wastewater) services to our customers we determined it was of benefit to

Mitigation.
Yorba Linda Water District participated in the year long process with the I lazard
Mitigation Working Group (staff representatives from the 20 agencies) to
j
identify critical infrastructure that is vulnerable to natural hazards. Base([ 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 three meetings.
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.
ft 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 October 26, 2006 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.
