Vulnerabi
lity and Potential Losses
FEMA requires that an estimation of loss be conducted for the identified hazards to include the number of potential structures impacted by the hazards and the total potential costs. The analysis of potential losses calculated in Table I-4 used the best data currently available to produce an understanding of potential loss.
These estimates may be used to understand relative risk from hazards and potential losses. There ar e uncertainties in any loss estimation method, resulting from lack of scientific study and the exact result of hazard effects on the built environment, and from the use of approximations that are necessary for a comprehensive analysis.
Table I-4: Summary of Vulnerabilities and Potential Loss Hazard Type Impacts/Costs
Climate Change
Impacts: Climate change will cause multiple effects to infrastructure and community public health.
Warmer weather associated with climate change will result in more heat related illness. Drier weather will place increasing demands on imported and well water, and may lead to long lasting draughts that result in water rationing.
Costs: Climate change costs are difficult to specify. They will occur and accrue over centuries. As temperatures rise, additional costs for climate control such as air conditioning will occur. Less precipitation may result in depletion of stored and ground water reserves with potential for increased water costs and rationing. Much of these costs will be borne by individuals and families. Increased costs will also affect businesses and government owned facilities. Researchers at UC Berkeley (Science, May 2017) concluded Tulare County
Local Hazard Mitigation Plan
March 2023
Annex I-21
that for every 1-degree Fahrenheit increase in global temperatures, the U.S. economy stands to lose about
0.7 percent of its Gross Domestic Product, with each degree of warming costing more than the last.
Dam Inundation
Impacts: Success and Terminus Dams have large inundation areas
Costs: A rapid failure of Success or Terminus Dam would result in catastrophic loss of life and injury, and property loss. Map B-6 depicts the potential footprint for dam inundation. Specifics of the inundation curves are contained in the dam Emergency Action Plans which are limited distribution documents. The potential injury and death from a short notice dam failure could be in the 10,000s. Total losses within the County to school facilities could exceed $1,000,000,000.
Drought
Impacts: Drought produces a variety of impacts that span many sectors of the economy. Reduced crops productivity; increased fire hazard; reduced water levels; increased livestock and wildlife mortality; and rationing are a few examples of direct impacts. These problems can result in increased prices for food and lumber, unemployment, reduced tax revenues, increased crime, and foreclosures on bank loans to farmers and businesses, and migration. Populations that rely on or are affected by a lack of water or annual rainfall are most directly affected by droughts. The County is dependent on imported water for most of its needs. During prolonged draughts, water rationing is possible resulting in potentially higher water costs and loss of private and public landscaping.
Costs: Potential costs from draught to the County and its communities are difficult to quantify and are dependent upon draught duration and severity. In addition to increased costs for water, prolonged draught may result in reduced property values, loss of tax revenues and migration, all of which will cause economic losses.
Extreme Heat
Impacts: Extreme heat events, present serious health risks to the County’s most vulnerable populations.
The effects of extreme heat (over 84°F) on human health are well documented. Increased temperature or extended periods of elevated temperatures can increase heat-related mortality, cardiovascular-related mortality, respiratory mortality, and heart attacks, while increasing hospital admissions and emergency room visits. Extreme heat can also affect a person’s ability to thermo-regulate, causing heat stress and sometimes leading to death.
Costs: Extreme heat results in increased electricity usage and additional health care costs. While additional power costs affect both commercial and residential properties, added health care costs impact individuals and families. Extreme heat may reduce economic activity if prolonged.
Flood
Impacts: Flooding occurs throughout the County during periods of heavy rain due to inadequate drainage.
The flat geography also contributes to ponding.
Tulare County
Local Hazard Mitigation Plan
March 2023
Annex I-22
Costs: There are no accurate costs values associated with past flood events. Future flood incidents will likely result in structural damage and lost economic activity. Flood costs to County school districts could be in excess of $1,000,000,000.
Terrorism
Impacts: Terrorist attacks against schools are an unfortunate but real potential vulnerability. Previous incidents have targeted single facilities and resulted in mass fatalities. Likely impacts from a terrorist attack on a school are multiple deaths and injuries, damage to facilities and loss of confidence in community cohesion.
Costs: The costs of terrorist attacks are difficult to quantify. In addition to emergency services response costs and damage to facilities, the community costs are real but intangible. Individual costs include medical and funeral expenses. Long term increased law enforcement and security costs are also likely to occur.
Based upon previously occurring incidents and the risk assessment, the following hazards are most likely to affect Tulare:
• Climate Change
• Dam Inundation
• Drought
• Extreme heat
• Flood
• Terrorism

