Recent and Current Projects and Initiatives in Hazard Risk Management for North Carolina Water Resources

Speakers: Hope Morgan GISP, GIS Manager, Office of Geospatial & Technology Management, NC Department of Emergency Management and Jack W. Moyer, National Water Security and Preparedness Lead, URS Corporation

Description: In recent years, there has been increasing recognition of the vulnerability of water systems and water resources to the impacts of disasters of various forms and the interdependency of the water sector with other sectors. Hope Morgan of the NC Division of Emergency Management and Jack Moyer of URS Corporation have been involved in a number of the recent initiatives and projects to improve water sector and multi-sector resiliency, including the NC Division of Emergency Management (DEM) Floodplain Mapping, the DEM Integrated Hazard Risk Management project, the NC Division of Water Resources Drought Tabletop Exercise and Toolbox, the current DHS Regional Resiliency Assessment Project in NC and the NC Public Water Supply Section Toolbox for Water Systems Tabletop Exercises, which they will review in this presentation.
