An overview frames the challenge, providing an itemization of the damage, the casualties, the insurance costs the total numbers of homes, businesses, industries (even coal mines were adversely affected) damaged in the cyclone. There is an undercurrent not simply of recovery, but also an objective to guide Queensland that it might be rebuilt better than it was before. The Reconstruction initiative is divided into three sections: first being to frame the problem, put the crisis from the cyclone into the proper context. A blow-by-blow account of the path taken by the floodwaters is given, to further put the damage into perspective. But in addition Australia being Australia, the official paper also calls upon the aboriginal community further assistance and support in the reconstruction endeavor. Sixth principle lines of reconstruction will receive specialized attention: the human and social costs, economic damage, environmental damage, building recovery, transportation infrastructure, and there will be a community liaison effort. The disaster occurred between July and December 2010, the progression of the cyclone including its origin and molting strength as it traveled from ocean to land gathering its power is followed. Its effects on the native water supplies and the cities most immediately impacted are described. The document appears to be intended mainly for government officials. In all honesty, the document is too long for casual consumption by the public and would only be useful for those whose time, and effort will be spent in the recovery. Section 2, outlines the legal responsibilities for the reconstruction Authority. “Priority of Reconstruction effort will be directed by The Authority through a consultative process that is guided by the operation Queenslander construct and informed by community, local government, industry and both state and Commonwealth requirements.” P.12 Much of the recommendations must flow from the local, ground level. It is here that real people are forced to make life and death decisions based on immediate, community need. While a government committee must decide large-scale resource allocation, the decisions must begin with people on the ground. An confident expert must be on the ground with the experience to make the right call, and the will to do so quickly, as Klein (1998) describes on page 2. There's no time for a committee vote when disaster or accident victims are bleeding out. Real people on the local level are the ones that must act quickly, and decisively, and them pass on their recommendations to higher administrators. (Klein, 1998 p.2) Competent professionals are needed capable of recognition-primed decision-making. where there is no debate. simply action borne of experience and training. A situation in which a problem is recognized, rather than options weighed. (Klein, 1998 p.16) To support this kind of decision-making in a crisis, it seems wise to begin the information-recommendation process at the level of individual communities, then filtering up towards higher agencies. SUMMARY The sort of language used in operation Queensland makes it is the kind of document that would be employed when lawyers and government administrators must be assigned and delegated responsibilities. Regular citizens should find the document accessible, but few would have need to wade through it unless they were directly involved in the efforts described herein.
