  • CHAPTER 2. Hazard Profiles and Loss Estimation
    CHAPTER 2. Hazard Profiles and Loss Estimation Following the guidance provided in FEMA’s mitigation planning how-to guide, Understanding Your Risks: Identifying Hazards and Estimating Losses (FEMA 386-2), the Jersey County Hazard Mitigation Planning Team initially reviewed local records and existing mitigation plans, conducted informal interviews with local experts from the public and private sectors – including emergency responders and individuals at institutions of higher education – and researched data available on state and federal Websites to ascertain the natural hazards that posed any potential risk to Jersey County. This initial stage of research indicated that additional research should be conducted on the following hazards: earthquakes, extreme heat, floods, hailstorms, land subsidence, severe winter storms, tornadoes, wildfires, and windstorms. Of these hazards, the following were deemed the most prevalent: earthquakes, floods, severe thunderstorms (a category that encompasses hailstorms and windstorms), severe winter storms and tornadoes. These natural hazards and their potential impact on the county are profiled in detail in this chapter. Justification for the exclusion of extreme heat, land subsidence and wildfires from this more detailed profile is provided in a concluding section at the end of this chapter. 2.1 Earthquakes General Information about Earthquakes For hundreds of millions of years, the forces of plate tectonics have shaped the Earth as plates move slowly over, under, and past each other. Most of the time, this movement is gradual. However, sometimes the plates lock together, creating tension. When the accumulated energy grows strong enough, the plates break free, causing the ground to shake. This sudden, rapid shaking of the earth caused by the breaking and shifting of rock beneath the earth’s surface is an earthquake.1 Shaking from earthquakes can collapse buildings and bridges, disrupt gas, electric, and phone services, or trigger landslides, avalanches, or fires.
