From manmade catastrophes - ranging from hazardous material spills to cyber attacks - to natural adversities like blizzards or tornadoes, Chester County officials want to be prepared.
Toward that end, the county is in the process of updating its countywide hazard mitigation plan, focused on reducing the impact and risk from future disasters. The plan outlines action that can be taken now, before the emergency begins. Public input and local knowledge is being sought to assist in ensuring that the concerns of the community are covered.
The plan is broken into two sections. The first contains an overview of the hazards facing the county and the countywide hazard mitigation actions. The second half focuses on the hazards, capabilities and mitigation strategy specific to each municipality.
The draft version of the plan and a comment form is available online for review at www.ReadyChesco.org. The deadline for feedback is March 1.
