But my heart’s been broken by seeing the pain I knew could have been prevented.” --James Lee Witt Introduction The Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000 (DMA2K) has been the impetus for the development of this mitigation plan. Passed in October of 2000 as Public Law 106-390 to reduce the growing demand for federal disaster assistance, it provides a blueprint for state and local jurisdictions to implement natural hazard mitigation planning. The local mitigation plan is the representation of the jurisdiction's commitment to reduce risks from natural hazards, serving as a guide for decision makers as they commit resources to reducing the effects of natural hazards. CFR TITLE 44, Chapter I, Part 201, Sec.201.6 FEMA defines hazard mitigation as those actions taken to reduce or eliminate the long-term risk to people, property, the social infrastructure, or the environment from hazards and their effects. Hazard mitigation planning, then, is the process of determining the best means of reducing or eliminating the property damage and the loss of life. The Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000 (DMA 2000) amended the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act by, among other things, adding a new section, 322 – Mitigation Planning. Section 322 places new emphasis on mitigation planning. It requires local governments to develop and submit mitigation plans as a condition of receiving Hazard Mitigation Grant Program and Pre-Disaster Mitigation Program funds. 44 CFR Part 201 outlines the key responsibilities of local governments in carrying out section 322. The regulatory directive included in the Federal Statement of Purpose, under 44 CFR 201.1 subpart states: “The purpose of mitigation planning is for State, local, and Indian tribal governments to identify the natural hazards that impact them, to identify actions and activities to reduce losses from those hazards, and to establish a coordinated process to implement the plan, taking advantage of a wide range of resources.” ---PAGE BREAK--- Page ES-2 REGION 5 ALL HAZARD MITIGATION PLAN – 2015-2020 EDITION CITY OF PUYALLUP ADDENDUM Historically the City of Puyallup has achieved some success in mitigating the damage from future disasters. The movement of many City facilities over the past few years from the downtown area, built on soils susceptible to earthquake damage and threatened by potential lahars from Mt. Rainier, to the South Hill area is a major step in the right direction. The inclusion of seismic, volcanic and landslide problems in the City’s Comprehensive Plan ten years ago shows a determination to include them in the general planning for the City. The City has implemented innovative approaches to disaster mitigation, ranging from the Critical Areas Regulations to the formation of citizens trained to respond locally to problems in their community through the formation of Neighborhood Emergency Teams. Yet there remains much to be done. The Puyallup All Hazard Mitigation Plan (referred to as “the City Plan” or “the Plan”) embodies the City’s commitment to its citizens’ safety and presents a progressive vision for preventing the disasters that threaten this region. The City of Puyallup has recognized that there are many partners and stakeholders that have a role to play in the City’s mitigation efforts. Recent large-scale national disasters and state-wide exercises have changed how emergency managers and jurisdictions address the “whole community”. The City of Puyallup Emergency Management Department has made considerable efforts to develop partnerships with non-governmental agencies, school, businesses and community groups throughout the City. Strengthening preparedness efforts throughout the community will enable the City of Puyallup to move to recovery efforts after a disaster in a smoother and quicker fashion. Several of the new mitigation strategies in this Plan update reflect the “whole community” approach. For example, strengthening current City programs like the City of Puyallup Neighborhood Block Watch program/Crime Prevention Program with an Emergency Preparedness component. This is a low-cost measure that builds in existing relationships with community members and City residents that are engaged and eager to participate more with the City. During the past three decades, the greater Pierce County area has experienced 18 federally declared disasters and numerous other emergencies caused by natural hazards. Almost everyone has directly affected the City of Puyallup. Hazard mitigation is an essential part of breaking this disaster cycle. To that end the City has in the past passed the Critical Areas ordinance. Currently the City is in the process of updating its Comprehensive Plan and including a more complete coverage of the natural hazards within that plan. This will reduce the city’s vulnerability to natural hazards and create a more disaster-resistant community. Puyallup’s update of the All Hazard Mitigation Plan was done by Emergency Management Response Team, a committee composed of staff members from the City’s departments that would have a major role in emergency or disaster response and recovery. The committee began with the mission statement from the City’s Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan: “The mission of the City of Puyallup Emergency Management Program is to protect lives and property through preparedness and mitigation activities, effective response to emergencies and disasters associated with natural, environmental and human-caused hazards, and coordination and participation in the recovery effort as a result of such events.” ---PAGE BREAK--- Page ES-3 REGION 5 ALL HAZARD MITIGATION PLAN – 2015-2020 EDITION CITY OF PUYALLUP ADDENDUM Utilizing this mission statement and combining it with other material the team reaffirmed the goals for the plan. Puyallup Plan Goals The Plan Goals are the basis for the development and implementation of mitigation measures and explain what the City seeks to achieve through the year 2020 and in some cases beyond. The goals listed in the plan are compatible with other goals put forth by the City. They are based on findings of the risk assessments, represent a long-term vision for hazard reduction or enhancement of mitigation capabilities, and fall within federally identified mitigation categories. The Plan Goals describe the overall direction that Puyallup and its citizens can take to work toward mitigating risk from natural, technological and man-made hazards. These Goals are stepping-stones between the broad direction of the Plan purpose and the specific recommendations outlined in the subsequent mitigation measures. The Goals are to: • Save lives and reduce public exposure to risk; • Reduce or prevent damage to public and private property; • Reduce the vulnerability of the City's economy to disaster; • Reduce adverse environmental or natural resource impacts; • Improve community understanding of the particular hazards that threaten the City, and the mitigation measures available to reduce vulnerability to those hazards; and • Provide continuous review of mitigation plans. Reader’s Guide to This Plan In order to ensure compliance with DMA 2000in particular 44 CFR 201.6and to assist the City of Puyallup, the Washington State plan reviewers, and FEMA Region X reviewers, the relevant federal requirements are placed on each section’s cover page. The reader can expect to find each stated requirement within the section that follows it. This provides the reader a quick reference of the method of organization and compliance of the City’s Plan to the federal requirements. It will also facilitate the public’s or general reader’s understanding of federal guidelines and how the City seeks to function in accordance with these guidelines. The Plan is comprised of seven major sections: a Process Section; a Profile Section; a Capability Assessment Section; a Risk Assessment Section; a Mitigation Strategy Section; a Critical Facilities Section, and; a Plan Maintenance Section and Appendices. ---PAGE BREAK--- Page ES-4 REGION 5 ALL HAZARD MITIGATION PLAN – 2015-2020 EDITION CITY OF PUYALLUP ADDENDUM The Process Section summarizes the development process for the City’s Plan. It covers such topics as the process of the plan preparation, participation, meetings, information sources, and public involvement documentation. The Plan is developed around several major components as identified in 44 CFR 201.6. These components include an ongoing Public Involvement Process, a Jurisdiction Profile, a Capability Identification, Vulnerability and Risk Assessment, a Mitigation and Implementation Strategy, and finally a section on Plan Maintenance Procedures. The Process Section describes how the development of these major components came about. The Profile describes the City and is broken up into six categories which include: Geography, Geology, Climate, History, Demographic, and the Economy. The Capability Identification summarizes the City’s capabilities relative to all hazard mitigation. This includes the Legal and Regulatory Capabilities, Political, Fiscal, and Administrative Capabilities, and Technical Capabilities available to the City with regards to implementing mitigation measures. This does not include just those available within City government. Rather it includes those available from outside sources both of funding and technical assistance. The Risk Assessment portrays Puyallup's risks and vulnerabilities, and is organized by geological, meteorological and technological hazard types to address the following hazards: earthquake, volcanic, windstorms, severe storms, flood, and landslide. Each hazard is defined through an identification description, a profile, and a vulnerability description. Initially each hazard identified in the City’s Hazard Identification and Vulnerability Analysis was evaluated. A comparison of the hazards was completed and scored. The final result included six hazards that were considered enough of a hazard to be included in the mitigation plan. They include in order of risk: Earthquake - The City is most vulnerable to earthquakes, sustaining damage from historic earthquakes in 1949 1965 and 2001(6.8). All three of these were deep earthquakes which sustain less damage than similar sized earthquakes located closer to the surface. Puyallup is at risk from these shallower earthquakes as well as large Cascadia subduction zone earthquakes located off the Washington Coast which may be as large as Currently the US Geological Survey is mapping portions of the Tacoma Fault which is known to run below western Pierce County possibly as far as Puyallup. Volcanic - Mt. Rainier, dominating Pierce County’s southeastern corner, is one of five active volcanoes in Washington State. Over the past 5000+ years the volcano has inundated the area currently occupied by Puyallup's downtown with lahars, multiple times. Due to the population within the lahar inundation zone the mountain is regarded as one of the most hazardous in the world. Windstorm - Windstorms tied with volcanic, with the second highest rating among the hazards affecting Puyallup. Damage has occurred not just from the major storms like the Columbus Day storm of 1962 that claimed 48 lives and damaged over 50,000 buildings in the Pacific Northwest, or from the Inaugural Day Storm in 1993, but also from the wind that is received nearly every year in Puyallup. ---PAGE BREAK--- Page ES-5 REGION 5 ALL HAZARD MITIGATION PLAN – 2015-2020 EDITION CITY OF PUYALLUP ADDENDUM Severe Storm - The City’s severe storms hazard includes snow and ice or freezing rain storms. Population growth and development on higher land on South Hill in particular increases the vulnerability to this hazard. Flooding - Flooding is the cause of most of the disaster declarations in Puyallup, with the 1996-97 events causing the most damage. While flooding is not the hazard most threatening to the City it has caused problems over the years. Beginning with the levee construction in 1906 the threat of flooding along the Puyallup River was reduced. However, there is still a threat from flooding along Clarks Creek as well as storm drainage problems from blocked culverts in the low areas to the east of downtown. The Army Corps of Engineer has de-certified the levees due to channel in fill and National Weather Service has lowered the flood level from 31.6 feet to 26.2 feet at the Puyallup gauge. Landslides – The potential for landslides has been recognized in Puyallup for years. Most of the problem occurs along the hill which separates South Hill from Downtown Puyallup. While the City’s vulnerability to landslides is not great, it is increasing over time. The lack of building sites easy to develop gradually moves people into those areas that are more marginal, meaning along the steeper slopes. Associated with this is the fact that landslides are also associated with earthquakes. A large earthquake in the Puget Sound basin could generate landslides, damaging property and a portion of the City’s infrastructure. Because of these vulnerabilities, Puyallup is moving into the future with the intention of reducing the impacts of disasters through mitigation. Within this plan the City employs a multi- faceted approach towards breaking the disaster cycle, including development and land use regulations, public education campaigns, structural projects, and warning systems. This Plan represents the next step as Puyallup seeks increased coordination and effectiveness of its mitigation activities. The Mitigation Strategy is based first upon Puyallup’s mitigation goals and then builds on the risk assessment and capability identification. The measures are then broken down by the hazard they attempt to address and then prioritized within each hazard category with the multi-hazard mitigation measures given their own category. The next step in the prioritization process is to break it down by what group or organization might be the impetus for enacting the program. Here there are three main groups. The first of these is the Hazard Mitigation Forum (HMF). The HMF attempts to address mitigation measures that pass across jurisdictional lines. Implemented by Pierce County the HMF is an attempt to develop projects that are too wide ranging or large to be implemented by one jurisdiction. The second includes those measures to be directly supported or initiated by the Emergency Management Action Team (EMAT). They include planning, modifying facilities, mapping and any other mitigation project implemented within the City directly affecting the City’s facilities, infrastructure, or protects the citizens and public and private property. ---PAGE BREAK--- Page ES-6 REGION 5 ALL HAZARD MITIGATION PLAN – 2015-2020 EDITION CITY OF PUYALLUP ADDENDUM The third includes all public education programs relating back to safety and preparedness of both the general population and City staff. Once these categories are determined, the next step in the prioritization process is to look at each measure and determine its ranking by need, ease of implementation, funding determinations, cost-effectiveness, goals addressed, and long-term sustainability within the City. The Puyallup Mitigation Strategy Matrix (Table 1) lists each measure by hazard, and states the implementation mechanism, agency (ies) and/or department(s) responsible, implementation timeline, and the mitigation goals addressed. ---PAGE BREAK--- Page ES-- 7 - REGION 5 ALL HAZARD MITIGATION PLAN – 2015-2020 EDITION CITY OF PUYALLUP ADDENDUM Table 1 Puyallup Mitigation Strategy Matrix Implementation Mechanism Mitigation Measure (Hazard(s)) Lead Jurisdiction(s) / Department(s) Timeline (years) Plan Goals Life and Property Operations C ti it Partnerships Natural Resources Preparedness Sustainable Economy Startup 1.

