Disaster Mitigation is the cornerstone of emergency management. It’s the ongoing effort to lessen the impact disasters have on people and property. Mitigation involves keeping homes away from floodplains, engineering bridges to withstand earthquakes, creating and enforcing effective building codes to protect property from hurricanes and more.

1)Gather emergency supplies for your home and car.

2)Avoid driving through flooded areas and standing water.

3)Place generator and any gasoline-powered engine outside at least 20 feet from any window, door, or vent.

4)Helipads should be constructed at regular intervals through highways.

5)Helipads should be along highways; sites for air landing should also be available for vulnerable locations such as schools, playgrounds and so on.

6)Support should be provided to amateur radio volunteers at normal times so that they can effectively handle the cyclone.

7)Maintenance of embankments should be crafted with fine workmanship to mitigate flooding risk during cyclones.

Answer:

Disaster management mitigation is all about reducing or completely eliminating the risks and impacts involved at the time of disaster. This means that you have to be aware of taking all possible measures that will prove helpful in reducing the hazards at the time of occurrence of any possible disaster.

So at the time of such events, it is obvious that you need to try and gather as much as your emergency supplies as possible. The supplies should always be maintained at a safer place that is far away from the source of flooding river bed.

In case the authorities have issued orders to evacuate any place due to flood or cyclones then you need to start acting immediately without overlooking it.

It is also advisable to avoid driving within the cycle affected areas or flooding water. If possible you should also try and carry medicines and food supply with you at the time of evacuation.
