 4. FLOODING – WARNINGS AND ACTIONS TO BE TAKEN

4.1 It should be aware that when the continuous long blast of siren Warning Signal is issued, it
implies that there will be flooding in some low-lying and poorly drained areas. The
continuous long blast of siren Warning Signals indicate more serious flooding which could
cause major disruption.
4.2 Upon receipt of a notice of a flood alert or a report of flooding, staff of MAPA concerned
particularly the Forman will inquire the EHS team for obtaining a better understanding of
the situation and contacting EHS and Site Engineers of low-lying areas to give warning. The
Forman will in turn alert their workers of the case of flooding.
4.3 In the event that severe flooding is likely or is occurring in a particular area, the relevant
rescue team should be activated and the TYPSA should be notified of the situation. As
flooding is more likely after a prolonged period of heavy rainfall, EHS and Engineers
concerned should take into account area situations and weather conditions before deciding
to step down any emergency response, even after the cancellation of severe weather
warning signals.
4.4 Dewatering of flooded pits, valve chambers will be performed immediately as soon as the
flood subsides.
