Each entity participating in the multi-jurisdictional process worked independently utilizing various locally-developed forms to help assess their vulnerability to various natural hazards. This assessment process was made on a subjective basis considering past events and the best available information. In addition, each entity did their best to list mitigation strategies currently in place as well as identify new mitigation strategies and/or projects that would benefit their specific community. The information contained in this section regarding vulnerability and mitigation strategies are specific to each participating jurisdiction, or special purpose district that participated in the development of this plan. In addition, some communities that currently participate in the National Flood Insurance Program Community Rating System (CRS) elected to include jurisdictional-specific CRS-related information in this section of the plan. Potential Dollar Losses Within Jurisdictions Estimates for potential dollar losses of assets are provided within the profiles of each participating jurisdiction. Since all participating jurisdictions are at risk for a magnitude-9 earthquake, we simply asked for the value of capital assets. The value of public assets at risk for the City of Port Townsend, Jefferson County, and the special districts were obtained by getting the summaries of the insured infrastructure for each jurisdiction. The value of private assets within Jefferson County was obtained by getting the current assessor roles. Additionally, the Earthquake hazard write-up in Section II contains an Hazus analysis that predicts loss based on historical probabilities for earthquakes in the region. Since that last magnitude 9+ earthquake occurred in 1700, prior to significant infrastructure being in the area, we place more credence on merely cataloging the value of current assets. We are now within the cyclic period when it is possible for a catastrophic seismic event to recur in Jefferson County. It is recognized that this understates the potential losses because it only focuses on publicly documented assets, and does not include such things as state highways. Jefferson County – City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Vs. 6 412 September 2016 NATURAL HAZARD RATING PROCESS Using a scoring matrix available in the 20/20 Mitigation Software provided to Jefferson County by the Washington State Military Department, Emergency Management Division, each jurisdiction participating in the development of the Jefferson County Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan calculated a risk analysis for the following natural hazards: Avalanche Public Health Emergency Damaging Winds Tornado Drought Tsunami / Seiche Earthquake Volcano Event Flood Wildfire – Urban Interface Heat Wave Winter Storm (Snow) To begin the risk analysis process, each jurisdiction completed the 20/20 scoring matrix using a subjective evaluation based on historical events by assigning numerical values for each natural hazard based upon the following risk categories: • The area(s) impacted by the hazard (ranked 0-4) • Probability of persons injured or killed (ranked 0-3) • Probability of property damaged or destroyed (ranked 0-3) • Probability of environmental damage (ranked 0-3) • Probability of Economic disruption (ranked 0-3) In addition, a Probability or Frequency of Occurrence value was assigned to each natural hazard (ranked 1 - 5) based upon the known frequency of incidents resulting from each natural hazard. For each natural hazard, the numerical values for each risk category were totaled (with a maximum possible score of 16) and this number was then multiplied by the Probability or “Frequency of Occurrence” value to determine the risk rating for each natural hazard. Using this formula, the maximum numerical risk value that could be assigned to each hazard is 80. Based on this scoring matrix, the maximum numerical risk value that could be assigned to calculate the combined risk rating for all natural hazards considered is 720. The completed 20/20 scoring matrix and risk rating for each participating jurisdiction can be found in their individual portion of SECTION IV of this plan. The NATURAL HAZARD RATING TABLE shown on the following page was compiled based upon the risk analysis calculated by each participating jurisdiction. In addition, the top 3 identified hazards of each jurisdiction were carried over to its Special District profile. The NATURAL HAZARD RATING TABLE provides a useful tool to compare the extent to which each natural hazard affects each community involved in the development of the Plan. It also captures the change in attitude (priorities) among participating jurisdictions towards each hazard.