The Plan Maintenance Procedures describes: the method and schedule of monitoring, evaluating, and updating the Puyallup Plan within a five-year cycle; how Puyallup intends to incorporate the outlined mitigation strategies into existing Puyallup mechanisms, and; a process to integrate ongoing public participation throughout the plan maintenance. Conclusion The charge of this plan, of this City, is to protect its citizens from those aspects that, unseen, threaten its very continuity. As the City grows, so too does its vulnerability. New growth and changing patterns of use modify its vulnerability, and new scientific research clarifies the risks. Puyallup’s Mitigation Plan is an attempt to move forward, paying closer attention to the hazards that, in the future, could adversely affect the City. The continued growth of population, expansion of the City through annexation, and the increasing knowledge of natural hazards and their effect on the City all point to the need for a plan to mitigate those hazards. Yet in conjunction with this is the need to maintain sustainable development, economic prosperity, environmental protection, and social well-being. Over the next five years as the City works to carry out this plan, it will find that some of the measures may be too costly. They may not be able to be financed. They may involve political capital that cannot be adequately compensated for, or further analysis may show some of them will take too much time and energy to be cost effective. These are issues that will be sorted out as the City works to implement the plan. For answers to these problems future mitigation plans will be updated and developed. This updated mitigation plan continues to lay the groundwork for those to follow. ---PAGE BREAK--- Page ES - 10 - REGION 5 ALL HAZARD MITIGATION PLAN – 2015-2020 EDITION CITY OF PUYALLUP ADDENDUM (This page left blank intentionally) ---PAGE BREAK--- PAGE 1-1 REGION 5 ALL HAZARD MITIGATION PLAN – 2015-2020 EDITION CITY OF PUYALLUP ADDENDUM Section 1 Plan Process Requirements Planning Process---Requirement §201.6(b): An open public involvement process is essential to the development of an effective plan.

The purpose of the following change matrix is to advise the reader of these changes updating this plan from the original document approved in April 2013. The purpose for the changes is three-fold: 1) the Federal Law (Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Title 44, Part 201.4) pertaining to Mitigation Planning has changed since the original Plan was undertaken; 2) this Plan will be an Addendum to the 2015 comprehensive and FEMA approved Region 5 Hazard Mitigation Plan and 3) the Local Mitigation Planning Requirements of the Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000 201.6 Plan Review states Plans must be reviewed, revised if appropriate, and resubmitted for approval within five years in order to continue to be eligible for HMGP project grant funding. This document when completed and approved will become an additional Addendum to the other jurisdictions encompassed in the 2015 approved Region 5 Hazard Mitigation Plan. Change Matrix This Matrix of Changes documents the pertinent changes made from the April 2013 City of Puyallup Hazard Mitigation Plan to the Region 5 All Hazard Mitigation Plan-2015-2020 Edition. The April 2013 plan was facilitated by the City of Puyallup. Most of the changes are a matter of additional detail, more information provided and reformatting to the current Pierce County DEM format. This 2018 version represents a complete review and update by the City of Puyallup and Pierce County Department of Emergency Management using a detailed process for development and following an established format.

The Acronym list appears in the Base Plan for the entire project. Plan Process The Region 5 Hazard Mitigation Plan Process Section is a discussion of the planning process used to update the Region 5 Hazard Mitigation Plan (Pierce County is Region 5 for Homeland Security (HLS) in Washington State, including how the process was prepared, who aided in the process, and the public involvement. The Plan update is developed around all major components identified in 44 CFR 201.6, including: • Public Involvement Process; • Jurisdiction Profile; • Capability Identification; • Risk Assessment; • Mitigation Strategy; • Infrastructure Section; and, • Plan Maintenance Procedure. Below is a summary of those elements and the processes involved in their development. Public Involvement Process Public participation is a key component to strategic planning processes. Citizen participation offers citizens the chance to voice their ideas, interests, and opinions. “Involving stakeholders who are not part of the core team in all stages of the process will introduce the planning team to different points of view about the needs of the community. It will also provide opportunities to educate the public about hazard mitigation, the planning process, and findings, and could be used to generate support for the mitigation plan.”1 In order to accomplish this goal and to ensure that the updated Region 5 Hazard Mitigation Plan be comprehensive, the seven planning groups in conjunction with Pierce County Department of Emergency Management developed a public participation process of three components: ---PAGE BREAK--- PAGE 1-7 REGION 5 ALL HAZARD MITIGATION PLAN – 2015-2020 EDITION CITY OF PUYALLUP ADDENDUM 1. A Planning Team comprised of knowledgeable individual representatives of HLS Region 5 area and its hazards; 2. Hazard Meetings to target the specialized knowledge of individuals working with populations or areas at risk from all hazards; and 3. Public meetings to identify common concerns and ideas regarding hazard mitigation and to discuss specific goals, objectives and measures of the mitigation plan. This section discusses each of these components in further detail below with public participation outlined in each. Integrating public participation into the development of the Region 5 Hazard Mitigation Plan update has helped to ensure an accurate depiction of the Region’s risks, vulnerabilities, and mitigation priorities. Planning Team The Planning Team for the Region 5 Hazard Mitigation update was organized early in 2012. The individual Region 5 Hazards Mitigation Planning Team members have an understanding of the portion of Pierce County containing their specific jurisdiction, including how residents, businesses, infrastructure, and the environment may be affected by all hazard events. The members are experienced in past and present mitigation activities, and represent those entities through which many of the mitigation measures would be implemented.

