The A-N PDC is undergoing an update of the Hazard Mitigation Plan. The survey (https://arcg.is/1LvKe12) is a crucial step in ensuring that the Eastern Shore is prepared for potential natural and man-made disasters. To achieve a statistically significant sample size, it is essential to reach a broad audience.
This collaborative effort will help gather diverse opinions and insights, forming a comprehensive understanding of the community's needs and concerns. The feedback will play a pivotal role in shaping effective mitigation strategies that protect lives and property.
WHAT IS A HAZARD MITIGATION PLAN?
A hazard mitigation plan is a strategic framework designed
to reduce or eliminate the risks and impacts associated with
natural or man-made disasters.
The current plan addresses the following natural hazards:
- Coastal Erosion
- Drought & Extreme Heat
- Flooding
- Hurricanes & Thunderstorms
- Winter Storms
This survey with your input will help us address them effectively.
