The County has a strong industrial and manufacturing base and holds a top 10 ranking in the State for agriculture in categories that include dairy, soybeans and cattle. Historically the County is famous for its mint production due to the rich black soil, and celebrates its mint farming heritage annually at the “Mint Festival”. The southern portion of the County includes, or partially, includes the cities of DeWitt, Grand Ledge and East Lansing, along with Bath Charter Clinton Township, Watertown Charter Township and County DeWitt Charter Township, which is home to the Capital Region International Airport. The City of St. Johns (centrally located in the County) was made the county seat in 1857 and was This document represents the current incorporated as a city in 1904.

  • MHMP 2014 UPDATE PART 3 III Humanrelated
    III. HUMAN-RELATED HAZARDS The following list summarizes the significant human-related hazards covered in this section: 1. Catastrophic Incidents (National Emergencies) 2. Civil Disturbances 3. Nuclear Attack 4. Public Health Emergencies 5. Terrorism and Similar Criminal Activities These hazards all tie in with each other in various ways, and by placing them all in the same section of this document, this updated 2014 edition of the Michigan Hazard Mitigation Plan intends to make it easier for planners and emergency management personnel to learn about and consider the many aspects of these threats, risks, activities, conditions, and incidents. The new hazard section, Catastrophic Incidents (National Emergencies), was primarily inspired by some of the states of alert and response activities that Michigan had to adopt in the past decade for incidents that primarily took place outside of its own borders. The main examples were the 9/11/2001 terrorist attacks (and subsequent anthrax incidents and threats), and the Gulf Coast disaster involving Hurricanes Katrina and Rita in 2005. It makes sense to consider, in advance, these types of incidents as well as other types of large-scale disasters that could occur in the future, which require a large-scale national response even though the actual incident itself may occur only within the borders of a few states outside of Michigan’s immediate environment. Preparedness, planning, exercising, and mutual aid arrangements are the main “mitigation” activities proposed for this hazard during its initial phase of consideration in this 2014 edition of the Michigan Hazard Mitigation Plan. Some catastrophic incidents may involve other types of human-related hazards.

I am very thankful for their help and emotional encouragement throughout my graduate career. I also want to thank my fellow graduate students in the Geography department. The advice, venting, laughter, and intellectual conversations (serious or otherwise) that took place in Room 2 were greatly needed at many times throughout the past two years, and my colleagues were always there to provide it.

  • Bath, Michigan in 1927?
    UNCLASSIFIED A Fact Sheet form the Worldwide Incidents Team National Counterterrorism Center 8 October 2007 Did you know the first suicide car bombing took place in Bath, Michigan in 1927? On 18 May 1927, at 9:45 AM, in Bath, Michigan, United States, a timed explosive device exploded in the basement of the Bath Consolidated School, killing 38 children, two teachers, one school official, and two civilians; injuring 67 children and five teachers; and destroying the north wing of the school. At about 10:15 AM, the assailant drove his car to the school and detonated his vehicle-borne improvised explosive device (VBIED) at the rescue scene, killing another child, one school official, a postmaster, and two civilians; and injuring three other civilians. No group claimed responsibility, but authorities believed a lone wolf was responsible. Remains of a Ford pickup truck from the Bath School Disaster on 18 May 1927 Called the “Bath School Disaster,”1 it surpassed the 1920 Wall Street bombing as the single worst mass-murder attack in the United States2 and held that dubious title until the Oklahoma City bombing in 1995. The attack was so horrific that headlines around the nation carried the tragic story for days until Charles Lindbergh crossed the Atlantic Ocean setting a more positive American record. Some argue this attack does not meet the terrorism criteria. The motivation, however, does involve the issue of taxation. The perpetrator was Andrew Kehoe, a school board member opposed to a property tax levied to build the school. He credited the new property tax for his financial hardship, and his farm property was placed into foreclosure.3 Page 1 of 2 Document No.
