i) EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The City of Saratoga Springs (the City) has a population of more than 30,000, according to the City’s 2016/2017 budget plan. The City is one of the fastest growing municipalities in the greater Salt Lake City area (also known as the Wasatch Front). Land development in the City has taken the form of large “master planned” communities, with progressive land-use and zoning practices. The City anticipates a population of over 120,000 upon final build-out.

The City has chosen to take a proactive approach to the management of the effects of natural hazards. As one of these proactive measures, the City cooperated in the development of the Mountainlands Association of Governments (MAG) plan, which was previously approved by FEMA in 2011. The City also participated in the current update to the MAG plan, which is scheduled to be approved by FEMA in mid to late 2017.

The MAG plan (by necessity) can not address the many and varied specific needs of each participating community. The City therefore requested and received a hazard mitigation planning grant from FEMA in 2017 to develop its own pre-disaster mitigation plan. This plan has been developed to meet the requirements in Federal Law, 44 CFR. The City initially considered a broad range of natural hazards, based upon the hazard listing in the risk analysis portion of the MAG plan. As a part of the City’s outreach efforts, the City met with MAG officials and discussed which of these hazards were more likely to have an impact on the City. This was a necessary step, since risks associated with natural hazards are not uniform throughout the Wasatch Front. City specific risk analyses were performed by a consulting firm (EPIC Engineering). Upon completion of the risk analysis, the City evaluated risk reduction alternatives. This evaluation considered natural hazard risks to life safety, community interruption, and property damage. The resources which the City has to respond to natural hazard events were also considered. Based upon these evaluations, the City identified hazard mitigation alternatives. The City then developed a multiyear plan to mitigate risks that are of the highest consequence. This plan consists of potential mitigation projects to mitigate natural hazards in the following order of priority:

Wildfire Hazard Mitigation through fuel reduction and fire break construction; Debris Flow Hazard Mitigation through channel improvements and basin construction; Severe Storm Hazard Mitigation through emergency generator installation; Earthquake Ground Shaking Hazard Mitigation through nonstructural strengthening of

certain critical facilities; Earthquake Liquefaction Hazard Mitigation through retrofit measures at certain critical

low lying infrastructure facilities; Flood Hazard Mitigation through possible construction of flood control measures around

certain critical facilities. Drought Hazard Mitigation, primarily through a continuation of ongoing water

conservation programs, with possible enhancements through interagency projects.

A listing of potential mitigation projects, estimated costs, and possible grant funding sources is provided in this plan. The plan encompasses a 10 year time frame (2017 to 2026.)

1.0 INTRODUCTION The City of Saratoga Springs has prepared this multihazard mitigation plan by utilizing a four step process; as required by CFR 44. This planning process consists (prescriptively) of the following steps:

1) ORGANIZATION OF RESOURCES; 2) RISK ANALYSIS; 3) DEVELOPMENT OF A MITIGATION PLAN; and 4) IMPLEMENTATION OF THE PLAN.

As a part of plan implementation, the City intends to mitigate risks where economically feasible. The City may also undertake mitigation projects as a component of future facility improvement or expansion projects. This approach will result in significant risk reduction and improve the City’s ability to serve its constituents. Throughout the implementation phase, the City will coordinate mitigation activities in a manner which is consistent with goals and objectives of the Utah State Mitigation plan, as well as the Mountain lands Association of Governments (MAG) Plan. An overview of findings and mitigation actions identified in this planned process are briefly summarized below. The location of the City is shown in Figure 1.1 and Figure 1.2. The proximity of the City’s facilities to natural hazard areas or zones is shown in the Risk Analysis portion of this plan (Section 2.0).

1.1 Organization of Resources The City has organized and conducted meetings with stakeholders, regional risk planners, the State of Utah DEM emergency planners, FEMA, and local emergency planning groups as a part of preparation of this mitigation plan. The plan was prepared through collaborative efforts with these groups and with input on mitigation needs from the City’s department heads.

1.2 Risk Analysis The risk analysis included hazard identification, and hazard quantification. Probabilistic hazard definitions and quantification methodologies were used. The risk analysis began with consideration of all hazards listed in Mountainlands Association of Governments (MAG) Plan. Upon review of the MAG plan, and discussion of which hazards in the plan were more pertinent to the City, it was determined that the following hazards would be addressed in the City of Saratoga Springs Multihazard Mitigation Plan:

Wildfire Debris Flow Severe Weather Earthquake Flooding Drought

Other hazards identified in the MAG plan were also considered, but found to pose relatively low risks to the City, in comparison to the hazards listed above.

1.0 INTRODUCTION 1.3 Mitigation Plan

Risk evaluation results led to the identification of potential natural hazard mitigation projects. These projects are listed in Section 4.0 of the City of Saratoga Springs Multihazard Mitigation Plan. The City proposes to complete these projects over a multiyear period of time.

1.4 Implementation

As recommended in the “Local Multihazard Mitigation Planning Guidance” document published by FEMA, The City formally adopts the mitigation plan after receiving approval of the draft final plan from the State of Utah and FEMA.

The Mitigation Plan will be updated every five years, as required by 44 CFR. Official plan revisions will be prepared and submitted to FEMA, as required by 44 CFR.

2.0 ORGANIZATION OF RESOURCES

The City has developed a multihazard mitigation plan in a manner which conforms to mitigation planning regulations under 44 CFR Part 201. The steps included in this process are described in Sections 2.1 through 2.7, below. The City sought and received input from numerous organizations in this planning process.

2.1 Identification of and Coordination with Representatives from the City's Operating Groups

The City has obtained input to the plan from management personal within the City’s emergency response, administration, public works, and engineering departments.

2.2 Identification of, Contact and Coordination with Emergency Services Personnel as Project Participants This task included outreach to emergency service groups, such as firefighting organizations and police.

