'$TA ,' . 8F` JEFFE SON COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS i t Kat lee er, r t � i ATTEST-,, ,{, �" Da ull v , Mem er rea� lyn .) 4A ery Kate, Member Deputy Clerk of the Board Consent Agenda JEFFERSON COUNTY BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS AGENDA REQUEST TO: Board of County Commissioners Philip Morley, County Administrator FROM: Lynn Sterbenz, Director, Department of Emergency Management DATE: January 23, 2017 SUBJECT: Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazards Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) STATEMENT OF ISSUE: The Jefferson County Department of Emergency Management, on behalf of Jefferson County, the City of Port Townsend and eighteen other Special Purpose Districts coordinated development of a multi -district Hazard Mitigation Plan (Plan). This plan has been submitted to and approved by the State of Washington Military Department, Emergency Management Division. Upon adoption by all participating jurisdictions, the plan will be submitted to FEMA for final approval. ANALYSIS/STRATEGIC GOALS/PRO'S and CON'S: The All Hazards Mitigation Plan is a collaborative process between the City of Port Townsend and Jefferson County. It contains an analysis of hazards, assessment or risks and vulnerabilities, and description of the manner in which mitigation is planned and carried out. It identifies goals, objectives and recommended actions to reduce of prevent injury and damaged caused by natural hazard events. The plan assembles a number of existing hazard reduction methodologies into a single overall strategy as a requirement of the Hazard Mitigation Act of 2000. FISCAL IMPACT/COST BENEFIT ANALYSIS.: Without this plan the participating local entities would not be eligible for a variety of disaster recovery programs and grants. Most strategies identified in the existing plan are already in effect. Recommendations made in the plan are contingent upon the availability of resources to carry them out. The plan must be review annually, and updated every five years. The revision will be due in 2021. This review and revision process is included in the Emergency Management work plan. Because this is a joint plan, planning responsibility is shared with loaned staff from the City of Port Townsend. RECOMMENDATION: Adopt the Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazards Mitigation Plan (Revised 2016) as the official hazards mitigation plan for Jefferson County, and which repeals and replaces the plan adopted by Resolution 21-10 on June 28, 2010.

Combined, the various sections of this plan work together to create a document that guides the mission to reduce vulnerability and minimize loss from future natural hazard events. The structure of this plan enables people to use only that portion of the plan that is of interest to them and/or pertains to their needs. It also allows local government to review and update specific sections as new data becomes available. New data can be easily incorporated, resulting in a natural hazards mitigation plan that remains current and relevant to the needs of the citizens of Jefferson County. The Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan is organized into eleven sections: Preamble: contains the Table of Contents, Acknowledgements, Distribution List, and the Promulgation List for the document. Plan Revisions Summary: Summarizes the updates made in the 2016 revision Plan Review Crosswalk contains a cross-reference grid that ties the Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000, and 44 CFR Part 201— Mitigation Planning, Interim Final Rule to the contents of this plan. Executive Summary contains a summary of the plan and a five-year action plan matrix. Section I contains the introduction and an overview of the planning process. Section II contains information regarding the various natural and man-made hazards that can affect Jefferson County. This section is also known as the Hazard Identification & Vulnerability Analysis (HIVA). Section III contains multi jurisdictional community profile information as well as information regarding multi- jurisdiction/multi-hazard mitigation measures and a listing of multi -jurisdictional mitigation strategies and projects suggested by stakeholders and citizens as part of the public process associated with the development of this plan. Section IV contains jurisdiction -specific and special purpose district specific information as well as vulnerability assessment information for each jurisdiction and special purpose district that has participated in the hazard mitigation planning process. Section V contains the mitigation strategies of each jurisdiction and special purpose district that has participated in the hazard mitigation planning process Section VI contains the mitigation issues of coordinating agencies that impact Jefferson County's plan. Section VII contains the various appendices to the plan. These include copies of the adoption resolutions, frequently asked questions, acronyms, and references for sources of information. Vs.5 xviii November 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) 2016 Plan Revisions Summary Vs. 5 1 November 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) This Page Intentionally Blank Vs. 5 2 November 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) 2016 Plan Revisions Summary Background The Jefferson County City of Port Townsend Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan (the Plan) was originally written and adopted in 2004 and updated and readopted in 2009, as required by law. The mitigation planning regulation at 44 CFR 201.6(d)(3) states: A local jurisdiction must review and revise its plan to reflect changes in development, progress in local mitigation efforts, and changes in priorities, and resubmit it for approval within five (5) years in order to continue to be eligible for mitigation project grant funding. The following updates reflect the 2016 review and revision process reflected in the Plan and submitted to the Washington State Hazard Mitigation Office for review. Each participating organization was provided with turn -around documents that detailed their organization profile and goals that were submitted in 2015 and 2016. They were asked to review them against their current situations, and update them to reflect current plans, documents and policies. The updated turn- around documents were then returned to the core writing team to be incorporated into the overall Plan. Revisions Overall — Due to the size of the final Plan, only one master copy and one copy for the State Hazard Mitigation Office will be printed unless otherwise requested. All participants and interested parties will receive the Plan in electronic format on a CD, unless specifically requested otherwise.

The Plan provides a list of activities that may assist Jefferson County in reducing risk and preventing loss from future natural hazard events. The action items address multi -hazard issues, natural hazards from avalanche, drought, earthquake, fire, flood, landslide, severe storm, tsunami, and volcano, as well as man-made hazards that are significant to Jefferson County entities. The Plan Organization: The Plan contains a five-year plan matrix, background on the purpose and methodology used to develop the plan, a profile of Jefferson County, sections on the most threatening natural and man-made hazards that can occur within the County (avalanche, drought, earthquake, flood, landslide, severe local storm, tsunami, volcano, and wildfire, power outage, etc.), profiles and mitigation activities of special jurisdictions, mitigation issues with coordinating agencies and jurisdictions that impact Jefferson County, and the appendices. The sections are delineated as follows: Executive Summary contains a summary of the plan and a five-year action plan matrix. Section I contains the introduction and an overview of the planning and participation process Section II contains information regarding the most serious natural hazards within the State that can affect Jefferson County, and additional man-made hazards that are of concern to Jefferson County. New this year is recognition of possible effects of predictable climate change. Section III contains multi jurisdictional community profile information as well as information regarding multi-jurisdiction/multi-hazard mitigation measures and a listing of multi jurisdictional mitigation strategies and projects suggested by stakeholders and citizens as part of the public process associated with the development of this plan.

Vs. 5 13 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) The Plan Development Participants: The Plan is the result of a collaborative effort among Jefferson County citizens, public agencies, the private sector, and regional and state organizations. Public participation played a key role in development of goals and action items. Interviews were conducted with stakeholders across the county, and public meetings were held to include Jefferson County residents in the process of developing the plan. Where possible, Hazard Mitigation planning was brought into workshops and classes hosted by stakeholders for related topics. A detailed recounting of the planning process is contained in Section I. New this year is the use of both Neighborhood Emergency Preparedness (NPREP) groups and an online capability for citizens to review the document and make comments. The Plan Mission: The primary mission of the Plan is to promote sound public policy designed to protect citizens, critical facilities, infrastructure, private property, the county's economy and environment from natural hazards. This can be achieved by increasing public awareness, documenting the resources for risk reduction and loss -prevention, and identifying activities to guide the County towards building a safer community. The secondary mission of the Plan is to provide the foundation for creating an "All Hazards Mitigation Plan" that effectively addresses issues of man-made hazards in addition to natural hazards. The Plan Goals: The Plan goals describe the overall direction that Jefferson County and Port Townsend agencies, organizations, special districts, private industry and citizens can take toward mitigating risk from natural hazards. The goals are the guiding principles from the broad direction of the mission statement to the specific recommendations of the action items. (1) Protect Life and Property • Implement activities that assist in protecting lives by making homes, businesses, infrastructure, critical facilities, and other property more resistant to losses from natural hazards. • Improve hazard assessment information to make recommendations encouraging preventive measures for existing development in areas vulnerable to natural hazards • Enhance Jefferson County Neighborhood Emergency Response Teams to provide citizens from all areas of Jefferson County with the information and tools they need to help them, their families, and their neighbors in the hours and days immediately following an emergency or disaster event. • Encourage homeowners and businesses to purchase insurance coverage for damages caused by natural hazards. • Encourage homeowners and businesses to take preventative actions in areas that are especially vulnerable to natural hazards.

Photo by Bob Hamlin Vs. 5 16 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) The Five -Year Action Plan Matrix: The action items are a listing of activities in which county and city agencies and jurisdictions and citizens can be engaged to reduce risk. Each action item includes an estimate of the timeline for implementation. Short-term action items (ST) are activities that may be implemented with existing resources and authorities within one to three years. Long-term action items (LT) may require new or additional resources or authorities, and may take between one and five years to implement. Ongoing action items (OG) are continuous activities such as the annual review and update of the mitigation plan, itself. The action items are organized within the following matrix, which lists all of the multi -hazard and hazard -specific action items included in the mitigation plan. These action items are the culmination of the data collection, research and analysis, and public participation process leading up to this plan. The Action Plan Matrix organizes this information into a management tool to be used in implementing the actions. The matrix includes the following information for each action item: • Natural Hazard ID. A unique identifier within the document that tells the type of action item (short-term or long-term), the type of hazard, and the action item number for that action in the plan. • Action Item. A description of the action to be taken. • Champions. The organizations or individuals who are taking the lead responsibility in making the action happen. This can be the public agency with regulatory responsibility to address natural hazards, or that is willing and able to oversee activity, implementation, monitoring, and evaluation. Champions may include local, county, regional public and private agencies, businesses or individuals that are capable of or willing to be responsible for implementing activities and programs. • Timeline. Action items include both short-term and long-term activities. The time -line attempts to put a gross estimate of the time it will take to implement the action given the availability of resources needed. Some items will be an ongoing effort that effectively requires a lifestyle change or permanent allocation of resources, while other items may be events or programs with specific accomplishments by a specific time. • Plan Goals. This cell of the matrix contains the item numbers of the plan goals from the previous page that this activity seeks to meet. • Action Item Lifecycle Stage. Each activity that is not continuous has a life cycle that it goes through: action item concept, public input & planning, funding, execution of action item, adoption or implementation, maintenance, monitor and evaluate. This grid within the matrix provides a visual quick -reference to progress on a given activity. Life Cycle Stages include: (1) Action Item Concept - Indicates a concrete idea or plan has been developed to take forward in the process. (2) Public Input & Planning — Indicates that the process is at the stage where it is collecting public input and planning, if appropriate. (3) Funding — Indicates that funds are being sought to implement the action as appropriate. This can be from budget, grants, donations, etc. (4) Execution of Action Item — May be drafting of a report, adoption of policy resolutions, implementation of building projects, etc. (5) Adoption or Implement — Adoption of resolutions to implement plans or approve projects. (6) Maintenance, Monitor, and Evaluate - Review, evaluate and maintain the project or plan as defined by the project charter.

The plan maintenance process includes a schedule for monitoring and evaluating the Plan annually and producing a plan revision every five years. This section includes an explanation of how Jefferson County and the City of Port Townsend intend to incorporate the mitigation strategies outlined in this plan into existing planning mechanisms such as the Jefferson County Comprehensive Plan. Plan Adoption The Board of Jefferson County Commissioners and the Port Townsend City Council will be responsible for adopting the Plan for their respective jurisdictions. Special Districts participating in the Plan must have their own governing body adopt the Plan as the official plan of the special district. Coordinating agencies, jurisdictions, and entities will be responsible for adopting their own plans within their own jurisdictions. Coordinating Body A Jefferson County Hazard Mitigation Advisory Committee will be responsible for coordinating implementation of Plan action items and undertaking the formal review process. Convener The Board of Jefferson County Commissioners and the Port Townsend City Council will adopt the Plan, and the Hazard Mitigation Advisory Committee will take responsibility for Plan implementation. The County Administrator will serve as convener to facilitate the Hazard Mitigation Advisory Committee meetings, and will assign tasks such as updating and presenting the Plan to members of the committee. Plan implementation and evaluation will be a shared responsibility among all Natural Hazard Advisory Committee Members. Implementation through Existing Programs Jefferson County and the City of Port Townsend address statewide planning goals and legislative requirements through GMA, CRS, and NFIP requirements, capital improvement plans, and building codes. The Plan provides a series of recommendations that are closely related to the goals and objectives of these existing planning programs. Local plans, such as Emergency Response Plans, that have sections related to Hazard Mitigation will be coordinated with the Plan so that requirements of the Plan are incorporated into local guiding documents and ordinances, and vice versa. Economic Analysis of Mitigation Projects The Federal Emergency Management Agency's approaches to identify costs and benefits associated with natural hazard mitigation strategies or projects fall into two general categories: benefit/cost analysis (BCA) and cost-effectiveness analysis. Where appropriate, proposed activities will be evaluated using the BCA tools and Vs. 5 51 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) HazusMH modeling software, along with empirical data to assess whether or not the mitigation strategy is justified. Formal Review Process The Plan will be evaluated on an annual basis to determine the effectiveness of programs, and to reflect changes in land development or programs that may affect mitigation priorities. The convener will be responsible for contacting the Hazard Mitigation Advisory Committee members and organizing the annual meeting. Committee members will be responsible for monitoring and evaluating the progress of the mitigation strategies in the Plan. Continued Public Involvement Jefferson County and the City of Port Townsend are dedicated to involving the public directly in the continual review and updates of the Hazard Mitigation Plan. Copies of the plan will be cataloged and kept at all of the public libraries in the county. The existence and location of these copies will be publicized on the Jefferson County and the City of Port Townsend websites along with the Plan, itself. This site will also contain an email address and phone number to which people can direct their comments and concerns on an ongoing basis. Public hearings will be held concomitant with the evaluation of the program so that changes in needs and perceptions can be addressed and updated in the Plan as appropriate. The plan also includes the contact information for the county department responsible for keeping track of public comments on the Plan.

Photographs, journal entries, and newspapers from the mid to late 1800's to the present show that the residents of the area have dealt with flooding, severe windstorms, harsh winter storms, wildfires, earthquakes, landslides, and even indirectly from volcanic activity. Although there were fewer people in the area many years ago, the natural hazards did at times, adversely affect the lives of those who depended on the land and climate conditions for food and welfare. As the population of the county increased, the exposure to natural hazards created a greater risk than experienced historically. With an ever -continuing growth in population, the development of natural lands, and advancing climate change, the impact of these natural hazards will continue to escalate. Jefferson County s rural setting, combined with its mild climate and close proximity to the waters of Puget Sound and the mountains and forests of the Olympics create an almost ideal locale that draws people to live here. However, the potential impacts of natural hazards typical to the area make the population, business community, and the environment vulnerable to natural disaster situations. Jefferson County is subject to flooding, severe storms, landslides, earthquakes, wildfires, and volcanic activity and to a much lesser extent, avalanche, drought, and tsunami. It is impossible to predict exactly when these disasters will occur, or the extent to which they will affect the county, but occur they will — it is only a matter of time. However, with careful planning and collaboration among public agencies, private sector organizations, as well as citizens and businesses within the community, it is possible to minimize the losses that can result from these natural disasters. What is natural hazard mitigation? Natural hazard mitigation is the development and implementation of activities designed to reduce or eliminate losses resulting from catastrophic natural events. This Plan identifies all major hazards affecting the participants, but focuses on developing strategies for dealing with the natural hazards. Why develop a natural hazards mitigation strategy? Developing a revised mitigation strategy for Jefferson County completes the process of planning that began with the 2015 Jefferson County Hazard Identification and Vulnerability Assessment (HIVA), which is incorporated in the Plan. This report serves to establish a foundation for coordination and collaboration among local agencies, jurisdictions, and the citizens of Jefferson County in addition to providing a basis for identifying mitigation strategies and future mitigation projects as a means to assist in meeting the requirements of various federal assistance programs. The rising cost of responding to and recovering from natural disasters has led to an increased interest in identifying effective ways to reduce the vulnerability to natural hazards and the disasters these hazards can create. Natural hazard mitigation plans assist communities in identifying the hazards that could impact them, determining the vulnerability of the community to these hazards, and identifying mitigation strategies to prevent or reduce the impacts these hazards pose to the community through a coordinated, multi -jurisdictional approach. Vs. 5 55 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) What are the benefits of hazard mitigation? • Save lives and property— communities can save lives and reduce property damage from natural hazards through mitigation actions, such as moving families and their homes out of harm's way or by limiting development and/or regulating the type of construction or structures allowed in certain areas. • Reduce vulnerability to future hazards — by having a mitigation strategy in place, communities are better prepared to take the proper steps that will permanently reduce the risk of future losses. • Facilitate post -disaster funding —by identifying mitigation strategies and projects before the next disaster, Jefferson County communities will be in a better position to obtain post -disaster funding because much of the background work necessary for funding assistance will already be in place. Who does the natural hazards mitigation plan benefit? The Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend Hazard Mitigation Plan was developed, written, and adopted as a multi jurisdictional all -hazards mitigation plan for the benefit of the incorporated municipalities, various special purpose districts, and the unincorporated rural areas of Jefferson County. It is anticipated that a large number of county special purpose districts will also adopt this plan in order to benefit from future hazard mitigation funding. The information contained in this plan is applicable countywide and serves to provide the framework for natural hazard mitigation within Jefferson County. Much has already been gained in simply developing this plan and establishing the basic mitigation strategies that have been incorporated into this document. It is hoped that the spirit of inter jurisdictional cooperation that has begun with this planning effort will continue in the years to come thereby providing further benefits to all jurisdictions and agencies within the county as well as the citizens these jurisdictions and agency serve. Furthermore, the Plan was developed following the process set forth in the Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000 as well as the requirements of the National Flood Insurance Program Community Rating System. By doing so, it is anticipated that the citizens living in those jurisdictions within Jefferson County that participate in the Community Rating System could possibly further benefit from this plan through an additional decrease in their flood insurance premiums. Natural hazards land use policy in Washington Planning for natural hazards in Washington has taken shape over the past 30 years beginning with the State Environmental Policy Act (1971) and the Shorelines Management Act (1971), and followed bythe State Building Code Act (1974, 1985) and the Growth Management Act (1991). It is an integral element of Washington's statewide land use planning program which focuses on appropriate land use controls in critical areas that are prone to natural disasters, along with keeping up with the latest technology in construction methods to mitigate potential disasters. Vs. 5 56 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Support for natural hazards mitigation The primary responsibility for the development and implementation of mitigation strategies and policies lies with local jurisdictions. However, local jurisdictions are not alone; various partners and resources exist at the state and federal levels to assist local government in the development of mitigation strategies and plans. Within Washington State, the Washington Military Department, Emergency Management Division is the lead agency for providing hazard mitigation planning assistance to local jurisdictions. Plan Methodology Because of the similarity in hazards that pose threats to the various communities within Jefferson County, a decision was made that the Plan should meet three basic goals to serve the needs of the citizens of Jefferson County, and governmental jurisdictions and agencies: That the plan be multi jurisdictional thereby satisfying the natural hazards mitigation planning requirements as specified in the Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000 for all communities within Jefferson County. 2. That the plan be developed following the process outlined by the Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000 as well as the National Flood Insurance Program Community Rating System so that the plan coordinates with and compliments Community Rating System programs that exist now or may exist in the future within Jefferson County. 3. That the plan be written in such a way so as to evolve into an "All Hazards Mitigation Plan" for Jefferson County and the City of Port Townsend. The Plan was written using the best available information obtained from a wide variety of sources. Throughout the plan development process, a concerted effort was made to gather information from participating municipal and county agencies and staff as well as stakeholders, business and industry, and the citizens of Jefferson County. A concerted effort was made to solicit information from local agencies and individuals with specific knowledge of certain natural hazards and past historical events, as well as planning and zoning codes and ordinances and recent planning decisions. Establishment of the Natural Hazards Mitigation Steering Committee A new Natural Hazards Mitigation Steering Committee was formed in 2008 to assist Jefferson County in meeting the requirements of the Plan revision process and to keep the mitigation -planning project on schedule. Vs. 5 57 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) This committee was charged with the following responsibilities: • Establish plan development goals and objectives. • Establish a time line for completion of the plan. • Ensure that the plan meets the requirements of the Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000 as well as National Flood Insurance Program Community Rating System requirements. • Solicit and encourage the participation of municipalities, special purpose districts, stakeholders, and citizens in the plan development process. • Assist local planning officials, special purpose district commissioners, and others in gathering information for inclusion in the plan. • Organize and oversee the public involvement process. • Gather all pertinent information to be included in the plan. • And ... craft the plan. Natural Hazards Mitigation Steering Committee Members Bob Hamlin, Director, Jefferson County Department of Emergency Management Keppie Keplinger, Deputy Director, Jefferson County Department of Emergency Management Ken Horvath, Project Coordinator, Hazard Mitigation Update Project Ken Clow, Director, City of Port Townsend Public Works Michael Evans, Police Chief, City of Port Townsend The Natural Hazards Mitigation Steering Committee will continue in an advisory capacity after this plan is completed and the Natural Hazards Mitigation Planning Grant is terminated. Responsibility for annual updates and revisions to the plan will be delegated to the Jefferson County Department of Community Development. To maintain continuity between the requirements of the planning grant and the plan development process, each member of the Natural Hazards Mitigation Steering Committee is also a member of the Natural Hazards Mitigation Planning Committee Input from the Natural Hazards Mitigation Planning Committee The Natural Hazards Mitigation Planning Committee convened on an ad hoc basis as a means to gather and share information, assess vulnerabilities, identify critical facilities, assist in developing mitigation strategies, and provide continuity throughout the plan development process to insure that jurisdictional - specific natural hazards vulnerability information and mitigation strategies were incorporated into the plan. Natural Hazards Mitigation Plannina Committee Members Community Representatives Emergency Management / Public Safety Lynn Sterbenz, Director, Jefferson County Department of Emergency Management Joe Nole, Undersheriff, Jefferson County Michael Evans, Police Chief, City of Port Townsend Vs. 5 58 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Public Works/Enaineerina Ken Clow, Director of Public Works, City of Port Townsend Ian Jablonski, Water Resource Asset Manager, City of Port Townsend Monte Reinders, Director of Public Works, Jefferson County The Natural Hazards Mitigation Planning Committee will remain a semi active group following the formal adoption of this plan. This committee will meet on a semi-annual basis to be determined each year as a means to network and maintain contact with each other. In addition, the Natural Hazards Mitigation Planning Committee will also provide direction and oversight and otherwise assist with the annual plan evaluation process. Input from Stakeholders and Citizens In order to facilitate better coordination and communication between the Natural Hazards Mitigation Planning Committee as well as stakeholders and citizens of the community, "The Jefferson - Peninsula Regional Emergency Planning Committee (JPREP)" which provides for inter- agency and inter -jurisdictional communication and coordination, was used as a larger planning group and served as an Extended Natural Hazards Mitigation Planning Committee. Information was gathered from these stakeholders and citizens via a series of public and JPREP meetings beginning in September 2015 and concluding in December 2016. Because of poor attendance at previous hazard mitigation meetings, city council, county commissioner, and special district board meetings were used as venues to draw public comment. These met all the legal requirements for notification, and did not waste time, which was limited in spite of having funding available from a planning grant. Because of our poor experience with public response in prior plan development efforts, we also expanded our solicitation of input to the city website and to the one hundred twenty-three Neighborhood Emergency Groups that have developed since the last plan was created. By "preaching to the choir", we hoped to draw more interest and more responsiveness. Additionally, an online presence was created at www.jprephazmitplan.org to allow individuals to view the 2009 Plan and the 2016 Draft Plan as it was developed. Site visitors were encouraged to make comments and suggestions as the Plan was developed. Vs. 5 59 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Natural Hazards Mitiaation Advisory Committee Stakeholders Information regarding hazard identification, vulnerability assessment, and mitigation strategies for inclusion in this plan was also requested from the following agencies and organizations: All Jefferson County Drainage Districts Parks & Recreation District No. 1 All Jefferson County Fire Districts Port of Port Townsend All Jefferson County Hospital Districts Port Townsend School District All Jefferson County Sewer Districts Port Townsend Library District All Jefferson County Water Districts Public Utility District No. 1 of Jefferson County Housing Authority of Jefferson County Port Townsend Police Department Jefferson County Library District Port Townsend Finance Department Jefferson Transit Authority Water Districts 1, 2, and 3 Jefferson County Sheriff's Office JC Department of Community Development Jefferson County Assessor PT Business & Community Development Dept Jefferson County Central Services Jefferson County Public Works JeffCom 911 Port Townsend Public Works Appendix C, PARTICIPANTS & CONTACTS, contains the names and roles of each of the individual participants from the above organizations and citizenry. It is divided into the Steering Committee, Advisory Committee, Reviewers, and other citizens who have made a significant contribution to the effort to produce the Plan. Over 200 people from 19 jurisdictions and special districts contributed to the building of this Plan. In addition, the following jurisdictions are recognized in the process of developing the Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan through the provision of information, and a commitment to coordinate efforts in the future. These entities were selected because Jefferson County does not have jurisdiction over them, yet the mitigation plans of these jurisdictions impact Jefferson County in terms of its needs to place mitigation resources, and in some cases, for the purposes of the "All Hazards" plan, actually create the type of hazard that Jefferson County needs to anticipate. Private partnerships have been encouraged with businesses and individuals that could be anticipated to have to have a material impact on planning issues, mitigation efforts, and fast recovery during a natural disaster.

These citizens became involved because of their specific knowledge of certain natural hazards and past historical events as well as local land use plans and codes and recent planning decisions. Robert Bindschadler (NASA Eineritas Scientist) (2016) Sue Horvath (2016) Tom Camfield Pete Hubbard (2016) Pain Chse Rita Kepner (2016) Dennis Crawford Cindy Jayne (2016) Linda Davis, Solstice Farm (2016) Deborah Stinson Jeffery Harhnua Mike Zirnrnennan (2016) Hazard specific research The Natural Hazards Mitigation Planning Committee, in close cooperation with the Jefferson County Department of Emergency Management, compiled information and collected data for thirteen natural hazards that coincided with the County's Hazard Identification and Vulnerability Analysis: avalanche, damaging winds, drought, earthquake, flood, heat wave, land movement, public health emergencies, tornado, tsunami / seiche, volcanic activity, wildland fire, and winter storms. Information was obtained from local historical records, and a wide variety of local, state, and federal agencies as well as the above referenced stakeholder interviews and public workshops. In addition, a great deal of information was obtained from existing plans, studies, reports and numerous sources via the Internet. See Appendix E for a list of resources used. Note: In 2009, we expanded the number of natural hazards by splitting "severe storms" into "wind storms" and "winter storms" and by adding "Heat Wave" and "Public Health Incidents" and tornados, even thorough these are rare. Similarly, the man-made hazards were expanded to include a break-out of transportation issues, particularly "military ordnance incidents" and "maritime incidents". In 2016, a section on "Climate Change" was added to each of the appropriate hazards. In addition, the draft version of updated FEMA FIRMS was available along with the risk assessments done to develop the new FIRMS. These, also, were used with their appropriate hazards. Plan Development Process The Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000 In the past, federal legislation has provided funding for disaster relief, recovery, and hazard mitigation planning. The Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000 is the latest legislation to improve this planning process and was put into motion on October 10, 2000, when the President of the United States signed the Act (Public Law 106-390). The new legislation reinforces the importance of mitigation planning and emphasizes planning for disasters before they occur. Mitigate: to cause to become less harsh or hostile; to make less severe or painful. Planning: the actorprocess ofmaking or carrying outplans; the establishment of goals, policies, andprocedures fora Vs. 5 61 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) social or economic unit Hazard Mitigation (as defined by the Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000): any sustained action taken to reduce or eliminate the long-term risk to human life and property from hazards. The Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000 is intended to facilitate cooperation between state and local authorities, prompting them to work together. It encourages and rewards local and state predisaster planning and promotes sustainability as a strategy for disaster resistance. To implement the new Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000 requirements, The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) prepared an Interim Final Rule, published in the Federal Registry on February 26, 2002, at 44 CFR Parts 201 and 206, which establishes planning and funding criteria for state and local governments. The primary purpose ofhazard mitigation is to identify community policies, actions, and tools for implementation over the long term that will result in a reduction in risk and potential for future losses community -wide. This is accomplished by using a systematic process of learning about the hazards that can affect the community, setting clear goals, identifying appropriate actions, following through with an effective mitigation strategy, and keeping the plan current. Local Involvement: Almost all of the jurisdictions in the Plan contributed to the development of the plan through the dedication of staff time to oversee the development of the plan, assist in writing the plan, and/or compile jurisdiction -specific information contained in the plan. Key contributors in this process were: Bob Hamlin, Director, Jefferson County Department of Emergency Management Ken Horvath, Project Coordinator Doug Noltemeier, Jefferson County GIS Tyler Johnson, City of Port Townsend GIS This Plan is the result of a focused effort on the part of local municipalities, jurisdictions, special purpose districts, agencies, and citizen involvement. The writing and organizing of the Plan was performed by Jefferson County Department of Emergency Management and by City of Port Townsend staff with a great deal of assistance provided by members of the Natural Hazards Mitigation Steering Committee. Appendix C, Participants & Contacts, contains a table of the names and roles of each of the individual participants from all of the jurisdictions, districts, and citizenry. Over 200 people from 19 participating jurisdictions and special districts, and coordinating entities who contributed to the building of this Plan are listed. The table is divided into the Steering Committee, Advisory Committee, Reviewers, and other citizens who have made a significant contribution to the effort to produce the Plan. All jurisdictions and special districts having elected governing bodies were contacted and asked if they would participate in the development of the overall Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan for the County. Given the resources available to each jurisdiction, they participated as best they could. In the case of school districts, for example, all districts were currently working on an Emergency Response Plan, which included a section on Hazard Mitigation. Thus, they were able to provide a subset of their Emergency Response Plan as input into the Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan. Vs. 5 62 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) All participants fell into one or more of the following categories: Steering Committee — Provided leadership in getting resources to compile and write the Plan, in providing guidance in the strategic development of the Plan, and in getting adoption in the key jurisdictions. Advisory Committee — Provided local champions to gather and assemble hazard mitigation source material and to assess the local hazard needs. This group also committed to being the ongoing contacts for the annual review and update of the Plan. Stakeholders — Stakeholders are local champions who provided significant input into the development of the Plan through the gathering of their district's mitigation needs, and who reviewed the draft versions and provided counsel to improve the Plan. These champions reviewed and recommended the adoption of the Plan to the 24 Boards and Councils that comprised the eligible government entities in Jefferson County. Stakeholders generally have sufficient authority to commit staff resources to implement mitigation activities, and to support the Plan. All Steering Committee and Advisory Committee members are stakeholders. Contacts — Contacts are people, primarily staffers, who made significant contributions, including reviewing the draft Plan, but did not have the leadership role in making the Plan viable in their district. Commissioners and Council Members — Commissioners and Council Members had the legal authority to commit the jurisdiction or special district to participate in and to adopt the Plan as their entity's official Plan. Generally, the adoption of the Plan was made upon the recommendation of the primary stakeholder reporting the Board, and after a period of "due diligence" in which the Board reviewed the Plan and determined that the commitment asked of their district was acceptable. Others — Other individuals who contributed, but did not fall into one of the above categories are listed. These include staff support, the contributions of interested citizens, and even stakeholders whose analysis eventually led them to determine they should opt out of the Plan. The table in Appendix C identifies each of the people who contributed and the specific role they had in putting together such a comprehensive work in so short a time. Public Participation Process Public participation is a key component to strategic planning processes. Citizen participation offers citizens the chance to voice their ideas, interests, and opinions. Washington's land use planning system addresses the need for public process and provides the opportunity for citizens to be involved in the planning process. The Federal Emergency Management Agency also requires public input during the development of flood mitigation plans. The Jefferson County City of Port Townsend Hazard Mitigation Plan integrates a cross-section of citizen input throughout the planning process. The Natural Hazard Mitigation Steering Committee developed a public participation processes encompassing four components: (1) a Hazard Mitigation Advisory Committee comprised of knowledgeable individuals in the community; (2) conducting stakeholder interviews to target the specialized knowledge of individuals working with populations or areas at risk from natural hazards; (3) conducting public meetings to identify common concerns and ideas regarding hazard mitigation and to discuss specific goals and actions of the mitigation plan; and (4) and an on-going feedback mechanism that allows public contact with the planning through the internet. Integrating citizen involvement during the development of the Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan has resulted in increased public awareness, and set the stage for future cooperation from the portion of the public that Vs. 5 63 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) has a particular interest in man-made hazards that will be covered in the All Hazard Mitigation Plan to come. This involvement and cooperation assures that the mitigation plan reflects community issues, concerns, and perspectives, and encourages new ideas to be brought forward to benefit the community. In addition, the one hundred twenty-three neighborhood emergency groups were asked to address hazard mitigation at their regular meetings and provide feedback to the Planning Team, either directly or through the Plan website at www.jprephazmitplan.org. Public Involvement In order to better involve the public in the planning process, the Natural Hazards Mitigation Steering Committee advertised and conducted public meetings as part of the Board and/or council meetings in which resolutions were passed relating to the Plan. All such meetings fall under Washington's Open Public Meetings Act (RCW 42.30) and thus assure that the appropriate notifications, Agendas, etc. are published. Passing of a resolution or inclusion of the Board minutes provides proof that all legal requirements were met. We have found that this makes it easier for the public to attend because the facilities and time are generally known, and it is easier for individuals to plan their schedules around these meetings. This effort is in addition to the many public meetings and workshops held by stakeholders to solicit input into the development of their own planning documents, such as Jefferson County's Comprehensive Plan, which provided much of the material for the overall Plan. Project Webpage The second aspect of the public process involved the development of a project website, www jprephazmitplan.org, independent of the City of Port Townsend's website. The working draft was placed on the website created specifically for the public to use to view and comment on the Plan in real-time as it was being developed. Vs. 5 64 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Plan Participation and Adoption The Jefferson County Administrator, and City of Port Townsend City Manager agreed to participate in the development ofthe All Hazards Mitigation Plan on behalf of their governing bodies and agreed to adopt it once FEMA has approved the Plan. In addition, special districts that participated in the development of the Jefferson County Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan in prior years did the same. The Summary of Adoption Resolutions, below, details the adoption history, since there have been significant organizational changes over the years that the region has been participating. The City has benefited greatly from previous Plans and has an interlocal agreement with the county, so that it agreed to fund the writing and publication of the Plan for all participating jurisdictions. This was done by obtaining Pre -Disaster Mitigation Planning Grant El6-091and by providing matching funds from inception through approval by FEMA.

Five-year updates will be delivered to the Washington State Hazard Mitigation Officer for review and forwarding to the Federal Emergency Management Agency, Region X Office. Annual Plan Evaluation In an effort to facilitate the annual plan evaluation process, the Natural Hazards Mitigation Planning Committee will remain a semi -active group following the formal adoption of this plan and shall be charged with the responsibility of conducting an annual plan evaluation each calendar year. The Director of the Jefferson County Department of Community Development or his/her designee will be responsible for contacting the chairperson and members of the Natural Hazards Mitigation Planning Committee and organizing the annual plan evaluation process. The Natural Hazards Mitigation Planning Committee will review the current natural hazards mitigation strategies to determine their relevance to changing situations within Jefferson County as well as known changes in State or Federal policy, and to insure these mitigation strategies are addressing current and expected conditions. Jefferson County and the City of Port Townsend address statewide planning goals and legislative requirements through GMA, CRS, and NFIP requirements, capital improvement plans, and building codes. The Plan will provide a series of recommendations that are closely related to the goals and objectives of these existing planning programs. Local plans, such as Emergency Response Plans, that have sections related to Hazard Mitigation will be coordinated with the Plan so that requirements of the Plan are incorporated into local guiding documents and ordinances, and vice versa. As part of this annual evaluation, those communities that participate in the Community Rating System shall submit a copy of their annual evaluation report to the Chairperson of the Natural Hazards Mitigation Planning Committee no later than September 15' of each calendar year. (At this time none of the Jefferson County communities are participating in the CRS.) Following the annual plan evaluation process, the Chairperson of the Natural Hazards Mitigation Planning Committee, in cooperation with the Jefferson County Department of Community Development, will prepare a written report describing: 1) the plan evaluation process; 2) the status of any current mitigation activities or projects; 3) any deficiencies identified as a result of the plan evaluation. Copies of this report shall be delivered to the City Manager of the City of Port Townsend, the County Administrator and Board of Jefferson County Commissioners, and participating jurisdictions no later than September 30th of each calendar year. In addition, a copy of this report will also be mailed to the Washington State Hazard Mitigation Officer no later than September 30' of each calendar year. NOTE: This annual plan evaluation and report is for the express purpose of evaluating and reporting the status of the various mitigation strategies and/or projects identified in this plan and to assess the progress of existing mitigation activities. Vs. 5 66 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Those jurisdictions that participate in the Community Rating System are responsible for evaluating, maintaining, and updating their Community Rating System Program as well as submitting written reports in accordance with current Community Rating System requirements. Five -Year Plan Update The Plan must be updated annually and resubmitted to the Washington State Emergency Management Department and to FEMA every 5 years for approval in order to maintain eligibility for mitigation grants. Updates to the Plan shall be conducted on a five-year cycle and shall commence at the direction of the Director of the Jefferson County Department of Community Development no later than March First of the scheduled update year. Upon such direction, staff from the Jefferson County Department of Community Development, in cooperation with the chairperson of the Natural Hazards Mitigation Planning Committee, will begin the process of updating the plan. The City Council ofthe City of Port Townsend, and the Jefferson County Board of County Commissioners shall approve the updated plan and a copy of the updated plan shall be submitted to the Washington State Hazard Mitigation Officer no later than September 3W of the update year. Assuming the approval of this Plan in 2017, the following schedule will be in effect: PLAN EVALUATION AND UPDATE SCHEDULE 2017 — 2021 Em Date Required Action to be Taken July -September 2018 Conduct plan evaluation and public meeting September 2018 Submit written report to Washington State Emergency Management Department July- September 2019 Conduct plan evaluation and public meeting September 2019 Submit written report to Washington State Emergency Management Department July -September 2020 Conduct plan evaluation and public meeting September 2020 Submit written report to Washington State Emergency Management Department July -September 2021 Conduct plan evaluation and public meeting September 2021 Submit written report to Washington State Emergency Management Department. February 2022 Director of the Jefferson County Department of Emergency Management directs Plan to be updated March 2022 Natural Hazards Mitigation Planning Committee Chairperson and Department of Emergency Management staff will begin 5 -year plan update process; request a report of all mitigation activities and/or projects from all participating jurisdictions. March 2021 - June 2022 Update plan in cooperation with Natural Hazards Mitigation Planning Committee Chairperson and others as may be necessary July & August 2022 Conduct at least one public meeting regarding the plan update; receive comments from Planning Committee Members, stakeholders, and the public; make revisions as may be necessary September 2022 Updated plan approved by all participating entities October 2022 Submit updated Plan to Washington State Emergency Management Department and to FEMA for re -approval. Vs. 5 67 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) It should be noted that the 2009 Plan included a schedule that was to be completed by June of 2015 — prior to expiration of the 2004 Plan. Personnel cuts due to the "Great Recession" along with an increase in emergencies that created a back -log of work for FEMA delayed the start of the main part of this effort until November 2015, when the grant contract with FEMA to fund the writing was finally signed. Hopefully, this will not recur. Continued Public Involvement All participating entities are dedicated to the continued involvement of the public in the Natural Hazards Mitigation process. Copies of the Plan will be kept and made available for public review at the following locations: • Jefferson County Department of Emergency Management • Jefferson County Department of Public Works • Jefferson County Department of Community Development (DCD) • Jefferson County Public Library • City of Port Townsend Developmental Services Department (DSD) • City of Port Townsend Library • City of Port Townsend Administration Department • City of Port Townsend Public Works A notice regarding the existence and location of these copies of the Plan will be publicized annually during the month of September in the Port Townsend Leader, the local weekly newspaper that serves Jefferson County. The Jefferson County Department of Community Development shall be responsible for receiving, tracking, and filing public comments regarding the Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan. Contact information for the Jefferson County Department of Community Development is included in the Point Of Contact information on page iii. A public meeting will be held as a part ofthe annual plan evaluation process as well as the five-year plan update. Additional meetings may also be held as deemed necessary by the Chairperson of the Natural Hazards Mitigation Planning Committee. The purpose of these meetings is to provide a public forum so that citizens can express concerns, opinions, or ideas about the Plan. The Jefferson County Public Information Officer shall be responsible for utilizing Jefferson County resources to publicize annual public meetings in order to facilitate continued public involvement in the natural hazards mitigation process within Jefferson County and the City of Port Townsend. Vs. 5 68 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) SECTION II MULTI -JURISDICTIONAL HAZARD IDENTIFICATION Vs. 5 69 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) This Page Intentionally Blank Vs. 5 70 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Multi -Jurisdictional Community Profile INTRODUCTION The research and preparation of the Multi -Jurisdictional Hazard Identification is an outgrowth of The Jefferson County Hazard Identification and Risk Analysis (THIRA) which was completed in January 2016.' It also contains data extracted from the Risk Report for Jefferson County, including the City of Port Townsend and the Hoh Tribe? The purpose of these analyses is to provide information on potential large-scale hazards that could impact Jefferson County. It is intended to provide a basis for awareness and planning to support county -wide emergency management programs. The hazards discussed in this section are not the only ones that may threaten the people or the properties of the County. Conditions may change and new information may become available that could necessitate modifications. Data contained in this Analysis has been extracted from various publications, maps, and internet websites. This section is not intended to be a detailed study of each hazard, but rather a general overview of hazards and vulnerabilities to those hazards as pertains to Jefferson County. JEFFERSON COUNTY PROFILE GEOGRAPHY Jefferson County, the 18' largest county in Washington, is situated in the upper half of the Olympic Peninsula in Northwest Washington.' Mountains, rolling timbered hills and lowlands comprise the topography. Mountains comprise approximately 75% of the county's landmass and fall within the boundaries of the Olympic National Park and the Olympic National Forest. The county is bounded by the Pacific Ocean on its western I edge. Beach areas on the Pacific are also part of the r Olympic National Park. (See Figure J-1 Jefferson ' [ County.) According to the Washington Data Book, the county has a total area of 5,655 km2 (2,184 mi2). 4,699 km2 (1,814 mit) of it is land and 956 km2 (369 mit) of it (16.91%) is water. The county is split in three parts by its landforms: Eastern Jefferson County along the Strait of Juan de Fuca, Admiralty Inlet, and Puget Sound; Central Jefferson County, which is uninhabited and lies in the Olympic Mountains within Olympic National Park and Olympic National Forest and Western Jefferson County, along the Pacific Ocean. Because of the mountainous barrier, there is no road lying entirely within Jefferson County that connects the eastern and western parts. The most direct land route between the two ends of the county involves a drive of approximately 100 miles along U.S. Route 101 through neighboring Vs. 5 71 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Clallam County. The mountains also block the damp Chinook winds, which make the climate very much wetter in the West than the so-called Eastern "banana belt" in the rain shadow.4 The original formation of Jefferson County during a time when the Oregon Territory was poorly explored is now generally recognized as a geographical error, but an error which cannot be conveniently rectified. The Strait of Juan de Fuca separates Vancouver Island of British Columbia from the Olympic Peninsula of Washington state. The western and eastern areas of the county are separated by the Olympic National Park and Olympic National Forest properties. The mountain areas of the Park include mountains up to nearly 8,000 feet. These National Park and National Forest areas are among the most scenic areas of the state if not the entire country. The lower half of the eastern shoreline of Hood Canal is also part of the Olympic National Forest. The upper half of the eastern shoreline is an area of rich valleys leading to the foothills of the Olympic Mountains. Steep and rocky cliffs give way to low beaches and wetlands. The upper half of the eastern section of the county is where most of the population resides. Eastern Jefferson County consists of low rolling hills leading to moderately steep, glacial terraces and long narrow valleys in the northern and northeaster sections. The southeastern section consists primarily of moderately steep, to steep glacial terraces and very steep, rough mountain foothills. In Western Jefferson County, the 30 -mile long coastal area includes many beaches and rocky cliffs. The broad valleys of several large rivers traverse from the mountains in the central part of the county to the western beaches. The coastal area consists of gentle rolling to moderately steep glacial terraced uplands interspersed with numerous swampy depressions. Several mountainous spur ridges up to 1,500 feet tall are part of this coastal area. From the coastal area to the Olympic Park boundary, the topography rises abruptly to 3,400 feet to become part of the steep western flanks of the Olympic Mountains. (See Figure J-2 Geology) CLIMATE WEST OLYMPIC -COASTAL (West Jefferson County) — This area includes the coastal plains and western slope of the Coastal Range from the Columbia River to the Strait of Juan de Fuca. The Olympic Mountains, located on the northern section of the Olympic Peninsula, tower to nearly 8,000 feet deeply carved by rivers. The Willapa Hills, elevation 1,000 to 3,000 feet, form a continuous ridge from the Chehalis River valley to the Columbia River. This area receives the full force of storms moving inland from over the ocean, thus heavy precipitation and winds of gale force occur frequently during the winter season. Wind velocities in the lower elevations can be expected to reach 90 to 100 mph. once in 100 years. Wind data from a well -exposed site on a ridge near the ocean, elevation 2,000 feet, indicates that wind velocities in excess of 100 mph occur in the higher elevations almost every winter. The "rainforest" area along the southwestern and western slopes of the Olympic Mountains receives the heaviest precipitation in the continental United States. Annual precipitation ranges from 70 to 100 inches over the Coastal Plains to 150 inches or more along the windward slopes of the mountains. The greatest annual precipitation recorded in the "rainforest" area is 184 inches at Wynoochee Oxbow, elevation 600 feet. The heaviest rainfall during a single storm was 12 inches in 24 hours; 23.5 inches in 48 hours; 28.6 inches in 72 hours; and 35 inches in four days recorded at Quinault Ranger Station, January 21-24, 1935. On Blue Glacier, elevation 6,900 feet and near the summit of Mt. Olympus, 149 inches of precipitation were recorded between August 1957 and Vs. 5 72 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) July 1958. The total snowfall for this period was 542 inches. During the same period, precipitation at lower elevation stations was approximately 15 percent below normal. Winter season snowfall ranges from 10 to 30 inches in the lower elevations and between 250 to 500 inches in the higher mountains. In the lower elevations, snow melts rather quickly and depths seldom exceed six to 15 inches. In midwinter, the snowline in the Olympic Mountains and the Willapa Hills is between 1,500 and 3,000 feet above sea level. The higher ridges are covered with snow from November until June. The average maximum temperature in July is near 70° F along the coast and 75° F in the foothills, and minimum temperatures are near 50° F. In winter, the warmer areas are near the coast. In January, maximum temperatures range from 430 to 480 and minimum temperatures from 320 to 38° F. NORTHEAST OLYMPIC -SAN JUAN (Includes East Jefferson County and the City of Port Townsend) — This area includes the lower elevations along the northeastern slope of the Olympic Mountains extending eastward along the Strait of Juan de Fuca from near Port Angeles to Whidbey Island and then northward into the San Juan Islands. The Olympic Mountains and the extension of the Coastal Range on Vancouver Island shield this area from winter storms moving inland from over the ocean. This belt in the "rain shadow" of the Olympic Mountains is the driest area in western Washington. The average annual precipitation ranges from about 18 inches near Sequim, Port Townsend and Coupeville to between 25 and 30 inches in the vicinity of Everett on the east, Port Angeles on the west and Olga in the San Juan Islands on the north. Measurable precipitation is recorded on three to five days each month in summer and on 17 to 22 days in winter. Another factor which distinguishes this belt from other localities in the Puget Sound region is the rate of rainfall. This area frequently receives drizzle or light rain while other localities are experiencing light to moderate rainfall. Snowfall is light in the lower elevations adjacent to the water, increasing with distance from the water and rise in terrain. This area is considered to receive slightly more sunshine and have less cloudiness than other localities in Puget Sound; however, the difference is not in proportion to the decrease in precipitation. During the latter half of the summer and early fall, fog banks from over the ocean and Strait of Juan de Fuca result in considerable fog and morning cloudiness in the lower elevations. The average July maximum temperature ranges from 65° F near the water to 70° or 75° F inland, and the minimum temperature is near 50° F. Maximum temperatures seldom exceed 90° F. In January, maximum temperatures are in the 40's and minimums in the lower 30's. Minimum temperatures between -5° and —8° F have been recorded; however, the minimum temperature seldom drops below 15° to 20° F. The coldest weather is usually associated with an outbreak of cold air from the interior of Canada. The average date of the last freezing temperature in the spring ranges from the latter half of March near the water to the last of April in agricultural areas 100 to 300 feet above sea level and a few miles inland. The first freezing temperature in the fall is about the first of November. DEMOGRAPHICS The county seat, Port Townsend, hosts nearly one third (8,334) of the total population of the county. The total land area of Jefferson County is 1,144,330 acres or 1814 square miles. (See Figure J-3 Taxing Districts.) Vs. 5 73 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) The population has grown at an increasing rate. Jefferson County is one of the fastest growing counties in the state. From 1990 to 2000, the population of the county grew 27.2% and projections indicate that growth will continue. (See Figure J-4 Population Trend Maps.) The county attracts many tourists during the summer months. On weekends during special events, the population of Port Townsend is estimated to double. Surrounding communities also experience significant increased traffic and visitors. During the summer tourist season, for example, the population of the west end of Jefferson County can increase from 900 to 10,000. Population Trend Over two decades there has been a discernible shift in the age make-up of the population from the age group 25-40 towards the age group 65+. That shift is expected to continue in the decades from now until 2030, when the largest age group in the county will be the over -65 population. The overall trend is often described as the "graying" of the population. Changing Age Mix in Total Washington State Population The figure J4 graphs show how Washington's population is getting older. The majority of the population for all years shown is in the 25 - 44 age group. However, while Washington's population grows, the percentage of people 45 and older gets larger and the percentage of people 44 and under gets smaller. POPULATION CENTERS The county's population centers are primarily based in the northeast corner of the county with Port Townsend having the highest density. Other communities including Port Ludlow, Port Hadlock, Chimacum, and Quilcene have experienced growth over the past several years and are expected to continue in this pattern. (See Figure J-5 Population Density.) Communities in the "West End" of the county are the most sparsely permanently populated areas in the county. During the summer months, the "vacation population" in the West End almost doubles the area's total population. Popular destinations include the Hoh Rainforest and Kalaloch Ocean Beach located in the Olympic National Park. Hikers, campers, and visitors to lodges come from around the world to visit the Olympic Peninsula. ECONOMY Personal income includes earned income, investment income, and government payments such as Social Security and Veterans Benefits. Investment income includes income imputed from pension funds and from owning a home. Per capita personal income equals total personal income divided by the resident population. Per capita personal income in Jefferson County in 2013 was $47,111 compared to $47,717 for the state and $44,765 for the nation. Jefferson County ranked third in the state in 2013 in per capita income. It ranked third in 2007 and 2008 and fourth in 2004, 2005, 2006 and 2012. Given its rural classification, it is not too surprising that Jefferson County has a slightly higher poverty rate than that of the state. According to the U.S. Census QuickFacts, 14.1 percent of those in the county were living below the poverty level compared to 13.2 percent of the state population Vs. 5 74 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) and 14.8 percent of the U.S. population in the period 2010 through 2014. The state and national rates are not directly comparable to the county rate because they each use different data sources.' See Figure J-6 for Land Use Distribution. Major Industries included: Pulp and Paper; Marine TradesBoatbuilding; Wood Products/Logging; Diversified Manufacturing; Tourism; and Health Care. SIGNIFICANT HISTORICAL DISASTER EVENTS6 Jefferson County has recorded 18 major Presidential Declared Disasters since 1956, not counting those state-wide declarations that included it. It should be noted, that the criteria for qualification for disaster declaration has been modified over the years. In addition, as the population has grown, the impacts on people and property have also increased. Table J-1 below shows the Federal Disaster Declarations for Washington State for the last 45 years. Declarations that directly affected Jefferson County are highlighted in RED, while declarations that affected adjacent counties are highlighted in Blue. Jefferson County is impacted by disasters in neighboring counties in two ways: 1. It has mutual aid agreements with adjacent counties, so wildfires, windstorms, and landslides, for example, can and do result in Jefferson County resources being expended; and Since Jefferson County is on a peninsula, strategically occurring disasters in neighboring counties can disrupt deliveries of food and fuel to Jefferson County just when it is needed most. An earthquake or storm that takes out the Hood Canal Bridge, for example, will cause major economic damage to Jefferson County.