In addition, mitigation strategies that are currently in place relating to these natural hazards as well as newly proposed mitigation strategies have been included in this section of the plan. To complete the vulnerability assessment process, various city staff utilized a series of locally developed forms as well as forms available in the 20/20 Mitigation Software that were provided to Jefferson County by the Washington State Military Department, Emergency Management Division. As part of the vulnerability assessment process, City of Port Townsend government started an inventory of all critical facilities and is considering these critical facilities in our planning and mitigation strategy development process. Basic information on these facilities is available from public sources, and therefore, it is included in this report. Sensitive information about critical facilities has not been published. Representatives from City of Port Townsend government worked closely with other jurisdictions, agencies, and the Jefferson County Natural Hazards Planning Committee to develop a comprehensive, coordinated mitigation plan intended to reduce the vulnerability to natural hazards within the City of Port Townsend. The information contained in this document presents the results of this effort to identify the specific natural hazards threatening the City of Port Townsend, to characterize the vulnerability of the City of Port Townsend regarding these hazards, and to identify current as well as proposed mitigation strategies, projects and/or programs to address those vulnerabilities. The analyses conducted by Port Townsend staff were based on the best currently available information and data regarding the characteristics of the neighborhoods identified, the natural hazards that threaten the people, property, and environment of these neighborhoods as well as the impacts these neighborhoods have suffered in past disasters. This information includes, when available, United States Census data, local tax records, local and national geographic information system data, Flood Insurance Rate Maps, hazard specific analyses, and other environmental and demographic facts. However, very often authoritative or current information simply was not available for the planning effort. In these cases, the experience, knowledge and judgment of local officials representing the City of Port Townsend, the judgment of knowledgeable officials and simplified analyses is considered acceptable at this stage to allow the participating organizations to complete the tasks needed to develop this multi-jurisdictional natural hazards mitigation plan. As the planning continues in future years, or at the time when a proposed mitigation initiative is intended to be funded and/or implemented, the participating organizations/jurisdictions recognize that additional information and analyses may be required. The City of Port Townsend government is committed to the implementation of the mitigation related projects/programs described in this section of the plan when and if resources become available. City of Port Townsend government is also committed to continuing the mitigation planning process that has resulted in the development of this document, and to the ongoing cooperation with other agencies, organizations, and jurisdictions to make the City more resistant to the damages and hardships that could otherwise be the result of future natural disasters.

Available at: http://bsa.nfipstat.fema.gov/reports/w2rhudrp.htm The City of Port Townsend is a participant in good standing in the NFIP program. NFIP participation has been institutionalized as part of the city’s risk management efforts, thus assuring that NFIP requirements are routinely reviewed and that changes to local ordinances, the Shoreline Master Plan, etc. are made consistent with those requirements. Since the city’s Comprehensive Use Plan, its Shoreline Master Plan, and others have specific review and update cycles, NFIP-related changes normally occur during a planned review and update unless specific circumstances such as an externally mandated implementation date dictates otherwise. No additional priority has been attached to NFIP participation per se because the process to stay current has been institutionalized. Jefferson County – City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Vs. 6 418 September 2016 The city pays its NFIP insurance premiums as part of the Association of Washington Cities (AWC) risk pool and thus has the additional benefit of having the AWC also monitoring requirements and notifying the city when changes are required. Planning Methodologies To make jurisdiction-wide analysis of the population at risk for each hazard type feasible and practical for mitigation planning purposes, a simplified approach has been used. The estimate of the population at risk for specific hazards is accomplished in the following manner: The population in a specific neighborhood is estimated by local planners, based on readily available data or their best judgment in the absence of suitable data. The population could be residents, workers, visitors, institutionalized individuals, mixed population types, etc., depending on the characteristics of the neighborhood. The percentage of the area of the specific neighborhood threatened by the identified hazard is then estimated by local planners, again based on readily available data or their best judgment. The percent of the neighborhood at risk is then used as a multiplier to determine the estimated number of people at risk from that hazard. The methodology is simplistic but conservative, in that it assumes occupied structures are uniformly distributed throughout the neighborhood in relation to the area of risk, that the population is present in the neighborhood on a 24 hour, 7-day basis, and that all individuals are equally vulnerable to the impacts of the hazard event. The derived estimates for the number of people at risk may therefore be higher than actually is the case, but the estimates are considered satisfactory to support the local mitigation planning process. To make jurisdiction-wide analysis of the dollar value of properties at risk for each hazard type feasible and practical for mitigation planning purposes, a simplified approach has been used to provide input to the cost benefit analysis. The estimate of the dollar value of properties at risk for specific hazards is accomplished in the following manner: The number of structures in a specific neighborhood and the average dollar value for those structures is estimated by local planners, based on readily available data or their best judgment in the absence of suitable data. The percentage of the specific neighborhood threatened by the identified hazard is then estimated by local planners, again based on readily available data or their best judgment. The percent of the neighborhood at risk is then used as a multiplier to determine the estimated number of structures at risk from that hazard. This number is then multiplied by the estimated average cost of the structures to derive an estimated total value of the property at risk of damage in that neighborhood from the identified hazard. The methodology is simplistic but conservative, in that it assumes structures are uniformly distributed throughout the neighborhood in relation to the area of risk; that the hazard threatens the entire value of each structure; and that structures are equally vulnerable to the impacts of the hazard. The derived estimates for the dollar value of property at risk may therefore be higher than would actually be the case, but the estimates are considered satisfactory to support the local mitigation planning process. To make analysis of the dollar value of critical assets for each hazard type, insurance records were obtained for all public buildings. Tax roles were used for the valuation of districts and of specific buildings or locations, as appropriate.

