104 ESCAP/WMO Typhoon Committee Annual Review 2009 - Deduction and selection of flood control measures that rely on the experience of experts; - Absence of a unified procedure or system; - Estimation of the economical efficiency of flood control measures based solely on structural damage. Moreover, criteria for selecting certain flood control measures over others are unclear, giving rise to considerable vagueness and confusion. Although basin-unit flood control has been attracting more attention since the launch of the integrated basin flood control project, an integrated process or system is yet to be developed for assessing and preparing basinunit flood control plans. The eventual objective of this research is to establish a standardized and integrated assessment system for flood control measures, - Construction of a reasonable and integrated flood control measure assessment system; - Utilization as a future pre-assessment system; - Enhancement of international cooperation among Members in the region. so that these measures can ultimately find practical use in Member countries of the TC community to reduce socio-economic damage caused by typhoons and floods in the region. The assessment system may make it possible to implement pre-assessment steps to select economically optimal flood control measures, which would then enable Member countries to develop their own capacity against floods while also strengthening international cooperation among Members. - Proposal of a scheme for an integrated assessment system of flood control measures; - Establishment of a scheme to select economically optimal flood control measures; - Construction of a viable assessment system for Typhoon Committee Members. Since its inception, the project has surveyed and analyzed the current status of flood control measures in Korea and Member countries including several developed countries. To understand the weaknesses of each existing assessment system or framework, information was collected on flood response measures from major related organizations. It was also necessary to analyze each flood control measure assessment system implemented by developed countries and Members. Analysis was conducted of each Member’s needs and expectations regarding such an assessment system, as well as technical information and data required to build such a system to help design a preliminary assessment system. This was followed by constructing a database to manage inputs/outputs of each assessment factor. Finally, a basic design for the assessment system was developed upon which to devise a master plan for a flood control measure assessment system that will eventually satisfy the identified goals and requirements. As mentioned above and shown in Fig. 28, the goal of this project is not only to evaluate structural measures, but also to propose a process and methodology to properly determine flood discharge in basins and river channels and non-structural measures such as gradation of protection levels according to flood control regions and allocation of flood discharge. Research and analysis are currently under way on hydrological results and socio-economic impacts caused by each existing flood measure. HAZUS- MH, a standardized system for quantified analysis and data developed by the US FEMA, serves as a model of the prospective assessment system and key reference for this project. HAZUS-MH enables integrated assessment of flood damage and unifies operational procedures and systems. At the same time, HAZUS-MH is equipped with a general-purpose database structure. By implementing an analysis of each module, the assessment system that this project seeks to realize is being refined. The project will be completed in 2012 with an integrated and comprehensive flood control measure assessment system that will help minimize socio-economic damage caused by floods. Ultimately, the final assessment system
will be used to establish more efficient flood control measures, and at an international level, to strengthen technical and information-oriented cooperation among Members in the region. Fig. 28. Preliminary design of measure classification system c. Disaster Prevention and Preparedness Achievements/Results Foundation of promotion corps to reinforce vulnerable zones Korea’s National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) founded a promotion corps on 28 October 2009 to reinforce vulnerable zones and energize the regional economies of these zones. Government support will include a budget of 888 million USD for Year 2010 to strengthen disaster prevention in disaster-prone regions, rural streams, and construction sites. The promotion corps composed a technical support team consisting of government officers of NIDP and university researchers to help minimize budget waste and prepare countermeasures for vulnerable zones. If the budget for disaster prevention projects is invested appropriately according to plan, improvement projects for 791 disaster-vulnerable zones will be completed, bringing capacity up to date by 5 years. Improvement projects will also be implemented for 14 disaster prevention facilities including the Nohak drain pump in Sokcho, Gangwon-do, showing an upgrading for 3 years compared to its pre-project status. d.
