Adopted January 3, 2006. Captured August 4, 2006.This Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan for Benton County, Oregon covers each of the major natural and human-caused hazards that pose risks to the County. The primary objectives of this Mitigation plan are to reduce the negative impacts of future disasters on the community: to enhance life safety, increase public awareness, protect natural systems, and build partnerships. [From the Plan] This Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan was developed through a regional partnership funded by the Federal Emergency Management Agency's (FEMA) Pre-Disaster Mitigation Competitive Grant Program. The Mid/Southern Willamette Valley Region grant was awarded to support the development of natural hazard mitigation plans for communities in the region. The county utilized a planning process, plan framework, and plan development support provided by the Oregon Natural Hazards Workgroup (ONHW) at the University of Oregon’s Community Service Center.14629856 bytesapplication/pdfen-USEmergency management -- Oregon -- Benton CountyNatural disasters -- Oregon -- Benton County -- PlanningFloods -- Oregon -- Benton CountySevere storms -- Oregon -- Benton County -- PlanningLandslides -- Oregon -- Benton CountyWildfires -- Oregon -- Benton County -- Prevention and control -- PlanningEarthquake hazard analysis -- Oregon -- Benton CountyVolcanic hazard analysis -- Oregon -- Benton CountyDam safety -- Oregon -- Benton CountyTerrorism -- Oregon -- Benton County -- PreventionBook
