Presentation Abstract
Every community is susceptible to hazards and natural disasters, so it is very important that communities take the proper precautions to reduce the effects of disasters. Hazard Mitigation Plans are an important first step for sustainable communities. Through my work at the Waccamaw Regional Council of Governments, I have been able to examine the best practices and resources to develop a hazard mitigation plan for Williamsburg County that focuses on the sustainable development of the community.