These phenomena may have impacts on mitigation, preparedness, response, and recovery operations as well as the resiliency of critical infrastructure and various emergency assets. FEMA encourages Recipients and subrecipients to consider climate change adaptation and resiliency in their planning and scoping efforts'. FEMA recognizes that it is prudent for jurisdictions to be aware of and plan for more severe climatic events in the future, regardless of what they may be. In its 2011 FEMA Climate Change Adaptation Policy Statement, paragraph IV.A.S states, "The current standards and guidance, based on today's climate, may not anticipate the risks structures will face as the climate changes. Therefore, it is important to review guidance and standards to determine the feasibility of incorporating future climate change considerations, and encourage the integration of adaptation measures into local planning and development practice S2.11 The implications to participants of the Plan are that in the future: 1. FEMA will require updated plans to address climate change in its planning, and 2. Climate change factors will be included in Benefit / Cost Analysis for projects. Jefferson County and the City of Port Townsend are already proceeding down those lines as steadily as economic feasibility allows. In 2007, they issued a Joint Resolution (County Resolution 44-073, City Resolution 07-0224), committing to reducing greenhouse gas emissions and empowering a joint City/County citizen's committee to develop a Local Climate Action Plan. In 2008, the County and the City issues a Joint Resolution (County Resolution 02-085, City Resolution 08-0016) Providing Composition Terms of Office and Procedural Rules for the Climate Action Committee to create a Climate Action Plan (CAP) for the county. This was followed in January, 2009 with a Joint Resolution (County Resolution 06-09', City Resolution 09-0028) adopting an Inventory of Energy Usage and Associated Greenhouse Gas Emissions, Backcasts, Forecasts, and Interim Targets & Approving Climate Change Committee Workplan.9 In November, 2011, the County and the City adopted the Climate Action Plan10 created by the Climate Action Committee, and proceeded to implement it. The policies and goals of the Climate Action Plan parallel that of the Federal and State governments and will show up in this and future hazard mitigation plans as policy changes and strategic development to enhance the resilience of the area. Vs. 5 93 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Climate Change Definition The most general definition of climate change is a change in the statistical properties (principally its mean and spread) of the climate system when considered over long periods of time, regardless of cause. Accordingly, fluctuations over periods shorter than a few decades, such as El Nino, do not represent climate change." "The term sometimes is used to refer specifically to climate change caused by human activity, as opposed to changes in climate that may have resulted as part of Earth's natural processes.'Z In this sense, especially in the context of environmental policy, the term climate change has become synonymous with anthropogenic global warming. Within scientific journals, global warming refers to surface temperature increases while climate change includes global warming and everything else that increasing greenhouse gas levels affect."" For the purposes of the Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend Hazard Mitigation Plan (Plan), we will use the first definition rather than narrow our focus to only global warming. It is not the purpose of this Plan to advocate a particular solution for global warming. Rather, it is the purpose of this Plan to identify the range of possibilities that can affect the natural hazards in Jefferson County and call those out so that the participants in the Plan can look at the issues that uniquely affect them and decide what is a reasonable adaptation to mitigate future harm to their jurisdiction. The conundrum that we face in evaluating climate change for the purposes of hazard mitigation is to first fmd rational predictors of the mean and spread of conditions or events that presage disaster conditions. That is a significant purpose of this document — to provide a summary of the best available science — and some outliers — that provide the reader with the possibilities and probabilities of the hazards identified as threatening Jefferson County jurisdictions. Where possible, we will use estimates and probabilities relating to the local area. Our primary sources for this will be: 1. Climate Action Plan for Port Townsend/ Jefferson County Washington, Adopted November 14, 2011 2. Climate Change Preparedness Plan for the North Olympic Peninsula, September 2015 3. Best Available Science Report, Jefferson County Critical Areas Ordinance Update, December 15, 2015 4. Risk Report for Jefferson County including the City of Port Townsend and the Hoh Tribe, January, 2016. If we find other credible sources in addition to the above, we will use them too. Our goal is to present the range of possibilities for the next five years, so that participants in the Plan can update their strategies and implement them as quickly as economically feasible. Summary of Predictions "It is increasingly apparent that the global climate is rapidly changing and that these changes will affect the people, ecosystems, economy, and culture of the North Olympic Peninsula. The most noticeable impacts will likely include: Vs. 5 94 September 2016 Jefferson County - City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) • A diminishing snowpack lowering the region's summer river flow and extending the summer drought season; • Shifts in the timing and type of precipitation, creating rain on snow events and unseasonably high stream flows that scour river bottoms and flood low -land areas; • Ongoing sea level rise driving coastal flooding, saltwater inundation, and enhanced shoreline erosion; • Extended warm temperatures which result in increased river water temperatures, enhanced wildfire risk, decreased soil moisture, and stressed forests through disease and insect outbreaks; and • Increasingly corrosive ocean waters (i.e. ocean acidification) from the ongoing absorption of human emissions of CO2. 1114 Table CC -1 presents a summary of the climate change predictions developed for the Climate Change Preparedness Plan for the North Olympic Peninsula."

A Project of the North Olympic Peninsula Resource Conservation & Development Council and the Washington Department of Commerce, funded by the Environmental Protection Agency. Available: www.noprcd.org The extensive effort to predict the natural and human influences on future changes in climate has been focused on how a number of the indicative climate variables (e.g., surface, air and ocean temperatures and precipitation) will change. Complex models of climate, validated by comparison with past observations, are driven by estimates of future societal energy use and variable natural inputs, such as solar radiation. No such model is perfect, so predictions from a number of models are combined to produce a best estimate and spread of how these climate variables will change in the future. Most hazards are rare events (low probability, high impact) and, thus not directly addressed by this type of model -ensemble prediction. Nevertheless, some trends predicted with great confidence by climate models do alter the likelihood of some hazards, such as the prediction of more frequent, more intense rainstorms increasing the probability of flooding, and drier summers increasing wildfire risk. It is unfortunate that future climate change is sometimes labeled "global warming" because, although the most direct impact of increased greenhouse gas concentration in the atmosphere is warming of the globally averaged temperature, one of the most important consequences is an increase in weather variability. This is particularly relevant when considering hazard occurrence. As an example, increased storminess during the winter will cause more severe snowstorms and likely raise the danger of avalanches. A final cautionary note is that while human -driven climate change is upon us and will continue, there are natural factors that can forestall, and even temporarily reverse, some of the eventual changes. Volcanoes are the most often cited example. Particles ejected into the upper atmosphere by volcanoes have repeatedly caused sufficient reductions in solar insolation to cool the planet. The cooling effect is temporary, typically lasting 3 years, but because the scope of this report is not much longer, the possibility of such cooling events cannot be ignored. Vs. 5 96 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Integration of Climate Change into Jurisdictional Planning The implications of current FEMA thinking to participants of the Plan are that in the near future: 1. FEMA will require updated plans to address climate change in its planning; and 2. Climate change factors will be mandatory in Benefit / Cost Analysis for projects. A reasonable approach needs to be to make rational choices based on each jurisdiction's needs and economic strength, and based on the best science available — but maintaining flexibility in case things change. Appendix A of the NOP R&CD report presents 30 pages of adaptive solutions that can be used to enhance strategic planning.16 Figure CC -1 provides excerpts from the DRAFT Port ofPort Townsend Capital Repair & Replacement Plan (2016-2021) as an illustration of how it can be worked into a jurisdiction's planning." Figure CC -1— Excerpts from DRAFT Port of Port Townsend Capital Plan (2016-2021)17 A Note of Caution: Port Facilities & Climate change Vulnerabilities The Port of Port Townsend, and the businesses that benefit from the infrastructure provided by the Port, substantially contribute to the economy of Jefferson County. However, with the exception of the Jefferson County International Airport, nearly all of the Port's facilities and infrastructure lies adjacenttothe inland marine waters of Puget Sound. COrtisetluently, most Port properties are highly vulnerable to future sea level rise (SLR) and increasers storm intensity occasioned by man-made ("anthropogenic") dimate change, Much Is at stake, a$ some 150 businesses and nearly 500 jobs in Jefferson County depend upon Port land and infrastructure - The best available science suggests that recurrent storm surge damage and inundation due to sea level rise (SLR), will likely degrade, severely compromise, or even destroy significant components of low-lying Pork infrastructure over the coming century. Moreover, a recent study prepared as part of the North Olympic Peninsula Resource Conservation and Development Councils project. "Pfarrning for CYrrpate Chgnge on the North Ofympic Peninsula' (September 2015), concluded that many Port facilities may be threatened by annual coastal flociding events by as soon as 2030. See Figures 05 and i#6, on the following pages_` By mid-century, many Port facilities are likely to suffer from periodic inundallon due to SLR coupled with storm surge aind coastal flooding, By century's end (a mere -85 years in future), some Part properties are likely to be permanently inundated. Vs. 5 97 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan Rev. 2016 Although the precise #~ming o{ the arrival of severe impacts is difficult to predict, anthropogenic Timate change will threaten the financial viability of the Port over tht, coming decades. In tinier It will severely undermine our community's natural environment, public health, ami economic wellbeing. Over coming decades, SLR and storm -related flooding will undoubtedly result in the closure of a number of businesses and key components of Port infrastructure (e.g., Boat Haven Storm Water System), either perrrmanently or for significant periods of time, Moreover, anticipated effects upon ecosystems will also impact Part tenants and facility users. These include: Changes in ocean chemistry Likely to affect Coast Seafoods in Quilcena, as well as the health of the. Alaska fishery that indirectly contributes to businesses located at the Boat Haven Shipyard. Over the coming decades these changes may negatively impact Port leaseholders, as well as the Port's anticipated future revenue streams and financial health. Although recoveryfrom a single storm surge event may be passible and within the Parrs financial capabilities, the longer -terra concern Is that the mounting costs of repairing and recovering from repeated storm surgeevents that inundate low lying areas could rapidly exhaust the Port's financial ability to mount an effective and coherent response. Longer -terra, the questions are as follows-. • At what point do the costs of repairing Port infrastructure after such shacks outweigh the henej7ts derived frorn such expenditures? • At what point is it roust prudent to turn array from 'sunk" infrastructure casts and entirely re -imagine and reshape the no turf, character, oad ievei of complexity of pard operations? In Sian, inevitable future physical changes suggest that continuing to "double' down on current facilities and infrastructure may be unwise in the coming years., and that the Port should begin to anticipate ant+ prepare for the impacts of the en vironmentaI and economic damage expected from climate change, The Port would benefit greatly from the development and consistent use of an analytical decision-making framework for climate change adaptation. Thisderlsion-making methodology would factor risks based on the best available sclence, and provide a quantitative cast -benefit analysis structure to support future capital expenditures, 0evelopment and u 5 of such a tool would help the Commission and pub' C. to quantify and evaluate the estimated magnitude of costs, versus benefiits, likely to b-:? derived from nepalring and rebuilding exiting infrastructure, versus retreating.. Source: Port of Port Townsend http://portofpt.com/planning/ How this document deals with climate change. For each hazard, as appropriate, we added a "climate change" subsection that addresses what types of change may occur and how it can change the character of that hazard for our participants. Recommendations on how to deal with the climate change, whether from ad hoc reports or direct public input will be included in Stakeholder/Citizen Suggested Mitigation Strategies and Projects in Section III, Multi -Jurisdiction / Multi -Hazard Mitigation. Vs. 5 98 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) It is noteworthy that this Plan is an All -Hazards Plan and that the impact of some kinds of climate change will seriously affect what we have called "Man-made Hazards." What happens, for example, when a tsunami or flood takes out the power sub -station at the bottom of Discovery Bay? The FEMA Firm shown in Figure CC -2 below is from 1982; Preliminary Revised FIRMS released in February, 2016 show the A -zone to be right against the PUD substation, where the conservancy is marked in the 1982 FIRMS.

Previous Occurrences: Records searches have revealed that there have been no recorded deaths from avalanches in the mountain areas of the county. There has, however, been minor avalanche damage to mountain roads. Probability of Future Events: Low increasing to Medium - Avalanche fatalities in Washington are a function of resort activity. The increase of visitors to Wilderness areas of the Olympic national forest creates more opportunity for events to happen. NATURAL HAZARD RISK RATING: The average natural hazard risk rating for avalanches for all districts in Jefferson County was estimated at 1.57, which would be considered extremely low. HAZARD IDENTIFICATION AND VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT The Olympic Mountains receive extensive snow due to their size and orientation to the Pacific marine airflow. During seasons of heavy snow, some of the deepest recorded snow packs in the United States can be found in the Olympics. Beginning in November and lasting until the last remnants of snow have melted in early summer, the danger of avalanche is present. In the highest alpine areas of the Olympics, the avalanche season continues year around. There are no developed ski areas in Jefferson County that would be endangered by avalanches; however back -packing, cross-country skiing and snowmobiling are widely practiced in the mountains of Jefferson County. During fair spring weather the avalanche danger is generally lowest during the night and early morning hours when the surface snow freezes due to heat loss to the surrounding atmosphere. During the day, sun effects and warm air temperatures can rapidly melt and weaken surface snow layers and produce an increasing avalanche danger during the late morning and afternoon. Loose wet avalanche activity generally starts on east and southeast facing slopes receiving morning sunshine and progresses to the west and southwest facing slopes during the afternoon. Therefore, the safest time to cross potential avalanche terrain is during early morning hours before the surface snow begins to warm and weaken.z During the period from 2010 thru 2015, tourist volume to the Olympic National Park increased from 2.8 million to 3.2 million per year.3 As more people access these mountainous areas, the potential for injury and deaths increases. Losses are also potential for the timber industry as avalanches damage forests and higher-level mountain logging roads. Vs. 5 105 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) CLIMATE CHANGE EFFECTS If the region sees a warming trend, there will more rain and less snow across mountainous regions, which will reduce the already low probability of avalanches in the Olympic Mountains that are part of Jefferson County.4 This may also impact the economy regionally as reduced snowpack discourages winter sports enthusiasts from visiting Hurricane Ridge in the Olympic National Park. If, within the next six years (from 2016), there are colder winters, the snow level could drop below 2000 feet for a longer portion of the year, encouraging greater winter tourism and creating more opportunities for avalanches within the Olympic mountains. Relative to other areas of the state that have a robust ski industry, the probability of deadly avalanches would increase but remain small. CONCLUSION Jefferson County does not currently have significant transportation routes or recreation areas at risk and subsequently presents a very low probability associated with avalanches in Jefferson County at the current time. Figure AV -1 shows the current avalanche risk areas in the state in white.' Figure AV -2 enhances the avalanche risk areas by adding resort locations and highways at risk to the map.6 Figure AV -1: Washington State Avalanche Hazard Areas5 - C _ Ahatu, ill c- .y � i Spcl�anF , tin �aln IMa son 1 ` Kittitos 1' — pierce Adam> *, £ Thurston ` Whitmoin j Gray: Harha • rranklin 'Gtrfield Ph aken�3 S� ✓ h -a:k tem �v.Ii it y �rnton jryalla LNalla ". n- i ni Klickit at Clark sl , �� Washington State Avalanche Hazard Areas: White areas on the map indicate that those areas are at least 2,000 feet in elevation and most likely to be prone to avalanches.

The National Weather Service defines high winds as sustained winds of 40 mph or gusts of 58 mph or greater, not caused by thunderstorms, expected to last for an hour or more.' Areas most vulnerable to high winds are those affected by a strong pressure difference from deep storms originating over the Pacific Ocean; an outbreak of very cold, Arctic air originating over Canada. Previous Occurrences: The worst damaging winds on record occurred in the 1962 Columbus Day Storm in which winds of hurricane force hit the Northwest, and resulted in damage to the Hood Canal Bridge.z Peak gusts of 160 mph hit the Washington coast, and 138 mph hit Corvallis, Oregon. In February, 1979, sustained winds of 80 mph with gusts up to 120 mph caused the Hood Canal Bridge to collapse .3 Storms have been so severe in recent years that Presidential Disaster Declarations have been issued in 2007, 2008, 2009 (2), 2015 and 2016(2). Hood Canal Bridge in a Windstorm. Unknown Date k; -cod Canal Bodge — February 13, 1979 (WSDOT) Probability of Future Events: High - Jefferson County experiences damaging winds every year during the storm season from October to April. The average hazard rating developed by Jefferson County jurisdictions is 31.26, which is the highest of all the hazards surveyed, thus showing that damaging winds are a regular and significant concern. HAZARD IDENTIFICATION AND VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT Most storms move into Washington from the Pacific Ocean with a southwest to northeast airflow. Maritime air reaching the Olympic Mountains rises upwards and cools. As this airflow reaches higher elevations and cools, there is less ability to hold moisture and precipitation occurs. Impacts and effects include loss of life damage to homes, businesses and critical transportation infrastructure; loss of timber resources; delays in emergency responses; damage or loss of recreation facilities; disruption of utilities; loss of jobs due to damaged equipment and facilities; school closures and business closures resulting in economic impacts. Jefferson County is subject to several severe local storms each year. As shown in Figure DW -1, Jefferson County is one of the most vulnerable counties in the state when it comes to damaging windstorm S.4 These storms have included high wind, snow, ice, rain, and hail. Snowstorms or blizzards are the most likely and potentially devastating phenomena, with the ability to isolate people from emergency services and to interrupt utility services and other lifelines. In 1996-1997, Vs. 5 109 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) snowstorms were also associated with other natural hazards such as flooding and landslides. In 2013, the Public Utility District No. 1 of Jefferson County (JPUD) purchased the assets of Puget Sound Energy in Jefferson County, thus entering into the business of providing electricity to the majority of Jefferson County. Since 2015, JPUD has had a volunteer liaison on the Jefferson County Incident Management Team who is present at all activations of the Jefferson County Emergency Operations Center. This has greatly improved coordination among agencies dealing with storm damage and live wires. Figure DW -1: Wind Storm Risk in Washington State Counties Most Vulnerable to High Winds N N CLIMATE CHANGE EFFECTS r rYt trT! Legend 11141 Wind Most vul nc rahlc Cau ntks Waah,ngton County Boundary Cr.-ry Poundary As global temperatures rise, the oceans heat up and expand. This provides fuel to increase the power of storms. The northern hemisphere will get more storms and more super storms because of changes in heat transport due to fresh water melt impeding the Thermohaline Circulation (THC).5 The focus has been on Atlantic storms because the fresh water melt from Greenland glaciers have been well -studied, but the potential for Pacific storms to become more powerful is present, too. Currently, there is too much natural variability in wind speeds and storm events to be able to make specific projections of future changes to the direction, intensity, or patterns of winds in the region.6 Vs. 5 110 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Conclusion Damaging windstorms are a fact of life in Jefferson County, which experiences multiple severe storms every year. The Department of Emergency Management meets with JPUD, and the city and county public works departments for pre -storm season planning and coordination. JPUD has a liaison on the county's Incident Management Team. The civilian population should be encouraged to have a 'storm kit" to be able to sustain themselves for multiple days without power for heating and cooking in the event a severe storm causes power outages.

Available: www.noprcd.org Figures — Damaging Winds DW -1 Wind Storm Risk in Washington State Vs. 5 112 September 2016 Jefferson County – City of Port Townsend Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Drought SUMMARY The Hazard: Drought is a condition of climatic dryness that is severe enough to reduce soil moisture and water below the minimum necessary for sustaining plant, animal, and human life systems. The National Weather Service defines drought as a deficiency of moisture that results in adverse impacts on people, animals, or vegetation over a sizeable area.' Impacts and Effects: In the event of a drought year, the adverse impacts to the local economy can present a broad array of effects to include the following: adverse impact on agriculture, especially dry land farms and grazing lands, increased danger of fires, loss of timber resources and resulting unemployment, serious impacts to recreation areas, soil erosion resulting in heavy silting of streams resulting in damage to salmon and other fishing, shortages of hydroelectric power resulting in higher prices, imposition of water conservation measures, curtailment of industries using large quantities of water causing unemployment, shortages of water for firefighting, increased prices for local produce. Previous Occurrences: The last significant occurrence in Jefferson County was in 2002 through 2003. Two of the driest summers on record—one of five driest winters in past 100 years. Port Townsend Paper Corporation curtailed some operations, and fishing was halted on rivers on the Olympic Peninsula. In 2014 and 2015, drought conditions caused the City of Port Townsend to limit the watering of lawns, but conditions never reached the threshold at which the paper mill would have had to curtail operations. Probability of Future Events: Moderate - Climatic changes may be impacting the frequency and duration of drought conditions on the Olympic Peninsula. Natural Hazard Risk Rating: The average natural hazard risk rating for drought for all districts in Jefferson County was estimated at 9.8, which would be considered low to medium -low. Figure DR -1, below, shows that Jefferson County is not among those Washington counties that are most at -risk and vulnerable to drought .2 It used to be a joke among Jefferson County fire districts that the Olympic Peninsula was nicknamed "the silicon forest", not because of high tech companies, but rather because it would never burn during fire season. Vs. 5 113 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Figure DR -1 Counties Most At -Risk and Vulnerable to Drought2 Counties Most At -Risk and Vulnerable to Drought Definition: Drought is a condition of climatic dryness that is severe enough to reduce soil moisture and water below the minimum necessary for sustaining plant, animal, and human life systems. The severity of drought is measured by the Palmer Index in a range of 4 (extremely wet) to -4 (extremely dry). The Palmer Index incorporates temperature, precipitation, evaporation and transpiration, runoff and soil moisture when designating the degree of drought.3 In the most general sense, drought originates from a deficiency of precipitation over an extended period, resulting in a water shortage for some activity, group, or environmental sector. Unlike most states though, Washington has a statutory definition of drought (Revised Code of Washington Chapter 43.836.400).4 According to state law, an area is in a drought condition when the water supply for the area is below 75 percent of normal, and water uses and users in the area will likely incur undue hardships because of the water shortage. Drought affects water levels for use by industry, agriculture, individual consumers, and recreation areas. Water shortages affect fire -fighting capabilities through reduced flows and pressures. Drought also affects power production; much of Jefferson County's power is produced by hydroelectric dams. When water levels drop, electric companies cannot produce enough power to meet demand and are forced to buy electricity from other sources and higher costs are passed to all consumers. History of Drought in Jefferson County Drought has not been a serious and frequent hazard for Jefferson County. There have indeed been years that have been exceptionally dry; however there has not been any recent history of several consecutive years where rainfall has been non-existent. Table DR -1 below, lists the most significant droughts affecting the State of Washington, including Jefferson County, since 1930. Vs. 5 114 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Table DR -1: Significant Droughts in Jefferson County and Washington State Since 19005 Date Occurrence July -Aug 1901 No measurable rainfall in western Washington from July 23 to August 25. August 1919 Occurred primarily in Western Washington July –August 1921 Drought occurred in all agricultural sectors. June – August 1922 From June 10 to August 10, the statewide precipitation average was only .10 March – Mid -August There was a total of 1,532 fires, causing 322,691 acres to burn and destroying 1924 25.3 million board feet of timber. July 1925 1,275 fires burned 142,355 acres which destroyed 69 million board feet of timber. Wheat and oat crop production was 73 percent and 81 percent of normal, respectively. June 21 – August 25, Little or no rainfall reported. 1553 fires burned 375,010 acres. Fire costs 1926 greater than any other year. August 1928 – March Drought unusually long and severe. Most stations reported less than 60% of 1929 normal rainfall for the entire period. July -Aug 1930 Drought affected the entire state. Most weather stations averaged 10 percent or less of normal precipitation. April 1934 -March 1937 The longest drought in the region's history - the driest periods were April- Sentember-December 193S. and luly-lanuary 1936-1937 Ma -Set 1938 Driest growingseason in Western Washington. 1952 Every month was below normal precipitation except June. The hardest hit areas were Puget Sound and the central Cascades. Jan -May 1964 Drought covered the southwestern part of the state. Precipitation less than 40 Spring, 1966 The entire state was dry. June -August 1967 Drought occurred in Washington. Oct 1976- Sept 1977 Worst drought in Pacific Northwest history. Below normal precipitation in Olympia, Seattle, and Yakima. Puget Sound precipitation levels averaged between 30 and 70% of normal, temperatures were higher than normal which resulted in algae growth and fish kills. Oct 1991 -Sept 1994 Stream flows were between 30 and 60% of normal. Agriculture products suffered greatly. 2001 On March 14, 2001, Gov. Gary Locke authorized the Department of Ecology to declare a statewide drought emergency; Washington was the first Northwest state to make such a declaration, which remained in effect until December 31, 2002-2003 Two of the driest summers on record—one of five driest winters in past 100 years. Port Townsend Paper Corporation curtailed some operations, and fishing was halted on rivers on the Olympic Peninsula 2009 One of the driest summers on record failed to adequately recharge Port Townsend's reservoir - City Lake. The city was within days of invoking drought procedures that would have stopped operations at the Port Townsend Paper Corporation (PTPC). In 2009, PTPC was so frail that any stoppage could have been the tipping point to force it into bankruptcy again. Vs. 5 115 September 2016 Jefferson County - City of Port Townsend Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Table DR -1: Significant Droughts in Jefferson County and Washington State Since 19005 Date Occurrence 2014-2015 Characterized as a "snowpack drought", Governor Inslee declares drought on March 13, 2015 in nine water resource inventory areas (WRIA). Each of WRIA 17, WRIA 20 and WRIA 2 include portions of Jefferson County. 2001 Drought Emergency On March 14, 2001, Gov. Gary Locke authorized the Department of Ecology to declare a statewide drought emergency; Washington was the first Northwest state to make such a declaration, which remained in effect until December 31, 2001. The central part of the state, from the crest of the Cascade Mountains to the east banks of the Okanogan and Columbia Rivers, suffered the most from water shortages. The Palmer Drought Index for March 2001 (Figure DR -2) graphically displays the height of drought conditions in Western Washington .6 These maps provide a comparison of drought conditions in Washington with those in the rest of the lower 48 states at the time.

An extreme drought has major crop and pasture losses, extreme fire danger, and widespread water shortages or restrictions. During this period the Port Townsend Paper Mill shut down to conserve the community's water supplies, thus electing to trade the stress of a short unemployment period for the overall community's need for water. 2014-2015 Drought Emergency A warm winter in 2014 gave indications that 2015 would be a poor water supply year. By February of 2015, it was clear that the snowpack would not rebound sufficiently. Based on April — September forecasts, the Washington State Association of Counties (WSAC) identified three areas in Washington, including the Olympic Peninsula that would meet the statutory definition of a drought. Based on recommendations, Governor Inslee directed Ecology to declare a drought for the three areas, the East Slope of the Central Cascades, The Olympic Peninsula, and the Walla Walla Basin. Figure DR -3, below, shows the areas of the drought declaration .7 Figure DR -4 shows the Palmer Drought Index at the peak of the drought for Jefferson County. Considered full at 40 feet, the Lords Lake Reservoir, water supply for Port Townsend, dropped precipitously. In July the city declared a Stage 1 drought emergency, which required conservation by citizens. By November, 2015, Lords Lake had dropped to 8' 5", and was approaching the level at which the City would activate agreements with Port Townsend Paper to curtail operations. Port Townsend uses approximately one million gallons of water per day; Port Townsend Paper uses 10 million gallons per day from the same sources. Fortunately, heavy rains in December, January and February 2016, broke the drought and brought the reservoir back up to full.

Droughts impact individuals, the agricultural industry, and other related sectors including fishing and recreation. There is increased danger of wildland fires associated with droughts. Low stream levels have affected reservoirs and hydroelectric power resources, bringing less inexpensive electricity from dams and potentially higher electric bills. Water intensive industries such as Port Townsend's pulp and paper mill may be forced to curtail some operations in times of severe drought as they did in the drought of 2002. Oftentimes drought is accompanied by extreme heat. Low stream flows combined with high temperatures, oxygen depletion, disease and lack of spawning areas have severely impacted fish resources within the county. Problems of domestic/municipal water supplies have been historically corrected by the addition of a reservoir, a larger pipeline, a new well, or some other facility. Short-term measures including water conservation practices and using large capacity water tankers to supply domestic potable water have been used. Forest fires, erosion, crop loss, price increases, low water level contamination in shallow wells, power outages, dry pastures, logging shutdowns, and fish kills have been experienced in Jefferson County during times of drought. All of the above effects result in economic and revenue losses for county residents, and the state. Vs. 5 118 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Climate Change Little average annual change — with dryer summers (-6% to -8%) average decrease. Continued declining snowpack with significant loss of snowpack in Olympics by 208010. This has the potential to damage the local economy. The City of Port Townsend and Port Townsend Paper Mill, together, use 11 million gallons of water per day taken from Lords Lake and the Big Quilcene River. The WRIA that recharges the rivers in the summer is dependent on a good snowpack during the winter. If the snowpack is small, there is a possibility for drought conditions to occur in the summer until the rainy season restarts. The City has an agreement that if Lords Lake drops to a minimum depth, the mill curtails operations until the water level comes back. This has the potential to cause the mill, the county's largest private employer, significant economic stress. As Figure DR -2 shows, the Quimper Peninsula in Jefferson County has considerable susceptibility for drought. Figure DR -2 — Drought Susceptibility for Washington State 2001-20079 B `i. ,° 1 ....:I I, Source: Washington Hazard Mitigation Plan Conclusion The Washington Hazard Mitigation Plan identifies the counties most at -risk and vulnerable to drought as those with a significant agriculture base. Accordingly, Jefferson County's risk and vulnerability are low to moderate, depending on the economic climate for paper and wood products at the time.

The earth's crust is divided into eight major pieces (or plates) and many minor plates. These plates are constantly moving, very slowly, over the surface of the globe. As these plates move, stresses are built up in areas where the plates come into contact with each other. Within seconds, an earthquake releases stresses that have slowly accumulated within the rock, in some instances over hundreds of years. Sometimes the release occurs near the surface, and sometimes it comes from deeper faults. Although. earthquakes are caused mostly by rupture of geological faults, they can also by other events such as volcanic activity, landslides, mine blasts, and nuclear tests. An earthquake's point of initial rupture is called its focus or hypocenter. The epicenter is the point at ground level directly above the hypocenter2. "The severity of an earthquake is described by both magnitude and intensity. These two frequently confused terms refer to different, but related, expressions. Magnitude, usually expressed as an Arabic numeral characterizes the size of an earthquake by measuring indirectly the energy released. By contrast, intensity indicates the local effects and potential for damage produced by an earthquake on the Earth's surface as it affects humans, animals, structures, and natural objects such as bodies of water. Intensities are usually expressed in Roman numerals, and represent the severity of the shaking resulting from an earthquake. Ideally, any given earthquake can be described by only one magnitude, but many intensities since the earthquake effects vary with circumstances such as distance from the epicenter and local soil conditions'." Charles Richter, the creator of the Richter magnitude scale, distinguished intensity and magnitude as follows: "I like to use the analogy with radio transmissions.... Magnitude can be compared to the power output in kilowatts of a broadcasting station. Local intensity on the Mercalli scale is then comparable to the signal strength on a receiver at a given locality; in effect, the quality of the signal. Intensity, like signal strength, will generally fall off with distance from the source, although it also depends on the local conditions and the pathway from the source to the point."'

More than 1,000 earthquakes are recorded in the state annually. Large earthquakes in 1949, 1965 and 2001 caused over $1 billion in damages throughout Puget Sound. The most recent large earthquake, the "Nisqually Earthquake" on February 28, 2001, was a 6.8 magnitude earthquake located 17.6 kilometers northeast of Olympia. All of the state, and the Puget Sound Basin area in particular, have a history of frequent earthquake activity. The 2001 Nisqually earthquake ("The Ash Wednesday earthquake") occurred at 10:54:32 local time on February 28. It had a moment magnitude of 6.8 and a maximum Mercalli intensity of VIII (Severe). The epicenter was in the southern Puget Sound, northeast of Olympia, but the shock was felt in Oregon, Canada, eastern Washington, and Idaho. This was one of several large earthquakes that occurred in the Puget sound region in the prior 52 years and caused property damage valued at between one and four billion dollars. One person died of a heart attack and several hundred were injured.5 All of East Jefferson County jurisdictions participating in the Hazard Mitigation Plan felt the shaking, and a few incurred substantial damage. The Port Ludlow Main Fire Station and Headquarters building had a wall crack that compromised the building. Fortunately, the firefighters were out on a call at the time, so no one was hurt. A replacement building was estimated at two million dollars6.

Its magnitude is estimated at between 8.7 and 9.2. At the time, there was no significant population living in multi -story houses and working in concrete and steel cities, as there are now, but there was a thriving native culture that has handed down stories of the event.

Damaging levels of shaking have occurred over much of the state since records started being kept in 1790. In addition, geologic evidence also indicates that large, prehistoric earthquakes have occurred in areas prior to the beginning of record keeping. Recorded damage sustained to date in Jefferson County has been relatively minor and has been restricted to some incidence of cracked foundations, walls, and pictures falling off of the wall. Recent Vs. 5 126 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) exploration indicates that a prehistoric, sunken forest has been identified off Point Wilson on the line of the South Whidbey Fault. Geologic studies of faults adjacent to the county boundaries suggest that the potential for serious earthquake damage is very real for the county.

The Juan de Fuca plate moves northeastward with respect to the North American plate at a rate of about 4 cm per year. The boundary where these two plates converge, the Cascadia Subduction Zone, lies approximately 50 miles offshore and extends from the middle of Vancouver Island in British Columbia to northern California. As it collides with North America, the Juan de Fuca plate slides (or subducts) beneath the continent and sinks into the earth's mantle. Jefferson County is vulnerable to the results of this continual movement of the earth's tectonic plates. Earthquake Hazards in Washington and Oregon N CANAGA uz. A � Was h i rrKjton +' Tni. Ai.

Cascadia Subduction - "Great earthquakes": The first type occurs along the Cascadia subduction fault, as a direct result of the convergence of these two plates. Although no large earthquakes have occurred along the offshore Cascadia Subduction Zone since historic records started to be kept, similar subduction zones worldwide do produce "great" earthquakes—magnitude 8 or larger. A subduction earthquake would be centered off the coast of Washington or Oregon where the plates converge. Such earthquakes typically have a minute or more of strong ground shaking and are quickly followed by damaging tsunamis and numerous large aftershocks. Subduction zone earthquakes have left compelling evidence from years past. These earthquakes were of enormous magnitude (8 to 9+) and recurred approximately every 550 years. The recurrence interval, however, has apparently been irregular, with the interval between earthquakes being as short as 100 years and as long as 1,100 years. 2. Juan de Fuca Plate - "Deep earthquakes": The second type of earthquake occurs within the Juan de Fuca plate as it sinks into the mantle. These are primarily deep earthquakes, approximately 25-100 kilometers in depth. Due to their depth, aftershocks are typically not felt in association with these earthquakes. The strongest of these recorded were the 1949 Olympia and the 1965 Sea -Tac earthquakes. Approximate "recurrence intervals" for intraplate earthquakes of various magnitude were estimated to be 35 years for magnitude 6.5 and 100 years for magnitude 7. Since 1870, there have been 7 earthquakes in the Puget Sound basin of magnitudes of 6.0 or larger. Generally, these earthquakes last between 20 — 60 seconds. 3. North American Plate — "Shallow earthquakes": The third type is an incident of shallow earthquakes that occur within the North American plate. Conventional theory indicates that they occur when stress is transmitted from the Cascadia subduction fault into the interior of the North American plate. This type of earthquake has occurred throughout Washington and most parts of Oregon. These earthquakes are primarily shallow with depths of 30 kilometers or less and generally have the magnitude of 5 to 5.5, however the largest recorded earthquake in Washington history was a 7.4 in 1872 and was thought to be shallow. The majority of earthquakes that occur in the Pacific Northwest region are of the shallow kind occurring in the North America plate. The 1872 North Cascades earthquake, the 1945 earthquake near North Bend, and the 1981 earthquake on the St. Helens seismic zone were all of this type. New evidence of a fault running east -west through south Seattle (the Seattle Fault) suggests that a major earthquake having a magnitude of 7 or greater affected the Seattle area about 1,000 years ago. Recent studies have found geologic evidence for large shallow earthquakes along the Seattle Fault 1,100 years ago within the central Puget Sound Basin. Massive block landslides into Lake Washington, marsh subsidence and tsunami deposits at West Point in Seattle, tsunami deposits at Cultus Bay on Whidbey Island, and large rock avalanches on the southeastern Olympic Peninsula have all been dated to approximately 1,100 years ago.

Two "new" faults were recently discovered running north - south from Whidbey to Vashon Island and possibly as far as Tacoma have the capacity to unleash earthquakes with magnitudes greater than 7.2. The principal ways that earthquakes cause damage are by: • strong ground shaking • landslides, • liquefaction, • subsidence, • tsunamis (seismic ocean waves), • and seiches (rhythmic movements of inland bodies of water). The actual movement of the ground in an earthquake is seldom the direct cause of injury or death. Most casualties result from falling materials. Severe earthquakes usually disrupt utilities including: power, telephone, gas, sewer, solid waste, and water. Disruption of utilities for a lengthy period of time would have an untold effect on the economics of the county. The effects of an earthquake in Jefferson County are hard to define because of the many unpredictable variables involved. Soil liquefaction occurs when water saturated sands, silts, or gravels are shaken so violently that the grains rearrange and the sediment loses strength, begins to flow out as sand boils or cause lateral spreading of overlying layers. Liquefaction causes loss of bearing strength under foundations or roadways, can trigger landslides, and can float low-density structures, such as partially empty fuel tanks, furnaces, and pilings. Liquefaction commonly causes ground failures such as ground cracking or lateral spreading above liquefied layers. Lateral spreads are spreads are landslides that can occur on very shallow slopes. The time of the earthquake has a large impact on the potential for human casualties. The potential for casualties is greatest during the heaviest hours of traffic and when people are concentrated in schools and business areas. Typically, the twelve-hour period from six o'clock in the morning to six o'clock in the evening has the greatest potential for human casualties. Site conditions and the types of soils or rock also affect the amount of shaking and the potential for damage. Solid rock or bedrock does not increase the shaking. Soft materials, however, such as mud, artificial fill and layers of sand and clay will make the consequences of ground shaking much worse. Jefferson County, particularly in the Port Townsend area that also has the highest concentration of people, has many areas of sand and clay soil. These soil materials serve to increase or amplify the effects of an earthquake. Steep slopes may experience landslides. Floodplains and areas of artificial fill will be prone to liquefaction. This may result in Vs. 5 130 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) pockets of local areas experiencing severe damage especially where the ground fails under buildings, water mains, pipelines or bridges. Building materials will greatly affect the impact of an earthquake on a structure. Unreinforced masonry structures, of which there are several in Port Townsend, are the most vulnerable while wood frame structures typically perform well in earthquakes. Additionally, individual buildings have different natural frequencies of vibration that depend on their height and structural design. Amplification of frequencies may affect some buildings more than others. Strong shaking is a hazard both near the epicenter of an earthquake and in areas where amplification occurs. The effects of an earthquake could also vary widely by the buildings and infrastructure first damaged. Damage to buildings that house emergency services such as fire stations and hospitals could lessen emergency response capabilities. Damage to roads, fallen trees, and failed bridges can also impair the delivery of emergency services. The majority of the county's bridges were built prior to 1960 when engineering incorporated improved building practices in the event of an earthquake. Earthquakes remain as one of the most significant hazard to people and property in Jefferson County. The Spaghetti Farm While most people on the Olympic Peninsula should be aware of the Cascadia Subduction Zone because of proselytization by local emergency managers and neighborhood emergency groups. What many probably do not realize is that they live in a veritable spaghetti farm of earthquake faults. What follows is a step-by-step walk around of the major named Quaternary faults that surround the Olympic Peninsula and have the potential to affect Jefferson County. Quaternary faults are those that have been recognized at the surface, which have moved in the past 1,600,000 years, a portion of the Quaternary epoch, and which are capable of a magnitude 6 or greater earthquake".

Vs. 5 138 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) As one can see, there are a multitude of opportunities for earthquakes to occur in and around Jefferson County. Many do occur and are unnoticed because they are small and undistinguishable from the vibrations inherent with a mechanized society. During the period from 1638 to 1928, just 2,500 earthquakes were reported in Oregon and Washington; during the period from 1928 to 1985, more than 18,500 events were reported20. Typically, each year over 1,000 earthquakes with a magnitude 1.0 or more are recorded in Washington and Oregon21. There are two scenarios, however, that have the potential to severely damage Port Townsend and East Jefferson County: a 9.0+ magnitude rupture of the Cascadia Subduction Zone, and a 7.4+ rupture of the Southern Whidbey Island (SWI) Faults, just one and one half miles from Port Townsend. Because of its proximity, the Hazus simulations show that a Southern Whidbey Island event can do more damage to the urban centers of East Jefferson County than a Cascadia event, even though the Cascadia event could be 1000 times stronger. Scientists and emergency managers have combined two tools to model likely outcomes from the above occurrences, shakemaps and Hazus simulations. Caveat: These tools are for planning purposes only — and no plan survives its implementation. Earthquake Shakemap Scenarios describe the expected ground motions and effects of specific hypothetical large earthquakes. In planning and coordinating emergency response, utilities, emergency responders, and other agencies are best served by conducting training exercises based on realistic earthquake situations, ones that they are most likely to face22. Shakemaps can be developed for both magnitude and intensity. Magnitude is the power of the earthquake, while intensity is the damage that is or can be done at some point distant. Remember the radio broadcast analogy: magnitude is analogous to the output power of a radio transmitter, e.g. 50,000 watts; intensity is how well you can pick up the radio signal at some distance — except, here, we are talking about destruction caused by the earthquake. In the scenarios below, we have shakemaps for both magnitude and intensity. Hazus is a free tool from FEMA that estimates losses to specific buildings for earthquake and flood. Earthquake building losses were modeled at $165 million for a Southern Whidbey Island event of magnitude M7.4 and $104 million for a Cascadia M9.0 event. The losses reported are for building losses only and do not include losses for other infrastructure, such as the roads, ferry system, etc23. The City of Port Townsend and the unincorporated areas of the county have a large percentage of buildings located in the moderate -high liquefaction zone. The City of Port Townsend will have a substantial impact if the Southern Whidbey Island event were to occur. The Hoh Tribe will experience the greatest impact from a Cascadia event24. The Southern Whidbey Island Earthquake Scenario Research has shown that the SWI faults are active and have generated at least four large earthquakes in the last 16,000 years25. Figure EQ -10 is a "shakemap scenario' representing a magnitude 7.4+ earthquake on the Southern Whidbey Island (SWI) fault26_ In the first SWI Scenario, a magnitude 7.4 earthquake occurs directly between Whidbey Island and Port Townsend. Port Townsend will experience violent to extreme shaking.

While buildings that have been seismically retrofitted may help the survivability of people inside, they are not likely to be functional because of the loss of utilities and infrastructure around them.

Not only will the downtown area be hit hard, but it is possible for a tsunami to be generated right at the mouth of Port Townsend Bay, giving only minutes between the shaking and a tsunami wave of unknown proportions. Vs. 5 141 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) The Cascadia Subduction Zone (CSZ) Earthquake Scenario A 1000 -kilometer rupture of the Cascadia Subduction Zone is what people are most aware of and most concerned about. Most recently, attention to this possibility was heightened by an article titled "The Really Big One," penned by Kathryn Schulz in The New Yorker (July 2015)28. It has also been written about in depth in the book, "Full Rip 9.0" by Sandi Doughton, Science Writer for the Seattle Times. This is a good thing in that by incentivizing people to prepare for "The Big One", they are helping them get ready for a smaller but more devastating event from the SWI fault. This is not to say that the Cascadia event will not be as bad as people think. We simply are not yet knowledgeable enough to make good predictions. The mantra at the Jefferson County EOC is "Please, Lord, not in my lifetime." To try to better prepare for such a catastrophic event, FEMA and State and local agencies in the Cascade region of the country created a functional exercise, called Cascade Rising (CRX) to allow emergency management personnel to validate plans and readiness by performing their duties in a simulated operational environment based on the Cascadia event29. It took two to three years of preparation for the multi -state, multi jurisdiction, multi -agency exercise to be planned and then executed over a week-long period in June 2016. Part of the effort to build verisimilitude into the exercise was to collect data on vulnerable structures to create maps and simulated photos of destruction. This helps to understand the impact the Cascadia event will have on the region. The Cascadia Region is home to a robust ferry transportation system that will be uniquely impacted by a major CSZ earthquake. This system—the largest In the nation—operates both domestic and international routes. serving destinations throughout Northwest Washington State and Southwest British Columbia. Full or partial failure of this system after a CSZ earthquake would create significant response challenges for island communities only accessible.. or most easily accessible by existing ferry routes.

It shows that East Jefferson County, which is the economic engine for the area, will receive strong to very strong shaking, The concern with this is that the shaking will go on for many minutes. "A magnitude 9.0 earthquake can last for five minutes or longer, and the amount of energy released is 1,000 times greater than that of a 7.0. The most powerful quakes could leave few if any masonry buildings standing, destroy bridges and toss objects into the air, according to the USGS.31 50, Figure EQ -12 - Cascadia M9.0+ Earthquake Scenario -- Earlhquak@ Planning 5cenaria •- hakeMap for casc9.0—$xpanded_seak Swat nw-ic aarmrk3 ()BW:,Njn 7. 20:6 LPTC 1.1 9.0 NA5.73 W123.1 WON s -135' -130' -125' -12(1' PLALgN G SCENAR1DCNLY •- M2p "Va mw a P**=aw.2ws•a3,za av:aa2i UTC The CSZ event shakemap (Figure EQ -13) shows that the majority of Jefferson County will experience "very strong" to "severe" shaking intensity, with the West Jefferson County getting pockets of "violent" shaking intensity32.

Hazus simulations, summarized in Table EQ -4, show that the destruction in Port Townsend can be significantly higher for an SWI fault event than for an CSZ event of M9.0+. And while it is clear from the caveats, that the damage estimates are understated, the relative levels of death and destruction make sense. An CSZ generated earthquake will be somewhat attenuated by the time the shock waves hit East Jefferson County, and the population will have about ninety minutes to get out of the way of any tsunami generated. An SWI generated earthquake will be right on the City's doorstep and give people about 10 - minutes to get off the Fort Worden beaches or out of the downtown area before any tsunami wave created hits. Once again, at certain times of the year, particularly during festivals, Port Townsend's population can expand from 9,800 to 50,000 at sea level. It is plausible that people will just be picking themselves off the ground when a tsunami wave hits.

Potential damage to either or both of those routes emphasizes Vs. 5 145 September 2016 Jefferson County – City of Port Townsend Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) one of the disadvantages to the "Just -In -Time" delivery systems used by local retailers and businesses. The "Just -In -Time" inventory system has its advantages by eliminating the need for suppliers to have large warehouses to hold inventories. But there are also disadvantages to this system for the end-user. Of specific concern is the time of exceptional need for specific goods and supplies following a major disaster. Because of damaged roads or unavailable goods from suppliers, the shelves would remain empty and demands for specific products unmet. In a study done by the Cascadia Region Earthquake Workgroup (2005), resupply issues for businesses in the Puget Sound area (to include not just grocery stores, but hospitals, pharmacies, emergency services, transportation related services, fuel, building materials and more) could quickly reach critical stages because of damages to previously used methods of delivery caused by a major disaster. Getting supplies to the area by other means, should the need occur, would be at the top of the resource acquisition list for emergency management staff but the timeliness of acquiring those supplies would be dependent upon a number of things to include the overall impact of the disaster (how big an area was damaged and to what extent); availability of supplies (resources going to the hardest hit areas with greater populations first) and securing alternate means of delivery of needed supplies to include manpower, food, water and medical supplies and whatever else might be critically needed to save lives). Of note is the possibility there will be long term interruption of the supply chain on the peninsula after a M9.0 earthquake. Recovery could take years with some resources never recovering. "Contrary to what some believe is the case, an emergency management office—no matter the size of the community it serves --does not have a giant warehouse full of food, water and other supplies to distribute to residents," said Bob Hamlin, Program Director of the Jefferson County Department of Emergency Management. "Our primary focuses are to provide public education and information, coordinate the response to a disaster, assessment and coordinate the delivery of state or federal assistance; support agency and jurisdictional partners, and run the Emergency Operations Center when it is activated for a countywide emergency," he added.35 A surrey recently completed by Chapman rUnivers , revealed that most people in the i}_ S_ have unrealistic expectations of what would happen if a major disaster—man-made or natural ene to occur "We found a ma or dosconnect,between ,people's expectations of what wergild happen in a disaster and the reality of a disaster's aftermath," said Arai Gordon, Ph_D_.r and lead researcher on the disaster portion of the survey - e number one excuse Ven her Americans for not having air emergencyr kit - that they expect first responders to come to their aid immediately – this I's an unrealistic belief in the bake of a n a fural disaster_ " (CBS News) Vs. 5 146 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend Climate Change Not Applicable Conclusion Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Jefferson County is among the counties considered most at -risk and vulnerable to earthquake. Our evaluation is that the County has a very high risk and a very high vulnerability. Figure EQ -15 - Counties Most Vulnerable to Earthquake 36 WASHINGTON STATE Counties Most Vulnerable to Earthquake nlr W" Oregon Moss Yelnemble lurisdic[bns Most Vulnerable lunW tdons County 9uundary ^.. hrtarstxes Although scientists have tried for decades to predict earthquakes, no one has discovered a method that can be applied with regular success. For some areas with well -understood patterns of seismicity, it may be possible to forecast decades -long time windows when large earthquakes are likely to occur. However, the Pacific Northwest has only been monitored for a couple of decades; not long enough to allow us to see what patterns, if any, exist here. Seismologists are still trying to understand what types of earthquakes are possible here, and what kind of shaking we will experience from future earthquakes (depending on the earthquake location and size, and the site geology and topography). Mitigation activities, including the following, should be instituted and maintained to lessen potential problems: 1. Examination, evaluation, and enforcement of effective building codes Vs. 5 147 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) 2. Geologically hazardous areas, as defined by the Growth Management Act, should be identified and land use policies adopted to lessen risk. 3. Public information on what to do before, during, and after an earthquake should be provided to citizens. Emphasis must be place on individual and family preparation for not just earthquake related disaster, but for all disasters. Since 2004, the City of Port Townsend has actively sought to seismically retrofit public buildings that are critical assets. City Hall, the police station, the city's Historic Carnegie Library, City Water Distribution Center, tunnel lids and the City's water tower have all been completed or are in the process of being seismically retrofitted. The city is also developing plans for a "Resiliency Center" to deal with the post -disaster recovery needs after a major event. Earthquake hazards can be reduced by advance preparation; such as coordinating emergency communications and activities across jurisdictional lines, preparing personal emergency plans, and considering seismic hazards in land use plans, building codes, and planning for medical, utility, and emergency facilities. Education programs are currently in place to facilitate the development of individual, family and neighborhood preparedness.