I.4 Capabilities Assessment
The reason for conducting a capability assessment is to identify TCOE’s capacity to successfully implement mitigation activities. Understanding internal and external processes, resources and skills forms the basis of implementing a successful HMP. Understanding strengths and weaknesses also helps ensure that goals and objectives are realistic and attainable.
The planning team conducted an assessment of TCOE’s capabilities that contribute to the reduction of long- term vulnerabilities to hazards. The capabilities include authorities and policies, such as legal and regulatory resources, staff, and fiscal resources. Staff resources include technical personnel such as planners/engineers with knowledge of d evelopment and land management and an understanding of natural or human -caused hazards. The planning team also considered ways to expand on and improve existing policies and programs with the goal of integrating hazard mitigation into the day-to-day activities and programs of TCOE. In carrying out the capability assessment, several areas were examined:
• Planning and regulatory capabilities
• Administrative and technical resources
• Fiscal resources including grants, mutual aid agreements, operating funds and access to funds • Technical and staff resources to assist in implementing/overseeing mitigation activities • Previous and Ongoing Mitigation Activities
Table I-5 provides a list of TCOE’s capabilities:

x J Tule River Tribe
The Tule River Indian Tribe (hereafter referred to as the Tule River Tribe) is a F ederally-recognized tribe that inhabits the Tule River Indian Reservation, which was established in 1873. Figure J-1 provides a map of the Reservation.
J.1 COMMUNITY PROFILE
Geography and Climate: Established in 1873, the Tule River Indian Reservation is estimated to cover almost 85 square miles of rugged foothill lands of the Sierra Nevada Mountains. The reservation is located in a remote rural area approximately 20 miles from the nearest town of P orterville. The Reservation is accessible only by one winding paved road that follows the meandering South Fork of the Tule River. It is isolated in a rugged setting that allows for privacy and for development independent from urban or recreational sprawl. The Tribe also owns 40 acres in the Porterville Airport Industrial Park and 79.9 acres in the foothill scenic development corridor along Highway 190.
Government: The Tule River Tribal Council, which was created by the constitution and bylaws of the Tule River Tribe and approved January 15, 1936, conducts executive, legislative, and business functions. The Tribal Council consists of nine council members elected by secret ballot. The elected officials then decide who will perform the functions of chairman, vice chairman, secretary, and treasurer.
Population and demographics: The Tule River Tribe has a population of 1490. The Tribe consists of Yokut, Western Mono, and Tubatulabal peoples.
Economy: The Tule River Tribe has three enterprises that assist the tri be in making their community a better place. Through these enterprises, the Tule River Tribe is able to be a self-sufficient entity improving the everyday lives of their members. The enterprises are:
• Eagle Mountain Casino is the only full- service casino in Tulare County offering local residents gaming 24 hours a day
• Tule River Airport Hanger is a 20,000-square foot facility that is a lease property • Eagle Feather Trading Post is one of the largest convenience stores in Tulare County, located on Hwy 190 just above Lake Success. The store has a full line of groceries, cold beer, wine, fishing and bait supplies
Development in hazard prone areas:
Because population growth was less than two percent per year since approval of the 2011 MJLHMP, there has been no development in hazard prone areas that has affected overall vulnerability of the County.
Development that did occur, was primarily infill in urban areas where vulnerabilities are well understood and described.
Tulare County
Local Hazard Mitigation Plan
March 2023
Annex J-1
The new MJLHMP addresses the new hazard of climate change. This hazard impacts the entire City.
Development in the City, the State and globally with increased carbon emissions will result in increasing overall vulnerabilities to its impacts.
J.2 HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION AND ANALYSIS
Hazards: While the Tule River Tribe faces many of the hazards that are present in the County, the severity of the hazards is different . Hazards in the Reservation with unlikely frequency, limited extent, limited magnitude and low significance were not included. These include dam failure, earthquake, earthquake liquefaction - subsidence, flood, civil unrest, levee failure and terrorism/cyber terrorism. Because of it s location in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada Mountains, the Reservation faces more severe threat from wildland fires and winter storms. Table J-1 below provides a summary of hazards. There are no hazards that are unique to the Tribe.
Guidelines for Hazard Rankings
Frequency of Occurrence:
Highly Likely Near 100% probability in next year
Likely Between 10 and 100% probability in next year or at least one chance in ten years Occasional Between 1 and 10% probability in next year or at least one chance in next 100 years Unlikely Less than 1% probability in next 100 years

J.3 RISK ASSESSMENT
The intent of this section is to assess the Tule River Tribe’s vulnerability separate from that of the Operational Area as a whole, which has analyzed and described in Section 5.3 Risk Assessment in the base plan. This risk assessment analyzes the population, property, and other assets vulnerable to the hazards ranked of medium or high significance that may vary from other parts of the planning area. For more information about how hazards affect the County as a whole, see Section 5 of the base plan.

