County Emergency Management Agency/Office of Homeland Security spearheaded this effort to complete a comprehensive countywide Mitigation Plan. Their dedication to this mitigation planning effort is seen in the results of having participation from the County as well as the incorporated jurisdictions. Erie County is subject to natural hazards that threaten life and health and have caused extensive property damage. To better understand these natural hazards and their impacts on people and property and to identify ways to reduce those impacts, the County’s Emergency Management Agency (EMA) undertook this countywide Mitigation Plan. Most mitigation activities need funding. Under the Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000 (DMA2K, 42 USC 5165), a mitigation plan is a requirement for Federal mitigation funds. Therefore, a mitigation plan will both guide the best use of mitigation funding and meet the prerequisite for obtaining such funds from the Department of Homeland Security’s Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). This Mitigation Plan meets the criteria as set forth by FEMA in the DMA2K and provides a community with a “comprehensive guide” for future mitigation efforts as they relate to the hazards that affect their community. This Mitigation Plan was developed under the guidance of a Core Group of individuals from communities and agencies throughout Erie County. The Core Group met four separate times during the planning process to discuss the hazards that affect the county, the problems associated with these hazards, potential mitigation alternatives to minimize the effect of these hazards and goals that they would like to see achieved within the county. Erie County has experienced many natural disasters in the past one hundred years. The Core Group evaluated these hazards and chose to address the following hazards based on their impact on human health and property damage: severe storms (lightning, hail and high winds), floods, winter storms (snow and ice), lake/stream bank erosion, droughts and earthquakes. With the hazards identified, a vulnerability assessment was completed for Erie County. This assessment reviews how vulnerable the county is to property damage, threats to public health and safety, and adverse impact on the local economy. It also evaluates the location and likely damage to critical facilities and other structures from different scenarios of strikes by the five hazards. As part of this assessment, a multi-hazard map was produced to illustrate some of the hazard areas and locations of structures and critical facilities with respect to these hazard areas. The

  • Ground Water Pollution Potential of Erie County, Ohio
    GROUND WATER POLLUTION POTENTIAL OF ERIE COUNTY, OHIO BY KELLY C. SMITH ERM-MIDWEST, INC GROUND WATER POLLUTION POTENTIAL REPORT NO. 16 OHIO DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES DIVISION OF WATER GROUND WATER RESOURCES SECTION JUNE, 1994 ABSTRACT A ground water pollution potential mapping program for Ohio has been developed under the direction of the Division of Water, Ohio Department of Natural Resources, using the DRASTIC mapping process. The DRASTIC system consists of two major elements: the designation of mappable units termed hydrogeologic settings, and the superposition of a relative rating system for pollution potential. Hydrogeologic settings form the basis of the system and incorporate the major hydrogeologic factors that affect and control ground water movement and occurrence including: depth to water, net recharge, aquifer media, soil media, topography, impact of the vadose zone media, and hydraulic conductivity of the aquifer. These factors, which form the acronym DRASTIC, are incorporated into a relative ranking scheme that uses a combination of weights and ratings to produce a numerical value called the ground water pollution potential index. Hydrogeologic settings are combined with the pollution potential indexes to create units that can be graphically displayed on a map. Erie County lies within the central lowlands physiographic province and consists of two physiographic sections: the Eastern Lake Plains section and the Till Plains section (Fenneman, 1938). The county is covered by a variable thickness of glacial till, lacustrine deposits, and outwash. These unconsolidated glacial deposits are underlain by Bedford shale, Berea sandstone, and limestone. Ground water yields are dependant on the type of aquifer and vary greatly throughout the county.

Earl Stewart, the Tongass Forest Supervisor is the responsible official for the Draft ROD and FEIS for the POW LLA Project. These objections supplement the more extensive objections submitted by Earthjustice on behalf of SEACC and others on December 21, 2018. Based on the corrected legal notice published in the Ketchikan Daily News on November 16, 2018, these objections are timely. SEACC and ACAT submitted timely, specific, and substantive comments regarding the proposed project on the draft EIS for this project on June 18, 2018. We submitted those comments via both email and direct mail. For purposes of 36 C.F.R. § 218.8(d)(l), the objecting parties may be reached via the SEACC contact information indicated in the signature block. For purposes of 36 C.F.R. § 218.8(d)(3), SEACC is the lead objector. I. POW LLA PROJECT'S CONDITION-BASED PLANNING APPROACH VIOLATES NEPA. The Draft ROD proposes to authorize a wide array of site-specific activities over the next 15 years under the umbrella of this FEIS, including old-growth logging, new road construction, and management of invasive plants with herbicides.1 It tries to do so, however, without providing agency decision-makers and the public with the detailed, site-specific analysis 1See POW LLA FEIS, Summary, at S-1 and S-2.