2.3 Identification of, Contact and Coordination with Representatives of the MAG The Mountainlands Association of Governments (MAG), completed regional mitigation plans in 2011, and has its 2017 update under review by FEMA (as of the date of the City’s plan). The MAG plan encompasses the area served by City, as well as many other communities. The City reviewed the MAG plan and included several overall regional mitigation goals (from the MAG plan) into the City’s plan. The City anticipates adopting the MAG plan upon approval by FEMA. 2.4 Identification of, Contact and Coordination with Representatives of Communities Served by the City The City conducted four meetings to obtain input into its plan. These meetings are documented in Attachment A.

2.5 Meetings with Federal Agencies with Interest in the City’s Hazard Mitigation Planning Process The City’s grant writer met with a FEMA representative during BCA training at the Utah Capital. This meeting focused on discussion of possible near term FEMA grant submittals.

2.6 Meetings with State of Utah Emergency Management Personnel The City coordinated the risk analysis and mitigation planning progress through a regular dialog with the State of Utah Department of Emergency Management personnel. State of Utah personnel also attended public meetings.

8 of 142

2.0 ORGANIZATION OF RESOURCES 2.7 Public Meetings Public involvement in the planning process included multiple outreach efforts to other agencies and the public. The City conducted four formal outreach efforts. These included:

• Meeting with a MAG representative on January 25, 2017; • Meeting with State of Utah and FEMA representatives on March 9, 2017; • Conducting a technical outreach meeting with multiple agencies on March 14, 2017; and • Conducting an outdoor general public outreach meeting on March 20, 2017.

Records of these meetings are provided in Attachment A.

3.0 RISK ANALYSIS

3.1 Methodology

The City’s facilities are all located in relatively close proximity to each other; however, the natural hazards posed to each facility vary. This is due to variations in a number of parameters, including: proximity to hillside drainage areas, proximity to undeveloped areas with high fire hazards, variations in geology, variations in proximity to low lying areas, variation in soil types, variations in ground water elevations, and other parameters. On the other hand, some hazards do not vary substantially within the boundaries of the City. These hazards included ground acceleration levels due to seismic events, risks posed by extreme storm events (snow, wind, lightening) and drought.

3.1.1 Identification and Quantification of Hazards

3.1.1.1 Review mitigation effects on system risk reduction resulting from currently planned capital improvement projects.

The process for allocation of City funds to a project is through the budget process, which is adopted each year by the City Council. The identification of these funds is in the CIP, which is then incorporated in the budget process.

3.1.1.2 Review and incorporate MAG plan information

The MAG plan addresses risk and hazard mitigation for the City’s metropolitan area, as well as many other communities along the south portion of the Wasatch Front. As such, general regional risk assessment information and mitigation actions, which generally pertain to the City, are included in the MAG plan. Also, general hazard quantification and mitigation goals were developed in the MAG plan. Findings from the City’s hazard risk assessment process narrowed the hazards of concern to those most relevant to the City. A correlation of risk assessment findings in the MAG plan and risk assessment findings in the City’s plan is provided in Attachment D. 3.1.1.3 Review and incorporate State of Utah plan information.

The State of Utah plan was reviewed by the City and information was incorporated into the City’s plan, as appropriate. A correlation of risk assessment findings in the State of Utah plan and risk assessment findings in the City’s plan is provided in Attachment E.

3.1.1.4 Review and incorporate risk information from communities served

The City has reviewed natural hazards for each community served as a component of regional risk assessments.

3.1.1.5 Review and incorporate, FEMA Flood Hazard Maps, Fire Hazard Maps, USGS seismic hazard maps, and other published data.

One of the major efforts of the City’s risk assessment process was to develop City specific natural hazard maps. These maps allowed for visual and numerical assessment of the affects of each hazard considered. These maps are provided in Figures 3.1 to 3.33.

3.0 RISK ANALYSIS 3.2 Hazard Analysis

3.2.1 Identification of Primary Hazards of Concern Based on Regional Hazard Studies

The City’s facilities, as well as residences and businesses within the City, are exposed to many of the natural hazards listed in the MAG and the State plan. An important component of the City’s plan was to identify the hazards which pose significant risks to either essential facility components (or groups of facility components), which could then lead to consequences that did not meet operational /recovery priorities. These operational/recovery priorities were identified during project planning meetings, and are listed below:

1) Provide Life Safety Protection to City Residents and General Public that may be present in the community; 2) Mitigate Loss Property and Operational Disruptions, to the Extent that is economically feasible; and 3) Augment the City’s Disaster Response Preparedness.

The hazard assessment has thus been done in a manner which identifies and quantifies hazards which can pose the greatest threat (risk) to successful achievement of these objectives.

3.2.2 Quantification of Hazards with the Highest Potential Impact on City Facilities

Controlling hazards were found to be: Wildfire, Debris Flow, Extreme Weather (as it relates to power outage), Earthquake Hazards, Flooding, and Drought. Methods used to quantify these hazards for use in risk analysis are given in Section 3.3. Additional assistance was provided by other government officials during public forum and other project meetings. These same government officials were included in the mitigation planning portion of the project.