The purpose of this chapter is to fulfill the requirements of the Growth Management Act by accommodating essential public facilities of statewide or regional significance, including but not limited to airports, state education facilities, state or regional transportation facilities; prisons, jails and other correctional facilities; secure community transition facilities; and solid waste facilities. (Ord. 2879 § 6.4, 2005). PTMC Chapter 19.05 Critical Areas. 19.05.010 Purpose. The Washington Growth Management Act (GMA) requires that critical areas within the city are to be protected by establishing protection standards for minimizing the impact of development of properties within critical areas. The goal of this chapter is to protect and improve the city of Port Townsend’s critical areas for the present and future generations. Many elements of Port Townsend’s natural environment are fragile resources that are sensitive to the impacts of urban development, or may pose hazards to the community if developed. These include the following areas and ecosystems: wetlands; critical aquifer recharge areas; fish and wildlife habitat conservation areas; frequently flooded areas; and geologically hazardous areas. These are termed “critical areas,” which also include their protective buffers, and are of special concern to the city and the citizens of the state. This document addresses only the city’s critical areas – it has been determined that the city will not designate any natural resource lands as defined by the Growth Management Act. It is the intent of this chapter to protect the public health, safety, and welfare by: Jefferson County – City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Vs. 6 424 September 2016 CODES AND COMPREHENSIVE PLANS for NATURAL HAZARD REDUCTION DOCUMENT PURPOSE REVIEW SCHEDULE A.

International Building Code International Building Code - The purpose of this code is to provide minimum standards to safeguard life or limb, health, property and public welfare by regulating and controlling the design, construction, quality of materials, use and occupancy, location and maintenance of all buildings and structures within this jurisdiction. International Fire Code International Fire Code - this code prescribes regulations consistent with nationally recognized good practice for the safeguarding to a reasonable degree of life and property from the hazards of fire, explosion, and dangerous conditions arising from the storage, handling and use of hazardous materials and devices, and from conditions hazardous to life or property in the use or occupancy of buildings or premises and provisions to assist emergency response personnel. Jefferson County – City of Port Townsend Hazard Mitigation Plan (Hazmit Plan) This Plan documents the County, City, and participating Special Districts strategic planning to reduce the effects of natural disasters in Jefferson County. This Hazmit Plan is unique in that: (1) It is an All-Hazard Plan that not only deals with natural disasters, but those man-made disasters that can significantly impact one or more of the participants of the Plan, e.g the presence here of the second largest Navy Munitions Depot on the west coast adds the risk of an Ordnance Mishap that other locales do not have. (2) In 2016, where appropriate, commentary on climate change having an effect on a type of natural disaster has been added. This was requested by FEMA, but is voluntary and consistent with the attitudes of local government officials. FEMA requires a major update every 5 years. The current Plan (2009) expired in June, 2015. The 2016 Update is underway.

