  1. PHYSICAL HAZARDS OF GLACIERS AND PREVENTION PROPOSALS

  2. Deglaciationis an ongoing process that has been increasing since the end of the Little Ice Age, about the year 1860. As important consequences of deglaciation, we have the decrease in glacier surfaces and the formation of hanging glaciers and lakes, many with high levels of physical vulnerability.

  17. SAFETY PREVENTION WORKS IN ORDER TO AVOID GLACIER CATHASTOPHIES, SEVERAL SAFETY PREVENTION WORKS WERE BUILT SPECIALLY IN THE CORDILLERA BLANCA - PERU

  18. SAFETY PREVENTION WORKS • REDUCE THE WATER LEVEL • BUILT DAMS OR TUNELS

  19. 34 SAFETY PREVENTION WORKS WERE BUILT IN THE CORDILLERA BLANCA Towns / Cities Safety Prevention Works

  20. INSTITUTIONAL POLICIES Peruvian Case

  21. From the mid-40 can distinguish the shared management of the Glaciology and Lakes Security Program of in 3 principal stages: Ministry of Development and Public Works 1945-1950: Instituto Geológico del Perú (IGP) 1951-1970: Comisión de Lagunas de la Cordillera Blanca (CLCB) 1966-1973: Corporación Peruana del Santa (CPS) 1973-1977 : Electroperú (EP1) 1977-1978: Instituto de Geología y Minería (IMIN) 1978-1980: Instituto de Geología Minería y Metalurgia (IMET) 1981-1991: Empresa de Electricidad Norte Medio HIDRANDINA (HIDRA) 1991-1999: Electroperú (EP2) 1999-2010: Instituto Nacional de Recursos Naturales (INRENA) 2010-2012: Autoridad Nacional del Agua (ANA) Ministry of Mining and Energy Ministry of Agriculture

  22. PROPOSAL TocreateanOrganismof Glaciology and Safety Lake ProgramfortheAndeanRegionwith base in Huaras City – Cordillera Blanca

  23. GROUNDS OF THE PROPOSAL • The objective of the studies of glaciers has two aspects, one oriented towards the assessment and monitoring of glaciers for mitigation and reduction of surface water. The second aspect is related to the hazards and the development of actions for safety matters. • Related to the glacier research, there is a lack of management policies, for being oriented basically only towards the reaserch and monitoring of glaciers with hydric resources matter, not taking in consideration the complementary portion of hazards and prevention works against the glacier disasters.

  24. Need for specialists in the public sector in multidisciplinary specialties for glacier research, hazards and safety works. Need particularly in the Latin American region to have a Permanent Agency specializing in Glacier Research, Hazard Management and Implementation of safety prevention works.
