This paper highlighted the role of the physical planner in Environmental Impact Assessment, raised eight fundamental issues on EIA and physical planning and suggested several tasks which Caribbean physical planners might undertake to strengthen the EIA process. The paper deals with these issues as a basis for application of EIA and draws several conclusions. Lo: UWI, Mona, Science Library.

Proceedings of the 1st annual conference on science and technology. Kingston, Scientific Research Council. Information and Coordination Division, 1989. 318-44. Co: 1st annual national conference on science and technology; Kingston, 27-29, Apr., 1987. Ab: At site estimates of the T-year flood based on short records are known to be unreliable. The preparation of flood plain maps requires estimates of these quantiles to determine the extent of inundation of the river banks. These maps will enable the mitigation of flood hazards by providing information for regulating new developments, flood control schemes, insurances and land use planning. For effective usage of these maps, it is imperative that estimates of the T-year flood be reliable. A Regional Flood Frequency analysis incorporates all the single site data in a homogenous region and reduces the standard error of the quantile estimate since this depends on the number of observations in the analysis. The Index Flood method was used to develop regional flood frequency or Growth Factor curves based on observed annual maximum instantaneous flows for the guaged catchments in Jamaica. An objective approach based on studies by S.E. Wiltshire (1985) enabled the demarcation of the island into homogenous regions (having similar at-site dimensionless frequency curves. At site estimates of the T-year flood are calculated as the product of the T-year growth factor multiplied by the mean flood (where the growth factor is the ratio of the annual maximum instantaneous flood to the mean flood) at the site. For guaged sites the hydrologic and meteorological characteristics of each drainage basin in a homogenous region are related to the observed mean flood by multiple linear regression and the best fitted model is chosen based on statistical test. Those regionalised regression curves are used to estimate the mean flood for unguaged sites and ultimately allow for estimation of the T-year flood for unguaged catchment.

Ab: When documents suffer water damage, the real disaster occurs if salvage operations do not start immediately. Drying procedures are explained in detail for printed materials, photographs, microfilm and reel films, as well as magnetic tapes. Concludes that every organization should incorporate guidelines on salvaging water damaged materials in their disaster preparedness and recovery plans particularly for irreplaceable materials so that they can be given priority if salvage operations have to be done.

This report comes in the wake of Hurricane Hugo, in September 1989 which caused damage to several areas in the Eastern Caribbean. Focuses on a programme developed to improve national and regional operations in emergency management. Shows the beneficiaries of this programme, who are subject to a wide range of natural and man made disasters. Outlines the issues addressed by this programme and gives their implications. Objective of the programme is to evaluate the activities related to Hugo with the intention of influencing regional policy in the establishment of a regional response mechanism.

Au: UNDP Ti: Forestry rehabilitation programme: project document. Pub: Kingston; UNDP; 1989. 23. Pr: UNDP; Jamaica. Government. Forestry Rehabilitation Programme. JAM/88/016/B/13/99. Ab: Hurricane Gilbert struck Jamaica on 12 September 1988, causing severe damage to the country's natural and commercial forests. The magnitude and severity of the forestry-related problems require immediate remedial action along with medium-term rehabilitation. This project aims to enable key agencies to carry out remedial and rehabilitative efforts in this sector, mitigate economic losses and lessen environmental degradation. Project outputs will include a detailed damage assessment, a work plan and time schedule for salvage and sanitation activities, fully equipped forest plantations, either salvaged or sanitized and a national Tropical Forestry Action Plan (TFAP) aimed at medium to long-term resource management.

Au: Gray, Calvin R. Ti: Role of meteorologists in disaster mitigation. Pub: Kingston; Jamaica. National Meteorological Service; 1989. 14. Co: Seminar on the effects of Hurricane Gilbert on the Scientific Agencies; Kingston, Jan 1989. Ab: The effectiveness of mitigation systems ultimately depends on the effectiveness of planning and response management at the district or local government level, notwithstanding the need for a central authority which may provide essential services associated with massive search and rescue relief operations. It is therefore essential that the National Meteorological Service and Meteorologists actively participate in major decisions pertaining to evacuation of shipping from ports, progressive closure of sea, air, road and rail transportation systems and power supplies, the equalization of reservoir and water storage, suspension of schools and commercial activity, evacuation procedures, requests for military assistance, emergency food, clothing and medical supplies. Each of these activities require special "meteorological briefings" to expand upon the brief content of official or broadcast warnings. This paper seeks to further highlight the key areas for meteorological advice and the resource needs to facilitate the establishment and implementation of these mitigation systems.

Ab: Hurricane Gilbert was the most powerful tropical cyclone ever recorded in the western hemisphere. This paper briefly describes its impact on the island of Jamaica, focussing on both the physical environment and national economy. It is suggested that the population invested Hurricane Gilbert with a personality. Anthropomorphism in general, and humour in particular provided a ritical social context and psychological prop to help relieve the anxiety and stress created in the wake of the disaster.

Addresses some of the fundamental problems facing informal settlements: low levels of employment; low levels of income; poorly constructed shelter; inadequate physical infrastructure; and insecure land tenure and how these problems affect the responses of these settlements. Examines the relief assistance given and the precautions taken during the rebuilding process to make dwellings more resistant to disaster.

Pub: Cave Hill; University of the West Indies, Cave Hill, CERMES; 1989. 13. Ab: Agriculture, a critical sector of the Caribbean islands economies, has been consistently devastated by natural hazards, particularly tropical storms and hurricanes. Yet inspite of its economic importance and repeated devastation, very little attention has been given to devising ways of mitigating hazard impacts on the sector. This paper illustrates the importance of the sector to the island economies, the levels of devastation experienced and makes suggestions as to how one may set about planning for agricultural loss reduction.