Vulnerabilities and Potential Losses:
A risk assessment determines the vulnerability of assets within the Tribal lands by evaluating the inventory of existing property exposed to a hazard. The population and economy are considered as part of the overall County analysis. A quantitative vulnerability assessment is limited to the exposure buildings, and infrastructures to the identified hazards. This risk assessment includes those hazards that are natural and terrorism.
Populations at Risk
The Tule River Tribe has a population of 1490.
Economic Risks
Economic risks are associated with damage or loss of the Tribes three major revenue producing enterprises.
They are:
• Eagle Mountain Casino is the only full- service casino in Tulare County offering local residents gaming 24 hours a day
• Tule River Aero-Industries is a 20,000-square foot facility that is a major engine and airframe repair station equipped with a full line aircraft sales department • Eagle Feather Trading Post is one of the largest convenience stores in Tulare County, located on Hwy 190 just above Lake Success. The store has a full line of groceries; cold beer, wine, fishing and bait supplies

Annex J-7
Vulnerability and Potential Losses
FEMA requires that an estimation of loss be conducted for the identified hazards to include the number of potential structures impacted by the hazards and the total potential costs. The analysis of potential losses calculated in Table J-4 used the best data currently available to produce an understanding of potential loss.
These estimates may be used to understand relative risk from hazards and potential losses. There are uncertainties in any loss estimation method, resulting from lack of scientific study and the exact result of hazard effects on the built environment, and from the use of approximations that are necessary for a comprehensive analysis.
Table J-4: Summary of Vulnerabilities and Potential Loss Hazard Type Impacts/Costs
Climate Change
Impacts: Climate change will cause multiple effects to infrastructure and community public health.
Warmer weather associated with climate change will result in more heat related illness. Drier weather will place increasing demands on surface river water and well water, and may lead to long lasting draughts that result in water rationing.
Costs: Climate change costs are difficult to specify. They will occur and accrue over centuries. As temperatures rise, additional costs for climate control such as air conditioning will occur. Less precipitation may result in depletion of stored and ground water reserves with potential for increased water costs and rationing. Much of these costs will be borne by individuals and families. Increased costs will also affect businesses and government owned facilities. Researchers at UC Berkeley (Science, May 2017) concluded that for every 1-degree Fahrenheit increase in global temperatures, the U.S. economy stands to lose about
0.7 percent of its Gross Domestic Product, with each degree of warming costing more than the last.
Drought
Impacts: Drought produces a variety of impacts that span many sectors of the economy. Reduced crops productivity; increased fire hazard; reduced surface river water levels; increased livestock and wildlife mortality; and rationing are a few examples of direct impacts. These problems can result in increased prices for food and lumber, unemployment, reduced tax revenues, increased crime, and foreclosures on bank loans to farmers and businesses, and migration. Populations that rely on or are affected by a lack of water or annual rainfall are most directly affected by droughts. The County is dependent on surface river water for most of its needs. During prolonged draughts, water rationing is possible resulting in potentially higher water costs and loss of private and public landscaping.
Costs: Potential costs from draught to the County and its communities are difficult to quantify and are dependent upon draught duration and severity. In addition to increased costs for water, prolonged draught may result in reduced property values, loss of tax revenues and migration, all of which will cause economic losses.
Extreme Heat
Impacts: Extreme heat events, present serious health risks to the County’s most vulnerable populations.
The effects of extreme heat (over 84°F) on human health are well documented. Increased temperature or extended periods of elevated temperatures can increase heat-related mortality, cardiovascular-related mortality, respiratory mortality, and heart attacks, while increasing hospital admissions and emergency room visits. Extreme heat can also affect a person’s ability to thermo-regulate, causing heat stress and sometimes leading to death.

March 2023
Annex J-8
Costs: Extreme heat results in increased electricity usage and additional health care costs. While additional power costs affect both commercial and residential properties, added health care costs impact individuals and families. Extreme heat may reduce economic activity if prolonged.
Winter Storm
Impacts: Winter storms may result in property damage road closures and damage to roadways and bridges.
Costs: Costs to the Tribe will include emergency response and repair of damaged facilities. Costs are likely to be less than $10,000,000.
Based upon previously occurring incidents and the risk assessment, the following hazards are most likely to affect Tulare:
• Climate Change
• Drought
• Extreme heat
• Wildland Fire
• Winter Storms
Wildland fire poses a critical threat to the Tule River Tribe due to its geography and remoteness. A list of recent wildland fire is detailed in Table J-5 below

J.4 CAPABILITIES ASSESSMENT
The reason for conducting a capability assessment is to identify the Tule River Tribe’ s capacity to successfully implement mitigation activities. Understanding internal and external processes, resources and skills forms the basis of implementing a successful HMP. Understanding strengths and weaknesses also helps ensure that goals and objectives are realistic and attainable.
The planning team conducted an assessment of the Tribe’s capabilities that contribute to the reduction of long-term vulnerabilities to hazards. The capabilities include authorities and policies, such as legal and regulatory resources, staff, and fiscal resources. Staff resources include technical personnel such as planners/engineers with knowledge of development and land management pract ices and an understanding of natural or human-caused hazards. The planning team also considered ways to expand on and improve existing policies and programs with the goal of integrating hazard mitigation into the day-to- day activities and programs of the T ribe. In carrying out the capability assessment, several areas were examined:
• Planning and regulatory capabilities
• Administrative and technical resources
• Fiscal resources including grants, mutual aid agreements, operating funds and access to funds • Technical and staff resources to assist in implementing/overseeing mitigation activities • Previous and Ongoing Mitigation Activities
Tables J-6 through J-9 provide a list of the Tribe’s capabilities.

