This plan is in accordance with existing federal and territorial statutes and understandings of the various departments involved. It will be reviewed and recertified periodically by the Director of the Virgin Islands Territorial Emergency Management Agency (VITEMA). All recipients are requested to advise VITEMA of any and all changes which might result in its improvement or increase in its usefulness.

It identifies the role of territorial government and coordinating Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) and private sector partners before, during, and after a disaster, large-scale emergency, or event affecting the US Virgin Islands. It establishes the concepts and policies under which all elements of territorial government and coordinating NGO’s and private sector partners will operate during emergencies and provides the framework within which more detailed emergency plans or procedures can be developed and maintained. This plan is compatible with federal plans and statuses in order to provide prompt, effective and seamless assistance to districts when federal assistance is requested. In addition, executive branch agencies and instrumentalities are required to develop, maintain and ensure their ability to implement an all-hazards continuity plan. These continuity plans must include alternate operating capabilities and identify the functions, applications and processes of the agency or instrumentalities that are critical, time-sensitive, and essential to restore and continue in an emergency or disaster. Agency functions critical to territorial emergency response and recovery operations shall have restoration priority. Top priorities for incident management are to: 1. Save lives and protect the health and safety of the public, responders, and recovery workers; 2. Protect property and mitigate damages and impacts to individuals, communities and the environment; 3. Protect and restore critical infrastructure and key resources; and 4. Facilitate recovery of individuals, businesses, communities, governments, and the environment. Scope Preparedness, response, recovery, and mitigation strategies are largely based on analyses of natural and technological hazards with a history of or potential for impacts in the US Virgin Islands. The TEOP is designed to address all hazards identified in the Threat and Hazards Identification and Risk Assessment (THIRA). The TEOP covers the full range of complex and constantly changing requirements in anticipation of, or response to, threats or acts of terrorism, major disasters, other emergencies, and events within or affecting the Territory. The TEOP establishes interagency, multi-jurisdictional, and public/private mechanisms for territorial agency involvement in domestic incident management operations. These mechanisms include coordination structure and processes for incident requiring: Local-to-local support through Territory Mutual Aid (TMA); Territory support to St. Croix District and St. Thomas-St. John- Water Island District State-to-Territory support through the Emergency Management Assistance Compact (EMAC) 5 Territorial Emergency Operations Plan December 2019 or other appropriate instruments; and Public and private sector incident management integration. This Plan is applicable to all agencies of the Territory and coordinating NGOs and private sector partners that may be requested to provide assistance or conduct operations in response to an incident or event. This Plan also provides the foundation for the organization and coordination of short-term recovery. To ensure the Territory’s ability to implement this Plan, each territorial agency that is tasked with a responsibility in the TEOP or supporting plans and annexes shall develop, maintain, and ensure their ability to implement response plans in support of the TEOP, as required by Code of Virgin Islands Title 23, Section 10- Territorial Emergency Management Act. Situation Overview 1. Vulnerability Analysis (Demographics) a.

  • United States Virgin Islands Territorial Hazard Mitigation Plan Final, July 2019
    The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), in implementing the Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000, initiated far-reaching programs and policies that affected the approach to emergency management of every level of government. The legislation reinforces the importance of hazard mitigation planning and assigns specific responsibilities to state governments, which also apply to its territories such as the US Virgin Islands. The underlying purpose of the United States Virgin Islands Territorial Hazard Mitigation Plan is to identify strategies and actions that can be taken before a disaster strikes, and that can significantly reduce human suffering, damage to property, and the long- term economic impact of natural hazards. In September 2017, an unprecedented event occurred were two catastrophic Category 5 hurricanes tore through the US Virgin Islands within 14 days of each other. The storms crippled the Territory, destroying communications, power grid, and other infrastructures. Homes and businesses were demolished beyond repair. As the territory rebuilds, Hazard and Risk Assessments have been analyzed to determine the adequate Mitigative Efforts to prevent similar destruction from happening again with future storms. Capacity building and collaborative community efforts have also been incorporated into the plan update, which would create initiatives where the Territory would be able to be ultimately self-sustainable. States and territories are required to prepare and submit a mitigation plan and then review and update the plan on a five-year planning cycle The Virgin Islands Territorial Emergency Management Agency (VITEMA) has established a Hazard Mitigation Steering Committee to provide oversight and assist in the Plan Update process. See pages 1-8 as examples, which provide an overview.

  • Tropical Storm Lee (AL132011) 2-5 September 2011
    Tropical Cyclone Report Tropical Storm Lee (AL132011) 2-5 September 2011 Daniel P. Brown National Hurricane Center 15 December 2011 Lee was a tropical storm that evolved into a subtropical cyclone before making landfall in southern Louisiana. Lee and its remnants contributed to heavy rainfall and extensive flooding over portions of the eastern United States. a. Synoptic History Lee developed from a tropical wave that moved off the west coast of Africa on 18 August. The vigorous wave was accompanied by a broad low pressure area that passed over the Cape Verde Islands on 19-20 August. The low, however, moved northwestward and encountered hostile environmental conditions that prevented development. Meanwhile, the southern portion of the wave continued westward across the tropical Atlantic and eastern Caribbean Sea during the next week or so, and as it moved across the western Caribbean Sea and into the southeastern Gulf of Mexico on 30 and 31 August, shower and thunderstorm activity gradually increased and gained organization. Satellite and surface data indicate that a broad area of low pressure formed from this system over the central Gulf of Mexico on 1 September. Data from a NOAA Hurricane Hunter aircraft mission late that day showed that the circulation became better defined, and it is estimated that this system became a tropical depression around 0000 UTC 2 September, centered about 190 n mi southwest of the mouth of the Mississippi River. After development, the depression moved slowly northward and strengthened into a tropical storm 12 h later. The “best track” chart of Lee’s path is given in Fig.

All views and opinions expressed therein remain the sole responsibility of the author, and do not necessarily represent those of the Faculty. ABSTRACT The Caribbean Islands of Dominica and Saint Lucia are characterized by their intense heavy rainfall and steep slopes which give rise to frequent landslide occurrences. This has affected their limited road network greatly in the past causing road damage and impeding vehicular traffic. In this research, the landslide susceptibility of different sections of the major roads of Dominica and Saint Lucia are analysed by characterizing them by their topography, geology and soil type. Unlike Dominica, some efforts have been made in Saint Lucia to manage the landslides triggered by rainfall focusing on road related landslides and, here, the methods utilized in Saint Lucia are assessed for their applicability in Dominica.
