The Plan is recommended for approval as a National working live document. This plan is approved by the Signed ………………………………………………………………… Date …………../……../…………. Hon. Dr. Naomi Namsi Shaban, EGH, MP Ministry of State for Special Programmes. Signed ………………………………………………………………… Date …………../……../…………. Hon.Prof.George Saitoti, EGH, MP Ministry of Provincial Administration and Internal Security ii PREFACE A disaster-emergency condition due to the forces of nature or human intervention or to both, generates extensive damage and destruction to life or property; is accompanied by extensive social and physical disruption and overwhelms the resources of the affected community or country to provide a timely and effective response to meet the needs of the situation. The emergency aspect of such an event requires immediate attention to alleviate threats to life, pain, distress, anxiety and the destruction to the environment. This Plan gives appropriate guidelines for coordination and response to all types of disasters / Emergencies. It is expected that provinces and districts will use the plan to develop and implement their own hazard specific plans and train the relevant personnel. The plan was developed through a consultative process among the stakeholders from the Government Ministries, UN agencies, I/NGOs, World Vision, the Kenya Red Cross and other Humanitarian partners. This plan recognizes the lead role of the Kenya Government coordinating disaster preparedness and response. The plan seeks to build upon, streamlining and strengthening the already existing coordination structures in Kenya. The plan recognizes the use of internationally recognized tools and procedures in disaster response. The plan builds upon the Humanitarian Code of Conduct and Charter and the Sphere Standards. The plan aims to strengthen disaster preparedness for effective response at all levels and thus contributing to the implementation of the Hyogo Framework for Action that seeks to build the resilience of nations and communities to disasters. This plan shall be revised accordingly with lessons learnt and good practices documented. Simulation exercises shall be conducted to test the plan where necessary to prove the plan’s effectiveness. The Ministry of State for Special Programmes (MSSP) and the Provincial Administration and Internal Security, National Disaster Operation Centre (NDOC) acknowledges the technical support of United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (UNOCHA), UN Agencies, Kenya Red Cross Society, World Vision and other partners in the development of this plan. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS

In the pursuit of effective and timely response to disasters, the Government through the Ministry of State for Special Programmes and National Disaster Operations Centre Ministry of State for Provincial Administration and Internal Security has formulated this National Disaster Response Plan. This plan seeks to advance the activities that fall under Priority Area Number Five of the Hyogo Framework for Action 2005-2015, which seeks, to “building the resilience of nations and communities to disasters” by strengthening disaster preparedness for effective response at all levels. This plan serves to confirm the arrangements in Kenya to effectively address disaster response issues in order to lessen the impact of the disasters once they occur. The responsibility for the implementation of the plan is that of the Ministry for State for Special Programmes in conjunction with National Disaster Operation Centre. There will be an established system providing operational concepts and procedures associated with day-to-day operational response to emergencies by respective departments when disaster strikes. This will contain hazard specific and departmental or thematic contingency plans and emergency procedures in the event of a disaster, providing for:– • The allocation of responsibilities to the various role players and coordination in the carrying out of those responsibilities; • Effective early warning linked to early response and relief; • Early recovery linked to longer-term development after disaster. Aim The Aim of this Plan is to establish an understanding of the structure and operating procedures for addressing all aspects of disaster preparedness and response in Kenya. This plan seeks to ensure that disaster preparedness for response is carried in a coordinated and collaborative manner, ensuring the greatest protection of life, property, health and environment. Scope of the Plan • The Plan is the operating instructions for Ministry of State for Special Programmes, Ministry of State for Provincial Administration -National Disaster Operations Centre - government departments and other collaborating partners countrywide. • The Plan addresses all natural and some man-made hazards to which the country is exposed and builds upon the existence of departmental and hazard specific disaster response and contingency plans. ix • The Plan addresses disaster-management functions for which MSSP and NDOC has primary coordination responsibility e.g. Relief, Shelters, Provincial / District Emergency Operation Centre, Damage Assessment and Needs Analysis. Execution The Permanent Secretary, MSSP is authorized to mobilize any portion of this Plan to reduce against, or respond to and recover from the effects of disasters, emergencies or the imminent threat of a disaster emergency. This