diseases and pests of mulberry and Silk
worm.
some of the Silkworm diseases are musuardine, uzi infestation, graserie and flacherie pebrine,
some of the mulberry diseases are soil borne and foliar diseases. But there has been timely
Page 58 of 170
intervension of state department of sericulture and central sericultural Research and Training Institute
of Mysore. List of diseases and preventive measure are listed in tables.
DISASTER MANAGEMENT:
The threat of any disaster may be addressed by timely and coordinated effort supervised by a
sericulture disaster management cell. As there is no disaster management cell, the
constitution of a sericulture disaster management cell could go long way to prevent any disaster.
A district level sericulture disaster management cell may be constituted at CSRTI, Mysore with
Director, CSRTI, Mysore as coordinator and Joint Director of sericulture, Mysore district,
Mysore as Joint coordinator. The team may consist of subject experts in the field of mulberry
diseases, mulberry and silkworm pests and the silkworm diseases. The experts are head of the
sections in the respective field from CSRTI, Mysore. The cell depends on entirely on field
functionaries for the timely and accurate information. As such all the district in charge officers,
taluk and officers in charge of all the Technical service centers (TSCs) in Mysore district will be the
functionaries of the committee. They are vested with the responsibility of reporting the outbreak of
disease and pests from their area and forward the samples to the coordinator. They should conduct a
survey and report the result within 3 -4 days from the date of first information to the coordinator and
the joint Coordinator of the cell. The experts would examine the sample, analyze the report and
specifically recommend the action and action plan. The joint coordinator would arrange all the
requirement and advice the field functionaries to implement the recommended action plan
immediately. Scientists from the CSRTI, Mysore would join the field functionaries to prevent the
disaster. The impact of the implementation would be monitored for sufficiently longer period to
ensure elimination of threat.
PROPOSED MEMBERS OF THE CELL:
Co-ordinator: Director, CSRTI, Mysore
Joint Co-ordinator, Joint Director of Sericulture, DOS, Mysore District
Experts: Scientist D, Mulberry Pathology Laboratory, CSRTI. Mysore
Scientist D, Pest management laboratory, CSRTI. Mysore Scientist D, Silkworm Pathology Laboratory,
CSRTI. Mysore
Members : Deputy Director of sericulture, DOS., Mysore district, Mysore Assistant Director(s) of
Sericulture, DOS, Mysore district. Sericulture Extension Officers, DOS, of respective TSCs
NETWORKING:
Information networking is very vital in disaster management. Action should be taken immediately
as soon as the news reaches to the village level officer. The information of impending disaster,
precautions and management practices should be broadcasted over public address system by the
Disaster Management Cell (Sericulture) at Village, Taluk and district level. The information should
also be broadcast over AIR and Television for the benefit of affected villages, its neighborhood
villages, taluks, and districts. The warning should also be passed through handouts, local news papers
and Interactive Voice Response System (IVRS). The coordinator of the cell may decide one spokes
person who is eligibletogive a public statement. Awareness camps at farmers‘ levels also be
conducted for timely disaster Management.

FISHERIES
Introduction:
Mysore District has a rich water resources covering over 17600 hectares of lentic water
resources comprising of 3 reservoirs covering 8585 hectares, 99 departmental major tanks and 979
small Grama Panchayat tanks (<40 ha achkat)covering about 4837 hectares besides 247 Kilometres of
rivers and canals, The fish production is estimated at 8517 metric tonnes during 2014-15. The present
yield can be increased by 4 times.
The total fishermen population of the District is estimated as 12000
The river cauvery & its tributaries constitute the major river system of the district,. Since
historical time the water resources are used for agriculture, fisheries, irrigation & electricity, In recent
year‘s number of new barriages, weirs dams (anikats) have been constructed across the river. The
water content, quality has changed on passage of time, Innumerable factories, workshops, human
habitation, new township have sprung up along the river bank discharging their effluents and waste
into these thereby polluting these waters & the quality of water have remarkably changed resulting in
decline of fisheries resources & fish species.
Rain water is the main source of water for the tanks and reservoirs in the district during
monsoon, having an average rainfall of 800 mm. A few tanks have been linked to reservoir through
canals.
