<br /> <br />-- <br />r-"'-1: <br />(.,/ , <br /> <br />COMPREHENSIVE EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT PLAN <br /> <br />In addition to the large group meetings, additional follow up occurred via telephone and <br />email to solidify the mitigation plan and priorities. The Mitigation Plan was also put on the <br />City of Pleasanton's website, and comments were invited to be sent to LPFD's Disaster <br />Preparedness Coordinator. <br /> <br />After FEMA approves the multi-jurisdictional plan, Pleasanton will place on the City <br />Council agenda a resolution adopting the plan and strategies. The mitigation strategies <br />will become an annex to Pleasanton's Emergency Management Plan. <br /> <br />Hazard and Risk Assessment <br /> <br />The ABAG multi-jurisdictional Local Hazard Mitigation Plan, to which this is an Annex, lists <br />nine hazards that impact the Bay Area, five related to earthquakes (faulting, shaking, <br />earthquake-induced landslides, liquefaction, and tsunamis) and four related to weather <br />(flooding, landslides, wildfires and drought). These hazards also impact this community, <br />with the exception of tsunamis. Pleasanton does not border the Pacific Ocean or the Bay, <br />so tsunamis are not a hazard in this area. <br /> <br />The multi-jurisdictional plan did not detail out hazardous materials or aviation hazards in <br />the City of Pleasanton. This information, along with additional details on flooding in the <br />area, is provided below from Pleasanton's All Hazard Vulnerability Analysis and <br />Pleasanton's Safety Element to the General Plan. <br /> <br />Information on disasters declared in Alameda <br />http://auake.abaa.ca.aov/mitiaation/disaster-historv.html <br /> <br />County <br /> <br />is <br /> <br />at: <br /> <br />The City examined the hazard exposure of the City urban land based on the information at <br />ABAG's website at http://auake.abaa.ca.aov/mitiaation/pickdbh2.html. Of the 10,076 <br />urban acres in the City: <br /> <br />o Earthquake Faulting-According to the CGS Alquist Priolo Earthquake Fault Zone <br />information on the ABAG website, the Northern Calaveras fault runs through the City. <br />386 urban acres are within the CGS study zone. <br /> <br />o Earthquake Shaking-All 10,076 urban acres are in the moderate to high categories <br />of shaking potential, due to the close proximity of the Calaveras Fault, Mt. Diablo <br />Thrust Fault, Greenville Fault and Hayward Fault. <br /> <br />o Earthquake-Induced Landslides- The California Geological Survey has not <br />completed mapping of this hazard in the City of Pleasanton. However, because few <br />areas have been mapped as landslides, this hazard is viewed as similar to that posed <br />by weather-related landslides as shown below. <br /> <br />o Earthquake Liquefaction--6,533 urban acres are in areas of moderate, high or very <br />high liquefaction susceptibility <br /> <br />o Flooding-720 urban acres are in the 100-year FEMA flood plain, while 2,261 urban <br />acres are in the 500 year flood plain <br /> <br />ANNEX G -local Hazard Mitigation Annex <br />Updaledl~12/05 <br /> <br />4 <br />
