Abstract
In coordination with a consultant from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), the
University of Oregon’s Community Planning Workshop (CPW) researched four post‐disaster
recovery plans (PDRPs) developed by select communities in the United States. The purpose of this
research was to find innovative post‐disaster plans that incorporate effective strategies for recovery
with the intent of evaluating strategies for providing credit for such efforts as part of the
Community Rating System (CRS).
