Planning for Climate Resilience:
learning from typhoon Mirinae
Typhoon Mirinae: 30 Oct-2 Nov 2009
• On the morning of 2 November 2009, tropical storm Mirinae, with wind speeds of 109 kph, makes landfall in Phu Yen province. It is the 11th tropical storm to hit Vietnam that year.
• Deputy Prime Minister Hoang Trung Hai issues disaster preparation instructions on 30 October. In Binh Dinh, schools are closed on 2 November and people are advised to prepare for the storm.
•Phu Yen, the province hardest hit by Mirinae, reports that floods and strong wind has claimed at least 78 lives. In Binh Dinh, 22 people are reported dead and 3 reported missing. In Khanh Hoa, further to the south, 14 deaths are reported.
• Between 2-3 November, 801 mm of rain falls in Van Canh, Binh Dinh.
• In late October, Bùi Minh Tăng , director of the Central Storm Forecasting Agency, announces that the storm is powerful, rapid and will produce up to 400 mm of rain in Central Vietnam.
• Provincial governments report a total of $280 million in damage to property.

Damage Assessment
Coastal fisheries, boats and tackle
$373,495 including $305,470 in damage in Dong Da and $68,025 in Nhon Binh. Damage to fish ponds accounted for 88 percent of the total.
Industrial zones
$10,432,171 in damage to industrial zones in Nhon Binh ($9,937,853), Bui Thi Xuan ($440,121) and Phuoc My ($36,392).
Housing
$1,343,430 in total damage to homes. 2,061 of the 2,302 homes damaged or destroyed during the flood were in Nhon Phu.
Dikes, roads and irrigation systems
$1,445,888. The largest losses were in Nhon Phu ($481,944) and Phuoc My ($472,370). Together, Nhon Phu and Phuoc My accounted for 67 percent of all damages to dikes, roads and irrigation systems.
Agriculture and livestock
$3,183,528. In Nhon Phu and Nhon Binh, loss of livestock and loss of rice in storage accounted for a majority of the $1,760,820 in damage. In Phuoc My, loss of livestock and damage to fruit trees accounted for a majority of the $647,388 in damage.
Forestry$2,708,023. 98 percent of the total damage occurred in Phuoc My, where 19 sq. km. of industrial forest was damaged or destroyed.

Floods and Farming
Historical Flood Pattern:With Few Barriers in the Flood Plain, Water Drained Quickly

agricultural villages agricultural villages fisheries villages
low roads low embankmentSeasonal floods generally
rose and fell gradually over a 8-12 hour period, often at night.
During severe and extreme floods, water could easily and quickly pass over the top of low roads.
Because settlements in the floodplain were few and concentrated, floodwater could spread out over a large area.
Slope of 8 meters in 8 kilometers from Van Ha to Thi Nai allowed water to drain quickly

Flooding in the lower Ha Thanh River occurs when when the flow of water in the riverbed is greater than 1,226 m3/second.
During the 2009 flood, river flow reached 3,328 m3/second.
Barriers in floodways and insufficiant drainage capacity raised the level of flooding.

The Area Plan for Nhon Binh proposes filling in roughly one third of the ward’s area.It also reduces the flood channel to a narrow area between Bridge No. 7 and 8, and Barrage No. 2.

Based on our
hydrological model, by
2050, under
conditions of Climate
Change and a Sea
Level Rise of 26 cm, a
storm similar to
Mirinae, which
produced floods
greater than 2m in

much deeper flooding.

If all the plans for Quy Nhon are implemented, floodways would be severely narrowed,
creating the potential for overtopping in newly urbanized areas,
worsening flooding in low areas of Dieu Tri and Tuy Phuoc.
increasing risks for people living in floodways, and
Tuy Phuoc
• Manage upstream threats
• Improve flood warning and the training of community leaders
• Restore and improve drainage in the Ha Thanh River floodplain.
• Limit new residential, industrial and infrastructure development in the floodplain of the Ha Thanh River.
