In the wake of the devastating fires in northern California last year, the Scotts Valley Band of Pomo Indians, Big Valley Band of Pomo Indians, Elem Indian Colony, Habematolel Pomo of Upper Lake, and Robinson Rancheria of Pomo Indians have joined together to create the first Multi-Tribal Hazard Mitigation Plan. This plan will identify the hazards that threaten each of these Tribal Communities, assess the risk to each community posed by each hazard, and propose strategies each can implement to protect their communities.
The Federal Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000 requires applicants seeking federal funding for mitigation or recovery from disaster have an established Hazard Mitigation Plan. The successful completion of this plan will allow these Tribal Communities to seek funding for future mitigation efforts.
