Multi-Hazard # 5 Proposed Action Item: Alignment with Plan Goals: Goal 6 Coordinate efforts with Lane Council of Governments to develop new hazard maps for the Eugene/Springfield Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan. Rationale for Proposed Action Item: The Eugene/Springfield Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan completed its 5-year update in October 2009. The current maps in the plan adequately show the presence of natural hazards in the community and the location of critical facilities, but should be updated to show changes in city boundaries, additional critical facilities, and incorporate new hazard information when new information becomes available. Within 1 year after the plan update, the Eugene/Springfield Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan should update maps for the following natural hazards: 1)Earthquake showing amplification, liquefaction, and landslide-induced 2)Landslide showing debris flow and slope instability 3)Flood showing floodplain 4)Wildfire showing forest cover in the Eugene/Springfield area Ideas for Implementation: Set up a meeting between the Lane Council of Governments and the GIS departments of Eugene and Springfield to coordinate efforts in developing natural hazards mitigation maps. Develop a map template that all the jurisdictions can work from. Review existing critical facilities displayed in maps and update as needed. When available, use new information to update hazard, including earthquake information from the Oregon Department of Geology and Mineral Industries (DOGAMI).
