Abstract: More than 200 modern and old tannery units are now operating in the industry of Bangladesh. These are located mostly in the Hazaribagh area of Dhaka city. These tanneries are a source of massive pollution. Wastage of these industries are polluting the surrounded area including river Buriganga. These pollution is threatening for local resident people, indirectly total city and a major river. This study was based on an investigation of “Hazaribagh Tannery Area and Relations with - Economic, Environmental and Relocation Issues”. For this study, primary data were collected from different group related and non-related with tannery business of the area. The survey was conducted on Hazaribagh to identify the total environmental condition, tannery worker, owner and economic growth and relocations of this industry as well sufferings of general resident. From the survey results on tannery worker and local people most of the respondents said that both solid and liquid waste came out from tannery,

Abstract: Slip distribution model has been developed for 15th January 1934 Bihar-Nepal earthquake of Mw 8.1 has been developed through stochastic model. The spatial variability of slip on the rupture plane is simulated as a random field with correlation lengths depending on the magnitude of the earthquake. The source dimensions have been computed from the scaling laws of Wells and Coppersmith (1994) and Mai and Beroza (2000). The slip distribution has been obtained from spectral synthesis method of Iguzquiza and Olma (1993) for both the source dimension. The slip distribution of each of the 5 samples has been shown in form of contour plots. The average slip estimated using different source dimension from WC and MB are 8.15 m and 12.96 m respectively. The simulated slip models developed can be used to simulate the displacement time histories of the 1934 Bihar-Nepal earthquake which can be used in seismic hazard studies in future.