The City is in good standing in the NFIP as certified by Washington State Department of Ecology. The last Community Assistance Visit (CAV) was completed on July 14, 2005. Community Rating System (CRS) The City currently does not participate in the CRS. It is the intent and goal of the City to take those steps which are required to as funds and benefits are awarded. We are working with our planning and developing services to adopt the new FEMA flood maps and to become a CRS community and NFIP participate. Our plan is to continue to attend local meetings on the CRS process and education, any and all information on local flooding issues, and continue to educate our community through education and outreach programs on the issues. Cooperating Technical Partner (CTP) The City is a CTP with the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) for producing the new City-wide Digital Flood Insurance Rate Map (DFIRM). The City has been regulating to the preliminary DFIRM data since October 24, 2003 and the City was waiting for FEMA to issue a Letter of Final Determination so that DFIRM can be adopted. On March 7, 2017 the new DFIRM maps were adopted and the City is currently regulating to them. In addition our EMAT (Emergency Management Team) was visited by one of our State Farm Insurance Agency Representatives for an informational and educational updates on the Flood Insurance. What is and isn’t covered under Flood Insurance. Stormwater Engineer The City employs a Stormwater Engineer that falls under the direction of the City Engineer. The City intends to provide the opportunity to become a Certified Floodplain Manager to the newly hired Stormwater Engineer as Floodplain Management has been designated a duty of the Stormwater Engineer.

City Floodplain Permit Process Summary  All city permit applications are reviewed for conformance with FEMA flood hazard mitigation standards if the proposal occurs within a regulated flood plain.  Construction on lots within the flood plain requires that the lowest floor, including the basement, be elevated 1-foot minimum above the Base Flood Elevation (BFE) indicated on the Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) (PMC 21.07.060).  No occupancy permits are issued until such time as a Federal Emergency Management Agency Elevation Certificate is completed and submitted to the City of Puyallup.  All construction must mitigate any adverse effects to the flood plain (such as compensatory storage for any filling or grading).  All subdivisions and boundary line adjustments must delineate and state the category of flood risk on the face of the plat. Per PMC 19.12.030. Critical Area Regulatory Capability City Lahar Hazard Permit Process Summary All subdivisions and boundary line adjustments must state that the properties are located in a Lahar Hazard area on the face of the plat. Per PMC 19.12.030. City Landslide Permit Process Summary All development proposals on properties that contain a Landslide Hazard Area as depicted on the Pierce County “Critical Areas-Landslide Hazard Areas Map” are required to have licensed geologist preform a geological assessment to assess the potential for active landslide activity. If a landslide hazard site is verified in this report, then a minimum of a 25 ft. buffer around top, toe and edges of the slope. No alteration of slopes greater than 40% is allowed and alterations of slopes between 16- 39% and their associated buffers is greatly restricted. Trees must be retained on these slopes, in order to provide stabilize the soil (Puyallup Municipal Code 21.06.1230). ---PAGE BREAK--- PAGE 3-13 REGION 5 ALL HAZARD MITIGATION PLAN – 2015-2020 EDITION CITY OF CITY OF PUYALLUP ADDENDUM ENDNOTES 1 NFIP Insurance information is taken from the Community Information System (CIS) and acquired through FEMA Region 10 Sr. Regional Insurance Liaison (1/3/2018). ---PAGE BREAK--- PAGE 3-14 REGION 5 ALL HAZARD MITIGATION PLAN – 2015-2020 EDITION CITY OF PUYALLUP ADDENDUM (This page left blank intentionally) ---PAGE BREAK--- PAGE 4-1 REGION 5 ALL HAZARD MITIGATION PLAN – 2015-2020 EDITION CITY OF PUYALLUP ADDENDUM Section 4 Risk Assessment Requirements Identifying Hazards--- Requirement §201.6(c)(2)(i): [The risk assessment shall include a] description of the type … of all natural hazards that can affect the jurisdiction. • Does the new or updated plan include a description of the types of all natural hazards that affect the jurisdiction?

Each hazard is addressed as a threat and is identified and profiled in the Hazard Identification. The vulnerabilities to and consequences of a given hazard are addressed in the Vulnerability Analysis. Vulnerability is analyzed in terms of exposure of both population and infrastructure to each hazard. Consequences are identified as anticipated, predicted, or documented impacts caused by a given hazard when considering the vulnerability analysis and the characteristics of the hazard as outlined in its identification. The WA Region 5 Hazard Identification was used for this plan. Each jurisdiction’s Vulnerability and Consequence Analysis is based on the Region 5 Hazard Identification. The Region 5 Hazard Identification can be found in the Base Plan. Each hazard is identified in subsections. The subsections are grouped by hazard-type geological and meteorological hazards) and then alphabetically within each type. A summary table of the WA Region 5 Hazard Identification is included in this section as Table 4-1a and Table 4-1b. The Vulnerability Analysis is displayed in six tables: o Table 4-2 General Exposure o Table 4-3 Population Exposure o Table 4-4 General Infrastructure Exposure o Table 4-5a Consequence Analysis Chart – Geological o Table 4-5b Consequence Analysis Chart – Meteorological o Table 4-5c Consequence Analysis Chart – Technological Each jurisdiction has its own Vulnerability Analysis, and it is included in this section. The Consequence Identification is organized by Threat. Each threat page summarizes the hazard, graphically illustrates exposures from the Vulnerability Analysis, and lists corresponding Consequences. Each jurisdiction has its own Consequence Identification and it is included in this section: avalanche, earthquake, landslide, tsunami, volcanic, drought, flood, severe weather, and wildland/urban interface fire. RISK Threat Vulnerability Consequence ---PAGE BREAK--- PAGE 4-5 REGION 5 ALL HAZARD MITIGATION PLAN – 2015-2020 EDITION CITY OF PUYALLUP ADDENDUM Specific information and analysis of the City of Puyallup’s owned (public) infrastructure is addressed in the Infrastructure Section of its Plan. Through the Mitigation, Hazard Identification Risk Assessment (HIRA) and Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan (CEMP) planning process, the City of Puyallup has identified four major natural hazards that significantly affect the region. These hazards were chosen based on multiple criteria including high frequency and potential impact. The most common hazards are earthquake, flood, winter/severe storms and volcano eruption/lahar. They have been identified in all three plans and the likelihood of (re)occurrence and potential damage to life and property is illustrated. Additionally, certain man-made hazards such as fire, hazmat, and terrorism have been accounted for in the mitigation strategies and can be found in Section 5 of this plan. Geography and Climate The geography and climate of the Puyallup area natural offer rationale for the threats and vulnerabilities. Puyallup is made up of steep hills and low valleys. The city is located near water and generally has mild and steady rainfall annually. The make-up of the land and normal weather patterns make harsh weather an issue that needs to be accounted for and mitigated. Since the climate is typically mild, severe weather tends to hit the area harder and make a greater impact to certain critical services like transportation, communications and utilities. Earthquake Puyallup averages at least one earthquake every ten years. More recently they have become more frequent and at a higher rate of intensity. Over the last 20 years, the region has experienced earthquakes every two years and in 2001 we had three in one year. The highest likelihood for devastating damage will occur in the Puget Sound area and include a large part of Pierce County and King County. More detailed information on the impacts of earthquakes in the Puyallup region can be found on the Pierce County Department of Emergency Management website, WA State Department of Natural Resources and through the US Geological Survey and in the Region 5 All Hazard Mitigation Plan-Base Plan. Flood Since the City of Puyallup (located within Pierce County) is prone to flooding on an annual basis, a lot of information has been gathered on the potential and real impacts of flooding in the area and multiple mitigation strategies have been designed based on past disaster events and areas that are continually affected. The most common flood zones are rivers and creeks swelling due to heavy rainfall in urban areas and ice melting from Mount Rainier and the surrounding Cascade Mountain Range. Pierce County has had 22 federally declared disasters since 1960 and 11 of them were flooding incidents. The largest flood on record is the Puyallup River in 1996-1997. As population grows and urbanization expands, this increases the damages as a consequence of repetitive flooding. Also, it is important to note that changes in the temperature and climate have added to the frequency and magnitude of flooding incidents particularly over the last 20 years. ---PAGE BREAK--- PAGE 4-6 REGION 5 ALL HAZARD MITIGATION PLAN – 2015-2020 EDITION CITY OF PUYALLUP ADDENDUM Historically, the highest frequency flood areas in Puyallup are 12th Ave. SE and 25th Street SE, Meeker Ditch- 11th Street SW to 14th Street SW, Pioneer Creek on 14th Street SW and Clarks Creek. Severe Storms The Puyallup Hazard Identification Vulnerability Assessment contains records and disaster declarations of severe storms affecting Puyallup and the surrounding region such as windstorms, snowstorms, ice storms and tornadoes. Harsh weather, creating severe storms, affects the Puyallup area at least once every year and the damages/costs to our citizens are high. Volcano/lahar All of the City of Puyallup is directly and indirectly affected by volcanic hazards. Map 4-2 shows the lahar, pyroclastic flow and lava hazard areas, in and around the city. The map shows the lahar hazard and a great deal of the valley floor with each of the major river valleys comprises a portion of the lahar run out zone. Using Table 4-3, 21,162 people or 56% of the population in Puyallup live in the hazard zone, and will need to evacuate within 80 minutes. USGS volcanologists and Washington Department of Natural Resources (DNR) geologists identify Mt. Rainier as being in an active eruptive window. From the magnitude of past events, they surmise that the consequences of a lahar or debris flow down the populated river valleys will be catastrophic and could potentially result in a tremendous loss of life and property. Over 150,000 inhabitants of the river valleys work and reside on the deposits of prehistoric and historic debris flows. A spontaneous lahar is most likely to happen due to the collapse of a portion of the headwall above the Puyallup Glacier on the west flank of Mt. Rainier. The Mt. Rainier Lahar Warning System composed of sensors to detect the lahar, and radio transmitters to send that information back to Pierce County and Washington State warning points is in place to help prevent a lahar coming down either the Puyallup or Carbon Rivers from taking the communities by surprise. Having a warning system in place does not mean that everyone will be able to evacuate the valley bottoms in time. The short time between the warning and the inundation of homes, schools, roads and businesses will not allow the entire population to escape. In the upper valley south of the confluence of the Puyallup and Carbon Rivers there could be many fatalities. The likelihood of a volcano erupting and affecting Puyallup from Mt. Saint Helens or Mt. Rainier is relatively low compared to the other hazards, but the amount of damage and devastation it would cause is high. Pierce County DEM maintains a “Mt. Rainier Volcanic Hazards Response Plan” that details the monitoring, planning, operational response and historical data surrounding a volcanic eruption in the region. There is also a committee that meets quarterly at Pierce County Emergency Management on the plan and ideas to improve and update sections including evacuation from the valley. ---PAGE BREAK--- PAGE 4-7 REGION 5 ALL HAZARD MITIGATION PLAN – 2015-2020 EDITION CITY OF PUYALLUP ADDENDUM The Lahar warning system is tested the first Monday of every month and includes Puyallup, 911 Center and Pierce County. Additionally, Puyallup tests the system bi-annually with schools in May and October. Puyallup EM is an original member of the Lahar group that provided funding and delivered presentations along with Pierce County DEM. Pipeline Northwest Pipeline, LLC is in the process of replacing 140 miles of natural gas pipeline across Washington State. The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) has issued a joint Draft Environmental Impact Statement of the Oregon and Washington projects. A segment of the Washington project called the “Sumner South Loop” includes approximately 3.5 miles of 30- inch pipe that runs through the city limits of Puyallup along easements, most of which are on private property. The pipeline company is in the process of contacting owners of all the properties which contain an easement. They have asked property owners to, “Please check the map to determine if your property has such an easement on or near it; if so, you are strongly encouraged to review the draft EIS”. The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission will accept comments on the draft EIS through October 6, 2015. Changes in Development Over the past 5 years Puyallup has experienced steady growth in residential (mostly single- family) and commercial development. Most of the growth experienced has been along the perimeter of the city or in areas with larger undeveloped parcels. This has been a continuation of the development patterns Puyallup has been experiencing for the past few decades. Since 2012, the City has annexed approximately 147 acres of land into the City. Most of the annexed land is agricultural or industrial land or single-family parcels. The City of Puyallup adopted FEMA’s most current flood maps in the first quarter of 2017. Along with the adoption of the maps the City updated Title 21 of the Puyallup Municipal Code which established more control over the development on the valley floor. The City continues to work with landowners to establish Base Flood Elevation (BFE) for areas of the valley that are lacking elevation data. In other mitigation, the City has identified through the planning process the need to retrofit its water reservoirs with earthquake restraints. The earthquake retrofit projects has been added to the ten-year capital improvement project list and awaits funding. As development continues and more people are moving into the City of Puyallup the risk of identified hazards impacting the population increases. The City of Puyallup continues to monitor the infrastructure, incorporate elements of the mitigation plan into existing plans, ordinances and programs to dictate land uses and educate the public of hazards through community outreach. Section 5, Mitigation Strategies identifies measures to build the resiliency within the City and have been reviewed and reprioritized to reflect the changes in development trends. ---PAGE BREAK--- PAGE 4-8 REGION 5 ALL HAZARD MITIGATION PLAN – 2015-2020 EDITION CITY OF PUYALLUP ADDENDUM Table 4-1a WA Region 5 Hazard Identification Summary – Geological THREAT DECLARATION # DATE/PLACE PROBABILITY/ RECURRENCE MAPS, FIGURES AND TABLES Geological AVALANCHE Not Applicable Yearly in the mountainous areas of the County including Mt.