Their purpose is to obtain and deliver a surface water supplies for the purpose of agricultural irrigation in the District and for the groundwater recharge efforts within the basin underlying the District. The District must also operate and maintain 330 miles of canal and approximately 30 miles of pipeline along with 1,110 acres of groundwater recharge/regulation basins.
The District delivers surface water to approximately 230 farms . The exterior boundary of the District encompasses an area of 77,000 acres (including the City of Tulare which is not part of the District).Therefore, the net District acreage is approximately 70,000 acres.
The ongoing activities within the District generally include:
• Rehabilitation of existing infrastructure and water conveyance systems. • Expansion of groundwater recharge efforts.
• Pursuit of water management opportunities with other entities and districts to maximize water supplies and reduce the cost of water to landowners.
• Exploration and pursuit of additional water sources for the District. • Training of District personnel in the operations and distribution of surface water to minimize wate r
l
osses and provide optimal service to landowners.
• The im plementation of Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition ( SCADA) systems to enhance water management capabilities and minimize the loss of surface water.

ct Website
The C
ounty of Tulare began community outreach efforts mid 2021 with the release of the project website which served as the primary host of project updates and opportunities to engage with the development of the plan. The website was released in English and is compatible with automatic web service translation services. Project Staff contact information and a listserv registration lives on the home page. Other pages on the website share educational videos, project timeline and process, emergency preparedness resources, links to previous related planning documents, and an event calendar. The project website can be accessed here:
https://tularecounty.ca.gov/rma/planning-building/tulare-county-adaptation-and-resiliency-plan/
ii.
Informational Video
Shortl
y following the release of the website, County Staff posted a 5-minute informational video created to introduce the purpose of the Multi-Jurisdictional Hazard Mitigation Plan and Climate Adaptation and Resilience Plan. Local decision-makers and Stakeholders were asked to be lead presenters in this video to share the County’s goals through recognizable and respected community figures. Including Stakeholders in this process also served as a first opportunity to encourage local experts to play a part in the development of the plan during stakeholder outreach efforts. Captions were made available in both English and Spanish. The video was posted on the website, shared with Stakeholders, and viewed independently more than 50 times online. The video can be watched here:

Initial Public Survey
The C
ounty’s Initial public survey was released the Summer of 2021 in both English and Spanish. The survey consisted of 17 questions regarding residents’ experiences with natural and climate hazards, their greatest concerns, their level of preparedness, and what strategies they would like the County to prioritize. The survey was posted on the project website, shared through social media, and promoted at every public engagement event.
iv. Press

vi. Secon
d Public Survey
On
July 19th, t
he County released a detailed public survey which asked participants 25 questions about specific hazard events, their own backgrounds, their level of disaster preparedness, and what they believe to be the best solutions to mitigate the impact of future hazard events. This survey was promoted at public outreach events.
Approximately six responses were collected. The complete survey results can be found in Appendix A.
The respondents live in the central valley region of Tulare County and recognized drought and extreme heat as the hazards they were most concerned about. Five of the six respondents selected social media as a preferred method to receive disaster preparedness information with radio and public awareness campaigns being the next highest preference with four selections.
b. Publi
c Engagement
The C
ounty of Tulare hosted and attended 11 community events throughout the region to receive input from a variety of residents in terms of where they live and the hazards their communities likely experience. To best plan a broad array of community outreach efforts, the County catalogued local community events by major geographic areas: North Foothills, Central Foothills, South Foothills, Mountains, North Valley, Central Valley, and South Valley.
At least one event was held in each of the geographic regions. Events were prioritized based on their expected attendance to maximize potential interactions. Open town halls were held in communities where no suitable community events were identified. Many of the events were advertised through social media posts and flyer distribution. Table 1 shows details about each public engagement event. All posterboard detailed results can be found in Appendix A.

