Phone 612-596-0250
February 1, 2018
On behalf of Hennepin County (HCEM), is pleased to present the 2018 Hennepin County
Multi-Jurisdictional Hazard Mitigation Plan (Plan) Update.
The purpose of this plan is to identify the Counties major hazards, assess the vulnerability, and
to reduce risk using a variety of data and best practice measures to implement mitigation
projects. The plan identifies goals and recommended actions and initiatives for each jurisdiction
within this county to reduce and/prevent injury and damage from hazardous events. The intent
of the Plan is to provide unified guidance for ensuring coordination of recovery-related hazard
mitigation efforts following a major emergency/disaster, and to implement an on-going
comprehensive county hazard mitigation strategy intended to reduce the impact of loss of life
and property due to effects of natural hazards.
Through continued collaboration with each jurisdiction by providing staff expertise, support,
training and education opportunities, Hennepin County Emergency Management will continue
to increase its resiliency to the effects of natural hazards.

1.1. INTRODUCTION
The mitigation strategy provides a blueprint for Hennepin County to follow to become less vulnerable to
its identified hazards. It is based on general consensus of the Planning Team, the findings and conclusions
of the Risk Assessment, and input from the public and stakeholders. The mitigation strategy includes
hazard mitigation objectives and hazard mitigation actions. The objectives serve as the guiding principles
for local future mitigation policy and project administration; actions serve as implemental items that
support and provide a way to reach those objectives. The mitigation strategy includes a process for
evaluating mitigation actions to ensure actions are feasible based on community capabilities, tied to plan
goals, and effective in reducing hazard losses for current and future structures and populations. This
section outlines the goals, objectives, and mitigation action evaluation and prioritization process
undertaken in Hennepin County. Each jurisdiction provided objectives, actions and prioritization and are
included in the Mitigation Action Plan (MAP), which can be found for each jurisdiction located in Section
3: Mitigation Plans
1.2. 2018 HENNEPIN COUNTY HAZARD MITIGATION PLAN GOALS
The plan goals are broad, but reflect current needs and priorities of the county and are intended to
reduce long-term vulnerability to all hazards identified in this plan. The 2018 Hennepin County AHMJMP
goals were developed by the Mitigation Steering Committee and presented at the planning team kickoff
meeting in July 2015. The planning team reviewed the goals and opted to keep the goals as written. The
mitigation planning goals are listed in TABLE 1-2A
TABLE 1-2A Hennepin County Mitigation Goals
Goal Number Goal
1 Minimize loss of life, injury, and damage to property, the economy, and the
environment from natural and man-made hazards
2 Increase education, outreach, and awareness
3 Protect natural and cultural resources
4 Identify areas of greatest impact from hazards
5 Enhance hazard mitigation coordination and communication with federal, state
and local governments.

SECTION 2 MITIGATION ACTION PLAN
2.1. SELECTION OF MITIGATION ACTIONS
Selected objectives and actions are provided in the MAP, which is presented in the following section. The
MAP is a functional plan for action and is considered to be the most essential outcome of the mitigation
planning process. The MAP includes a prioritized listing of proposed hazard mitigation actions (policies
and projects) for the county and each participating jurisdiction that could be implemented. Each action
includes accompanying information such as the department responsible for completing the action,
timeline, and cost estimate.
The MAP provides each jurisdiction or assigned individuals a description of their plan in implementing
mitigation actions providing an opportunity to reduce vulnerability over time. Further, the map provides
a mechanism to monitor progress over time. Each action also considers the benefits and costs of an action,
to ensure it is cost effective, which is included in the priority.
2.2. PRIORITIZATION OF MITIGATION ACTIONS
All actions are considered cost-effective including a cost-benefit review for prioritization. In addition, local
knowledge or need, may necessitate a change in priority from the guidelines presented for priority below:
A priority number scale has been used with 1 being top priority and sequential numbers being less
priority. The scale may be limited on the number of identified actions for any objective listed.
• Low Priority Projects: Projects that is associated with low or infrequent hazard probability and
least likely to prevent loss of life. (Scale 8-10)
• Medium Priority Projects: Projects associated with a less probable hazard with potential to
save lives or damage to property. (Scale 4-7)
• High Priority Projects: Projects identified in response to one or more of the highest probability
hazards combined with the ability to save lives. (Scale 1-3)
2.3. IMPLEMENTATION OF MITIGATION ACTIONS
The MAP includes several measures to ensure actions are implemented. HCEM will serve as the
coordinating agency. However, each action is tied to a responsible agency or individual who will be
responsible for leading the completion of the mitigation action. By assigning responsibility, it increases
accountability and the likelihood of action.
In addition to the assignment of a local lead department or agency, an implementation time period or a
specific implementation date has been considered in order to assess whether actions are being
implemented in a timely fashion. Further, the county will seek outside funding sources to implement
mitigation projects in both the pre-disaster and post-disaster environments. Potential funding sources
have been identified for proposed actions listed in the MAP.