Impact to the Environment Yes Impact to the Jurisdiction Economic Condition Yes Impact to Reputation or Confidence in Jurisdiction Yes Summary Vulnerability and Impact Analysis Puyallup has a long history of emergencies and disasters both natural and manmade. Some of the potential disasters that could affect the City such as a major lahar from Mount Rainier have not happened for hundreds of years, yet the result could be a catastrophic loss of life, disruption of the City’s infrastructure and long term economic devastation. Since 1962 Pierce County has been included in over 26 presidentially declared disasters. While storms and floods make up the bulk of these, there are others including the 2001 Nisqually earthquake and other smaller earthquakes, and the 1980 volcanic eruption of Mt. St. Helens. In addition to these there are many smaller emergencies, which can and have caused major disruption in the past. In assessing vulnerability, we know that we have to identify consequences (to people and property) and estimate or forecast potential losses. However, we don’t have the ability to perform this task in its entirety. What we do know is that all city facilities are presently insured by the City of Puyallup through The Washington Cities Insurance Authority. They are insured for replacement value as well as impacts which might occur due to being damaged and either partially or totally destroyed. Until then, we have identified those critical facilities and systems within the City and they are plotted on our Critical Facilities map. Based on limited information of historical disaster impacts, an estimate of potential future losses comes from the amounts listed in the Infrastructure Table 6-6 (this information is exempt from public disclosure). ---PAGE BREAK--- PAGE 4-28 REGION 5 ALL HAZARD MITIGATION PLAN – 2015-2020 EDITION CITY OF PUYALLUP ADDENDUM Endnotes 1 The Flood Insurance Study (FIS) and Digital Flood Insurance Rate Map (DFIRM) for Pierce County, WA and Incorporated Areas became effective on March 7, 2017. The intended purposes of this flood layer data are to support the National Flood Insurance Program so that flood insurance policies can be written for any qualifying structure in the community. Areas of moderate risk or areas suspected to be at risk of flooding but where no detailed flood study has been completed are shown as Zone X (Shaded). 2 “If you have received two or more claim payments of more than $1,000 from the National Flood Insurance Program within any rolling 10-year period for your home or business, your property is considered a Repetitive Loss (RL) structure”. FEMA.gov 3 Info obtained from Pierce County GIS application, CountyView Pro (2017). 4 Currently the expanding body of empirical data on climate change supports its basic premise that the long-term average temperature of the earth's atmosphere has been increasing for decades (1850 to 2008). This trend is continuing and will create dramatic changes in the local environment of Pierce County. Today, questions revolve around the overall increase in local temperature and its long-term effects. Climate change today refers to variations in either regional or global environments over time. Time can refer to periods ranging in length from a few decades to other periods covering millions of years. A number of circumstances can cause climate change. Included herein are such diverse factors as solar cycles, volcanic eruptions, changing ocean current patterns, or even something as unusual as a methane release from the ocean floor. Over the past 150 years good temperature records have allowed comparisons to be made of global temperatures from year-to-year. This has shown an overall increase of approximately 0.7o C during this period. An increasing body of scientific evidence implies that the primary impetus driving climate change today is an increase in atmospheric green house gases. 5 Jurisdiction is not vulnerable to this hazard; therefore, it is marked NA or non-applicable. 6 It should be noted here that although all residents, all property and all infrastructure of the City of Puyallup are vulnerable to earthquake shaking, not all are subject to the affects of liquefaction and liquefiable soils which is what is represented here. 7 The threat of volcanic ashfall affects the entire Region 5 however some jurisdictions are specifically threatened by lahar flows directly from Mt. Rainier; an active volcano. 8 The entire jurisdiction is vulnerable to drought. There are three things that must be understood about the affect of drought on the jurisdiction: 1) Drought is a Region wide event. When it does affect Pierce County, it will affect every jurisdiction, 2) Drought will gradually develop over time. It is a gradually escalating emergency that may take from months to years to affect the jurisdiction. Initially lack of water may not even be noticed by the citizens. However, as the drought continues, its effects will be noticed by a continually expanding portion of the community until it is felt by all, and 3) Jurisdictions will be affected differently at different times as a drought develops. This will vary depending on the needs of each local jurisdiction. Some examples are: jurisdictions that have industry that requires a continuous supply of a large quantity of water; others have agriculture that requires water, but may only require it at certain times of the year; and, some jurisdictions have a backup source of water while others do not. 9 According to the most recent information from the Department of Natural Resources, the City of Puyallup while undergoing development does not have large areas of forested land that could develop into a wildland/urban interface fire. Further study is needed to determine the extent of the area that could be affected. 10 The definition of Abandoned Mines comes from the 2010 Pierce County HIRA: Abandoned mines are any excavation under the surface of the earth, formerly used to extract metallic ores, coal, or other minerals, and that are no longer in production. 11 The definition of Civil Disturbance comes from the 2010 Pierce County HIRA: Civil Disturbance (unrest) is the result of groups or individuals within the population feeling, or wrongly, that their needs or rights are not being met, either by the society at large, a segment thereof, or the current overriding political system. When this results in community disruption of a nature where intervention is required to maintain public safety it has become a civil disturbance. Additionally, the Region 5 Strategic Plan includes Operational Objectives 3 & 4: Intelligence Gathering, Indicators, Warnings, etc; and Intelligence and Information Sharing. 12 The definition of Dam Failure comes from the 2010 Pierce County HIRA: A dam is any “barrier built across a watercourse for impounding water.12” Dam failures are catastrophic events “characterized by the sudden, rapid, and uncontrolled release of impounded water. The vulnerability analysis was based on the potential dam failure from ---PAGE BREAK--- PAGE 4-29 REGION 5 ALL HAZARD MITIGATION PLAN – 2015-2020 EDITION CITY OF PUYALLUP ADDENDUM Mud Mountain Dam and Lake Tapps using Pierce County’s GIS data which originated from each of the dam’s emergency plans inundation maps. 13 The definition of an Energy Emergency comes from the 2010 Pierce County HIRA: Energy emergency refers to an out-of-the-ordinary disruption, or shortage, of an energy resource for a period of time. Additionally, the Region 5 Strategic Plan addresses Energy Emergencies in its Operational Objective 32, Restoration of Lifelines which addresses the restoration of critical services such as oil, gas, natural gas, electric, etc. 14 The definition of epidemic comes from the Flu Plan of 2005: A Pandemic is an epidemic occurring over a very wide area and usually affecting a large proportion of the population. Pandemics occur when a wholly new subtype of influenza A virus emerges. A “novel” virus can develop when a virulent flu strain that normally infects birds or animals infects a human who has influenza; the two viruses can exchange genetic material, creating a new, virulent flu virus that can be spread easily from person-to-person. Unlike the flu we see yearly, no one would be immune to this new flu virus, which would spread quickly, resulting in widespread epidemic disease – a pandemic. (DOH Plan & U.S. Dept. of HHS). 15 The definition of Hazardous Materials comes from the 2010 Pierce County HIRA: Hazardous materials are materials, which because of their chemical, physical or biological properties, pose a potential risk to life, health, the environment, or property when not properly contained. A hazardous materials release then is the release of the material from its container into the local environment. A general rule of thumb for safety from exposure to hazardous material releases is 1000ft; the Emergency Response Guidebook 2008, established by the US Dept of Transportation, contains advice per specific materials. The vulnerability analysis was broken into two sub sections for a better understanding of the hazard using Pierce County’s GIS data with a 500-foot buffer on either side of the railroads and major roadways. 16 The definition of Pipeline Emergency comes from the 2010 Pierce County HIRA: While there are many different substances transported through pipelines including sewage, water and even beer, pipelines, for the purpose of this chapter, are transportation arteries carrying liquid and gaseous fuels. They may be buried or above ground 17 The definition of Terrorism comes from the 2010 Pierce County HIRA: Terrorism has been defined by the Federal Bureau of Investigation as, “the unlawful use of force or violence against persons or property to intimidate or coerce a Government, the civilian population or any segment thereof, in furtherance of political or social objectives.” These acts can vary considerably in their scope, from cross burnings and the spray painting of hate messages to the destruction of civilian targets. In some cases, violence in the schools has also been labeled as a form of terrorism. 18 The definition of Transportation Accident comes from the 2010 Pierce County HIRA: Transportation accidents as used in this assessment include accidents involving a method of transportation on the road, rail, air, and maritime systems within the confines of Pierce County. The vulnerability analysis was broken into three sub sections for a better understanding of the hazard using Pierce County’s GIS data; Commencement Bay to include inland rivers and streams, railroads, and roads. A 200-foot buffer was applied to all the shorelines and a 500-foot buffer on either side of the railroads and roadways. 19 In the Impact to Property, Facilities and Infrastructure, both Tables 4-5a and 4-5b, look at the impact to all property, facilities and infrastructure existing in the jurisdiction, not just to that owned by the jurisdiction. 20 The consideration for each of these hazards, in both Tables 4-5a and 4-5b, as to whether an individual hazard’s consequences exist or not, is based on a possible worst-case scenario. It must also be understood that a “yes” means that there is a good possibility that the consequence it refers to could happen as a result of the hazard, not that it will. Conversely “No” means that it is highly unlikely that consequence will have a major impact, not that there will be no impact at all. 21 While the major volcanic hazard from Mt. Rainier is from a lahar descending the main river valleys surrounding the mountain, it is not the only problem. Most jurisdictions could receive tephra in greater or lesser amounts, sometimes with damaging results.

