Allegany County Hazard Mitigation Plan Public Survey

Allegany County Hazard Mitigation Plan Public Survey at Deep Creek Lake, MD

The Hazard Mitigation Plan forms the foundation for Allegany County and its municipalities’ long-term strategy to reduce disaster losses and break the cycle of disaster damage, reconstruction, and repeated damage. The purpose of this plan is to identify, plan, and implement cost-effective hazard mitigation measures through a comprehensive approach known as hazard mitigation planning. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) requires hazard mitigation plans to be updated every five years.

To that end, updates to the Allegany County 2018 Hazard Mitigation Plan are underway. Allegany County’s Department of Emergency Services (DES) is the lead agency for this planning effort. Therefore, DES is seeking input on stakeholders’ concerns regarding hazards. This survey is being used to collect your insight and perspective on hazards identified in the plan.

The survey consists of 18 questions and will take an average of 9 minutes or less to complete.