Plan shall become automatically operational upon a declaration of a disaster or major emergency or as the situation, conditions or needs may dictate. In the implementation of this plan, NDOC shall act as the operational arm/secretariat of MSSP.. Planning Assumptions a. A disaster or emergency may occur with little or no warning and may cause a large number of casualties with widespread damage and disruption. b. Government Agencies, Humanitarian organizations, I/NGOs, CBOs/CSOs, FBOs, Volunteers and the private sector may need to respond on short notice to provide timely and effective assistance to the State. c. Government agencies and other collaborating stakeholders will support the overall Concept of Operations of the SOP and will carry out their functional responsibilities. d. All Government agencies, critical facilities and other collaborating stakeholders shall have developed general disaster/emergency and contingency plans. These organizations will implement preparedness, mitigation, response and recovery activities and exercises in order to maintain the overall national response capability. e. No single disaster event will completely devastate the country rendering it uninhabitable. f. The Permanent Secretary, MSSP is authorized to mobilize any portion of this National Disaster/Emergency Plan to respond and recover from the effects of disasters/ emergencies or the imminent threat of a disaster/emergency. Planning Considerations The following basic considerations will apply when planning for disaster response: a. Institutional framework on disaster response. b. Disaster emergency contingency fund. c. Existing disaster emergency response capacity in major cities and towns. d. Inter ministerial / department mutual support agreements. e. National early warnings mechanism. f. Evacuation plans and procedures available. g. Emergency Medical Services (EMS) and Healthcare. h. Community training and awareness. i. Maintenance of law and order. j. External assistance on request. x Amendments to the Plan a. Proposals for amendment or additions to this plan should be made by contacting: The Director, The National [Disaster] Operation Centre [NOC] Nyayo House 3rd Floor P.O Box 48956 - 00100 Nairobi, Kenya Telephone General: +254 02 2211445, 210053 Operations: +254 02 2212386 Fax: +254 02 2210077, 2250649 E-Mail: operations@Nationaldisaster.go.ke, nationadisaster@nationaldisaster.go.ke b. Proposed amendments which affect procedural matters will require prior review and approval by the Technical Task Force/Committee of Disaster Preparedness and Response. c. Proposed amendments of minor nature, e.g. names, telephone numbers, addresses, etc which, do not affect the procedural matters will be dealt with administratively by the Director and promulgated as per the Distribution List. d. The workability of this plan will be reviewed one after two years through conducting of drills (simulation exercises) among the stakeholders. 1 CHAPTER 1 Disaster Risk Assessment in Kenya 1. Kenya is situated in East Africa within latitude 5o north to 5o south, longitudes 34o east to 41.24o west. It has a surface area of 582,650 km2. It’s bordered by Ethiopia and Sudan to the north, Somalia and Indian Ocean to the east, Tanzania to the south and Uganda and Lake Victoria to the West. 2. Kenya’s population is estimated at 36,600,000 today. Out of this 78.5% is rural, the rest being in the urban setups. Urbanization and rural to urban migration is increasing rapidly. Many of the urban dwellers are settled in informal settlements that are vulnerable to hazards such as fires, floods, landslides, diseases and conflict. In Nairobi the capital city alone, 60% of the population lives in slums. This is the population that is most affected when disaster strikes. Poverty remains the main development concern with over 46% of Kenyans living below the income poverty line of US$1/day. The high poverty thresholds in Kenya are probably the key underlying cause to the increased vulnerability of majority of Kenyans. High poverty levels increase the vulnerability of most people to minor hazards. Extreme vulnerability in parts of the country creates a tendency for minor hazards to turn into humanitarian emergencies as that which occurs every rain season during which tens of thousands get displaced due to floods or during drought seasons. 3. The disaster risk assessment in Kenya over the years has seen a number of hazards such as drought, famine, food insecurity, floods, epidemics, landslides, sea waves, tsunamis and technological hazards, deforestation, desertification, transport accidents, conflicts, pollution, structural failure, terrorism, fires, and others. 4. Over 80% of the Kenyan land mass is arid or semi-arid and continues to suffer from recurrent droughts that cause massive food insecurity. More than one million people are in constant food insecurity in the ASAL alone and urban informal settlements. With the exception of Central Province and Nairobi, all other provinces score poverty incidence rates of greater than 50%1. Indeed, complex combinations of socio-economic, political, environmental, cultural and structural factors act and interact to affect vulnerability to hazards or disasters. 1 Ibid 2 TABLE 1: KENYA SUMMARY CHARACTERISTICS 2 HDR 2006 3 WDR 2006 4 UNDP HDR 2006 5 UNDP HDR 2007 6 Kenya HIV/AIDS Indicator Survey, 2008 7 Joint Monitoring Programme, 2007 – UNICEF/WHO Kenya Population 36.6 million2.