3.0 RISK ANALYSIS 3.3 Hazard Analysis by Hazard Type

3.3.1 Wildfire

The City assessed risks due to wildfire by reviewing historical wildfire records in the vicinity of the City. There have been 12 wildfires on Lake Mountain just west of Saratoga Springs since 1999. The fires historically have occurred on Bureau of Land Management (BLM) property, which is immediately adjacent to the City on the entire west boundary, and portions of the Northern and southern boundaries. The City assessed hazards posed by wildfires to residences, businesses and infrastructure. A lesser wildfire hazards occurs within some undeveloped areas of the City and in areas on the eastern boundary (adjacent to undeveloped low land areas near Utah Lake). The City conducted additional wildfire risk assessments, beyond those done during the most recent MAG plan update. These assessments resulted in new wildfire hazard maps that shown reduced wildfire hazards within city boundaries, due to installation of infrastructure and pressurized water lines and fire hydrants. Concerning wildfires that affect the boundaries of the city, several practical risk mitigation alternatives are available to mitigate wildfire hazards, including fuel reduction and construction of fire breaks. Wildfire hazard maps are shown in Figures 3.26 to 3.33. 3.3.2 Debris Flow

Debris flows result from rapid storm water runoff thought steep natural channels and valleys, such as those in the mountains on the West side of the City. Debris flows are made more severe when a wildfire has recently occurred in affected areas. Due to removed vegetation and scarring on mountain or hillside slopes, there is potential flooding as well as debris flow. Improvements to natural channels are used to direct flooding away from homes, businesses and infrastructure. Debris basins are needed to further protect and keep debris flows away from developed areas. The City has experienced damage from debris flows as recently as 2012. Following this event, the City constructed a debris flow channel and basin to protect the portion of the City that was damaged in 2012.

As a part of development of this hazard mitigation plan, the City conducted a risk analysis of potential debris flow hazards originating in canyons on the west side of the city. This evaluation identified areas for which future debris flows may occur, as shown in Figures 3.7 to 3.9. The City evaluated these potential debris flow areas and determined that the highest risk is posed by debris flows in the Loose Canyon drainage, which could directly affect approximately 150 residential properties, 10 commercial properties, one major North/South traffic corridor, and numerous city streets and utilities in the City of Saratoga Springs. The City proposes to mitigate hazards posed in the Loose Canyon zone by constructing channel improvements and by installing debris basins, as described further in Attachment C. The City may also elect to mitigate potential debris flow hazards in other areas (shown in Figures 3.7 to 3.9 in future projects.

3.0 RISK ANALYSIS 3.3.3 Severe Weather

Hazards related to severe weather that could most significantly affect the city include winter storm, high wind events, and lightening. Tornados are rare in Utah and therefore do not pose a high likelihood hazard, in comparison to other sources of high wind.

Large snow events do historically occur, however the City and the State of Utah Department of Transportation have a well organized snow removal plan, with sufficient equipment to respond to major snow events.

A significant weather hazard posed to the City is high wind, which may occur any time of the year. High wind events have resulted in regional power losses. Lesser risks to city infrastructure include wind damage to buildings and interruption to transportation routes due to debris in traffic lanes.

3.3.4 Earthquake

Most of the City’s facilities and business and residential communities are located in regions which are moderate to high earthquake hazard areas. These areas can be affected by ground shaking, transient wave propagation, and liquefaction induced lateral spreading and permanent ground displacement. The potential for each of these earthquake hazards to result in damage to City’s facilities has been assessed.

Ground Shaking Ground shaking levels have been determined using USGS data at each site location. Ground shaking levels for two events have been determined: 1) An event with a 10% probability of exceedance in 50 years, and 2) An event with a 2% probability of exceedance in 50 years. Significant City owned buildings have been designed using modern versions of the building code. Risk assessments conducted as a part of preparation of this plan did not identify any significant structural seismic retrofit needs for City owned buildings. However, nonstructural seismic hazards were identified. An overview of these nonstructural seismic hazards is provided in Attachment C. Ground shaking levels are shown in Figures 3.1, 3.2, 3.21-3.23. Ground Displacement Effects Surface faulting locations of active (Holocene age) and historically active (Pleistocene age) ground were investigated and found to not be a significant direct hazard to City facilities, since no facilities are located within know fault rupture zones. Maps of fault zones along the Wasatch Range are included in Figures 3.16 and 3.17. Liquefaction and Lateral Spreading Overall regional liquefaction information has been evaluated. With the exception of low lying areas near the Jordon River and along the Utah Lake shore, liquefaction risks are low. However, the City does have a portion of its infrastructure in the high liquefaction risk areas, including certain water wells and sewer lift stations. Liquefaction hazards areas are shown in Figures 3.3, 3.4, 3.24, and 3.25. These figures also illustrate where City owed infrastructure is with respect to high liquefaction hazard areas.

14 of 142

3.0 RISK ANALYSIS 3.3.5 Flooding

Flood hazards exist in certain low lying areas in the northern portion of the City, near the Jordan River. Risk analyses indicate that low lying utilities, such a sewer lift stations and wells may experience damage and loss of use should flooding occur at the location of these facilities. Flood hazard maps are shown in Figures 3.14 and 3.15.

3.3.6 Natural Hazard Induced Explosion

The City of Saratoga Springs has a number of explosives manufacturing and storage facilities within its boundaries. These facilities are vulnerable natural hazards, including seismic events, wildfire events, and extreme weather (lightening). These facilities are privately owned, therefore the City’s ability to impose natural hazard risk management measures are mostly limited to code enforcement measures.

3.3.7 Drought

Drought is a natural hazard in many parts of the western United States, including Utah. Fortunately, the City of Saratoga Springs has proactively developed and implemented a successful water conservations program. Continuation of this program as the City continues to grow is the most effective drought management strategy. Other drought management efforts could possibly include working with other entities to either pipe or line open secondary water canals. This is however complex from a facility and water rights ownership perspective.

3.3.8 Other Natural Hazards

Other hazards of potential concern for the City are identified and described in the MAG plan. These hazards included: avalanche, rockslides, land sliding, and other natural hazards, which are relevant to other facilities in the MAG study area, but were not found to pose any significant risks to the City’s facilities. Landslide maps are provided in Figures 3.18 and 3.19. 3.4 Summary of Risk Analysis Results

Table 3.1 provides a summary structural risk analysis results for all considered hazards. Risk analysis information is provided separately for each hazard considered.

