National Hurricane Conference Training Session
  • Panel Decision-Making Tools for
  • Risk Management Assessment
  • Claire Drury, HAZUS Program Manager

Earthquakes, Hurricanes, and FloodsWill Continue
to Occur
3
Earthquakes, Hurricanes, and FloodsWill Continue
to Occur, so
  • We need ways to communicate risk so that
    communities will be informed motivated to plan,
    prepare, mitigate respond

4
Earthquakes, Hurricanes, and FloodsWill Continue
to Occur
  • so that we can minimize damage and loss of life
    prevent natural hazards from becoming natural
    disasters

HAZUS-MH equips decision-makers to
  • IDENTIFY vulnerable areas that may require
    planning considerations (e.g., land use or
    building code requirements)
  • ASSESS the level of readiness and preparedness to
    deal with a disaster before the disaster occurs
  • ESTIMATE potential losses from specific hazard
    events, including pre-event, near real-time, and
    post-event report capability
  • DECIDE on how to allocate resources for the most
    effective and efficient mitigation, response and
    recovery
  • PRIORITIZE the mitigation measures that need to
    be implemented to reduce future losses