Drought and floods as well as epidemics are the main natural hazards that impact most severely on the Kenyan population. Conflicts and industrial accidents impact various households and communities in varying degrees. 6. Child malnutrition rates in the north-east of the country are persistent with Global Acute Malnutrition rates ranging from 15% to 30%, alongside lagging immunization rates. Although Kenya is a net producer of food, more than 50% of the population remains chronically food insecure. 7. Kenya also experiences significant imbalances in developmental equity. Educational enrolment, particularly for girls, is less than 20% in many of the north eastern districts. Infrastructure development is extremely poor and this impacts negatively on humanitarian access during rains or floods. While the central highlands regions of the country are productive, other parts such as the drought prone districts in northern, north-eastern and coastal Kenya remain pegged to pastoral or agro-pastoral livelihoods which are highly vulnerable to a number of threats. 8. Malaria remains the main cause of morbidity and mortality accounting for 5% of deaths in the country. TB and HIV/AIDS remain major diseases with far-reaching consequences to the country. The HIV/AIDs prevalence rate in Kenya stands at 7.4 per cent. According to the Kenya Aids Indicator Survey (KAIS) shows 1.4 million Kenyans aged between 15 and 64 are infected with HIV. But 83% of them do not know their status. Two-thirds of Kenyan adults have never been tested for HIV. It is estimated that the HIV prevalence in Nyanza is at 15.3, Nairobi 9.0, Coast 7.9 per cent, Rift Valley 7.0, Western 5.1, Eastern 4.7 per cent, Central 3.8 per cent and North Eastern 1.0 per cent.8 9. Some of the areas in Rift Valley and Nyanza provinces are known prone to earthquakes and volcanic activity in Kenya, although their damages and casualties have been low. Records of frequent seismic activities have been observed in recent years. The earth tremors of July 2007 that emanated from Mt. Oldoinyo Lengai in Northern Tanzania indicate that the country is at risk to earthquakes. 10. The coastal region is at risk to sea waves, sea surges, cyclones and tsunamis. The tsunami of December 2004 that originated from Indonesia affected the Kenya 8 Kenya Aids Indicator Survey (KAIS, 2008). 4 coastal areas of Shimoni, Malindi and Lamu. One life was lost and over 20,000 livelihood activities were affected due to damage to businesses and fishing equipment. 11. The fast population increase in Kenya is putting pressure on energy requirements. This in turn is making people to look for alternative sources of energy such as wood fuel. Massive deforestation through charcoal burning and search for agricultural land is leading to unsustainable use of the forest recourses that leads to increased risks to droughts, floods, erosion, diseases, etc. 12. Technological accidents are a common phenomenon in Kenya. Road accidents, aviation accidents and water transport accidents continue to occur frequently, claiming lives and causing injuries to thousands of people. Delivery of fossil fuels (oil, gas and coal) through road, railway, water and pipeline systems poses risks to the environment and vulnerable communities in case of accidents. 13. Terrorism remains one of the biggest threats to the Kenyan population. A single incident in August 1998 in downtown Nairobi left 214 people dead and over 5000 injured. Property worth millions of shillings was destroyed and over 50,000 livelihoods were affected. 14. Violent Conflicts and crime continue to affect many people in various ways. The post-election violence of December 2007 resulted in an upsurge of armed groups and vigilantes, which resulted to over 1020 people killed and over 300,000 internally displaced. Many hot spot areas remain in many parts of Kenya due to resource based conflicts. 15. Kenya’s porous borders with Somalia and Sudan facilitate large-scale refugee flows. Furthermore, resource scarcities along the borders with Ethiopia and Uganda puts thousands at risk from periodic cattle raids and inter-communal conflict. Kenya continues to host about 270,000 refugees mainly of Somali and Sudanese origin who are based in Dadaab and Kakuma. 16. Every disaster incident results in internal displacement of affected populations. Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) challenges will always recur in Kenya. 5 17. Climate Change has now been confirmed beyond reasonable doubt to be a global reality. The evidence comes from increases in global average air and ocean temperatures; widespread melting of snow and ice; and rising global average sea level. In Kenya, the glaciers and snow on the Mt. Kenya and Mt. Kilimanjaro are almost disappearing are indicative of this phenomenon. 18. Select hazard maps are provided at Annex K for reference. Table 2.