Summary of Project
A full scale exercise was conducted on September 18, 2010 involving the
Hennepin County WMD Team, 55th Civil Support Unit, and Richfield Fire
Department. This exercise was listed in our 2010 Mitigation plan. The
exercise focused on a major biological spill at Best Buy World Headquarters.
We learned several things from the exercise. We discovered that
communications with different agencies needed to improve, the police and
fire departments resources were quickly used up thus we needed our
mutual aid partners, and with a facility as large as Best Buy we needed

Section 4 Minnesota Mitigation Crosswalk
4.1 Minnesota Crosswalk – Local Hazard Mitigation Plan Review Tool March 2013
The Minnesota Crosswalk is a supplement to FEMA’s Local Mitigation Plan Review Guide, October 2011.
This document is provided to assist planners in meeting the requirements in the development of local
multi-jurisdiction mitigation plans. FEMA’s Mitigation Plan Review Tool lists all of the elements but not the
requirements as in the previous FEMA Crosswalk.
The Regulation Checklist lists the requirements under each element for easy reference. The planner should
indicate the location of the plan to indicate where the requirement is met.
All jurisdictions participating in the mitigation planning process must show evidence of participation in
Elements A thru E of the Regulation Checklist. The Multi-Jurisdictional Summary Sheet from FEMA guidance
was edited for use by planners. The summary sheet is a way to track participation by jurisdiction.
HSEM asks that a Minnesota Crosswalk be completed when the plan is sent to HSEM for review. This
document will facilitate the state review by illustrating where and how requirements were met.

6.1. Terms
Multi-Jurisdictional Hazard Mitigation Plan- a countywide plan that identifies risks and ways to minimize
damage by natural and manmade disasters. The plan is a comprehensive resource document that serves
many purposes such as enhancing public awareness, creating a decision tool for management, promoting
compliance with State and Federal program requirements, enhancing local policies for hazard mitigation
capability, and providing inter-jurisdictional coordination.
Area Planning Group- One of four groups in Hennepin County divided by region that meet routinely to
gather information, discuss issues, develop goals, prioritize goals, create approaches, prioritize
approaches, and develop plans. Each step is necessary to the overall development and creation of the
regional or jurisdictional plan.
Disaster Mitigation Act (DMA 2000)- is Public Law 106-390, also called DMA2K, is U.S. federal legislation
passed in 2000 that amended provisions of the United States Code related to disaster relief. The amended
provisions are named after Robert Stafford, who led the passage of the Stafford Disaster Relief and
Emergency Assistance Act of 1988.
Hazard Mitigation Program Grant - to help communities implement hazard mitigation measures following
a Presidential major disaster declaration. Hazard mitigation is any action taken to reduce or eliminate long
term risk to people and property from natural hazards. The HMPG is authorized under Section 404 of the
Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act.
Incident Action Plan- a written plan that defines the incident objectives and reflects the tactics necessary
to manage an incident during an operational period.
Operational Period- An operational period is the period of time scheduled for executing a given set of
operational actions. The length of the operational period is typically 12 to 24 hours.
Planning Team- A team whose members usually belong to different groups, functions and are assigned to
activities for the same project.
Public Law 106-390- to establish a national disaster hazard mitigation program— (1) to reduce the loss of
life and property, human suffering, economic disruption, and disaster assistance costs resulting from
natural disasters; and (2) to provide a source of pre-disaster hazard mitigation funding that will assist States
and local governments (including Indian tribes) in implementing effective hazard mitigation measures that
are designed to ensure the continued functionality of critical services and facilities after a natural disaster.
Risk Assessment- is the determination of quantitative or qualitative estimate of risk related to a well-
defined situation and a recognized threat (also called hazard assessment).
Social Media- are computer-mediated tools that allow people or companies to create, share, or exchange
information, career interests, ideas, and pictures/videos in virtual communities and networks.

