Recommendation and Review
The 2026 Central Shenandoah Hazard Mitigation Plan is the result of an ongoing regional effort to reduce the risk and impact of identified hazards within the region. The plan is meant to address hazards by clearly identifying risk, highlighting critical facilities, and outlining specific actions that can be taken by specific jurisdictions to reduce the impact to their community. FEMA formally approved the current version of the plan on May 20, 2026.
