摘要:

Ad hocinvestments in structural flood control measures and continuing high disaster assistance payments by both senior levels of government have often failed to reduce the damage sustained due to floods in Canada. The national Hood Damage Reduction Program, undertaken by the federal government in conjunction with the provinces, has a new comprehensive approach. This joint program emphasizes the non‐structural means of reducing flood damages over the long term but also allows for structural measures where these offer the best solution for existing development in the flood plain. The historical and constitutional context, the rationale and details of the program and its success to date are outline

摘要:

SUMMARYThis review of incentives to evacuate is meaningful largely in the context of planning for and managing the consequences of the impact of riverine floods. Of course, incentives do not constitute an emergency plan. At best, they should be seen as suggestions for structuring some elements of a plan. Furthermore, the enumeration of incentives presented here is meant to be suggestive rather than exhaustive. A primary objective of this paper has been to underscore the importance of advance planning in coping with hazards and to argue that, even though limited, existing research can be productively used in the planning process.The incentives described here are based upon or drawn from empirical research on people's performance under flood disaster conditions. This reflects the view that it is important to build emergency planning around people's known reaction patterns. Too often emergency plans which are administratively devised turn out to be based upon misconceptions of how people react (cf. Drabek and Stephenson, 1971, p. 202; Dyneset al.,1972, p. 31) and, therefore, potentially create more difficulties than they solve. One must be cautioned, however, that although our data indicate that peoplesaythey would support the idea of various evacuation incentives examined here, these are attitudinal data and not performance data. Thus, the real test of evacuation incentives lies in their implementation and in evaluation data on pilot programs which, unfortunately, do not presently exist. The outlook for the feasibility of developing and utilizing evacuation incentives appears to be positive, though, judging from responses to our interviews. In the final analysis, it would appear to be wise to develop emergency plans which guide and channel citizen actions into complementary and productive protection behavior patterns. The present discussion of incentives to evacuate is intended to encourage data‐based emergency plannin