This section details the formal process that will guarantee the Puyallup Hazard Mitigation Plan continues to remain an active and relevant document. The Plan Maintenance Section includes a description of the documentation citing the plan's formal adoption by the Puyallup City Council. The section also describes the method and schedule of monitoring, evaluating, and updating within the next five-year cycle; the process for incorporating the mitigation strategy into existing mechanisms and the process for integrating public participation throughout the plan maintenance. The section serves as a guide for implementation of the hazard mitigation strategy. Plan Adoption Upon completion of the Puyallup Hazard Mitigation Plan it will be submitted to Washington State Emergency Management Division (EMD) for a Pre-Adoption Review. The EMD has 30 days to review and approve the plan and forward it to the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Region X for review. This review, which is allowed 45 days by law, will address the federal criteria outlined in FEMA Interim Final Rule 44 CFR Part 201.6. In completing this review, there may be revisions requested by the EMD and/or FEMA. Revisions could include changes to background information, editorial comments, and the alteration of technical content. Pierce County Department of Emergency Management (PC DEM) will call a Planning Team Meeting to address any revisions needed and resubmit the plan with appropriate changes. The Puyallup City Council is responsible for the adoption of the plan after the Pre-Adoption Review by the EMD and the FEMA Region X. Once the City adopts the plan, the City Clerk will be responsible for submitting it, with a copy of the signed resolution, to the State Hazard Mitigation Officer at Washington State EMD. EMD will then take action on the Plan and forward it to the FEMA Region X for final approval. Upon approval by FEMA, the City will gain eligibility for both Hazard Mitigation Grant Program and Pre-Disaster Mitigation Grant Program funds. Appendix A will list the dates and include a copy of the signed resolution from the jurisdiction as well as a copy of the FEMA letter approving of the jurisdiction’s plan. In future updates of the plan, Appendix C will be used to track changes and/or updates. This plan will have to be re-adopted and re-approved prior to the five-year deadline of February 9, 2020, which is Region 5’s plan deadline. Maintenance Strategy The City of Puyallup maintenance strategy for implementation, monitoring, and evaluation provides a structure that encourages collaboration, information transference, and innovation. Through a multi-tiered implementation method, the City will provide its citizens a highly localized approach to loss reduction while serving their needs through coordinated policies and programs. The method’s emphasis, on all levels of participation, promotes public ---PAGE BREAK--- PAGE 7-4 REGION 5 ALL HAZARD MITIGATION PLAN – 2015-2020 EDITION CITY OF PUYALLUP ADDENDUM involvement and adaptability to changing risks and vulnerabilities. Finally, it will provide a tangible link between citizens and the various levels of government service, ranging from community action to the Department of Homeland Security. Through this strategy, Puyallup will continue to break the disaster cycle and achieve a more disaster resistant community. Implementation In order to ensure efficient and effective implementation, the City of Puyallup will make use of its capabilities, infrastructure, and dedicated population. The City will implement its mitigation strategy over the next two years primarily through the annual City of Puyallup budget process and varying grant application processes. All programs and entities identified in the Capability Identification Section will serve as the implementing mechanisms within those processes. The Puyallup Department of Emergency Management will work in conjunction with those departments/agencies/entities identified in both the Capability Identification Section and under each mitigation measure to initiate the mitigation strategy. For example, any infrastructure-related measures will be implemented through the City’s infrastructure related Capitol Improvement plans, such as the Capital Facilities Plan, and the various departments and/or agencies involved through the normal budget schedule. Regulatory and land use measures will continue to be implemented through collaboration with the City’s Development Services Department and the Planning Commission. Any updates or amendments of the City Comprehensive Plan will include hazard mitigation, as necessary. Other measures will be implemented through collaboration with the identified jurisdictions/departments listed under each measure’s evaluation and through the mechanisms and funding sources identified in the Capability Identification Section. These efforts fall under a broader implementation strategy that represents a county-wide effort. This strategy must be adaptable to change while being consistent in its delivery. The mitigation implementation strategy is a three-tiered method that emphasizes localized needs and vulnerabilities while addressing City as well as multi-jurisdictional policies and programs. The first tier is implementation through individual citizen level—existing (for example, at the neighborhood level through the Community Emergency Response Teams (CERT) or the Citizens Corps Program). The second tier is the Hazard Mitigation Committee (HMC), a city-wide committee comprised of governmental representatives. The third tier is a more external and multi-jurisdictional mechanism, the Hazard Mitigation Forum (HMF) for all of Region 5. This method ensures that implementation speaks to unique vulnerabilities at the most local level, allows for coordination among and between levels, and promotes collaboration and innovation. Further, it provides a structured system of monitoring implementation. Finally, it is a method that can adapt to the changing vulnerabilities of the City, the region, and the times. These three levels and their means of implementation and collaboration are described below. ---PAGE BREAK--- PAGE 7-5 REGION 5 ALL HAZARD MITIGATION PLAN – 2015-2020 EDITION CITY OF PUYALLUP ADDENDUM Public Education Programs At the individual citizen level, public education programs provide the City with a localized mechanism for implementation. This approach to mitigation can adapt to the varying vulnerabilities and needs within the growing City and region. Public education programs are also a means for involving the public in mitigation policy development. Departments conducting mitigation-related programs will provide the existing targeted neighborhoods and special-needs populations a catalogue of mitigation measures from which individuals can choose those that would be most effective in their neighborhood. For example, three community/neighborhood strategies are in place in the Puyallup area. These are CERT (Community Emergency Response Teams), PC-NET, and Map Your Neighborhood. For various reasons, all three strategies are in place and will remain that way for a length of time. Through these groups though, the continuing strengthening of preparedness will continue to grow. Puyallup DEM will continue to work with the public educators from the Puyallup Police and Central Pierce Fire & Rescue to integrate preparedness into their public education strategies. When public presentations are made, hazard mitigation will be presented to allow public interaction and input. The public education efforts of the City’s surface water management programs incorporate National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) recommendations. We have adopted the most recent FEMA flood maps and are working with our planning and development services divisions to become a Community Rating System (CRS) participant community. We will continue to attend local meetings on the CRS process, collect updated information on local flooding issues, and conduct public outreach to educate our community on how to reduce flood damage. These efforts will improve the public’s knowledge and awareness of flood issues and what can be done to address and mitigate flood hazards, potentially improving our CRS rating which would result in lower flood insurance rates for our affected property owners. Jurisdiction-Wide: Hazard Mitigation Committee The HMC is the body responsible for determining the direction of mitigation policy recommendations and is responsible for reviewing the performance measures and Plan implementation. The HMC represents a city-wide group of hazard experts and government employees whose departments are responsible for many of the implementation activities. This Committee is composed of representatives from various departments within the city and its response partners. The Committee is responsible for collaborating on city-wide policies and programs on the county-wide level. Meetings occur annually to coincide with the normal budgeting processes and provide an ample time period for review and adoption of any necessary changes to the implementation schedule. The HMC is responsible for monitoring, evaluating, and updating the Plan (discussed below). This monitoring will be conducted by the Puyallup Emergency Manager. The meeting will be to review the current plan, suggest new mitigation strategies, and report on completed ones. Public input will be reported on, as well as recommendations ---PAGE BREAK--- PAGE 7-6 REGION 5 ALL HAZARD MITIGATION PLAN – 2015-2020 EDITION CITY OF PUYALLUP ADDENDUM from Emergency Operations Center drills and activations. The results of this meeting will be documented and reported to the Pierce County Hazard Mitigation officer. Multiple members of the Hazard Mitigation Committee are involved in the city’s Emergency Operations Center team. The team trains and drills quarterly. Debriefings are conducted after each session, and any relevant comments will be reported at the annual Hazard Committee meeting. Likewise, any EOC activations will create after-action reports, and recommendations germane to hazard mitigation will be reported and discussed at the annual meeting. Hazard Mitigation Forum The PC Hazard Mitigation Forum (HMF) represents a broader and multi-jurisdictional approach to mitigation implementation. The PC HMF will be comprised of representatives from unincorporated Pierce County and all jurisdictions, partially or wholly, within its borders that have undertaken mitigation planning efforts. The PC HMF will serve as coordinating body for projects of a multi-jurisdictional nature and will provide a mechanism to share successes and increase the cooperation necessary to break the disaster cycle and achieve a disaster resistant Pierce County. Members of the PC HMF will include the following jurisdictions who have completed, or who have begun the process of completing, DMA 2000 compliant plans:  City of Bonney Lake  City of Buckley  City of DuPont  City of Edgewood  City of Fife  City of Fircrest  City of Gig Harbor  City of Lakewood  City of Milton  City of Orting  City of Roy  City of Sumner  City of Puyallup  City of University Place  City of Tacoma  Town of Carbonado  Town of Eatonville  Town of South Prairie  Town of Steilacoom  Town of Wilkeson  Pierce County  Central Pierce Fire and Rescue  East Pierce Fire and Rescue  Gig Harbor Fire and Medic One  Graham Fire and Rescue  Key Peninsula Fire Department  Orting Valley Fire and Rescue  Pierce County Fire District 13  Pierce County Fire District 14  Pierce County Fire District 23  Pierce County Fire District 27  South Pierce Fire and Rescue  West Pierce Fire and Rescue  Bethel School District  Carbonado School District  Dieringer School District  Clover Park School District  Fife School District  Eatonville School District  Orting School District  Franklin Pierce School District  Peninsula School District  Pacific Lutheran University  Steilacoom School District ---PAGE BREAK--- PAGE 7-7 REGION 5 ALL HAZARD MITIGATION PLAN – 2015-2020 EDITION CITY OF PUYALLUP ADDENDUM  Puyallup School District  Tacoma School District  Sumner School District  American Red Cross  University Place School District  Village HOA  River Ranch HOA  Metropolitan Park District  Herron Island HOA  Port of Tacoma  Pierce Transit  Riviera Community Club  Raft Island HOA  Clear Lake Water District  Taylor Bay Beach Club  Fruitland Mutual Water Company  Firgrove Mutual Water Company  Lakeview Light and Power  Graham Hill Mutual Water Company  Mt.

