Policies and StrategiesDisaster Prevention and Management(b) Creation of Disaster prevention and mitigation units in each energyentity. The NERC shall enforce this requirement through licensingand other regulatory tools. In addition, every energy entity shall berequired to have access to the requisite adequate response unitsincluding fire trucks and ambulances.(c) The Consolidated Energy Fund shall cater for among others theenergy sector disaster mitigation and response to cater forcompensation arising out of environmental damage.(d) Mandatory taking out of an environmental liability insurance policy byentities in the sector.(e) County Governments to set up energy disaster management units tocoordinate disaster management in co-ordination with the NationalDisaster Operations Centre and the ministry responsible for energyon disaster prevention and response.(f)Mainstreaming weather and climate data and information to thesector’s core activities.(g) Undertaking of deliberate and coordinated training and educationprogrammes to develop the capacity for disaster preparednessactivities.(h) Provide for enhancement of petroleum depots safety by prohibitingthe parking of a petroleum tanker in an oil terminal/depot for morethan one hour after loading.(i)(j)All County Governments to designate parking lots for petroleumtankers and prescribing a fine for non-compliance by a County, in thesum of one million shillings.Full clearance of all way leaves and access roads to preventoccupation and potential disaster including reallocation of existingoccupants to prevent encroachment.4. Develop mechanism for provision of security for all energy installations,which shall be treated as national protected zones.5. The following strategies will be used for risk reduction and adoption:(a) Information Base: The sector will develop information and adatabase on weather and climate factors at national level and atspecific site levels. Specific sites here refer to sites that continuallyunderstudy the interaction between weather and climate on thesystem and other stress monitors that relay vulnerability. Oneimportant factor here is accuracy of information and reliability.(b) Risk zoning: Zoning and mapping helps to enhance of evaluation riskand vulnerability. Risk mapping shall be a continuous exerciseupdating risk assessment results in the maps and subsequent zoningShort Term2014-2017Implementation PlanMedium Term2014-2022Long Term2014-2030 108 NATIONAL ENERGY POLICY FINAL DRAFT NOVEMBER 2013
of the risk levels.Policies and StrategiesDisaster Prevention and Management(c) Disaster response plans: Using the information on climate andweather and risk prone points of a system, detailed disasterresponse plans will mitigate vulnerability. The plans shall includerapid reaction activity plans and initial attack or emergency steps.(d) Disaster plans and costing centres: Update to date disastermanagement plans are key in reducing risk and vulnerability.6. Promote the concept of resilience: that is the ability at every relevant levelto detect, prevent, and, if necessary, to handle disruptive challenges whileminimizing damage to humans, infrastructure and the environment. Thisshall be instituted into the energy production and delivery systems, and inparticular, the following broad policy measures will be undertaken by allthe energy sector investments:(a) Establishment of functional hazard monitoring systems for feedbackpurposes(b) Support the development and operationalization of a Control of MajorHazard Facilities Framework in consultation with other statutoryauthorities.Short Term2014-2017Implementation PlanMedium Term2014-2022Long Term2014-2030109 6.0 – LAND, ENVIRONMENT, HEALTH AND SAFETY
