Coquelle Trails is the first of what is expected to be several installments that will complete this renewed Cultural Geography Project. Although ships and sailors made contact with Indians in earlier years, the focus of this report begins with the first historical land-based contacts between Indians and foreigners along the rivers and beaches of Oregon’s south coast. Those few and brief encounters are documented in poorly written and often incomplete journals of men who, without maps or a true fix on their locations, wandered into and across the lands of Hanis, Miluk, and Athapaskan speaking Indians in what is today Coos and Curry Counties. Those wanderings were the first surges of the tidal wave of America’s Manifest Destiny that would soon wash over the Indians and their country.

  • LANE COUNTY OREGON MULTI-JURISDICTION HAZARD MITIGATION PLAN Page | 46
    3. RISK ASSESSMENT 44 CFR Requirement §201.6(c) (2) [The plan shall include] A risk assessment that provides the factual basis for activities proposed in the strategy to reduce losses from identified hazards. Local risk assessments must provide sufficient information to enable the jurisdiction to identify and prioritize appropriate mitigation actions to reduce losses from identified hazards The purpose of risk assessment is to identify and describe hazards that affect Lane County and analyze potential losses for human life and material assets. Through better understanding of potential hazards and the degree of risk they pose, more successful mitigation strategies can be developed and implemented. This risk assessment follows the four-step process described in the FEMA publication 386-2, Understanding Your Risks: Identifying Hazards and Estimating Losses, listed as follows: Step 1: Identify Hazards Step 2: Profile Hazard Events Step 3: Inventory Assets Step 4: Estimate Losses This section is organized into three subsections that address the four steps of the risk assessment process. 3.1 Identifying Hazards. This subsection addresses Step 1 and lists the hazards considered during the planning process and those ultimately profiled in the plan. It also describes methods, definitions and data sources used for the hazard identification and profile process. 3.2 Hazard Profile. This subsection addresses Step 2 and presents a detailed outline for each identified hazard. Each hazard profile is addressed as a plan subsection and includes a general description, affected geographic area, and discussion of previous occurrences, probability of future occurrence, magnitude and severity and an assessment of overall vulnerability to each hazard.
