This powerpoint presentation begins by providing a brief overview of the resiliency problem that consists of: rural communities and small cities that lack resiliency are susceptible to threats and catastrophic events, impacting response and recovery with potentially severe local, regional and national consequences. The Resilient Communities Initiative (RCI) is presented as: providing multi-disciplinary strategy to address the multi-sector issues faced by the small community; a focal point for small and medium sized community resiliency expertise, research and services; promoting positive emergency response and economic viability planning; creating a collaborative creative climate of academic and applied research; and, recognizing importance of socio-economic, physical, institutional-governmental systems. Part 2 presents the Corridor H Transportation Analysis and NCR Western Route Evacuation Scenarios. Part 3 presents the Community Outreach and Technical Assistance Program (COTAP), and Part 4 presents the Action Plan for Continuous Improvement.
