Flood Hazard Mitigation

Hazard Mitigation Plan

The purpose of hazard mitigation is to reduce loss from future natural disasters.
Storms and other natural disasters can cause loss of life and damage to buildings and
infrastructure, with devastating consequences to a community’s economic, social, and
environmental well-being. Planning for future hazards represents an important step
towards reducing loss in a community, and many develop a local (or “single jurisdiction”)
Hazard Mitigation Plan.
