Re: Adoption of the Orange County Regional Water and Wastewater Multi-
Hazard Mitigation Plan Update
Dear Ms. Hubbard,
The Yorba Linda Water District recognizes the natural and manmade hazards
that can affect the Orange County water and wastewater community. Due to the
potential effects those disasters can have on our ability to provide (water and/or
wastewater) services to our customers we determined it was of benefit to
participate in the Orange County Regional Water and Wastewater Multi-Hazard
Mitigation Plan Update.
Yorba Linda Water District participated with the Hazard Mitigation Working
Group to identify additional critical infrastructure that is vulnerable to natural
hazards. Based on the information developed, both regional and individual
agency goals, objectives and actions were prepared. The Pre-Draft Hazard
Mitigation plan was advertised and shared with the public at two meetings- one
held in the north Orange County City of Buena Park and one at Moulton Niguel
Water District offices in south Orange County.
The final draft plan was presented to Yorba Linda Water District's Board of
Directors for review and adoption as our official agency hazard mitigation plan
update. It is recognized that this plan is adopted in coordination with Malicious
Event Vulnerability Assessment and Emergency Response Plan. Staff will
utilize both documents as a guideline for future hazard mitigation actions,
projects and grant proposals.
This letter serves to document that the Board of Directors of Yorba Linda Water
District adopted the OC HAZMIT plan on February 23, 2012 with the
recognition that the State Office of Emergency Services and the Federal
Emergency Management Agency may suggest required changes to the plan,
which will be incorporated.
Sincerely,
Kenneth Vecchiarelli, PE