These procedures are meant to enable coordination for effective and efficient response to national disaster emergencies to minimise loss of life and its extended collateral effects. They are to be read as a guide and in conjunction with the laws, regulations and procedures governing disaster and emergency response agencies. Concept of Operation 20. Upon activation of this plan, the command and control of the disaster emergency will be overseen at the Coordination Centre known as the Joint Operation Centre (JOC).The Coordination will be established at either the Ministry/MSSP/NDOC office or other designated site as the disaster emergency situation may dictate. The Director of the National Disaster Operations Centre is authorized to mobilize any portion of these procedures to respond and recover from the effects of disaster emergencies or the imminent threat of a disaster emergency. 21. The Director of NDOC will be responsible for: a The activation of the Joint Operations Centre (JOC) b The Operation of the JOC c Staffing the JOC at the required level with the relevant technical staff from other departments and ministries. Table 9. Phases of Operation 22. This concept of operation is based on four (4) phases: S/No Phase Action 1 Alert - The Director receives advice of impending threat from an early warning agency The Director puts NDOC on alert. The Director informs relevant Primary and Support Agencies to be on alert. The Director alerts members of JOC if warranted. 61 2 Standby - The Director receives warning of imminent disaster emergency The Director activates the JOC to appropriate staff level; The Director activates Primary Support Agencies and places all secondary support agencies on standby. 3 Activation - The Director receives information of a disaster occurrence; The Director activates upon conclusion of rapid assessment report; The Director activates Primary response agencies; The Director mobilizes the secondary response agencies; The Director coordinates response activities and progress with NDEC/Humanitarian Service Committee The Director organizes real time evaluation of disaster response operations 4 Stand Down/acti vation of recovery The Director receives an assessment report indicating normalization; The Director issues a stand down of primary emergency response and activates recovery response; The Director coordinates the handing over to an appropriate recovery agency; The Director coordinates with Liaison Officers and arranges time and location for debriefing; Primary and Support Agency personnel are debriefed and stood down on completion of final tasks; Lessons learnt exercise conducted on how effective all the response agencies performed; The Director monitors recovery progress and makes a final report; Final reports completed and distributed by various agencies in accordance with relevant Standard Operating Procedures. NB: Depending on the type of disaster and level, the phases and actions may overlap at times. It will be the discretion of the Director to activate the appropriate action as the conditions and resources may dictate. 23. Levels of Operation in Disaster Response a. Level 1 Localized emergency events dealt within the regular operating mode of the protective, emergency and health services in the district. b. Level 2 62 Disaster Emergency events that overwhelm the capacity of the resources in the municipal/ district, but which do not overwhelm the capacity of the provincial resources to respond and recover (such zones of impact can be declared Affected Areas). c. Level 3 Disaster Emergency events that requires the mobilising of national resources to respond and recover (such an event may be designated as a national disaster). This will prompt seeking of assistance from other external partners. d. Level 4 A Disaster Emergency event that overwhelms the existing national response capacity, thus prompting the President to declare a national disaster to seek foreign/international assistance to support the country in the response and recovery initiatives e. The response of the NDOC and other collaborating response agencies depends on the severity of the disaster emergency and the type of assistance required. Table 10. Standard Operating Procedures for Varying Emergency Levels Level Activities Responsibility Level 1 Monitor situation Compile Report on Incident and Assess Response District Commissioner, 63 Level 2 • MSSP/NDOC personnel will seek from the incident specialist (e.g. Meteorological Service, Public Works, Seismic Research Unit or the particular industry) technical details of the incident and any additional safety procedures. • MSSP/NDOC‘s staff will check with the Public Utilities – Water, Electricity, Gas and Sewage to determine the impact (if any) of the emergency upon their service. • Confirm event and issue call out (Fire Services, Police, Ambulance, NDOC, Medical and Public Health) • Director decides whether to include Information and media people • Establish Field Joint Operation Centre/Incident Command Post • Minimum personnel for the forward command post includes: Fire Service Representative(s) Police Service Representative(s) Health Representative(s) Works Department Representative(s) Municipal Corporation’s representative(s) NDOC Director (or as designated) Facility Owner/Operator • Coordination of the Disaster/Emergency • Relief & Welfare Management • Rehabilitation and Recovery • Increasing of Disaster/Emergency State or Stand down • Control of secondary hazards such as fire • Restoration utilities such as, water, electricity, sewage etc. • Public Health – insect vector and rodent control as well MSSP, NDOC, UN Agencies, I/NGOs, KRCS, Government Departments, Humanitarian Agencies 64 as addressing cesspit overflow e.g. floods. • Road and drainage clearance Providing that it is safe to do so, NDOC Director will attend at the incident area with the necessary equipment to the established (or to establish) JOC.

