9 2. Disasters in Japan -Floods Damage Statistics Survey Flood Damage Statistics Survey has been carried out every year since 1961 to estimate the actual damage caused by water-related disasters such as floods, landslides, storm surges, tsunamis, etc. to various general assets owned by individuals or corporate bodies (housings, household commodities, machineries for businesses, agricultural products), public infrastructure such as rivers, roads, etc. and assets for public services such as transportation, communication, etc. The survey provides basic data for presenting the need for and effectiveness of flood control measures. Damages to General Asset Number of damaged houses according to inundation depth and gradient, number of affected households, etc Damages to Public Services Physical damage, etc Damages to Infrastructure Cost for emergency rehabilitation, etc 8

10 2. Disasters in Japan -Floods Damage Statistics Survey Methodology of the Flood Damage Statistics Survey Flood Damage Statistics Survey is a general statistics survey based on the article 19 of the Statistics Act (approved by Minister for Internal Affairs and Communications). It is carried out by MLIT s Water and Disaster Management Bureau in collaboration with prefectures and municipalities. Occurrence of National Government water-related disaster (MLIT) Develop the guideline of flood damage statistics survey (coverage and procedure of the survey, survey format, fill-in guideline, etc.) -Aggregate the survey data -Calculate the damage -Compile and publish Flood Damage Statistics Prefectures General assets Public infrastructures Public Services Municipalities Municipalities Public Services Offices Submit within 45 days of disaster Prefectures occurrence Submit Submit Prefectures Aggregate, organize, and screen the survey data Submit -Upload the data to the DB server of Flood Damage Statistics Access to Flood Damage Statistics DB National Government (Regional Offices, etc.) Query and view the survey data 9

16 2. Disasters in Japan -Utilization of the Floods Damage Statistics Effectiveness of Flood Control Projects Levee construction, channel excavation and development of detention basins were carried out in Ikarashi River and Kariyata River of Shinano River System after the flood of July 2004 in order to prevent damages from future flooding. In July 2011, heavy rain with precipitation higher than that of 2004 by 40% was recorded, however damages were significantly reduced. Heavy Rain in Niigata and Fukushima in July 2004 Levees failed in Igarashi River and Kariyata River due to 13 days of heavy rains that started from the midnight of July Inundation occurred in a large extent. (damage reduction due to levee construction, river channel excavation, etc) Kariyata River Detention Basin Levee construction, channel excavation, straightening of channel, etc 6 basins developed as emergency measures after 2004 flood Detention basins and upstream dam played effective roles in reducing downstream water levels and prevented inundation.

19 2. Disasters in Japan -varied damages Suspended functions of medical facilities and the flooding of social welfare facilities - A public hospital in Toyooka, Hyogo Prefecture was flooded by Typhoon #23 of Scheduled surgery had to be postponed for five days, while two patients were transported to other hospitals by disaster prevention helicopters since dialysis treatment could not be provided. 1) - Junwakai Memorial Hospital in Miyazaki was inundated by 1.5 m of floodwater in Typhoon #14 of 2005, causing medical equipment, rooms and facilities on the ground floor to be submerged, along with the emergency power supply, disrupting all lifelines, even the securing of drinking water. It took 1.5 months to fully recover. 2) - In the Great East Japan Earthquake of 2011, there were confirmed cases of deaths caused by patients being unable to undergo sufficient dialysis treatment due to living in evacuation centers. 3) The state of the damage to Toyooka Hospital (parking lot) caused by the flooding of the Maruyama River as a result of Typhoon #23 of ) Damage to MRI equipment in the X-ray room of Junwakai Memorial Hospital as a result of the flooding of the Oyodo River as a result of Typhoon #14 of ) - In the Tokai Storm of 2000: The rehabilitation facility in a healthcare facility for the elderly in Nishibiwa-cho was flooded, even though efforts were made to carry as much office equipment and medication as possible upstairs to the 2nd floor. As it became isolated, food and fuel for the emergency generator were transported by JSDF helicopters. 6) 1) Typhoon #23 strikes the hospital.