Su
mmary of Findings
After
reviewing the responses from the community engagement events, the County Staff determined that overall, community members are most concerned about extreme heat, drought, and wildfire. These three interrelated hazards are compounded by the effects of climate change recognized by the participants as being the greatest threats to their community. Participants attending the Woodville (20%), Porterville (19%), Springville (14%), and Lindsay (13%) events selected invasive species as a primary threat relatively more than participants at other events.
Flooding was chosen as a primary hazard relatively more at the events hosted in Porterville (10%), Visalia (10%), Allensworth (9%), and Springville (8%). Wildfire was prioritized over extreme heat and drought in the mountain and Foothill regions.
In adapting to these hazards, participants prioritized emergency water systems as their top mitigation strategy closely followed by emergency services such as firefighters and medical responders. Participants at the Visalia (33%), Allensworth (24%), and Goshen (21%) events voted relatively high in favor of air conditioning. The participants in Camp Nelson added an option which received the majority of the responses: proper forest management (57%). Participants attending the Lindsay event added alternative solutions: local affordable energy (in reference to air conditioning and emergency backup energy), solar panel permit streamlining (in reference to air conditioning and resilient micro grids), ponding basins (in reference to flooding and ground water recharge).
Overall, participants prefer to be notified of a disaster event via phone alert and social media. However, participants noted the need for increased broadband coverage in some communities who do not receive strong cell service.

lder Worksheets
During
the second Stakeholder Workshop, County Staff walked through a thorough questionnaire created to gauge local capacity in responding to hazard events, record historic impacts from previous hazards, and document community vulnerabilities as they related to natural and climate hazards. By collecting this information from Stakeholders and the organizations they represent, the County of Tulare was able to piece together a regional picture showing the current status of climate adaptation and hazard mitigation. These worksheets helped create a baseline assessment. County Staff made themselves available to partner jurisdictions who requested support in completing the worksheet. In May of 2022, County Staff held a workshop with school district representatives to assist them in completing their worksheets. The Stakeholder Worksheet can be seen in full in Appendix B. ii.
Stakeholder Survey
During
the third Stakeholder Meeting, County Staff released a Stakeholder Survey that asked 25 questions about specific hazard events, the Stakeholders’ backgrounds, their level of disaster preparedness, and what they believe to be the best solutions to mitigate the impact of future hazard events. Time was given during the Workshop for attendees to complete the survey and ask questions. It was also distributed through email to all Stakeholders following the Workshop. Approximately 20 responses were collected.
Su
mmary of Findings
Stakeh
olders identified social media (17 out of 20) and radio (14 out of 20) as the best formats to receive information on disaster preparedness. Overall, Stakeholders were “extremely concerned” about the threat of drought (13 out of 20) and extreme heat (8 out of 20) as well as “very concerned” about energy emergencies (8 out of 20). When asked what kind of projects the County should pursue to mitigate the impact from hazards, Stakeholders selected, ”Retrofit critical infrastructure such as roads and bridges, flood control systems, water and wastewater treatment plants, and power distribution systems” (13 out of 20) and, “Implement projects that mitigate the potential impacts of climate change” (10 out of 20) as high priorities. Furthermore, Stakeholders recognized public education, emergency management, and the update of planning and building codes as priorities to reduce the damage risk of hazard.

