Communities reported on capabilities in the following target areas: Planning and Regulatory Administrative and Technical Financial Education and Outreach The outcome of the capability assessment surveys is summarized in Section 2. 1.4.6 HAZARD IDENTIFICATION AND RISK ASSESSMENT A risk assessment is a calculation of the threat, vulnerability, and consequence of hazards that impact the participating jurisdictions in the planning area. While hazard mitigation lends itself to natural hazards, Ramsey County included human-caused and technological hazards to develop a more holistic understanding of risk. The following hazards were identified and assessed during the plan update process: Dam/Levee Failure Drought Floods Geological Hazards (landslide, subsidence, and sinkholes) Hazardous Materials (Fixed Sites and In Transit) Summer Weather Hazards Tornado and Windstorm Winter Weather Hazards Human-Caused Hazards Infrastructure Failure Following an initial evaluation of hazard risk, the LPT discussed the results during the second planning meeting and added comment and context to the final assessment. Further information on the risk assessment process can be found in Section 3. 1.4.7 HAZARD MITIGATION STRATEGY The hazard mitigation strategy was structured in two phases. Initially, communities were provided a list of the hazard mitigation actions from the 2019 HMP. Communities were asked to assess their progress, employing a four-option status indicator to report updates: Not started In progress Ramsey County | Multi-Jurisdiction Hazard Mitigation Plan 11 Qbhf!281!pg!488
