Mitigation planning
Introduction
Environmental management plan is the document that, in detail, establishes the necessary actions to prevent, mitigate, control, compensate and correct the possible negative environmental effects or impacts caused in the development of a project, work or activity; It also includes follow-up, evaluation and monitoring plans, and contingency plans. The content of the plan may be regulated differently in each country.
The operational plan contemplates the execution of environmental and other practices in order to comply with environmental legislation and guarantee that established standards are achieved.
Mitigation plan
Set of measures and works to be implemented before the occurrence of a disaster, in order to reduce the impact on the system components. OPS
A mitigation plan, also called a risk plan or risk response plan, is a document that records the similarity of risky events that will occur on a project and reduces the impact of said events if they were to occur. Options and actions are developed in a mitigation plan to improve project opportunities and also threats to project objectives are reduced to "below an acceptable threshold."
An example of this is the situation that occurred in Mexico at the end of April 2009, what virologists in Mexico considered case zero was identified, in an eight-year-old child, in a small community near the city of Perote, in the state of Veracruz; that child survived the infection and the diagnosis was made retrospectively. Given that at the same time there were numerous cases of serious respiratory diseases, in the first week of May the health authorities imposed the health contingency at level 5 with the strictly necessary measures to limit the spread and reduce the imminent influenza epidemic, measures that had the desired result; However, the A/H1N1 virus has not been eliminated so far and the risk of recurrence remains.
Environmental management plan
Theoretical and operational document that determines the actions that must be carried out in a given space, to guarantee the sustainable use of natural resources and the improvement of the quality of life of the human populations that inhabit it.
