Introduction • YCWA experienced over $2,230,000 in damages to access roads and water control facilities • Debris clearance • Rock/Mud slides • Irrigation channel damage • Map of damage locations
Summary of Damage versus Projected Vulnerability • YCWA estimated vulnerability to severe winter storms prior to these events. These are included in the YCWA Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan.
What Did We Learn? • Estimations by responsible agencies with local knowledge are going to be better than those by Plan developers • PROVIDE YOUR ASSET INFORMATION! • If not, future storm damage may exceed MHMP estimations • This could result in a limit on available funds in Declared Disasters • Each disaster presents knowledge for future mitigation opportunities
