Based upon the review it was determined that plan updates <br />would be needed to meet the federal and State LMS Plan requirements. The <br />LMS Working Group members and Emergency Response Educators <br />Consultants, Inc. during this review process determined the existing LMS was not <br />satisfactory to provide the foundation of a county-wide mitigation program. <br />Therefore, a complete review of every section of the Seminole County LMS was <br />conducted and the plan was redeveloped using the Plan Interim Criteria Under <br />the Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000 dated June, 2008. <br />During the 2009 Seminole County LMS update the following actions were taken <br />by the LMS Working Group with contract support from Emergency Response <br />Educators and Consultant, Inc: <br />1. ALMS revision kick-off meeting with the LMS Working Group was <br />conducted to review and analyze each section of the plan. <br />2. It was determined that all sections reviewed needed to be revised and <br />updated. The following sections were reviewed: <br />a. General Section: <br />This section includes the plan introduction, purpose, and <br />planning process. This section was revised to reflect the <br />current approach and processes of the Seminole County <br />LMS Working Group. <br />b. Risk Assessment Section: <br />This section includes the hazards analysis and assessing <br />the vulnerabilities of Seminole County. This section was <br />updated to reflect current documented history and outlook of <br />the hazards and vulnerabilities that could impact Seminole <br />County. Each section was revised to reflect updated hazard <br />events and to reflect current vulnerabilities. The Seminole <br />County LMS Working Group determined for continuity <br />purposes the LMS hazards would remain consistent with the <br />Seminole County Comprehensive Emergency Management <br />Plan (CEMP). <br />c. Mitigation Goals Section: <br />This section includes the mitigation goals, the project list, <br />National Flood Insurance Protection (NFIP) compliance data <br />Page 7 <br />.`.7i ~A~II, ~.', ~l !
