DIRECTOR’S MESSAGE Disasters happen.

2017 showed Utah again what can happen when Mother Nature’s forces combine against our relatively peaceful lives.

In February, Box Elder and Cache counties were the focus of flooding’s menace. Sheet flooding caused water to pour into basements and wash out roads. In these moments of distress, we owe our gratitude to first responders, local emergency managers, neighbors and volunteers for their tireless efforts.

In April, the President declared a major disaster for the affected counties and we’ll spend the next few years working with county officials and assisting them in the road to recovery.

The flooding was devastating to the affected homeowners with basements full of water destroyed furnaces and eventual piles of irreplaceable heirlooms and mementos. We have an opportunity now to encourage Utahns to consider how a specific insurance policy for flooding could fit into their budgets.

Flood damage recovery is not included in a traditional homeowners policy. Flood insurance could help with big-ticket items, such as furnaces and water heaters.

In 2017, we also watched from afar as three powerful hurricanes -- Harvey, Irma and Maria -- struck the United States. Utah sent responders to all three hurricanes to assist with disaster recovery and we stand ready to help again in the future.

California’s wildfires in October and December also gave Utah firefighters a chance to serve through the Emergency Management Assistance Compact (EMAC). Fire agencies selflessly responded to the call for help with 22 departments sending personnel in October and 29 in December.

Is Utah ready to shoulder a burden like the devastation from a major disaster earthquake? We are taking steps. We are making progress. We see our time now as a time to prepare.

We look forward to future conversations with partners in the Legislative and Executive branches on this topic and encourage these same conversations at the local level. Funding is certainly part of the equation, but we also expect to discover ways to use Utah talents and creativity to solve our future disaster problems.

Thank you for all that you do, and best wishes in 2018.

UTAH DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC SAFETY Utah is one of 35 EMAP accredited states.

EMAP provides credible standards on which a program can build a strong foundation.

Utah became accredited in 2007 and gained re-accreditation in 2012 and 2017.

DIVISION OF EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT Our Vision

To achieve a self-sustaining culture of emergency preparedness for all individuals and communities in Utah.

Our Mission

To unite the emergency management community and to coordinate efforts necessary to mitigate, prepare for, respond to and recover from emergencies, disasters and catastrophic events.

DEM FINANCIAL

Total Federal Dollars Spent

$427,047.48 $4,083,059.96 $7,251,542.82

How do federal dollars benefit Utah? ~ Ensures Utah taxpayer dollars come back to the state and are spent on Utah needs ~ Augments first responder capabilities at the local level through planning, training, and equipment ~ Increases Utah’s preparedness at the government, community, individual/family, and business level

$3,059,382.03

$1,773,127.29

Emergency Management Performance Grant (EMPG) The purpose of EMPG is to provide Federal funds to states to assist state, local, territorial, and tribal governments in preparing for all hazards. Through the EMPG program we provide approximately $1.7 million in funding to support the Emergency Management programs of 29 Counties, 28 Cities, and 4 Institutions of Higher Education. Examples of functions EMPG helps support include, but are not limited to, conducting risk assessments, assessing capabilities, identifying preparedness needs, and updating emergency plans; building or augmenting core capabilities; designing and conducting exercises that engage the whole community of stakeholders to validate core capabilities; conducting emergency management training; and providing funding support for emergency management personnel.

Mitigation In 2017, Utah was awarded $3,928,346 in FEMA mitigation funding. This funding will go towards four mitigation planning updates and four mitigation projects. Three mitigation plans were updated and approved by FEMA. Four Hazard Mitigation Grant Program (HMGP) grants were closed, DR-1955, DR-4011, DR-4053, and DR-4088.

Recovery The Recovery personnel spent a significant amount 2017 working on the Winter Flooding Disaster (DR-4311) that affected Box Elder and Cache Counties. Significant progress in closing older disasters was made in 2017.

Cooperating Technical Partners Funds The Cooperating Technical Partner (CTP) program provides federal assistance through a cooperative agreement between FEMA and an eligible Cooperating Technical Partners (CTP) to perform various projects and activities that stimulate and support the ability of NFIP State Coordinating Agencies. This allows NFIP participating communities to continue their ongoing regulatory NFIP responsibilities as well as support the ability of States, communities and the public and private sector to mitigate flood risk.

CTPs assist in the development and maintenance of flood risk data and Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs) and other risk related products, and further advance the goals and objectives of Risk MAP and the NFIP program.

Funding from the Legislature benefits Utah’s preparedness, response, and recovery efforts by: ~ $1.3 Million to fund salaries, daily operations, and matching obligations of federal dollars

$99,963.66

$730,645.20

Capabilities and resources enhanced this year through preparedness grants: ~ Sustainment of the Utah Bomb Squad Task Force, which allows seven FBI-approved teams to plan, train, and maintain uniformity across the state ~ Sustainment of the State Urban Search and Rescue committee to coordinate uniform training, response, and recovery within the state

Public Information

79 Interviews 23 Outlets 9 Staff members quoted

Mitigation & Recovery Section Risk MAP

Risk MAP (Mapping, Assessment, and Planning) develops flood hazard data and maps for communities that have never had identified risks as well as building on effective flood hazard data and flood insurance rate maps. In Utah, only 7.8% of flood risk is mapped on a Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM).

Project stats - Risk MAP funded 1,606.9 square miles of LiDAR (topography data) acquisition in Cache and Washington Counties - Risk MAP was awarded $2,129,441.00 in CTP project grant in 2017. Also assisted in the award of FEMA HQ funded LiDAR acquisition for 4341.9 square miles of LiDAR for Wasatch, Duchesne, and Uintah Counties totaling approximately $1.1 million - Alluvial Fan Inventory completed for Wasatch Range from Idaho Border to Nephi; West Oquirrh’s Point of the Mountain to southeast of Rush Valley - Morgan County new FIRMs became effective December 2017

NFIP

Utah Floodplain Program has continued to work hard to train our communities, Floodplain Administrators’ and Emergency Managers about the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). We have used the Community Assisted Visits (CAV’s), which are floodplain regulatory audits, Community Assisted Contacts (CAC’s), which vary in nature to help communities regulate there floodplain ordinance, and General Technical Assistance (GTA’s), which give advice on floodplain and NFIP matters to individuals to help advise on NFIP matters.
