Northern  Virginia Hazard Mitigation Public Survey

The Northern Virginia Emergency Managers, NVERS has opened the public comment period on the Northern Virginia 2022 Hazard Mitigation Plan (NOVA HMP) update. The public comment period will be open from September 8, 2022 through October 8, 2022.

The 2022 NOVA HMP is a multi-jurisdictional plan that  details the proposed sustained action taken to reduce or eliminate the long-term risk to human life and property from hazards. A hazard mitigation plan identifies the hazards a community or region faces, assesses their vulnerability to the hazards and identifies specific actions that can be taken to reduce the risk from the hazards.
