Summary/abstract:
  • This report describes the results of an investigation and an interview survey of the industry along the Mississippi Gulf Coast following Hurricane Camille. The investigation covered public utilities; selected samples of the manufacturing, chemical processing, and food processing industries; and public works, including debris removal. The major topics covered during the interviews were hurricane plans and preparations, emergency actions during the hurricane, damage inflicted, and restoration activities. The results are examined from the viewpoint of their relationship to civil defense and restoration efforts following a nuclear disaster. Conclusions are drawn that relate to both hurricane and nuclear disasters. Recommendations are made on measures to reduce the effects of such disasters and on subjects warranting further study.

Summary/abstract:
  • The National Research Council has maintained the Committee on Natural Disasters--originally known as the Committee on Earthquake Inspection--since 1966. The goals of the committee are to collect perishable data on natural disasters while the data is still available, to provide conveniently available accounts of natural disasters, and to identify and recommend cases where more in-depth studies could improve engineering practice, preparedness, warning systems, public response, or recovery. At its annual meeting in November 1984 the committee decided that each year it should prepare a report presenting a generic analysis of one area of its work--postdisaster studies on earthquakes, hurricanes, tornadoes, floods, landslides, or volcanoes--as well as summarizing the committee's postdisaster study activities for the previous year. The report would be useful to committee members, potential team members, members of the Commission on Engineering and Technical Systems, and the committee's sponsors. This is the committee's first report to present a generic analysis of several recent postdisaster studies--those of Hurricanes Iwa, Alicia, and Diana. It also includes brief descriptions of the committee's other postdisaster study activities in 1984.