Appendix H-1
Appendix H: Safety Element, Climate Action Plan and MJLHMP Integration
This appendix provides a summary of the relationship between the Public Safety Element of the General Plan and the LHMP. It also summarizes the relevant Federal and State legislation governing the adoption, update, and integration of the LHMP and Public Safety Element. Finally, the appendix demonstrates the components of each plan that have been included to comply with the relevant legislation.
Background
Tulare County General Plan Health and Safety Element
California Planning and Zoning Law requires that a city or county general plan contain specified elements, including a safety element for the protection of the community from any unreasonable risks associated with the effects of seismically induced surface rupture, ground shaking, ground failure, tsunami, seiche, and dam failure; slope instability leading to mudslides and landslides, subsidence, liquefaction, and other seismic, geologic, and fire hazards.
In the County, the requirements of the safety element are contained within the Safety Element of the General Plan – the County’s integrated General Plan and Land Use Plan. The Safety Element establishes goals, policies, and actions that protect communities from risk associated with natural hazards. The element places specific focus on hazards that could be made more severe with anticipated impacts of climate change.
Local Hazard Mitigation Plan
The MJLHMP is a five-year strategic plan that also seeks to identify and mitigate natural hazards. The MJLHMP is related but distinct from the Safety Element, directly responding to the requirements of the Federal Disaster Mitigation Act (DMA) of 2000. The DMA establishes requirements to identify hazards, evaluate mitigations, and prioritize strategies to mitigate hazard risks. To maintain eligibility for FEMA funding, the County must update the MJLHMP every five years at a minimum.
In Tulare County, the MJLHMP was first developed in 2005, with an update occurring in 2011. Another update to the MHLHMP is also underway, with adoption anticipated in 2017. Consistent with FEMA’s Local Mitigation Planning Guidance, the MJLHMP under development includes evaluations of risk, vulnerability, capability, and mitigation strategies as well as a summary of the planning process and plan maintenance procedures.
Relevant Legislation
The Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000 (DMA 2000)
The Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000, also commonly known as “The 2000 Stafford Act Amendments”, constitutes an effort by the Federal government to reduce the rising cost of disasters by stressing the importance of mitigation planning and disaster preparedness prior to an event.
Mitigation Planning Section 322 of the Act requires local governments to develop, submit, and update hazard mitigation plans every five years in order to qualify for Hazard Mitigation Assistance (HMA) grant program funds. The County and associated jurisdictions including the Tule River Tribe must have an approved hazard mitigation plan pursuant to §201.6 in order to receive FEMA Pre-Disaster Mitigation (PDM) project grants or to receive HMA funding.
The California Disaster Assistance Act of 2006 (AB 2140) In October 2006, the California State Legislature passed AB 2140 – the California Disaster Assistance Act - which went into effect January 1, 2007. AB 2140 limits the state’s share of funding for disaster recovery projects to 75% of the recovery costs unless a local jurisdiction has complied with the legislation by incorporating a local hazard mitigation plan as part of the safety element of the general plan, at which point up to 100% of the recovery costs may be covered by the State.
Tulare County
Local Hazard Mitigation Plan
March 2023
Appendix H-2
By incorporating the MJLHMP by reference into the Safety Element of the General Plan, the County will be considered eligible for the increased State share of public assistance reimbursement for disaster recovery projects.
Climate Adaptation and Resiliency Strategies (SB 379)
Senate Bill 379, signed into law in October 2015, requires all California cities and counties to include climate adaptation and resiliency strategies in the safety elements of the general plan, upon the next revision on or after January 1, 2017. Specifically, the bill requires that upon the next revision of a general plan or local hazard mitigation plan, the safety element be updated to address climate adaptation and resiliency strategies applicable to the city or county. This review and update is to include all of the following:
A. A vulnerability assessment that identifies the risks that climate change poses to the local jurisdiction and the geographic areas at risk from climate change impacts.
B. A set of adaptation and resilience goals, policies, and objectives based on the information specified in the climate vulnerability assessment for the protection of the community.
C. A set of feasible implementation measures designed to carry out the goals, policies, and objectives identified pursuant to the adaptation objectives, including but not limited to the following:
i. Feasible methods to avoid or minimize climate change impacts associated with new uses of land. ii. The location, when feasible, of new essential public facilities outside of at-risk areas, including, but not limited to, hospitals and health care facilities, emergency shelters, emergency command centers, and emergency communications facilities, or identifying construction methods or other methods to minimize damage if these facilities are located in at-risk areas. iii. The designation of adequate and feasible infrastructure located in an at-risk area. iv. Guidelines for working cooperatively with relevant local, regional, state, and federal agencies. v. The identification of natural infrastructure that may be used in adaptation projects, where feasible.
This may include, but is not limited to, floodplain and wetlands restoration or preservation, combining levees with restored natural systems to reduce flood risk, and urban tree planting to mitigate high heat days.
Compliance + Coordination
Incorporation of LHMP into Public Safety Element (AB 2140 compliance) The adoption of the MJLHMP by reference into the Safety Element of the General Plan, allows the County to be eligible for additional disaster recovery funding from the State of California. The MJLHMP has been incorporated into the General Plan document, implementation plans, background studies, and is referenced in the Planning Commission Resolution as follows:
The County adopts the 2017 County of Tulare Multi-Jurisdictional Hazard Mitigation Plan as the Health and Safety Element of the general plan in accordance with the County Board of Supervisors resolution 2016-0896 on November 15, 2016. Specific sections of the MJLHMP that meet the general plan safety element are contained in Table H-1.

Additionally, the Safety Element includes the following language:
Section 10.7 Emergency Response
HS-7.8 Tulare County Multi-Jurisdiction Hazard Mitigation Plan The County incorporates the adopted Tulare County Multi-Jurisdiction Hazard Mitigation Plan into the Tulare County General Plan Health and Safety Element. The plan provides guidance and insight into the hazards that exist in Tulare County and suggests possible mitigation projects. The plan should be consulted when addressing known hazards to ensure the general health and safety of Tulare County residents.
Within the Safety Element, there are additional item that may be taken as mitigation measures. They include:
HS-6.16 Consideration of Diverse Occupancies and their effects on Wildfire Protection The County shall strive to ensure risks to uniquely occupied structures, such as seasonally occupied homes, multiple dwelling structures, or other structures with unique occupancy characteristics, are considered for appropriate and unique wildfire protection needs.
HS-6.17 Integration of Open Space into Fire Safety Effectiveness The County shall strive to address the facilitation of safe fire suppression tactics, standards for adequate access for firefighting, fire mitigation planning with agencies/private landowners managing open space adjacent to the County jurisdictional area, water sources for fire suppression, and other fire prevention and suppression needs.
HS-6.18 Mitigation for unique pest, disease and other forest health issues leading to hazardous situations
The County shall strive to address unique pest, disease, exotic species and other forest health issues in open space areas for purposes of reducing fire hazard and supporting ecological integrity.
HS-6.20 Fire Suppression Defense Zones
The County shall support the creation of wildfire defense zones for emergency services, including fuel breaks or other staging areas where WUI firefighting tactics could be most effectively deployed as appropriate consistent with the strategies identified in the Multi-Jurisdictional Local Hazard Mitigation Plan.
HS-6.21 Redevelopment of Structures in High and Very Hazardous Areas In High and Very hazardous areas, the County shall strive to ensure that the redevelopment of structures utilize state of the art fire resistant building and development standards to improve past ‘substandard” fire safe conditions as feasible and appropriate according to applicable codes.
HS-6.22 Long Term Maintenance of Fire Hazard Reduction Mitigation Projects Consistent with the Multi-Jurisdictional Local Hazard Mitigation Plan, the County shall support maintenance of the post-fire-recovery projects, activities, or infrastructure as feasible and appropriate.

