Hazard Mitigation Survey Summary
As part of the Hall County Hazard Mitigation Plan update process, a survey was distributed to officials of Hall
County, the Cities of Grand Island and Wood River, and the Villages of Alda, Doniphan and Cairo. The survey
requested information from local officials regarding the threats and associated severity impacting their
jurisdiction. This survey also solicited mitigation project ideas that can alleviate this risk.
Asked to rank local hazards on a scale of 1-5
by severity, survey results showed that Hall
County respondents reported severe weather
in both winter and summer, including
tornadoes and flooding, as their most
common and highest risk threats. These
concerns are borne out by the fact that the
major disaster declarations in past decades
have all been weather related, including
flooding in 2008 and 2005, ice storms in
2006/2007 and of course the tornadoes of
1980 in Grand Island.
Project Suggestions
Survey respondents were also asked to provide mitigation project ideas for their jurisdiction. Proposed projects
were categorized into five basic types:
1.Saferooms & storm shelters
2.Flood Mitigation & Drainage
3.Public Education
4.Infrastructure Protection
5.Hazmat & Chemical Spill Prevention (fixed facilities & transportation)
Of the nearly 30 projects and project ideas, the most common were saferooms (11), critical infrastructure
protection (7) and hazmat spill mitigation/prevention (6).