The main objective of the Department of Fisheries is to utilize the natural resources to
maximize fish production and over all development of fisher folk by implementing various
Department schemes. The department imparts technical guidence and creates awareness among fish
folk in improved method of fishing and fish culture.
The Department also provides support to fishermen if they get injured (handicapped) or die
during fisheries activity Rs.50000 as death compensation and Rs. 25000 for handicapped fishermen
through centrally sponsored scheme
In order to boost Inland Fish production & to meet the growing demand, more stress on the
culture of fast growing Indian carps like Catla catla labeo rohita & Cirrhinus Mrigala and exotic fishes
such as cyprinus carpio, Hypophthatmichtys molitiric (Silver carp) and ctenopharyngodan
idella(Grass carp)is undertaken. These introduced fish species have adapted well in the various types
of water bodies. The introduction of cyprinus carpio(common carp) and inadvertently entered
oreochorinis mossambica (Tilapia) have dominated as they breed and multiply fast in a short span of
time. These fishes have resulted in the decline of indigenous fish population comprising of labeo,
cirinus, puntius, cat fish, murrels etc. The culture of African cat fish clarius gariepinus by private
entrepreneurs in recent years may further aggravate and damage the entire picture of indigenous fish
fauna and also effect the natural ecosystem in the water. Hence the production, culture and marketing
of African cat fish is completely banned in order to encourage culturable varieties.
Fisheries crisis:
Fresh water is the most critical items of human need & the most polluted environment, Fresh
water species are emerging as the most threatened living organisms.
Sporadic incidence of mortality of fish is also reported in various parts of Karnataka, either
due to sewage pollution or due to pollution of industrial effluents The fish mortality and fish wealth
may get damage due to natural calamities like bund damage at tanks & flood condition at river stretch.
Early nineties have witnessed the occurrence of ulcerative syndrome disease in fish, popularly
called as ‗‘ Fish pox’’ or `` Fish leprosy‘‘ had created panic among the people of Karnataka
especially in Mysore & Mandya Dist. It was noticed in the fishes of rivers, tanks and reservoirs
immediately after heavy rain fall or floods. Even though, attempt was made to cure the disease by
medicine improvement of water quality in subsequent months controlled the disease.
Page 73 of 170
In recent years (May 2001)fish mortality was reported from Yennehole tank, the sewage fed
irrigation tank of 100 ha. which is about 16 Km from Mysore city. The loss was estimated to be 60
tonnes valuing about Rs.0.50 crores. Technical reports stated that fishes died due to respiratory
distress and lack of oxygen because of entry of large quantity of sewage and finely suspended solids
into the tank during heavy rains on 5th & 6
th May 2001. Minor case of fish mortality was reported on
21.9.2006 at Lingambudi tank which is in the green belt of Mysore city. On enquiry the mortality was
caused due to inflow of sewage after heavy rains.
During (July 2011) fish mortality was reported from Heballa tank, Irrigation small tank of 8
ha . The mortality was caused due to breakage of sewage pipe line in-terms depletion of dissolved
oxygen.
Mitigation activities Undertaken for Fish Mortality crisis/disaster Management
1. Pollution. The crises of fish mortality occurs only when the quality of water changes beyond the capacity
of fish to adjust & adopt to new environment.
The disaster due to sewage, domestic & factory effluent and accumulated debris or silt has to be
eliminated through periodic checks & cleaning to eliminate and dilute the existing toxic effects,.
Fresh water may be added along with action against the polluter.
2. Dissolved oxygen Atmospheric temperature, pressure, water conditions such as gradient depth, velocity, oxygen
demand by other organisms in the media and precipitation are some of the factors influencing
dissolved oxygen levels. The level of dissolved oxygen can be increased by supply of oxygen
rich water by aeration technique or shifting of fishes to safer places or harvesting the fishes can
also overcome the disaster.
3. Diseases: Fish mortality due to disease is rare. Timely diagnosing and treatment by consulting the experts
can be tried. Prevention is better than cure. So water quality is to be ensured to prevent diseases.