4.0 MITIGATION PLAN 4.1 Mitigation Plan Summary The risk assessment for the City’s Multihazard Mitigation Plan has resulted in the identification of areas in the City’s facilities and the community served which are vulnerable to damage due to natural disasters. The City has prepared a mitigation plan to implement the highest benefit natural hazard mitigation projects. Potential mitigation projects are shown in Table 4.1.

4.2 Methodology for Development of Mitigation Plan

The City has developed potential mitigation actions for facilities which currently may not meet post disaster performance objectives. These performance objectives were determined on a hazard specific basis. Performance objectives were therefore based on life safety protection, continuity of facility use objectives, and input obtained from community outreach meetings. Strategies for hazard mitigation for each considered hazard type are provided in Sections 4.2.1 to 4.2.7.

4.2.1 Wildfire Hazard Mitigation

The City has taken a number of steps to mitigate wildfire hazards thus far. This includes adopting and implementing the State Urban Wildfire Plan. The City is considering plans to implement further wildfire hazard mitigation in the flowing ways: 1) Conduct fuel reduction projects on undeveloped lands adjacent to City boundaries, where such lands pose a wildfire hazard to the City. This will be done cooperatively with the BLM, DNR, and private land owners. 2) Construct fire breaks along or near certain boundaries of the City. This may be done in cooperation with trail development projects, 3) Reduce fuels on undeveloped lands that are in close proximity to City owned infrastructure, such as wells and pump stations. 4) Conduct public education programs, in cooperation with other agencies, such as BLM and DNR to promote fire safe practices on public lands.

4.2.2 Debris Flow Hazard Mitigation

Mitigation of debris flow hazards has been identified as a high priority based on risk assessments described in Section 3.0. One canyon (or drainage area) which recently caused significant damage in the City has been mitigated by installation of channel improvements and basins. The City plans to implement the following additional debris flow hazard mitigation measures: 1) Construct channel improvements and a debris flow basin(s) for the Loose Canyon Drainage; 2) Perform a detailed hazard assessment of other potential debris flow areas; 3) Implement other debris flow hazard mitigation projects, if warranted by 2); and 4) Consider further zoning restrictions as an alternative to 3), where practical.

4.2.3 Extreme Weather Hazard Mitigation

The City currently manages extreme weather as a component of its normal operations. In the case of transportation infrastructure: extreme snow storms, and to a lesser degree flooding have historically resulted in traffic delays. From an overall infrastructure perspective, one of the hazards posed by extreme weather has been loss of electrical power. To mitigate this concern, the City is considering purchasing and installing additional emergency generators. These generators would be serve critical facilities.

51 of 142

4.0 MITIGATION PLAN 4.2.4 Seismic Hazard Mitigation

As stated in the risk assessment portion of this plan, most of the City’s buildings are fairly new (less than 20 years old). Therefore, seismic shaking hazards are relatively low for existing buildings. A visual review of representative City owned buildings did however identify some nonstructural seismic risks that are being considered for mitigation.

Earthquake induced ground settlement and liquefaction may pose risks to facilities located in liquefiable zones. Liquefaction could lead to increase damage levels in buried piping and possibly damage (due to floatation) buried utility vaults. Mitigation for these conditions could include installation of gravel drains at buried vaults, use of flexible piping (such as HDPE piping). Other entities in the western US have also used SCADA upgrades (in some cases in conjunction with earthquake actuated shut off values) to manage water loss until piping repairs can be made after a seismic event. The City is considering the possible application of some of these technologies. 4.2.5 Drought Hazard Mitigation

The water for this system comes from three irrigation grade water wells, the Utah Lake Distributing Canal, and the Spring Creek Canal. The City has an active water conservation program, which includes:

The City has Secondary Water Metering and a Tiered Rate Structure. Coordination of Water Savings Projects Occurs with Local and Regional Water

Management Entities, including: - CUWCD - Local Canal Companies The City may consider submitting grants requests to the US Bureau of Reclamation for future conservation efforts.

4.2.6 Flood Hazard Mitigation

Flood hazards have been mapped by FEMA as a part of the Flood Insurance Risk Management (FIRM) program. This program effectively mitigates many flood hazards by restricting, or requiring flood insurance in mapped flood hazard areas. The MAG plan also provides additional local flood hazard data. One of the most effective hazard mitigation tools for management of flood hazards are the (already in place) zoning and development restrictions in flood hazard risk areas within the City.

However, some facilities by necessity are located in flood hazard areas. In the case of the City, these include certain water wells and many of the City’s sewer lift stations. These facilities are located in low lying areas for hydraulic and other technical reasons. Other facilities, such as transportation infrastructure may be located in low lying areas, or in higher elevation areas in the path of natural drainages. T he City will consider flood hazard mitigation activities for these facilities, which may include:

Installations of berms around low lying sewer lift stations or well pump houses. Construction of additional drainage culverts under transportation infrastructure. Debris flow management, as discussed under the Debris flow mitigation section of this

plan.

52 of 142

4.0 MITIGATION PLAN 4.3 Implementation of the Plan The City intends to implement this mitigation plan in the timeframe shown in Table 4.1. The City will update the plan as projects are implemented, and as long term capital improvement plans are developed by the City. The City will keep a current amended plan on file and submit this plan to FEMA, as required during preparation and submittal of future PDM or HMGP grant requests.

The primary responsible party for implementation actions shall be the City’s Fire Chief (currently Mr. Jess Campbell). This same individual will keep the City’s management personnel up to date regarding plan implementation progress.

The City will inform the State of Utah Division of Emergency Management of plan implementation status. This communication will be sent to the manager of this Division (currently Mr. Brad Bartholomew). 4.3.1 Coordination of Hazard Mitigation Projects With Other Capital Improvement Projects

Culinary Water Improvement Projects The culinary water improvement projects can be coordinated and incorporated into the multi-hazard mitigation plan in the following ways:

As new culinary water storage tanks, pump stations, and well houses are built, the designs may integrate further seismic, fire, and flood protection into the buildings and equipment.

