Draft Hazard Mitigation Plan
The Mountains Recreation and Conservation Authority’s Draft Hazard Mitigation Plan is now available for review. The Plan identifies a range of natural hazards with the potential to significantly impact MRCA’s park resources within our area of responsibility, limited to facilities owned and maintained by MRCA. The Plan also provides a list of action items that can be conducted to reduce impacts from the identified hazards.
Part of the FEMA-mandated approval process for the Plan requires sharing the document with the general public as well as external agencies (jurisdictions, utilities, and special districts within the project area) to solicit valuable input. Written comments are accepted until September 20, 2021 via email to sally.garcia@mrca.ca.gov and at the following address:
