    Multi-Jurisdictional Risk Assessment As described in the previous section on Profiling Hazards, each of the participating jurisdictions evaluated the hazards identified for the planning area. Each jurisdiction was asked to score the hazards profiled based on the methodology in Attachment III-1 for the following categories: --Historical Occurrence --Probability --Vulnerability --Maximum Geographic Extent --Severity of Impacts --Speed of Onset Each jurisdiction was asked to score the hazards based on their own local perspective and to note any additional information for the profile specific to its jurisdiction. The individual community scores were combined and averaged to provide the basis for determining the ranking and priority of the identified hazards for the whole planning area. The following individual jurisdiction risk assessments provide comparable data regarding population and land area. A geographic summary notes specific features that distinguish the jurisdiction from the planning area as a whole. The hazard priority provides a list of the top ranking hazards based on the hazard profile scoring and adjusted as needed based on local experience. This section also explains any differences in hazard ranking compared to the planning area. Finally, the Critical Facilities section summarizes structures identified as important to the jurisdiction that may be vulnerable to hazard impacts. The specific lists of Critical facilities were mapped in relation to the 100-year floodplain as presented in Map_(insert map reference as appropriate_____ Andalusia --2000 Census population 1,050 -- 0.7% total County population --Ranks 11 of 16 jurisdictions in size --Land area 1.17 sq. miles --0.2% total planning area --Rank 12 out of 16 jurisdictions Geography: Andalusia is located in the lower southwest portion of Rock Island County on the Mississippi River below the confluence of the Rock River.

    War of 1812 by Beth Carvey The Sauk and Meskwaki and the War of 1812 Prelude to War The War of 1812 was a significant event in Sauk and Meskwaki history and also for many other native nations who resided along and near the Mississippi River. The War of 1812 was actually two wars: an international war fought between the United States and Great Britain in the east and an Indian war fought in the west. This article is the first of a four-part series which will explore the War of 1812 in terms of native peoples’ points of view, the military actions that occurred in the western frontier theater, and the consequences for the Sauk and Meskwaki that resulted from the American victory. In 1812 the western frontier was comprised of the Mississippi, Illinois, and Missouri River regions, encompassing parts of present-day Wisconsin, Illinois, and northwest Missouri. More than ten different native nations, including the Sauk and Meskwaki, lived on these lands with an estimated population of 25,000 people. After the Louisiana Purchase in 1803 the native people of the region had been growing increasingly unhappy with the United States. Four main reasons were at the heart of this unhappiness: arrogance and ignorance on the part of many American officials; illegal white settlement on native lands; a number of treaties that dispossessed tribes of their lands; and economic matters, specifically the fur trade. The Sauk and Meskwaki had poor relations with the United States government since the signing of the fraudulent Treaty of 1804, whereby the two nations ceded over 50 million acres of land to the United States.
