Climate Hazards and Vulnerability2.0aPlease select the primary process or methodology used to undertake the risk and vulnerability assessment of your city.2Description1Risk assessment methodologyIn addition to the Township's vulnerability assessment which may be viewed at https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1bvN28th1eaT94c_M0P7mYGCyixVfXOuA/edit?usp=sharing&ouid=115990708086716856335&rtpof=true&sd=true, the Regional County vulnerability and risk assessment provides the county and each of the municipalities with a strategy for mitigation of natural, human and technological disasters that could occur in Montgomery County at any time. It addresses the local government planning responsibilities established by theStafford Act, (P.L. 106-390, the Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000) which requires state and local governments to develop and adopt an approved mitigation plan as a condition for receiving certain federal disaster grants and loans. This plan revises and updates the Montgomery County Hazard Mitigation Plan prepared in 2012 and adopted by 61 of the 62 municipalities in the county. The first Montgomery County Hazard Mitigation plan approved in 2007 was adopted by all 62 municipalities.The plan follows the same structure as the 2012 plan. Revisions in the plan reflect the changes and events that have taken place in Montgomery County over the last 5 years that could impact future hazard vulnerability in the county. Recent hazard events provide information aboutpotential vulnerability in our community and likely changes in hazard occurrences. In addition to hazard events over the past 5 years, revisions in the plan address other key changes or trends that could impact future hazards. Other revisions in the plan account for a variety of activities undertaken in the county to implement recommendations made in the 2012 Hazard Mitigation Plan.
