Description

P. Michael Laub (au). Experience at the Federal, State, & local levels during natural disasters, along with a growing body of research, has demonstrated that the losses from such events, in terms of life, property, & community resources, can be substantially reduced when mitigation techniques & technologies are applied. This report illustrates the comparative benefits & costs associated with the implementation of a variety of mitigation measures by governments & private sector entities. It identifies, through a series of case studies, the mitigation tools used to achieve cost-effective hazard mitigation benefits.
