<br />Mitigation Strategy Report <br />FEMA.1134-DR-NC <br /> <br />State of North Carolina <br />Division of Emergency Management <br /> <br />Appendix A <br /> <br />Summary of Recommendations <br />{appearing chronologically in the Mitigation Strategy Report} <br /> <br />[continuation: page 8 of 8] <br /> <br />. Coastal communities should determine if there are less vulnerable locations in which to place <br />pipes or whether increasing burial depths would minimize erosion-related impacts. <br /> <br />. In future disasters, FEMA and EM personnel, specifically those responsible for the administration <br />of HMGP and Public Assistance (PA), should implement a coordinated system that directs potential <br />mitigation projects to appropriate funding sources. <br /> <br />. PDA data gather techniques and information sharing should be improved. <br /> <br />. FEMA and EM should adopt a Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) describing the role of mitigation <br />specialists during PDAs. <br /> <br />. The SOP should include language that creates autonomous PDA mitigation teams. <br /> <br />. Information obtained during PDAs should be shared with other teams whenever necessary, <br />particularly as it relates to the identification of individual assistance needs and mitigation opportunities. <br /> <br />. The terms of a programmatic agreement involving EM, the State Historic Preservation Officer, <br />FEMA, and the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation should be included in all actions that <br />affect historic properties. <br /> <br />. Local governments should include a historic preservation element in their hazard mitigation and <br />redevelopment plan. <br /> <br />. When completed, preparedness and mitigation techniques sensitive to the unique nature of historic <br />properties should be discussed and implemented. <br /> <br />Page 37 <br />