The City of Puyallup will be an active participant in the PC HMF, and will be represented by the designated Planning Partner or their representative, typically the Emergency Manager. Only through this level of cooperation can these jurisdictions meet all of their mitigation goals. Plan Evaluation and Update It should be noted this planning process began in early 2017 following the then current CFR 201.6 Hazard Mitigation Planning Requirements. Based on new requirements in the Stafford Act, the City of Puyallup will evaluate and update the plan to incorporate these new requirements as necessary. Furthermore, if there are additional Stafford Act changes affecting CFR 201.6 in the coming years, the planning process will incorporate those as well. The Puyallup Hazard Mitigation Plan will guide the City’s mitigation efforts for the foreseeable future. This includes the yearly review by the HMC for any updates from drills, or events. The City of Puyallup representatives on the Planning Team have developed a method to ensure that regular review and update of the plan occur within a five- year cycle. The PC DEM will coordinate any reviews through the spring 2018 meeting noted above. PC DEM will collaborate with the City and the PC HMF to monitor and evaluate the mitigation strategy implementation. Findings will be presented and discussed at the annual HMF meeting. ---PAGE BREAK--- PAGE 7-8 REGION 5 ALL HAZARD MITIGATION PLAN – 2015-2020 EDITION CITY OF PUYALLUP ADDENDUM The City Manager will provide a report of the plan’s implementation to the City Council after the Pierce County Forum. This report will drive the meeting agendas and will include the following:  Updates on implementation throughout the City;  Updates on the PC HMF and mitigation activities undertaken by neighboring jurisdictions;  Changes or anticipated changes in hazard risk and vulnerability at the City, county, regional, State, FEMA and Homeland Security levels;  Problems encountered or success stories;  Any technical or scientific advances that may alter, make easier, or create measures. The Hazard Mitigation Committee will decide on updates to the plan’s strategy based on the above information and a discussion of:  The various resources available through budgetary means as well as any relevant grants;  The current and expected political environment and public opinion;  Meeting the mitigation goals with regards to changing conditions. This will be done at the following annual Hazard Mitigation Committee meeting. PC DEM will work with the City to review the Risk Assessment Section to determine if the current assessment should be updated or modified based on new information. This will be done during the regularly scheduled reviews of the Hazard Identification and Vulnerability Analysis and the Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan. Additional reviews of this Plan will be required following disaster events and will not substitute for the annual meeting. Within ninety days following a significant disaster or an emergency event impacting the City, the City’s designated Emergency Manager will provide an assessment that captures any “success stories” and/or “lessons learned.” The assessment will detail direct and indirect damages to the City and its infrastructure, response and recovery costs, as part of the standard recovery procedures that use EMD Forms 129, 130, and 140. This process will help determine any new mitigation initiatives that should be incorporated into the plan to avoid or reduce similar losses due to future hazard events. In this manner, recovery efforts and data will be used to analyze mitigation activities and spawn the development of new measures that better address any changed vulnerabilities or capabilities. Any updates to the plan will be addressed at the annual November meeting. The Mitigation Plan only establishes the frame work for mitigation efforts. The city’s Mitigation Plan meets the requirements of the 44 CFR 201.6 through mitigation efforts and practices in a number of other planning and control mechanisms like the City of Puyallup Comprehensive Plan, Capital Improvement Plan, Transportation Plan, Water and Sewer Plan, Storm Drain, and the Growth Management Act. The Critical Lands Ordinances, Engineering Guidelines and other adopted codes are examples of this process ---PAGE BREAK--- PAGE 7-9 REGION 5 ALL HAZARD MITIGATION PLAN – 2015-2020 EDITION CITY OF PUYALLUP ADDENDUM As per 44 CFR 201.6, the City of Puyallup will have an annual update and review after every EOC activation and re-evaluate the plan which must re-submit the plan to the State and FEMA with any updates every five years. This process will be coordinated by PC DEM through the Pierce County Hazard Mitigation Forum. In 2020 and every five years following at the Hazard Mitigation Forum, the City of Puyallup Hazard Mitigation Committee will submit the updated plan to PC DEM. PC DEM’s Mitigation and Recovery Program Manager will collect updates from any Region 5 Plan jurisdictions and submit them to the State EMD and FEMA within the appropriate timeframes. Continued Public Involvement The City of Puyallup is dedicated to continued public involvement and education in review and updates of this plan. The City of Puyallup Emergency Management Department and the Planning Department will retain copies of the plan, make it available to the public and post it on the City website1. The three-tiered implementation method provides an opportunity for continuous public involvement. Public Education campaigns are a means of informing the public on updates and implementation activities. Further, prior to submitting the plan to WA EMD and FEMA for the five-year review, the City of Puyallup will hold a public information and comment meeting. This meeting will provide citizens a forum during which they can express their concerns, opinions, or ideas about the City of Puyallup Hazard Mitigation Plan. This meeting will be advertised by the City through a variety of media, including the local newspaper and a posting on the website. For documentation of these public information and comment meetings, see Appendix E. The City of Puyallup will conduct a review on a yearly basis to ensure all elements of the mitigation plan are updated and accurate. Each of the 76 jurisdictions has been tasked with having to provide documentation on public involvement including a brief description for each public hearing held, a summary on attendance, any feedback received from the public and the an overall description of what was accomplished. Even further, the City of Puyallup will provide proof of their attempts for public involvement such as screenshots of websites including date ranges, flyers and other relevant material documenting the public involvement process. Lastly, the City of Puyallup will look for new innovative ways for public involvement, and report their successes to Pierce County. ---PAGE BREAK--- PAGE 7-10 REGION 5 ALL HAZARD MITIGATION PLAN – 2015-2020 EDITION CITY OF PUYALLUP ADDENDUM Endnotes 1 www.cityofpuyallup.org ---PAGE BREAK--- APPENDIX PAGE A-1 REGION 5 ALL HAZARD MITIGATION PLAN – 2015-2020 EDITION CITY OF PUYALLUP ADDENDUM APPENDIX A REGION 5 ALL HAZARD MITIGATION PLAN 2015-2020 EDITION CITY OF PUYALLUP Plan Adoption The “Region 5 Hazard Mitigation Plan” was adopted by the City of Puyallup’s City Council on August 21, 2018 by resolution number 2230.

