Regional Hazard Mitigation Plan

Regional Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan

The 2012 Regional Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan for all localities in the Thomas Jefferson Planning District has been approved by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), all local governments in the Planning District, and the Thomas Jefferson Planning District Commission. The purpose of the plan is to help our communities take action to prepare for natural disasters beforehand, thus reducing loss of life and property damage when they do occur. Implementation of the action items in the plan will be in effect for the next five years, and a Hazard Mitigation Working Group will convene annually to assess progress toward meeting the goals of the plan.
