ارزيابي ريسک سامانه‌هاي آبرساني شهري کشور در برابر تهديدات به‌ روش RAMCAP Risk Assessment for Water Supply Systems in Iran During Crises Using the RAMCAP Method

Journal Title: آب و فاضلاب - Year 2017, Vol 28, Issue 4

Abstract

Heavy damages might be inflicted upon national infrastructure due to a variety of disasters caused by natural events or human activities. One example of such vital infrastructure at risk is the water supply system. At the time of crises, the water supply system is expected to continue supplying water to citizens, or the crisis will be augmented. This warrants the potential threats and their effects on the system to be identified and evaluated in an attempt to determine the vulnerable systems and sites toward proper solutions. In this study, the assets and the associated threats of the water supply are identified followed by a vulnerability analysis. The RAMCAP method is then employed to determine values for the risks associated with each of the assets including dams, water storage systems, pumping stations, treatment plants, water wells, and building units. Methods are proposed to reduce these risks before a crisis occurs. In addition, basic threats due to air-missile and Cyber attacks are also considered.