As new sources are developed, more stringent source protection plans can be integrated to protect against specific hazards identified in the multi-hazard mitigation plan for the specific source locations.

As new transmission lines are designed and constructed (in high hazard areas) mitigation measures may be incorporated into the design. An example would be transmission lines that will be servicing areas (that have been identify as high risk for wildfire) could have additional fire protection and flow capacity, and fire hydrants placed more frequently than in low hazard areas.

Secondary Water Improvements The secondary water improvement projects can be coordinated and incorporated into the multi-hazard mitigation plan in the following ways:

System improvements near undeveloped areas of the town and near areas identified as high risk for wildfire can have fire protection uses designed into the system, such as the utilization of green strips and defensible space.

Open channel ditches can be sized for flood control in high hazard flood areas.

53 of 142

4.0 MITIGATION PLAN

Sewer System Improvements The sewer system improvement projects can be coordinated and incorporated into the multi-hazard mitigation plan in the following ways:

As lift stations, pump stations, and wastewater treatment plants are improved, additional seismic, fire, and flood protections may be integrated to help protect against unforeseen natural disasters.

As waste water systems are inspected and repairs are made in high risk areas, such as areas identified to have the potential for liquefaction, seismic protection factors may be incorporated as identified by the plan.

Storm Drain Improvements The storm drain improvement projects can be coordinated and incorporated into the multi-hazard mitigation plan in the following ways:

Culverts in areas that are identified as debris flow basins can be sized appropriately to pass debris without clogging, or have protections placed on them to prevent damage from debris flow.

Open channel storm drain channels can be sized to help channel flood flows in areas identified as high hazard for floods.

Transportation Improvement Projects The transportation improvement projects can be coordinated and incorporated into the multi-hazard mitigation plan in the following ways:

Culverts in areas that are identified as debris flow basins can be sized appropriately to pass debris without clogging, or have protections placed on them to prevent damage from debris flow.

Roads in areas identified as high hazard for wildfire can be designed and laid out as fire breaks.

4.3.2 Annual Evaluation of Plan Implementation Progress.

The City will conduct an annual evaluation of plan implementation progress. The update will consist of a memo stating actual plan progress as it compares to goals in Table 4.1. Updates will also be added if facilities listed in the current plan undergo changes, such as renovations, or additions.

4.3.3 Formal 5-Year Plan Updates

The City will prepare a formal plan update every five years for submittal to the State of Utah and FEMA. 4.3.4 Outreach Plan for Communication of Plan Progress to Stakeholders and the Public

Over the course of the timeframe given in Table 4.1, the City will continue outreach efforts in a manner consistent with those used in the development of this plan.

4.0 MITIGATION PLAN

(Section 4.4 Added To Plan On August 30, 2017, No Other Changes Made.)

4.4 Inclusion of FEMA Plan Recommendations

The City participated in the current MAG plan and has formally adopted the MAG plan. As such,

the City intends to participate in hazard mitigation actions listed in the MAG plan as appropriate.

Further, the authorities, policies and programs listed in the MAG plan are in included in the

City’s plan also, by virtue of adoption of the MAG plan. The purpose of the City’s plan is to

provide more City specific information and hazard mitigation planning measures. At FEMA’s

request (based on FEMA Comments dated August 17, 2017), the following additional

information has been added to the draft plan dated March 31, 2017:

4.4.1 Documentation of each jurisdiction existing authorities, policies, programs and resources

and its ability to expand on and improve these existing policies and programs (Requirement

§201.6(c)(3)) Addresses FEMA Comment C1.

General: The City has adopted the existing authorities, policies, programs and resources in the

current MAG plan. The City’s Hazard Mitigation Plan therefore includes these provisions in its

plan by reference. Additional narrative specific to the City of Saratoga Springs, related to

authorizes, policies, programs and resources is provided in Sections 4.4.1.1, 4.4.1.2 and 4.4.1.3.

4.4.1.1 Existing Authorities and Capabilities

a) City Level Authorities and Responsibilities

As stated in the MAG Plan: “The Association of Governments (MAG in this case) has been duly

constituted under the authority of Title XI, Chapter13, Utah Code Annotated, 1953, as amended

(The Inter-local Cooperation Act) and pursuant to Section 3 of the Executive Order of the

Governor of the State of Utah, dated May 27, 1970, with the authority to conduct planning

studies and to provide services to its constituent jurisdictions. Utah Code, Title 17, Chapter 27 is

the County Land Use Development and Management Act that grants authority to counties. Utah

Code, Title 10 Chapter 9, grants authority to municipalities”.

The City has further defined responsibilities and authorities of each department within the City.

The City has existing full time professional management and technical staff. These personnel

are fully capable of managing the implementation of the hazard mitigation plan. These

responsibilities and authorizes are as follows: City Administrative and Management Personnel:

Includes a full time city manager and support staff. Fire & EMS: Includes a full time fire chief

and multiple full time personnel and substantial EMS equipment at multiple locations. The City’s

fire chief has primary responsibility for supervision of implementation of hazard reduction

projects described in the City’s hazard mitigation plan. Fire and EMS staff sizes vary, but will

John
Typewritten Text
56a

increase as/if necessary, as the population of the city continues to increase, and thus are not

specifically listed in this plan. Public Works: includes several full time professional engineers,

operations personnel, maintenance personnel and support staff. The City also has its own

equipment and supplies needed for ongoing maintenance and operation of city owned utilities.