The Department is fully equipped with the manpower and budget for managing the event of
disasters. The following officers may be contacted in the event of any disasters.

Forest Department
Disaster Management Plan” Of Mysore Territorial Division:
Man Animal Conflict –Issues.
Mysore territorial division is surrounded by Bandipur National Park, Nagarahole National
Park, Arabhithittu wild life sanctuary and Nugu wild life sanctuary having varied flora and fauna.
Chamundi State forest and Chikkanahalli block I and II (Madhalli afforestation center) also harbour
varied fauna like panthers, wild boars, porcupines etc. The crops in the adjacent areas of these
national parks and sanctuaries are subjected to Elephant damage. Hence preventive measures like
digging of elephant proof trenches, Solar fence and establishment of Anti depredation squads have to
be taken up to reduce the man-animal conflict.
Sollepura (Sollepura reserve forest) lies in H.D. Kote forest range and is adjacent to
Nagarahole National park Being adjacent to Nagarahole one can expect high degree of wildlife
movement. Forest has mixed vegetation type from scrub to bamboo forests to dry deciduous forests,
and has quite a number of deciduous species of trees all around. As we scale down to the fringes of
the forest it is completely open scrub and the vegetation growth is not more than 4 ft high except for
some sporadic deciduous trees, this may be due to high anthropogenic disturbances. It was observed
during our study period that most of the bamboos (Bambusa arundinacea) had flowered and many bird
parties were feeding on bamboo seeds.
It is mainly with elephants and rarely with tigers, leopards & other ungulates like gaur etc.,
The old tigers may take shelter near the fringes and stray into villages in search of easy prey.
They may be driven out from their territory by dominant young animals.
Crop depredation by elephants, wild boars & gaurs etc.,
This generates animosity towards wildlife
Page 76 of 170
The reasons for this is
Shrinking natural habitat of these animals-also fallow lands
Encroachment of humans on to their space, has caused these animals to encroach human
space(cattle grazing, tourism, religious places, Resorts, Land use changes)
Since wild animals are instinctive and cannot be controlled, it is the duty of the humans to
respect the space of these animals & not to encroach or invade their land
Habitat needs to be protected from degradation & loss. Then allow to regenerate & This will
take time
Habitat fragmentation is leading to isolation of animals, inbreeding and causing local
extinction of such species.
If Wildlife are restricted in their movements & in their sociology (mating pattern & territory)
it will lead to inbreeding, further weakening of genetic pool.

2. Fire protection:
Most of the reserved forests of Mysore division are covered extensively with plantations of fast
growing species. In areas where the lands are degraded and canopy density is less than 0.25, shrubs
and lantana predominate leaving very little room for regeneration and growth of miscellaneous
species. Lantana and other local grasses form a definite source of fire during summer when these dry
up. As a result, the forests become very prone to fire. In younger plantations, if fire control measures
are not taken timely extensive damage is caused to the plantations. Repeated fires in the forests not
only cause damage to the small trees and regeneration but deplete the soil, which is already in a
moisture-stress state, of the available moisture. The Chamundi state forest and Chikkanahalli blocks I
and II (Madhalli afforestation center) are extremely susceptible to fire damages. Here besides the
growth of grass the terrain also makes the area very vulnerable to fire. The slopes in the Chamundi
State forest and Chikkanahalli blocks I and II get affected by ground fire.
In view of this it is necessary to take up re-clearing and fire tracing operations along the D lines
and other fire lines well in time.

INTRODUCTION
1. FIRE ACCIDENTS.
A. Urban fires: This is a man made disaster. Urban fire is usually caused by Electrical faults,
human carelessness, lack of supervision of naked flame or uncontrolled production of a chemical or
physical reaction arson etc.
The spread of fire in Urban area depends on the structure and materials used for construction of
buildings, their volumes and partitions or spacing. Fire hazards can be in investigated in terms of all
phases, producing information on why where and when fires or likely to breakout, how they are
likely to develop and spread and with what degree of rapidity, this is likely to occur. Fire fighting
plans must be based on this sort of knowledge and prediction.