Information was based on ShakeMaps developed by U.S. Geological Survey for a 7.1M earthquake occurring on the Tacoma Fault, 7.2M earthquake on the Nisqually Fault and a 7.2M earthquake on the SeaTac Fault. There was a total of four Essential Facilities that were modeled; fire stations, police stations, schools and hospitals. Additional information can be found in the Risk Assessment Section of the Pierce County All Hazard Mitigation Plan. Inherent Errors As a special note to the Gig Harbor and Key Peninsula areas St. Anthony’s Hospital is not identified on Maps D-12, D-13, D-21, D-22, D-30 or D-31 due to the recent construction of St. Anthony’s Hospital and lack of data. With future updates of the Region 5 All Hazard Mitigation Plan, St. Anthony’s Hospital will be included in the scenario analysis. If this information becomes available prior to the five-year update in 2020, revised analysis will be done and the revised maps will be distributed to the City of Gig Harbor, Gig Harbor Fire & Medic One and the Key Peninsula Fire Department. It has been identified that the police station located to the west side of Orting is not in the correct location as seen on Maps: D-10, D-11, D-19, D-20, D-28 and D-29. The police department shares a building with the Fire District #18 at 401 Washington Ave S, which is located in the middle of town. As Hazus-MH is updated the police station will show a co-location with the fire station at this same location. If this information becomes available prior to the five-year update in 2020, revised analysis will be done and the revised maps will be distributed to the City of Orting and to Pierce County Fire District #18. ---PAGE BREAK--- APPENDIX D-2 REGION 5 ALL HAZARD MITIGATION PLAN – 2015-2020 EDITION CITY OF PUYALLUP ADDENDUM (This page left blank intentionally) ---PAGE BREAK--- APPENDIX D-3 REGION

The meeting was open to the public for comments and questions regarding the Hazard Mitigation Plan and discussing the hazards the City of Puyallup faces. Additionally, preparedness information was also available to the public as a public outreach component to the meeting. The City of Puyallup had representation from the Planning and Land Services and the Department of Emergency Management. Pierce County Emergency Management also attended and with the new release of the FEMA Flood Map on March 7, 2017, Pierce County Surface Water Management also attended to answer any questions the public might have regarding the new flood maps. Although attendance was not in abundance those citizens who did attend were engaged and understood the hazards the City of Puyallup faces. One gentleman knew the efforts the city has gone to with the seismic construction of its buildings. The meeting was posted in the newspaper and on the City’s website. The Planning Team will evaluate their methodologies to see ways to increase public participation with future Public Comment Meetings.

The Planning Team decided to hold the final public review prior to a Council Meeting in the Council Chambers foyer due to the large volume of public participants it draws. This was an effort to reach out to the public not only to discuss the Mitigation Plan in its final stages but an opportunity to display hazard maps of the City of Puyallup and distribute preparedness materials to citizens. This was well received by the citizens and provided the opportunities to engage them with the mitigation plan and hazards. A number of high school students attended the Council Meeting as a school requirement and this was a great outreach moment to engage them in preparedness awareness also. The participants commented on the thoroughness of the mitigation plan and what it will accomplish for the City of Puyallup. The consistent comment during this open house was the lack of knowledge the mitigation plan existed. The planning team discussed opportunities to further the awareness of the mitigation plan to the public and for continued efforts to educate them on preparedness for hazards. Safety Fairs and the summer concerts in the park draw large volumes of people and the planning team will incorporate those venues into its public outreach efforts on preparedness. Figure E-4 Snapshot of Final Public Comment Meeting posted on the City of Puyallup’s website The Puyallup Herald News reported publicized an article on the Mitigation Plan and the article was picked up by the Tacoma News Tribune as seen on the following 4 pages.

Allison Needles [EMAIL REDACTED] NOVEMBER 29, 2017 09:31 AM When it comes to natural hazards in Puyallup, the area is vulnerable to pretty much all of them. In past years, Puyallup has dealt with its fair share of flooding, severe weather, earthquakes and landslides. And with Mount Rainier not far away, Puyallup is also one of the many cities vulnerable to a volcanic eruption and lahars. With all of that in mind, Kristin Hofmann, emergency operations manager for the city of Puyallup, said it’s best for Puyallup residents to be aware of what they can do to stay safe in any scenario. “Our recommendation is all-hazards preparation — be prepared for anything,” Hofmann said. OUR RECOMMENDATION IS ALL-HAZARDS PREPARATION—BE PREPARED FOR ANYTHING. Kristin Hofmann, emergency operations manager for the city of Puyallup Once every five years, Puyallup tackles an update to its Hazard Mitigation Plan. The plan “serves as a blueprint for reducing risks to life and property by lessening the impact of known potential hazards.” The plan aims to achieve a variety of goals, including reducing the “vulnerability of the City’s economy to disaster” and improving “community understanding of the particular hazards that threaten the city.” So how do these natural hazards rank in Puyallup? According to Puyallup’s current Hazard Mitigation Plan, Puyallup is most vulnerable to earthquakes. In 2001, Puyallup sustained damage from a 6.8 earthquake, but is at risk for more damage if a shallower earthquake were to occur. Puyallup is also at risk when it comes to volcanic eruptions. Mount Rainier is one of the most hazardous mountains in the world due to the population within the mountain’s lahar zone, which includes Puyallup. Windstorms are tied with volcanic hazards with the second highest rating among the hazards affecting Puyallup. Strong wind batters Puyallup more frequently than other hazards, and windstorms occur annually. Other severe storm hazards include snow, ice and freezing rain. Residents on South Hill are more vulnerable to severe storms, being located on higher land than the Puyallup Valley. ---PAGE BREAK--- APPENDIX PAGE E-8 REGION 5 ALL HAZARD MITIGATION PLAN – 2015-2020 EDITION CITY OF PUYALLUP ADDENDUM But the most common hazard in Puyallup has to do with flooding. Flooding, as well as earthquakes, can also result in landslide hazards, several of which occurred this year. THE MOST COMMON HAZARD IN PUYALLUP HAS TO DO WITH FLOODING. The Hazard Mitigation Plan is updated as new land is annexed and population grows. And now, the Hazard Mitigation Plan prepares for more than just natural hazards. “One of the biggest things we’ve added is all the technological and man-made (hazards),” said Debbie Bailey, program coordinator for the Pierce County Department of Emergency Management. This year, the Hazard Mitigation Plan looks more closely at man-made hazards such as abandoned mines, levees and dams, terrorism and even wild urban interfaces, or forests mixing with urban areas that could increase fire risks. Bailey said new hazards are always being considered. “In our next update, we want to look more at climate change,” she said. An open house was held on Nov. 14 to inform the public about the updated plan and to hear comments and concerns from citizens. There, citizens also learned some tips for what to do in such events. Residents can prepare by having plans for what to do during emergencies or evacuations, making sure their homes are retrofitted and up-to-code for earthquake risks and creating “Grab-N-Go Buckets.” Hofmann supplied residents with a checklist of supplies they should have in their emergency buckets, and to keep them inside both cars and houses, just in case: Flashlights Headlamp Toiletry kit First Aid Kit Trash bags Blanket Weather radio Pocket knife Whistle Important documents Roll of duct tape Adult poncho ---PAGE BREAK--- APPENDIX PAGE E-9 REGION 5 ALL HAZARD MITIGATION PLAN – 2015-2020 EDITION CITY OF PUYALLUP ADDENDUM Toilet paper Tarp Rope Medications Water and non-perishable food Cell phone charger Change of clothes Map Games and Toys Residents can also sign up for Pierce County ALERT, which is a free service that sends emergency alerts that may affect neighborhoods, workplaces and schools through text messages or emails. Residents can sign up at piercecountywa.gov. The updated Hazard Mitigation Plan will be presented to the State and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and will be completed next year.

