An additional two species were recognized as possibly occurring in Mississippi as well. Diagnoses for all of the genera and species in the state are provided and keys to the genera as well as all of the species were made. Species were found in every county within Mississippi and are representative of the Bariditae fauna of the southeastern United States. Open, prairie-like habitats and aquatic wetland habitats were the habitats with the highest biodiversity of Bariditae in the state. Species of Baris, Geraeus, Linogeraeus, and Odontocorynus, were found in the highest numbers and Linogeraeus and Sibariops were found to be the most speciose genera in the state.

  • Local Hazard Mitigation Plan
    City of Waveland Local Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2013 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The purpose of hazard mitigation is to reduce or eliminate long-term risk to people and property from hazards. The City of Waveland developed this Local Hazard Mitigation Plan (LHMP) update to make the City and its residents less vulnerable to future hazard events. This plan was prepared pursuant to the requirements of the Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000 so that Waveland would be eligible for the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s (FEMA) Pre-Disaster Mitigation and Hazard Mitigation Grant programs. The City followed a planning process prescribed by FEMA, which began with the formation of a hazard mitigation planning committee (HMPC) comprised of key City representatives, and other regional stakeholders. The HMPC conducted a risk assessment that identified and profiled hazards that pose a risk to the City, assessed the City’s vulnerability to these hazards, and examined the capabilities in place to mitigate them. The City is vulnerable to several hazards that are identified, profiled, and analyzed in this plan. Floods, hurricanes, and sea level rise are among the hazards that can have a significant impact on the City. Based on the risk assessment, the HMPC identified goals and objectives for reducing the City’s vulnerability to hazards. The goals and objectives of this multi-hazard mitigation plan are: Goal 1 Minimize risk and vulnerability of the community to hazards and reduce damages and protect lives, properties, and public health and safety in the City of Waveland Prevent and reduce flood damage and related losses Minimize impact to both existing and future development Minimize economic and resource impact Goal 2 Provide protection for critical facilities, infrastructure, and services from hazard impacts.