B.Village fires: Most of the village fires occur in the summer season and are composed by wind and
density of living. Villages are fire prone due to the spread of bio-wastes/Dry thatching materials
etc,. Burning wood, open cooking burning kerosene/oil lamps etc., are the causes for village fires.
Non-availability of water and sand is a problem during village fires.
C. Forest fires: In Mysore District, H.D.Kote. Nanjangud, Hunsur and Periyapatana taluk have forest
areas. Forest fires are mainly caused due to careless throwing of cigarette butts by people in the
Forests. The Forest Department is having its own plan to tackle forest fires. Hence the subject is not
discussed. Local communities are to be involved in forest fire detection and prevention.
D. Electrical fires: Electricity is a necessity in our lives, but it should be used carefully to avoid
accidents and fires usually occur due to short circuit.
Mitigation Plan : The objective of Fire prevention and Control Programs in Urban areas is to minimize
fire accidents and loss of the human life and property due to fire accidents:-
1. To plan and construct low hazard buildings with non- combustible materials.
2. To provide fire control and suppression equipment where ever needed with First-Aid materials.
3. To maintain the Equipment in readiness.
4. To educate and train employees in loss prevention and proper action in emergencies.
5. Fire order publication in all the fire accident prone establishment and to ensure that it is properly
implemented.
6. Establishment of Industrial Fire Brigades with modern appliances / equipment / fire
professionals.
7. Mutual fire aid programme.
Response Plan for Fire accidents:-

Accidents due to oil spills will be a very rare occurrence due to the absence of oil rigs in the
district. However, the Mysore district has got oil storage facilities by Indian Oil and Bharat
Petroleum of about 21000 Kilo liters and 7500 Kilo liters respectively. Also, accidents due to
tanker operations on road could occur.
1. The residents in the area have to educate on the impounding risk and how to react when
any contingency arises.
2. Oil has to be removed with separator land to be pumped out and stored.
3. If it is in land the land is to be filled with soil.
6. BOAT CAPSIZING.
Ferrying is almost unheard of in the rivers and lakes in mysore district. however, small country
boats operated by fishermen are found in the low current areas of rivers and some of lakes.
Accidents occurring in such operations will be of low magnitude. further, tourist spots offer
boating to the tourists in row boats, pedal boats, and motor boats. it is in these areas that the
district administration should puts its efforts. once again, the magnitude of the accidents is small and
its occurrence rare. it would be better to enforce strict regulations in such areas, which would reduce
the need for an concentrated effort for subsequent relief operations.

Building collapse and consequent loss of lives has become common in the Urban areas. Due to high
demand and legal battles the occupants refuse to vacate for fear of not getting it back and continue
to live in unsafe buildings. Poor quality construction also aggravates the cause of building collapse.
Natural calamities, such as Earth Quake; Cyclone and flood could also be contribution factors for
building collapse. The Town planning and development authorities should technically ascertain the
factor of safety of old buildings.

PREAMBLE, OBJECTIVE, EXTENT AND SCOPE OF THE PLAN
PREAMBLE
Rapid industrialization following the free market economy and global family concept has
enlarged the scope of human resources management closely followed by material management.
With the recent upward trend in industrial activity, the industrial safety, disposal of waste and
protection of health and environment has drawn national attention. Safe measures can only be adopted
after understanding the dangers of such hazardous materials, which have complex chemical
compositions. This can probably be accomplished through stringent regulations, perfect technology
transfer and more importantly by educating people and eliciting their wholehearted involvement and
co-operation.
In pursuant of prosperity by the industries, the nation has also witnessed just not accidents but
also disasters, due to inadequate safety precautions and lack of public awareness. On this backdrop, ―
the Environmental Protection Act, 1986‖ passed by the Government of India, has been in the
forefront, insisting on the various protective measures to be taken by the industrial establishment
handling hazardous materials. The perpetual review of the legislation has resulted in the formulation
of a series of related rules such as:
2. Environmental (protection) Rules, 1986
3. The Manufacture, Storage and Import of Hazardous Chemical Rules, 1989.
4. The Hazardous Waste (Management and Handling) Rules. 1989
5. The Chemical Accidents (Emergency Planning, Preparedness and Response, 1996.
6. Amended Central Motor Vehicle Rules, 1989 for transportation of hazardous chemicals by
road.