City government format is a Council - Manager form of government. City staff evaluates actions based on community needs as expressed in the growth management act and the various comprehensive plans adopted by council. Staff prepares recommendations for specific actions to the council for consideration. Council weighs the input from staff and citizens before making any decision. Before an action may proceed there must be a demonstrated need and funding must be secured. When funding is available and approval of council is given, the project is included in the annual budget. Need for an action to proceed may be determined in a variety of ways including but not limited to: action items identified in adopted plans, benefit cost analysis, necessary service, emergency, directive from state or federal agency, safety or other benefit to the community. For planning purposes projects are evaluated and included in the annual update of the 6-year capital facilities plan. Many projects in the capital facilities plan are dependent of outside funding. Possible sources of funding are the general fund, capital improvement funds, utility reserves, local improvement district, grant funding from a variety of sources including but not limited to private agencies, economic development organizations, state agencies, federal agencies and philanthropic sources. Other sources of funding may, from time to time, become available for specified actions that may or may not be included in the community planning process. Economic Analysis of Mitigation Projects The Federal Emergency Management Agency’s approaches to identify costs and benefits associated with natural hazard mitigation strategies or projects fall into two general categories: benefit/cost analysis (BCA) and cost-effectiveness analysis. Where appropriate, proposed activities will be evaluated using the BCA tools and Hazus modeling software, along with empirical data to assess whether or not the mitigation strategy is justified. Repetitive Loss Properties The City of Port Townsend has one repetitive loss property. It is a residence built within 100’ of the Puget Sound and the building is valued at $303,150 based on current assessments. Since there is only one repetitive loss property at risk, identifying its location more specifically would violate federal disclosure regulations.

Completed: 2012 Jefferson County – City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Vs. 6 447 September 2016 City of Port Townsend Water System Water District Profile The City of Port Townsend is supplied by a water system known as the Olympic Gravity Water Supply System that delivers the water required by Port Townsend and the Port Townsend Paper Company. The Paper Company paid for the construction of the system, and operates the system under an agreement with the City. The City owns the system and is responsible for paying the costs when it becomes necessary to replace the system. The system has a delivery capacity of 20 million gallons per day, most of which is used by the Paper Company. Due to both drought and economic conditions, the Port Townsend Paper Company has been working to reduce its demand on water resources and has cut its daily consumption to less than 10 million gallons. In the present agreement, the City is responsible for all capital improvements, unless a facility item is irreparably damaged due to an “Act of God”, such as earthquake, landslide, or flooding event. Under this circumstance, the City and Company share in the replacement of the structure. The system consists of two water surface diversion structures, Lords Lake, City Lake and 30 miles of pipeline. Replacement costs have been estimated at $54,000,000 for total replacement of the pipeline, $300,000 for the dam at the Big Quilcene River Diversion, and $500,000 for hydraulic structures and gates at the diversion dams.

(Completed - 2006.) (Rev. 2009) Jefferson County – City of Port Townsend All Hazard Mitigation Plan (Rev. 2016) Vs. 6 464 September 2016 NEW MITIGATION ACTIVITY: PORT TOWNSEND RESILIENCY CENTER ACTIVITY ID: LT-MH-7 Since 2003, when Port Townsend replaced its fire station with one that was designed to whether earthquakes better, the City has systematically been hardening and seismically retrofitting critical public infrastructure to improve the survivability of the public within those or using those structures. This includes building the fire station, seismically retrofitting two city halls, the historic Carnegie library, the police station, downtown tunnel lids, and the water distribution facility that is a critical node in the City’s water system. While commendable, it has become clear that after a four to 5-minute magnitude 9+ earthquake, such as can happen at any time now if the Cascadia Subduction Zone ruptures along the Washington coast, Port Townsend and Jefferson County will become a refugee zone for months. It is easy to see that highways and bridges will be compromised, the power grid can cease to function for months, and public and private infrastructure will be devastated. Just-in- time supply lines will be destroyed and the entire Olympic Peninsula could be thrown back to the equivalent of having to survive in the late 1800’s. Depending on where such an event occurred, the kind of help promised in exercises may not be available to send. Mitigating the effects of such a disaster goes beyond improving infrastructure per se. Survival is not just making it through the 5-minutes of terror in a major earthquake, it is making it through the 5-months following when mere survival is job number one for everyone. The Plan Goals include implementing activities that assist in protecting lives by making … property more resistant to losses form natural hazards, and providing citizens from all areas of Jefferson County with the information and tools they need to help them…in the hours and days immediately following an emergency or disaster event. There are also Plan Goals that encourage the development of public – private partnerships to implement local and regional mitigation activities. In the spirit of the above goals, the City of Port Townsend, the Port Townsend School District, the Jefferson County Public Hospital District No.2 (Jefferson HealthCare) and the YMCA have assembled a partnership that are willing to contribute assets to create a Port Townsend Resiliency Center to assist the community with pre and post long term recovery. This concept takes the proposed YMCA facility to be built on School District property and re-scopes the design to “Essential Facility” code and prioritizes the design to meet “key” activities for the partnership to promote resiliency through Wellness, Access, Education, Engagement and Self Sufficiency.