Also included is information as to how mitigation measures willbe prioritized, implemented, and ministered at the jurisdictional level. It is the intent of this planning effort that the mitigation goals and multiple hazard mitigation action items included in this section of the plan are applicable to all entities that participated in the development of this plan to the extent that their governing bodies authorize. A listing of multijurisdictional mitigation strategies and projects suggested by stakeholders and citizens during the plan - development process is also included in this section of the plan. In addition, each participating jurisdiction and special purpose district has compiled a listing ofproposed mitigation strategies and/orprojects specific to their community. These entity -specific mitigation strategies and/or projects can be found in SECTION IV of this plan. Mitigation Goals: The natural hazard mitigation goals listed in this portion of the plan are multi jurisdictional in nature and are intended to help guide the direction of and prioritize future natural hazard mitigation activities at the local level aimed at reducing risk and preventing loss from natural hazards. The plan goals describe the overall direction that Jefferson County and Port Townsend agencies, organizations, special districts, private industry and citizens can take toward mitigating risk from natural hazards. The goals are the guiding principles from the broad direction of the mission statement to the specific recommendations of the action items. They are: (1) Protect Life and Property • Implement activities that assist in protecting lives by making homes, businesses, infrastructure, critical facilities, and other property more resistant to losses from natural hazards. • Improve hazard assessment information to make recommendations encouraging preventive measures for existing development in areas vulnerable to natural hazards • Enhance Jefferson County Neighborhood Emergency Response Teams to provide citizens from all areas of Jefferson County with the information and tools they need to help them, their families, and their neighbors in the hours and days immediately following an emergency or disaster event. • Encourage homeowners and businesses to purchase insurance coverage for damages caused by natural hazards. • Encourage homeowners and businesses to take preventative actions in areas that are especially vulnerable to natural hazards. Vs. 5 375 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) (2) Public Awareness • Develop and implement education and outreach programs to increase public awareness of the risks associated with natural hazards. • Provide information on tools, partnership opportunities, and funding resources to assist in implementing mitigation activities. • Continue the current flood awareness programs conducted by various jurisdictions as part of the National Flood Insurance Program Community Rating System. • Create an earthquake awareness program conducted by various jurisdictions in which the vulnerability to earthquakes is high. • Enhance the awareness programs for Wildland — Urban Interface fire risks, particularly with Homeowners Associations in wildland settings. (3) Natural Systems • Balance watershed planning, natural resource planning, and land use planning with natural hazard mitigation to protect life, property, the economy, and the environment. • Preserve, rehabilitate, and enhance natural systems to serve natural hazard mitigation functions. (4) Partnerships and Implementation • Encourage leadership within private and public sector organizations to prioritize and implement local, county, and regional hazard mitigation activities. • Strengthen inter jurisdiction and inter -agency communication and coordination and partnering of jurisdictions and agencies within Jefferson County to foster the establishment and implementation of natural hazard mitigation strategies and/or projects designed to benefit multiple jurisdictions. • Develop a partnership with the local and regional newspapers to produce a series of in-depth articles on each natural hazard and both personal and public mitigation techniques. • Develop and strengthen coordination and cooperation with local business and industries that are particularly vulnerable to natural hazards in Jefferson County. (5) Emergency Services • Strengthen Emergency Management capabilities to prepare for, and to respond to disasters of all types. • Encourage the establishment of policies at the local level to help insure the prioritizing and implementation of mitigation strategies and/or projects designed to benefit critical/essential facilities, services, and infrastructure. • Where appropriate, coordinate and integrate natural hazard mitigation activities with existing local emergency operations plans. • Strengthen emergency operations by increasing collaboration and agencies, non-profit organizations, business, and industry. • Improve the interoperability capabilities among Emergency Services. • Improve the survivability of communications and disaster response Service entities. coordination among public effectiveness of Emergency Vs. 5 376 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Multiple -Hazard Mitigation Action Items: For the purpose of this plan, multiple -hazard action items are those strategies and/or activities that primarily pertain to damaging winds, drought, earthquake, flood, heat waves, land movement, public health emergencies, tsunami / seiche, wildland — urban fire and winter storms. Action items were not identified for avalanche, tornados or volcanoes as explained below: The avalanche hazard in Jefferson County does not currently affect any populated areas. Due to the fact that avalanche is a concern only to those persons engaged in isolated, backcountry activities, specific mitigation action items were not identified for this hazard. Tornado and volcanic events that directly affect Jefferson County are so rare that specific mitigation activities other than public education are not addressed. The action items included in this section of the plan may be short-term (ST), long-term (LT), or on-going (OG) in nature. Long-term activities typically take longer than 3 years. Some actions may include activities that jurisdictional agencies may implement with existing resources and authorities. Other more complex actions may require new or additional resources or authorities as well as multi -agency and/or multi jurisdictional partnering. Some ofthe mitigation actions and/orprojects included in this plan are focused on reducing the effects ofvarious natural hazards on new buildings and infrastructure. Examples of these mitigation actions and/or projects include: Mitigation strategies and/or ordinances and codes regarding building regulations and construction set- backs etbacks from unstable or steep slopes, alluvial fans and other critical areas. Community Rating System Program activities designed to reduce or limit damage from flooding to structures built within the 100 -year floodplain. Some of the mitigation actions and/or projects included in this plan are focused on reducing the effects of various natural hazards on existing buildings and infrastructure. Examples of these mitigation actions and/or projects include: • Construction and/or modification of critical facilities. • Moving critical facilities out of danger zones. • Buy-out and/or elevation of flood repetitive loss properties. Multiple -Hazard Action Item #1 (OG -MH -0): Each ofthe primary jurisdictions and special districts participating in the Plan shall adopt the Jefferson County— City of Port Townsend Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan as its own official plan.

Due to local budget constraints, most of the mitigation measures incorporated into this plan are dependent upon local jurisdictions receiving outside funding; as a general rule, local funding is not available. As a result, local jurisdictions are unsure as to when these mitigation measures will be implemented and the conditions and/or requirements under which implementation may occur. Unless stated otherwise within an individual entities portion of SECTION IV of this plan, the individual entities participating in this plan should prioritize their proposed mitigation measures based on the following factors: • Mitigation measures that have a positive benefit/cost analysis with a BCR > 1.0. • Mitigation measures that reduce or eliminate repetitive loss properties. • Mitigation measures that are multi jurisdictional and or multi -agency in nature. • Mitigation measures that provide the greatest good for the greatest number. • Mitigation measures that have broad-based public and/or elected official approval. • Mitigation measures for which funding has already been secured. • Mitigation measures that qualify for alternate and/or matching funding. The Jefferson County Natural Hazard Planning Committee will maintain an expertise in Benefit/Cost Analysis to help the small jurisdictions and special districts that do not have the resources to maintain that capability on their own. For jurisdictions and Indian tribes with a mitigation planning committee, the mitigation planning committee is charged with the responsibility to develop a prioritized preliminary list of mitigation measures. This prioritized list is then recommended to the jurisdictional or tribal governing body for final prioritization. While it is highly recommended that each of the entities participating in this plan utilize the above -listed factors in prioritizing their mitigation measures, it is recognized that final prioritization of mitigation measures is determined by the entities elected governing body. A change in local elected officials, changing environmental requirements, public acceptance of a project, or the occurrence of an actual disaster event may dramatically affect the priority ranking of mitigation measures at the local level. If federal funding is involved in the implementation of a hazard mitigation project, the jurisdiction, Indian tribe, or special purpose district will conduct a costibenefit analysis based on guidelines provided by the United States Department of Homeland Security (FEMA) and the Washington State Military Department, Emergency Management Division on how to determine cost-effectiveness of mitigation projects and how to calculate the benefit -cost ratio. The purpose of the benefit -cost analysis is to determine if the benefits of the project exceed the federal costs of the project. Both the Hazard Mitigation Grant Program and the Pre -Disaster Mitigation Grant Program require a benefit -cost ratio of at least 1.0 for a project to be considered for funding. While it may be important to emphasize a positive cost/benefit analysis in the prioritizing of mitigation measures, it is also important to recognize the influence of local political factors, sovereign authority, community needs, traditional and cultural customs and values, historic properties, andhabitat and environmental issues upon the selection of specific mitigation measures. Vs. 5 385 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Implementation of Mitigation Measures: Mitigation measures that are already in place at the jurisdiction level through existing plans, codes, and ordinances as well as programs such as the National Flood Insurance Program Community Rating System Program or the Neighborhood Emergency Response Team Program are current and on-going programs funded through existing and established budgets. The implementation of new and/or additional mitigation measures is dependent upon the approval of the local elected governing body such as the board of county commissioners, city or town council, tribal senate or tribal council, school board, or special purpose district board of commissioners as well as obtaining funding from outside sources that have not been secured at this time. As a general rule, local funds are not available for implementation of new mitigation measures. Funding for mitigation measures is largely dependent upon individual entities applying for and receiving federal and/or state hazard mitigation grant funding. For each action item listed and described above (as well as the entity -specific mitigation measures contained in SECTION M every effort has been made to identify lead agencies, current or possible funding sources, and a time- line for implementation as part of the planning process. It should be noted that short term action items and/or mitigation measures are those activities that are expected to be completed in less than 3 years from the receipt of funding by the local entity. Long term action items and/or mitigation measures are those activities that are expected to require more than 3 years to completion from the receipt of funding by the local entity. Those action items and/or mitigation measures that are current and on-going have been so indicated. Funding of Mitigation Measures: The entities participating in the Jefferson County Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan have a variety of local, state, and federal resources available to support the implementing and administering of the mitigation actions. The Jefferson Natural Hazards Mitigation Planning Committee will continue to identify additional resources to support the implementation of the action items. At this time, possible implementation funding sources include the following: Local Funding Sources Local implementation resources vary based on each entity's scope of function(s), authorities, and operational capability and capacity. They may include: • Use of zoning ordinance and building codes. • Enforcement of flood plain management ordinance. • Participation in the NFIP Community Rating System. • Incorporation into local emergency response plan(s). • Incorporation into local economic development plan(s). • Use and support of existing local personnel (planners, floodplain managers, city engineers, GIS specialists, emergency managers). • Capital improvement project funding. • Authority to levy taxes, special bonds. • Fees for services. Vs. 5 386 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) • Other sources yet to be identified. The current economic condition and funding level ofthe participating local entities drastically limits the use of local resources. State or federal funding will be needed to accomplish many ofthe action items and mitigation measures referenced in this plan. State Funding Sources • Growth management act requirements. • Comprehensive plan requirements. • State administered Hazard Mitigation Grant Program, Flood Mitigation Act and Pre -Disaster Mitigation Program. • Department of Ecology Flood Control Assistance Account Program (FCAAP). • Department of Transportation Emergency Relief Program. • Office of Community Development Community Development Block Grants • Programs administered by the Washington State Transportation Improvement Board • Programs administered by the Washington State County Road Administration Board • Other sources as yet to be identified.

Vs. 5 387 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) CITIZEN SUGGESTIONS & ANALYTICAL REPORTS RECOMMENDED MITIGATION STRATEGIES AND PROJECTS The following list is a compilation of comments and suggestions made by various stakeholders, interested parties, and the public regarding possible mitigation strategies and projects. Those that start with an asterisk M are known to be underway, regardless of whether the idea came from the public or was internally generated. The following mitigation strategies and/or projects have been suggested by various stakeholders and citizens as part of the plan development process. Some may be in conflict with existing policies and procedures; others may be viable but lack funding. All will be looked at to see if and how they can fit into a comprehensive mitigation effort. Some of these strategies and/or projects are currently funded, on-going programs within many of the participating communities. However, funding for some of these strategies and/or projects is currently very limited; for many of these strategies and/or projects, local funding is simply not available at this time. Funding for the majority of these mitigation strategies and/or projects is heavily dependent upon local entities receiving future federal and/or state hazard mitigation grant funding. The organization of the ideas are by hazard in the same order as the hazards were presented in Section II, Multi - jurisdictional Hazard Identification. This is followed by excerpts from two reports that were developed to assess the vulnerability of Jefferson County and its inhabitants, and to assess the Olympic Peninsula's climate situation and propose how to adapt to changing conditions.

DROUGHT: • Much of the drought mitigation goals coincide with fire mitigation goals. • Conservation and assistance for private water districts in replenishing tanks were discussed. It is very expensive to replenish the private water districts tanks after they have been drained for fire. Perhaps a payback system could be established? • *Work with Port Townsend Paper on water consumption policies for drought. Vs. 5 389 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) EARTHQUAKE: Jefferson County is located in seismic zone 3 as determined by the Uniform Building Code.

However, peaceful and scenic benefits pale when considering challenges of providing emergency services to the more than 750 homes. Connected by a single 50+ year old bridge which also carries all utilities of water, power and communications, the separation poses the threat of not only being cut-off from help, but potentially not being able to communicate that help is needed. Cell phone coverage of the island is less than 50% meaning that calling for help in such a circumstance is severely limited. A windstorm two years ago provided real demonstration of this potential by downing power, phone and cable lines on the mainland side of the bridge for several days and blocking the sole access road for a number of hours due to a downed tree. Simply stated, it is highly likely that in the event of a severe storm, or earthquake and subsequent tsunami, Marrowstone Island residents will be unreachable for an extended period of time. Therefore, specific consideration should be given to Marrowstone Island when building the Jefferson County— City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan.. Marrowstone Island has responded to this challenge for many years by taking local initiative to provide on -island services. Residents raised money and purchased their own ambulance 30+ years ago and established trained volunteer emergency medical and firefighter personnel. They built a small "fire station" to house the ambulance and later, a water tanker truck. More recently they have established a 2 -way radio network of ham and FRS radio equipped residents to enable contact with the 911 emergency dispatch center on the mainland. Further, there is an active emergency preparedness committee on the island to help residents be individually prepared to help themselves and their immediate neighbors. The "fire station" on Marrowstone Island was transferred to Chimacum Fire Department in 19801 and laterabsorbed by East Jefferson Fire and Rescue Department (EJFR). However, with primary response provided by this station located on the mainland, the Marrowstone station has been minimally maintained and is not staffed. Provision of emergency services following a major natural disaster may be dependent on resources located on the island or brought to the island by boat. There have been discussions with EJFR regarding upgrading the Marrowstone Station and providing resident staff and equipment at least during the summer months when there is an influx of tourists to Fort Flagler State Park. There is strong interest by all parties, but funding has not allowed realization of this much needed improvement. Marrowstone Island requests inclusion of a commitment for upgrade to the island fire station, and disaster preparations such as radio communications, water, food and medical supplies, when finalizing the Jefferson County Natural Disaster Hazard Mitigation Plan.

Flooding may occur as an overflow of water from water bodies, such as a river, lake, or ocean, in which the water overtops or breaks levees, resulting in some of that water escaping its usual boundaries or it may occur due to an accumulation of rainwater on saturated ground in an area flood. z The National Flood Insurance Program defines flood as, "A general and temporary condition of partial or complete inundation of two or more acres of normally dry land area or of two or more properties (at least one of which is the policyholder's property) from: • Overflow of inland or tidal waters; or • Unusual and rapid accumulation or runoff of surface waters from any source; or • Mudflow (liquid and flowing mud moving across surface); or • Collapse or subsidence of land along the shore of a lake or similar body of water as a result of erosion or undermining caused by waves or currents of water exceeding anticipated cyclical levels that result in a flood as defined above.113 Flooding can be caused by excessive precipitation causing rivers and lakes to overflow their banks; tidal floods, or flash floods can be caused by intensive short bursts of precipitation in areas that cannot absorb or retain the water. Previous Occurrences: Flooding is a frequent occurrence on the plains near the coasts. Between 1938 and 1966 (28 years), the Duckabush River flooded 26 times. Between 1931 and 1982 (51 years), the Dosewallips River flooded 23 times. In 2002, the flooding of Dosewallips changed the river course near Highway 101. In 2003, Dosewallips flooded the streets near Brinnon 3.5 feet5. In the same flood event, Duckabush flooded the Fire District #4 Station 6. In December 2014, the Duckabush flooded Fire District 44's Station 4-2 again, resulting in a $40,000 clean-up bill and $14,000 of damage to their apparatus'. In 2015, Jefferson County incurred nearly $1.6 million in road repair costs due to landslides and flooding in the "West End" Three hundred thousand was directly to flood damage to the Oil City Road.' Table FL -1 lists all the Presidential Disaster Declarations for flooding in Jefferson County (RED) and adjacent counties (BLUE) from 1956 through July 2016.9 Adjacent counties have been included because there have been times when flooding and storm damage in adjacent counties were enough to warrant a Presidential Disaster Declaration for them, but were not high enough to do so in Jefferson County — even though the flooding and / or storms did not respect the county line. Probability of Future Events: High — The probability of severe winter storms in Jefferson County is 100%. Jefferson County's climate does not normally get the severe cold resulting in blizzards, therefore, winter storms contain a lot of rain that often causes flooding. Natural Hazard Risk Rating: The average natural hazard risk rating for avalanches for all districts in Jefferson County was estimated at 19.9, which is right on the boundary for moderate risk.

There are basically three types of floods possible in Jefferson County. River building floods: River building floods are caused by heavy, prolonged rain, melting snow, or both. Prolonged heavy rains and high freezing levels are the common cause for river flooding in Jefferson County. Runoff from the melting of low elevation snow often contributes to these floods. The spring runoff of the mountain snowpack also drives some river flooding in Jefferson County, especially during times of spring rains. Tidal floods: Tidal floods occur when high tides, strong winds, heavy swell, and low atmospheric pressure combine to produce flooding. Flash floods: Although possible, flash floods are not as common in Jefferson County as they are in Eastern Washington. Flash floods are characterized by a very rapid quick rise of the water level in a small river, stream or dry wash. In the most extreme case, a flash flood is a literal wall of water moving down a steep canyon or ravine. The brief intense rainfall from a thunderstorm is usually the cause of a flash flood. Flooding in Jefferson County occurs in the winter months. Coastal flooding is caused by storm surges which result from high spring tides and strong winter storm winds. Newspapers have reported wave run up during heavy wind storms in Port Townsend. The rivers swell during winter months when heavy rains and snowmelt produce the highest runoff flows. The greatest and most frequent flooding occurs at river mouths where the high river waters are held back by concurrent ocean water surges and heavy rains characteristic of winter storms.10 The frequency of major flooding is well -correlated with precipitation levels. Figure FL -1 on the following page shows 100 -year 24-hour precipitation data. The high precipitation areas, shown in blue, green and yellow on Figure FL -1 include all of the counties with a history of frequent major flood events. As one can see from the map, there are locations in Jefferson County where there would have to be a real toad -strangler of a rain to exceed a 100 -year event. The Olympic Mountains keep the rain on the Pacific side of the mountains and create such locations as the Hoh Rain Forest, which gets 12 —14 feet of rain each year.

MWCreellad: January 2009 c;OayWl (4) ZM.ysu sGa,S Floods on the rivers of Eastern Jefferson County, specifically the Duckabush, Dosewallips, and both the Big and Little Quilcene Rivers, generally are a combination of two types—the river building floods with help twice each day from the tidal floods. These rivers are short rivers with steep sided banks. Tidal changes from Hood Canal combined with increased runoff from the Olympics have produced a history of frequent flooding. Occurring principally during the winter months, flooding has inflicted loss of life and property, damage to infrastructure and has been the cause for suspension of economic activity in - •� communities near the Big and Little Quilcene, Duckabush, and Dosewallips Rivers in Eastern Jefferson County. l ' Eastern Jefferson County has short, steep rivers that rise quickly and recede quickly.

Over the last 10 -years, the average annual cost to the county for repairs due to flood and landslide damage has been $750,000.12 Kefl-v R&kl. Brroaowir_ 2010 t-'foomfi )?,. Photo by Juf an Rra-I Rivers in Western Jefferson County are highly erosive to the low riverbanks of the flood plains. Many acres of farm and timberland disappear annually. Road and bridge washouts on Highway 101 in the "West End" have necessitated sandbagging and other emergency measures for members of the Hoh Tribe residing on reservation lands at the end of the Lower Hoh Road. Big ¢uidrma Rn.er, 2171 Q Flooding, Photo by Julian Ray, Much of the recent development in the County has occurred either in or near flood plains. This development increases the likelihood of flood damages in two ways. First, new developments near a flood plain add structures and people in flood areas. Secondly, new construction alters surface water flows by diverting water to new courses or increases the amount of water that runs off impermeable pavement and roof surfaces. This second effect diverts waters to places that were previously safe from flooding. Floods have regularly occurred throughout Western Washington. Principally during the winter and early spring months, Jefferson County's flooding typically follows long rainy periods and / or rapid warming when Olympic Mountain snowpack melts rapidly into rivers and streams on all sides of the mountain slopes. That being said, Figure FL -2 shows that Jefferson County is not among the counties considered most vulnerable to flooding" Vs. 5 158 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Figure FL -2 — Washington Counties Most Vulnerable to Flooding 13 N' W z:carn [cu^ty u z5 se �!` I r $ddo JNan County- .

There are pockets, however of vulnerability near river flood zones. Since a picture is worth a thousand words, the following gallery of figures (Table FL - 2) extracted from the Washington State Enhanced Hazard Mitigation Plan shows evidence for the above conclusions: • The dollar value of assets at risk from flooding is less compared to other counties (Figure FL -314) • Frequency of flooding is moderate compared to other counties (Figure FL -41s); • Jefferson County only has 2.9% of its land area at risk for riverine flooding (Figure FL -516) • Washington State Watershed Flood Risk Map (Figure FL -617). • Jefferson County only has three NFIP categorized repetitive loss properties and no Severe Repetitive Loss (SRL) properties within its borders, Vs. 5 159 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Jurisdictions most vulnerable to flooding were determined by the State by scoring each county based on the above factors: frequency of flooding that causes major damage, the percentage of the county in floodplain, the number of flood insurance policies currently in effect, the number of flood insurance claims paid, the number of repetitive flood loss properties, and the number of severe repetitive loss properties. A maximum value of 28 points was possible (King County received this score). Jefferson County received 7 points. The entire table and analysis can be found in the "Flood Hazard Profile" of the Washington State Enhanced Hazard Mitigation Plan at http://mil.wa.gov/uploads/pdf/HAZ-MIT- PLAN/Flood_Hazard_Profile.pdf.'x The ten counties with the highest score are considered most vulnerable to flooding and are highlighted in Table FL -2. Note that county totals include properties in the unincorporated areas of the County as well as the properties inside of the limits of the incorporated cities and towns within those Counties. Why is this important? It is not just a "humble brag" to say that Jefferson County should be recognized as among the top 10 counties most vulnerable to flooding (assuming that is something one wants to brag about). It is a recognition that in a major flood disaster Jefferson County, because of its relatively small population, will not be among the counties getting emergency resources quickly because those resources will be focused on more densely populated areas. Consequently, local authorities have to develop strategies that rely on resilience, self-reliance, and a trained -to -handle disasters population.

Three risk factors were used: population density (60%), NFIP Policies and Claims (30%) and Floodplain Area (10%). Port Townsend was included in the Puget Sound sector, which was the second highest risk due to Seattle and its population. End of Gallery NFIP In 1968, Congress created the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) to help provide a means for property owners to financially protect themselves. The NFIP offers flood insurance to homeowners, renters, and business owners if their community participates in the NFIP. Participating communities agree to adopt and enforce ordinances that meet or exceed FEMA requirements to reduce the risk of flooding." The following NFIP statistics were used in determining the vulnerability ranking of Washington counties: • Number of Flood Insurance Policies in Effect • Number of Flood Clams Paid Vs. 5 164 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Number of Repetitive Loss Properties, and Number of Severe Repetitive Loss Properties. Repetitive Loss Properties — "A Repetitive Loss (RL) property is any insurable building for which two or more claims of more than $1,000 were paid by the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) within any rolling ten-year period, since 1978. A RL property may or may not be currently insured by the NFIP. Currently there are over 122,000 RL properties nationwide.1120 Severe Repetitive Loss Properties (SRL) — "The SRL group consists of any NFIP-insured residential property that has met at least 1 of the following paid flood loss criteria since 1978, regardless of ownership: • 4 or more separate claim payments of more than $5,000 each (including building and contents); or • 2 or more separate claim payments (building payments only) where the total of the payments exceeds the current value of the property. In either case, two of the claim payments must have occurred within 10 years of each other. Multiple losses at the same location within 10 days of each other are counted as 1 loss, with the payment amounts added together. 1121 Only a small percentage of the homes in mapped flood plains are insured against flood loss. Many homeowners who live in flood plains carry fire insurance, however they do not carry flood insurance. Only about 20 to 30 percent of the homes in floodplains have insurance for flood losses. Jefferson County and the City of Port Townsend are both participants in the NFIP program. Their statistics are presented in their community profiles and below in "Risk Map Assessment." RISKMAP ASSESSMENT RiskMAP replaced the Flood Map Modernization program in 2010. Flood Map Modernization was established in 1997 to digitally update FEMA flood maps. Under the Map Moderations Program, several counties in the Washington were mapped, providing countywide Digital Flood Insurance Rate Maps (DFIRMs). Jefferson County's turn came in 2014, with the Preliminary DFIRMS available for comment in February 2016. Figure FL -7 below shows the scope of the DFIRMS under development. Additionally, the Risk Map project does Hazus simulations and pulls the latest NFIP statistics for the area being studied.

Flood damage to croplands, structures, land resources, roads and utilities exceed damage cause by all other natural hazards in Jefferson County. Building in floodplains must be regulated to ensure that floodplain development is limited to utilization such as parks, golf courses, farmlands, etc., to help ensure that land use is maximized while the potential for damages is minimized. Jefferson County developed the "Jefferson County Flood Damage Prevention Ordinance, No. 18- 1120-95" to better regulate and direct development in flood plain areas. It regulates planning, construction, operation, maintenance and improvements in these areas for both public and private endeavors. The ordinance helps ensure that work is properly planned, constructed, operated and maintained to avoid adversely influencing the regimen of the stream. It provides a sound basis for planning to ensure the security of life, health, and property damage by floodwaters in floodplain areas. The public should be made aware and reminded of hazardous areas and be provided information on flood insurance, mitigation, preparedness, response and recovery. Local plans should reflect warning, evacuation, housing and other emergency procedures. Plans must also include and emphasize the need to be aware of potential disease, hazardous material releases, or debris that may affect floodwaters. In years past, people living on or near rivers have taken it upon themselves to remove gravel deposits thus helping to maintain river and stream channels. As greater emphasis has been placed on maintaining salmon spawning areas, this type of activity is now restricted and requires hydraulic permits for any activity in the riverbeds. As a result, deposits of gravel have built up over the years, and the river channels have become increasingly shallow, exacerbating the chances of flooding. Low levees constructed along several rivers in eastern Jefferson County have failed in the past. Although levees have been reinforced on the Dosewallips River, many levees on the mouth of the Big Quilcene River are the same elevation as the riverbed. The National Weather Service has extensive weather monitoring systems and usually provides adequate and timely warning. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) provides coverage of the Puget Sound area, but currently does not cover the western portion of the county. N.O.A.A. WEATHER RADIO (NWR) is a source of initial warnings and alerts.

Severe heat waves have caused catastrophic crop failures, thousands of deaths from hyperthermia, and widespread power outages due to increased use of air conditioning. A heat wave is considered extreme weather, and a danger because heat and sunlight may overheat the human body'. "hi 2015, 45 people died nation-wide as a result of extreme heat, up dramatically from the 2014 total of 20 but down from the 92 fatalities in 2013. This number is well below the 10 -year average for heat related fatalities, 113. In 2015, the most dangerous place to be was in a permanent home, likely with little or no air conditioning, where 15 people died4. As in the past, extreme heat most strongly affected adults aged 50+, with 33 deaths (73%). Sadly, the next highest age -range was children 0-9, many left in vehicles. Once again, more males, 32 (71%), than females, 13 (29%), were killed by heat.5" Impacts and Effects: • Potential deaths due to Heat Related Illness (HRI) • Increase in illness and accidents due to HRI • Potential illness and death of commercial livestock as well as domestic pets • Adverse impact on agriculture, especially dry land farms and grazing lands • Increased danger of fires • Imposition of water conservation measures • Shortages of water for firefighting • Increased prices for local produce • Economic impact due to loss of sales from people sheltering from heat instead of being out in the community • Economic impact of lost work -time due to HRI Previous Occurrences: There have been three outdoor -work heat related deaths in Washington during the years 2005 and 2006. Probability of Future Events: High — Climatic changes may be impacting the frequency and duration of extended heat events on the Olympic Peninsula. Natural Hazard Risk Rating: The average natural hazard risk rating for heat wave for all districts in Jefferson County was estimated at 13.65, which would be considered low, approaching moderate. Definition The National Weather Service (NWS) defines a heat wave as a "prolonged excessive heat/humidity episode" in which its Heat Index (HI) is expected to exceed 1050 for at least two consecutive days. Vs. 5 175 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) A definition based on Frich et al.'s Heat Wave Duration Index is that a heat wave occurs when the daily maximum temperature of more than five consecutive days exceeds the average maximum temperature by 5 OC (9 °F), the normal period being 1961-19906. Heat related illness is a well-known, recognized hazard in the outdoor work environment, as well as a threat to the day-to-day functioning of people without the means of sheltering from the heat. Heat Related Illnesses (HRI) include heat fatigue, heat rash, fainting, heart cramps, heat exhaustion, and heat stroke. Aside from these disorders, heat poses an additional threat of injuries due to accidents caused by heat related fatigue, dizziness, and disorientation. The Heat Index devised by the NWS gives an accurate measure of how hot it really feels when the relative humidity is added to the actual air temperature. Since HI values were predicated on shady, light wind conditions, exposure to full sunshine can increase values by 15 degrees. Figure HW -1, below, presents a graphic representation of the heat index'. Possible heat related disorders are: Heat Index 130° or higher: Heat stroke/sunstroke highly likely with continued exposure. Heat Index 1050 - 1300: Sunstroke, heat cramps or heat exhaustion likely, and heatstroke possible with prolonged exposure and/or physical activity. Heat Index 900 -105°: Sunstroke, heat cramps and heat exhaustion possible with prolonged exposure and/or physical activity. Heat Index 800 - 900: Fatigue possible with prolonged exposure and/or physical activity. NWS Alerts: The National Weather Service tracks heat waves by reporting stations, of which Seattle is the closest to Jefferson County. It issues heat advisories and excessive heat warnings based on the following criteria: Heat Advisory - Issued within 12 hours of the onset of the following conditions: heat index of at least 105A°F but less than I I5A°F for less than 3 hours per day, or nighttime lows above 80A°F for 2 consecutive days'. Excessive Heat Watch - Issued by the National Weather Service when heat indices in excess of 105AOF (41AOC) during the day combined with nighttime low temperatures of 80AOF (27AOC) or higher are forecast to occur for two consecutive days9. Excessive Heat Warning - Issued within 12 hours of the onset of the following criteria: heat index of at least 105A°F for more than 3 hours per day for 2 consecutive days, or heat index more than I I5A°F for any period of time10 Vs. 5 176 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Figure HW -1 — NOAA National Weather Service Heat Index Ch HOA# national weather zervloe: heat index F] Caution Extreme caution ■ Danger ■ Extreme danger Source: hftps:Hen.wikipedia.orp/wiki/Heat wave Vs. 5 177 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) HISTORY OF HEAT WAVES IN JEFFERSON COUNTY The following incidents were gleaned from local news sources and histories of Jefferson County: Mar 2001 -Dec 2001 - On March 14, 2001, Gov. Gary Locke authorized the Department of Ecology to declare a statewide drought emergency; Washington was the first Northwest state to make such a declaration, which remained in effect until December 31, 2001." 2002-2003- Two of the driest summers on record—one of five driest winters in past 100 years. Port Townsend Paper Corporation curtailed some operations, and fishing was halted on rivers on the Olympic Peninsula 2006 – Multiple heat waves of 3-4 days each in June, July, August, and culminating in September during Seattle's Bumbershoot festival. August 2008 – Three days in which heat alerts were issued by the National Weather Service. July – August 2009 – Triple digit heat from Seattle to Medford, Oregon on July 28 – 29. 12 August 18th – 20th 2016 – Multiple days of over -100 degree temperatures in the counties surrounding Jefferson County. Silverdale, Sequim, Seattle, etc. were all under "excessive heat warnings." HAZARD ASSESSMENT AND VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT During the period from 1936 through 1975, nearly 20,000 people were killed in the United States by the effects of heat and solar radiation. In the heat wave of 1980, more than 1,250 people died. From 1999 to 2010, a total of 7,415 deaths in the United States, an average of 618 per year, were associated with exposure to excessive natural heat." The highest yearly total of heat -related deaths (1,050) was in 1999 and the lowest (295) in 2004. Approximately 68% of heat -related deaths were among males. During the period from 1994 through 2007, three people died directly as a result of heat exposure in Washington. None have been recorded in Jefferson County. The geography of Jefferson County mitigates its exposure to extreme heat because it is heavily wooded, surrounded by significant waterways (the Strait of Juan de Fuca and Puget Sound), and is protected by the Olympic Mountains. Even so, the moderate conditions deter people from purchasing air conditioners, and nearly a third of the population is over 65 -years old. 14 Even though extremely high temperatures are generally of short duration in Jefferson County, the high proportion of vulnerable populations, including the elderly, small children, and chronic invalids, dictate that local governmental, emergency, and public health officials are sensitive to heat conditions and take appropriate preventive measures. Vs. 5 178 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Climate Change Future projections predict a slight increase in days over 90°F (+8 days) for the Pacific Northwest (PNW), with a limited increase in days over 95°F on the Olympic Peninsula. 15 Conclusion Heat -related deaths state-wide will increase as average yearly temperatures increase. More frequent days over 100 OF (38 °C) will cause several problems for humans, including heat cramps, heat exhaustion, and heat stroke. The amount of heat waves has increased in the state of WA over the past 20 years. The average cost for each mortality from heat related deaths is $6,250.16 Due to its favorable location and geography, Jefferson County has a low probability of experiencing the significant heat wave related issues that the rest of the State will face. Nevertheless, Washington's Department of Labor and Industries (L&I) has issued a rule, with which Jefferson County employers must comply, for employers having one or more employees performing work outdoors to: • Establish and implement written procedures to prevent the occurrence of HRI; • Provide and make accessible enough drinking water when hazards are present; • Have formalized procedures in place to respond to employees showing signs of HRI; and • Provide effective HRI prevention training to all employees. The NWS will initiate alert procedures when the HI is expected to exceed 1050- 1 10°F (depending on local climate) for at least two consecutive days. The procedures are: • Include HI values in zone and city forecasts. • Issue Special Weather Statements and/or Public Information Statements presenting a detailed discussion of o Extent of the hazard including HI values o Who is most at risk o Safety rules for reducing the risk. • Assist state/local health officials in preparing Civil Emergency Messages in severe heat waves. Meteorological information from Special Weather Statements will be included as well as more detailed medical information, advice, and names and telephone numbers of health officials. • Release to the media and over NOAAs own Weather Radio all of the above information. Jefferson County and the City of Port Townsend are in compliance with the L&I rule, and local civil, public health, and emergency management authorities are cognizant of the issues and prepared to issue warnings and to react to stress indicators within the population.

Landslide causes depend on rock type, precipitation, seismic shaking, land development and zoning practices, soil composition, moisture, and slope steepness. It can be fast moving, such as the March 2014 Oso Landslide in Snohomish county, Washington, or slow moving such as the inches per day landslide in Jackson, Wyoming in April 2014.2 Impacts and Effects: • Loss of life • Loss of homes and businesses • Loss of public buildings • Damage or complete loss of bridges • Interruption of the transportation infrastructure • Damage and interruption to utilities • Destruction by covering of clam and oyster beds • Damage to critical transportation infrastructure • Damage or loss of recreation facilities • Loss of jobs due to damaged equipment and facilities • River and streams seek new channels affecting property values and economic development opportunities • Damage to salmon habitat and salmon stream restoration projects Previous Occurrences: Winter storms in December 2007 resulted in multiple landslides, one of which moved a house off its foundation in the Brinnon area. In January of 2009, a massive landslide in adjoining Clallam County severely damaged State Route 112 for a length of 500 feet, and resulting in its closure for weeks before it was safe enough for crews to get close enough to fully assess the damage. It is nearly an annual event to have landslides take out a section of county road in the West end of Jefferson County. The Upper Hoh Road, Quinault South Shore Road, Undie Road and Oil City Road have all had pieces taken out over the past few years. During the period from 2010 thru 2015, the range of cost to repair roads damaged by landslides was from $600,000 to $1,181,000. The average for that period was $742,000.3 Probability of Future Events: High — Jefferson County experiences multiple winter storms each year that have the potential to saturate soils and precipitate landslides in the hilly topography of the county. Natural Hazard Risk Rating: The average natural hazard risk rating for landslides for all districts in Jefferson County was estimated at 20.5, which would be considered moderate. Definition Landslide is the sliding movement of masses of loosened rock and soil down a hillside or slope. Landslide causes depend on rock type, precipitation, seismic shaking, land development and zoning practices, soil composition, moisture, and slope steepness. Vs. 5 181 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) History of Landslides in Jefferson County4 Landslides are a common hazard in Jefferson County. Most recent records indicate that earth movement is associated with inclement weather, such as heavy rains, saturated ground and strong winds that loosen tree roots. Slides have been a problem over the years on the road between Port Hadlock and Port Ludlow. During the storm of January 1997, slides occurred along Discovery Bay, Cape George, Mats Mats, Paradise Bay, Shine, South Point, Coyle, Quilcene Bay, and Brinnon in the eastern part of the county. In the western part of the county, slides occurred in the Hoh, Clearwater, and Quinault River drainage areas. Evidence indicates that large land movements have occurred from past earthquakes such as the sunken forest off Point Wilson along the South Whidbey Fault. In more recent history, a landslide along Highway 20 at Eaglemount in the 1970s took out the road to Discovery Bay, covered the railroad tracks, and caused a derailment of rail cars carrying hazardous materials. Highway 101 has been washed out numerous times where the Hoh and the Bogachiel Rivers have undercut the hillside after heavy rains and snowpack melts. With the addition of water from the rain and runoff, these rivers have had a long history of eroding their banks causing the slopes to slide. The typical scenario is that heavy storms cause rivers and creeks to overflow and undercut nearby roads. The roads then give way, often destabilizing the land above the road, and causing larger landslides. In December 2007, landslides from heavy rains moved a house off its foundation in Brinnon. At the same time, over 1000 feet of the Hoh Road in west Jefferson County were damaged, resulting in its closure for six months. The Hoh Road is a significant access -way to the Hoh Rain Forest in the Olympic National Park. hi November 2009, the Dosewallips Road, which runs parallel to the Dosewallips River near Brinnon, experienced a landslide that took out a section of road and required a local disaster declaration to effect emergency repairs. In March 2013, a landslide that ran 1000 feet along Whidbey Island jutted 300 feet into the ocean and raised the beach by 30 feet.' The Whidbey News Times reported it as displacing 5.3 million cubic feet of earth or the equivalent of 40,000 dump trucks.' Although not in Jefferson County, this type of landslide in the right spot on Whidbey Island could create a tsunami that would hit the Fort Worden Beach and Port Townsend Bay. Figure LS -1, below, shows the before and after of the landslide.'

This is because of the significant Pacific Coastline, the Olympic Mountains, and the Puget lowlands that are part of our geography.

These are stealth landslides because they only make the local news, and are not significant enough for emergency declarations. Even so, Jefferson County Public Works averages $750,000 per year on projects to rebuild sections of road lost to landslides during the rainy season. Slides in Jefferson County range in size from thin masses of soil of a few yards deep to deep seated bedrock slides many yards wide. Slides are commonly categorized by the "form of initial failure", but they may travel in a variety of forms along their paths. The travel rate may change in velocity from a few inches per month to many feet per second depending on the slope, material, and water content. The recognition of ancient dormant slide masses is important because landslides can be reactivated by earthquakes or unusually wet winters. Sinkholes can develop unexpectedly and cause damage to roadways and private property.

Land is not stable indefinitely. People often believe that if a bluff has remained stable for the last 50 years, it will remain so for the next 50 years regardless of the development or maintenance around it. As trees are removed to make way for new homes, the nature of erosion and water absorption makes the slopes and bluff in these areas a dynamic and changing environment. Characteristics that may be indicative of a landslide hazard area: • Bluff retreat caused by sloughing of bluff sediments, resulting in a vertical bluff face with little vegetation • Pre-existing landslide area • Tension or ground cracks along or near the edge of the top of a bluff • Structural damage caused by settling and cracking of building foundations and separation of steps from the main structure • Toppling, bowed or jack -sawed trees • Gullying and surface erosion • Mid -slope ground water seepage from a bluff face Land stability cannot be absolutely predicted with current technology. An unequivocal predictor of landslide vulnerability is the occurrence of previous landslides in the same area. The best design and construction measures are still vulnerable to slope failure. The amount of protection, usually correlated to cost, is proportional to the level of risk reduction. Debris and vegetation management is integral to preventing landslide damages. Corrective measures help, but still leave the property vulnerable to risk. Figure LS -4 shows the known landslide risk areas within the City of Port Townsend. 12 A landslide risk assessment was completed by Risk Management by comparing the unstable -to -intermediate sloped areas with the locations of buildings throughout coastal zones of eastern Jefferson County. The analysis is summarized in Table LS -2 for Port Townsend and unincorporated portions of the county. Table LS -2 shows the building value (in dollars) for the communities located in the known and potentially unstable slope zones. This table also includes the number of buildings in the zone as well as the overall total number of buildings and building value.13 Over 1600 buildings are located in potential coastal landslide zones, which have a total estimated value of approximately $237.5 million. The majority of these buildings are located in unincorporated areas; these 1590 buildings have an estimated value of $225 million. In Port Townsend, 56 out of 2129 buildings are identified in Unstable, Unstable recent slide, Unstable old slide, and Intermediate slope zones of the coastal zone atlas slope stability map. Figure LS -6 provides a sample map of Port Townsend to illustrate how slope stability and recent landslides are illustrated in map sets available from the Washington. 14 Vs. 5 191 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Figure LS -5 City of Port Townsend Seismic, Landslide and Erosion Risk 12 Although the blue areas are seismic hazard areas likely to liquefy, they are frequently adjacent to high - bank waterfront that can easily calve off if the area becomes unstable at sea level.

Vs. 5 195 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Conclusion Jefferson County's significant coastline, Olympic Mountains, and network of roads that parallel rivers make it a high risk for landslides and high vulnerability to the cost of repairing the damage. Some landslide hazards can be mitigated by engineering, design, or construction so that risks are acceptable. When technology cannot reduce the risk to acceptable levels, building in hazardous areas should be avoided. Ordinances identifying geological hazards must be rigorously applied. The least expensive and most effective landslide loss reduction measure is by avoidance. The next most economical solution is mitigation using qualified expertise with an investigation report review process. The most costly is repair of landslide damages.

Water emergencies are discussed in the sections on man-made hazards. Impacts and Effects: • Potential deaths due to toxins or illness • Increase in illness • Potential illness and death of commercial livestock as well as domestic pets • Increased stress on local health care system and providers • Demands made on local health care system beyond capacity to respond • Disruption of local commerce • Spot shortages of food, supplies due to commerce disruption • Economic impact due to loss of sales from people sheltering in place • Economic impact of lost work -time due to illness • Pharmaceutical Interventions such as mass distribution of antibiotics, antiviral medications and/or vaccines • Non -Pharmaceutical Interventions including, but not limited to social distancing, isolation and quarantine, health education, and respiratory etiquette. Previous Occurrences: In 2008, national recalls of pet foods due to melamine contamination and peanut butter products due to salmonella affected Jefferson County to a small extent. In 2007, public health authorities tracked customers who purchased particular produce from a local farm store when it was discovered that the employee stocking the produce had Hepatitis -A. Probability of Future Events: High — There is a high probability of viral diseases being introduced into the area due to the large number of visitors to this tourism destination, or due to national events introducing things into the distribution systems. Specifically, the Wooden Boat Festival draws an international attendance of about 40,000 people to Port Townsend each year, providing an ideal venue for contact, airborne and mosquito -borne vectors. Additionally, immunization coverage for Jefferson County is below the State average in 22 out of 33 categories for children up to the age of 17 years -old. Since the previous Hazard Mitigation Plan was completed, the U.S. has experienced epidemic threats from the Ebola virus and the Zika virus. Ebola is spread by contact with infected body fluids and is almost always fatal. Zika is spread via mosquito bites and / or intimate contact with someone who is infected. It can cause birth defects if an infected woman is pregnant or becomes pregnant. Vs. 5 199 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Definitions Public Health Emergencies can be food or water contamination or medical emergencies such as diseases, epidemics, or pandemic. In the United States, a public health emergency declaration releases resources meant to handle an actual or potential public health crisis. Recent examples include incidents of flooding, severe weather, and the 2009 H1N1 influenza outbreak'. Disease — Unhealthy condition of the body or mind. A corresponding condition of plants. Epidemic — A widespread occurrence of a disease in a community at a particular time. Outbreak — Limited area in occurrence of a disease in a community at a particular time. Pandemic — Prevalent over a whole country or the world; Universal; Widespread Influenza — a viral disease in which the infected person is feverish, has muscle soreness, headaches, and a general malaise. It can impair breathing function, and be fatal to vulnerable people. Seasonal Influenza —Usually affects 5-10% of the population. Avian Influenza — Variations of the H5N1 virus that spread across bird populations and have been able to cross species into humans in some areas of Asia and Africa. None have been in the United States. Pandemic Flu — Pandemic influenza causes illness in as much as 25-30% of the population, and has had death rates as high as 2.5% in 1918. Table PH -1 summarizes the four flu pandemics that have occurred since 19182. Table PH -1 — Pandemic Flu History2 Occurrence Period Description "Illness from the 1918 flu pandemic, also known as the Spanish flu, came on quickly. Some people felt fine in the morning but died by nightfall. People who caught the Spanish Flu but did not die from it often died from complications caused by bacteria, such as pneumonia. During the 1918 pandemic: 1918 - 19193 • Approximately 20% to 40% of the worldwide population became ill • An estimated 50 million people died • Nearly 675,000 people died in the United States Unlike earlier pandemics and seasonal flu outbreaks, the 1918 pandemic flu saw high mortality rates among healthy adults. In fact, the illness and mortality rates were highest among adults 20 to 50 years old. The reasons for this remain unknown." "In February 1957, a new flu virus was identified in the Far East. Immunity to this strain was rare in people younger than 65. A pandemic was predicted. To prepare, health officials closely monitored flu outbreaks. Vaccine production began in late May 1957 and was available in limited supply by August 1957. In the summer of 1957, the virus came to the United States quietly with a series of small outbreaks. When children returned to school in the fall, they spread the disease in classrooms and brought it home to their families. Infection rates peaked among school 1957-1958 4 children, young adults, and pregnant women in October 1957. By December 1957, the worst seemed to be over. However, another wave of illness came in January and February of 1958. This is an example of the potential "second wave" of infections that can happen during a pandemic. Most influenza—and pneumonia—related deaths occurred between September 1957 and March 1958. Although the 1957 pandemic was not as devastating as the 1918 pandemic, about 69,800 people in the United States died. The elderly had the highest rates of death." "In early 1968, a new flu virus was detected in Hong Kong. The first cases in the United States were detected as early as September 1968. Illness was not widespread in the United 1968-19695 States until December 1968. Deaths from this virus peaked in December 1968 and January 1969. Those over the age of 65 were most likely to die. The number of deaths between September 1968 and March 1969 was 33,800, making it the mildest flu pandemic in the 20th century. The same virus returned in 1970 and 1972." Vs. 5 200 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Table PH -1 — Pandemic Flu History2 Occurrence Period Description "In the spring of 2009, a new flu virus spread quickly across the United States and the world. The first U.S. case of H1 N1 (swine flu) was diagnosed on April 15, 2009. By April 21, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) was working to develop a vaccine for this new virus. On April 26, the U.S. government declared H1 N1 a public health emergency. By June, 18,000 cases of H1 N1 had been reported in the United States. A total of 74 countries were affected by the pandemic. H1 N1 vaccine supply was limited in the beginning. People at the highest risk of complications got the vaccine first. 2009-201 06 By November 2009, 48 states had reported cases of H1 N1, mostly in young people. That same month, over 61 million vaccine doses were ready. Reports of flu activity began to decline in parts of the country, which gave the medical community a chance to vaccinate more people. 80 million people were vaccinated against H1 N1, which minimized the impact of the illness. The CDC estimates that 43 million to 89 million people had H1 N1 between April 2009 and April 2010. They estimate between 8,870 and 18,300 H1 N1 related deaths. On August 10, 2010 the World Health Organization (WHO) declared an end to the global H1N1 flu pandemic" Source: Flu.gov History of Public Health Emergencies in Jefferson County 1859 — The bark What Cheer cleared Portland in December 1859 infested with smallpox. Numerous crew members died in sight of Protection Island of the Jefferson County coast.