Climate Change Vulnerability Assessment (SB 379 compliance) Pursuant to Senate Bill 379 and California Government Code Section 65302(g)(4), the Safety Element has been developed to address climate adaptation and resiliency strategies applicable to the County and is consistent with the Governor’s Office of Planning and Research advice to:
Conduct a vulnerability assessment identifying climate change risks Include a set of adaptation and resilience goals, policies, and objectives based on the identified climate change vulnerabilities
Identify a set of feasible implementation measures designed to carry out the goals, policies, and objectives
Incorporate a reference to the MJLHMP that fulfills goals and objectives, and contains information related to climate change vulnerability and adaptation policies
In the preparation of the MJLHMP, the County utilized the Cal Adapt Tool and California Adaptation Planning Guide to identify climate change risks and determined that fire and extreme heat are among the primary risks to the County that will increase in severity due to climate change. The findings in these studies were summarized in the Climate Action Plan, and a set of goals, policies, and implementation actions to address climate change have been identified. The full contents of the Climate Action Plan are available at:

LOCAL MITIGATION PLAN REVIEW TOOL
The L
ocal Mitigation Plan Review Tool demonstrates how the Local Mitigation Plan meets the regulation in 44 CFR §201.6 and offers States and FEMA Mitigation Planners an opportunity to provide feedback to the community.
• The Regulation Checklist provides a summary of FEMA’s evaluation of whether the Plan has addressed all requirements.
• The Plan Assessment identifies the plan’s strengths, as well as documents areas for future improvement.
• The Multi-jurisdiction Summary Sheet is an optional worksheet that can be used to document how each jurisdiction met the requirements of each Element of the Plan (Planning Process; Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment; Mitigation Strategy; Plan Review, Evaluation, and Implementation; and Plan Adoption).
The F
EMA Mitigation Planner must reference this Local Mitigation Plan Review Guide when completing the Local Mitigation Plan Review Tool.

SECTION 2:
PLAN ASSESSMENT
INSTRUCTIONS: The purpose of the Plan Assessment is to offer the local community more comprehensive feedback to the community on the quality and utility of the plan in a narrative format. The audience for the Plan Assessment is not only the plan developer/local community planner, but also elected officials, local departments and agencies, and others involved in implementing the Local Mitigation Plan. The Plan Assessment must be completed by FEMA. The Assessment is an opportunity for FEMA to provide feedback and information to the community on: 1) suggested improvements to the Plan; 2) specific sections in the Plan where the community has gone above and beyond minimum requirements; 3) recommendations for plan implementation; and 4) ongoing partnership(s) and information on other FEMA programs, specifically RiskMAP and Hazard Mitigation Assistance programs. The Plan Assessment is divided into two sections:
1. Plan Strengths and Opportunities for Improvement
2. Resources for Implementing Your Approved Plan
Plan Strengths and Opportunities for Improvement is organized according to the plan Elements listed in the Regulation Checklist. Each Element includes a series of italicized bulleted items that are suggested topics for consideration while evaluating plans, but it is not intended to be a comprehensive list. FEMA Mitigation Planners are not required to answer each bullet item, and should use them as a guide to paraphrase their own written assessment (2-3 sentences) of each Element.
The Plan Assessment must not reiterate the required revisions from the Regulation Checklist or be regulatory in nature, and should be open-ended and to provide the community with suggestions for improvements or recommended revisions. The recommended revisions are suggestions for improvement and are not required to be made for the Plan to meet Federal regulatory requirements. The italicized text should be deleted once FEMA has added comments regarding strengths of the plan and potential improvements for future plan revisions. It is recommended that the Plan Assessment be a short synopsis of the overall strengths and weaknesses of the Plan (no longer than two pages), rather than a complete recap section by section.
Resources for Implementing Your Approved Plan provides a place for FEMA to offer information, data sources and general suggestions on the overall plan implementation and maintenance process. Information on other possible sources of assistance including, but not limited to, existing publications, grant funding or training opportunities, can be provided. States may add state and local resources, if available.