20 2. Disasters in Japan -varied damages Adverse effects brought to the supply chains by disaster-stricken companies etc. If a large-scale disaster occurs, the shortage of intermediate products due to disaster-stricken companies, plants, offices etc. adversely affects the production activities nationwide in a chain-reaction manner. In case of the flood disasters which occurred in the Tokai area on September 11 and 12, 2000 The flood disasters in Tokai area, which spread over in other areas (Information searched through newspapers) * Supply chain: The connections among business operators involved in a series of processes from the raw material procurement to the delivery to consumers. In case of the Great East Japan Earthquake As the domestic semiconductor industry incurred the disaster, the relevant industries were adversely affected. Headquarters of Toyota Motor Corporation (Toyota City, Aichi Prefecture) The effects of disasters incurred by semiconductor-related industries Production shut off at 24 domestic plants (including 9 associated companies) Headquarters of Daihatsu Motor Co., Ltd. (Osaka Prefecture) Production resumed (on April 12, 2011) The damage to the suppliers and suppliers of suppliers often hampered the smooth procurement of parts and components. Production shut off at Kyoto Plant and Shiga Plant Production resumed (on March 19, 2011) The factors hampering the smooth procurement of raw materials, parts and components Production resumed in some lines (on April 18, 2011) Aisin Keikinzoku Co., Ltd.

21 3. Policy and project evaluation scheme in Japan 20

22 3. Policy and project evaluation -Background Policy evaluation addressed by the entire government Since April 2002, policy evaluation has been conducted based on the Government Policy Evaluations Act (Government Evaluation Act). Each Ministry In the capacity of planning and establishing policies Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications (MIC) In the capacity of an organization specializing in handling evaluations Prime Diet Minister Report annually Each Ministry The principle of self evaluation PLAN DO ACTION CHECK Publication of evaluation report People of Japan Coordination Send evaluation report Offer opinion and recommend action Commission on Policy Evaluation and Evaluation of Incorporated Administrative Agencies Survey and discuss Offer opinion MIC (Administrative Evaluation Bureau) Promotion of policy evaluation system Evaluation activities as an organization specializing in evaluations 21

23 3. Policy and project evaluation Structure Method of Policy Evaluation by MLIT (i) Policy assessment (Evaluate necessity, effectiveness, efficiency, etc. when introducing new policies) (ii) Policy check-up (Establish performance indexes and targets for each major policy target and evaluate) Policy evaluation method (iii) Policy review (iv) Individual public work project evaluation (In-depth analysis and evaluation of specific themes with strong citizen interest) Planning stage evaluation New project adoption stage evaluation Re-evaluation Ex-post evaluation 22

24 3. Policy and project evaluation Structure Policy assessment The policy assessment (prior evaluation) is a method to evaluate the planned programs to be newly adopted in terms of the following factors. - Objective - Necessity - Efficiency - Effectiveness Objectives Clearly specify the intensions of policies and the expected effects, and disclose the process of planning to the public. By intensively assigning budgets to the programs required by the public, thoroughly eliminate waste from the budget. (Example) - Drawing up the (tentatively called) 100 millimeter/h safety plan for assuring secure lives in anticipation of torrential downpours. - Promoting the measures against high tides and waves as emergency measures in anticipation of the sea level elevation due to global warming. Target programs The programs, attempts are made to adopt Those of the existing programs, attempts are made to revise, abolish, alleviate or extend Check the following items regarding the target programs. Specification of targets Necessity Specify the targets of objectives (policy targets, program targets, performance targets and their target values) By using the logical framework analysis procedure (logical analysis method), identify the objective necessity of programs and the logical process for achieving the targets. Logical framework analysis procedure (Logical analysis method) STEP1 Clearly indicate the gap between the target and the current status. STEP2 Analyze the cause of the gap. STEP3 STEP4 Efficiency Effectiveness Demonstrate that it is necessary to revise or improve the current system in order to achieve the target (= policy issues). Propose the specific measures and methods (=programs and projects) used for solving such policy issues. * Evaluate whether other social needs are met and the administration (government) is needed to take the responsibility. Demonstrate that the implementation of programs is more effective in terms of cost-benefit performance. Identify the effects gained by implementing the programs and the contribution to the achievement of the targets. 23

