Lassen County, the City of Susanville, and the Susanville Indian Rancheria are working cooperatively to update the Lassen County Operational Area Local Hazard Mitigation Plan (LHMP). The Lassen County Department of Planning and Building Services is responsible for coordinating this effort. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) requires that LHMPs be updated every five (5) years, and the current LHMP expired on January 15, 2024.
The primary purpose of a LHMP is to identify community policies, actions, and tools for implementation over the short and long-term that will result in a reduction in risk and potential future losses community wide. This is accomplished by using a systematic process of learning about the hazards that can affect each of the participating jurisdictions, setting clear goals and objectives, identifying and implementing appropriate actions, and keeping the plan current.
The following survey is being administered to solicit public input as the LHMP is being updated. Your participation in the survey is appreciated.