Two dogs die after drinking the water. 12 2007 — Jefferson County health authorities put out warnings to customers of a Port Townsend farm who purchased produce handled by an employee who had contracted Hepatitis -A. The potentially exposed groups Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) customers, Port Townsend Food Co-op customers and children and others who attended a field trip to the farm the first week of June.13 2015-2016 — "Anderson Lake remains closed due to toxic algae." Anderson Lake had been closed in the spring of 2015 due to high levels of a nerve toxin anatoxin that comes from blue-green algae in the lake. The toxin level was 28.94 micrograms per liter; the Washington state recreational standard is less than one microgram per liter. 14 Vs. 5 201 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Hazard Assessment and Vulnerability Assessment Hazard Profile Jefferson County faces the same public health hazards as the rest of the country in the sense that it has national food chains within the county that bring in produce and products from around the world. What follows is a representative list of types of food contamination and disease risks that occur in this area: Blue -Green Algae": Jefferson County lakes have periodically seen moderate blooms of toxic blue-green algae. During such blooms, lakes are quarantined and users are warned not to drink lake water, swim in the lake, or consume fish from the lake. The algae (genera Anabaena, Microcystis, and Aphanizomenon) produce toxins that cause liver damage or nerve impairment. Small children, people with liver problems, and pets are most at risk. E coli16: Eschericia coli O157:H57 is a bacterial infection causing bloody stool and abdominal cramps. It usually resolves without specific treatment in 5-10 days unless there are complications. Treatment with antibiotics can actually cause complications. Two to seven percent of cases develop complications. Washington has experience outbreaks in campsites, contaminated swimming areas, and occasionally in restaurants due to undercooked foods. HantaviruS17: Carried by deer mice, this virus is passed to humans when they breathe in the aerosolized virus. It can cause hemorrhagic fevers, renal syndrome, and Hantavirus (cardio-) pulmonary syndrome (11PS). HPS is potentially deadly. One to five cases are reported every year in Washington. Auto mechanics are particularly concerned because they often do repairs on vehicles in which rodents have been in the engine compartment, and left droppings and dust. Lyme Disease18: Lyme disease is a tick-borne disease in which local deer populations support populations of deer ticks. Early manifestations are fever, headache, fatigue, depression, and a "bulls -eye" skin rash. If treatment is early, the infection can be eliminated. If late or untreated, manifestations of the disease can involve the heart, joints, and nervous system, and be disabling. Approximately fifteen cases are reported in Washington each year. The state does not track Lyme Disease unless it is a human infection. Veterinarians that treat infected pets do not report the incidence, resulting in reservoirs of the disease remaining undetected until a human contracts it. Port Townsend has a deer herd of 238 individuals within the six -square mile city limits.19 Red Tide 20: Local bays, such as Discovery Bay and Oak Bay, are periodically contaminated by a "red tide" that infects shellfish and produces a marine biotoxin that can cause paralytic shellfish poisoning (PSP) in people eating the shellfish. In 2006, nearly the entire coastline of Jefferson County was closed to recreational harvesting of shellfish. Commercial shellfish are tested separately, and commercial harvesters have been affected by closures of their commercial shellfish farms from time to time, too. Toxic contaminants21: The melamine contamination of pet food was a significant event in Port Townsend, as it was around the country. Being a small city, such events make the front page of local news and become personalized because people you know are affected. A local man had batches of cat food tested after his cat died, and found out that it did not have melamine in it, but it was contaminated with acetaminophen. West Nile Virus22: West Nile Virus can cause asymptotic infections, West Nile Fever, and encephalitis. It mainly infects birds, but can infect humans, horses, dogs, cats, bats, chipmunks, skunks, squirrels, and Vs. 5 202 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) domestic rabbits. The main source of human infection is through the bite of an infected and mosquitoes. The main way it is spread is with mosquitoes. There were only 47 mosquitos tested for the virus in Jefferson County during the period from 2006 — 2016, and no positives in Jefferson County during that time. West Nile Virus has been primarily a problem in East and Central Washington counties, although it did reach both Mason County and Grays Harbor County in 2009 with one bird testing positive in each county23. Vulnerability Washington State has a significant number of statutes and administrative rules giving authorities the capability to deal with public health emergencies: RCW 70.05.060 Authority of Local Board of Health and Local Health Officer RCW 70.070 Mandates of Local Health Officer WAC 245-100 Duties and Responsibilities of Local Health Officer, Isolation and Quarantine Authority WAC 245-100-036 Communicable and certain other diseases RCW 68.50 Role, Responsibility and authority of the Medical Examiner RCW 70.58.020.030 Local Health Officer is Registrar of Vital Statistics RCW 43.20.050(4) Enforcement of Isolation and Quarantine Orders by law enforcement RCW 18.71 Physician's Trained Mobile Intensive Care Paramedic RCW 18.73 Emergency Medical Technicians, Transport Vehicles RCW 70.168 State-wide Trauma Care System The problem for Jefferson County is that a significant portion of its population can be considered vulnerable, and it has ecological factors that can exacerbate health issues. Jefferson County has one acute care hospital with 25 beds and six fire districts that provide emergency medical response. East Jefferson Fire & Rescue, which is the only fire district to provide 24x7 manned stations, provides out -of -county transport services for the hospital. All districts except for Fire District 7 are combination departments relying heavily on volunteers. Fire District 7 is an all -volunteer department that covers the West Jefferson County area. During region -wide events, such as a pandemic, local resources will be overwhelmed very quickly and result in the necessity to make life and death decisions at operational levels. Jefferson County, demographically, is turning into a retirement area. The natural beauty and unspoiled terrain encourages people to build into wooded areas with the effect that deer herds and coyotes coexist in the same localities. It is the norm for people to have deer fences around their gardens. This also means that the retiree population, the over -50, is constantly exposed to the vectors for many of the viruses and illnesses listed above. Mice infest the engine compartments of vehicles parked outdoors, deer ticks are prevalent in fallow fields, and raccoons maintain super -highways through home -owner associations. Some of Jefferson County's vulnerability issues stem from its maritime heritage and a "back -to -the -earth" movement that settled in the county during the 1970's. Port Townsend is a working Victorian seaport, and as such, receives visitors from all over the world. Each year in September, there is a world-renowned Wooden Boat Festival that attracts visitors from around the world. Over 40,000 visitors show up for that week -end, many in boats from who -knows -where, and who are capable of carrying a communicable disease into a dense group of people who are quickly going to disperse to a wide variety of geographic areas. The "back -to -the -earth" movement has resulted in a robust food co-op and farmer's markets in Jefferson County and neighboring Clallam County. These entities provide a wide -variety of locally grown organic produce to the residents of the area. What is unique is that they also provide a source for raw milk and raw Vs. 5 203 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) cheeses to be sold commercially. Sequim Washington has one of the few commercial dairies certified to produce and sell raw milk and cheese. While many people believe that there is a significant health benefit for raw milk over pasteurized milk, it still has to be recognized that any contamination of the milk will not be killed during a heat -treatment process, and that consumers are dependent on the integrity of the dairy farmer to maintain a healthy product. Jefferson County also has vaccination rates below the State's average in 22 out of 33 categories among children, ages 19 -months to 17 -years old. Table PH -2, below, consolidates the immunization coverage tables from the Washington State Department of Health so that Jefferson County immunization rates are compared directly to the Washington State average immunization rates for children up to 17 -years old.za The difference in percent immunization is in GREEN when Jefferson County rates are above the state average and are RED when the rates are below the state average. To reiterate, Jefferson County immunization rates are below the state average in 22 of 33 categories for 2015. Figure PH -1, following, shows the average immunization rates for both juveniles and adults in the State, along with the immunization goals desired. 5 It, too, shows significant gaps between goals and experience within the State, and implies the same for Jefferson County.

The natural reservoir of Ebola virus is bats, and it is transmitted between humans and from animals to humans through contact with body fluids .2' No cases have ever been identified in Jefferson County, but the U.S. had cases of infected doctors and / or travelers returning to the U.S. after having acquired it in infected areas of Africa. Zika Virus27: "The infection, known as Zika fever or Zika virus disease, often causes no or only mild symptoms, similar to a very mild form of dengue fever.28 While there is no specific treatment, paracetamol (acetaminophen) and rest may help with the symptoms.29 As of 2016, the illness cannot be prevented by medications or vaccines.30 Zika can spread from a pregnant woman to her fetus. This can result in microcephaly, severe brain malformations, and other birth defects 31" Climate Change Table PH -3, Summary of Projected Climate Change and Related Human Health Impacts, is taken in its entirety from "Section 12 — How Will Climate Change Affect Human Health in Washington?32" It provides a comprehensive summarization of how "human health in Washington is likely to be affected by projected increases in extreme heat events, flooding, sea level rise, drought, and forest fires; increased allergen production and summer air pollution; and changes in the types, distribution, and transmission of infectious diseases (e.g., West Nile Virus) and fungal diseases.""

Conclusion Jefferson County has several unique factors that increase its vulnerability to contaminated foods and the spread of infection, but public health officials recognize this and work hard to contain local outbreaks of disease or contaminated products. Nevertheless, the potential exists that in a region -wide event or a pandemic event, local resources will be quickly overwhelmed necessitating help from outside the region.

Vs. 5 217 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Definition Tornadoes are the most violent weather phenomena known. They are characterized by funnel clouds of varying sizes that generate winds as fast as 500 miles per hour. They can affect an area of V4 to 3/4 of a mile and seldom more than 16 miles long. Tornadoes normally descend from the large cumulonimbus clouds that characterize severe thunderstorms. They form when a strong crosswind (sheer) intersects with strong warm updrafts in these clouds causing a slowly spinning vortex to form within a cloud. Eventually, this vortex may develop intensity and then descend to form a funnel cloud. When this funnel cloud touches the ground or gets close enough to the ground to affect the surface it becomes a tornado. Tornadoes can come from lines of cumulonimbus clouds or from a single storm cloud. Up until 2007, tornadoes were measured using the Fujita-Pearson Scale ranging from FO to F5 (Figure TN -1).4 Table TN -2 shows the Fujita-Pearson Scale and it criteria. Since 2007, the "Enhanced" Fujita Scale (EF) has been used to estimate the scale of a tornado based on 28 criteria. Table TN -2 shows the equivalence of the Fajita and the Enhanced Fajita scale. Table TN -3 presents the 28 criteria with which to evaluate a tornado's destructive force. Figure TN -1 - THE FUJITA-PEARSON SCALE The National Weather Service scales tornadoes by intensity on a scale of zero to five on the Fujita- Pearson scale which include: F-0. Light damage. Wind up to 72 mph. Some damage to chimneys; breaks branches off trees; pushes over shallow -rooted trees; damages sign boards. F-1. Moderate damage. Wind 73 to 112 mph. The lower limit is the beginning of hurricane wind speed; peels surface off roofs; mobile homes pushed off foundations or overturned; moving autos pushed off the roads; attached garages may be destroyed. F-2. Considerable damage. Wind 113 to 157 mph. Roof torn off frame houses; mobile homes demolished; boxcars overturned; large trees snapped or uprooted; light -object missiles generated; cars lifted off ground. F-3. Severe damage. Wind 158 to 206 mph. Roof and some walls torn off well -constructed houses; trains overturned; most trees in forest uprooted. F-4. Devastating damage. Wind 207 to 260 mph. Well -constructed houses leveled; structures with weak foundations blown off some distance; cars thrown and large missiles generated. F-5. Incredible damage. Wind above 261 mph. Strong frame houses lifted off foundations and carried considerable distances to disintegrate; automobile sized missiles fly through the air in excess of 100 meters; trees debarked; steel -reinforced concrete structures badly damaged. F-6 to F12. Toast City. Exponentially increasing force that was originally proposed as from 319 mph to Mach 1, the speed of sound. The maximum wind speeds of tornadoes are not expected to reach F6, therefore the public is generally unaware of this part of the scale. We would expect "Sharknado" before having an F6 or greater storm. The "Enhanced" Fujita Scale simply makes the top end of the F-5 scale open-ended. Vs. 5 218 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) History of Tornadoes in Jefferson County Jefferson County does not have a record of significant tornado activity. Generally, the Northwest lacks the big thunderstorms that spawn tornadoes. From the period 1880 through 2012, there have been no "officially" recorded tornadoes in Jefferson County.' Yet, we have documentation of tornadoes occurring from 1969 thru 2015, albeit infrequently. We have no explanation for the divergence in agreement of sources. Washington state usually experiences one to two tornadoes each year. In 2004, however, there were nine, while in 2007 none were reported. Wind patterns in Jefferson County are broken up by the Olympics, thus mitigating tornado spawning conditions.6 Table TN -2. The Fujita Scale vs the Enhanced Fujita Scale.

Tornadoes require a confluence of warm surface temperatures and warm fronts coming from the south with cold fronts coming from the north. Northwest climates do not normally generate the temperature variations conducive to tornado formation. Washington is ranked 43 in the US for total number of tornadoes. Nonetheless, the tornado threat should be taken very seriously. The conditions conducive to tornado formation can develop in Northwest Washington, although it is not common for funnel clouds to be reported in this region. During severe thunderstorms, it is possible for tornadoes to occur.7 Tornadoes in Washington tend to be light or moderate, with winds ranging from 40 to 112 mph. There are a notable minority of tornadoes that cause significant to severe damage with winds going as high as 200 mph. The peak season for tornadoes is April through July. However, in Washington tornadoes may occur in the late summer months and, in a few rare cases, may occur in the winter months. While tornadoes are sometimes formed in association with large Pacific storms, most of them are caused by intense local thunderstorms. Tornadoes almost exclusively occur in the late afternoon and early evening. Normally, Pacific Northwest tornadoes are moderate but it is possible for serious tornadoes to develop, causing death and serious injury. Typically, tornadoes may cause severe damage to everything in their path. Walls collapse, roofs are ripped off, trees and power lines are destroyed. The challenge is that tornadoes, especially in the Northwest, are very difficult to predict and their onset is sudden. Unlike the tornado -prone areas in the plains states, there is little awareness of the tornado threat and the forecasting and warning systems are less well developed. It is extremely rare for a tornado watch or warning to be issued anywhere in the Northwest. As such, there is little public awareness of the warning systems and self-protection measures common to the tornado prone states. Climate Change At this point in time, there is too much variability in wind speeds and storm events and too short of wind time series to be able to make projections of climate changes effect on the intensity or patterns of winds in the region.'

Vs. 5 222 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Since we now have a 24-7 news cycle and since threatening weather is good for ratings, news media pump up the coverage of storms and tornados, often giving the impression that events are going to be worse than they turn out to be. Just prior to October 15, 2016, the media hyped a "mega -storm" that was to have 150 mph winds to hit the Seattle area on October 15, 2016". There is anecdotal evidence that some local stations kept on promoting how bad the storm was going to be — even after they had word from the NWS that the threat was mitigating.

While violent tornadoes are not a characteristic of the Northwest Washington climate, the weather systems that may generate tornadoes appear regularly. Emergency response agencies and emergency management officials should be prepared for the rapid notification of the public and for the efficient management of a mass casualty incident, and the prioritization of debris clearance.

Impacts and Effects: • Loss of life • Loss of property • Damage to critical transportation infrastructure • Damage or loss of recreation facilities • Disruption of utilities • Loss of jobs due to damaged equipment and facilities Previous Occurrences: Geologic evidence shows that the Jefferson County area around Discovery Bay and the City of Port Townsend have experienced at least 7 major inundations in the last 3500 ye arse. Probability of Future Events: High — Minor tsunamis have been documented every few years. There are several know faults and subduction zones capable of generating major tsunamis as part of an underwater subsidence. Natural Hazard Risk Rating: The average natural hazard risk rating for tsunamis for all districts in Jefferson County was estimated at 10.45, which would be considered low. Districts with water boundaries, however, consistently rate the risk at 40, which, while moderate, is among the highest ratings given for anything in Jefferson County. Figure TS -1 Olympic Peninsula Tsunami Inundation Zones at 100' and 600" Vs. 5 227 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Definition: Tsunamis are wave trains, or series of waves, generated in a body of water by an impulsive disturbance including earthquakes, subaqueous or terrestrial landslides impacting water bodies, or volcanoes. Tsunami waves, often incorrectly described as tidal waves, are extremely destructive to life and property. Imperceptible on the open ocean, they can travel at velocities of up to 1000 km/h. Tsunami waves are usually 100 or more miles from crest to crest and can reach heights of up to 30 meters. They can traverse the entire 12,000 to 14,000 miles of the Pacific Ocean in 20 to 25 hours, striking with virtual undiminished force on coastal areas4. A seiche is the formation of standing waves in water body, due to wave formation and subsequent reflections from the ends. A seiche may be incited by earthquake motions, impulsive winds over the surface, or wave motions entering the basins. A tsunami generated along the South Whidbey Island earthquake fault could send a wave directly into Port Townsend Bay, where it would wrap around the bay and create a seiche. History of Tsunamis in Jefferson County The Washington coast, including the coastal areas of Jefferson County, experienced a large tsunami following the 1964 Alaskan earthquake; however, no deaths were reported in this state. As recently as March 2011, a tsunami warning was issued for the Washington coast due to the Tohoku earthquake in Japan, which created a tsunami that did reach our coast. Research indicates that an earthquake on the west coast of America at 21:00 on January 26, 1700 caused a tsunami in Japan that killed thousands of people. Local evidence now indicates that the same tsunami damaged the west coast of Jefferson County and the lowlands of Grays Harbor and Pacific counties. This was caused by an estimated 9.0+ undersea earthquake along the Cascadia Subduction Zone, which can happen again. The event, called a megathrust earthquake, created a large tsunami that crossed the Pacific Ocean and inundated Japanese villages without the shaking warning they were used to having. The Japanese documented the event, thus allowing us to get the exact time of arrival of the wave in Japan and to back calculate when the earthquake occurred on Washington coast6. At the time of the "1700 Tsunami", there were only native and early explorer civilizations in the areas inundated in Washington. Today, there are billions of dollars of property and millions of people that could be directly affected. Seafloor core evidence indicates that there have been forty-one subduction zone earthquakes on the Cascadia subduction zone in the past 10,000 years, suggesting a general average earthquake recurrence interval of only 243 years! Of these 41, nineteen have produced a "full margin rupture," wherein the entire fault opens up.' There is also evidence of accompanying tsunamis with every earthquake. One strong line of evidence for these earthquakes is convergent timings for fossil damage from tsunamis in the Pacific Northwest and historical Japanese records of tsunamis.9 Table TS -1 provides the approximate dates of the tsunami events occurring from Cascadia ruptures in the last 3500 years10. The interval ranges were from about 200 to 900 years with an average of about 500 years.

An earthquake of 7.5 near Adak, Alaska generated a seismic wave of 2.5 feet. The state EOC returned to normal operations on the same date after the Tsunami Warning Center determined there was no threat to Washington State. Although not a common occurrence, the history indicates that the potential for tsunamis exists for coastal areas and areas along the Strait of Juan de Fuca. The Jefferson County Emergency Operations Center (EOC) has been activated multiple times to monitor for distant tsunamis from under sea earthquakes near Japan and along the South American coast. The Japanese earthquake at Honshu on March 11, 2011, created a massive tsunami in Japan, but also generated a distant tsunami that hit the Washington coast, including Port Townsend and Fort Worden State Park beaches. As the EOC tracked the tsunami across the Pacific, the City Manager gave orders to evacuate the vulnerable population of the Admiralty Apartments, a low-income residence on the Port Townsend waterfront. The tsunami wave did hit the Washington coast and Port Townsend, but, fortunately, was less than a meter high at its highest spot. Hazard Identification and Vulnerability Assessment The Pacific coastal areas and inland waters on the Strait of Juan de Fuca are the most vulnerable to tsunamis generated at a distance or by a local subduction zone earthquake. Distant tsunamis are those that originate so far away that residents of Jefferson County cannot feel the shaking of the earthquake that creates the wave. In most cases, nearby tsunamis will give warning by the shaking of the earthquake creating the wave; in some cases, though, the wave can be generated by a landslide and may not be heard or felt. Damaging tsunamis striking the Pacific Northwest coast over the past century were generated by distant earthquakes located far across the Pacific basin. These tsunamis are distinguished from earthquakes near the coast, termed local tsunamis. Figure TS -2 shows how long it takes a tsunami to reach the Washington coast from across the ocean13 Typically, the Port Townsend coastline and Port Townsend Bay have about 90 minutes before a wave hits once it enters the Strait of Juan de Fuca. A tsunami wave generated by the rupture of the Cascadia fault, off the coast of Washington, will take approximately two hours to reach the Port Townsend area — depending on how and where the rupture occurred. A distant tsunami, such as was generated by the Honshu earthquake, can take seven or eight hours or more to reach Washington's coast. Vs. 5 229 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Source: Jefferson County Department of Emergency Management The Jefferson County Risk Report estimates that an earthquake in the Puget Sound along the Seattle fault could generate a tsunami that would reach Port Townsend in twenty (20) minutes.14 On the other hand, a rupture of the South Whidbey Island Fault or a landslide into the sea from Whidbey Island could cause a significant tsunami that would reach Port Townsend or the Fort Worden beaches in minutes. People on the beaches would still be picking themselves up off the ground when the wave hit. The South Whidbey Island fault is mid -way between Port Townsend and Whidbey Island, a distance of about one and a half miles.

Except for the 1992 Cape Mendocino U N17ED STATES a, earthquake at the southernmost part of the subduction zone, there Mo ns have been no major earthquakes on the megathrust in historic time. San LOS ; ANVQ 14s Source: washington.edu Some geologists offer that the Cascadia subduction zone is poised between major earthquakes. Therefore, the possibility exists that local tsunamis may someday accompany a major earthquake along the Cascadia megathrust. Pacific coastal areas and inland waters on the Strait of Juan de Fuca are the most vulnerable to tsunamis generated at a distance or by a local subduction zone earthquake. As a tsunami leaves the deep water of the open ocean and travels into the shallower water near the coast, it transforms. A tsunami travels at a speed that is related to the water depth - hence, as the water depth decreases, the tsunami slows. The tsunami's energy flux, which is dependent on both its wave speed and wave height, remains nearly constant. Consequently, as the tsunami's speed diminishes as it travels into shallower water, its height grows. Because of this shoaling effect, a tsunami, imperceptible at sea, may grow Vs. 5 232 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) to be several meters or more in height near the coast. When it finally reaches the coast, a tsunami may appear as a rapidly rising or falling tide or a series of breaking waves. A tsunami generated by a Cascadian Subduction Zone earthquake directly off the coast of Washington State, could arrive in less than a half hour. Tsunami waves from a Cascadia Subduction Zone earthquake located off the shore of Northern California or Northern British Columbia may reach the coast of Washington State in an hour or less. Puget Sound is vulnerable to tsunamis generated by local crustal earthquakes or by submarine landslides triggered by earthquakes. Wave oscillations in enclosed or semi -enclosed bodies of water are called seiches. Seiches are caused by earthquake induced land surface waves that generate oscillations in bodies of water, resulting in fluctuations of the water levels causing sloshing from one end to the other. In 1891, an earthquake centered near Port Angeles caused eight -foot waves in Lake Washington. The death and damage that can be inflicted by a tsunami is notable. The wave action is destructive in itself, however floating debris left after the wave can continue batter coastline structures and development. Boats moored in harbors and marinas often are swamped and sunk, or are destroyed and stranded on the shore. Breakwaters and piers collapse. Storage tanks situated near the waterfront are vulnerable. Port facilities, fishing fleets, and public utilities are frequently the backbone of the economy of the affected areas, and these are the very resources that generally receive the most severe damage. Until debris can be cleared, wharves and piers rebuilt, utilities restored, and the fishing fleets reconstituted, communities may find themselves without fuel, food and employment. Wherever water transport is a vital means of supply and economic sustainment, disruption of coastal and inland seaports can have far reaching economic effects. Tsunami effects on fishing, mollusks, shore plants and marine and land organisms can be devastating. In addition to the enormous direct destruction caused by the waves themselves, salt water can invade coastal lakes and destroy, at least temporarily the fresh water habitat. Jefferson County's ocean coastal areas have many miles of cliffs and high banks that slow or retard wave inundation. Lower elevation lands of river and stream outlets, however, do have small communities near their banks. Pott Townsend: The National Tsunami Hazard Mitigation Program's Center for Tsunami Inundation Mapping Efforts has developed tsunami models to help jurisdictions along the Southern Washington Coast, and Port Angeles and Port Townsend prepare evacuation plans for a future tsunami. The models use a moment magnitude 9.1 earthquake on the Cascadia Subduction Zone off the Washington coast as the generator of the tsunami. Figure TS -5, below, shows the inundation zone and evacuation routes for the Port Townsend area. City Hall and half of the grocery and hardware stores, and two power substations are within the Port Townsend zone18. The police station used to be, but was moved out of the tsunami zone in 2009 with the aid of a FEMA Hazard Mitigation grant. Projects covering these areas have identified at -risk communities (all census designated and incorporated places within one kilometer of the coast) and developed arrival times and wave elevations for them. For communities on the outer coast, the first wave crest is predicted to arrive between 30 and 60 minutes after the earthquake; in Willapa Bay and Grays Harbor, the first crest is not expected to arrive for more than an hour. Significant flooding can occur before the first wave crest because a Cascadia Subduction Zone earthquake is expected to lower the ground surface along the coast. Flooding of areas less than six feet above tide stage Vs. 5 233 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) is expected immediately. Maximum flooding depth and extent will depend on tide height at the time of tsunami arrival.

West Jefferson County: Jefferson County's west end consists of about 27 miles of open ocean frontage, small unincorporated towns, and two Indian tribes: the Quileute and the Hoh. Modeling of the Cascadia fault suggests that tsunami waves in excess of thirty feet high could inundate the shoreline. The Hoh Tribe of Indians have the most vulnerable community with approximately 110 individuals, many of which are still in the inundation zone at the mouth of the Hoh River. They have been working diligently to acquire elevated land around the perimeter of the reservation in order to move their community center and emergency facilities to high ground to give tribe members a place to go during a tsunami emergency.

Table TS -2 provides the estimate of buildings and their value in the tsunami zone.21 While a good way to compare against other areas, such as Port Angeles to understand relative vulnerability, it grossly understates the cost of the tsunami. The simulation scenario values buildings because it can, but it does not factor in that a significant portion of the county's economic engine is within the tsunami zone, along with 1/3 of Port Townsend's grocery stores, three-quarters of its financial institutions, a power sub -station, and city hall. The time to recover and the cost of recovery will dwarf the value of the buildings damaged.

Tsunamis tend to impact the same localities over and over again. Therefore, if tsunamis have damaged an area before, they are likely to do so again. One choice is to avoid living in or using areas with significant tsunami hazard. Alternatively, communities can review land use in these areas so that no critical facilities, such as hospitals and police stations, or high occupancy buildings, such as auditoriums or schools, or petroleum -storage tanks are located where there is tsunami hazard. Vs. 5 241 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) If warning is received early enough (two to five hours) which is possible rt for tsunamis generated at a distance, preventative action can be taken. I People can be evacuated; ships can clear harbors or seek a safe r anchorage; equipment and vehicles can be moved; and buildings can be boarded up and sandbagged. The time from initiation of an earthquake aimto a tsunami for local earthquakes, however may be only a few minutes to at most a little more than an hour. Residents in areas susceptible to tsunamis should be made aware of the need to seek high ground if they feel strong shaking. Coastal communities should identify evacuation routes even if they do not have good information about potential inundation areas. Standard signs have been adopted for use throughout tsunami prone areas on the west coast. These signs have been posted along highways, beach areas, and campgrounds. Brochures with information on tsunamis have also been provided to these areas. The U.S. West Coast/Alaska Tsunami Warning Center (WC/ATWC) was established in Palmer, Alaska in 1967 as a direct result of the great Alaskan earthquake that occurred in Prince William Sound on March 27, 1964. 0 Since 1986, it has taken the Center an average of 10 minutes to get a warning out to potentially affected areas. Messages are composed automatically based on earthquake location and are sent to National Weather Service (NWS) offices. The NWS offices forward the message to NOAA Weather Radio, the Emergency Alert System, the Emergency Managers Weather Information Network, and other communication systems available to the public and media. Coastal areas ranging from Cape Flattery to Long Beach can now receive weather and emergency alert warning information for a radio transmitter site on Mt. Octopus in West Jefferson County. This weather radio site is predicted to help save lives and alert property owners of wind, wave and storm conditions. The Mt. Octopus radio transmitter will also provide residents and visitors critical warnings in case of tsunamis generated by distant earthquakes in the Pacific area. Photo by Bob Hamlin A transmitter, called AHAB (All Hazard Alert Broadcast), installed at the Port Townsend Boat Haven will also provide information on tsunamis, local weather warnings, and other appropriate emergency warning information for the Port Townsend area.

The hazard can come in the direct form of molten lava, poisonous and corrosive gases, or rock fragments, ash fall, and lightning storms that affects people and equipment. Such an opening forms when melted rock from deep within the Earth (magma) blasts through the surface. Washington State has five active volcanoes — Mount Baker, Glacier Peak, Mount Rainier, Mount St. Helens, and Mount Adams.' Impacts and Effects: • Loss of life • Loss of property • Resultant earthquakes • Potential clouds of carbon dioxide, toxic gases, and regional acid rains • Flooding, landslides, avalanches, ash falls • Damage to mechanical and electronic equipment from fine ash falls • Damage to critical transportation infrastructure • Destruction of dams • Disruption of hydroelectric power sources • Heavy demands on power supplies as heavy ash falls block out light • Destruction of stream beds and salmon habitat • Damage or loss of recreation facilities • Loss of jobs due to damaged equipment Previous Occurrences: Mount St. Helens has been the only one active in the past 30 years with a massive eruption in 1980, followed by dome building eruptions in the 1980-1986 and 2004-2008 4 It is the last significant volcanic eruption to affect Jefferson County. Probability of Future Events: Low — Washington's volcanoes will erupt again, as shown by recent activity at Mount St. Helens. There is a I in 500 probability that portions of 2 counties will receive 10 centimeters (4 inches) or more of volcanic ash from any Cascades volcano in any given year, and a I in 1,000 probability that parts or all of 3 more counties will receive that quantity of ashy. Due to prevailing westerly winds, the probability of an annual ash -fall from any major Cascade volcano of one centimeter ranges from I in 1000 to 1 in 5000.6 Jefferson County also has risk from ash fall from Alaskan volcanoes because the prevailing westerly winds will carry significant ash towards the county. This is affected greatly by the season and how the Jet Stream is shifted at the time. Vs. 5 247 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Definition A volcano is an opening in Earth's surface through which lava (molten rock), hot gases, and rock fragments erupt from the earth's interior. Such an opening forms when melted rock from deep within Earth (magma) blasts through the surface. Volcanoes take many forms according to the chemical composition of their magmas and the conditions under which the magmas are erupted. Most volcanoes are mountains, particularly cone-shaped ones, which were built up around the opening by lava and other materials thrown out during eruptions. In some eruptions, huge fiery clouds rise over the mountain, and glowing rivers of lava flow down its sides. In other eruptions, red-hot ash and cinders shoot out the mountaintop, and large chunks of hot rock are blasted high into the air. A few eruptions are so violent they blow the mountain apart. History of Volcanoes as they Affect Jefferson County There are no volcanoes in Jefferson County; however, the proximity to potentially active volcanoes in the Cascade Mountains to the east could impact the county. When Mt. St. Helens erupted on May 18, 1980, heavy ash from a west wind blanketed much of Eastern Washington. Subsequent eruptions on May 25 and June 12 similarly affected Western Washington, although to a lesser degree. Eruptions of any of the active volcanoes in Western Washington and Oregon could significantly affect travel, tourism and air quality conditions in Jefferson County. During the 1980 eruption, for example, aircraft were diverted from commercial routes downstream because the pumice in the air could damage engines and possible cause them to quit.'

Even Glacier Peak, long thought to have been without an eruption for over 10,000 years is now known to have erupted as recently as a thousand years and possibly as late as the 17' century. Mount Adams is also capable of renewed activity. Seven separate hazards can be associated with volcanoes. They include earthquakes, lava flows, mud flows, ash flows, rock flows, ejecta, and ash falls. Volcanic hazards can occur with or without an actual eruption. Earthquakes associated with volcanic activity can cause landslides and avalanches in the areas surrounding the actual volcanic sight. With proper wind conditions, ash deposits could be deposited from all of Washington's volcanoes and from several of those in Oregon. Depending on the size of the eruption and the time of year, the ash could: clog drainage channels; cause electrical short circuits; drift onto roadways; collapse roofs of houses and other buildings, cause skin and eye irritation to the general population and or respiratory distress to the aged, young and infirm; clog engines and air filters, and create acid rain. In addition, it can disrupt radio, television and telephone transmissions. Since the ash remains on the surface, it can be resuspended in the atmosphere when disrupted by wind or human activities. Heavy ash - fall blots out light. Sudden heavy demand for electric light and air conditioning may cause a drain on power supplies, leading to a partial or full power failure. Under normal wind conditions, the ash would move into eastern Washington. In a south or southeasterly wind, Jefferson County could be affected.

Tephra is the heated rocks that are shot out of the volcano. Large heavy ones fall close to the volcano; small light ones become the volcanic ash that can float in the air for hundreds, even thousands of miles. Figure VO -3 Annual Probability of 1 cm or more of Tephra Accumulation from any major Cascade Volcano Vs. 5 251 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) In studying Mount Rainier's active eruptive history, volcanologists and geologists know that it will erupt again. Since the exact type and scale of the eruption(s) cannot be predicted, an awareness of the hazards of ash deposits must be communicated to Jefferson County residents. The hazard is considered "low"; however, the potential for eruptions and the potential results remain. United States Geologic Survey (USGS) volcanologists and Department of Natural Resources (DNR) geologists identify Mount Rainier as being an active eruptive volcano. From the magnitude of past events it is surmised that the consequences of a lahar (mudflow) or debris flow down the populated river valleys near Mount Rainier will be catastrophic and will potentially result in a tremendous loss of life and property. New studies show that the process of geothermal hydroalteration is unevenly weakening the inside of Mount Rainier. This is a process whereby the slopes of the mountain are being internally eaten away by hot, acidic water, which makes the slopes more susceptible for failure, increasing both the possibility and risk of lahars. Washington State areas including King, Pierce, and Thurston County have much higher risk of loss of life and property than Jefferson County. Jefferson County's location with respect to the active volcanoes would limit the number of hazards, however impacts would be felt. The economic, cultural and transportation impacts that would be experienced in Jefferson County, however, would be severe if such an eruption were to occur on Mount Rainier. Most certainly, Interstate 5 and Interstate 90 would be closed, thus disrupting key routes for trade and travel. Ash and some debris could fall on Jefferson County depending on prevailing winds at the time. Jefferson County could serve as a haven for displaced residents for not only days, but perhaps for decades to come, thus impacting the infrastructure and resources of the County. Puget Sound fishing resources and economic foundations of the timber and recreation industries could be impacted for decades. The tourism industry and economic benefits derived could also be affected for Jefferson County. Climate Change It is easy to conclude that volcanoes can disrupt the earth's climate for reasonably long periods — in human terms. The "Little Ice Age" is said to have been a function of increased volcanism during the periods from 1257-1300 AD and 1400-1455 AD that was sustained for many centuries by sea ice/ocean feedback.13 Now there are theories that volcanism can be stimulated by global warming. The theories, finding new support from research in Iceland, state that superheated rock kept under pressure by the weight of glaciers can become magma when glaciers melt due to global warming and relieve some of the pressure on the rocks. The evidence cited is that glacier melting in Iceland will cause the island nation to rise 1.57 inches per year in the next decade.14 "As the glaciers melt, the pressure on the underlying rocks decreases," Compton said in an e-mail to TIME. "Rocks at very high temperatures may stay in their solid phase if the pressure is high enough. As you reduce the pressure, you effectively lower the melting temperature." The result is a softer, more molten subsurface, which increases the amount of eruptive material lying around and makes it easier for more deeply buried magma chambers to escape their confinement and blow the whole mess through the surface. 15 Iceland is estimated to be losing I I billion tons of ice weight per year. At the current pace, the researchers predict, the uplift rate in parts of Iceland will rise to 1.57 in. (40 mm) per year by the middle of the next decade, liberating more calderas and leading to one Eyjafjallajokull-scale blow Vs. 5 252 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) every seven years In 2010 the volcanic caldera under the Eyjafjallaj6kull ice cap in southern Iceland erupted for three weeks from late March to mid-April and spreading ash across vast swaths of Europe. The continent was socked in for a week, shutting down most commercial flights.16 The idea that reduced ice cover in a volcanic area can actually lead to an increase in volcanism is in some dispute. The Plan cites a recent article that attributes the cause to reduced ice cover lowering the overburden pressure on magma chambers, softening the magma, leading to more eruptive behavior. However, it is not clear that softer magma under reduced pressure would result in more eruptions. Other scientists have added the idea that reduced pressure would also lead to increased gas production from the liquid magma, thus causing an increase in local chamber pressures." However, a mechanism that is well established is that the ejecta from an eruption lead to a temporary globally averaged cooling lasting typically 3 years, depending on the nature of the particles and the altitude to which the eruption projects them. Larger particles precipitate out quickly (days to weeks), but smaller particles diminish incoming solar radiation and ejected sulfur forms sulfur dioxide which, if it reaches the stratosphere creates sulfuric acid aerosols that also diminish solar radiation. These cooling effects overwhelm the climate -warming effects associated with the volcanic ejection of carbon dioxide, methane and other greenhouse -enhancing gases.18 Research indicates that the Indonesian volcano, Somalas, erupted with a magnitude 7 (out of 8) on the Volcanic Explosivity Index (VEI) in 1258 C.E., thus causing the medieval "year without summer".19 This was on the order of magnitude of the Tambora eruption in 1815, and larger than the Krakatoa eruption. Figure VO -4 illustrates the correlation between the VEI and the volume of ejecta .20 Table VO-2 displays the classification schema for the VEI?' The net impact of climate change on volcanoes remains in considerable doubt. Increased rates of ice loss driven by climate change are probably not sufficient to cause a marked change in what is already a very sporadic and unpredictable rate of local and regional volcanic activity. However, increases in more active volcanic areas, particularly Iceland, may increase the likelihood for Jefferson County to be affected by a more globally -felt cooling event. This could have local consequences, both positive and negative, even though the cooling would only last a few years. It is important to note that this temporary cooling would be followed by a more rapid rate of globally averaged warming as the climate returns to the warming trends established prior to any single volcanic eruption.22 Conclusion Emergency Plans must advise people of potential hazards. Being aware of the potential hazards and responding appropriately will help mitigate the loss of life and could potentially help reduce losses of property in the eventuality of a volcanic eruption. Emergency plans must be tested and practiced ahead of time and used without hesitation when a volcano threatens to erupt. Scientists and public officials must announce warnings early and clearly. The Cascades Volcano Observatory in Vancouver, Washington, monitors and assesses hazards from the volcanoes of the Cascade Range of Washington, Oregon, and California. Seismic monitoring is shared with the USGS center in Menlo Park, California, (for northern California) and the Geophysics Program of the University of Washington in Seattle (for Washington and Oregon). CVO also is home to the Volcano Disaster Assistance Program. Vs. 5 253 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) The Volcano Disaster Assistance Program, home-based in Vancouver, Washington, was formed in the mid-1980s to respond to volcanoes in all parts of the world. An experienced team of USGS and other scientists can rapidly respond to developing volcanic crises with a state-of-the-art portable cache of monitoring equipment. VDAP has proven to be effective in saving lives and property by assistance provided to local scientists for determining the nature and possible consequences of volcanic unrest and communicating eruption forecasts and hazard -mitigation information to local authorities.

Forest and wildland fires occur primarily in undeveloped areas, although there are significant pockets of residences within Jefferson County woodlands2. Impacts and Effects: • Loss of civilian lives and firefighters • Loss of homes and businesses • Loss of crops and livestock • Destruction of wildlife habitat and watersheds • Damage to salmon habitat • Damage or total loss of scenic vistas and recreation facilities • Destruction of timber resources • Loss of jobs due to destroyed and damaged equipment and facilities • Decreased tourism • High costs to fight fires • Fire and emergency response teams unable to meet "routine„ obligations and fight wildland fires simultaneously • Vulnerability to flooding increases Previous Occurrences: According to the National Fire Information Reporting System (NFIRS), Jefferson County averages 5 - 10 acres of wildland fires every year. The last major wildfire, the Chimney Peak fire, occurred in 1981 Probability of Future Events: High - An annually recurring dry season combined with encroaching residential development is resulting in a regular brush fire season. So far, the rapid response of rural fire departments has kept the impact of these fires to a minimum. Definition Forest and wildland fires are the uncontrolled destruction of forested and wild lands by fire caused by natural or human -made events. Forest and wildland fires occur primarily in undeveloped areas. Interface fires are a recent phenomenon that occurs in developed forest and wildlands, only partially cleared, and occupied by structural development. In interface fires people, homes and small businesses intermingle with the wildland and forest areas. When weather conditions are dry and fuels are abundant, rapidly spreading fires can cause significant loss of life and property. Vs. 5 259 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) History of Fires as it Affects Jefferson County Jefferson County has had an active history of wildland fires during the past millennium. The fact that the oldest of old-growth timber stands are rare attests to the fact that most of the area has burned and re - burned many times during the past 1000 years. Stands of trees older than 500 years do not occur except in small patches or scattered trees found in moist draws and stream bottoms at the headwaters of a few creeks and rivers. It is difficult to trace the fire history of this area back more than 350 years. However, old-growth trees and fire scars suggest fires about 450, 480, 540 and 670 years ago. Historically, wildland fires were not considered a hazard. Fire is a normal part of most forest and range ecosystems. Fires historically burned on a fairly regular cycle. The burning cycle in western Washington appears to be about every 100 — 150 years. A preponderance of evidence, however, has been obliterated by logging, major windstorms that toppled older trees, and more recent fires in the areas. Recorded history of fires in the area, however, indicates Jefferson County has had an active history of fires. As communities expand farther and farther into forested lands, and the desire to maintain the wilderness ambiance, interface fires are becoming a significant hazard, having the potential for loss of life and destruction of property. "The occurrence of wildfires on the Olympic peninsula is closely tied to climate. It appears that the pattern of fires has been as variable as the pattern of past climates. Some periods have had stand destroying fires, others have had almost none. Still other periods may have had a pattern of high fire frequency but low fire intensity. Because of this variability and the many factors involved, one aspect of the fire history of the Olympics seems certain: one cannot characterize the fire patterns of one period by knowing what it is in another "' Table WF -1, below, details some of the history and more interesting wildland fires that have affected Jefferson County.

Vs. 5 261 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Hazard Identification and Vulnerability Assessment The Washington Department of Natural Resources and its federal and local partners determined that 181 communities are at high risk for wilderness fires after evaluating them for fire behavior potential, fire protection capability, and risk to social, cultural and community resources. Risk factors included area fire history, type and density of vegetative fuels, extreme weather conditions, topography, number and density of structures and their distance from fuels, location of municipal watershed, and likely loss of housing or business. The evaluation used the criteria in the wildfire hazard severity analysis of the National Fire Protection Association's NFPA 299 Standard for Protection of Life and Property from Wildfire, 1997 Edition. Figure WF -1 shows the areas at high risk for fires within each county.23 Figure WF -1 Areas of High Fire Risk (2002)23 NW1:M Source: Progress Report on the Alationa! Fire Plan in Washington State, Department of Natural Resources, September 2002. As seen from the map preceding, Jefferson County is among the counties in which the wildfire threat is high. Jefferson County communities that are on the list of areas at high risk for urban interface wildfires are: Brinnon, Port Hadlock, Port Townsend, and Quilcene. In 2016, however, the focus of the WA DNR is on the Wildland Urban Interface Communities at risk based on a statistical mean return rate for fires, which excludes Jefferson County communities that are in Vs. 5 262 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) rural areas. Figure WF -2 shows the LandFire Mean Fire Return Interval throughout the state. East Jefferson county is yellow, which is "71-80 years .21" This is underscored by the apocryphal joking of local firefighters that the Olympic Peninsula is known as the "Silicon Forest" — not because of technology companies, but rather because it will not burn.

Wildland — Urban Interfaces (WUI) exist in a multiplicity of areas because Homeowners Associations, developers, etc. carve out communities while leaving extensive trees among and around the dwellings. The Mean Fire Return Interval is meaningless because increasingly forest fires are caused by human carelessness and can override natural checks and balances. Meanwhile, because of historical reasons, the ownership of DNR protected land is a checkerboard with privately own land, thus making it vulnerable to fires started on private lands. Figure WF -3, below, is a google earth view of the 21 City of Port Townsend to show how the wildland-urban interface is intermixed throughout the City. Table WF -2, below, is a gallery of recent WUI fires that impacted Jefferson County.

The Sunnyside Road Fire, } which is on state Department of Natural Resources (DNR) land, had consumed about 59 acres in the Skokomish Valley as of Monday, Aug. 31, according to Joe Miles, a 09/02/2015 Fire in Mason County Cuts Electric Service to Over spokesperson for DNR. 2000 Jefferson County Customers. Multiple agencies responded to fight the blaze; 68 personnel battled the fire, which as of Monday was contained. Cause of the fire is still unknown." By Leader Staff27. Vs. 5 265 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) "Firefighters on Sept. 5 kept this fireworks -induced wildfire from reaching homes on Beckett Point (the sea - level cabin community's southern edge, which is to the right) and the homes tucked into the tree line along Beckett Point Road. The fire started at about 3 p.m. on Monday, a result of kids playing with fireworks. Fickle winds fanned it to about 21 acres. It was 70 percent contained by 7 p.m. (This was the fire's calm section.) Soon after, a helicopter began dropping water along ridge -top brush and trees." Photo by James Robinson 21 Jefferson County and Port Townsend are served by 5 active fire districts, all with mutual aid agreements. During any fire incident, the incident commander can ask for units from any of the districts. At such times, units not involved redeploy to cover the areas left exposed by units fighting the wildfire. This "floating battalion" allows all of the districts to put more equipment on a fire and still have coverage in their home district. In the Beckett Point fire, for example, engines from three districts responded directly to the fire, Jefferson County Emergency Management set up an Incident Command Post for communications at the fire, and mutual aid partners extended coverage to those districts whose equipment responded to the fire. Jefferson County's fire season usually runs from mid-May through October. Any prolonged period without significant precipitation presents a potentially dangerous situation, particularly if strong dry, east winds prevail. The probability of a forest fire or an interface fire in any one location depends on fuel conditions, topography, the time of year, the past weather conditions, and if there is human activity such as debris burning, camping, etc., which are taking place. The combination of a dryer climate along with a plethora of illegal meth labs hidden in the wildlands has resulted in an increase the number and severity of urban interface fires. In addition, as the buildable space in the towns and city are used up, numerous housing developments are being created in the unincorporated portion of the county. Washington State fires responded to by city and county fire departments were largely started by human causes. Included in the list of human causes are cigarettes, fireworks, and outdoor burning. Wildland fires started by heat spark ember of flames caused the largest dollar loss, followed by debris burning and cigarettes. Loss per incident for debris fires is three times higher than any other fire cause. Vs. 5 266 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Short-term loss caused by fires is the complete destruction of valuable resources such as timber, wildlife, habitat, scenic vistas, and watersheds. Vulnerability to flooding increases due to the destruction of watersheds. Long-term effects are reduced amounts of timber for building and recreation areas. Home building near forests and wildlands increases the loss from fires. There is a trend for families to move into more rural and forested areas. Many homes are built with an effort to maintain the scenic aspects of the surrounding area. These areas are farther from firefighting assets. Frequently, there is little clearance of vegetation resulting in a lack of defensible space. 09/05/2011 On Sept. 5th firefighters came over the ridge to keep flames from reaching the houses on the ridge overlooking Beckett Point. Photo by James Robinson of the Leader Narrow access roads frequently found in these areas interfere with fire suppression efforts. Frequently roads are so narrow that standard sized fire apparatus cannot adequately turn around or pass on the roads. More diverse fire apparatus such as brush rigs and smaller engines are needed. Smaller fire districts may not be able to financially support these additional requirements. Vs. 5 267 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Climate Change "The Olympic Mountains are generally wetter than other parts of the state and have been less prone to wildfires. However, it is expected that warmer summer temperatures, higher evaporation rates, and declines in soil moisture will increase wildfire risk on the Peninsula29. The fire season will also lengthen due primarily to earlier snowmelt. One set of projections expects a 150% - 1,000% increase in annual area burned in forests west of the Cascades by the end of the century" When it comes to wildfire, the risk to property and people is determined primarily by the amount of development along the wildland/urban interface. In both Jefferson and Clallam County 24% of that interface is developed31 and this includes 14,686 homes in Clallam County and 10,475 homes in Jefferson County (in 2013).32' Conclusion Jefferson County, the City of Port Townsend, and the unincorporated towns of Brinnon, Port Hadlock, and Quilcene are all considered at high risk for urban interface wildfire — at least by the local fire districts. The commingling of residential enclaves adjacent to and among forested areas also means that these areas are highly vulnerable. A number of activities can be undertaken which will reduce the actual numbers of fires and resulting loss of fires. • Forest fire education and enforcement programs must be emphasized to include early reporting of fires • Effective early fire detection and emergency communication systems are essential • Effective early warning systems are essential to notify local inhabitants and persons in the area of the fire. An evacuation plan detailing primary and alternate escape routes should be developed if possible. • Fire -safe development planning should be undertaken by jurisdictions to include: - Sufficient fuel free areas around structures - Fire resistant roofing materials - Adequate two-way routes and turnaround areas for emergency vehicles - An adequate water supply - Development of local ordinances to control human caused fires Road closures should be increased during peak fire periods to reduce access to fire prone areas Vs. 5 268 September 2016 Jefferson County - City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) References - WILDFIRE (Forest - Urban Interface) 1.

Heavy snowfall is 4 inches or more in a 12 -hour period, or 6 inches or more in a 24-hour period in non -mountainous areas; and 12 inches or more in a 12 -hour period or 18 inches or more in a 24-hour period in mountainous areas'. Impacts and Effects: • Loss of life • Damage to homes and businesses • Damage to critical transportation infrastructure • Loss of timber resources • Emergency responses are delayed • Damage or loss of recreation facilities • Disruption of utilities • Loss of jobs due to damaged equipment and facilities • School closures • Business closures resulting in economic impacts Previous Occurrences: Although Jefferson County gets a few days of snow every year, the last snow storm justifying a disaster declaration was in December, 1955. In 1991, the area received an "Arctic Express Blizzard". Disaster declarations were made for severe winter storms in 2006 and 2007, but these were primarily due to wind, flooding and mudslides. In 2009, snow storms set record levels, thus resulting in Public Assistance (PA) being made available due to extraordinary costs of snow removal incurred by municipalities. Probability of Future Events: High — The State of Washington Hazard Mitigation Plan puts the probability of a severe winter storm in Jefferson County at "125%" — intending to mean that the county experiences more than one storm every year4. Most of the time, it manifests as damaging winds and rain, although it can be as ice or snow. History of Severe Winter Storms Affecting Jefferson County Most storms move into Washington from the Pacific Ocean with a southwest to northeast airflow. Maritime air reaching the Olympic Mountains rises upwards and cools. As this airflow reaches higher elevations and cools, there is less ability to hold moisture and precipitation occurs.