Emergency relief will require immediate action for the alleviation of or deliverance from pain, distress and anxiety. The following criteria has been set forth for identifying and evaluating applications for emergency relief made by private citizens for assistance resulting from consequential damage sustained as a result of a hazardous event of Level 2 /3 / 4 emergency . Emergency relief assistance for disasters/emergencies will be applied where it is determined that the capability of the affected community to assist itself is exceeded. Notification of such an event by the local services will initiate activation of this relief process. It is noted that the priorities of the emergency response will be life, shelter and basic needs (water, clothes, and food). Food relief constitutes items sufficient to meet 2600 calories (average calorie requirement per person per day) for 3 days. Damage Assessment and Needs Analysis (DANA) will be determined by DANA teams, in the first instance, within eight (8) hours of the event and subsequently within the next 72 hours to one week. Further needs assessment will depend on the nature of the disaster emergency and level. As much as possible the emergency relief exercise will be completed within one to three weeks of the incident. 69 The Sphere guidelines will be used where application during the response. Requests for International Assistance 29. Any requests for any assistance from outside the country shall be dealt with as per the agreed procedures. Such may come from the United Nations or Bi-lateral country requests as the emergency may dictate. The Permanent Secretary, Ministry of State for Special Programmes will facilitate the accessing of contingency funds for disaster emergency response based on the modalities to be established and agreed upon with the Finance and Planning ministries. INCIDENT COMMAND SYSTEM 30. These SOPs adopt the incident command system for a standardized on-site and off-site all hazard incident emergency response. This will enable to implement a flexible and scalable framework. The Incident Command System shall be as shown below: Disaster On-site Layout 31. On-site Structure The On-site structure will ensure effective and efficient command of response operations within the disaster site. 70 OUTER CORDON Figure 6: On Site Emergency Response Structure NB: The establishment of the above points is dictated by the respective disaster emergencies. Some of the points can be combined or handled by the same person without necessarily establishing centres. Main Point of Impact Triage OPS Centre (LA) Command Centre (JOC) RSC JIC EXIT ENTRY Assembly area Family Center HME 71 Response Support Centre 32. Protracted Operations Should damage or disruption be in such an extent, that operations are to continue over a number of days, the policy of daily meetings with officers in charge of control authorities and support organizations will be implemented for the purpose of coordinating effort and establishing priorities. The safety and welfare of the officers and staff working late or away from home should be given priority as per the usual government procedures. A Response Support Centre (RSC) shall be established ensures the welfare and safety of the responding teams. The RSC shall ensure: a. The smooth functioning of the JOC round the clock in 3 shifts of 8 hours each. b. In extreme cases, the shifts should not last more than 12 hours c. Key departments for staffing the centre are NDOC representative, LA representative, local administration representative and Medical representative. d.

Other Annex G Guidelines to Contingency Planning Process What is Contingency Planning? • A forward planning process, in a state of uncertainty, which scenarios and objectives are agreed, managerial & technical aspects defined, and potential response systems put in place in order to prevent, or better respond to and emergency. It is a process that involves? • Analysing potential emergencies and their humanitarian impact • Prioritising potential emergencies • Developing appropriate plans, including establishing clear goals, setting objectives, policies and procedures to deal with prioritized potential emergencies and • Ensuring necessary preparedness measures and follow-up actions are taken. Why Plan? • Enhance effectiveness and timeliness of response to emergencies • Help ensure that response is coordinated • Avoid problems by attempting to anticipate and overcome difficulties. • Create relationships and forums with other agencies and actors. • Planning ensures effective emergency management When to plan? • In the face of imminent emergency • In the face of recurrent disasters / hazards e.g. floods, fires, drought etc • Contingency planning should be incorporated into all relevant regular planning process. • Contingency plans should be updated regularly • Rapid changing situations require frequent updating. What to plan for? • All types of humanitarian emergencies • Complex emergencies • Natural and environmental disasters • Significant crises • Planning should be specific taking into account the situation at hand, district/government capacity, donor support, likelihood of occurrence, the population’s vulnerability etc. Who to plan with? • Contingency planning is a participatory process and includes all actors. • Level of involvement of other actors depends primarily on the contextual situation & assessment of the situation • Contingency plans should be made in consideration to other local existing plans by other organisations / agencies /depts./etc. 141 • Government Departments, NGOS, CBOs, Private Sector, Federal, Districts, Tehsils, Community UN Agencies in Province, etc Who to plan with? • Different organisations/agencies & depts have different mandates • Transparency and inclusiveness leads to a more effective response. • Some situations are sensitive and require preclusion during planning. Who leads the planning process? • Any organisation / agency / Department or Line Ministry with a comparative advantage of of handling the situation at hand should take the lead in planning. • The government of Kenya takes the lead in contingency planning. • Other organisations come in to support where necessary. • Some situations necessitate other of organisations / agencies to take lead in planning. • Each organisation has its own plans Where to Plan (Geographical Coverage) Geographical coverage or hazard guided CONTENTS OF A CONTINGENCY PLAN - Example 1.