7. Public Liability Insurance Act, 1991.
These legislations alone cannot fulfill the objectives but need complete co-operation and
involvement of industry, district administration and the public. It is equally important that the
emergency plan is drafted and kept ready for full preparedness to handle any eventualities. The
legislation also provides for the constitution of various crisis management groups at central. State and
district levels involving various agencies right from the state of preparing and implementing off-site
emergency plans.
It is in this context, that the local administration has taken the initiative in drafting a
comprehensive Off-Site Emergency Plan to manage industrial and chemical disasters besides taking
preventive measures to protect the flora and fauna. With the increase in number of industries and
extensive use of hazardous chemicals there exists a need to revise the existing off site emergency plan
to meet the objective.
2.1 OBJECTIVE
1. Minimize and contain the severity of emergency.
2. Project the habitation in and around the plant against exposure to fire, explosion, toxic release
of poisonous gas etc.
3. Provide alternate safe shelter and adequate rehabilitation to the evacuees
4. Ensure subsistence of the evacuees till the termination of emergency.
5. Protect and safeguard the property and belongings of the evacuees
6. Award adequate compensation to the affected and to their families.
EXTENT AND SCOPE OF THE PLAN:
The off-site emergency plan is applicable to the whole district of Mysuru, which comprise of the
following taluks wherein Major Accident Hazard Units and Potentially hazardous industries are
located.
1. Mysuru
2. Nanjangud
Page 103 of 170
The scope of the plan is to mobilize all the resources through its chairman and members to oversee the
effective implementation in achieving its objective. In addition to this, it will also assist the local

OFF SITE EMERGENCY PLAN
The preparation of Off Site Emergency Plan is to classify and quantify the hazardous
chemicals stored, used, manufactured or imported in any industrial activity, asses the hazard interalia
plan for mitigation in the event of any emergencies. The guidelines formulated under the Chemical
Accidents (Emergency Planning, Preparedness and Response) Rules 1996 are considered as basic
inputs in preparation of this plan.
Page 104 of 170
The Off Site Emergency Plan is always drawn up for maximum credible accident scenario of a major
accident or a disaster.
The definition of major accident or a disaster is reproduced below for an easy and quick
understanding.
DEFINITION
MAJOR ACCIDENT OR DISASTER: An occurrence of such magnitude as to create a situation in
which the normal pattern of life within industrial complex suddenly disrupted affecting the
neighborhood seriously with the result that the people are plunged in the helplessness and suffering.
They may need food, shelter, water, medical attention, clothing, protection, counseling, information,
transportation, rehabilitation, sustainability, etc. It may cause serious bodily injury or loss of life; it
may also cause extensive damage to property.
MYSURU DISTRICT
The district administration has identified 77 industries as hazardous industries in the district
of Mysuru. Out of these, 8 industries are classified as Major Accident Hazard Units and other 8 as
potentially hazardous, the details of which are furnished in the foregoing chapters.
The complete study of chemicals stored, used, transported and manufactured in the industrial
establishments noted in chapter 4 reveals that the hazards associated with the chemicals can be
broadly classified into three categories viz., fire, explosion and toxic gas release.
Consequently the disasters could be:
A) FIRE B) EXPLOSION C) TOXIC GAS RELEASE
SCENARIO OF DISASTERS
DIFFERENT PHASES OF DISASTERS:
a) Warning phase
b) Period of impact
c) Rescue phase
d) Relief phase
e) Rehabilitation phase
CATAGORIES OF DISASTERS
CATEGORY – 1: LESS SEVERE
The hazard would not result in any serious injuries to the personnel, would not result in
property damage, illness amongst the personnel, injuries to live stock and no impact on environment.
More so the incident can be controlled by the organization itself or by seeking the assistance of
mutual aid partners.
CATEGORY –2: SEVERE
The hazard would cause injuries and illness to personnel and livestock, result in property
damage, will have some kind of effect on environment. The incident cannot be brought under control
by the organization itself. The support and assistance of mutual partners is required.