These storms have included high wind, snow, ice, rain, and hail. Snowstorms or blizzards are the most likely and potentially devastating phenomena, with the ability to isolate people from emergency services and to interrupt utility services and other lifelines. In 1996-1997, snowstorms were also associated with other natural hazards such as flooding and landslides. Ice storms can occur when rain falls out of the warm moist upper layer atmosphere into a dry layer with freezing or sub -freezing air near the ground. Rain freezes on contact with the cold ground and accumulates on exposed surfaces — as illustrated by Figure WS -1, a frozen Haller Fountain6. Snow Storms — Winter Storm — The National Weather Service defines a winter storm as having significant snowfall, ice, and/or freezing rain; the quantity of precipitation varies by elevation. Heavy snowfall is 4 inches or more in a 12 -hour period, or 6 inches or more in a 24-hour period in non -mountainous areas; and 12 inches or more in a 12 -hour period or 18 inches or more in a 24-hour period in mountainous areas'. Figure WS -2 shows Port Townsend after 12" of snow fell in a single day in 19558. Areas most vulnerable to winter storms are those affected by convergence of dry, cold air from the interior of the North American continent, and warm, moist air off the Pacific Ocean. Typically, significant winter storms occur during the transition between cold and warm periods. Counties considered most vulnerable to winter storm are 1) those most affected by conditions that lead to such storms, as described above, and 2) those with a recurrence rate of 50 percent, meaning the county experiences at least one damaging winter storm event every two years. If damaging wind storms are separated out, Jefferson County does not meet that criteria. HAZARD IDENTIFICATION AND VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT All areas of the County are vulnerable to various severe local storms. Western Washington has had an average of 11.4 inches of snowfall annually over the past 30 years. Windstorms generally occur between October and April as well. Power outages are common as a result of these storms. Road travel is often treacherous due to snow, ice, and fallen trees. As a result, schools are often closed and local businesses are impacted. Emergency responses can be delayed. The general effects of most severe local storms are immobility and loss of electrical power and telephone service. Physical damage to homes and businesses can occur from wind damage, accumulation of snow, Vs. 5 272 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) ice, and hail. Even a small accumulation of snow can wreak havoc on transportation systems due to a lack of snow clearing equipment and experienced drivers. If damaging wind storms are included in the winter storms, Jefferson County is considered among the most vulnerable to storms. Counties considered most vulnerable to high winds are 1) those most affected by conditions that lead to high winds, as described above, and 2) those with a high wind recurrence rate of 100 percent, meaning the county experiences at least one damaging high wind event every year. Counties that meet both criteria are highlighted in Figure WS -3, below9.

A recurrence rate greater than 100% means that Jefferson County has more than one damaging wind storm a year. If damaging winds are excluded from the winter storms, Jefferson County is not considered vulnerable to winter storms. Areas most vulnerable to winter storms are those affected by convergence of dry, cold air from the interior of the North American continent, and warm, moist air off the Pacific Ocean. Typically, significant winter storms occur during the transition between cold and warm periods.

Source: NOPRCD Re Vs. 5 278 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2009) Conclusion Jefferson County is at high risk for wind storms and coastal flooding, but not recognized as being at high risk for winter storms, as defined by the weather services. Severe local storms are probably the most common widespread hazard. They affect the entire county area when they occur. These types of storms can quickly overwhelm county resources. Citizens should be prepared for these storms; family plans should be developed, disaster kits should be assembled, and every family member should be taught how to shut off utilities to prevent damage from abrupt resumption and to prevent damage from freezing and breaking pipes. Initiating early dismissal from schools and businesses is an effective mitigation measure and should be encouraged. Local jurisdiction plans should provide a priority for road and street clearance, provision of emergency services, mutual aid with other public entities, and procedures for requesting state and federal aid if needed. The public should be given information on emergency preparedness and self-help to prepare for better response during severe storms.

Since many of the natural hazard risks we face are a function of man-made hazards or events, we have included those in this plan. The objective is to evolve the Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan into a full All Hazard Mitigation Plan and use it to improve Jefferson County's ability to deal with the full spectrum of natural and man-made hazards. AIRCRAFT MISHAP (Commercial / Civil / Military) SUMMARY The Hazard: This type of hazard is the failure of an aircraft to suspend itself in flight due to mechanical or human error resulting in a collision with the ground.' Impacts and Effects: • Possible loss of life • Possible injuries to aircraft occupants and to people on the ground • Loss of aircraft • Loss of property on the ground at the crash site • Increased danger of fires Previous Occurrences: • March 21, 1975. An Air Force C141 crashes into the Olympic Mountains near Quilcene Washington. The presumed crash site of an Air Force C141 Starlifter was in a rugged, roadless section of the Olympic Mountains. The four -engine jet of the Air Force Military Airlift Command was carrying 16 persons, including a crew of 10 based at McChord Air Force Base near Tacoma, and six passengers. The plane was on a flight from Yokota Air Base in Japan to McChord.2 In 2007, a small private aircraft experienced a low -impact crash on landing at the Jefferson County airport. There were no injuries. Pilot claimed a gust of wind caused momentary loss of control resulting in the wingtip touching the ground and spinning the aircraft around.3 July 29, 2013. The pilot of a small aircraft that crashed while attempting to land over the weekend was due to be released late Monday. The small yellow plane, a vintage Piper PA -18-135 Super Cub, crashed in a field off Center Road while attempting to land Saturday after the pilot, Gerald Ryder, determined he did not have enough fuel to reach Jefferson County International Airport in Port Townsend.' • September 28, 2015. Two people were seriously injured when their small plane crashed at a Port Townsend golf course Monday afternoon, East Jefferson Fire officials first tweeted at 1:35 p.m. that a small plane crashed at the Discovery Bay Golf Course in the 7400 block of Cape George Road. A witness told authorities that the Cessna -type plane stuttered and appeared to lose power before crashing into heavy brush just north of the 17th hole tee box .5 Vs. 5 283 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) • December 30, 2016.

Emergency responders gather around the Piper Super Cub that flipped during an attempted landing in Quilcene. Photo from PDN; Taken by Jefferson County Sherriffs Office. Probability of Future Events: Low — The lack of regularly scheduled air service limits the probability of events to small general aviation operations that occur most frequently on weekends. Definition In the context of emergency management and disaster planning, airplane accidents refer to major accidents, resulting in the loss of the hull with multiple fatalities. Civil aviation is a very strictly regulated activity. A complex web of federal regulations and protocols governs airplanes manufacture, maintenance, and operation. This has resulted in falling accident rates in spite of the persistent increase in air traffic. But major crashes result in the sudden and catastrophic loss of life. A large airplane accident can result in more deaths in an instant than almost any other kind of event. Hence, the public and the media are very concerned with air safety and they expect strict regulation of civilian aviation! History of Aircraft Mishaps in Jefferson County There has not been a major air accident in the Puget Sound region, including Jefferson County, in recent history. However, accidents in other parts of the country allow us to examine the potential vulnerabilities we face in this area. In October 2007, ten people died when a plane carrying a parry of skydivers from Idaho back to Shelton Washington crashed near Yakima Washington.' In February 2009, a commuter plane with 49 people on board crashed near Buffalo, NY, killing everyone on board.9 And finally, in January 2009, there was the heroic landing of a U.S. Airways Airbus A320 with 154 passengers in the Hudson river after the plane lost all engines due to a bird strike during take -off." Everyone survived. Vs. 5 284 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Hazard Assessment and Vulnerability Assessment The Puget Sound region is vulnerable to two types of major air transportation accidents. One is a crash involving a large passenger aircraft, while the other is an airplane crash causing casualties on the ground. Despite the large number of planes flying over heavily populated areas, the number of crashes killing or injuring non -passengers is quite small. In general, crashes are most likely to occur within five miles of an airport, typically along flight paths. Weather is a significant factor in these air transportation accidents. Down bursts, thunderstorms, and ice are the primary weather-related events that increase risk. The Jefferson County International Airport is a general aviation facility with a single 3000 foot east -west runway at an elevation of 107 feet above sea -level. The City of Port Townsend is within a five -mile radius of the Jefferson County airport, but is not along the take -off and landing flight path; therefore, the probability of a mass casualty event if a plane crashed in this area is small unless the plane itself is a passenger aircraft. There are two Home Owner Associations located along the flight path one each off of either end of the runway, but both are somewhat protected by a ring of hills surrounding the airport. Large passenger aircraft originating from SeaTac Airport in Seattle, and military over flights originating from the region's numerous military bases add to the possibility of a mass -casualty event if they were to crash in Jefferson County or within the city of Port Townsend. Since these flights are at high altitudes and supersonic speeds, the probability is small that any given aircraft would have a simultaneous combination of problems, direction, and speed to cause it to drop into the few concentrated population areas of Jefferson County. CONCLUSION Although a rare possibility, the catastrophic potential of a major aircraft crash in Jefferson County or the City of Port Townsend cannot be ignored. Significant damage to property, utilities and transportation routes could result. Significant financial impact could occur, as well as the inevitable heavy loss of life.

Vs. 5 286 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) BANKRUPTCY SUMMARY The Hazard: A large-scale regional or national event such as an earthquake, pandemic, a severe economic recession or depression or simply strategically placed massive incompetence or malfeasance can cause such severe economic disruption as to force a governmental entity into bankruptcy. Impacts and Effects: • Breakdown of governmental institutions • Imperilment of life due to the inability to provide life-support services and medicines • Compromise of immediate response such as emergency shelter, food, water, and medical treatment due to lack of adequate inventories • Impairment of long term recovery if businesses cannot function • Permanent loss of businesses if recovery is delayed • Loss of schools, homes, and businesses as people abandon a moribund geographic area Previous Occurrences: During the period from 1890 to 1893, Port Townsend experienced a severe local depression when the railroads stopped at Seattle and Tacoma rather than continuing all the way to Port Townsend.' Probability of Future Events: Moderate — In 2008, the U.S. entered into a recession. The Port Townsend paper bill, the largest employer in the area, was teetering on the edge of bankruptcy, and the county had to lay off 13 people to balance its budget. At that time, the city and the county tightened their budgets, laid off people, and restructured some of their operations. Since that time, the local government has stabilized, albeit at a lower level of employment. From time to time, local municipalities and special districts run up against their borrowing capacity due to external mandates or local disasters. The possibility of a bankruptcy scenario is real, although currently circumstances are not as bad as in previous years. The current biggest threat is to the smaller special districts that have assets located in hazard zones and who can experience catastrophic loss very easily. There is also the possibility of another recession within the next 5 -years that will again stress local governments. Definition Bankruptcy is a legal status of a person or other entity that cannot repay the debts it owes to creditors. In most jurisdictions, bankruptcy is imposed by a court order often initiated by the debtor.z Bankruptcy in the United States is governed under the United States Constitution (Article 1, Section 8, Clause 4) which authorizes Congress to enact "uniform Laws on the subject of Bankruptcies throughout the United States." Congress has exercised this authority several times since 1801, most recently by Vs. 5 287 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) adopting the Bankruptcy Reform Act of 1978, as amended, codified in Title 11 of the United States Code and commonly referred to as the "Bankruptcy Code" ("Code 11).3 Chapter 9, Title 11, United States Code is a chapter of the United States Bankruptcy Code, available exclusively to municipalities, that assists them in the restructuring of debts. On July 18, 2013 Detroit, Michigan became the largest city in the history of the United States to file for Chapter 9 Bankruptcy protection. Jefferson County, Alabama, in 2011 and Orange County, California, in 1994 are also notable examples. "The term 'municipality' means political subdivision or public agency or instrumentality of a State. ,4 A large-scale regional or national event such as an earthquake, pandemic, a severe economic recession or depression or simply strategically placed massive incompetence or malfeasance can cause such severe economic disruption as to force a governmental entity into bankruptcy. Figure BR-lbelow shows all municipalities filing for Chapter 9 bankruptcy protection during the period 2010 - 2015, along with local governments voting to approve a bankruptcy filing.5 Cities, towns and counties are shown in red. Utility authorities and other municipalities are displayed in gray. Multiple municipalities have filed for bankruptcy in some cities, such as Omaha, Neb., so not all markers are visible.

"clearly insolvent on a cash flow basis" and that the city would finish Detroit, Michigan 2013 its current fiscal year with a US$162 million cash-flow shortfall. It also stated that the city's budget deficit would reach $386 million in less than two months and that one-third of the city's budget was going toward retiree benefits.' Vs. 5 289 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) History of bankruptcy in Jefferson County, Washington During the late 1880's, there was a boom period in which Port Townsend leaders thought the city would become the capitol of Washington. In the fiscal year 1884-1885, for example, a larger number of steamships entered and cleared through Port Townsend than in any other port in the United States. In 1889, Port Townsend's leading real estate speculators created the Port Townsend Southern Railroad with the intention of building a line from Port Townsend to Portland, Oregon. "Port Townsend's population suddenly swelled to some 7,000. During a brief few years were constructed the majority of mansions and major business buildings revered today for their history."' In the spring of 1890 the Port Townsend Southern Railroad negotiated a deal with the Oregon Improvement Company, a subsidiary of Union Pacific, to build the proposed railroad. By the summer of 1891, the line had been built from Port Townsend to Quilcene, but no farther. By Thanksgiving, The Oregon Improvement Company was put into receivership as a combination of bad management and a national depression drove the economy down. `By the time the depression reached panic proportions in 1893, the city's population had dwindled to some 2,000 souls."9 Although it did not declare bankruptcy, the Port Townsend economy languished in the doldrums until the 1920's when the paper mill was built. HAZARD IDENTIFICATION AND ANALYSIS In 1994, Orange County California declared bankruptcy when their county treasurer of 24 years drove the county into insolvency by "investing" in derivatives to subsidize the county's reliance on interest income. Leveraged with two dollars borrowed for every dollar of capital, falling interest rates made it impossible to pay back creditors. When the state refused to help the county, it was left with no choice to file Chapter 9 bankruptcy. The circumstances deserve consideration for a number of reasons: • California Proposition 13 had limited local government ability to raise taxes. • In FY94, interest made up 12% of Orange County's revenues vs. 3% for all other California counties. By FY95, it was intended that interest would be 35% of revenues. • The county turned to riskier investments to offset declining revenues in the face of increasing costs. • County government declared bankruptcy on December 6, 1994. • The state refused to intervene, thus negating an implied moral obligation of states to help their municipalities. • Voters rejected a half -cent sales tax increase as part of a recovery plan. In When Government Fails: The Orange County Bankruptcy, Mark Baldassare identified three conditions necessary for a municipal bankruptcy: political fragmentation, voter distrust, and state fiscal austerity.lo Vs. 5 290 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) The Jefferson County Washington Parallel In 2009, Jefferson County was experiencing similar financial difficulties as Orange County did in 1994: • Washington Proposition 747 limited the growth of property taxes to 1% per year without specific taxpayer approval. Overturned by the State Supreme Court, its provisions were quickly reenacted by the legislature because of public outcry. • A major recession, started by the collapse of the subprime mortgage market, dried up both building permit revenues and interest income to the county. • By the end of February 2007, the county had earned $283,924 in interest income on the $1,094,358 it had collected for the full year. By the end of February 2009, the county had taken in $26,051 in interest income." • County voters have rejected two bond measures to fund the building of a new elementary school, thus forcing the consolidation of schools and laying off of teachers. • Washington State was nine billion dollars in the red for the 2010-2011 biennium, and cutting back programs and levels of funding to local governments. Fast forward to 2016, and we see that there still are issues that make local jurisdictions vulnerable to the next downswing in the economy or local and regional natural disasters that cause considerable damage to public or private infrastructure: • The City of Port Townsend is mandated to enhance its water treatment by the Federal government. It is building a new $16 million water treatment facility and an $8 million seismically sound 5 million -gallon water reservoir to replace an existing one that is deteriorating, thus adding significant long-term debt to the city budget12; • The Brinnon Fire Department lost an unmanned station and an engine and related equipment due to flooding in 2015. The Chief, at that time, indicated that they had $14,000 in damage to the engine, a $40,000 bill for flood cleanup, one station closed due to disrepair, and the cost to move the flooded -out station estimated at $1.2 million13; • Port Townsend Paper Corporation, the largest private employer in the county, is built on the shoreline of Port Townsend Bay and is vulnerable to tsunamis. Jefferson County is unique in Washington in that it is becoming a retirement county. Over 56% of the population is over 65 now. 14 Over sixty percent of revenues are transfer payments, contingent on the health of the financial markets. The primary commercial sectors of the county economy are the paper mill, a thriving maritime industry, and tourism. The majority of Jefferson County economic assets are north of State Highway 104 on the Quimper peninsula. The Quimper Peninsula has three main arterials, Highway 104, U. S. 101, and the State Ferry System. The loss of any one of these for a significant period of time impacts sales tax and business tax revenues; forces some businesses to close; and puts stress on local government services. Although many states, counties, and municipalities were hard hit by the 2009 recession, circumstances are such that Jefferson County did not reach a tipping point. Jefferson County, however, does show evidence of the precursors that make it vulnerable to entering a bankruptcy scenario. In an emergency management context, this could result in the outsourcing of 9-1-1 capabilities to other counties, the elimination of Vs. 5 291 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) emergency management as a separate entity and its being brought back under the auspices of the Sheriffs Office or outsourced, as well. Emergency services in the county would have to go on an austerity program even as the influx of retirees is putting an increased demand on health and EMT services. Conclusion Jefferson County and the City of Port Townsend are vulnerable to significant economic disruptions due to their geography, location and the ease with which they can be isolated. The precursors to municipal bankruptcy are present and suggest that it is possible for circumstances to degrade sufficiently to push area jurisdictions in that direction. Strong cooperation among county and city officials is necessary to weather the storm and prevent a local economic disaster. Any kind of significant disaster event, such as a major earthquake, tsunami, flood or a prolonged loss of power due to failure of the electrical grid, can push Jefferson County, the City of Port Townsend and / or any of the special districts over the tipping point and necessitate contemplating bankruptcy. The area is one natural disaster away from a financial disaster.

Demonstrations, riots, strikes, public nuisances, domestic disputes, terrorism, and/or criminal activities fall into this category. Impacts and Effects: • Loss of life • Loss of property • Closure of businesses • Looting • Arson • Long term divisiveness in the community • Adverse impacts on tourism and economic development • Increased demands on law enforcement and emergency response resources • Increased demands on mental health resources Previous Occurrences: Multiple domestic disputes, criminal activities, and public nuisances occur each month and are routinely dealt with by local law enforcement authorities. In 1998, the Washington State EOC was activated in response to the Makah Indian Nation proposed whale -hunting activities at Neah Bay. Probability of Future Events: High — The broad definition assures occurrences. Even with a narrow defmition, local schools receive bomb threats once or twice a year, and local peace groups hold periodic sit-ins at the front gate of U.S. Navy Magazine — Indian Island. Figure CD -1 - Sit-in at U.S. Navy Magazine — Indian Island (NAVMAG) Entrance 37 people were arrested at Indian Island, a naval base near Port Townsend, Washington. The protest was one of many carried out across the country as part of a national "Declaration of Peace" campaign, which calls for a comprehensive plan for withdrawal from Iraq and opposition to future invasions of other countries. The arrests were witnessed by over 350 supporters who participated in a 4 mile peace march to the navy base, which is the main weapons shipping depot on the west coast.2 Source: DeclarationofPeaceWaBlogspot.com Vs. 5 295 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) DEFINITION' Any incident that disrupts a community to the degree that police intervention is required to maintain public safety is a civil disturbance or civil disorder. Demonstrations, riots, strikes, public nuisances, domestic disputes, terrorism, and/or criminal activities fall into this category. The hazard could surface in any community, and can be sparked by disagreements ranging from simple family disturbances to political, racial, belief, social and economic differences that escalated beyond an exchange of words. HISTORY OF CIVIL DISTURBANCES IN JEFFERSON COUNTY Jefferson County has not experienced the violence associated with riots occurring in nearby Seattle in the 1990s. In Seattle, a small-scale riot occurred after the 1992 Rodney King verdict. After the jury's decision was announced small groups of people roamed downtown Seattle streets smashing windows, lighting dumpster fires and overturning cars. In 1999, during the World Trade Organization Ministerial Conference, riots resulting in injury and death of participants and bystanders occurred. The City of Seattle declared an emergency and the Governor signed a proclamation of emergency allowing commitment of state resources to support affected local jurisdictions. In 1998, the Washington State EOC was activated in response to the Makah Indian Nation proposed whale - hunting activities at Neah Bay. At the request of the Clallam County Sheriff, the State of Washington provided resources from the National Guard, Washington State Patrol, Department of Fish and Wildlife, Department of Natural Resources and Emergency Management Division to control disturbances between protestors and residents. County High Schools including Port Townsend, Chimacum, and Quilcene have all had bomb scares and have had instances of students bringing weapons to school. Following the Columbine High School experience in Colorado, such incidents have been approached with intense seriousness. Although nothing approaching the level of Columbine has occurred, school officials are aware and cognizant of the possibilities. As the conflict in Iraq became more of a certainty, several protesting groups promised "civil disobedience". While the larger marches were held in Seattle and Tacoma, there was vocal opposition evident in Jefferson County. Participants did not resort to violence, but wherever there are strong opposing views, the potential existed for words and signs to be replaced by more violent activities. The Naval Magazine (NAVMAG) continues to be the main target for low-level demonstrations. Figure CD -2 shows a group of peace marchers that started their trek at the NAVMAG gate and marched to the Pope Marine Park in Port Townsend, a distance of about nine miles.' Vs. 5 296 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Figure CD -2 - A Peace March from NAVMAG to Port Townsend.4 Source: Port Townsend Leader HAZARD IDENTIFICATION AND VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT Civil disturbances are divisive, often complex in their origin, and are possible in nearly every community in the nation. As the population continues to grow, so will the concentrations of ethnic groups, varied perspectives, and disparate economic status. Jefferson County has experienced a growth rate that has outpaced the rest of the State of Washington. Diverse philosophies exist in county residents. As the economy fluctuates due to economic realities of declining fishing and forest industries, emotions tend to run high. Tourism, a major source of revenue for county businesses could be affected by an increasing potential or the actual developments of civil disturbances. That being said, the Peace Movement in Port Townsend tends to be just that — peaceful. The city is somewhat unique in that it has a significant military establishment, the Naval Magazine on Indian Island, across from a city that was discovered and populated by the "Hippie" generation in the 70's, and who are now many of the senior citizens. Generally, everyone is tolerant of each other's views, and protests tend to be lawful. If circumstances were to arise in which outsiders came in to cause a problem because of some kind of incident, the city and / or county would have to ask for outside help in dealing with it. Vs. 5 297 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) CONCLUSION The potential for civil disturbances exists in Jefferson County. Main participants might not be residents of the county. County law enforcement resources are aware and have practiced response scenarios if such disturbances occur. References — CIVIL DISTURBANCE 1.

Most dams have a section called a spillway or weir over which, or through which, water flows, either intermittently or continuously, and some have hydroelectric power generation systems installed.112 A levee is an embankment raised to prevent a river from overflowing. Levees are also small ridges or raised areas bordering an irrigated field. A dike is an embankment built along the shore of a sea or lake or beside a river to hold back the water and prevent flooding.' "Dams are considered "installations containing dangerous forces" under International Humanitarian Law due to the massive impact of a possible destruction on the civilian population and the environment."' Dam failure is the uncontrolled release of impounded water resulting in downstream flooding that can affect life and property. Flooding, earthquakes, blockages, landslides, lack of maintenance, improper operation, poor construction, vandalism or terrorism can cause dam failures. Dam failures are comparatively rare, but can cause immense damage and loss of life when they occur.' Impacts and Effects: • Loss of life • Loss of homes and businesses • Loss or long-term disruption to water supplies • Firefighting water sources adversely impacted • Business depending on large quantities of water severely impacted • Road and bridge washouts • Loss of crops and livestock • Damage or destruction of salmon streams • Damage or loss of recreation facilities • Loss of jobs due to damaged equipment and facilities Previous Occurrences: Dam failure has not been a major concern for the residents of Jefferson County. There has been no history of lives lost, property loss, or other damage as the result of dam failures. Probability of Future Events: Low — Increasing to Moderate. Regular inspections mitigate the possibility of a spontaneous dam failure without an external factor. A severe earthquake could cause the destruction of any given dam but the probability of a severe earthquake is low, even as the consequences are high. The National Inventory of Dams (NID) contains information on approximately 79,000 dams throughout the U.S. that are more than 25 feet high, hold more than 50 acre-feet of water, or are considered a significant hazard if they fail. The current National Inventory for Dams for Jefferson County lists 4 dams that meet that criteria. Table DF -I shows the four Jefferson County dams listed on the inventory'. Vs. 5 299 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Definition Dam failure is the uncontrolled release of impounded water resulting in downstream flooding that can affect life and property. Flooding, earthquakes, blockages, landslides, lack of maintenance, improper operation, poor construction, vandalism or terrorism can cause dam failures. "All dams are assigned a high, significant, or low hazard classification based on potential of loss of life and damage to property should the dam fail. This classification is considered the Dam Hazard, and indicates the potential hazard to the downstream area resulting from failure or mis-operation of the dam or facilities. Classifications are updated based on development and changing demographics upstream and downstream. Washington State describes each of the different hazard classifications as follows: • Low - A dam where failure or mis-operation results in no probable loss of human life and low economic and/or environmental loss. Losses are principally limited to the owner's property. Significant - A dam where failure or mis-operation results in the potential of one to six losses of human life but can cause economic loss, environmental damage, disruption of lifeline facilities, or impact other concerns. These dams are often located in predominantly rural or agricultural areas but could be located in areas with more dense populations and significant infrastructure. High - A dam where failure or mis-operation will probably cause a potential loss of greater than seven human lives."'

Both publicly- owned dams are property of the City of Port Townsend. Morgan Hill Reservoir, which is at the highest point in the City of Port Townsend, also used to be on the list. It was categorized as a Category IA, High Downstream Hazard Potential because it is in the middle of the city. It no longer meets state standards, so the reservoir is left dry and its risk of a downstream catastrophe is nil. The City intends to surplus the property in the future. The Lords Lake East and Lords Lake North dams are categorized as having a "High Downstream Hazard Potential' with a population risk of 31 — 300. Economic loss that could result if these dams were to fail is rated as extreme with 11-100 inhabited structures downstream of the dam. High hazard dams (dams located upstream of three or more residences) are supposed to be inspected on a 6 -year inspection cycle. Figure DF -5, below, shows that a failure of the Lords Lake East Dam has the potential to inundate a significant portion of the Quilcene area of Jefferson County."

Previous history, inspections, and information received by the Department of Ecology, however, indicated that Jefferson County's dams did not have significant safety deficiencies. As a result, the Washington State Department of Ecology's "2000 Report to the Legislature Status ofHigh and Significant HazardDams in Washington State with Safety Deficiencies" does not indicate that these dams have significant safety deficiencies. In general, periodic inspections and follow-up engineering analysis are conducted to: • Identify defects, especially due to aging • Evaluate dam operations and maintenance • Assess dam structural integrity and stability • Assess the stability of dam structures under earthquake conditions Inspections look not only at the dam, but also at the downstream development that has taken place to ensure that encroachment into the area project to be flooded in the event of a dam failure has not taken place. Such encroachment would change the hazard classification. The State Dam Safety Office is also attempting to examine smaller dams such as city's old reservoir systems. These dams were often built many years before stringent requirements were in place. The State Dam Safety Office is attempting to get these smaller dams on a schedule for comprehensive inspections and repair as well. While the failure of projects with a high potential for loss of life and property is remote, the number of failures of low hazard projects that provide important infrastructure roles may be on the rise. Conclusion Three state statues deal with safety of dams and other hydraulic structures: Chapters 43.21A, 86.16, and 90.03 RCW. These laws provide authority to approve plans for dams but also to inspect hydraulic works and require appropriate changes in maintenance and operation. Periodic inspections are the primary tool for detecting deficiencies at dams that could lead to failure. Periodic inspections help identify dams where significant development has occurred downstream resulting in the need for more stringent building and planning codes due to greater population at risk. County building permits consider dams in the permit process. It is noteworthy that a dam's classification can move from Significant Risk (Cat. 2) to High Risk (Cat. IA), not because the dam is becoming structurally unsound, but rather because there is more development downstream that can be damaged in a breach.

Previous Occurrences: Hazardous material spills occur frequently with varying degrees of response necessitated. The last significant response was in 2008 when a leak developed in a propane truck. Nearby restaurants and a school were evacuated and State Highway 19 was closed until the situation was brought under control. Probability of Future Events: High — Hazardous material spills happen 25 — 30 times per year. Most are small and are not reportable. The State Department of Ecology requires spills to be reported if they are over 25 gallons. Definition: The production, use, storage, transportation and disposal of hazardous material substances and wastes, places the public and the environment at significant risk. A release may occur by spilling, leaking, emitting toxic vapors, or any other process that enables the materials to escape its container, enter the environment, and create a potential hazard. The nature and extent of this risk is difficult to determine as the process involved in hazardous materials and toxic waste management are dynamic. Many federal laws and regulations exist to manage the manufacture, utilization, and disposal of hazardous materials. "Hazardous materials are defined and regulated in the United States primarily by laws and regulations administered by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT), and the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC). Each has its own defmition of a "hazardous material." OSHA's definition includes any substance or chemical which is a "health hazard" or "physical hazard," including: chemicals which are carcinogens, toxic agents, irritants, corrosives, sensitizers; agents which act on the hematopoietic system; agents which damage the lungs, skin, eyes, or mucous membranes; chemicals which are combustible, explosive, flammable, oxidizers, pyrophorics, unstable -reactive or water -reactive; and chemicals which in the course of normal handling, use, or storage may produce or release dusts, gases, fumes, vapors, mists or smoke which may have any of the previously mentioned characteristics. (Full defmitions can be found at 29 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 1910.1200.) Vs. 5 313 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) EPA incorporates the OSHA definition, and adds any item or chemical which can cause harm to people, plants, or animals when released by spilling, leaking, pumping, pouring, emitting, emptying, discharging, injecting, escaping, leaching, dumping or disposing into the environment. (40 CFR 355 contains a list of over 350 hazardous and extremely hazardous substances.) DOT defines a hazardous material as any item or chemical which, when being transported or moved in commerce, is a risk to public safety or the environment, and is regulated as such under its Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration regulations (49 CFR 100-199), which includes the Hazardous Materials Regulations (49 CFR 171-180). In addition, hazardous materials in transport are regulated by the International Maritime Dangerous Goods Code; Dangerous Goods Regulations of the International Air Transport Association; Technical Instructions of the International Civil Aviation Organization; and U.S. Air Force Joint Manual, Preparing Hazardous Materials for Military Air Shipments. 113 History of Hazardous Materials Spills Affecting Jefferson County Data reported to Jefferson County about occurrences happening to hazardous materials averages from 25 to 30 per year. Clean up is the responsibility of the spiller; however the spiller or waste -dumper may not be known. Occurrences have ranged from marine oil spills during bunkering operations to spilled fuel or oil on the road from accidents or overturned containers. Calls are received regarding illegal burning, propane leaks, illegal dumping, blasting caps, sewage, and many other various incidents. Figure HM -1 shows total reported spills by county for the period 2000 to 2007.4 Jefferson County is among the lower risk counties, but probably because there are far fewer chemical facilities to present opportunities.

During the Persian Gulf operations known as "Desert Storm" and during Operation Iraqi Freedom, several thousand tons of explosive passed through eastern Jefferson County between the Hood Canal Bridge and Naval Magazine Indian Island. The type of cargo that is loaded/offloaded at NAVMAG Indian Island is primarily ammunition (e.g., bombs, bullets and missiles). Contract trucks and trailers made several trips each day moving materials between Indian Island and Naval installations in Kitsap County. Trucks moving hazardous materials to Port Angeles and locations in Clallam County often also transit Jefferson County roads. Illegal drug labs encountered by state and local agencies increased dramatically from 38 in 1990 to 1,890 in 2001 at its peak, to 92 in 2010. Ecology is responsible for handling and disposing of hazardous substances found at illegal drug lab sites.' The cumulative number for Jefferson County was 44 through 2012, the last year that Ecology has posted on its website. Figure HM -3 below shows the cumulative reports through 2011.' Table HM -1 breaks out the number of clandestine labs reported by year through 2012.8 While the absolute numbers for Jefferson County look low compared to King County and the more heavily populated counties, Table HM -2 shows that the cumulative number of labs reported in the more rural counties of the Olympic Peninsula are actually higher on a per capita basis that for the urban areas.9 Vs. 5 316 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend G1a913M 36 All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Figure HM -3 - Clandestine Drug Lab and Dumps by County' A y.Fracifle Ze Clandestine Drug Lala and Dumps Reported Washington State Department of Ecology, 1999-2011 whstcnm 03 4 F San JLI,IR r y Peney OF"11e- 0kenagaa 216 Ftni'ry .. �151�15d 4CPVPf3K 9 32 A MOWN 14 I lf4lMAIR 27 3 WIDOW Ilvug109 1S 16 ig ` AAam6 WhKRkan 7i f L 6i�mrEfcFd � Caluwnl�bia� ` ,4-�o�i�l INAMIb 51A1111A i i Drug Labs & Dump "O -5a 51-100 - 101 - 600 Nearly all of Washington's clandestine drug labs manufacture methamphetamine — also called meth, crystal, crank, or speed.

The less populated counties near good transportation routes provide havens for drug manufacture and transportation because they do not have the resources focus heavily on drug interdiction. This is exacerbated by the making of marijuana available legally for recreational use. It has encouraged "drug tourism" and an influx of transients looking for easy access to marijuana. This, in turn, has resulted in a degradation of community facilities as the parks and public areas become trashed with hazardous materials.

These risks are compounded by natural hazards (e.g. earthquakes, floods, and severe storms). Each incident's impact and resulting response depends on a multitude of interrelated variables that range from the quantity and specific characteristic of the material to the conditions of the release and area/population centers involved. The county Local Emergency Planning Committee (LEPC) was established under the provisions of the State and Federal law (The Community Emergency Planning and Community Right -to- Know Act-- EPCRA). The purpose of the LEPC is to coordinate the development of emergency plans and procedures for dealing with a hazardous materials incident. The committee's charter is to conduct hazard identification, vulnerability analysis, and risk management activities. Additionally, they are chartered to develop and maintain emergency response plans appropriate to hazardous materials based on the volumes and types of substances found in, or transported through their jurisdictions. The risk of both spills and clandestine drug labs and usage is increasing as the recent oil boom results in oil transportation for export and the advent of recreational drug laws encourages the development of a drug production industry in the rural areas. Conclusion The Hazardous Material Emergency Preparedness (HMEP) Grant of 1998 made it possible for Jefferson County to revise plans to address the mandates of the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act (SARA) and EPCRA. For major marine oil and hazardous material spills, the Northwest Area Contingency Plan (ACP) will be used for all responses. It combines the resources of the local, State, and Federal governments. Two Geographic Response Plans (GRPs) cover the shorelines of Jefferson County, specifically the Washington Outer Coast and Hood Canal/Admiralty Inlet. They include resource priorities, protection and clean-up strategies, and local logistical information.

Urban fires are fires in cities and towns with the potential to rapidly spread to adjoining structures. These fires damage and destroy homes, schools, commercial buildings, and vehicles. By "major", we are excluding single structure fires unless they are of special note; we are including fires that were significant for their time. Impacts and Effects: Any or all of the following: • loss of life, • loss of property, • extensive damage to business and homes, • overtaxed emergency response system, • overtaxed healthcare provider system; and • long term, costly cleanup of damage. Previous Occurrences: Port Townsend has had its share of major fires. The most famous recent urban fire is the Aldrich Market Fire in which the oldest continuously operating grocery store in the state was destroyed in the City of Port Townsend in August of 2003. This was started by teenagers playing with fireworks in an outside stairwell. The building has been rebuilt, but condominiums have replaced the heritage seed business which occupied the second story. The seed company, which collected and propagated rare seeds from plants thought lost, had its entire collection destroyed. It never recovered from the loss.

Probability of Future Events: Moderate — Although Jefferson County and the City of Port Townsend have had major structure fires, conditions were not conducive to spread the fire to other buildings. County fire departments and the City of Port Townsend Fire Department have used rapid response, excellent training, and have exercised mutual aid agreements to prevent large fires from developing into a conflagration.

Two commercial buildings, the Hill & Landes building and the 12/27/1959 The Hill & Landes Fire Sheehan & Seavey Building, were destroyed by a fire that breached their common wal19. Billed as the "worst commercial fire since 1959". Aldrich's Market was the oldest continuously operating grocery store in the state, having been founded in 1895. The fire was started by children playing with fireworks in an outside stairwell that led to businesses 08/03/2003 Aldrich's Market Fire on the second story of the market. The Heritage Seed Company, which collected seeds from rare plants for propagation, lost all of its collection and went out of business. Aldrich's Market reopened in 2005, and continues to be the oldest grocery store in the state that has operated under the same trade name.10 Probability of Future Events: Moderate — Although Jefferson County and the City of Port Townsend have had major structure fires, conditions were not conducive to spread the fire to other buildings. County fire departments and the City of Port Townsend Fire Department have used rapid response, excellent training, and have exercised mutual aid agreements to prevent large fires from developing into a conflagration. Hazard Assessment and Vulnerability Assessment Port Townsend is a Victorian Seaport with its business district listed in the Registry of National Historic Sites. For decades, nobody had the money to tear down or replace the structures that people were Vs. 5 324 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) abandoning during a local depression in the late 1800s, until it became fashionable to preserve and restore them. Thus many homes and buildings in this small city are over 100 -years old, while many "newer" homes are easily over 50 -years old. Many homes and business structures were constructed prior to the time that construction and fire safety codes were in place and actively enforced. Many older residences are equipped with original wiring, making electrical systems a potential source of ignition. In older neighborhoods, houses are often very close together, lack sprinkler systems, and are conducive to rapidly spreading fire. A significant number of old industrial/business facilities have not been retrofitted with new electrical infrastructure or fire extinguishing sprinklers. Regular fire inspection of residences is non-existent, however recent hiring of fire prevention specialists and fire code inspectors will go far in addressing this situation before it becomes a problem. Water systems in older residential areas are aging. Some systems may fail to meet demands for fire protection water availability. Land use planning and system upgrades must be addressed in these areas. Residential area roads are often narrow and prevent the response of adequate fire apparatus. In areas where newer industrial and business buildings are located, these structures are reasonably secure from destruction in the case of a spreading urban fire. New industrial buildings are generally constructed of fire resistant materials, protected with automatic sprinkler systems, and have reasonable spacing between the structures. Although a major fire could occur in such facilities, it would not spread as quickly between neighboring structures. The Uniform Fire Code has required sprinklers in certain industrial and business buildings since 1985. As older buildings have been remodeled and reconfigured to accommodate shops and downtown hotels, they were required to meet more stringent fire codes as well. Although Jefferson County and the City of Port Townsend have had major structure fires, conditions are no longer conducive to spreading the fire to other buildings. County fire departments, which have absorbed the City of Port Townsend Fire Department, have used rapid response, excellent training, and have exercised mutual aid agreements to prevent large fires from developing into a conflagration. More stringent enforcement of fire codes has helped ensure reliability of the facilities' defenses. As the county has grown, fire districts have become better equipped and have more paid full-time firefighters on the staff. Fire stations are still located great distances apart; however, much improvement has been experienced over the past decade. Nevertheless, there are always scenarios in which firefighting resources can be stretched to their limits. Port Townsend has no gas pipelines, but it does have hundreds of propane tanks. It is not inconceivable to have an earthquake break the connections of many propane tanks and have several explode and cause fires. In addition, the earthquake could break the single water line from the city reservoir to Port Townsend and also damage the 5 million -gallon reservoir that the city currently uses. In one fell swoop, there could be multiple fires with casualties at the same time water to put out the fires is cut off. It is a low probability scenario, but one that is well within the bounds of possibility. Vs. 5 325 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Conclusion Multiple structure fires are an ever-present danger in all parts of the county. Jefferson County needs to continue public education on fire safety, fire alarms, and fire response. The County must continue its efforts in ensuring fire codes are appropriate and enforced. The current system to bring water to Port Townsend and to store it is being seismically retrofitted or replaced, depending on the conditions of the existing infrastructure. References — MAJOR FIRE 1.

In small jurisdictions, such as Jefferson County or the City of Port Townsend, this could be a hostage incident, bank robbery, bomb incident, civil disturbance or civil disorder, or a major natural disaster requiring significant control of an area. Many of the other hazards addressed in this Plan include a major law enforcement component in reacting to the event. Impacts and Effects: • Loss of life • Loss of property • Closure of businesses • Looting • Arson • Long term divisiveness in the community • Adverse impacts on tourism and economic development • Increased demands on law enforcement and emergency response resources • Increased demands on mental health Previous Occurrences: There are bomb scares at city and county schools two to three times a year, but none have been real so far. There are regular public displays of anti -war protest groups such as the "Raging Grannies", but again, everything is normally orderly and friendly. In 2009, there was a double - homicide with arson to hide the crime. Probability of Future Events: High — The increase of illegal methamphetamine production and distribution in rural areas such as Jefferson County serve to increase the probability of future incidents necessitating major law enforcement activity. By 2016, the prevalence of cell phone videos and the 24- hour news cycles on the internet exacerbated police mistakes and/or malfeasance across the nation until there was a violent national reaction from the black community to any police shootings. In some cities police are being ambushed and murdered. On August 14, 2016, there were reports of rioting and cars being set on fire in Milwaukee, Wisconsin as a reaction to a police shooting of an armed suspect after a police foot chase.'

Auer Ave. Definition Any incident that disrupts a community to the degree that police intervention is required to maintain public safety is a major police activity, civil disturbance or civil disorder. Demonstrations, riots, strikes, public nuisances, domestic disputes, terrorism, and/or criminal activities can all fall into this category. The hazard could surface in any community, and can be sparked by disagreements ranging from simple family disturbances to political, racial, belief, social and economic differences History of Major Police Activity in Jefferson County Jefferson County has not experienced the violence associated with riots occurring in nearby Seattle in the 1990s. In Seattle, a small-scale riot occurred after the 1992 Rodney King verdict. After the jury's decision was announced small groups of people roamed downtown Seattle streets smashing windows, lighting dumpster fires and overturning cars. In 1999, during the World Trade Organization Ministerial Conference, riots resulting in injury and death of participants and bystanders occurred. The City of Seattle declared an emergency and the Governor signed a proclamation of emergency allowing commitment of state resources to support affected local jurisdictions. In 1998, the Washington State EOC was activated in response to the Makah Indian Nation proposed whale - hunting activities at Neah Bay. At the request of the Clallam County Sheriff, the State of Washington provided resources from the National Guard, Washington State Patrol, Department of Fish and Wildlife, Department of Natural Resources and Emergency Management Division to control disturbances between protestors and residents. County High Schools including Port Townsend, Chimacum, and Quilcene have all had bomb scares and have had instances of students bringing weapons to school. Following the Columbine High School Vs. 5 328 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) experience in Colorado, such incidents have been approached with intense seriousness. Although nothing approaching the level of Columbine has occurred, school officials are aware and cognizant of the possibilities. In 2009, a double -homicide with arson to cover up the crime in the Quilcene area became the focal point of major police and fire activity. The alleged perpetrator was caught within 24 -hours, but the continued drain of law enforcement resources to process the crime scene and build a case had budgetary impact on county operations. June 2013 — A school employee doing maintenance at Blue Heron Middle School discovered a pipe bomb that had been brought to the school in the 1990s. He transported the device to the Port Townsend Police Station, which is housed in a former school building that now contains community service organizations. The police, the YMCA, Red Cross, food bank, city swimming pool, parts of the Port Townsend Library, and KPTZ-FM radio are all housed there and had to be evacuated until the Washington State Police bomb squad could be activated and transported to the scene — a two-hour trip from its station. The State Patrol bomb squad safely detonated the device.2 Figure MP -2 — Pipe Bomb Incident — June 28, 20132 .030 4 5;g•I r���ff}� � �T r A maintenance worker in a Blue Heron Middle Walter Chartrand of a Washington State Patrol bomb squad School classroom found this pipe bomb on June works on analyzing a pipe bomb brought to the Port 28.

As the population continues to grow, so will the concentrations of ethnic groups, varied perspectives, and disparate economic status. Jefferson County has experienced a growth rate that has outpaced the rest of the State of Washington. Diverse philosophies exist in county residents. As the economy fluctuates due to economic realities of declining fishing and forest industries, emotions tend to run high. Tourism, a major source of revenue for county businesses could be affected by an increasing potential or the actual developments of civil disturbances. The difficult economy combined with the smuggling of designer drugs through Canada and the increase in meth labs in rural areas increase the probability of criminal activity that requires a major law enforcement response. The Jefferson County Sheriffs Office has twenty deputies, and the City of Port Townsend has sixteen commissioned officers to cover an 1800 square mile county twenty -four -seven. During holidays or festivals, when man -power is ramped up to deal with a special influx of people, there is a limited additional surge capacity through personnel recall, activating all of the police volunteers and getting volunteers from nearby jurisdictions on a mutual -aid basis. In the event of an active shooter scenario, individual units of the Washington State Patrol may provide additional support, but specialized units such as a Swat Team or Armored vehicle take two -hours to be authorized, mount -up, and arrive in Port Townsend from their normal staging areas. Conclusion The potential for major police enforcement activity exists in Jefferson County. Main participants might not be residents of the county. County law enforcement resources are aware and have practiced response scenarios if such disturbances occur. Even with a quick response, state and federal law enforcement support will not arrive to help for many hours. Police actions that are considered fairly common and routine in large urban areas become major police activities in small rural communities. Serving a warrant, discovery of a pipe bomb, maintaining security at a major fire or festival — all can require resources from outside the agency because of limited personnel and sometimes because of specialized skill sets involved.

Previous Occurrences: Small occurrences happen every year. Most are below the reporting levels. Probability of Future Events: High — The Admiralty Inlet is one of the most heavily used shipping lanes in the country. Definition "An oil spill is the release of a liquid petroleum hydrocarbon into the environment, especially marine areas, due to human activity, and is a form of pollution. The term is usually applied to marine oil spills, where oil is released into the ocean or coastal waters, but spills may also occur on land. Oil spills may be due to releases of crude oil from tankers, offshore platforms, drilling rigs and wells, as well as spills of refined petroleum products (such as gasoline, diesel) and their by-products, heavier fuels used by large ships such as bunker fuel, or the spill of any oily refuse or waste oil."' The use, storage, transportation and disposal of hazardous petroleum material and wastes, places the public and the environment at significant risk. A release may occur by spilling, leaking, emitting toxic vapors, or any other process that enables the materials to escape its container, enter the environment, and create a potential hazard. The nature and extent of this risk is difficult to determine as the process involved in hazardous materials and toxic waste management are dynamic. Many federal laws and regulations exist to manage the manufacture, utilization, and disposal of hazardous materials. Vs. 5 333 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) History of Major Spills in Washington and Jefferson County' Data reported to Jefferson County about occurrences happening to hazardous materials average between 25 and 30 per year. Most are small. Spills under 10 gallons are not reportable. Clean up is the responsibility of the spiller; however, the spiller or waste -dumper may not be known. Occurrences have ranged from marine oil spills during bunkering operations to spilled fuel or oil on the road from accidents or overturned containers. The following spills in Washington and vicinity waters are notable :5 • The 1985 ARCO Anchorage tanker spill in which 239,000 gallons of crude oil was released into marine waters at Port Angeles; • The 1988 Nestucca barge spill which released 231,000 gallons of fuel oil into waters along the coast of Grays Harbor; • The disastrous 1989 Exxon Valdez spill in Alaska which unleashed 11 million gallons of crude oil into Prince William Sound; • The 1991 Texaco refinery spill at Anacortes which released 130,000 gallons of crude oil, of which 40,000 gallons went into Fidalgo Bay; and • The 1991 spill at the U.S. Oil refinery in Tacoma which involved 600,000 gallons of crude oil, most of which was stopped from entering state waters. • 2003 — Point Wells — Crews loading a tank barge with heavy fuel oil, overfilled the tanks and spilled approximately 4,700 barrels into Puget Sound. There was significant damage to the sensitive estuary. • 2004 — Legislature passes a bill calling for a "zero -spill' strategy. • 2004 — In October an unknown vessel spills 1,000 gallons in Dalco Pass, fouling 21 miles of shoreline. The Coast Guard eventually tracked the spilled oil back to the Polar Texas, owned by Arco. • 2011 — In January of 2011, a derelict barge, the Davy Crockett, leaked fuel oil into the Columbia River near Camas during an unpermitted scrap metal salvage operation. Cleanup and the dismantling and removal of the barge cost $23 million. Figure OS -1, below, shows oil spills in Jefferson County waters from July 2011 through March 2015.6 Since 2011, the only significant spill in Jefferson County waters has been 800 gallons of fuel from a recreation boat that developed mechanical problems off the coast.

