ARAHAN KEBIJAKAN MITIGASI BENCANA BANJIR BANDANG  DI DAERAH ALIRAN SUNGAI (DAS) KURANJI, KOTA PADANG  (Policy Direction on Flash Floods Disaster Mitigation in Kuranji Watershed, Padang City)

The flash flood disaster in Maipi, Masamba, North Luwu Regency occurred on July 13, 2020, has caused various problems. The community's unpreparedness in dealing with flash floods disasters creates psychological stress (traumatic) as well as social and economic impacts. This community service aimed to assist the community in increasing their knowledge, abilities, and independence in facing and overcoming disaster problems after flash floods. The method used is by conducting disaster mitigation training and agricultural extension agents. The benchmarks for the success of this activity are, first, increasing knowledge about disasters and ways of dealing with them in community groups. Second, the increased capacity of community groups regarding the optimization of land damaged by flash floods as a forum for the community to produce vegetables with economic value.

The research titled “Bima’s Women and Post Disaster Mitigation Adaption Strategy for flash floods (Case Study of Women in Maintaining family Economics After The Flash Floods Disaster in Bima)” Takes place in Nisa Village, Woha Subdistrict, Bima District. By doing this research, the researcher are expected to be able to: (1) knowing in depth the adaptive strategy done by women in reconstructing their social life after flash floods disaster, (2) knowing the change of life after flash floods, (3) knowing the obstacles faced by women in the implementation post flash floods adaptive strategy. This research uses explorative qualitative research method. The research location is located in Nisa Village, Woha District, Bima District, West Nusa Tenggara Province. The subjects of this study were women housewives and Nisa village apparatus. Data were collected through interviews and observations to collect information on adavtive strategies, changes in post-flash floods life, and the constraints faced by women in implementing adaptive strategies after the flash floods disaster. Further data analysis by performing several stages that include data collection, data classification, interpretation to the writing of research reports. The results of this research show that (i) Nisa village women experiencing changes in economic, social and cultural life after the disaster flash floods. (ii) adaptive strategies implemented by Nisa village women in sustaining their household economies, among others, by active strategies in the form of exploiting natural resources and human resources from close relatives, extending working hours, and working to reduce family economic expenditure. The network strategy undertaken by Nisa village women is by owing the banks and neighbors. (iii) the constraints faced by women in Nisa village in carrying out an effective strategy are the loss of some natural resources that can support economic recovery , large losses due to flood disaster become an obstacle in economic recovery, and lack of acces to village economic institutions.

Flooding Risk

Purpose The rapid and ongoing expansion of urbanised impervious areas could lead to more frequent flood inundation in urban flood-prone regions. Nowadays, urban flood inundation induced by rainstorm is an expensive natural disaster in many countries. In order to reduce the flooding risk, eco-roof systems (or green roof systems) could be considered as an effective mechanism of mitigating flooding disasters through their rainwater retention capability. However, there is still a lack of examining the stormwater management tool. The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the effects on flooding disaster from extensive green roofs. Design/methodology/approach Based on geographical information system (GIS) simulation, this research presents a frame of assessing eco-roof impacts on urban flash floods. The approach addresses both urban rainfall-runoff and underground hydrologic models for traditional impervious and green roofs. Deakin University’s Geelong Waurn Ponds campus is chosen as a study case. GIS technologies are then utilised to visualise and analyse the effects on flood inundation from surface properties of building roofs. Findings The results reveal that the eco-roof systems generate varying degrees of mitigation of urban flood inundation with different return period storms. Originality/value Although the eco-roof technology is considered as an effective stormwater management tool, it is not commonly adopted and examined in urban floods. This study will bring benefits to urban planners for raising awareness of hazard impacts and to construction technicians for considering disaster mitigation via roof technologies. The approach proposed here could be used for the disaster mitigation in future urban planning.

This research is backed by the lack of attention of the government in the world of education against the risk of Post eruption of Dempo volcano in Pagar Alam City in the form of preparation and socialization of disaster mitigation measures, evacuation pathways provided, early warning systems in the volcano disaster-prone areas. On the other hand, with disaster preparedness, damage and victim numbers can be minimized. The purpose of this research is to formulate a priority referral education mitigation of the eruption of post-eruption of Dempo volcano. Data collection using relevant interviews, observations and information collection. Then the data is grouped by hazard level criteria, vulnerabilities, and risks that may arise. Data is processed with assessment and analysis with the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP). Research findings suggest that the priorities of disaster mitigation education of post-eruption of Dempo volcano are as follows: the measurable and periodical aspects of training and disaster simulation (0.832), coordination and cooperation in anticipating disasters of (0.813), human resources amounting to (0.801), routes and evacuation sites amounting to (0.799), and early warning systems of (0.795).

AbstractThe occurrence of flash floods in 2017 that hit Tebing Tinggi City in North Sumatra Province caused 33,825 lives to be affected. That shows that the potential for flash floods disasters in the North Sumatra region, including in the Padang River Basin, is classified as very high. The purpose of this study is to determine the location of potential riverbank landslides that cause river flow obstructions (natural dams) in the Padang River Basin. The method used in this study is a qualitative method using geographic information systems. The data analysis technique used is the cone stacking technique of research variable maps. The variables used to analyze the potential of riverbank landslides are the appearance of existing landslides, topography (flow accumulation), and geology (faults). The results of this study indicate that there are 86 locations with potential landslides that can cause natural dams. The most potential location is the Padang sub-watershed with 48 sub-areas.Keywords: Disaster Mitigation, Spatial Modeling, Flash floods, Geographic Information Systems AbstrakKejadian banjir bandang tahun 2017 yang melanda Kota Tebing Tinggi Provinsi Sumatera Utara menyebabkan 33.825 jiwa terdampak.
