7.5 Update

The Valley County Disaster and Emergency Services Coordinator will ensure the Hazard Mitigation Steering Committee updates the Hazard Mitigation Plan every five years to reflect the results of the annual reports and on-going plan evaluation. Throughout the planning cycle, the Valley County Disaster and Emergency Services Coordinator will ensure that new information is compiled and incorporated into the plan. The Valley County Disaster and Emergency Services Coordinator will also incorporate recommended comments expressed by FEMA in the initial review into the plan revision. At the end of the planning cycle, the Hazard Mitigation Steering Committee will submit the updated plan to the State Emergency Management Office and FEMA for review. After FEMA has approved the plan, the county will again formally adopt the plan. The following table is an outline of how the plan will be updated upon FEMA-approval:

7.6 Incorporation into Existing Planning Mechanisms

As part of the local capability assessment conducted during the planning process, the Hazard Mitigation Steering Committee identified current plans, programs, policies/ordinances, and studies/reports that will augment or help support mitigationplanning efforts. The Hazard Mitigation Steering Committee will meet on an annual basis, and will be the mechanism for ensuring the county integrates hazard mitigation into its future planning activities. Following plan approval and adoption, the Hazard Mitigation Steering Committee and participating jurisdictions will work to incorporate, where applicable, the plan into the planning mechanisms identified in the mitigation action section.

Throughout the plan maintenance cycle, the Valley County Disaster and Emergency Services Coordinator will work with the county and participate jurisdictions to integrate hazard mitigation goals and actions into the general operations of Valley County agencies. The Valley County Disaster and Emergency Services Coordinator will work with agencies to identify opportunities as outlined below:

Update work plans, policies, or procedures to include hazard mitigation concepts
Identify potential mitigation funding within capital and operational budgets
Issue plans, policies, executive orders, regulations, or other directives to carry out mitigation actions
Add hazard mitigation elements to redevelopment plans