Steering Committee- a committee that provides guidance, direction and control to a project within an
organization.
Vulnerability Assessment- the process of identifying, quantifying, and prioritizing (or ranking) the
vulnerabilities in a system.
Whole Community- an approach to emergency management that reinforces the fact that FEMA is only one
part of our nation’s emergency management team; that we must leverage all of the resources of our
collective team in preparing for, protecting against, responding to, recovering from and mitigating against
all hazards; and that collectively we must meet the needs of the entire community in each of these areas.
Working Group- is an ad hoc group of subject-matter experts working together to achieve specified goals.
Title 44 CFR Part 201- Identification name for Emergency Management and Assistance- specifically
Mitigation Planning within the Code of Federal Regulation. (1)-The purpose of this part is to provide
information on the policies and procedures for mitigation planning as required by the provisions of section
322 of the Stafford Act, 42 U.S.C. 5165. (2)-The purpose of mitigation planning is for State, local, and Indian
tribal governments to identify the natural hazards that impact them, to identify actions and activities to
reduce any losses from those hazards, and to establish a coordinated process to implement the plan, taking
advantage of a wide range of resources.

Annex A: Applicable Federal and State Regulations
A. The Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act (Stafford Act), as amended by
the Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000, provides the legal basis for state, tribal, and local governments
to undertake risk-based approaches to reducing natural hazard risks through mitigation planning.
Specifically, the Stafford Act requires state, tribal, and local governments to develop and adopt
FEMA-approved hazard mitigation plans as a condition for receiving certain types of non-
emergency disaster assistance.
B. Another law relevant to hazard mitigation planning is the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as
amended (42 U.S.C. § 4104c), which authorizes the Flood Mitigation Assistance (FMA) grant
program with the goal of reducing or eliminating claims under the National Flood Insurance
Program (NFIP). FMA provides funding to states, territories, federally-recognized tribes, and local
communities for flood hazard mitigation projects, plan development, and management costs.
C. Title 44, Chapter 1, Part 201 (44 CFR Part 201) of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) contains
requirements and procedures to implement the hazard mitigation planning provisions of the
Stafford Act.
D. FEMA policies are external, authoritative statements that articulate the Agency's intent and
direction to guide decision-making and achieve rational outcomes for Agency activities. The
following mitigation planning guidance documents constitute FEMA’s official policy on and
interpretation of the hazard mitigation planning requirements in 44 CFR Part 201.

Background:
Hennepin County Multi-Jurisdictional Hazard Mitigation Plan
Volume 3- Community and Mitigation Strategies
368
The primary aim of mitigation is to protect lives by increasing the survivability of disaster situations.
Mitigation also makes good economic sense. According to the Federal Emergency Management Agency
(FEMA), for every federal dollar spent on pre-disaster mitigation, six dollars are saved in disaster response
and recovery costs.
The 2018 Hennepin County All-Hazard Mitigation Plan is significantly improved from previous plans.
Extensive research has been focused on detailed assessments of the natural hazards effecting the county.
New knowledge has been employed to better focus mitigation efforts locally. This work will continue so
that future mitigation projects can be directed to the places most in need of them.
Current request: The Federal Emergency Management Agency requires a format adoption document to
complete the approval process for the county's Plan. This request seeks adoption of the 2018 Hennepin
County All Hazards Mitigation Plan.
Recommendation from County Administrator: Recommend Approval