A. Plan Strengths and Opportunities for Improvement
This section provides a discussion of the strengths of the plan document and identifies areas where these could be improved beyond minimum requirements.
Elemen
t A: Planning Process
How does the Plan go above and beyond minimum requirements to document the planning process with respect to:
• Involvement of stakeholders (elected officials/decision makers, plan implementers, business owners, academic institutions, utility companies, water/sanitation districts, etc.);
• Involvement of Planning, Emergency Management, Public Works Departments or other planning agencies (i.e., regional planning councils);
• Diverse methods of participation (meetings, surveys, online, etc.); and • Reflective of an open and inclusive public involvement process.
Ele
ment B: Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment
In addition to the requirements listed in the Regulation Checklist, 44 CFR 201.6 Local Mitigation Plans identifies additional elements that should be included as part of a plan’s risk assessment. The plan should describe vulnerability in terms of:
1) A general description of land uses and future development trends within the community so that mitigation options can be considered in future land use decisions; 2) The types and numbers of existing and future buildings, infrastructure, and critical facilities located in the identified hazard areas; and
3) A description of potential dollar losses to vulnerable structures, and a description of the methodology used to prepare the estimate.
How does the Plan go above and beyond minimum requirements to document the Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment with respect to:
• Use of best available data (flood maps, HAZUS, flood studies) to describe significant hazards;
• Communication of risk on people, property, and infrastructure to the public (through tables, charts, maps, photos, etc.);
• Incorporation of techniques and methodologies to estimate dollar losses to vulnerable structures;
• Incorporation of Risk MAP products (i.e., depth grids, Flood Risk Report, Changes Since Last FIRM, Areas of Mitigation Interest, etc.); and
• Identification of any data gaps that can be filled as new data became available.

Appendix J-6
Element C: Mitigation Strategy
How does the Plan go above and beyond minimum requirements to document the Mitigation Strategy with respect to:
• Key problems identified in, and linkages to, the vulnerability assessment; • Serving as a blueprint for reducing potential losses identified in the Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment;
• Plan content flow from the risk assessment (problem identification) to goal setting to mitigation action development;
• An understanding of mitigation principles (diversity of actions that include structural projects, preventative measures, outreach activities, property protection measures, post- disaster actions, etc);
• Specific mitigation actions for each participating jurisdictions that reflects their unique risks and capabilities;
• Integration of mitigation actions with existing local authorities, policies, programs, and resources; and
• Discussion of existing programs (including the NFIP), plans, and policies that could be used to implement mitigation, as well as document past projects.
Elemen
t D: Plan Update, Evaluation, and Implementation (Plan Updates Only) How does the Plan go above and beyond minimum requirements to document the 5-year Evaluation and Implementation measures with respect to:
• Status of previously recommended mitigation actions;
• Identification of barriers or obstacles to successful implementation or completion of mitigation actions, along with possible solutions for overcoming risk; • Documentation of annual reviews and committee involvement; • Identification of a lead person to take ownership of, and champion the Plan; • Reducing risks from natural hazards and serving as a guide for decisions makers as they commit resources to reducing the effects of natural hazards; • An approach to evaluating future conditions (i.e. socio-economic, environmental, demographic, change in built environment etc.);
• Discussion of how changing conditions and opportunities could impact community resilience in the long term; and
• Discussion of how the mitigation goals and actions support the long-term community vision for increased resilience.

B. Resources for Implementing Your Approved Plan
Ideas may be offered on moving the mitigation plan forward and continuing the relationship with key mitigation stakeholders such as the following:
• What FEMA assistance (funding) programs are available (for example, Hazard Mitigation Assistance (HMA)) to the jurisdiction(s) to assist with implementing the mitigation actions?
• What other Federal programs (National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP), Community Rating System (CRS), Risk MAP, etc.) may provide assistance for mitigation activities? • What publications, technical guidance or other resources are available to the jurisdiction(s) relevant to the identified mitigation actions? • Are there upcoming trainings/workshops (Benefit-Cost Analysis (BCA), HMA, etc.) to assist the jurisdictions(s)?
• What mitigation actions can be funded by other Federal agencies (for example, U.S.
Forest Service, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Smart Growth, Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Sustainable Communities, etc.) and/or state and local agencies? Tulare County

SECTION 3:
MULTI-JURISDICTION SUMMARY SHEET (OPTIONAL)
INSTRUCTIONS: For multi-jurisdictional plans, a Multi-jurisdiction Summary Spreadsheet may be completed by listing each participating jurisdiction, which required Elements for each jurisdiction were ‘Met’ or ‘Not Met,’ and when the adoption resolutions were received. This Summary Sheet does not imply that a mini-plan be developed for each jurisdiction; it should be used as an optional worksheet to ensure that each jurisdiction participating in the Plan has been documented and has met the requirements for those Elements (A through E).