Illustrative data on the kinds, types and frequencies of Washington maritime spills over 10,000 gallons from 2002 to 2015 is shown below (Table OS -1'): Table OS -1. Maritime Oil Spills in Washington over 10,000 Gallons (2002 — 2015)' Product Volume Date Source Type Cause Type Medium Bunker C/IFO/HFO 270,000 08/25/2004 Vessel Human Error Marine Gasoline 11,000 11/27/2003 Vehicle Unknown Fresh Water Data on spills is received from many sources. The State Emergency Management Department advises the county on all reports received. These reports may come from other state agencies, private citizens or federal agencies Oil Spill Readiness in Washington and Jefferson County As assessment of Washington's capacity to respond to a large-scale oil spill (48,000 — 50,000 barrels) was prepared by the Washington Oil Spill Advisory Council in February 2009.8 Local responders were asked to identify the recovery systems they would use for a 50,000 -barrel instantaneous release spill and a 48,000 -barrel continuous release spill of 1000 barrels an hour for 48 hours. Key findings are: • On -Water Capacity of the state is between 9,500 and 19,500 barrels of a 50,000 -barrel instantaneous release during the first 48 hours. • On -Water Recovery is greatly affected by environmental conditions and the availability of non- dedicated resources, such as equipment and personnel. • Non-mechanical responses such as dispersant could treat between 1,400 and 8,000 barrels of a 50,000 -barrel release using available resources. It could also interfere with on -water recovery by making the dispersing oil harder to collect. • Burning could treat as much as 4,800 gallons of a 50,000 -gallon spill. • A 50,000 -gallon spill could require thousands of trained shoreline cleanup personnel if conditions were "high -consequence". Hundreds could be needed in a smaller spill under more favorable conditions. There is a maximum of 684 shoreline response personnel available in all of Washington. • It is estimated that a major oil spill could oil up to 6,000 birds. Washington currently has the capacity to rehabilitate 100 birds, a few pinnipeds such as harbor seals, and up to 25 sea otters. hi short, we are woefully unprepared to deal with a major oil spill on our own. To that end, the best defense is a strong offense, so the Oil Spill Advisory Council advocated for a permanent response tug -boat to be permanently stationed at Neah Bay to assist vessels that are in trouble. A temporary tug -boat was stationed there in 2004. Vs. 5 336 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) In 2007, the Port of Port Townsend received funding for an Oil Spill Response Trailer, which is now stationed at the Boat Haven boatyard in Port Townsend. The trailer contains absorbent material and booms for control and recovery of marine oil spills. Local fire and Port of Port Townsend security personnel are trained to use the equipment. The county Local Emergency Planning Committee (LEPC) was established under the provisions of the State and Federal law (The Community Emergency Planning and Community Right -to- Know Act-- EPCRA). The purpose of the LEPC is to coordinate the development of emergency plans and procedures for dealing with a hazardous materials incident. The committee's charter is to conduct hazard identification, vulnerability analysis, and risk management activities. Additionally, they are chartered to develop and maintain emergency response plans appropriate to hazardous materials based on the volumes and types of substances found in, or transported through their jurisdictions.' The Pacific Oil Spill Prevention Education Team, POSPET, evolved from the simple premise that small oil spills can add up to cause significant environmental and economic harm, and are a regional problem that can be remedied more effectively through collaborative projects drawing from existing talent and resources. For over a decade, POSPET has served as a forum for exchanging information and outreach ideas about prevention of oil spills and other boater best management practices while providing boat and marina operators with a consistent and accurate pollution prevention messages. POSPET members include representatives from state and federal agencies, industry associations, and nonprofit groups from Alaska, British Columbia, Washington, Oregon, California, and nationwide.10 Hazard Assessment and Vulnerability Analysis Key findings of the Washington Oil Spill Advisory Council (February 2009) indicated that the Jefferson County coastline (along with other county's coastlines) remains vulnerable to large-scale oil spills. These oil spills, which could result from shipping accidents or other maritime incidents could result in greater than 50,000 barrels of spilled materials. Available resources for collection and recovery could meet only a fraction of the needs at this level. Available on -water recovery systems could handle anywhere from 9,500 to 19,500 barrels in the first 48 hours. Dispersants could treat between 1,400 and 8,000 barrels of a 50,000 -barrel release. Hundreds of trained shoreline cleanup personnel would be required to clean up the release. Historical data from the Arco Anchorage in Port Angeles Harbor, the Tenyo Maru which spilled oil along the entire Washington State shoreline with heavy concentration along the Makah Indian Reservation and Olympic National Park, and the Nestucca spilling oil from Grays Harbor north to the Olympic National Park shoreline provide important models for oil spill analysis. The 2001 International Oil Spill Conference received a report entitled "Assessing Environmental Impacts from a Puget Sound Spill" by Cindy Chen and Robert Neumann which utilized these historical spills as models". The study notes that all spills are different, and the same quantity of soil spilled in two different locations, or under different environmental conditions, can have significantly different impacts. The report identifies several variables which could affect the severity of the impact to the environment: • Spill location • Spill quantity and oil type • Time of spill (Natural resources of birds and salmon have the highest vulnerability in the spring of the year) • Weather and currents Vs. 5 337 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) In 2007, the Port of Port Townsend received funding for an Oil Spill Response Trailer which is currently stationed at the Boat Haven in Port Townsend. The trailer contains absorbent materials and booms for control and recovery of marine oil spills. Local fire and Port of Port Townsend personnel are trained to use the equipment. Annual exercises with the Port Townsend Paper Corporation address procedures and processes involved with major pollutants. These exercises involve joint coordination and cooperation between local emergency management officials, Port Townsend Paper Corporation, United States Coast Guard, recovery assets, and the Washington State Department of Ecology. Conclusion For major marine oil and hazardous material spills, the Northwest Area Contingency Plan (ACP) will be used for all responses. It combines the resources of the local, State, and Federal governments. Two Geographic Response Plans (GR -Ps) cover the shorelines of Jefferson County, specifically the Washington Outer Coast and Hood Canal/Admiralty Inlet. They include resource priorities, protection and clean-up strategies, and local logistical information. Legislative creation of the Oil Spill Advisory Council in 2004 led to advocacy for a permanent tug boat to be stationed at Neah Bay to assist vessels in trouble, particularly those laden with petroleum cargos. As of 2008, it was estimated that a contracted tug boat at Neah Bay had prevented 34 major incidents. 12 In 2009, congress approved funding for a permanent tug boat at Neah Bay. Also, in 2009, the governor of Washington proposed eliminating the Oil Spill Advisory Council as part of an effort to balance the state budget. Due to inadequate oil spill response capabilities throughout the state, the Jefferson County coastline and Port Townsend Bay remain vulnerable to large scale oil spills. Despite studies, exercises and planning, it is estimated that a major oil spill would be disastrous to the Jefferson County shoreline and to the economic viability of the entire area. Experiences in the Gulf of Mexico during 2010 pointed out the complexities and frustrations of rapid cleanup procedures required to prevent permanent damage to Jefferson County and adjacent counties. The likelihood of Jefferson County experiencing a major oil spill is significant. The ability to quickly respond to ensure collection, recovery and cleanup is critical. At this point, major outside resources will be required to affect a swift and thorough cleanup and recovery from a major oil pollution event.

These areas are vulnerable to shipping and boating accidents, as well as those involving ferries. Ferry accidents could result in a mass casualty incident that may be difficult to address, though the United States Coast Guard has the primary responsibility for safety and rescue on the open waterways. Major emergencies associated with freight vessels though, are more likely to result from collisions with other vessels or mechanical failures during severe weather. Impacts and Effects: • Possible loss of life • Possible injuries to vessel occupants and to first responders • Possible mass casualty incident • Loss of vessel and/or cargo • Loss of property of vessel passengers • Threat to endangered species of both aquatic and airborne species from chemical or fuel spills resulting from the accident • Possible contamination of commercial fishing grounds or shellfish farms • Possible significant economic damage in limited sectors of the Jefferson County economy Previous Occurrences: In 2005, an escort tug veered in front of a single -hull oil tanker loaded with two million gallons of light fuel oil. The tug boat was rolled over multiple times by the collision, but no one was seriously hurt and no fuel was spilled.2 In 2007, the Director of Washington's State Ferry System pulled the two ferries on the Port Townsend — Keystone run out of service on an emergency basis just before Thanksgiving week -end because the 80 -year old vessels were considered to be too risky to run.' Probability of Future Events: Moderate — Puget Sound and the Admiralty Inlet are some of the highest trafficked sea lanes in the United States. The Port Townsend Bay has traffic from the ferry system, submarines, navy and coast guard warships, commercial fishing vessels, occasional cruise ships, and many pleasure craft. At times, the rough seas can threaten the ferries or small vessels. Definition A maritime accident, for the purposes of the HIVA, would be one in which a vessel of significant size had an accident causing the loss of life and property to the extent that it required the activation of elements of the Jefferson County Department of Emergency Management to help respond. "Marine disasters can be roughly divided into the following four groups: collisions, weather-related events, fires, and infectious diseases. At sea communities are very small and resources are minimal compared to shore -side catastrophes so not much is required to turn a shipboard emergency into a disaster".' Vs. 5 341 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Jefferson County is bordered by the Pacific Ocean, Puget Sound, and the Admiralty Inlet as well as having smaller bodies of water such as Discovery Bay, Port Townsend Bay, and the Hood Canal. These areas are vulnerable to shipping and boating accidents, as well as those involving ferries. Ferry accidents could result in a mass casualty incident that may be difficult to address, though the United States Coast Guard has the primary responsibility for safety and rescue on the open waterways. Major emergencies associated with freight vessels though, are more likely to result from collisions with other vessels or mechanical failures during severe weather. History of Maritime Accidents in Jefferson County Jefferson County was once a major west coast seaport, and as such, has a rich history of maritime accidents. During the period from 1853 through 2002, there have been at least 27 major maritime accidents in the area from Protection Island through the Admiralty Inlet and down to Port Ludlow.5 This included the steamship Clallam, which broke down in a storm, resulting in the deaths of 56 people who were in lifeboats that were launched into a riptide. Many Washington maritime incidents occur along the Pacific Coast too. In adjacent Clallam County, for example, there have been at least 33 significant maritime accidents around Tatoosh Island off Cape Flaherty. Figure ME -1: Unknown vessel aground near Tatoosh Island. Hazard Assessment and Vulnerability Assessment Jefferson County waters and adjacent international sea lanes are traversed by freighters, oil tankers, cruise ships, submarines, warships, pleasure craft, and the occasional whale. Rough water in Port Townsend Bay often causes the cancelation of ferry runs. Figure ME -2 below illustrates why. Vs. 5 342 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) In■gm ■■- pin Figure ME -2: A Washington State Ferry experiences rough water in the Puget Sound. The Puget Sound area is one of the busiest seaways in the nation with some many unique features:' • It is 3500 square miles; larger than San Diego, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Boston, Miami, and New York combined. • It has an international border with Canada. • Over 5,000 deep draft ships transit each year. • It contains the home ports for the Alaskan Fishing Fleet. • It contains the Washington State Ferry System, largest in the nation with 500+ transits daily and over 20,000 passengers daily. • 15 Billion Gallons of Oil are moved annually. • 3rd Largest US Navy Strategic Port in the U.S. • Recreational Boat Population of 1.3 million. Given the volume of traffic and the mix of vessels, it is a wonder that there aren't more maritime accidents than there have been. The Seattle Gateway Sector as control over Puget Sound vessel traffic in much the same way that air traffic controllers control the skies. The Northwest Maritime Center in Port Townsend is adding an "Alternate Gateway Emergency Operations Center" to its new building in Port Townsend to provide backup control if the primary center in Seattle goes down. A rescue tug boat has been stationed at Neah Bay to provide assistance to vessels in trouble at the entrance to Puget Sound and its vicinity. Several Jefferson County law enforcement and fire agencies have a limited water rescue and fire -boat capability. These programs are hampered by funding issues, so the equipment is old and their capabilities limited by size. Since the agency boats are not manned full-time, response times are contingent upon whether trained crews happen to be on duty with their respective agency at the time of a water related emergency. Vs. 5 343 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Conclusion Although the waters around Jefferson County can be difficult, safety standards, the positioning of a safety tug boat at Neah Bay, and aggressive response by the USCG have kept the loss of life and vessels down. Nevertheless, the large volume of commercial and recreational vessels in the Puget Sound suggests that it is inevitable more maritime accidents will occur. Local law and fire agencies train to respond to maritime emergencies, but have limited ability to deal with large maritime disasters. References — MARITIME EMERGENCY 1.

Tens of thousands of tons of high explosives in the form of missiles, torpedoes, warheads, etc. are shipped in and out of the depot every year by ship and by truck. There is a possibility of an accident or incident detonating high explosives near a populated area. Impacts and Effects: • Loss of life and injuries as a direct result of an explosion • Fatalities and injuries as an indirect result of an explosion, e.g. from flying glass • Destruction of property in the explosion radius • Economic impact due to destruction of businesses within the blast radius • Psychological trauma to survivors and residents • Depending on the type of event, there may be hazardous residues that contaminate the area for long periods • Economic impacts due to the loss of property values because of the perceived threat of living near NAVMAG Indian Island • First responders, population and workers at risk until abatement is effective • Explosions resulting in destruction and fires • Permanent loss of fishing, clam beds, and oyster beds from chemical spills • Loss of recreation sites and tourism • Potential contamination of water supplies • Business closures Previous Occurrences: In 2008, a fully loaded semi -truck carrying 155mm munitions out of the base lost its brakes on a hill leading to the main gate of the navy base. A quick -thinking sentry raised the security bollards, which stopped the truck from entering onto the state highway fronting the base. There were no detonators with the munitions, so the threat of explosion was relatively low in this case. Probability of Future Events: Low — NAVMAG Indian Island has a superb track record for safety. The 2008 incident caused the revision of protocols to prevent a recurrence. There have been no significant problems as of December, 2016. Definition FEMA defines hazardous materials in a broad sense to include: - Explosive, flammable, combustible, corrosive, oxidizing, toxic, infectious, or radioactive materials - that, when involved in an accident and released in sufficient quantities, - put some portion of the general public in immediate danger from exposure, contact, inhalation, or ingestion. Vs. 5 345 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) The production, use, storage, transportation and disposal of hazardous material substances and wastes, places the public and the environment at significant risk. A release may occur by spilling, leaking, emitting toxic vapors, or any other process that enables the materials to escape its container, enter the environment, and create a potential hazard. The nature and extent of this risk is difficult to determine as the process involved in hazardous materials and toxic waste management are dynamic. Many federal laws and regulations exist to manage the manufacture, utilization, and disposal of hazardous materials. An ordnance incident is the deliberate or accidental detonation of military ordnance, warheads, missiles, torpedoes, fuels, or any military related device or substance intended for the delivering high explosives or causing destructive explosions. The largest munitions depot on the west coast, Naval Magazine Indian Island, is located within the boundary of Jefferson County. Tens of thousands of tons of high explosives in the form of missiles, torpedoes, warheads, etc. are shipped in and out of the depot every year by ship and by truck. There is a possibility of an accident or incident detonating high explosives near a populated area. History of Military Ordnance Incidents in Jefferson County There have been no accidental detonations of military ordnance in Jefferson County. February 15, 20083 — A shipping truck exiting NAVMAG Indian Island crashed into security bollards raised by the guards when the vehicle lost its brakes. The crash on February 15, 2008 happened just after 7 p.m. when a shipping truck transporting ordnance to the base crashed into one of the hydraulic security walls just inside the main gate. Navy investigators determined that the 2003 Volvo truck and trailer, carrying 360 rounds of 155mm M107 projectiles, experienced a brake malfunction as it entered the base, causing it to crash into the movable wall used as a security measure. According to an accident report from the Navy, no ordnance was damaged in the crash and no individuals were injured. After the incident, a safety perimeter of 1,700 feet was set up, stopping traffic on state Highway 116 for more than an hour. The area remained closed until a Navy explosive ordnance disposal team arrived to inspect the truck and ordnance. The team later determined it was safe to reopen the road. The ordnance was offloaded and a tow truck was called to dislodge the truck from the barrier. Hazard Assessment and Vulnerability Assessment Indian Island has its own security and fire department to handle incidents within the base. Vulnerabilities of the base to severe windstorms, and the potential of hazardous material accidents that could impact the communities around the bay necessitate inter -governmental cooperation at all levels. Depending on its nature, a catastrophic explosion could scatter radiologic debris. Vs. 5 346 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Additionally, the trans -shipment of hundreds of thousands of tons of munitions, including spent Uranium projectiles, through the area periodically creates opportunities for protest groups.' Loaded munitions ships leaving the base sometimes sail within a few hundred yards of downtown Port Townsend because of tidal conditions. During the Persian Gulf operations known as "Desert Storm" and during Operation Iraqi Freedom, several thousand tons of explosive passed through eastern Jefferson County between the Hood Canal Bridge and Naval Magazine Indian Island. The type of cargo that is loaded/offloaded at NAVMAG Indian Island is primarily ammunition (e.g., bombs, bullets and missiles). Contract trucks and trailers made several trips each day moving materials between Indian Island and Naval installations in Kitsap County. U.S. Pacific Fleet ordnance material flows from producers and procurement sites through Naval Magazine Indian Island to the Pacific Fleet. Areas at risk for ordnance materials transportation incidents lie along highways, pipelines, rivers, and seaport areas. These risks are compounded by natural hazards (e.g. earthquakes, floods, and severe storms). Each incident's impact and resulting response depends on a multitude of interrelated variables that range from the quantity and specific characteristic of the material to the conditions of the release and area/population centers involved. Figure OR -1 shows the route that trucks take from the Hood Canal Bridge to NAVMAG Indian Island. According to the National Counterterrorism Center (NCTC), a semi -truck fully loaded with high explosives needs an evacuation radius of 7000 feet.' Depending on where an ordnance truck had an accident, the evacuation radius could include the County EOC, 9-1-1 facilities, sheriffs office and jail complex, two propane storage facilities, gasoline stations, two schools and a library. It is also possible to have an accident in which the evacuation radius would include both the NAVMAG EOC and the County EOC, thus necessitating transferring EOC operations to the Alternate EOC at the City of Port Townsend nine miles away. Conclusion Jefferson County has convened its leaders to examine and more thoroughly understand existing emergency response processes, communication plans and methodologies. NAVMAG Indian Island conducts periodic Educational outreach presentations for the public. "We really wanted to reach those parts of the community who don't get a chance to get involved in what's happening in their area," said Melissa Kilgore, administrative assistant for human resources, financing and budgeting for NAVMAG Indian Island."' Citizens, both public and private, must be prepared with evacuation or shelter -in-place plans for all hazards including ordnance incidents. Agencies should have critical incident plans outlining roles for school administrators, law enforcement, fire departments, and medical care providers. Agencies should coordinate their plans with each other to ensure that redundancies are addressed and to further the understanding and opportunities for cooperation by all potentially affected agencies. A number of critical agencies are vulnerable to be being affected by an ordnance truck accident and should have procedures and exercises predicated on having to move operations to the Alternate EOC.

They can develop quickly due to storms or an earthquake, or they may develop slowly such as when world politics might produce shortages? Only very rarely do power outages escalate to disaster proportions, however, they often accompany other types of disasters, such as severe winter storms and floods, which hampers relief efforts. Electromagnetic pulses and voltage spikes from high altitude nuclear blasts (HEMP), deliberate satellite attacks, or natural Carrington events can also damage electricity infrastructure and electrical devices.' Cyber -attacks can bring down the power grid by interfering with control systems. Impacts and Effects: • Imperilment of life due to the inability to provide life-support services, e.g. an oxygen concentrator at home • Imperilment of life due to the inability to produce heat or cooling during adverse weather periods • Loss of communications • Disruption of critical services • Endangerment of property due to catastrophic failure of systems dependent on power • Extreme hardship for elderly and special needs population • Loss of refrigeration and losses from spoilage • Loss of water resulting from inability to run electric pumps • Potential failure of waste removal systems • Disrupted fuel supplies • Loss of business and revenue • Banking systems are disabled • Shortage of food supplies as stores close • Communication systems disrupted as battery backups are depleted • Higher costs for electricity • Higher costs for petroleum products • Alarm systems disabled, potential for criminal acts increased • Law enforcement and emergency response teams challenged with increased traffic accidents with non -working traffic lights • Limited patient care as emergency generators become overtaxed Previous Occurrences: There have been a few "major" occurrences in Jefferson County, but none that could be considered catastrophic in that they were localized and individual emergencies were manageable with local and regional resources: After the Columbus Day storm in 1962, there were areas in Washington that were without power for two to three weeks. • During the summer of 1996, problems with line loading caused major regional power outages along the west coast. Storms have also caused power outages ranging from hours to 34 days in areas of Vs. 5 351 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Jefferson County. Electrical power shortages also occurred during 1973-74 and in 1977 -due to drought conditions. • Following the "Super Bowl Storm" in 2006, Port Ludlow was without power for three days when major transmission lines were damaged in the high winds of accompanying that storm. • The last significant occurrence in Jefferson County was on December 31, 2008, when severe winds broke a Bonneville Power Feeder line cutting off power to 2/3 of the Jefferson County population. Power was restored within hours through a work -around, but the line itself was not fully repaired for many days. Probability of Future Events: High — Severe winter storms combined with above -ground power lines in forested areas makes power outages a regular recurring event. Whether any given outage becomes an extended outage is a function of the severity of the problem, its physical location, and the environmental conditions during the event. Definition: A power outage is an interruption of normal sources of electrical power. Short-term power outages (up to a few hours) are common and have minor adverse effect, since most businesses and health facilities are prepared to deal with them. Extended power outages, however, can disrupt personal and business activities as well as medical and rescue services, leading to business losses and medical emergencies. Extended loss of power can lead to civil disorder, as in the New York City blackout of 1977. Only very rarely do power outages escalate to disaster proportions, however, they often accompany other types of disasters, such as hurricanes and floods, which hampers relief efforts.4 Although there are no statutory definitions of an extended power outage, the Washington Administrative Code (WAC) 246-293-660 sets the minimum standards for water system reliability by defining a power outage as a minimum of 30 minutes.' It indirectly sets the outage standard for power utilities as averaging less than four hours per outage, with three outages or less per year over a three-year period. Not more than one outage per three-year period can exceed eight hours. From this we can infer that an extended power outage is anything over eight hours long. Other jurisdictions define an extended power outage as one which puts "the comfort and safety" of its citizens at risk. "Comfort and Safety" means an ambient temperature that minimizes residents' susceptibility to loss of body heat and risk of hypothermia or susceptibility to respiratory ailments and colds. Hazard Assessment and Vulnerability Assessment Puget Sound Energy (PSE), the power provider up until 2010 had a history of major power outages, typically caused by large storm events. Power outages have lasted as long as 9 —10 days in some areas of the county. During storms accompanied by cold winter temperatures, power outages have been problematic and dangerous for special needs populations and the elderly. The Jefferson County Public Utility District Nbr. 1 (JPUD), the current power provider for East Jefferson County, purchased the power assets from PSE in 2010. It is attempting to mitigate the potential for extended power outages by creating more of a presence in Jefferson County to work with consumers, and establishing closer relations with the Jefferson County Department of Emergency Management to improve communications during power outage events. JPUD purchased the power related assets from Puget Sound Energy in on April 1, 2013, and took over the power distribution responsibility from them. Its strategy was Vs. 5 352 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) to keep the power distribution at a local level rather than with a non -local provider, but the production assets are still from the outside, primarily the Bonneville Power Authority. Loss of a major distribution system due to damage or an act of terrorism on the grid could cause power outages for several hours to several days. Loss of refrigeration and water sources that require electrical pumps could present major health issues. Loss of electricity to power gas stations could affect the fuel supply. With power outages, retail food outlets would be closed, alarm systems could be disconnected, and eventually emergency communication systems and cell phones would be affected after the battery life of backup systems was expended. Back-up generators would be at risk for breakdown following extensive utilization. Long-term power outages due to drought or failure at a hydroelectric generation station could present problems. The power distribution systems that currently exist are designed to help prevent major power outages for long periods of time. Washington State is connected to a regional transmission grid that has major connections with other grids out -of -region, including British Columbia, Montana, California, and other southwest states. In general, if Washington is short of electricity due to drought and low water levels in reservoirs powering hydroelectric generating plants, electricity can be purchased elsewhere. The result is higher cost electricity, rather than inadequate supply. Utility companies build on an "N -I capacity". This means the utility is prepared for one of each kind of line to go down without a disruption in service. If two of the same type of lines goes down, some may lose power. In the 1996 event, Portland was forced to take everything off line to avoid melting of transmission lines from the overload of power. Even with the grid system, however, voluntary curtailment and conservation must be practiced. The Washington State Curtailment Plan for Electric Energy (WAC 194-22) describes a 5 stage plan for power curtailment with each level representing a more severe shortage that require sterner steps. Most of the out -of -region power is thermal; it is not affected by drought. In fact, a shortage of electricity over the long term is not a major concern in Western Washington since a substantial amount of electricity is transmitted from Canada to California via Washington and Oregon, therefore providing easy access to external power supplies. Hot weather and increased use often associated with droughts can be a concern for electric utilities, however. Increased loads cause electric lines to heat up; when lines get too hot, they sag. Sagging lines into trees and other vegetation is a major concern and therefore loads must be monitored to control sagging. Jefferson County is vulnerable to localized, short-term energy emergencies brought about by accidents, terrorism or storms. Most of these energy emergencies can be handled by the utility companies. The effects of energy shortages could include inconvenience to consumers, reduced heating and lighting capability, reduced production in all sectors, potential failure of transportation, water and waste, communication, information, and banking systems. Secondary hazards associated with these events could include traffic accidents as traffic lights are out, limited patient care at the hospital due to power capabilities of backup generators, injuries due to downed power lines, and closure of retail operations including food stores, gas stations, restaurants, and other stores. Energy emergencies can seriously hamper emergency response capabilities and should be planned for. Vs. 5 353 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) 09/02/2015 Fire in Mason County Cuts Electric Service to Over 2000 Jefferson County Customers. Submitted photo to the Port Townsend Leader Terrorism and the Grid: There are three levels of terrorism to deal with when discussing the grid: physical, cyber, and pulse. A particular attack may involve one or more of these types of attack. Physical Terrorism: On April 13, 2013, unknown individuals attacked the Pacific Power & Light Metcalf Transmission Substation near San Jose, California. These saboteurs lifted a heavy vault lid to a vault carrying AT&T fiber optic cables. Within 30 minutes of cutting the cables and knocking out communications, they attacked the transmission substation and knocked out 17 transformers in 19 minutes by firing AK47 assault weapons from outside the locked perimeter. They left the scene one minute before police units arrived. The Metcalf Substation provides power to Silicon Valley.' Power was rerouted from other areas and producers to keep Silicon Valley going, but it took 27 days to get the substation back in operation. Jefferson County PUD substations have the same kind of vulnerability to physical attack. Cyber -terrorism: In 2008, the U.S. and Israel cyberattacked the Iranian Nuclear program using the Stuxnet virus. Shortly thereafter, Iran retaliated with a cyberattack against the Aramco Oil company in Saudi Arabia, destroying 30,000 of its computers. The attack on the Iranian program was accomplished by introducing the "worm" into the SCADA system causing the uranium purification centrifuges to tear themselves apart. That SCADA system was manufactured by Siemens as is most of the SCADA systems used by the power industry in the United States.' Pulse Attack: High Altitude Electromagnetic Pulses (HEMP) can be used to damage the grid over a wide- scale area.' A HEMP attack would most easily be from a high-altitude nuclear detonation, but could also be from a non-nuclear device or a satellite. A detonation at 400 km high can send a pulse that covers the entire continental United States. Damage to electrical equipment would be highly variable and depend on physical location, whether equipment was powered on, etc. The ability of the United States power grid to withstand such an attack would depend on whether equipment was on, the topography of the location (mountain shadow), and a myriad of unknowable things occurring at the time. See "Carrington Event" below for what the levels of electromagnetic pulses can do. Vs. 5 354 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Carrington Event: Not to be outdone by mere terrorists, our sun can produce a "pulse attack" that can take out the entire world. A "Carrington Event" is a Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) from the sun that results in a solar geomagnetic storm that can easily take out electric grids and electronics. Such an event is named after amateur astronomer Richard Carrington, who observed the phenomena on September 1, 1859, the largest such geomagnetic storm ever recorded. Even back then, telegraph equipment caught fire, the auroras turned night into day, and some telegraphers were shocked. Ice core samples have determined that the 1859 event was the largest in the last 500 years.9 NOAA has developed a "Space Weather Scale" to rate geomagnetic storms along with other types of phenomena. Figure PO -1, below, presents the Geomagnetic Storm portion to illustrate the kinds of damage that an EMP pulse can do:'o "A G3 - Strong geomagnetic storm conditions were observed beginning 05:59 UTC on May 8, 2016. Power system voltage irregularities are possible, false alarms may be triggered on some protection devices. Spacecraft systems may experience surface charging; increased drag on low Earth -orbit satellites and orientation problems may occur. Intermittent satellite navigation (GPS) problems, including loss -of - lock and increased range error may occur. Radio - HF (high frequency) radio may be intermittent. Aurora may be seen as low as Pennsylvania to Iowa to Oregon."" On January 22, 2017, USA Today reported the NASA Space Weather Station observed a massive coronal hole transiting the sun.12 The following link contains the video of that transit: http://www.msn.com/en-us/video/wonder/watch-massive-coronal-hole-rotate-across-suns-surface/vi- BBy4Vry?ocid=spartandhp Vs. 5 355 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) The Impact of Long Term Power Outage The most immediate impact of extended power outages is the potential for loss of life due to medical devices at home failing, or temperatures reaching hot or cold extremes because of the loss of heating/cooling capabilities resulting in vulnerable people being placed at risk. As time progresses without the restoration of power, families began to incur economic damage from the loss of food stores in their refrigerators and freezers, or from having to travel to and pay for commercial shelter such as a hotel. Retail establishments experience loss of business due to their operations not being able to function during the outage. Those businesses with back-up power incur extraordinary costs in producing their own power until the extended outage is over. Particularly long outages can impact water supply and create other issues as emergency power capabilities break down from extended use, thus requiring extraordinary efforts to maintain normalcy. Outages lasting into the months can result in the breakdown of civilization locally and migration to areas of support. All of the above effects result in economic and revenue losses for county residents, and the state. Climate Change Washington State relies on hydropower for nearly three quarters of its power and sales to households use 54% of that.13 Climate warming will have a negative impact on both supply and demand of electricity throughout Washington. The biggest factors determining the effects on electricity are annual temperature changes and the change in peak snowpack melt and stream flow.14 The Northwest Power and Conservation Council predicts a 300 megawatt (about 1% of Washington's generating capacity) reduction in demand for each degree the temperature rises.15 Increased stream flows from early snowpack melt could result in higher power supply in the spring when demand is down due to warming conditions, and lower power supply in the summer when demand is highest due to more hot days and the demand for air conditioning. Higher demand for lower power supply can lead to brown -outs, black -outs, rate increases, and the cost of living and doing business in Washington going up. Table PO -1 provides NOPRCD's projection for temperature increases in the Olympic Peninsula due to global warming.16 Vs. 5 356 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Table PO -1 — Temperature: Trends and Extremes16 Ternperatures Observed Changes Future Projections Averages Warmed 1.3°F By 205D's—increases of 4.3'F (lowererrissions), (for Pacific Northwest) (1895-2ol l) to 5.8°F (higher emissions) Extremes Increase in nighttime Slight increase in days over 90"F (S +7 days) far heat events. ?NW with limited increase in days over 95°F on the Olympic Peni nsu la. Frost -free season increases + 35 days across Pacific Northwest. Source — NOPRCD Report Global warming notwithstanding, the Northwest Power and Conservation Council issued a warning that the loss -of -load probability will approach 10% in 2021 due to the retirement of several coal plants. In this scenario, the region will need over 1,000 megawatts of new capacity to maintain adequacy." If there is any significant increase in in summer heat waves or severe winter storms, there will be an increase in demand for power to run air conditioners or heaters, just when the region is losing it. Conclusion Because of its location, Jefferson County is at risk for severe wind and winter storms that are capable of causing extended power outages. Not all critical facilities have back-up power, while others have diesel or gasoline back-up generators that can eventually run out of fuel. If the event causing the power outage has also damaged arterial highways, fuel resupply may not be available, thus causing secondary power outages two to three days after the initial outage as back-up generators fail. Several fire stations have back-up generators that run off of 1000 -gallon propane tanks, and can last for weeks during winter weather. Power outages caused by a wide -scale event such as an earthquake would severely hamper relief efforts and exacerbate the enormity of the event. The Jefferson County Public Utility District Nbr. 1 (JPUD), the power provider for East Jefferson County, is attempting to mitigate the potential for extended power outages by creating more of a presence in Jefferson County to work with consumers, and establishing closer relations with the Jefferson County Department of Emergency Management to improve communications during power outage events. JPUD purchased the power related assets from Puget Sound Energy in 2010, and took over the power distribution responsibility from them.

Impacts and Effects: • Loss of life • Loss of property • Damage and potential destruction of government buildings • Disruption of ferries, bridges, and seaports • Destruction of historical sites • Damage to law, fire, emergency medical services and responder facilities • Disruption of financial institutions and banking • Contamination of food and water supplies • Death or illness from bioterrorism, chemical attacks, or nuclear detonation • Overtaxed emergency response system • Overtaxed healthcare provider system • Long term clean-up of environmental damage • Disruption of telecommunication systems and transportation systems from cyber terrorism • Mass influx of refugees from highly populated areas • Instillation of fear and paranoia throughout the population Previous Occurrences: Although no overt act of terrorism has been detected in Jefferson County, the Sheriffs Department has received reports of people observing operations at the Naval Magazine Indian Island. In one incident of such suspicious behavior in 2007, a citizen was able to obtain a license plate number that was subsequently traced to a stolen vehicle. The suspect was not apprehended. From time -to -time, there are reports of suspicious people or suspicious packages being left on the Washington State ferries. So far, these have not resulted in more than an inconvenience on the Port Townsend ferries as authorities take the time to check out the persons or packages. Probability of Future Events: Medium — Even though Port Townsend and Jefferson County seem like low priority targets, the FBI has reported threats against ferry systems, and it is known that NAVMAG Indian Island has periodically been under observation by persons not wanting to be identified. It is impossible to provide a precise probability of future events of this type but the general consensus is anywhere from 1 to 10 years. The most likely tactics to be used are Active Shooter(s), Bombings (any variety), and Cyber Attacks. The least likely tactics to be used are Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear (CBRN) Bombing/Attack and Hijacking/Skyjacking. Most likely targets are assessed to be Government Facilities, Commercial Facilities (Public Assembly, Retails, Entertainment and Media, etc), Transportation, and Military and Law Enforcement.2 Vs. 5 361 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) DEFINITION: The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) defines terrorism as "the unlawful use of force or violence against persons or property to intimidate or coerce a government, the civilian population, or any segment thereof, in furtherance of political or social objective". The definition continues to specify terrorism as either domestic or international, based upon the origin, base, and objectives of the terrorist organization.' This has now been expanded to include Cyberterrorism: "Cyberterrorism is the convergence of cyberspace and terrorism. It refers to unlawful attacks and threats of attack against computers, networks, and the information stored therein when done to intimidate or coerce a government or its people in furtherance of political or social objectives. [A cyberterrorism] attack should result in violence against persons or property, or at least cause enough harm to generate fear. Virtually initiated attacks which lead to the death or bodily injury, explosions, or severe economic loss can also be included in cyberterrorism-related activities. Attacks against elements of a government's critical infrastructure could also be classified as acts of cyber -terrorism depending on the impact of such an event."' HISTORY OF TERRORISM IN JEFFERSON COUNTY Jefferson County residents, businesses, schools and government have received numerous threatening phone calls over the years regarding bomb threats. Although many reports of pending explosions are received, most are malicious mischief. A few mailboxes have been blown up, and a few cases of arson have occurred. Arson commissions have been for personal gain, some for revenge, and some for a "thrill". These occurrences have not met the definition of terrorism especially when compared to events such as those that occurred in New York City and Washington DC on September 11, 2001. Although no overt act of terrorism has been detected in Jefferson County, the Sheriffs Department has received reports of suspicious persons observing operations at the Naval Magazine Indian Island. In one such incident in 2007, a citizen was able to obtain a license plate number that was subsequently traced to a stolen vehicle. The suspect was not apprehended. In 2013, there was a rumor of terrorism, when a Port Townsend School District (PTSD) employee discovered a pipe bomb while doing maintenance. The Port Townsend Police Department and other organizations based at Mountain View were evacuated and streets in the area closed after the PTSD employee brought the suspected pipe bomb to the police department. The device had apparently been brought to Blue Heron Middle School in the 1990s by a student and given to a science teacher. The school district employee located the object while performing maintenance at the school. The pipe object was then brought to the police station to turn over. It was at that time that the Mountain View campus and surrounding area was secured due to safety concerns. The State Patrol bomb squad was summoned and detonated the device. HAZARD IDENTIFICATION AND VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT On September 11, 2001, the entire nation was initiated into the world of international terrorism. Acts resulting in tremendous violence introduced the country to groups such as Al Qaeda. The nation watched with horror from their living rooms the frantic searches and recovery operations at the World Trade Center, the Pentagon, and in an obscure field in Pennsylvania. Fear, disbelief, and immediate counter -terrorism reactions were instituted. These acts accomplished exactly what terrorism is designed to do. The new threat is from the radical terrorist group, Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS), which is very adept at using the internet to recruit terrorists -in-place throughout the world. Terrorists cells are able to evolve and communicate without detection. Since Port Townsend and Jefferson County have both anti -war groups and a significant military installation that supplies munitions used in the Mid -East, it is easy to postulate Vs. 5 362 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) the radicalization of an individual in the area and an attempt to damage or destroy a warship or the Indian Island Naval Magazine. Terrorists hope to instill fear and panic in civilian populations by convincing them that their governments cannot: • Protect its own population • Protect the symbols of its authority • Protect society's institutions • Protect society's infrastructure • Protect its own officials • End the threat of more terrorism, and as a result, • Cannot maintain normal, peaceful conditions in society. Washington State is vulnerable to terrorist activity. Terrorism can be state sponsored or the outgrowth of a frustrated, extremist fringe of polarized and/or minority groups. Extremists have a different concept of morality than mainstream society, thereby making predictions on what and where they will perform other acts of violence very unpredictable. Terrorist groups may include extremists in: • Ethnic, separatists, and political refugees • Left wing radical organizations • Right wing racists, anti -authority survivalist groups • Extremist issue -oriented groups such as religious, animal rights, environmental, etc. Jefferson County has no immunity to potential terrorist activity. Terrorist groups at play today are constantly emerging. Aside from the notorious Al Qaeda groups, there are other potential "copy groups" who would not hesitate to utilize chemical and biological materials. Terrorists perform acts of violence or spread anthrax through the mail system, or release bio -toxins into the food supply want notoriety, want to spread the maximum amount of fear through the population, and want to create an event that will receive national/international attention. As home to important military installations and our close proximity to Seattle's economic, financial, and population centers, Jefferson County's vulnerability to the effects of terrorism is substantial. Communities that are most vulnerable to terrorist incidents have visible and vulnerable targets. These kinds of targets that are found in Jefferson County include: • Government office buildings, courthouses, schools, hospitals • Dams, water supplies, power distribution systems • Military installations • Ferries, bridges, seaports • Theaters, parks, concert halls • Financial institutions and banks • Sites of historical and symbolic significance • Scientific research facilities, academic institutions, museums • Industrial plants; business offices • Law, fire, emergency medical services and responder facilities • Special events, parades, religious services, festivals, celebrations The term "Weapons of Mass Destruction" (WMD) describes weapons that can be classified into the following categories: Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear and Explosive. These categories are often referred to as the acronym CBRNE. Biological and chemical agents pose threats because of their Vs. 5 363 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) accessible nature and the rapid manner in which they could be spread. Most agents can be easily introduced into the environment through aerosol generators, explosive devices, breaking containers, or other forms of covert dissemination. Dispersed as an aerosol, chemical agents have their greatest potential for inflicting mass casualties. Biological agents can be disseminated by the use of aerosols, contaminated food or water supplies, direct skin contact, or injection. The consequences of biological attacks will first be recognized in the hospital emergency rooms and by other health care resources, and will present communities with an unprecedented requirement to provide mass protective treatment, mass patient care, mass fatality management, and environmental health clean-up procedures and plans. Radiological and nuclear weapons would inflict explosions, thermal radiation, and radiation exposure injuries, sickness or death. Cyberterrorism is a relatively new phenomenon that can be used to potentially disrupt society and exploit our continuing reliance on computers and telecommunication. Cyberterrorism threatens the electronic infrastructure supporting the social, health, and economic well-being of all citizens. Interlinked computer networks regulate the flow of power, water, financial services, medical care, telecommunication networks, and transportation systems. If one were able to accurately predict, it would be more likely that a site in Seattle or Tacoma or a nearby military installation would be the direct target rather than one located in the County. The consequences are that Jefferson County could appear (or it could be announced to the Seattle -Metro area) that this area could be a haven for people fleeing from a terrorist situation. County resources would be quickly overloaded, food supplies would quickly be depleted, lodging would be scarce, and management of people (both local and "refugees") could be extremely difficult. County leaders have addressed such scenarios and are becoming cognizant of potential problems and the implications of such an event. hi the same vein, Jefferson County's relative quiet lifestyle offers several areas of seclusion from which covert activities could be planned. The rise of militia groups in other parts of Washington, Oregon, Montana, and Idaho underscores this aspect of the County's demographics. Groups could see the County as a place to organize and wait until circumstances are right in other areas of the country. Alert citizens and law enforcement alike have the responsibility to be aware of citizens' activities and to be mindful of the realities of the world today. CONCLUSION Terrorism is a deliberate strategy. Terrorism is discriminate since it has a definite purpose, but indiscriminate in that the terrorist has neither sympathy nor hate for the randomly selected victim. Although the focus of terrorists is a political authority, their targets and victims tend to involve innocent civilians. Civilians are easier to attack and often produce more dramatic consequences. Changes in the National Homeland Security Advisory System levels are provided as soon as they are available via an Emergency Management phone line accessible by anyone with a telephone. Jefferson County has convened its leaders to examine and more thoroughly understand existing emergency response processes, communication plans and methodologies. Citizens, both public and private, must be continually aware of suspicious activities. Agencies should have critical incident plans outlining roles for school administrators, law enforcement, fire departments, and medical care providers. Agencies should coordinate their plans with each other to ensure that redundancies are addressed and to further the understanding and opportunities for cooperation by all potentially affected agencies.

It can also be chronically in short supply due to the effects of climate warming on municipal water supplies. Impacts and Effects: • Health problems ranging from mild discomfort to extremely ill and/or death • Health care providers overwhelmed by patients • Hospital bed shortages • Emergency Medical Systems challenged by increased calls • Loss of tourism resulting in loss of business revenue • Long term emergency management crisis if water supply is contaminated • Adverse impact on agriculture, especially dry land farms and grazing lands • Increased danger of fires • Serious impacts to recreation areas • Imposition of water conservation measures • Curtailment of industries using large quantities of water causing unemployment • Shortages of water for firefighting • Increased prices for local produce Previous Occurrences: There have been no major historical incidents of food or water contamination in Jefferson County other than occasional "food poisoning" episodes at restaurants or social gatherings.3 Probability of Future Events: Moderate — Climatic changes may be impacting the frequency and duration of drought conditions on the Olympic Peninsula and lead to spot shortages of water. Definition: Water can be in short supply or become contaminated due to either intentional actions or to unintentional consequences of improper handling, system breakdowns, or through the introduction of bacteria from various means. Shortages in this context are extended, but are through non -climatic events, thus droughts are not addressed here, but have their own section. History of Water Shortage/Sewer Failure in Jefferson County There have been no major historical incidents of extended water shortages or water contamination in Jefferson County other than occasional breaks in water lines or the occasional "food poisoning" episodes at restaurants or social gatherings. Wells and water supplies have had short-term periods of contamination following maintenance work on their systems or by accidental contamination of wells due to poor drainage Vs. 5 367 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) systems or other similar events. In each case, the cause of contamination was referred to the proper authorities or was solved by private owners of the water wells involved. • Several local lakes have had periodic contaminations by blooms of a toxic blue-green algae. This has killed or injured small pets, and has resulted in periods in which the lakes have been quarantined. While inconvenient, these lakes are not major contributors to the economy or the drinking water supply, so the occurrences are of concern only to the degree that they threaten county residents and their animals. Port Townsend has a single 36" diameter pipeline from the City reservoir to the city itself, twenty- eight miles away. This has occasionally been broken by landslides in vulnerable areas. These are quickly repaired, and water outages have never been more than a day. The city has a 5 -million gallon reservoir that can supply the city for two to three days during a water line disruption.' • On December 14, 2009, an 80 -year old 12" main broke at 11:00 a.m. The break was repaired by 7:00 p.m., but restaurants were ordered by the Public Health Department to close until the water was tested twice with satisfactory results. The test concluded at 4:00 p.m. on the next day. Hazard Assessment and Vulnerability Assessment At this time in the history of our country, people are primarily dependent on others to provide water, although a significant number of rural households in Jefferson County have their own wells. County and city water supply systems are large and provide the majority of the county with drinking water. While this system encourages efficiency of supply, it is vulnerable to interruption and can also spread disease rapidly. Over the past decade, the vulnerability of the Jefferson County communities' water supplies has been increasing. Primary reasons for the increased risk include: • Increased development in rural areas has put stress on available water sources • Possible climatic changes that reduce the winter snow packs responsible for recharging ground water systems • Aging water delivery infrastructure that is easily disrupted • Parasites, bacteria, and other organisms have become more resistant to pesticides • It can take up to a week for people to show signs of exposure. This makes it difficult to track the source because people tend to forget what and where they ingested. Additionally, more people can contract the illness during the incubation period. • New parasites and bacteria are being identified all the time. • Speculation based on intelligence gathered in the war on counter -terrorism suggests that contaminating the nation's regional water supplies would create a disaster for hundreds of thousands of people The City constructed a new 5 -million -gallon reservoir and drinking water treatment facility, which went into service in 2016. The new facility improves capabilities to meet Federal requirements, and replaces a reservoir that was old and could not withstand a significant earthquake. This increases the available supply of potable water to 3.0 mgd, the planned treatment plant capacity.5 The primary effects of a contaminated food or water supply are illnesses and sometimes even death. If the contamination leads to an epidemic, it could severely tax the health care system in regards to diagnosis, treatment and prevention. A community dependent on tourism, such as Port Townsend, would be affected by loss of productivity. Vs. 5 368 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) During a region -wide event such as a major earthquake, Jefferson County water supplies are extremely vulnerable. For example: • The City of Port Townsend, which has about 1/3 of the county's population, depends on a single 36" diameter pipeline to carry its water supply that is known to cross areas that are subject to landslides. Originally built in 1926, with upgrades in 1956, it has known vulnerabilities that are being addressed within funding limitations. The estimated cost to replace the entire line is approximately $30 million. Figure H20-1, below, shows the system.6 • The Jefferson County Public Utility District No. 1 (PUD) has a 4000 -gallon water tanker trailer to support the region during a water shortage emergency. The PUD tanker is not regularly used, and the tires are worn. James Parker, General Manager of the PUD, says the tires will be replaced by the end of January, 2017. • The PUD provides water to small communities such as Quilcene, and could have an obligation to be in multiple places with one piece of equipment during a major event — assuming that the roads were in such a condition as to allow it. • On September 19, 2016, routine testing identified the possibility of a toxic substance in the City water supply. Subsequent testing showed the water to be safe. In the meantime, the EOC prepared a plan to distribute water to 10,000 residents daily. Water trucks and bladders were deemed not adequate. Estimated costs to deliver bottled water were $30,000 per day in both direct and indirect costs.' • There were three small independent water districts in which neighborhoods in rural areas have banded together to provide water to about a dozen households each. These are isolated and do not have significant back-up power for their pumps. Since 2009, one of these has been taken over by the PUD. Climate Change Warming climates will cause earlier snowmelt resulting in a shift as to when water must be captured in reservoirs to prevent a shortage in the summer. Figure H20-2 illustrates the shift from a "transition" hydrologic basin type to a "rain dominant" basin type in the WRIA that serves Port Townsend and East Jefferson County.' A "transition" basin type is one which depends on both snow and rain to recharge its water supply, as opposed to the "rain dominant" basin type, which is self-evident.

Safe drinking water requires two critical steps: protection and treatment. Pollution prevention needs to be integrated with safe drinking water programs. All Group "A" public water systems in Washington State (greater than 15 connections) are required to collect samples for coliform bacteria analysis per WAC 246-290. Security procedures of water reservoirs must be examined to insure that intentionally introduced contamination is addressed. For instance, the intentional exposure to botulism can easily be done through aerosol droplets falling into the water systems. Health Department and health care providers must be increasingly aware of potential diseases that can be transmitted to the population as a form of terrorism. Vs. 5 371 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Proactive maintenance and upgrade of vulnerable assets must be addressed in both the city and county, particularly in the context of a region -wide disaster event.

Each entity participating in the multi jurisdictional process worked independently utilizing various locally -developed forms to help assess their vulnerability to various natural hazards. This assessment process was made on a subjective basis considering past events and the best available information. In addition, each entity did their best to list mitigation strategies currently in place as well as identify new mitigation strategies and/or projects that would benefit their specific community. The information contained in this section regarding vulnerability and mitigation strategies are specific to each participating jurisdiction, or special purpose district that participated in the development of this plan. In addition, some communities that currently participate in the National Flood Insurance Program Community Rating System (CRS) elected to include jurisdictional -specific CRS -related information in this section of the plan. Potential Dollar Losses Within Jurisdictions Estimates for potential dollar losses of assets are provided within the profiles of each participating jurisdiction. Since all participating jurisdictions are at risk for a magnitude -9 earthquake, we simply asked for the value of capital assets. The value of public assets at risk for the City of Port Townsend, Jefferson County, and the special districts were obtained by getting the summaries of the insured infrastructure for each jurisdiction. The value of private assets within Jefferson County was obtained by getting the current assessor roles. Additionally, the Earthquake hazard write-up in Section II contains an Hazus analysis that predicts loss based on historical probabilities for earthquakes in the region. Since that last magnitude 9+ earthquake occurred in 1700, prior to significant infrastructure being in the area, we place more credence on merely cataloging the value of current assets. We are now within the cyclic period when it is possible for a catastrophic seismic event to recur in Jefferson County. It is recognized that this understates the potential losses because it only focuses on publicly documented assets, and does not include such things as state highways. Vs. 5 401 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) NATURAL HAZARD RATING PROCESS Using a scoring matrix available in the 20/20 Mitigation Software provided to Jefferson County by the Washington State Military Department, Emergency Management Division, each jurisdiction participating in the development of the Jefferson County Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan calculated a risk analysis for the following natural hazards: Avalanche Damaging Winds Drought Earthquake Flood Heat Wave Public Health Emergency Tornado Tsunami / Seiche Volcano Event Wildfire — Urban Interface Winter Storm (Snow) To begin the risk analysis process, each jurisdiction completed the 20/20 scoring matrix using a subjective evaluation based on historical events by assigning numerical values for each natural hazard based upon the following risk categories: • The area(s) impacted by the hazard (ranked 0-4) • Probability of persons injured or killed (ranked 0-3) • Probability of property damaged or destroyed (ranked 0-3) • Probability of environmental damage (ranked 0-3) • Probability of Economic disruption (ranked 0-3) In addition, a Probability or Frequency of Occurrence value was assigned to each natural hazard (ranked I - 5) based upon the known frequency of incidents resulting from each natural hazard. For each natural hazard, the numerical values for each risk category were totaled (with a maximum possible score of 16) and this number was then multiplied by the Probability or "Frequency of Occurrence" value to determine the risk rating for each natural hazard. Using this formula, the maximum numerical risk value that could be assigned to each hazard is 80. Based on this scoring matrix, the maximum numerical risk value that could be assigned to calculate the combined risk rating for all natural hazards considered is 720. The completed 20/20 scoring matrix and risk rating for each participating jurisdiction can be found in their individual portion of SECTION IV of this plan. The NATURAL HAZARD RATING TABLE shown on the following page was compiled based upon the risk analysis calculated by each participating jurisdiction. In addition, the top 3 identified hazards of each jurisdiction were carried over to its Special District profile. The NATURAL HAZARD RATING TABLE provides a useful tool to compare the extent to which each natural hazard affects each community involved in the development of the Plan. It also captures the change in attitude (priorities) among participating jurisdictions towards each hazard.

In addition, mitigation strategies that are currently in place relating to these natural hazards as well as newly proposed mitigation strategies have been included in this section of the plan. To complete the vulnerability assessment process, various city staff utilized a series of locally developed forms as well as forms available in the 20/20 Mitigation Software that were provided to Jefferson County by the Washington State Military Department, Emergency Management Division. As part of the vulnerability assessment process, City of Port Townsend government started an inventory of all critical facilities and is considering these critical facilities in our planning and mitigation strategy development process. Basic information on these facilities is available from public sources, and therefore, it is included in this report. Sensitive information about critical facilities has not been published. Representatives from City of Port Townsend government worked closely with other jurisdictions, agencies, and the Jefferson County Natural Hazards Planning Committee to develop a comprehensive, coordinated mitigation plan intended to reduce the vulnerability to natural hazards within the City of Port Townsend. The information contained in this document presents the results of this effort to identify the specific natural hazards threatening the City of Port Townsend, to characterize the vulnerability of the City of Port Townsend regarding these hazards, and to identify current as well as proposed mitigation strategies, projects and/or programs to address those vulnerabilities. The analyses conducted by Port Townsend staff were based on the best currently available information and data regarding the characteristics of the neighborhoods identified, the natural hazards that threaten the people, property, and environment of these neighborhoods as well as the impacts these neighborhoods have suffered in past disasters. This information includes, when available, United States Census data, local tax records, local and national geographic information system data, Flood Insurance Rate Maps, hazard specific analyses, and other environmental and demographic facts. However, very often authoritative or current information simply was not available for the planning effort. hi these cases, the experience, knowledge and judgment of local officials representing the City of Port Townsend, the judgment of knowledgeable officials and simplified analyses is considered acceptable at this stage to allow the participating organizations to complete the tasks needed to develop this multi jurisdictional natural hazards mitigation plan. As the planning continues in future years, or at the time when a proposed mitigation initiative is intended to be funded and/or implemented, the participating organizations/jurisdictions recognize that additional information and analyses may be required. The City of Port Townsend government is committed to the implementation of the mitigation related projects/programs described in this section of the plan when and if resources become available. City of Port Townsend government is also committed to continuing the mitigation planning process that has resulted in the development of this document, and to the ongoing cooperation with other agencies, organizations, and jurisdictions to make the City more resistant to the damages and hardships that could otherwise be the result of future natural disasters.

Available at: http://bsa.nfipstat.fema.gov/reports/w2rhudrp.htm The City of Port Townsend is a participant in good standing in the NFIP program. NFIP participation has been institutionalized as part of the city's risk management efforts, thus assuring that NFIP requirements are routinely reviewed and that changes to local ordinances, the Shoreline Master Plan, etc. are made consistent with those requirements. Since the city's Comprehensive Use Plan, its Shoreline Master Plan, and others have specific review and update cycles, NFIP-related changes normally occur during a planned review and update unless specific circumstances such as an externally mandated implementation date dictates otherwise. No additional priority has been attached to NFIP participation per se because the process to stay current has been institutionalized. Vs. 5 407 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) The city pays its NFIP insurance premiums as part of the Association of Washington Cities (AWC) risk pool and thus has the additional benefit of having the AWC also monitoring requirements and notifying the city when changes are required. Planning Methodologies To make jurisdiction -wide analysis of the population at risk for each hazard type feasible and practical for mitigation planning purposes, a simplified approach has been used. The estimate of the population at risk for specific hazards is accomplished in the following manner: The population in a specific neighborhood is estimated by local planners, based on readily available data or their best judgment in the absence of suitable data. The population could be residents, workers, visitors, institutionalized individuals, mixed population types, etc., depending on the characteristics of the neighborhood. The percentage of the area of the specific neighborhood threatened by the identified hazard is then estimated by local planners, again based on readily available data or their best judgment. The percent of the neighborhood at risk is then used as a multiplier to determine the estimated number of people at risk from that hazard. The methodology is simplistic but conservative, in that it assumes occupied structures are uniformly distributed throughout the neighborhood in relation to the area of risk, that the population is present in the neighborhood on a 24 hour, 7 -day basis, and that all individuals are equally vulnerable to the impacts of the hazard event. The derived estimates for the number of people at risk may therefore be higher than actually is the case, but the estimates are considered satisfactory to support the local mitigation planning process. To make jurisdiction -wide analysis of the dollar value of properties at risk for each hazard type feasible and practical for mitigation planning purposes, a simplified approach has been used to provide input to the cost benefit analysis. The estimate of the dollar value of properties at risk for specific hazards is accomplished in the following manner: The number of structures in a specific neighborhood and the average dollar value for those structures is estimated by local planners, based on readily available data or their best judgment in the absence of suitable data. The percentage of the specific neighborhood threatened by the identified hazard is then estimated by local planners, again based on readily available data or their best judgment. The percent of the neighborhood at risk is then used as a multiplier to determine the estimated number of structures at risk from that hazard. This number is then multiplied by the estimated average cost of the structures to derive an estimated total value of the property at risk of damage in that neighborhood from the identified hazard. The methodology is simplistic but conservative, in that it assumes structures are uniformly distributed throughout the neighborhood in relation to the area of risk; that the hazard threatens the entire value of each structure; and that structures are equally vulnerable to the impacts of the hazard. The derived estimates for the dollar value of property at risk may therefore be higher than would actually be the case, but the estimates are considered satisfactory to support the local mitigation planning process.

PTMC Chapter 17.50 ESSENTIAL PUBLIC FACILITIES 17.50.010 Purpose. ................................................................................................................................................................................. The purpose of this chapter is to fulfill the requirements of the Growth Management Act by accommodating essential public facilities of statewide or regional significance, including but not limited to airports, state education facilities, state or regional transportation facilities; prisons, jails and other correctional facilities; secure community transition facilities; and solid waste facilities. (Ord. 2879 § 6.4, 2005). PTMC Chapter 19.05 Critical Areas. 19.05.010 Purpose. ................................................................................................................................................................................. The Washington Growth Management Act (GMA) requires that critical areas within the city are to be protected by establishing protection standards for minimizing the impact of development of properties within critical areas. The goal of this chapter is to protect and improve the city of Port Townsend's critical areas for the present and future generations. Many elements of Port Townsend's natural environment are fragile resources that are sensitive to the impacts of urban development, or may pose hazards to the community if developed. These include the following areas and ecosystems: wetlands; critical aquifer recharge areas; fish and wildlife habitat conservation areas; frequently flooded areas; and geologically hazardous areas. These are termed "critical areas," which also include their protective buffers, and are of special concern to the city and the citizens of the state. This document addresses only the city's critical areas — it has been determined that the city will not designate any natural resource lands as defined by the Growth Management Act. It is the intent of this chapter to protect the public health, safety, and welfare by: Vs. 5 413 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) CODES AND COMPREHENSIVE PLANS for NATURAL HAZARD REDUCTION REVIEW DOCUMENT PURPOSE SCHEDULE A. Reducing the potential for personal injury, loss of life or property damage due to flooding, erosion, landslides, seismic events or soil subsidence; B. Using the ARC approach to critical area impacts —Avoid, Reduce, and Compensate: 1. First, if at all possible, avoid adverse impacts; 2. Second, if that is not reasonable or possible, reduce adverse impacts by: a. Minimizing or limiting the degree or magnitude of the development and its implementation by using appropriate technology, or by taking affirmative steps to avoid or reduce impacts, b. Reducing or eliminating the impact over time by preservation and maintenance operations during the life of the development activity; 3. Finally compensate for the impact by: a. Rectifying the adverse impact by repairing, rehabilitating, or restoring the affected environment, b. Compensating for unavoidable impacts by replacing, enhancing or providing substitute resources or environments; C. Protecting against publicly financed expenditures due to the misuse of critical areas which cause on-site or off-site: 1. Unnecessary maintenance and replacement of public facilities; 2. Public funding of mitigation for avoidable impacts; 3. Cost for public emergency rescue and relief operations where the causes are avoidable; 4. Degradation of the natural environment; D. Protecting unique, fragile and valuable elements of the environment, including fish and wildlife and their habitats; E. Alerting appraisers, assessors, owners, potential buyers or lessees to the development limitations of critical areas; F. Providing city officials with sufficient information to adequately protect critical areas when approving, conditioning or denying public or private development proposals; Vs. 5 414 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) CODES AND COMPREHENSIVE PLANS for NATURAL HAZARD REDUCTION REVIEW DOCUMENT PURPOSE SCHEDULE G.

Shoreline Master Plan In order to protect the public interest in the preservation and reasonable use of the Last update May shorelines of the state, the Shoreline Management Act establishes a planning program 12, 2012 coordinated between the state and local jurisdictions to address the types and effects of development occurring along the state's shorelines. By law, the City is responsible for the following: A. Development of an inventory of the natural characteristics and land use patterns along "shorelines of the state" within the City's territorial limits. B. Preparation of a" Shoreline Master Program" to determine the future of the shorelines. This fixture is defined through the goals developed for the following land and water use elements: economic development, public access, circulation, recreation, shoreline use, conservation, historical/cultural protection, and floodplain management. Policy 63.1 Protect the environment through implementation of this Master Program in concert with the City's Critical Areas Ordinance and through the use of the AMRRC mitigation sequence (Avoid, Minimize, Rectify, Reduce, Compensate) (WAC 173-26-201(e)).

City government format is a Council - Manager form of government. City staff evaluates actions based on community needs as expressed in the growth management act and the various comprehensive plans adopted by council. Staff prepares recommendations for specific actions to the council for consideration. Council weighs the input from staff and citizens before making any decision. Before an action may proceed there must be a demonstrated need and funding must be secured. When funding is available and approval of council is given, the project is included in the annual budget. Need for an action to proceed may be determined in a variety of ways including but not limited to: action items identified in adopted plans, benefit cost analysis, necessary service, emergency, directive from state or federal agency, safety or other benefit to the community. For planning purposes projects are evaluated and included in the annual update of the 6 -year capital facilities plan. Many projects in the capital facilities plan are dependent of outside funding. Possible sources of funding are the general fund, capital improvement funds, utility reserves, local improvement district, grant funding from a variety of sources including but not limited to private agencies, economic development organizations, state agencies, federal agencies and philanthropic sources. Other sources of funding may, from time to time, become available for specified actions that may or may not be included in the community planning process. Economic Analysis of Mitigation Projects The Federal Emergency Management Agency's approaches to identify costs and benefits associated with natural hazard mitigation strategies or projects fall into two general categories: benefit/cost analysis (BCA) and cost-effectiveness analysis. Where appropriate, proposed activities will be evaluated using the BCA tools and Hazus modeling software, along with empirical data to assess whether or not the mitigation strategy is justified. Repetitive Loss Properties The City of Port Townsend has one repetitive loss property. It is a residence built within 100' of the Puget Sound and the building is valued at $303,150 based on current assessments. Since there is only one repetitive loss property at risk, identifying its location more specifically would violate federal disclosure regulations.

Vs. 5 436 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) City of Port Townsend Water System Water District Profile The City of Port Townsend is supplied by a water system known as the Olympic Gravity Water Supply System that delivers the water required by Port Townsend and the Port Townsend Paper Company. The Paper Company paid for the construction of the system, and operates the system under an agreement with the City. The City owns the system and is responsible for paying the costs when it becomes necessary to replace the system. The system has a delivery capacity of 20 million gallons per day, most of which is used by the Paper Company. Due to both drought and economic conditions, the Port Townsend Paper Company has been working to reduce its demand on water resources and has cut its daily consumption to less than 10 million gallons. In the present agreement, the City is responsible for all capital improvements, unless a facility item is irreparably damaged due to an "Act of God", such as earthquake, landslide, or flooding event. Under this circumstance, the City and Company share in the replacement of the structure. The system consists of two water surface diversion structures, Lords Lake, City Lake and 30 miles of pipeline. Replacement costs have been estimated at $54,000,000 for total replacement of the pipeline, $300,000 for the dam at the Big Quilcene River Diversion, and $500,000 for hydraulic structures and gates at the diversion dams.

(Rev. 2009) Vs. 5 453 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) NEW MITIGATION ACTIVITY: PORT TOWNSEND RESILIENCY CENTER ACTIVITY ID: LT -MH -7 Since 2003, when Port Townsend replaced its fire station with one that was designed to whether earthquakes better, the City has systematically been hardening and seismically retrofitting critical public infrastructure to improve the survivability of the public within those or using those structures. This includes building the fire station, seismically retrofitting two city halls, the historic Carnegie library, the police station, downtown tunnel lids, and the water distribution facility that is a critical node in the City's water system. While commendable, it has become clear that after a four to 5 -minute magnitude 9+ earthquake, such as can happen at any time now if the Cascadia Subduction Zone ruptures along the Washington coast, Port Townsend and Jefferson County will become a refugee zone for months. It is easy to see that highways and bridges will be compromised, the power grid can cease to function for months, and public and private infrastructure will be devastated. Just -in - time supply lines will be destroyed and the entire Olympic Peninsula could be thrown back to the equivalent of having to survive in the late 1800's. Depending on where such an event occurred, the kind of help promised in exercises may not be available to send. Mitigating the effects of such a disaster goes beyond improving infrastructure per se. Survival is not just making it through the 5 -minutes of terror in a major earthquake, it is making it through the 5 -months following when mere survival is job number one for everyone. The Plan Goals include implementing activities that assist in protecting lives by making ... property more resistant to losses form natural hazards, and providing citizens from all areas of Jefferson County with the information and tools they need to help them ... in the hours and days immediately following an emergency or disaster event. There are also Plan Goals that encourage the development of public — private partnerships to implement local and regional mitigation activities. In the spirit of the above goals, the City of Port Townsend, the Port Townsend School District, the Jefferson County Public Hospital District No.2 (Jefferson HealthCare) and the YMCA have assembled a partnership that are willing to contribute assets to create a Port Townsend Resiliency Center to assist the community with pre and post long term recovery. This concept takes the proposed YMCA facility to be built on School District property and re - scopes the design to "Essential Facility" code and prioritizes the design to meet "key" activities for the partnership to promote resiliency through Wellness, Access, Education, Engagement and Self Sufficiency.

Basic information on these facilities is available from public sources, and therefore, it is included in this report. Sensitive information about critical facilities has not been published. The information contained in this document presents the results of this effort to identify the specific natural hazards threatening Jefferson County, to characterize die vulnerability of Jefferson County regarding these hazards, and to identify current as well as proposed mitigation strategies, projects and/or programs to address those vulnerabilities. The analyses conducted by the County staff were based on the best currently available information and data regarding the characteristics of the neighborhoods identified, the natural hazards that threaten the people, property, and environment of these neighborhoods as well as the impacts these neighborhoods have suffered in past disasters. This information includes, when available, United States Census data, local tax records, local and national geographic information system data, Flood Insurance Rate Maps, hazard specific analyses, and other environmental and demographic facts. However, very often authoritative or current information simply was not available for the planning effort. In these cases, the experience, knowledge and judgment of local officials representing Jefferson County, the judgment of knowledgeable officials and simplified analyses is considered acceptable at this stage to allow the participating organizations to complete the tasks needed to develop this multi jurisdictional natural hazards mitigation plan. As the planning continues in future years, or at the time when a proposed mitigation initiative is intended to be funded and/or implemented, the participating organizations/jurisdictions recognize that additional information and analyses may be required. Jefferson County is committed to the implementation of the mitigation related projects/programs described in this section of the plan when and if resources become available. County government is also committed to continuing the mitigation planning process that has resulted in the development of this document, and to the ongoing cooperation with other agencies, organizations, and jurisdictions to make the County more resistant to the damages and hardships that could otherwise be the result of future natural disasters.

Available at: http://bsa.nfipstat.fema.gov/reports/w2rhudrp.htm Jefferson County is a participant in good standing in the NFIP program. NFIP participation has been institutionalized as part of the county's risk management efforts, thus assuring that NFIP requirements are routinely reviewed and that changes to local ordinances, the Shoreline Master Plan, etc. are made consistent with those requirements. Since the county's Comprehensive Use Plan, its Shoreline Master Plan, and others have specific review and update cycles, NFIP-related changes normally occur during a planned review and update unless specific circumstances such as an externally mandated implementation date dictates otherwise. Vs. 5 458 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Jefferson County attempted to become a participant in the Community Rating System (CRS) in 2008, but the effort fell short due to the loss of key personnel working on the project. In 2009 and 2010, the Jefferson County Department of Community Development (DCD) was reduced by 50% due to the loss of revenue from construction permits. This resulted in the effort to become a CRS participant being pushed back in priority as the remaining staff focused primarily on revenue generating activities and external mandates. The county is still operating with reduced staffing in DCD. Planning Methodologies To make jurisdiction -wide analysis of the population at risk for each hazard type feasible and practical for mitigation planning purposes, a simplified approach has been used. The estimate of the population at risk for specific hazards is accomplished in the following manner: The population in a specific neighborhood is estimated by local planners, based on readily available data or their best judgment in the absence of suitable data. The population could be residents, workers, visitors, institutionalized individuals, mixed population types, etc., depending on the characteristics of the neighborhood. The percentage of the area of the specific neighborhood threatened by the identified hazard is then estimated by local planners, again based on readily available data or their best judgment. The percent of the neighborhood at risk is then used as a multiplier to determine the estimated number of people at risk from that hazard. The methodology is simplistic but conservative, in that it assumes occupied structures are uniformly distributed throughout the neighborhood in relation to the area of risk, that the population is present in the neighborhood on a 24 hour, 7 -day basis, and that all individuals are equally vulnerable to the impacts of the hazard event. The derived estimates for the number of people at risk may therefore be higher than actually is the case, but the estimates are considered satisfactory to support the local mitigation planning process. To make jurisdiction -wide analysis of the dollar value of properties at risk for each hazard type feasible and practical for mitigation planning purposes, a simplified approach has been used. The estimate of the dollar value of properties at risk for specific hazards is accomplished in the following manner: The number of structures in a specific neighborhood and the average dollar value for those structures is estimated by local planners, based on readily available data or their best judgment in the absence of suitable data. The percentage of the specific neighborhood threatened by the identified hazard is then estimated by local planners, again based on readily available data or their best judgment. The percent of the neighborhood at risk is then used as a multiplier to determine the estimated number of structures at risk from that hazard. This number is then multiplied by the estimated average cost of the structures to derive an estimated total value of the property at risk of damage in that neighborhood from the identified hazard. The methodology is simplistic but conservative, in that it assumes structures are uniformly distributed throughout the neighborhood in relation to the area of risk; that the hazard threatens the entire value of each structure; and that structures are equally vulnerable to the impacts of the hazard. The derived estimates for the dollar value of property at risk may therefore be higher than would actually be the case, but the estimates are considered satisfactory to support the local mitigation planning process. To make analysis of the dollar value of critical assets for each hazard type, insurance records were obtained for all public buildings. Tax roles were used for the valuation of districts and of specific buildings or locations, as appropriate.

However, every year since 2009, the County incurred significant damage from events that were not necessarily federally declared disasters. Most of the recovery funds came through a combination of county funds, Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), and the County Road Administration Board (CRAB). Table 1 shows the disaster expenditures on county roads for each year from 2010 thru 2015: Table 1.

Declarations that directly affected Jefferson County are highlighted in RED, while declarations that affected adjacent counties are highlighted in BLUE. Jefferson County is impacted by disasters in neighboring counties in two ways: 1. It has mutual aid agreements with adjacent counties, so wildfires, windstorms, and landslides, for example, can and do result in Jefferson County resources being expended; and 2. Since Jefferson County is on a peninsula, strategically occurring disasters in neighboring counties can disrupt deliveries of food and fuel to Jefferson County just when it is needed most. An earthquake or storm that takes out the Hood Canal Bridge, for example, will cause major economic damage to Jefferson County.

AREAS' The purpose of the Jefferson County critical areas ordinance is to comply with state law and to describe authorized methods and procedures established to ensure the functions and values of critical areas are not degraded when allowing approved uses and development activities in the county. This regulation offers landowners a choice of two methods for ensuring the functions and values of critical areas are not degraded: (1) For any critical area, landowners may use a prescriptive method, as described herein; or (2) For fish and wildlife habitat conservation areas (FWHCA) and wetlands, landowners may choose an adaptive method by providing a site-specific stewardship plan (see Article IX, JCC 18.22.460).

By law, the City is responsible for the following: A. Development of an inventory of the natural characteristics and land use patterns along "shorelines of the state" within the City's territorial limits. B. Preparation of a" Shoreline Master Program" to determine the fixture of the shorelines. This fixture is defined through the goals developed for the following land and water use elements: economic development, public access, circulation, recreation, shoreline use, conservation, historical/cultural protection, and floodplain management. Policy 63.1 Protect the environment through implementation of this Master Program in concert with the City's Critical Areas Ordinance and through the use of the AMRRC mitigation sequence (Avoid, Minimize, Rectify, Reduce, Compensate) (WAC 173-26-201(e)). Policy 6.7.1 Ensure that new development in areas prone to periodic flooding comply with the City's Flood Damage Prevention standards (Chapter 16.08, PTMC) to minimize health hazards and property damage due to flooding. Policy 6.7.2 Develop, enhance, and implement education programs aimed at mitigating natural hazards, and reducing the risk to citizens, public agencies, private property owners, businesses and schools. Policy 6.7.3 Encourage development of acquisition and management strategies to preserve open space for flood mitigation, fish habitat, and water quality in frequently flooded areas.

County government format is a county administrator with board of commissioners. County staff evaluates actions based on community needs as expressed in the growth management act and the various comprehensive plans adopted by the commissioners. Staff prepares recommendations for specific actions to the commissioners for consideration. Board of Commissioners weighs the input from staff and citizens before making any decision. Before an action may proceed there must be a demonstrated need and funding must be secured. When funding is available and approval of the Board is given, the project is included in the annual budget. Need for an action to proceed may be determined in a variety of ways including but not limited to: action items identified in adopted plans, cost benefit analysis, necessary service, emergency, directive from state or federal agency, safety or other benefit to the community. For planning purposes projects are evaluated and included in the annual update of the 6 -year capital facilities plan. Many projects in the capital facilities plan are dependent of outside funding. Possible sources of funding are the general fund, capital improvement funds, utility reserves, local improvement district, grant funding from a variety of sources including but not limited to private agencies, economic development organizations, state agencies, federal agencies and philanthropic sources. Other sources of funding may, from time to time, become available for specified actions that may or may not be included in the community planning process. Economic Analysis of Mitigation Projects The Federal Emergency Management Agency's approaches to identify costs and benefits associated with natural hazard mitigation strategies or projects fall into two general categories: benefit/cost analysis (BCA) and cost-effectiveness analysis. Where appropriate, proposed activities will be evaluated using the BCA tools and HazusMH modeling software, along with empirical data to assess whether or not the mitigation strategy is justified. Repetitive Loss Properties Jefferson County has one repetitive loss property. It is a residence built within 150' of a small river in the south of the county. The building is valued at $70,695, based on current assessments. Since there is only one repetitive loss property at risk, identifying its location more specifically would violate federal disclosure regulations.

FD5 i y 6uckharn�'� Nwn : n a� FFD4J =i FD2 COUT FDi � I Current and Anticipated Service Trends: Currently the Brinnon area is growing in both population and area covered. The demographics of the population have increased to where the average age is over 65, this equates to more medical calls rather than fire calls. This is not to say that there is no fire danger. With DNR losing funding on a yearly basis the need for more localized wildland firefighting capabilities is paramount. Especially given that a majority of the properties purchased over the last 15 years were for vacation homes and now that those individuals are retiring and converting those vacation homes to full time residents. There is also the approval and development of the Black Point Resort. This development will create more demand for services especially during an event. There are some plans in the FEIS for the resort that will assist with reducing but not eliminating the impact that the population growth will have on both fire and EMS services.

Some of the mitigation strategies are universal, and everyone will participate in them to the extent their resources allow. Other strategies are peculiar to the unique circumstances of the particular district or entity that brought them forth. Mitigation Goals The natural hazard mitigation goals listed in this portion of the plan are multi jurisdictional in nature and are intended to help guide the direction of and prioritize future natural hazard mitigation activities at the local level aimed at reducing risk and preventing loss from natural hazards. The plan goals describe the overall direction that Jefferson County and Port Townsend agencies, organizations, special districts, private industry and citizens can take toward mitigating risk from natural hazards. The goals are the guiding principles from the broad direction of the mission statement to the specific recommendations of the action items. (1) Protect Life and Property • Implement activities that assist in protecting lives by making homes, businesses, infrastructure, critical facilities, and other property more resistant to losses from natural hazards. • Improve hazard assessment information to make recommendations for discouraging new development and encouraging preventive measures for existing development in areas vulnerable to natural hazards. • Enhance the Jefferson Community Emergency Response Team (C.ERT.) Program to provide citizens from all areas of Jefferson County with the information and tools they need to help them, their families, and their neighbors in the hours and days immediately following an emergency or disaster event. • Encourage homeowners and businesses to purchase insurance coverage for damages caused by natural hazards. • Encourage homeowners and businesses to take preventative actions in areas that are especially vulnerable to natural hazards. (2) Public Awareness • Develop and implement education and outreach programs to increase public awareness of the risks associated with natural hazards. • Provide information on tools, partnership opportunities, and funding resources to assist in implementing mitigation activities. • Develop and implement additional education and outreach programs to increase public awareness of the risks associated with natural hazards. • Continue the current flood awareness programs conducted by various jurisdictions as part ofthe National Flood Insurance Program Community Rating System. • Create an earthquake awareness program conducted by various jurisdictions in which the vulnerability to earthquakes is high. • Enhance the awareness programs for Wildland — Urban Interface fire risks, particularly with Homeowners Associations in wildland settings. Vs. 5 629 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) (3) Natural Systems • Balance watershed planning, natural resource planning, and land use planning with natural hazard mitigation to protect life, property, the economy, and the environment. • Preserve, rehabilitate, and enhance natural systems to serve natural hazard mitigation functions. (4) Partnerships and Implementation • Encourage leadership within private and public sector organizations to prioritize and implement local, county, and regional hazard mitigation activities. • Strengthen inter jurisdiction and inter -agency communication and coordination and partnering of jurisdictions and agencies within Jefferson County to foster the establishment and implementation of natural hazard mitigation strategies and/or projects designed to benefit multiple jurisdictions. • Strengthen inter jurisdiction and inter -agency communication and coordination and partnering of jurisdictions and agencies between Jefferson County and its bordering neighbors to foster the establishment and implementation of natural hazard mitigation strategies and/or projects designed to benefit multiple jurisdictions. • Develop a partnership with the local and regional newspapers to produce a series of in-depth articles on each natural hazard and both personal and public mitigation techniques. • Develop and strengthen coordination and cooperation with local business and industries that are particularly vulnerable to natural hazards in Jefferson County. (5) Emergency Services • Encourage the establishment of policies at the local level to help insure the prioritizing and implementation of mitigation strategies and/or projects designed to benefit critical/essential facilities, services, and infrastructure. • Where appropriate, coordinate and integrate natural hazard mitigation activities with existing local emergency operations plans. • Strengthen emergency operations by increasing collaboration and coordination among public agencies, non-profit organizations, business, and industry. The Action Plan Matrix The action items are a listing of activities in which county and city agencies and jurisdictions and citizens can be engaged to reduce risk. Each action item includes an estimate of the timeline for implementation. Short-term action items (ST) are activities that may be implemented with existing resources and authorities within one to three years. Long-term action items (LT) may require new or additional resources or authorities, and may take between one and five years to implement. Ongoing action items (OG) are continuous activities such as the annual review and update of the mitigation plan, itself. The action items are organized within the following matrix, which lists all of the multi -hazard and hazard - specific action items included in the mitigation plan. These action items are the culmination of the data collection, research and analysis, and public participation process leading up to this plan. The Action Plan Matrix organizes this information into a management tool to be used in implementing the actions. The matrix includes the following information for each action item: • Natural Hazard. A unique identifier within the document that tells the type of action item (short-term or long-term), the type of hazard, and the action item number for that action in the plan. New or changed items in the list for 2016 are flagged with an "*". Vs. 5 630 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) • Action Item. A description of the action to be taken. • Champions. The organizations or individuals who are taking the lead responsibility in making the action happen. This can be the public agency with regulatory responsibility to address natural hazards, or that is willing and able to oversee activity, implementation, monitoring, and evaluation. Champions may include local, county, regional public and private agencies, businesses or individuals that are capable of or willing to be responsible for implementing activities and programs. • Timeline. Action items include both short-term and long-term activities. The time -line attempts to put a gross estimate of the time it will take to implement the action given the availability of resources needed. Some items will be an ongoing effort that effectively requires a lifestyle change or permanent allocation of resources, while other items may be events or programs with specific accomplishments by a specific time. • Plan Goals. This cell of the matrix contains the item numbers of the plan goals from the previous page that this activity seeks to meet. • Action Item Lifecycle Stage. Each activity that is not continuous has a life cycle that it goes through: action item concept, public input & planning, funding, execution of action item, adoption or implementation, maintenance, monitor and evaluate. This grid within the matrix provides a visual quick - reference to progress on a given activity. Life Cycle Stages include: (1) Action Item Concept - Indicates a concrete idea or plan has been developed to take forward in the process. (2) Public Input & Planning — Indicates that the process is at the stage where it is collecting public input and planning, if appropriate. (3) Funding — Indicates that funds are being sought to implement the action as appropriate. This can be from budget, grants, donations, etc. (4) Execution of Action Item — May be drafting of a report, ado (5) Adoption of policy resolutions, implementation of building projects, etc. (6) Adoption or Implement — Adoption of resolutions to implement plans or approve projects. (7) Maintain, Monitor, and Evaluate - Review, evaluate and maintain the project or plan as defined by the project charter. The format of the matrix is to have one table with the action items in it and a second table that marks the progress on the action items. The layout is intended to allow the user to open the Plan in a book format and have the corresponding pieces of both tables opposite each other for easy viewing. Elements that have changed in the revisions have their Natural Hazard ID marked with an asterisk. If the item has been completed, it also has a strike -through of the ID.

The entities presented below are a few of those that have proactive working relationships with Jefferson County and / or the City of Port Townsend, and are continuously involved in finding ways to reduce the effects of natural disasters. The Port Townsend Paper Company, for example, works with the City and County to prevent damage to the region's water supply during periods of drought. Each of the entities listed contains a background of the entity obtained from their website or from appropriate personnel, and the coordination issues it faces with regard to coordination with Jefferson County and the City in preparing for or reacting to disaster situations.

These range from weather, floods, tsunamis, and earthquakes to incidents involving hazardous materials, or significant law enforcement events. The division prepares and implements a county -wide Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan, routinely conducts extensive exercises to test county emergency response capabilities and provides educational materials to the public to better prepare them for emergency events. This section of the Sheriff's Office is Clallam counties liaison with federal and local agencies on emergencies of all kinds. Division staff members provide technical assistance to local governments as they prepare emergency plans and procedures and they also conduct emergency operations training for local governmental agencies.

This reduces the opportunity for Clallam to gain intelligence because of Jefferson County's Pacific Coast contacts, and reduces the situational awareness Jefferson County can gain from events impacting Clallam before it hits Jefferson. The Cascade Rising Exercise provided an opportunity for coordination of preparation efforts and training that can lead to closer coordination during storm events, etc. ' hlt2://www.clallam.net/EmergencyManagement/ Vs. 5 665 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Clallam County Fire District No.1 (CCFDI) (Clallam / Jefferson) CCFPDI covers the area centered around Forks, Wa.

Taxes $1,992.12 Clallam County Fire District I (CCFDI) - Coordination Issues An earthquake disaster event in CCFD1 jurisdiction has the potential to create multiple "micro- islands11.3 An event will result in the county being broken up into about 20 micro islands. We're the only county in the state that has looked at this, and identified the micro island areas. About six micro -islands: LaPush to bottom of Dickey Lake to Three Rivers. Another is Fairholm to Bear Creek, one from Bear Creek to Forks, one to Forks, then to Jeff Co. line. Clallam County is working on an agreement to assist with the Hoh area. There would be a Hoh North and Hoh South zone. Note that the micro -island areas are only identified up to the Jefferson County line. In a major disaster, communications will not be restored for a year.' Discussion about communication and restoration of services. It's likely to take up to year. Communications will initially have to use ham radio operators. Clallam County has to do Jefferson County assessments for CCFDI budget.' Initially, CCFDI submitted documents separately for Jefferson County annexed properties and the Clallam County properties. We are to submit one document in total and Clallam County Assessor's office handles the Jefferson County assessments.

Vs. 5 668 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Clallam PUD Coordination Issues Power Feed to Jefferson County Public Utility District No 1 (JCPUDl) and Port Townsend Paper: Since Port Townsend Paper is the major private industry in Port Townsend, it is a critical economic resource for the City and County, both. The Clallam PUD has a contract to provide power to Port Townsend Paper. To do this, they have a power line strung from Clallam County, above ground (water) across the lower portion of Discovery Bay to connect at JCPUDI's 4 -Corners Substation. The exposed line strung on power poles across the bay is vulnerable to severe local storms, earthquakes, and tsunami. Discovery Bay has recorded earthquakes centered in the bay of up to 5.4 on the Richter scale in the last 50 years. Scenario 1— Loss of Power Line: A long-term disruption of power to Port Townsend Paper would significantly affect the area's economy. If the Discovery Bay line is lost, JCPUDI needs to be able to replace the power for Port Townsend Paper from elsewhere on the grid. Scenario 2 — Puget Sound Earthquake: A significant earthquake centered on one of the many Puget Sound faults could take down power lines serving Jefferson County, but leave the Clallam PUD line undamaged. In this scenario, JCPUDl could obtain limited power from Clallam to support portions of the grid until repairs are made and power is restored through normal channels. Vs. 5 669 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Fort Worden State Park Originally designed as a military base to protect Puget Sound, Fort Worden evolved into an iconic and cherished state park. The fort — featuring 100 historic structures — spans two miles of saltwater shoreline with views of the Olympic and Cascade Mountains, and the San Juan Islands. The fort offers exceptional meeting space, comfortable accommodations and delectable dining options, all within a campus -like setting. Located within a couple of miles from historic downtown Port Townsend, shopping and sightseeing opportunities are just minutes away." Fort Worden is designated a National Landmark Historic District beloved by many people. 12 Nestled on 432 -acres of public lands, Fort Worden offers 30 forested campsites, 50 beach campsites and four primitive sites." Ninety acres are leased to the Fort Worden Public Development Authority (PDA), which manages the Lifelong Learning Center that consists of the educational and entertainment facets of the park. Fort Worden State Park - Coordination Issues Two and a half miles of sandy beach in a Tsunami zone: Part of the attraction of Fort Worden is the 2.5 miles of sandy beaches and adjacent RV campsites. The problem is that the area surrounding Jefferson County is a veritable spaghetti farm of earthquake faults. The South Whidbey Island Fault, for example, splits the distance between Fort Worden and Whidbey Island. This fault is capable of producing a 7.2 or greater earthquake under the Admiralty Inlet — followed by a tsunami or seiche. Patrons of the park must head for high ground as soon as the shaking has stopped. There will not be time for park officials or emergency management to ascertain if a tsunami has been generated and trigger the AHAB tsunami warning system. Large Seasonal Crowds & RV's on the Shoreline: In a local earthquake / tsunami event, it is possible to have hundreds of people on the beach and all 50 beach campsites full with RV's so that the immediate response is shock and inaction, trapping many between the beach and the high ground. In a "Distant Tsunami" event in which there are multiple hours before the wave arrives, warning sirens and notification can energize campers to pull their rigs out of the beach area, resulting in a bottleneck at the parade grounds, park exits and in the city streets adjacent to the park. 11 http://fortworden.org/about/ 12 http://fortworden.org/about/support-the-fort/ 13 http://fortworden.org/stay-here/ Vs. 5 670 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) The Hoh Tribe of Indians 14 The Hoh River Indians Reservation in Washington State consists of 443 acres. The Hoh Reservation has approximately one mile of beachfront running east from the mouth of the Hoh River, and south to Ruby Beach. The Hoh Reservation was logged in 1954 and it will be 40-60 years before the second growth will be of commercial value. None of this land has been allotted. The Hoh Indian Reservation was established by an Executive Order of September 11, 1963. The Hoh Tribe has formed Tribal Government under Public Law 89- 655, providing for a basic roll of tribal members. The livelihood of the Hoh Indians is primarily fishing although a few of the residents make traditional baskets, carved canoes for ocean going or river use, and other carvings. The local people dip for smelts on the beaches and use smokehouses for preserving food for future use. The tidelands are abundant with razor clams, butter clams, crab and perch fishing. 14 http://hohtribe-nsn.org/ Hoh Village, 1905 Vs. 5 671 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend Hoh Tribal Business Committee 2464 Lower Hoh Rd Forks, WA 98331 360-374-6582 About the Tribe All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Hoh Tribal Center, Forks, WA History The Hoh River Indians are considered a band of the Quileutes but are recognized as a separate tribe. The Hoh Reservation consists of 443 acres located 28 miles south of Forks, and 80 miles north of Aberdeen. The Hoh Reservation has approximately one mile of beachfront running east from the mouth of the Hoh River, and south to Ruby Beach. The Hoh Reservation was logged in 1954 and it will be 40-60 years before the second growth will be of commercial value. None of this land has been allotted. The Hoh Indian Reservation was established by an Executive Order of September 11, 1963. The Hoh Tribe has formed a Tribal Government under Public Law 89-655, providing for a basic roll of tribal members. The Governing body is elected by secret ballot biannually in November. The livelihood of the Hoh Indians is primarily fishing although a few of the residents make traditional decorative baskets, carved canoes for ocean going or river use and other decorative carvings. The local people dip for smelts on the beaches and still use smokehouses for preserving food for future use. The tidelands are abundant with razor clams, butter clams, crab and perch fishing. About the Area Geography Reservation is 443 acres about 28 miles south of Forks, Washington. City: Forks, population 2,870, elevation 300, (logging community on Highway 101 between Port Angeles and Pacific Coast).

Total Tribal Employees Approximately 20 FTE. Vs. 5 672 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) The Hoh Indian Tribe Coordination Issues Flood and Tsunami: The Hoh River opens out to the Pacific Ocean where it serves as a funnel for tsunami. It is also a collector for the Hoh River basin which meanders significantly and which frequently floods. The Hoh Indian Tribe Reservation sits near the mouth of the river, and is perennially dealing with flood issues. In 2009, the Hoh Tribe of Indians was able to swap land with local private owners and with the federal government to provide higher ground to which to move critical facilities. Coordination with Jefferson County Department of Emergency Management: The Jefferson County Department of Emergency Management has been working with the Tribal Council to fmd ways to assist the tribe in an emergency. Efforts include the acquisition of a warning siren to call the tribe together in an emergency, and the moving of buildings outside of areas of repeated flooding. Coordination with Jefferson County Public Works: Part of the issues surrounding the flooding of the Hoh river involve the meanders of the river, and the placing of rip rap to protect vulnerable sections of roads running parallel to the river. Jefferson County Public Works fights an ongoing problem of the river flooding and undercutting roads resulting in landslides where sections of the road break loose. The Hoh Tribe of Indians, Jefferson County Public Works, and the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife need to coordinate on a river plan that will protect the roads, accommodate wildlife, and mitigate the effects of repetitive flooding. Vs. 5 673 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) KPTZ 91.9 FM KPTZ and Emergency Preparedness15 KPTZ Goals and Responsibilities KPTZ's role is to pass on vital information in partnership with the Jefferson County Emergency Operation Center (JCEOC). In an emergency our target is to get the right KPTZ people to the right place at the right time. Our primary goal is to provide vital and timely information for events which are considered emergencies by the JCEOC. That is, where lives or property are in real danger. We have a secondary goal to educate community members on how to prepare for an emergency. We are not currently a news service. Although we do try to report on local events from start to finish, currently we do not have the staff to consistently respond to road closures, traffic accidents and other important but not catastrophic events. We are, however, looking at ways to incorporate timely information for most of the events broadcast on the Nixle system. About KPTZ The KPTZ Emergency team is made up of 8-io volunteers in partnership with Bob Hamlin (Emergency Management Program Manager) and Keppie Keplinger (PIO) of the JCEOC. We have been meeting regularly since January 2013 and have run many tests of our systems. We have documented most of the emergency systems. We are officially a trusted partner with the JCEOC. A very rare privilege for community radio stations. As a result our staff will be permitted to embed in the JCEOC and broadcast directly from that facility if necessary. Several team members have passed the 4 basic FEMA classes in order to be credentialed by the JCEOC and therefore allowed to be embedded. We provide all these services at extremely low cost. " haps://kptz.org/emergency_preparedness/ Vs. 5 674 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Backup Systems KPTZ has built many backup systems. Both the transmitter and studio have generators. There is a microwave link between the centers that will allow communication even if the phone lines are down. There is a backup studio at the transmitter site in case the primary studio is inoperable. KPTZ is implementing a hand held radio network for communication among team members. There is a KPTZ desk at the JCEOC with the capability of interrupting regular programming with emergency updates. We can remotely record information and place it into the studio system to give regular updates. We are developing a network of individuals we can call on to provide "on the ground" information in the case of an emergency. KPTZ Coordination Issues Staffing During an Emergency The entire team knows that they will look after the safety and well-being of their own family first before attending to the needs of the station. In the case of a widespread emergency there will be a delay before we can get on the air with information. What we Still Need to do: • Train more staff on the emergency procedures. • Improve our documentation. • Increase our networking within the county. • Develop a news team. • Maintain the stations readiness. Vs. 5 675 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Neighborhood Emergency Preparedness Groups (NPREP)16 Emergency Preparedness The Intent A community's level of self-reliance and resilience is never more apparent—and critical– than when disaster strikes. This is true whether the disaster is an earthquake, a power outage or an economic collapse. While the activities of all Local 20/20 Action Groups enhance our ability to adapt to such an event, the Neighborhood Preparedness (NPREP) Action Group focuses on the particular needs that arise from a sudden plunge into radically different circumstances. We do this by assisting area residents through education and by example to become self-reliant before a disaster strikes, thus enhancing resilience throughout our community as we work to recover. Projects, Past and Present The main focus of the NPREP Action Group is to help neighbors organize so that they may work together when a disaster occurs, thereby enhancing the safety and comfort of all in such difficult times. Working with the Jefferson County Department of Emergency Management (DEM), this effort has facilitated the self -organization of well over 100 neighborhoods since 2006. While the number of organized neighborhoods is significant, many more are needed in Jefferson County. Such neighborhood cooperation is built on a foundation of preparedness by individual households. The NPREP Action Group helped promote a series of emergency preparedness classes presented by Heather Taraka, a course that is now available at Get Emergency Prepared. NPREP also worked with the Port Townsend Food Co-op to stage a store -wide special pricing and educational event, now held annually, featuring foods and supplies necessary for disaster preparedness. Finally, all of NPREP's goals converge at the Annual All -County Picnic. The first Picnic, held in 2013, was a great success with a turnout of more than 1,000 people. The Picnic offers informational talks and booths, great music, free corn on the cob, hands-on survival techniques, and a chance for neighbors to gather as one community. People interested in organizing their own neighborhoods can meet with NPREP team members to learn about the process. 16 hit2:H12020.or,-/emergency_preparedness/ Vs. 5 676 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Opportunities to Participate The NPREP Action Group is currently one of the most active of Local 20/20's action groups, and is working in partnership with the Jefferson County Department of Emergency Management (DEM) to strengthen pre and post -disaster collaboration between neighborhoods and the Emergency Operations Center in areas such as communication and damage assessment. We provide regular outreach events to educate the public on emergency preparedness matters and/or to recruit new neighborhood organizers. We also coordinate training opportunities for our organizers and house ad hoc projects, such as the development of a plan for post -disaster sanitation. Contact: NPREP@L202O.org Source: I2020.org/emergency-preparedness NPREP - Coordination issues Uneven Levels of Commitment: With over 100 neighborhood emergency groups, there are a wide variety of knowledge, commitment, and persistence. The success of any given group can be a function of the neighborhood leadership in pulling together a group and developing an "institutional" commitment so that the group doesn't dissipate if a key member leaves. Communication Protocols: Communication within a neighborhood, among neighborhoods, and with the Emergency Operations Center are still early in their development. Some neighborhoods are large enough to support a communications unit, while others are dependent on individuals that have taken the initiative to get an amateur radio license or familiarity with FRS radios. EOC Usage Protocols: It is clear that having communications with the NPREP groups can help the EOC develop situational awareness during an emergency. How to do this is at an early stage of development and, as with the levels of commitment, there are significant differences in neighborhoods ability to respond — even under routine circumstances. There is also a need to get the EOC procedures defined for handling the information coming into the EOC from this route in addition to its normal sources such as JeffCom. Vs. 5 677 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Port Townsend Paper? CEO: Steve Klinger Customer Base Port Townsend Paper Mission Port Townsend Paper Corporation's mission is to be the answer to our customers' need for fiber -based packaging. To accomplish this goal, we have dramatically increased our productivity, established a long-term, stable fiber supply, and refocused on important markets in North America. Port Townsend Paper is committed to our customers, to whom we sell unbleached kraft pulp, jumbo roll kraft paper, and kraft linerboard. We have more than 380 customers in over 15 countries worldwide, with the largest concentration of our customers in North America and Asia. Our focus in North America is on selling to converters of kraft jumbo rolls. The mill sells almost 100% of its pulp overseas and thousands of tons of kraft paper grades and linerboard annually. Customers range from family-owned converters that sell their products within a local region to huge international companies. A small customer may purchase 45,000 pounds (one truckload) of paper per month, while a large customer may require 1 to 2.5 million pounds of paper or pulp per month. Ongoing customer relationships account for much of our business, but continued success is based on providing the products customers need on a timely basis and at a competitive price. Logistics To meet the needs of our customers and to keep up with production, we operate and ship 24 hours a day each day of the year. In an average month, more than 800 trucks are loaded at the mill, along with an occasional barge. Since Port Townsend last had rail service in 1988, any shipments requiring boxcars are trucked to Tacoma and transferred to rail cars. Raw materials include wood chips and old corrugated cardboard (OCC). Almost 2,000 trucks and 10-15 barges a month deliver the chips from the Olympic Peninsula and other locations, and more than 300 trucks bring OCC for our recycling plant. For efficiency and pollution reduction, we reload as many of these trucks as possible with outbound product. Community Involvement Port Townsend Paper Corporation contributes more to the community than the $27 million it puts into the local economy. Many mill employees are personally involved in the community. Port Townsend Paper makes a 50% match to its employees' considerable contributions to United Good NeighborsUGN), a local service organization. The mill's contribution to UGN is a long- standing tradition and a point of pride. "http://www.pipt C.com/ Vs. 5 678 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Education has always been a mill priority too. The company often participates in internship programs, offers scholarships, and provides tours and educational programs to school children. The mill also works with educational organizations like Centrum. Our involvement with our local Port Townsend Marine Science Center has included a longstanding membership on the Board of Directors, yearly sponsorship for a college intern, and a donation toward the capital project for upgrade and expansion of their educational facility. We support other local community projects such as the new Northwest Maritime Center and the Larry Scott Memorial Trail, through donations and expertise. Port Townsend Paper maintains active memberships on teams that address local environmental issues such as the Solid Waste Advisory Council and the Emergency Preparedness Council. We provide specialized safety training to our employees, local emergency response teams and to the general public. In fact, mill employees constitute a large portion of volunteer emergency crews in Jefferson County. The Company participates in many other groups and on many other projects that support community businesses, economics, education, and youth activities. Among these are the School Board, coaching for local youth athletic teams, the Economic Development Council, Habitat for Humanily, Chamber of Commerce, and the Peninsula College Foundation. Port Townsend Paper - Coordination Issues Drought: Port Townsend Paper is one of the few businesses directly impacted by drought conditions in the County. During severe drought they have curtailed operations to assure adequate water supplies for the population. Wildfire: The perimeter of the Port Townsend Paper is either waterfront or rural with a heavy interlacing of urban wilderness. In addition, mountains of wood chips are stored on site in the open as raw material for the paper making process. Port Townsend Paper coordinates with multiple fire districts to respond in the case of either structural or wildfire situations in and about their facilities. Earthquake, Flood, and Tsunami: Port Townsend Paper is built in a flood, tsunami and seismic hazard area. The characteristics that make this location vulnerable happen to be the characteristics that made it a desirable place for the paper plant in 1927. Water Shortage: Port Townsend Paper is one of the few businesses directly impacted by low water tables and growth in the Jefferson County area. In 2009, the lake supplying water to the region got down to a 20 -day supply. Port Townsend Paper has agreements that it will stop operations when the water level reaches a 15 -day supply, thus protecting the area's water supply but hurting its economy. Vs. 5 679 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Propane Providers Port Townsend and Jefferson County do not have a natural gas provider. Consequently, heating and cooking are done with wood, electricity, or propane. The primary providers are Cenex, Ferrellgas, Suburban Propane, Mountain Propane, Sunshine Propane, and Propane Northwest, Inc., whose combined service area is shown in the map below. Propane Providers - Coordination issues Earthquake: Our nightmare scenario is a Magnitude 7 or higher earthquake that detaches 1000 propane tanks from their moorings and starts explosions and fires everywhere. Simulations have shown that a magnitude -7 earthquake centered on the Whidbey Island Fault would devastate Quimper Peninsula, where the majority of Jefferson County's population is. There is no question that we will eventually be hit with a large earthquake; the only question is when. Partnering with the local propane providers to educate consumers about building codes related to propane tanks, and earthquake resistant set-ups for tanks will help reduce the effects when "the big one" becomes a reality. Two large and damaging explosions recently took place in the central Puget Sound; one a propane tank explosion in a home in Port Orchard on Feb. 23, 2016 resulted in two fatalities. The other was a natural gas explosion in the Greenwood distinct of Seattle on Mar. 9, 2016.

Simulations have shown that a magnitude -7 earthquake centered on the Whidbey Island Fault would devastate Quimper Peninsula, where the majority of Jefferson County's population is. There is no question that we will eventually be hit with a large earthquake; the only question is when. Partnering with the local propane providers to educate consumers about building codes related to propane tanks, and earthquake resistant set-ups for tanks will help reduce the effects when "the big one" becomes a reality. Two large and damaging explosions recently took place in the central Puget Sound; one a propane tank explosion in a home in Port Orchard on Feb. 23, 2016 resulted in two fatalities. The other was a natural gas explosion in the Greenwood distinct of Seattle on Mar. 9, 2016.

Vs. 5 682 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) U.S. Coast Guard - Port Townsend 20 Established: The 13th Coast Guard District commissioned the U.S. Coast Guard Cutter Osprey, the first 87 -foot cutter for the District, on June 19, 1999, at Union Warf Pier in Port Townsend, Wash. The 87 -foot cutter, built by Bollinger Shipyard, in Lockport, La., is the first to arrive in the Northwest, replacing the 82 -foot Point Class Patrol Boats. The cutter brings with it money and timesaving technology such as updated bridge radar and controls, and more safety features including the rear— deploying small boat. The Osprey also has the capability to support a co-ed crew. The aluminum superstructure and steel hull and main deck are designed for a 25 -year service life. The new design has several enhancements over the aging 82 -foot patrol boats that it is replacing. Improvements include stability in open ocean (up to 8— foot seas), significantly upgraded habitability (allowing for a mixed -gender, 10 -person crew with 11 berths max), 25— knot maximum speed, and compliance with all current and projected environmental protection laws. The 87 -footer employs an innovative stern launch and recovery system using an aluminum -hulled inboard diesel -powered water jet small boat. The ship's vastly larger pilothouse is equipped with an integrated bridge system including an electronic chart display information system, which interfaces with the Coast Guard's new surface search radar. Accomplished Operations: Law enforcement, search and rescue, marine environmental response, recreational boating safety enforcement and military readiness. The Osprey was the lead Coast Guard asset in a recent cocaine seizure from the motor vessel Western Wind in February 2000. This was the largest seizure of cocaine in the Northwest, 2.5 tons with a street value of more than $200 million.