Building Inspectors: includes inspectors across required disciplines. Engineering: includes a full

time chief engineer, several staff engineers and GIS personnel.

b) State Level Authorities and Capabilities

As listed in the MAG plan: “The State of Utah derives its authority under the Emergency

Management Act of 1981 (Utah Code 53-2, 63-5) as well as the Governor’s Emergency

Operations Directive and Executive Order of the Governor 11”. State level capabilities are listed

in the MAG plan. As such, these capabilities are not repeated in the City’s plan. The City’s

ability to take advantage of State capabilities will be augmented by virtue of implementing

mitigation actions identified in the City’s plan. The City worked with the State in developing

this plan, which lists City specific mitigation actions (rather than general mitigation actions). The

City will work with State level agencies listed in the MAG plan, as appropriate. These agencies

include: the Utah Division of Emergency Management (as related to pursuit of funding for

mitigation projects), the Utah Division of Forestry, Fire and State Lands (as related to fire hazard

risk reduction), the Division of Natural Resources (as related to fire and flood mitigation), the

Utah Geological Survey (as related to geological hazards assessments).

c) Federal Level Authorities and Capabilities

Federal level authorities and capabilities are listed in the MAG. As such, these capabilities are

not repeated in the City’s plan. The City’s ability to take advantage of Federal capabilities will

be augmented by virtue of implementing mitigation actions identified in the City’s plan. The

City has developed mitigation actions which meet the City’s mitigation goals, while also being

aligned with Federal assistance programs (including PDM and HMGP, FP&S, and others listed

in the adopted MAG plan.) The City intends to cooperate with Federal agencies, including

FEMA, USCOE, BLM and others as needed. The City intends to pursue hazard mitigation grants

available by virtue of the Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000, which defines mitigation planning

requirements for state, local, and tribal governments.

4.4.1.2 Existing Policies (and potential improvements based on implementation of the hazard

mitigation plan)

The City’s policies, as related to hazard mitigation of buildings, currently require the use of

nationally accepted building codes (IBC-2015). Further, the City has adopted a formal flood

management policy, as described in Section 4.4.2. The city has adopted other standards for

construction of or review of public works projects, including those listed in the MAG plan as

appropriate.

4.4.1.3 Existing Programs (and potential improvements based on implementation of the hazard

mitigation plan)

The City has ongoing programs to mitigate natural hazards. These programs include fire

management programs, storm water management plans, water and wastewater system

improvements, and enforcement of building codes. These and other programs are described in

detail on the City’s website and are available in on-line master plans, and are briefly

summarized in Section 4.3. The City intends to implement hazard mitigation actions, as

previously described in Sections 4.1 to 4.3.

4.4.1.4 Existing Resources (and potential improvements based on implementation of the hazard

mitigation plan)

The City currently has robust administrative, fire and EMS, public works, engineering, and code

enforcement capabilities. These personnel resources will be used to manage implementation the

City’s hazard mitigation plan. The City is likely to retain consultants and construction companies

to design and construct certain hazard mitigation projects. The process of implementing the plan

will increase awareness of natural hazard methods and procedures across all departments in the

City. The educational effects and experience gained through plan implementation will be

beneficial and City personnel as they design future projects and review future projects proposed

by developers and others.

The City will proactively utilize other resources available to assist the City in its hazard

mitigation objectives, as outlined in its plan. Local resources (in addition to City resources)

include: Utah County and other MAG Participant Communities (See MAG plan for more

specific information.) State level resources include: State DEM, DNR, and others as listed in the

MAG plan. Federal resources include: FEMA, USCOE, BLM, and others as listed in the MAG

plan.

4.4.2 Description of Saratoga Springs participation in the NFIP and continued compliance with

NFIP requirements (Requirement §201.6(c)(3)(ii)) Addresses FEMA Comment C2.

The City participates in the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). This allows us to stay

current with federal programs and technical assistance and helps obtain reduced insurance rates

for all residents who purchase flood insurance. The City has taken the following steps as a part of

adoption of the NFIP (taken directly from the City’s published publically available information):

“The City recently completed a storm drainage study of the entire geographic area of the City.

This study indicates areas more susceptible to flood damage and makes recommendations

concerning the correct locations of detention ponds, storm channels and culvert facilities. The

City will be installing these improvements over the next 10 years, as needed, to accommodate

growth in existing and future neighborhoods. The City has also had the practice of trying to raise

John
Typewritten Text
56c

awareness of issues like flooding so that you can take whatever steps you need to ensure

maximum protection.

The City has already made or required developers to make improvements to install storm drain

ponds, underground drain systems, and open storm channels leading to Utah Lake. The City also

has several regional park facilities planned of over twenty (20) acres in size that will collect

storm water during large storms. These facilities are all designed to divert and collect water away

from residential areas.

The City also requires Floodplain Development Permits (FDPs) any time that fill or structural

improvements are proposed in the regulatory floodplain. The regulatory floodplain is that area

shown on the approved FEMA Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs). These maps are available

on the City website (see quick links) or at FEMA’s Website. More complete and detailed

information on floodplain management regulations and procedures can be found in Section

18.02 of the City Code.”

4.4.3 Goals to reduce/avoid long-term vulnerabilities to the identified hazards (Requirement

§201.6(c)(3)(i)) Addresses FEMA Comment C3.

Mitigation of vulnerabilities in the long-term will be done in the following four ways:

a) Mitigation options for currently known hazards are listed in Table 4.1. Table 4.1 provides a

summary of currently identified hazard mitigation actions over the next ten years (2017 to 2026).

This is the same table as in the MAG plan (since the City provided this table to MAG).

b) Mitigation measures may be incorporated into capital improvement plans. Hazard mitigation

is achieved over the long term by incorporation of hazard mitigation into capital improvement

projects, as previously described in Section 4.3.

c) Mitigation measures will be accomplished by participating in other mitigation regional actions

in the MAG plan (not relisted here).

d) Mitigation measures will be accomplished by incorporating mitigation actions in the State of

Utah Plan, as described in Attachment E (not relisted here).

