Multi-Jurisdictional Local Hazard Mitigation Plan
|
Purissima Hills Water District is participating in the Multi-Jurisdictional Local Hazard Mitigation Plan (MJ-LHMP) with the Association of Bay Area Governments (ABAG) taking the role of the lead Agency representing all participating Agencies when communicating with the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and California Emergency Management Agency (CalEMA). ABAG has received funds not only to coordinate this effort, but to execute the plans final strategy. Participating in the MJ-LHMP will allow Purissima Hills Water District to be eligible for funds (FEMA, CalEMA) pre and post disaster mitigation should the need arise. For example, in the event of an earthquake, the retrofit or replacement of damaged District infrastructure may be required.