The Sheriff s Department Marine Patrol and the Port Townsend Fire Department are working to coordinate efforts. Depending on availability, the Coast Guard may assume incident command, but the fire department in particular is the only unit in the bay with a waterborne firefighting capability. Law Enforcement and Fire may have roles to play at sea in conjunction with the Coast Guard during the aftermath of severe local storms or tsunami. PTFD also provides assistance during oil spills or events that may threaten an ecological disaster. Terrorist: A seaborne terrorist event would undoubtedly result in a response of the Navy, Coast Guard, and appropriate elements of local law and fire departments. The nature of the incident would determine the roles. Vs. 5 684 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) U.S. Naval Magazine - Indian Island 21 Commanding Officer: Cmdr. Nicholas Vande Griend Naval Magazine Indian Island (NAVMAG II) officially joined the four major US Navy installations of Navy Region Northwest during a brief ceremony on April 27', 2000. The 2,716 - acre facility reports directly to the Navy Region Northwest Commander. Indian Island is approximately five miles long and oriented on a north -south axis between Marrowstone Island and the mainland of the Quimper Peninsula, between the waters of Port Townsend and Kilisut Harbor. The NAVMAG II mission is to provide ordnance operations support including the receipt, storage, inspection and issue of naval ordnance. Staffing levels of active duty members, civil service and contract employees remains static and Navy Region Northwest tugs provide docking evolution support to vessels berthed at the wharf. The Ammunition Wharf is located on the extreme northwest part of the island at approximately 48004'30"N 122045'00"W. The pier is the primary maritime facility of NAVMAG II and is large enough to accommodate a Nimitz class aircraft carrier (1,040 ft. long/91,487 to 96,358 tons). The pier is 1,500 ft. (457 m) long. Alongside depths at the wharf are 50 ft. (15.2 m) or more. Three mooring buoys are located south of the south endo of the ammunition pier and are utilized as moorage for moorage floats, USN Ship Training, and foul weather anchorages. The Explosive Anchorages listed on Chart 18464 are no longer utilized. United States Coast Pilot 7 mentions a "usual" anchorage of unspecified holding quality about 0.5 to 0.7 nmi south of the "railroad ferry terminal" at Port Townsend, on a muddy bottom in depths of 48 to 60 ft (14.6 to 18.3 m). The location would place the anchorage approximately 1.4 nmi north-northwest of the NAVMAG II Pier. The same document states that in southerly gales, better anchorage is afforded close inshore off the north end of Marrowstone Island or near the head of the bay on a muddy bottom in "moderate depths." Because of its protected location on Port Townsend Bay, wave motion is not an issue at the wharf and currents are not a significant problem. Prevailing currents within Port Townsend bay north of the wharf are circular, and may set clockwise or counter -clockwise, depending on wind flow and the tide. Harbor pilots who service ships at the wharf, state that ebb tides cause strong currents in Admiralty Inlet. Because of the relatively narrow entrance channel, ships destined for the wharf must keep at least 10 kt steerageway until well west of a line between Point Wilson and Marrowstone Point. A strong north -setting current passes west of Indian Island through Port Townsend Canal (between Indian Island and the mainland of the Quimper Peninsula) during an ebb tide, but the waters of Port Townsend bay, largely diffuse it before it reaches the wharf. Strong southerly winds are the primary hazard for wharf is strong southerly winds that move north around both sides of Indian Island, reaching the pier as south southeasterly. Arriving ships normally approach the pier in a wide, counterclockwise turn, and moor starboard side to the pier 21 http://www.mybaseguide.com/navy/14-550/nb_kitsap naval_ magazine_indian island Vs. 5 685 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend nxA _ G w & POMINEFYL RLi 7VI fl {1' riiiGYY All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) .4 Naval Magazine Indian Island - Coordination Issues Law Enforcement and Fire: NAVMAG II has internal security and fire department to respond to on -base incidents. Personnel work closely with Jefferson County authorities to facilitate mutual understanding of the hazards on the naval base and conduct joint drills with local agencies at least semi-annually. Depending on its nature, a hazardous material incident could involve local and state agency response and support, affecting communities close to the base. No large quantities of regulated hazardous material are stored or used at NAVMAG II and the base environmental department ensures all regulated hazardous waste is removed from the facility within 90 days as prescribed by the Washington State Department of Ecology permit. Vs. 5 686 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Washington Department of Ecology22 The Washington State Department of Ecology has ten programs to oversee and preserve the quality of Washington life. Each has its own mission statement: AIR QUALITY Mission: To protect, preserve, and enhance the air quality of Washington to safeguard public health and the environment and support high quality of life for current and future generations. ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT Mission: To measure, assess, and communicate environmental conditions in Washington State. HAZARDOUS WASTE AND TOXICS REDUCTION Mission: To foster sustainability, prevent pollution and promote safe waste management. NUCLEAR WASTE Mission: To lead the effective and efficient cleanup of the U.S. Department of Energy's Hanford Site, ensure sound management of mixed hazardous wastes in Washington, and protect the state's air, water, and land at and adjacent to the Hanford Site. SHORELANDS AND ENVIRONMENTAL ASSISTANCE Mission: To work in partnership with communities to support healthy watersheds and promote statewide environmental interests. Includes Coastal Zone Management (CZM), Federal Permitting (including 401 Water Quality Certification), Floodplain Management, Ocean Management, Padilla Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve, Shoreline Management, State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA), Washington Conservation Corps (WCC), and Wetlands. SPILL PREVENTION, PREPAREDNESS, AND RESPONSE Mission: To protect Washington's environment, public health, and safety through a comprehensive spill prevention, preparedness, and response program. TOXICS CLEANUP Mission: To protect human health and the environment for the people of Washington by preventing, reducing, or eliminating exposure to contamination to support the development of environmentally and economically sustainable communities. (Includes Sediment Management and Underground Storage Tanks.) WASTE 2 RESOURCES Mission: To reduce the amount and the effects of wastes generated in Washington State. Includes the Industrial Section.

Also see the Office of the Columbia River. WA Department of Ecology - Coordination Issues Overlapping Jurisdictions: In the course of a significant event, multiple jurisdictions may have to be notified. For example, a significant oil spill on a body of water requires notification of the Washington Department of Ecology and possibly the USCG, depending on what body of water it is. Vs. 5 688 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife 23 The Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife's mandate is to protect and enhance fish and wildlife and their habitats and provide sustainable, fish and wildlife related recreational and commercial opportunities. RCW Title 77 defines the Department's regulatory authority over the management of species (e.g., hunting and fishing rules, scientific collection permits, bald eagle management). The Department's Hydraulic Project Approval program regulates construction or performance of work that will use, divert, obstruct, or change the natural flow or bed of any of the salt or freshwaters of the state. The Department also provides technical assistance, science, and support to local governments and state agencies that share responsibility for fish and wildlife habitat protection and recovery. This includes, but is not limited to, work with city and county governments under the Growth Management Act and Shoreline Management Act related to planning, designation and protection of fish and wildlife habitat; assistance to local groups implementing salmon recovery plans; review of development proposals with potential habitat impacts; and review of timber harvest planning and forest practices. At the local level, WDFW's advisory role in protecting fish and wildlife habitat owned by private citizens is set forth in GMA, State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) and the Shoreline Management Act. Through these legislative acts, WDFW may provide comments on the accuracy of environmental documents and offer recommendations to reduce impacts of development on wildlife habitat. It is up to the city or county government to incorporate these comments and recommendations in their permits and planning activities, and WDFW's counsel may be modified or rejected by the local government. Because over half of the land base in Washington State is privately owned, decisions made by local governments regarding land use planning and development, including the management of potential natural hazards, significantly affect fish and wildlife and their habitats. For that reason, WDFW is a coordinating entity with expertise to lend to local planning. Fish and Wildlife - Coordination Issues Flood, Severe Local Weather and Ecologically Sensitive Areas: WDFW coordinates with the Jefferson County Public Works and special districts and jurisdictions which need to take fish and wildlife resources into account when proposing flood control and related mitigation activities. An example is the Duckabush and Dosewallips Comprehensive Flood Hazard Management Plan, involving WDFW, Jefferson County Public Works, and other local, state, federal, and tribal entities. " http://wdfw.wa.gov/ Vs. 5 689 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Washington Department of Natural Resources24 In 1957, the legislature created the Department of Natural Resources (DNR) to manage state trust lands for the people of Washington. Under the elected leadership of the Commissioner of Public Lands, DNR manages seven specific trusts to generate revenue and preserve forests, water, and habitat. DNR now manages 5.6 million acres of forest, range, agricultural, aquatic, and commercial lands for more than $200 million in annual financial benefit for public schools, state institutions, and county services. Our mission: In partnership with citizens and governments, the Washington State DNR provides innovative leadership and expertise to ensure environmental protection, public safety, perpetual funding for schools and communities, and a rich quality of life. In today's firefighting in rural and forested areas of the state, traditional boundaries between those fighting wildfires and those battling structural fires give way to the common need to help one another. The Department of Natural Resources has established programs to assist Fire Protection Districts. • Federal Excess Property Program • State Surplus Sales • Combined Fire District Assistance Grants Maintaining the health and vitality of Washington forest land is a serious issue. Each year, in Eastern Washington, 13 percent of the forest's potential annual growth is lost to diseases. More than 1,000 earthquakes occur in the state annually. Washington has a record of at least 20 damaging earthquakes during the past 125 years. Vnlcnnnes The Pacific Coast of Washington is at risk from tsunamis. Coastal or submarine landslides or volcanism can cause these destructive waves, but large submarine earthquakes most commonly cause them. Department of Natural Resources - Coordination Issues Interoperability: DNR and the Jefferson County and Port Townsend fire districts frequently support each other on wildland fires. A DNR representative attends the East Jefferson County Chiefs Association meetings to facilitate cooperation at policy levels. Interoperability of equipment and procedures has been a key issue that the DNR and fire districts are working on to improve both the capabilities and the safety of the firefighter in the field. I hitt://www.dnr.wa.aov/ Vs. 5 690 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Washington State Department of Transportation 25 (WSDOT) The Washington State Department of Transportation is the steward of a multimodal transportation system and responsible for ensuring that people and goods move safely and efficiently. In addition to building, maintaining, and operating the state highway system, WSDOT is responsible for the state ferry system, and works in partnership with others to maintain and improve local roads, railroads and airports, as well as to support alternatives to driving, such as public transportation, bicycles and pedestrian programs. Mission Statement The mission of WSDOT is to keep people and business moving by operating and improving the state's transportation systems vital to our taxpayers and communities. WSDOT management principles: Leadership We are committed that WSDOT provide strategic vision and leadership for our state's transportation needs. Delivery and Accountability We shall manage the resources taxpayers and the legislature entrusted to us for the highest possible return on value. We shall be disciplined in our use of both time and money. We shall account for our achievements, our shortcomings and our challenges to citizens, to elected officials, and to other public agencies. Business Practices We shall encourage progressive business management practices in delivering cost effective and efficient transportation services. Our quest for short-term cost savings and business process improvement shall be balanced by the long term need to preserve and improve the state's transportation systems through sound fiscal planning and asset management. Safety Concern for the health and safety of the people who use and work on our transportation facilities shall be a paramount value in every area of our business. Environmental Responsibility Our work shall incorporate the principles of environmental protection and stewardship into the day- to-day operations of the department as well as the on-going development of the state's transportation facilities. Excellence and Integrity " hlt2://www.wsdot.wa.gov Vs. 5 691 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Our employees shall work in a culture of workplace excellence and diversity that encourages creativity and personal responsibility, values teamwork, and always respects the contributions of one another and of those with whom we do business. We shall adhere to the highest standards of courtesy, integrity and ethical conduct. We shall encourage and recognize our employees' professionalism and their career growth. Communications We shall stress the importance of sharing clear, concise and timely information with WSDOT employees, elected officials, community leaders, businesses, citizens and taxpayers, others in the transportation community, with the press and other media. We shall strive for the effectiveness of all our employees in meeting WSDOT's communications standards. Department of Transportation - Coordination Issues Survivability of Transportation to Jefferson County: Jefferson County is on a peninsula, but its primary supply routes make it feel like an island: two of the three major transportation links, the Ferry System and the Hood Canal Bridge, cross water. Both the ferry system and the Hood Canal Bridge are susceptible to severe winter storms, tsunami, and earthquakes. The photo below shows the 1973 storm that destroyed a section of the Hood Canal Bridge. An earthquake — tsunami combination could take out all of the major transportation routes into Jefferson County, resulting in the County needing to be self-sufficient for many days, and then to be supplemented by emergency transportation assistance. Vs. 5 692 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Washington Military Department Emergency Management Division 26 The mission of the Washington Military Department's Emergency Management Division (EMD) is to minimize the impact of emergencies and disasters on the people, property, environment, and economy of Washington State. The Division notifies and alerts state agencies and local governments of impending emergencies and disasters. During state emergencies, EMD manages the State Emergency Operations Center located on Camp Murray, near Tacoma, and coordinates the response to ensure help is provided to those who need it quickly and effectively. The EOC is designated as the central location for information gathering, disaster analysis, and response coordination. Other state agencies with emergency roles may come to the EOC to help coordinate the state response. Federal government agencies, along with state and local volunteer organizations, also may provide representatives. At the EOC, information gathered is used by executives to make decisions concerning emergency actions and to identify and prioritize the use of state resources needed to respond to the emergency. The EOC may issue emergency warnings or disseminate critical information and instructions to government personnel and the public who may need to take emergency protective actions. Emergency Management Division - Coordination Issues Activation Protocols: The Jefferson County Emergency Operations Center has a policy of "leaning forward" when events are predictable, e.g a severe windstorm predicted a day ahead of time. It will activate before the storm hits with an appropriate level of staffing based on weather predictions. In the past, at times like this, the State EOC is manned by a Duty Watch Officer (DWO). When a storm or other event hits multiple counties, the response time from the State EOC may be impacted between the time the DWO starts handling multiple requests and the time additional staffing can be mustered to deal with a growing event. WebEOC Availability: Jefferson County is becoming adept at using WebEOC, particularly to facilitate communications when under Area Command. During the windstorm event named locally by JCDEM as "16 Charlie", WebEOC was taken off line by the State EOC so that it would not be corrupted while the change -over was made to emergency power. This impacted Jefferson County's ability to document, disseminate and coordinate operations among fire districts and the PUD under Area Command. Logistics Coordination: There are Indian tribes within Jefferson County that have the legal right to go straight to the State for logistics. In the past, there have been instances when resources requests were made directly to the State, but the tribe called Jefferson County to fmd out where their stuff was. The 16 hit2:Hmil.wa.gov/emergency-management-division/emd-about-us Vs. 5 693 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) WebEOC Logistics page is supposed to allow the County to track resource orders, but we have to know about them before we will track them Logistics Bottleneck: During a major event, it is likely that the State EOC Logistics person will be overwhelmed by requests from multiple jurisdictions. This has the potential to create significant bottlenecks at a critical time. Vs. 5 694 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Washington State Patro127 The WSP is a professional law enforcement agency made up of dedicated professionals who work hard to improve the quality of life of our citizens and prevent the unnecessary loss of life on a daily basis. We will continue to work aggressively to enforce laws around the state while protecting the people of Washington from injury and grief. The 600 or so troopers patrolling the highways every day are the most visible part of this agency, but there are also over 1,000 civilian employees who are less visible and just as important. They include those who work for the State Fire Marshal to help prevent fires in the home or workplace; those who work as technicians and scientists in our crime labs processing DNA samples to help prosecute criminal cases; and they include investigative support staff who maintain our criminal records and databases so that sex offenders don't end up working with children. Keeping our state safe is a huge job, even with our commissioned and civilian staff. That is why we routinely partner with other law enforcement, traffic safety, and criminal justice agencies to provide the highest quality of service to the citizens of this state. Locally, approximately 18 troopers and 2 sergeants are assigned across the North Olympic Peninsula to cover all of Jefferson and Clallam Counties with a detachment office along SR 101 just east of Port Angeles. Washington State Patrol - Coordination Issues Communications Interoperability: Communications is a significant challenge in the Olympic Peninsula because of geographical considerations with the rugged Olympic Mountains and the Strait of Juan de Fuca. Dealing with a host of agencies all working on different radio platforms continues to hamper effective multi -agency response to incidents. WSP Staffing: During a major event, the WSP will have a significant role in maintaining the viability of State Highways. Having sufficient staff to provide liaison with county emergency departments and the State while keeping control of the State highway system will be of paramount importance. Yet, due to a combination of economic and sociologic issues, it is very difficult to recruit officers for the WSP in 2016. This has the potential to severely hamper response and recovery during regional disaster events requiring a police presence. WSP Response Time: Jefferson County and the City of Port Townsend do not have the resources to maintain a "full function" police department or sheriffs office. Thus, neither has a crime lab or bomb squad or an armored vehicle, etc. As a result, in a major law incident that requires a more esoteric response, they rely on the resources of the WSP. In 2016, for example, a school worker found an old pipe bomb in his school building and carried it to the police station in Port Townsend. This resulted in the evacuation of the police station and the other agencies resident in the building used by the PTPD, e.g. the food bank, the Red Cross, and KPTZ FM radio. The city police called in the WSP Bomb Squad to take possession of the pipe bomb and detonate 27 httn://www.wsn.wa.aov/ Vs. 5 695 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) it — but even with a team ready -to -go, it takes the bomb squad 2 — 3 hours to get to Port Townsend from its home base. There is no good fix for this. It is not economically feasible to have a bomb squad, etc. stationed in every town and city that could have a problem. In a really extreme situation, a small unit such as the bomb squad could be airlifted to the incident by helicopter — but even this is expensive and would not always be a viable solution. The best that can be done is to have good communications among agencies and established contingency plans for rapid deployment of needed assets during a major incident. For example, the State Ferry System is considered part of Washington's highway system. In an incident, such as a bomb found on board while at the Port Townsend dock, both the WSP and the USCG could have overlapping jurisdiction, along with coordination needed with the city police. It is best to have easily recognized scenarios preplanned for, rather than attempting to establish responsibilities at the time of the incident.

Natural hazard mitigation is the development and implementation of activities designed to reduce or eliminate losses resulting from natural hazards. Why develop a natural hazards mitigation strategy? Developing a mitigation strategy for Jefferson County completes the process of planning that began with the Jefferson County Hazard Identification and Vulnerability Assessment (HIVA). This report serves to establish a foundation for coordination and collaboration among local agencies, jurisdictions, and the citizens of Jefferson County in addition to providing a basis for identifying mitigation strategies and future mitigation projects as a means to assist in meeting the requirements of various federal assistance programs. The risingcostof respondingto and recoveringfrom natural disasters has led to an increased interest in identifying effective ways to reduce the vulnerability to natural hazards and the disasters these hazards can create. Natural hazard mitigation plans assist communities in identifying the hazards that could impactthem, determiningthe vulnerability of the community to these hazards, and identifying mitigation strategies to prevent or reduce the impacts these hazards pose to the community through a coordinated, multi -jurisdictional approach. To encourage such activity, Congress passed the Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000. The Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000 is intended to facilitate cooperation between state and local authorities, prompting them to work together. It encourages and rewards local and state pre- disasterplanning and promotes sustainability as a strategy for disaster resistance. To implement the new Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000 requirements, the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) at 44 CFR Parts 201 and 206, establish planning and funding criteria for state and local governments. The primary purpose of hazard mitigation is to identify community policies, actions, and tools for implementation over the long term thatwill result in a reduction in risk and potential for future losses community -wide. This is accomplished by using a systematic process of learning about the hazards that can affect the community, setting clear goals, identifying appropriate actions, following through with an effective mitigation strategy, and keeping the plan current. What are the benefits of hazard mitigation? • Save lives and property — communities can save lives and reduce property damage from natural hazards through mitigation actions, such as moving families and their homes out of Vs. 5 737 September 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) harm's way or by limiting development and/or regulating the type of construction or structures allowed in certain areas. • Reduce vulnerability to future hazards— by having a mitigation strategy in place, communities are better prepared to take the proper steps that will permanently reduce the risk of future losses. • Facilitate post -disaster funding — by identifying mitigation strategies and projects before the next disaster, Jefferson County communities will be in a better position to obtain post -disaster funding because much of the background work necessary for funding assistance will already be in place. Who does the natural hazards mitigation plan benefit? The Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan was developed, written, and adopted asamulti jurisdictional natural hazards mitigation plan forthe benefit of the incorporated municipalities, various special purpose districts, and the unincorporated rural areas of Jefferson County. It is anticipated that a large nurnber ofcounty special purpose districts will also adopt this plan in order to benefit from future hazard mitigation funding. The information contained in this plan is applicable countywide and serves to provide the fiamework for natural hazard mitigation within Jefferson County. Much has already been gained in simply developing this plan and establishing the basic mitigation strategies that have been incorporated into this document. It is hoped that the spirit of inter jurisdictional cooperation that has begun with this planning effort will continue in the years to come thereby providing further benefits to all jurisdictions and agencies within the county as well as the citizens these jurisdictions and agency serve. Furthermore, the Plan was developed following the process set forth in the Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000 as well as the requirements of the National Flood Insurance Program Community Rating System. By doing so, it is anticipated that the citizens living in those jurisdictions within Jefferson County that participate in the Community Rating System could possibly further benefit from this plan through an additional decrease in their flood insurance premiums. What is it going to cost me? The writing of the Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan was funded by a combination of a grant from FEMA and matching funds from the City of Port Townsend. There will be some relatively minor costs incurred in staff time to gather the information to go into the Plan for your own district. Costs of the mitigation activities, themselves, belong to those jurisdictions and special districts that initiate them, and are funded as the originating entity deems most appropriate, whether by tax revenues, bonds, grants or loans.

These relate only to the two primary jurisdictions, Jefferson County and the City of Port Townsend, and are provided solely to meet the requirement that the jurisdictions demonstrate that the public had an opportunity to participate in the development of the Plan. "The ability to deal with a crisis is largely dependent on the structures and relationships that have been developed before the emergency." Bob Hamlin, Program Manager, Jefferson County Department of Emergency Management. Public input to large generalized plans such as the Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan is generally limited to people with special interests. Thus, we involved the public via JPREP meetings, online access to the Plan as it was in the process of being developed, and through "piggy -backing" onto other meetings, such as local presentations of the Draft FEMA FIRMS. JPREP is the acronym for "Jefferson County - Port Townsend Regional Emergency Preparedness Network", which consists of community leaders, stakeholders, and citizens interested in the preparedness of the region and a chance to network with the people they will be working with during an emergency. This is somewhat "preaching to the choir", but we do get genuine ideas and feedback from those participating. Much of the feedback comes from the Neighborhood Preparedness (NPREP) groups that have been organized since the last Hazard Mitigation Plan. Jefferson County and the City of Port Townsend have over 123 neighborhoods that have active Neighborhood Emergency Groups that contribute to the attitudes for survival in the County. In order to better involve the public in the planning process, the Natural Hazards Mitigation Steering Committee advertised and conducted public meetings as part of the Board and/or council meetings in which resolutions were passed relating to the Plan. Generally, to adopt a resolution requires two meetings, a reading and the adoption, so there is opportunity for the word to get out and for commentators to be present at one of the meetings. All such meetings fall under Washington's Open Public Meetings Act (RCW 42.30) and thus assure that the appropriate notifications, Agendas, etc. are published. Passing of a resolution or inclusion of the Board minutes provides proof that all legal requirements were met. We have found that this makes it easier for the public to attend because the facilities and time are generally known, and it is easier for individuals to plan their schedules around these meetings. This effort is in addition to the many public meetings and workshops held by stakeholders to solicit input into the development of their own planning documents, such as Jefferson County's Comprehensive Plan, which provided much of the material for the over-all Plan.

Chambers Vs. 5 776 November 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Item 2: Hazard Mitigation Plan Update Website In 2004 and 2009, public meetings drew few if any interested citizens. At one meeting, there was one person whose personal mission is to attend all city meetings as a self -elected government oversite committee, but that is it. Since 2009, Jefferson County and the City of Port Townsend have changed the way they access the public. City Council meetings are televised and are also put online for the public to access later. There are electronic blogs for citizens to use to send public messages to city staff, and a public forum on the City website. There has also been the development and evolution of the Neighborhood Emergency groups — citizens that take their survival in an area known to have significant natural hazards very seriously indeed. These are the members of the public that are most likely to take the time and interest in reviewing an admittedly dry document and make suggestions and enhancements, both to the document and to the strategies therein. Given the above, we provided a Plan Update Website, www.jprephazmitplan.org, in which the public could access as we developed the Plan and provide input, both as to editing content and suggesting strategies and concerns that the stakeholders may not have addressed. This has been very successful compared to previous years' efforts. As of January 22, 2016, we had 1,342 views, as opposed to three or four attendees at individual meetings. Seven hundred views have been on the page that contains the 2016 draft of the Plan. Out of that, ten to fifteen percent are caused by the web master making changes and editing the site. We have received nearly a dozen good ideas and editorial comments that have been used in improving the Plan. Figures F-1 shows the Home page of the website. Since the topic itself is fairly routine and dry, we have periodically inserted a modicum of humor. The home page has an old photo that has deliberately been mislabeled as a protective suit for some type of hazard. All of the hazards listed have been significant in the media or locally during the period that this iteration of the Plan has been in development. The website is intended to provide a mechanism for the general public to review and suggest improvements to the Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan (Plan) that is due for its mandatory 5 -year update. The current plan, (Rev. 2009), was good until June 6, 2015, at which time, we must have a FEMA approved (Rev. 2016) in place for participating jurisdictions to be eligible to apply for Hazard Mitigation grants. Due to circumstances beyond our control, the deadline passed. The Plan is still good for the participants to use in guiding their own mitigation efforts, but an updated Plan must be in place to be awarded hazard mitigation grants. This does not apply to Public Assistance resulting from disasters. Viewing The Plan is a public document; therefore, the content of this website is public, too. In general, anyone can look at any pages of the website without signing in. Thus, anyone can view the 2009 Plan or the 2016 Revised Plan as it is being developed. Public input is important to the Plan, so we will keep a count of the number of people viewing the site, but will not collect any personal information unless the viewer decides to submit comments — and that will be only to offer appropriate credit for ideas and contributions. Vs. 5 777 November 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) To comment directly about the development of the 2016 Plan, the reader must register and login. This allows him/her to put comments into the "Comments" dialog at the bottom of the "Draft 2016 Plan" page. (See Figure F-2.) An entry indicating that someone made a fresh comment will appear in the "Recent Comments" dialog box. Clicking on any entry in that dialog will take the reader directly to the associated comment. We will collect contact information so that we can document public participation. The reason for this is that FEMA is very concerned that the public has an opportunity to comment on the Plan. In the past, we have had public meetings where nobody showed up. Now, however, we have a robust Neighborhood Emergency Group network and the ability to interact through the Internet. Therefore, we will collect the names of the people helping to critique the Plan and give them appropriate credit in the Plan, itself. No contact information will be published for contributors so that they will not be subject to unwanted contacts from people who glean such information from public documents. The work contact information of public figures is included if their contact information is already in the public domain. The Plan is a public document and CD versions of the 2009 Plan are available for viewing at the public libraries. 2016 Draft Plan This is a PDF version of the 2016 Draft Plan as it is evolving. It started as the 2009 Plan and was modified as we worked on updating the Plan. There is a "comments" box at the bottom of the index page that allows someone to enter comments regarding the Plan. Those comments will end up in the "comments blog", and will be reviewed and acted on, as appropriate. Commentators will be given credit within the Plan, which does have a section that contains public input. The comments are "moderated" before being allowed to post, so that profanity and non -relevant comments from trolls will be excluded. This is a serious work and we hope for and expect considered ideas from motivated public participants. Grants The "Grants" page provides an overview of the grant programs that become accessible to the Plan adoptees for the purpose of hazard mitigation.

She arrived at 6:48 p.m. CHANGES TO THE AGENDA Discussion of the Blue Star Banner Program under Unfinished Business was postponed until the arrival of Ms. Nelson. COMMENTS FROM THE PUBLIC Vs. 5 785 November 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) There were no public comments regarding consent agenda items not on the agenda. CONSENT AGENDA Approval of Bills, Claims and Warrants Vouchers 123299 through 123377 in the amount of $238,241.88 Vouchers 123387 through 123507 in the amount of $1,009,982.41 Electronic Funds Transfers in the amount of $22,538.01 Approval of Minutes: April 28, 2014 and May 5, 2014 Resolution 14-023 Designating the City Manager as Applicant Agent for the State of Washington Pre -Disaster Mitigation Grant Program Applications Ms. Stinson noted that the year stated in the first paragraph of Page 5 of the minutes of April 28th should be changed from 2105 to 2015. City Manager David Timmons identified the Pre -Disaster Mitigation Grant Program resolution as a chance to update the City's application and celebrate the program's achievements. Ms. Adams noted that on Page 4 of the minutes of May 5, the phrase "leaving a kiosk" should be changed to "having a kiosk." Motion: Deborah Stinson moved to approve the consent agenda with the changes identified in the minutes of April 28, 2014, and May 5, 2014. Pamela Adams seconded. Vote: motion carried unanimously, 6-0 by voice vote. Vs. 5 786 November 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) UNFINISHED BUSINESS The Unfinished Business discussion on the Blue Star Banner Project was postponed until Ms. Nelson arrived later in the meeting. NEW BUSINESS Resolution 14-024 Amending the Travel Policy of the Personnel Policies Manual Mr. Timmons explained that this resolution was proposed to remedy conflict between current City policy and the Office of Financial Management (OFM) travel policy. Previously proposed changes were redundant and contradictive. All that was needed was to eliminate Attachment B of the City's Personnel Policies Manual. A Council travel policy will be addressed separately in the future. In response to Mr. Gray's questions, Mr. Timmons informed Council that the City will be developing a travel authorization form. Mr. Gray expressed concern about a lack of an explicit travel policy for councilmembers. Mr. Watts explained that the standing practice for authorizing councilmember travel was legitimate. Ms. Sandoval noted that councilmember travel is arranged by City staff. Ms. Nelson arrived at the meeting at 6:48 p.m. In response to Mr. Gray, Mr. Timmons advised council that City staff will receive training from the State on the OFM policies. Public Comment: Todd Wexman informed Council that Mr. Timmons has traveled to several ICMA conferences paid for by the City. Steve Oakford noted that travel is necessary part of work. The policy should be applied equally to employees and elected officials. Vs. 5 787 November 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Patrick Moore requested 20 minutes to speak but the extra time was not granted by Council. He expressed concern that the proposed revisions have not been through committee. Mr. Moore provided examples of Mr. Timmons travel receipts. Mr. Timmons explained that filing a formal complaint with the Council is the proper method to address concerns about employee travel. Mr. Timmons, Mr. King and Ms. Sandoval expressed support for international travel for employee development. Travel opportunities are considered based on the expected return on the City's investment. Ms. Nelson found that the revisions drafted by the Finance and Budget Committee were more user friendly than incorporating the entire OFM policy, but added that she would support the revision as proposed. Mr. Timmons and Mr. King responded that there were too many inconsistencies with the previous revision drafts. Mr. Timmons acknowledged that they were trading some user-friendliness for a more comprehensive policy. Mr. Gray expressed concern over public perception of employee travel. Mr. Watts reminded the Council that they have already resolved to pre -approve the City Manager's out-of-state travel. He sees the proposed revision as a simpler method of streamlining the travel policy. OFM's policy may not be as clear, but at least it is a standard that can be applied. In response to Ms. Robinson's questions, he clarified that the revision would apply to the personnel policy and therefore only to City employees, not elected officials. A travel policy for Council will be brought forward at a later date. Ms. Stinson agreed that it made sense to handle travel differently for staff and Council. She sees a need to get a return on money invested in travel. Spending too many staff hours dealing with travel negatively effects that return on investment. Mr. Gray wants to see better documentation of travel arrangements. Mr. Timmons explained the meal policies to Ms. Nelson. Employees will designate their travel status as per diem or actual expense travel before departing. Vs. 5 788 November 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Ms. Adams believes the proposed clarification is a good step forward and stressed increased training on the policy. Ms. Sandoval clarified that the city has a policy in place and this proposal is simply a revision to the existing policy. In response to questions about budget training opportunities, Mr. Timmons related that the City offered budget training through the University of Washington at over $2000 a few years ago. He sees a need for more budget training opportunities. Ms. Sandoval described her travel to California to see their affordable artist housing program on her own money. They had to adapt to the recession and she was able to learn from their experience. She and Mr. King believe frequent travel to Olympia to meet with legislators opened up opportunities for economic stimulus. Motion: Catharine Robinson moved to approve Resolution 14-024 Amending the Travel Policy of the Personnel Policies Manual. Robert Gray seconded. Vote: motion carried unanimously, 7-0 by voice vote. • Non -relevant items removed for brevity. krh ADJOURN The meeting adjourned at 9:26 p.m. Attest: Pamela Kolacy, MMC City Clerk Vs. 5 789 November 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend Vs. 5 All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Item 5: City of Port Townsend Resolution 14-023 Resalw,on 14-023 RESOLUTION NO. 14-023 A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PORT TiIWNSEND, WASHINGTON, DESIGNATING THE CITY MANAGER AS APPLICANT AGENT FOR THE STATE OF WASHINGTON PRF: -DISASTER MITIGATION GRANT PROGRAM APPLICATIONS WHEREAS, the City of Port Townsend desires to apply for grants through the State of Washington Hazard Mitigation Grant Programs; and WHEREAS, all grant applications must have Council approval; and WHEREAS, it is a requirement of this grant program to designate an applicant agent and an alternate; and WF1ERF.AS, the City Manager is the customary designated signature for contract, agrccments and applications.

In doing so, and after FEMA approves the Plan.„ participating organizations become eligible to compete for Hazard Mitigation grants to irnplernent their Plans by adoptingthe Plan. In the past, the City has received such grants to seisniically retrofit the Library, the police station (Cotton wilding), the water distribution system at City Lake, the downtown tunnel lids, and to rebuild the fire station at Harrison and Lawrence Streets. The scope of the 2016 Plan includes both natural and nian-made hazards, and thus, is considered an All -Hazards Plan. The major natural hazards to be revised are Damaging Winds, Draught, Earthquake, Flood, Landslides, Public Health Emergencies, Tsunami, Wildfire, and Winter Storms. Significant nian-niade hazardsto be updated are 9-1-1 Outages, bang -term Power Outages, Terrorism, and Water Shortage. This year we are adding an introduction addressing Climate Change and adding a section on climate change to each hazard that can be directly affected by it. Public input is a requisite for the Plan to be approved by FEIVIA. The existing 2W9 Plan and a first draft of the 2016 Plan that is still a work in progress are available at 1'"-rw,irarePhazmitnlan.ar , You can view the Plan as it is developed and make comments about forniat, editing, etc. Suggestions for mitigation strategies will be included in the Plan and your name as a contributor. you must register to leave comments and it needs to be vetted the first time so that we can keep the site from being spammed. We will cheek the site daily to vet new comments and collect ideas that we can use in the Plan. The City library has a CID of the 2009 Plan in their reference areas.

For instance, Commissioner Phil Johnson and I had the opportunity to address 25 excited 4th - 8th grade students. at Blue Heron as they became Climate Ambassadors as part of Plant for the Planet. PFTP is an inter- national organization, so far impacting 193 countries, started by 9 -year-old Felix Finkbeiner in 2007 after a climate change presentation in his classroom_ Our students have now joined a group of 33,000 Climate Ambassadors who are working to make their world healthy and sustainable_ The new Ambassadors gave an impressive presentation to their parents after a day of engaging activities involving tree -planting basics, information on climate science and climate justice, and how to engage others in making a difference_ Ongoing projects will be planned and im- plemented by the students, but not before they got their `Stop Talking, Start Planting" photo op with an elect- ed local official. That's me with sixth grader Jeannette Patric. Looks like now is the time to plant those trees that last year's drought discouraged_ The topic surfaced again as we work with Jefferson County's Department of Emergency Management (DEM) to update our Hazard Mitigation Plan. The findings from the recently published Climate Change Prepared- ness Plan for the North Olympic Peninsula (see www.noprcd.ora)will be included along with all other data coming from the various agencies across Jefferson County_ The first draft of the Hazard Mitigation Plan is currently under review and you can provide input at www.jprephazmitplan.org . Speaking of the DEM, have you heard about the upcoming `Cascadia Rising 2016 Exercise'? This national level drill provides federal, state and local organizations the opportunity to test a coordinated response to a worst-case scenario of a 9.0 earthquake off the northwest coast_ The City of Port Townsend is participating along with the multiple agencies coordinated by the Department of Emergency Management. The exercise will take place June 6 -10. The most visible part of the exercise in our community wild be the possible increased Navy presence as they exercise at Indian Island to test their capability to deliver aid and resources. The bulk of the local exercise will have the Incident Management Team testing alternative com- munication tools, inter -agency coordination, logistics planning and much more - all while working from tents since the scenario assumes our Emergency Operations Center is inaccessible. You can learn more by read- ing the very informative newsletters that are being posted on the DEM website — www.jeffcoeoc.om1current. While on that page, also check out the locally produced document, Think Plan Do Repeat, to help you pre- pare your own household and/or neighborhood for any emergency. None of what I have mentioned here happens without a robust and engaged core of volunteers_ The City of Port Townsend benefits from our own bounty of volunteers who contribute through our various advisory boards a nd commissions. I'm enjoying the opportunity to meet with each of these boards to craft new oper- ating procedures that can keep them at their most effective while also adhering to the changing regulatory landscape. Each board is enthusiastic about their mission and all have mentioned they always welcome the fresh perspective of new participants. Please read the related article elsewhere in this newsletter to Team more about what they do and consider contributing your own unique skills and insights. Finally, the council retreat mentioned in earlier newsletters has been scheduled for April 25_ Please watch the newspapers or check our home page at www.cityofPLus for details as the date approaches.

The Local 20/20 organization is a local umbrella organization for people actively participating in the well-being of the community. It has multiple Action Groups, including the Neighborhood Preparedness (NPREP) Action Group. The main focus of the NPREP Action Group is to help neighbors organize so that they may work together when a disaster occurs, thereby enhancing the safety and comfort of all in such difficult times. Working with the Jefferson County Department of Emergency Management (DEM), this effort has facilitated the self -organization of well over 100 neighborhoods since 2006. Having the "Request for Input" in the Local 20/20 Newsletter puts the request directly in front of those people in the NPREP Action Group that have shown a particular interest in the topics addressed in the Hazard Mitigation Plan. It is preaching to the choir — and may be one of the reasons that the Plan website received over 1,000 views. The highlighted request was run from 06/27/2016 to 11/01/2016.

"Bob" Hamlin, Program Manager FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Ken Horvath 360-531-3054 (NOT FOR PUBLICATION) "Leadership through Partnership" LAST CHANCE FOR PUBLIC INPUT TO THE COUNTYXITY HAZARD MITIGATION PLAN PORT HADLOCK—Jefferson County and the City of Port Townsend seek public input for the 2016 update of the Jefferson County City of Port Townsend Hazard Mitigation Plan. Version 4 of the Plan is now online at www jprephazmitplan.org for public review and comments. This version has everything except the section on "Public Input," which is under construction now. The County, City and sixteen Special Districts are participating in the Plan, including JeffCom 9-1-1, all fire departments, all school districts, the PUD, the County Library District, the Hospital District, and the Port of Port Townsend. The purpose of the plan is to provide a structured approach so that participating organizations can document their strategic plans for improving their resiliency prior to a disaster occurring. In doing so, and after FEMA approves the plan, participating organizations become eligible to compete for Hazard Mitigation grants to implement their plans by adopting the plan. In the past, the City has received such grants to seismically retrofit the library, the police station (Cotton Building), the water distribution system at City Lake, the downtown tunnel lids, and to rebuild the fire station at Harrison and Lawrence Streets. The scope of the 2016 Plan includes both natural and man-made hazards, and thus, is considered an All - Hazards Plan. The major natural hazards revisions are to Damaging Winds, Drought, Earthquake, Flood, Landslides, Public Health Emergencies, Tsunami, Wildfire, and Winter Storms. Significant man-made hazards to be updated are long-term Power Outages, Terrorism, and Water Shortage. This year, we are adding a subsection addressing Climate Change and adding a piece on climate change to each hazard that can be directly affected by it. Public input is a requisite for the plan to be approved by FEMA. You can view the plan as it is developed and make comments about content, format, editing, etc. Suggestions for mitigation strategies or enhancements to the Plan will be accepted through November 30' to guarantee review for inclusion in the Plan. Vs. 5 813 November 2016 Jefferson County — City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) You must register to leave comments and it needs to be vetted the first time so that we can keep the site from being spammed. We will check the site daily to vet new comments and collect ideas that we can use in the plan. The City library has a CD of the 2009 Plan in their reference areas.

However, peaceful and scenic benefits pale when considering challenges of providing emergency services to the more than 7.50 homes. Connected by a single 50+ year old bridge which also carries all utilities of water, power and communications, the separation poses the threat of not only being cut-off from help, but potentially not beirng able to communicate that help is needed. Cell phone coverage of the island is less than 50% meaning that calling for help in such a circumstance is severely limited. Awindstorm two years ago provided real demonstration of this potential by downing power, phone and cable lines onthe mainland side of the bridgeforseveral days and blocking the sole access road for a number of hours due to a downed tree. Simply stated, it is highly likely that in the event of a severe storm, or earthquake and subsequent tsunami, Marrowstone Island residents will be unreachable for an extended period of time. Therefore, specific consideration should be given to Marrowstone Island when building the Jefferson County—City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan. Marrowstone Island has responded to this challenge for many years by taking local initiative to provide cin -island services. Residents raised money and purchased their own ambulance 3C+ years ago and established trained volunteer emergency medical and firefighter personnel. They built a small 'fire station" to house the ambulance and later, a water tanker truck. More recently they have established a 2 -way radio network of ham and FRS radio equipped residents to enable contact with the 911 emergency dispatch center on the mainland. Further, there is an active emergency preparedness committee on the island to help residents be individually prepared to help themselves and their immediate neighbors. The "fire static n" on Marrowstone Island was transferred to Chimacum Fire Departmentin 1990 and later absorbed by East Jefferson Fire and Rescue Department (EJFR), However, with primary response provided by this station located on the mainland, the Marrowstone station has been minimally maintained and is not staffed. Provision of emergency services following a majo" natural disaster may be dependent on resources located on the island or brought to the isla-d by boat. There have been discussions with EJFR regarding upgrading the Marrowstone Station and providing resident staff and equipment at least during the summer months whenthere is an influx of touriststo Fort FlaglerState Park. There is strong interest by all parties, but funding has not allowed realization of this much needed improvement. Marrowstone Island requests inclusion of a commitmentfor upgrade to the island fire station, and disaster preparations such as radia communications, water, food and medical supplies, when finalizing the Jefferson County Natural Disaster Hazard Mitigation Plan.

This Plan Review Tool is consistent with the Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000 (P.L. 106-390), enacted October 30, 2000 and 44 CFR Part 201 Mitigation Planning, Interim Final Rule (the Rule), published February 26, 2002. The crosswalks are placed here to assist the reviewer in determining that the plan meets the requirements of the above legislation, and to provide a tool for the planners to use in continuously evaluating and improving the plan and, more importantly, using the plan to effect changes in policy and property to minimize the impacts of both natural and man-made disasters. Local Mitigation Plan Review Tool A-2 LOCAL MITIGATION PLAN REVIEW TOOL The Locol Mitigation Plan Review Tool demonstrates how the Local Mitigation Plan meets the regulation in 44 CFR §201.6 and offers States and FEMA Mitigation Planners an opportunity to provide feedback to the community. • The Regulation Checklist provides a summary of FEMA's evaluation of whether the Plan has addressed all requirements. • The Plan Assessment identifies the plan's strengths as well as documents areas for future improvement. • The Multi-iurisdiction Summary Sheet is an optional worksheet that can be used to document how each jurisdiction met the requirements of the each Element of the Plan (Planning Process; Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment; Mitigation Strategy; Plan Review, Evaluation, and Implementation; and Plan Adoption). The FEMA Mitigation Planner must reference this Locol Mitigation Plan Review Guide when completing the Local Mitigation Plan Review Tool.

ELEMENT F: REQUIRED REVISIONS Local Mitigation Plan Review Tool A-6 SECTION 2: PLAN ASSESSMENT INSTRUCTIONS: The purpose of the Plan Assessment is to offer the local community more comprehensive feedback to the community on the quality and utility of the plan in a narrative format. The audience for the Plan Assessment is not only the plan developer/local community planner, but also elected officials, local departments and agencies, and others involved in implementing the Local Mitigation Plan. The Plan Assessment must be completed by FEMA. The Assessment is an opportunity for FEMA to provide feedback and information to the community on: 1) suggested improvements to the Plan; 2) specific sections in the Plan where the community has gone above and beyond minimum requirements; 3) recommendations for plan implementation; and 4) ongoing partnership(s) and information on other FEMA programs, specifically RiskMAP and Hazard Mitigation Assistance programs. The Plan Assessment is divided into two sections: 1. Plan Strengths and Opportunities for Improvement 2. Resources for Implementing Your Approved Plan Plan Strengths and Opportunities for Improvement is organized according to the plan Elements listed in the Regulation Checklist. Each Element includes a series of italicized bulleted items that are suggested topics for consideration while evaluating plans, but it is not intended to be a comprehensive list. FEMA Mitigation Planners are not required to answer each bullet item, and should use them as a guide to paraphrase their own written assessment (2-3 sentences) of each Element. The Plan Assessment must not reiterate the required revisions from the Regulation Checklist or be regulatory in nature, and should be open-ended and to provide the community with suggestions for improvements or recommended revisions. The recommended revisions are suggestions for improvement and are not required to be made for the Plan to meet Federal regulatory requirements. The italicized text should be deleted once FEMA has added comments regarding strengths of the plan and potential improvements for future plan revisions. It is recommended that the Plan Assessment be a short synopsis of the overall strengths and weaknesses of the Plan (no longer than two pages), rather than a complete recap section by section. Resources for implementing Your Approved Plan provides a place for FEMA to offer information, data sources and general suggestions on the overall plan implementation and maintenance process. Information on other possible sources of assistance including, but not limited to, existing publications, grant funding or training opportunities, can be provided. States may add state and local resources, if available. Local Mitigation Plan Review Tool A-7 A. Plan Strengths and Opportunities for Improvement This section provides a discussion of the strengths of the plan document and identifies areas where these could be improved beyond minimum requirements. LICIIICIIL M. F-1011111116 rI VLCJJ How does the Plan go above and beyond minimum requirements to document the planning process with respect to: • Involvement of stakeholders (elected officials/decision makers, plan implementers, business owners, academic institutions, utility companies, water/sanitation districts, etc.), • Involvement of Planning, Emergency Management, Public Works Departments or other planning agencies (i.e., regional planning councils), • Diverse methods of participation (meetings, surveys, online, etc.); and • Reflective of an open and inclusive public involvement process. Element B: Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment In addition to the requirements listed in the Regulation Checklist, 44 CFR 201.6 Local Mitigation Plans identifies additional elements that should be included as part of a plan's risk assessment. The plan should describe vulnerability in terms of. - 1) f. 1) A general description of land uses and future development trends within the community so that mitigation options can be considered in future land use decisions; 2) The types and numbers of existing and future buildings, infrastructure, and critical facilities located in the identified hazard areas, and 3) A description of potential dollar losses to vulnerable structures, and a description of the methodology used to prepare the estimate. How does the Plan go above and beyond minimum requirements to document the Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment with respect to: • Use of best available data (flood maps, HAZUS, flood studies) to describe significant hazards; • Communication of risk on people, property, and infrastructure to the public (through tables, charts, maps, photos, etc.); • Incorporation of techniques and methodologies to estimate dollar losses to vulnerable structures; • Incorporation of Risk MAP products (i.e., depth grids, Flood Risk Report, Changes Since Last FIRM, Areas of Mitigation Interest, etc.), and • Identification of any data gaps that can be filled as new data became available. Local Mitigation Plan Review Tool A-8 Element C: Mitigation Strategy How does the Plan go above and beyond minimum requirements to document the Mitigation Strategy with respect to: • Key problems identified in, and linkages to, the vulnerability assessment; • Serving as a blueprint for reducing potential losses identified in the Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment, • Plan content flow from the risk assessment (problem identification) to goal setting to mitigation action development, • An understanding of mitigation principles (diversity of actions that include structural projects, preventative measures, outreach activities, property protection measures, post - disaster actions, etc); • Specific mitigation actions for each participating jurisdictions that reflects their unique risks and capabilities, • Integration of mitigation actions with existing local authorities, policies, programs, and resources, and • Discussion of existing programs (including the NFIP), plans, and policies that could be used to implement mitigation, as well as document past projects. Element D: Plan Update, Evaluation, and Implementation (Plan Updates Only) How does the Plan go above and beyond minimum requirements to document the 5 -year Evaluation and Implementation measures with respect to: • Status of previously recommended mitigation actions, • Identification of barriers or obstacles to successful implementation or completion of mitigation actions, along with possible solutions for overcoming risk, • Documentation of annual reviews and committee involvement, • Identification of a lead person to take ownership of, and champion the Plan, • Reducing risks from natural hazards and serving as a guide for decisions makers as they commit resources to reducing the effects of natural hazards, • An approach to evaluating future conditions (i.e. socio-economic, environmental, demographic, change in built environment etc.); • Discussion of how changing conditions and opportunities could impact community resilience in the long term, and • Discussion of how the mitigation goals and actions support the long-term community vision for increased resilience. Local Mitigation Plan Review Tool A-9 B. Resources for Implementing Your Approved Plan Ideas may be offered on moving the mitigation plan forward and continuing the relationship with key mitigation stakeholders such as the following: • What FEMA assistance (funding) programs are available (for example, Hazard Mitigation Assistance (HMA)) to the jurisdiction(s) to assist with implementing the mitigation actions? • What other Federal programs (National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP), Community Rating System (CRS), Risk MAP, etc.) may provide assistance for mitigation activities? • What publications, technical guidance or other resources are available to the jurisdiction(s) relevant to the identified mitigation actions? • Are there upcoming train ings/workshops (Benefit -Cost Analysis (BCA), HMA, etc.) to assist the jurisdictions (s) ? • What mitigation actions can be funded by other Federal agencies (for example, U.S. Forest Service, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAH), Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Smart Growth, Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Sustainable Communities, etc.) and/or state and local agencies?
