Sampling of Mitigation Action Items

 Multi-Hazard

– Retrofit schools and facilities with secondary

heat fuels.

 Earthquake

– Protect critical facilities and infrastructure from

future seismic events by installing shutoff valves and emergency connector hoses where water mains cross fault lines.

Sampling of Mitigation Action Items

 Flood

– Mitigate against failure of storm drainage

systems by installing, re-routing, or increasing the capacity of the system.

 Wildfire

– Ensure use of non-combustible roof covering,

fire safe construction, and defensible space practices.

Sampling of Mitigation Action Items

 Severe Weather

– Strengthen roofing systems to withstand

snow/ice loads.

 Drought

– Install moisture sensors or remote irrigation

controllers at all District schools and facilities.
