Ensure that hazards are identified and considered in land use decisions. <br /> 2. Improve local emergency management capability. <br /> 3. Promote community awareness,understanding,and interest in hazard mitigation policies and programs. <br /> 4. Incorporate hazard mitigation as an integrated public policy and standard practice. <br /> 5. Reduce community exposure and vulnerability to hazards where the greatest risk exists. <br /> 6. Increase resilience of infrastructure and critical facilities. <br /> 7. Promote an adaptive and resilient planning area that responds proactively to future conditions. <br /> 8. Develop and implement mitigation strategies that identify the best alternative to protect natural resources, <br /> promote equity,and use public funds in an efficient and cost-effective manner. <br /> The objectives listed in Table ES-3 were identified to meet multiple goals,helping to establish priorities for <br /> recommended mitigation actions. <br /> MITIGATION ACTION PLAN <br /> The planning partnership selected a range of mitigation actions to work toward achieving the goals set forth in <br /> this plan update.The recommended mitigation actions are activities designed to reduce or eliminate losses <br /> resulting from natural hazards.The update process resulted in the identification of 73 mitigation actions for <br /> implementation by individual planning partners,as presented in Volume 2 of the hazard mitigation plan. In <br /> addition,the Steering Committee identified planning-area-wide actions benefiting the whole partnership,as listed <br /> in Table ES-4. <br /> xx <br /> TETRA TECH <br />