CATEGORY – 3: CRITICAL
The hazard would cause serious injuries to personnel, livestock, damage of property and
equipment will have serious effect on environment and eco-system, result and public commotion.
Once again the situation cannot be brought under control by the organization itself. Needs support not
only from the mutual aid partners but from out side agencies like the fire brigade, police,
environmental agencies and other related departments.
CATEGORY –4: CATASTROPHIC
The hazard would cause large-scale deaths to personnel and livestock, wide spread illness,
destruction of property and equipment, loss of facilities, severe effect on environment and eco-system.
Results in public chaos, long-term effect on both mankind and environment. Needs evacuation,
rehabilitation of both personnel and livestock. Uncontrollable situation needs intervention of district
administration.

Name of the Chemical : LPG
Storage : 750 MT (5 nos Bullets of 150 MT Each)
Type of Storage : 5 Bullets above Ground
State : Liquid
Hazard Involved : Fire / Explosion
RISK ASSESSMENT
The risks are BLEVE / UVCE. The risk analysis was carried out by M/s M/s See-Tech, Nagpur. The
analysis is based on probable worst case of fire and explosion that could occur in different areas of the
plant. The worst scenario (BLEVE) boiling liquid expanding vapour explosion) envisaged is the
catastrophic failure of LPG Bullets resulting in sudden loss of containment. It is due to ejection of
flashes and atomized immediately, often resulting in fire ball. Its effects are most devastating due to
flame contract and thermal radiation. The maximum radiation level of 35, 5 kW/Sq.m may extend to
distance of 292 meters. The lowest radiation level is 4 kW/Sq.m and may extend to 886 meters.

Stored Type Of Storage State Hazard Involved
1. LPG 95 MT Bullets - 5nos. Liquid Fire & Explosion
RISK ASSESSMENT
LPG is a highly inflammable and super heated liquid stored inside bullet and in case of pressure
crossing the designed pressure of the bullet, a chain reaction takes place, which may cause the
catastrophic failure of the vessels and in turn formation of fire balls. This characteristic is called
―BLEVE‖ and this failure of the vessel may cause damage to human life by producing heat radiation.
Instant Catastrophic failure of LPG vessels leads to BLEVE and leakage of LPG either from safety
valve or pipeline leads to vapour cloud explosion.

Type of Storage : Mounded storage
State : Liquid
Hazard Involved : Fire / Explosion
RISK ASSESSMENT
The risks are BLEVE / UVCE. The Quantitative risk analysis was carried out by M/s J.P. Rao
Associates, Hyderabad. The analysis is based on probable worst case of fire and explosion that could
occur in different areas of the plant. The worst scenario (BLEVE) boiling liquid expanding vapour
explosion) envisaged is the catastrophic failure of LPG Bullets resulting in sudden loss of
containment. It is due to ejection of flashes and atomized immediately, often resulting in fire ball. Its
effects are most devastating due to flame contract and thermal radiation. The maximum radiation level
of 37.5 kW/Sq.m. The lowest radiation level is 4 kW/Sq.m .

FIRE PREVENTION SYSTEM
The gas leak detection, fire prevention and control system to be implemented at Mysuru LPG Bottling
Plant will be the latest and will comply with the norms prescribed under OISD 144 and OISD 150.
The following are the systems which will be provided at Mysuru Bottling Plant :-
GAS MONITORING SYSTEM: The system consists of gas detecting sensors linked to a
computerized processing unit and with alarm panels at control room, filing shed, plant manager‘s
cabin as well as security gate having audio / visual alarms to alert the plant personnel. The sensors
are located at sensitive or potential hazard areas in the plant.
AIR/VAPOUR EXTRACTION SYSTEM: It is a blower with ducts extended to different operating
points in filling shed. The blower extracts any leaking LPG vapours from the floor level and cold
flares the same to the free atmosphere. This system is interlocked with filling system, such that the
blower has to be started before the carousel is started for filling operation. A standby blower is also
given to meet situations where one of the blower is out of order. In this way there is no accumulation
of LPG at plant floor level and any minor leaks due to operating operation is immediately evacuated
and not allowed to reach the lower explosive limit.