25 3. Policy and project evaluation Method (i) Inundation simulation Undertake inundation analysis, assuming floods of different probability scales. Obtain details of flood-prone area without improvement and with improvement. * Probability scale 1/5 Without Anticipated flood prone area analysis result without improvement With Anticipated flood prone area analysis result with improvement Dam L2 Block R2 Block L1 Block R1 Block A flood calculation is to be carried out for each flood block for each probability scale. A downstream block flood calculation is to be carried out, taking into account overflows and spills of the upstream blocks to estimate the maximum inundation damage for each block. (ii) Computation of anticipated amount of damage Based on the flood simulation results, calculate the anticipated amount of damage for each probability scale. Inundation area increases with probability scale 1/10 1/20 1/30 1/50 1/70 1/100 1/150 Dam Dam Probability scale: indicates the probability of the occurrence of floods, with 1/100 representing a flood that occurs once in one hundred years Anticipated amount of damage without improvement Anticipated amount of damage with improvement 24

Policy and project evaluation Method Image of Computation of Reduced Damage Using mesh data (ground elevation, asset, slope, etc.) and inundation analysis, calculate the amount of inundation damage for each mesh. The amount of damage will vary with the conditions of the flood, such as the depth of water, etc. In addition, the assumed mitigated amount of damage (benefit) is obtained through the difference between [with] and [without] project implementation. Without improvement project L2ブロック L1ブロック Inundation area and water depth reduced by river improvement With improvement project L2ブロック L1ブロック R2ブロック R1ブロック River Improvement R2ブロック Channel excavation, embankment strengthening, etc. [Total R1, R2, L1 and L2] [Total R1, R2, L1 and L2] 9 x 0.3 bil. Yen = 2.7 bil. yen 6 x 0.5 bil. yen = 3.0 bil. yen 4 x 1.0 bil. yen = 4.0 bil. yen 3 x 2.0 bil. Yen = 6.0 bil. yen Assumed damage total:15.7 bil. yen Inundation water depth 0 to 0.5 m 0.5 to 1.0 m 1.0 to 3.0 m 3.0 to 5.0 m R1ブロック 8 x 0.3 bil. Yen = 2.4 bil. yen 3 x 0.5 bil. yen = 1.5 bil. yen 3 x 1.0 bil. yen = 3.0 bil. yen 0 x 2.0 bil. Yen = 0.0 bil. yen Assumed damage total: 6.9 bil. yen Embankment strengthening 15.7 billion yen Assumed mitigated damage amount = billion yen = 8.8 billion yen 6.9 billion yen 25

27 3. Policy and project evaluation Method 治 水 経 済 調 査 マニュアル P77-78 Computation of Cost-Benefit Ratio Cost-Benefit Ratio B/C =Total Benefit / Total Cost Both benefit and cost are to be calculated with the time of evaluation as the reference point in time, with the improvement period + 50 years set as the period subject to evaluation. Convert benefit and cost to net present value using the year of evaluation as a reference point, and the gross total of the benefits and costs after conversion to present value shall become the total benefits (B) and total costs (C). Image of total costs (C) and total benefits (B) Benefit Benefit converted to net present value Cost Cost converted to net present value * For dams, etc., the benefit is only generated after completion of the facilities, so there are no benefits during its improvement period. Benefit (B) Cost (C) Point of evaluation Total benefits (B) ***yen Total costs (C) ***yen Improvement period Completion of the facilities(completion of dams, flood prevention facilities(levees, etc.)) Evaluation period after completion of the facilities(50 years) Year Period subject to evaluation 26