As recommended by FEMA (in comments dated August 17, 2017) future plan updates may

incorporate master planning updates and other updated plans, such as transportation corridor and

storm water plans. Future plan updates to the City’s Plan (done every five years) may also

incorporate future MAG and State of Utah Plan updates, as appropriate.

Attachment A: Documentation of Outreach

57 of 142

A.1 Documentation of Outreach The City conducted four formal outreach efforts. These included:

• Meeting with a MAG representative on January 25, 2017 • Meeting with State of Utah and FEMA representatives on March 9, 2017 • Conducting a technical outreach meeting with multiple agencies on March 14, 2017

and • Conducting an outdoor general public outreach meeting on March 20, 2017

Records of these meetings are provided in this attachment. This attachment also includes the outreach presentation used at the March 14, 2017 meeting. The outcome of each meeting is summarized as well.

January 25, 2017

Location: Saratoga City Fire Station Attendees: Aaron Cloward (MAG) Kim Coburn (EPIC) Mike McChandles (EPIC) Jess Campbell (Saratoga Springs Fire Chief) John Masek (Saratoga Springs grant writer) Discussion Topics: 1) An overview of the draft plan was presented by Epic. 2) An overview of possible future grant opportunities was presented by VIE. 3) A discussion of coordination with future ERP updates was discussed. (The ERP update is a separate project to be done after Epic submits the HMP.) 4) Input from MAG: - Fire hazard mitigation is a high priority. -The MAG plan included debris flow mitigation costs under flood mitigation. Debris flow costs referred to in the MAG plan applied to debris flows off the Wasatch Mountains (which are not relevant to Saratoga Springs). - Flood mitigation actions have been taken by other entities since the 2010 MAG plan was written. - Liquefaction hazards pertinent to Saratoga Springs are mostly concentrated along the banks of Utah Lake and along the Jordan River. - Emergency generators are a viable mitigations option for power outage at critical facilities. See attached email also.

Hello Aaron,

I wanted to thank you for coming to our meeting earlier this week to discuss Saratoga Spring’s Mitigation HazardMitigation Plan.

Please let us know when the updated hazard mitigation plan is available.

https://mountainland.org/articles/view/Hazard%20Mitigation%20Plans

The liquefaction data is from the State (attached is the map that we had shown you earlier for easy reference). Wethought it was a little bit more robust than the data you showed by having several distinct layers.

https://gis.utah.gov/data/geoscience/

ftp://ftp.agrc.utah.gov/UtahSGID_Vector/UTM12_NAD83/GEOSCIENCE/PackagedData/_Statewide/LiquefactionAndLandslides/

We will also let you know when the next public meeting is.

Thank You!

“Sustainability is Epic”

Agreed upon action items in the meeting were: to include further information concerning debris flow and wildfire management. For now, debris flow mitigation costs are included under flood mitigation costs in the MAG plan.

Meeting at Utah State Office Building re Saratoga Springs Projects Date: March 9, 2017 Present: JPM (in a capacity of grant writer for future grants for Saratoga Springs) Brad Bartholomew (State of Utah) Eric Martineau (State of Utah) Brooke Conner (FEMA) Discussion: 1) Wildfire mitigation projects that are to be funded by FEMA should focus on fuel reduction. 2) Future debris flow mitigation projects should coordinate BCA methodology with FEMA personnel through the FEMA helpline, and this coordination should be documented in writing and then attached to grant submittals. 3) Proposed nonstructural mitigation projects appear to be eligible.

March 14, 2017

Location: Saratoga City Fire Station Attendees: See attached attendance list. Discussion Topics: 1) An overview of the draft plan was presented by Epic Engineering. 2) An overview of possible future grant opportunities was presented by VIE. 3) A discussion of coordination with future ERP updates was discussed. (The ERP update Is a separate project to be done after Epic submits the HMP.) 4) Input from the presentation by attendees; -Water system improvements should focus on SCADA, rather than necessarily installation of shut off valves. - Fire hazard mitigation is a high priority. - Nonstructural seismic hazard mitigation is likely to be low cost and very effective. - Flood mitigation of low lying facilities merits consideration. - Attention was brought to future outside public forum meeting to occur on March 20. - A draft plan will be submitted by Epic by March 27. - The city council will consider the plan in its April meeting. - The MAG plan included debris flow mitigation costs for Saratoga Springs under flood mitigation. Debris flow costs referred to in the MAG plan applied to debris flows off the Wasatch Mountains. See attached presentation dated March 14, 2017

Attachment B: Debris/Flood Flow Analysis

Attachment B: Debris/Flood Flow Analysis

Debris flows have historically occurred in recent times in the direct vicinity of the proposed Background

Loose Canyon Debris Flow Mitigation Projectcanyon. Fortunately, the debris flow was not directly aligned with developed areas. Nonetheless,

. As recently as 2012, a large debris flow occurred in an adjacent

many homes were flooded, with debris accumulating in basements and first floor levels these homes (ref 1). Additionally, emergency funding, exceeding $3,000,000 dollars, was needed to construct remediation measures at an accelerated pace (Table 1).

Historical data clearly illustrates the hazards posed by debris flow events (caused by water rapid runoff in fire damaged areas) in northern Utah. Peer reviewed scholarly publications indicate that this problem is likely to become more severe, as the effects of climate change in Utah lead to a dryer more fire prone environment. This effect, combined the possibility of storms of increasing severity, further emphasizes the need to construct the proposed mitigation project in the near future. (Refs. 5,6)

Effects of Climate Change on Increased Risk of Wildfire and Debris Flow

The City of Saratoga seeks through this grant request funding to mitigate a potentially much more Proposed Mitigation and Risk Estimate Methodology

severe debris flow event in a canyon near the prior 2012 debris flow event. This canyon is known as Loose Canyon. Unlike the 2012 event, the outfall area for Loose Canyon debris and flooding is directly aligned with a densely developed residential area.