REMOTE CONTROL VALVES: These are pneumatically operated quick shut off valves provided
on LPG pipelines with actuating points located remotely and nearer to operating facilities in plant.
When actuated, the valves will close within 25 seconds, stopping the flow of LPG in pipelines. In
case of leakage of LPG through flange joint or rupture of pipeline, the remote operated valves are
operated restricting the leakage of LPG to the sections between two ROVs only and the LPG in
unstream area and the storage bullet area is cut off from the leaking point, thereby preventing major
leakage or fire.
EMERGENCY TRIP BUTTONS & MANUAL CALL POINTS: These emergency push buttons are
provided at strategic places in the plant. In case of emergency, when the emergency trip button is
actuated action takes place as specified in the clause 11.11 of OISD 144 which involves tripping of
electricity to all the operating equipment in the hazardous area of the plant, closure of all remote
operated valves on the LPG pipelines and sounding of siren. Operation of manual call point will
denote a abnormal situation alerting the plant personnel and will involve the sounding of siren only.
These points are provided at strategic locations in the plant.
Page 127 of 170
MEDIUM VELOCITY SPRAY SYSTEM : This sprinkle system is provided in the operating areas of
hazardous areas of plant like al sheds involving filling, storage and operation on cylinders, tank lorry
decantation shed, expose flanges of mounded storage, LPG pump house, etc., as per the specifications
given in OISD 144 / 150.
Adequate storage of fire water in exclusive above ground tanks is maintained as per the fire water
calculation. There is a fire water pipeline system which is constantly kept pressurized with a
minimum of 7 kg per centimeter square using jockey pumps which start and stop automatically at
preset pressures. The fire water pipeline is connected to the MV spray system through deluge walls
where an air water balance is maintained. The MV Spray system is equipped with a quartzoid bulb
fire detection system. When the temperature reaches 79º C the bulb will be burst releasing the air
water balance at the deluge valve and thereby starting the sprinkling of water. This will reduce the
pressure in the pipeline which will start the fire water pumps. Thus the entire system of fire
protection is automatic.
MUTUAL AID - Mutual Aid agreement will be made with other oil sector units in and around
Mysuru and also larger units in the Kadakola Industrial Area, Mysuru.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS STORED /
processed
The Hazardous materials stored in the premises are detailed below:
1. Chlorine - 9 MT
2. Alum - 2 to 5 MT
3. Bleaching powder - 2 MT
Page 140 of 170
Risk assessment and types of risks
Among the three chemicals, chlorine is considered to be highly hazardous. It is highly toxic and
corrosive. The materials safety data sheet of chlorine is enclosed at Annexure-13
HEALTH HAZARD
Chlorine is corrosive. It reacts with body moisture to form corrosive acids. Inhalation of chlorine can
cause respiratory injury ranging from irritation to death, depending upon its concentration and
duration of exposure.
ACUTE EXPOSURE
The first symptom of exposure to chlorine is irritation to the mucous membranes, eyes, nose and
throat followed by burning pain. Irritation spreads to the chest. A reflex cough develops which may be
intensive and often associated with pain. The cough may lead to vomiting. Cellular damage may occur
with excretion of fluid in the alveoli. This may prove fatal if adequate treatment is not given
immediately. Vomit may contain blood due to lesions of mucous membrane caused by the gas. Other
common symptoms include headache, retro-sternal burning; nausea, painful breathing sweating, eye,
nose and throat irritations; coughing, vomiting, increase in respiratory and pulse rate. Massive
inhalation of chlorine produces pulmonary oedema; fall of blood pressure and in a few minutes
cardiac arrest. Following table indicates the hazards of chlorine at different atmospheric
concentrations;
CHLORINE - DEGREE OF HAZARD. Concentration in Air (ppm)
002 - 0.5 No noxious long term effect
0.5 - 1.0 Slight odour
1.0 - 3.0 Definite odour, irritation of eyes and nose.