The Public forums were advertised by the City through a variety of media, including the local newspaper, at public posting locations and a posting on the City’s website. After complete approval from all concerned parties including FEMA and the City’s Council, this plan shall be posted on the City’s website with the opportunity for public comment and suggestions for consideration for our next updated plan. Our Emergency Management Department Plan will be to continue to educate the Public through many ways that has already been outline above. One additional way would be to include education in our outreach program including our annual Emergency Preparedness fair outlining our Hazards and how to be better prepared in our community. We also would encourage community involvement by advertising with Public Notices our meetings, education on mitigation information through our Business Association, Chamber of Commerce, and senior citizens programs. As we approach the next planning session or updates or major changes to the Hazard Mitigation Plan we would ask for public involvement from the community and advertise on our the City of Puyallup website under the of Emergency Management Web site. In addition upcoming events such as public meetings or forum’s for the community, preparedness events the forum is another way to express their concerns, opinions, or ideas about the Hazard Mitigation Plan.

This will limit the potential damage to infrastructure as well as the damage that infrastructure could cause to life and property. Events like the windstorm of February 2006 and December 2006 where power lines were down all over the County show the viability of this measure. Where this is not economically feasible for the utility provider, homeowners could have the option to have their utilities placed underground through an individualized rate structure.3 1.

The levee system on the lower Puyallup River has been deemed inadequate by the United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) resulting in their decertification and subsequent changes to FEMA’s flood plain maps. This results in new flood plain designations and restrictions along the Puyallup River. The County believes there is regional consensus on the need to improve the flood protection system to bring it back to its previous level of protectiveness. The County has historically been responsible for maintaining the levee system along the Puyallup River. Recent flood events in November 2006, November 2008, and January 2009, provide a further impetus to move this long-term project on for the greater sustainability of the County. 1.

Life of Measure = Perpetual 8. Community Reaction = The proposal is likely to be endorsed by the entire community. CITY OF PUYALLUP BENEFIT COST ANALYSIS The Mitigation Plan only establishes the frame work for mitigation efforts. Mitigation efforts are put into practice through a number of other planning and control mechanisms like the City of Puyallup Comprehensive Plan, in conjunction with the Growth Management Act, The Critical Lands Ordinances, Engineering Guidelines and other adopted codes. An example of this process is as follows: The City of Puyallup Hazard Vulnerability Analysis identifies a lahar as a threat and possibility in the future. The city has adopted code requirements establishing occupancy limits where additional warning equipment will need to be installed in new construction in lahar zones. The Mitigation Plan calls for the mitigation to lessen the forecasted risk but ordinances, codes and other adopted standards makes the mitigation happen. Cost-benefit review does not apply at this time to our projects. Individual cost analysis will be conducted prior to its submission after each project application is submitted or reevaluated during a mitigation request. As we are approved for projects, each will be scheduled for a cost- benefit view and analysis for each and then only project by project. The priority of the benefit out weights the costs over all of the proposed mitigation actions proposed. The EMAT (Emergency Management Action Team) prioritized all posed mitigation measures to achieve the greatest cooperative efforts and savings. ---PAGE BREAK--- APPENDIX PAGE F-5 REGION 5 ALL HAZARD MITIGATION PLAN – 2015-2020 EDITION CITY OF PUYALLUP ADDENDUM Status Update: 2015 – 2020 Edition Complete Ongoing Partially Complete Deferred or Removed from Plan Removed from Plan Comments Although this mitigation measure was well intended and placed under the HMF category, the Hazard Mitigation Forum does not have a jurisdictional authority to pursue mitigation actions.

The Pierce County Council authorized Ordinance 2011-95s which created the Pierce County Flood Control Zone District (FCZD) to address flood and stormwater control needs throughout Pierce County. The FCZD is a special purpose district governed by a Board of Supervisors and an Executive Committee. They receive input and recommendations from an Advisory Committee (Ordinance No. 2012-24, Exhibit A, Section 11.06.030). Pierce County’s Department of Planning & Public Works carries out the district’s approved projects and programs. The Advisory Committee is made up of 15 members to make recommendations on various budget and policy issues and project priorities. They meet approximately once a month for briefings, discussions and crafting recommendations for the Flood Control Zone District. This 15 membership committee is configured with wide representation from the cities of Tacoma, Sumner, Puyallup, Fife and Orting. It also includes the Port of Tacoma, water resource inventory areas (WRIA) 10, 11, 12 and 15, the Puyallup Tribe, unincorporated Pierce County, the business sector and the County Executive. An Annual Work Plan is posted on their website. Origin Previous Plan Current Plan  Fire District Annexations Hazards: All Priority HMF-4 The City will continue to encourage rural residents to annex to local fire districts. This will transfer fire response capabilities to local control and increase funds available for firefighting services at the local level. In some areas residents have not annexed to their local fire districts and instead are served by the Department of Natural Resources. Washington State law provides that annexations may occur by petition when the owners of 60% of the assessed valuation of the annexation area submit a petition that is subsequently approved by the Board of Fire Commissioners. ---PAGE BREAK--- APPENDIX PAGE F-6 REGION 5 ALL HAZARD MITIGATION PLAN – 2015-2020 EDITION CITY OF PUYALLUP ADDENDUM 1.

Status Update: 2015 – 2020 Edition Complete Ongoing Partially Complete Deferred or Removed from Plan Removed from Plan Comments This was a five-year pilot program authorized in 1999 by Congress for Fiscal Years 2000 through 2004,which allowed SBA to make low interest or less) fixed rate loans not to exceed $50,000 per year to small businesses for the purpose of implementing mitigation measures to protect their property from disaster-related damage. The program was developed in support of “Project Impact” a mitigation program established by FEMA with emphasis on prevention rather than a response and recovery approach to emergency management. This program is no longer in existence but there are other Business of Continuity Programs the City of Puyallup can look into.

These maps and related hazard information provide new best available science for the tsunami threat facing the City. The strongest mitigation capability the City has resides in land use codes and building codes. There may be a potential link to existing flood hazard regulations and opportunity to provide guidance on how to build in these potential inundation areas. Research from Washington State Coastal Communities best practices and from Countries in the Indian Ocean may provide guidance in exploring these regulations. 1.

Origin Previous Plan Current Plan  ---PAGE BREAK--- APPENDIX PAGE F-14 REGION 5 ALL HAZARD MITIGATION PLAN – 2015-2020 EDITION CITY OF PUYALLUP ADDENDUM Endnotes 1 Hazard Codes: Where necessary, the specific hazards addressed are noted as follows: A: Avalanche AM Abandoned Mines CC Civil Disturbance DF Dam Failure D Drought EQ Earthquake F Flood EE Energy Emergency E Epidemic HM Hazardous Material PH Pipeline Hazard T Terrorism TA Transportation Accidents TS Tsunami V(l or Volcanic (lahar or tephra-specific) SW Severe Storm (wind-specific) LS Landslide WUI: Wildland/Urban Interface Fire All All hazards, including some man made. Where only natural hazards are addressed, it is noted. 2 While this Plan is strictly a Natural hazard mitigation plan, where a measure stems from a facility recommendation (Infrastructure Section) that deals specifically with terrorism, the mitigation strategy will use that analysis. Other measures, such as those that deal with multi-hazard community preparedness or recovery planning, mitigate man-made hazards and are noted as such. It is not the intent of this notation to imply that all measures were analyzed with regards to man-made hazards or that measures were identified with that in mind. Rather, the notation merely illustrates the potential on this template for the inclusion of man-made hazard analysis. 3 Pierce City Code, Title 19.80.020. http://www.co.pierce.wa.us/xml/Abtus/ourorg/council/code/title%2019a%20pcc.pdf