-adapt FEMA/USCOE loss estimation methods from static flood damage of residential facilities;

Losses for residential damage are estimated in Attachment D. In addition to economic losses, considering the direct alignment of the debris flow with residences, loss of life is considered a possibility. For the unmitigated condition, a thorough analysis has been done to:

-determine economic losses based on adaptation of FEMA/USCOE methodologies (Attachment B), based on flood depth and current values of affected residences (Attachment C).

It is important to note that use of the BCA 5.2.1 flood module would be an incorrect approach for loss estimation for the Loose Canyon debris flow scenario. The BCA 5.2.1 software is intended for traditional flow volume analysis is streams/rivers. Debris flow is not directly modeled by the BCA software, therefore FEMA recommends using the damage frequency assessment module. Furthermore, and very importantly, current design codes for buildings (ASCE 7-10, section 5.4.5) require impact analysis of structures in debris flow areas. Loads from debris flow are in addition to hydraulic loads due to static water flooding. This type of analysis is rarely if ever done for typical residential tract type construction. BCA 5.2.1 Software does not have algorithms to estimate losses based on ASCE 7-10 load analysis. As noted in peer reviewed scientific publications (Refs.2,3,4) estimation of debris flow volumes is not readily done with established fragility functions, such as those in the FEMA BCA 5.2.1 or HAZUS programs. Therefore, rational interpretation of data is needed, as recommended by ASCE 7-10 and FEMA. Further, while it is well known and accepted that fire damaged terrain in alluvial and fluvial deposits can flow and lead to destructive loss of life and property; fire frequency estimation is more difficult. Use of historical data is the recommended by FEMA methodology. Fortunately, there is fairly substantial data concerning fire occurrence in the Loose Canyon and foothills area near Saratoga City. These data are referred to in the attached report by CRS consultants.

Attachment D: Correlation of City of Saratoga Springs Hazard Mitigation Plan to MAG Plan

120 of 142

D.1 Correlation of City of Saratoga Springs Hazard Mitigation Plan to MAG Plan

The City actively participated in the MAG planning process. However, by necessity, the MAG plan did not include detailed information on every hazard that could affect the City, nor did it provide detailed mitigation actions. The purpose of the City’s hazard mitigation plan was to build upon the MAG plan and provide more detailed information that was specific to the City.

Table D.1 lists excerpts from MAG plan risk assessment summaries, as well as commentary on how these risk assessment and mitigation actions correlate to the City’s Hazard Mitigation Plan.

The mitigation action items common to the Saratoga Springs Plan and the MAG Plan are shown in Table D.1. As the City of Saratoga Springs developed its own hazard mitigation plan, additional actions (beyond those listed in Table D.1 were identified as follows:

� Flooding Mitigation:Flood mitigation may include two components: protection of low lying critical facilities and mitigation of debris flow hazards.

� Earthquake Hazard Mitigation:While earthquake ground shaking hazards are considered low for new above grade facilities (since most are newer buildings), other hazards exist which may be considered for mitigation. These include installation of seismic restraints for nonstructural items and liquefaction mitigation for below grade vaults in liquefaction zones.

� Wildfire Mitigation:The City has undertaken public education programs as listed in the MAG plan. The City has also indentified other potential wildfire hazard mitigation projects. These may include fuel reduction and fire break projects. Fire breaks could be potentially be combined with expansion of the City’s trail system.

� Landslide Mitigation:In the case of the City of Saratoga Springs, landslide mitigation may be combined with debris flow mitigation.

Further discussion of each of these hazard mitigation items may be found in Section 3.0 of the City’s hazard mitigation plan.

Attachment E: Correlation of City of Saratoga Springs Hazard Mitigation Plan to State of Utah Plan, Utah County

123 of 142

E.1 Correlation of City of Saratoga Springs Hazard Mitigation Plan to State of Utah Plan for Utah County

The City is included in the State of Utah Hazard Mitigation Plan. As with the MAG Plan, the State of Utah Plan also did not include detailed information on every hazard that could affect the City, nor did it provide detailed mitigation actions that were specific to the City only. The City’s hazard mitigation plan builds upon the Utah plan and provides more detailed information that isspecific to the City.

Table E.1 contains excerpts from the Utah plan risk assessment summaries, as well as commentary on how these risk assessment and mitigation actions correlate to the City’s Hazard Mitigation Plan.

The mitigation action items common to the City of Saratoga Springs Plan and the State of Utah Plan are as follows: (Listed in order shown in State plan, higher priority items only listed)

� Flood:The City’s plan is consistent with the primary action items shown in Table E.1

� Wildfire:The City’s plan is consistent with the primary action items shown in Table E.1. It is noted that the City is considering both fuel reduction, as well as fire break construction, as recommended in the State plan.

� Debris Flow: The City’s proposed debris flow mitigation projects are consistent with the State plan.

� Drought: The City has a very proactive water conservation program now, as recommendin the State plan. To the extent that interagency coordination is possible, the City may pursue additional multijurisdictional projects in this regard. (Such as canal lining or piping)

� Severe Weather: The City proposes to mitigate this hazard (in part) by installation of emergency generators at certain critical facilities, where generators are not currently present.

� Liquefaction: The State plan encourages code compliance for new buildings to mitigate this hazard. The City’s plan also proposes to study liquefaction mitigation for existing below grade structures, for certain critical facilities.

� Earthquake Shaking: The State plan proposes enforcement of seismic codes for new buildings and seismic retrofitting (structural and nonstructural) of older at risk buildings. The City has mostly new buildings. However, some level of nonstructural seismic strengthening is being considered.