6.0 - Irritation of throat
30 - Intense cough fits
40 - 60 Exposure without effective respirator for 30 -60
minutes or more May cause serious damage.
100 May cause lethal damage
1000 Danger to life even after few deep inhalations.
CHRONIC EXPOSURE
Men rapidly lose their ability to detect the odour of chlorine in small concentration. Therefore
concentrations considerably higher than the TLV may occur without being immediately noticeable.
Prolonged exposure to concentrations of 5-ppm results in disease of bronchi and a predisposition to
tuberculosis. Concentrations of 0.8-1 ppm cause moderate but permanent reduction in pulmonary
function. Persons exposed for long period of time to low concentrations of chlorine may suffer from
―acne‘. Tooth enamel damage may also occur.
FIRE & EXPLOSION HAZARD
Neither liquid nor gaseous chlorine is explosive or flammable by itself but both react readily with
many organic substances, usually with evolution of heat and in some cases resulting in explosion
It may react to cause fires or explosions upon contact with turpentine, ether, ammonia gas,
hydrocarbons, hydrogen, powdered metals, sawdust and phosphorus.
Since one volume of the liquid chlorine when vaporized yields about 460 volumes of gas, hydrostatic
rupture in containers, pipelines and other equipment may occur due to build up of excessive pressure.
Hydrogen and chlorine can form explosive mixtures, more so in sunlight and at high temperature.
Precaution must therefore be taken to prevent the mixing of hydrogen with chlorine in dangerous
proportions. The lower explosive limit of hydrogen chlorine mixtures caries from 3.1 to 8.1 per cent,
depending on pressure and other variables.
Page 141 of 170
DISPERSION OF GASES
When the toxic gases are released into the atmosphere, they are carried by wind and spread out due to
atmospheric turbulence. The pattern of dispersion and the extent of spreading of these gases can be
approximately evaluated knowing the wind speed. Stack height and the properties of gases the major
toxic gas that can get released into the atmosphere from the factory is chlorine.
SAFE DIRECTION OF ESCAPE
It is clear from the above study of dispersion pattern of gases that the best direction of escape is run
into the wind away from stack.
POPULATION LIKELY TO AFFECT
Zone – A: 300 Persons
Zone – B: 1200 Persons
Zone - C: 3000 Persons
FACILITITES AVAILABLE AT PLANT
1. Jeep – 1No.
2. Safety Masks are provided only to the workers
MEDICIAL REMEDIES
Persons who have inhaled chlorine gas should be kept at rest with the head and chest raised. They
have to be kept warm. It is essential the qualified medial attention is obtained quickly, as serious
symptoms may develop up to 48 hours later. All persons who have been affected by chlorine gas
should be examined locally by medically competent persons or sent to hospital by ambulance.
First aid attendance should be aware of the dangers arising from gassing by chlorine. The following
basic rule should be observed.
a) If chlorine has affected the eyes, they should be irrigated immediately with plenty of clean
water (preferably tap water).
b) Contaminated clothing should be removed affected skin washed with plenty of water.
c) Artificially respiration should be applied if the patient is breathing (Oxygen may however
administrated by trained personnel.)

Hazard
1. LPG 10 Ton Bullet Liquefied Fire & Explosion
RISK ASSESSMENT
LPG is highly inflammable and super heated liquid stored inside bullet and in case of pressure
crossing the designed pressure of the bullet, a chain reaction takes place, which may cause the
catastrophic failure of the vessels and in turn formation of fire balls. This characteristic is called
―BLEVE‖ (Boiling liquid expanding Vapour explosion) and this failure of the vessel may cause
damage to human life producing heat radiation.
Instant catastrophic failure of LPG vessels of BLEVE and leakage of LPG Either from safety valve
pipeline leads to vapour cloud explosion.
From BLEVE calculation it is found that the safe distance from the tank is Approximately 500M and
for risk analysis different zones may be classified as:
Zone A –Most affected (0to 50 M, heat radiation will be around 40 to 50 KW/sqm)
Zone B- moderately affected (50 to 100 M, heat radiation will be around 30KW/sqm)
Zone C – Least affected (above 200 m, heat will be around 5KW per sq.m)
