To mitigate these risks, a comprehensive planning process has been undertaken through a collaborative partnership between public and private sector entities within Collier County. This effort has resulted in the "Collier County Multi-Jurisdictional Local Mitigation Strategy" (LMS), a strategic plan for long-term risk reduction and resilience building. The Collier County Multi-Jurisdictional Local Mitigation Strategy Working Group (LMSWG) is responsible for this planning process. The LMSWG has conducted in-depth studies to identify specific hazards affecting Collier County and assessed the risk levels posed by these hazards to the community. Using this data, the LMSWG evaluated the vulnerability of public facilities, neighborhoods, and other key assets across Collier County to these hazards. This analysis informed the development of targeted projects and programs—referred to as "mitigation initiatives"—designed to reduce the county's vulnerability and enhance its resilience against future disasters. Mitigation initiatives outlined in this plan are intended to minimize disaster impacts and promote a safer, more disaster-resilient community. The LMSWG will continue to develop and implement these initiatives as resources become available, prioritizing projects based on risk assessments and community needs. By executing these strategies, Collier County is working to become a safer and more resilient community. This LMS document outlines the efforts of the LMSWG over recent years, including the establishment of the working group, the technical analyses conducted, and the coordination of mitigation projects proposed by participating jurisdictions and organizations. Additionally, this strategy incorporates jurisdictional Floodplain Management Plans where applicable. Through the continued publication and periodic update of this Local Mitigation Strategy, the LMSWG invites community-wide involvement to protect the people, neighborhoods, businesses, and institutions of Collier County from the impacts of future hazards. i i 6 F 4 Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy 2025 December 19, 2024 SUMMARY OF CHANGES This page provides a comprehensive overview of all changes made to the Local Mitigation Strategy since its inception.

The LMS aims to unify efforts among county and municipal governments, private sector partners, and community organizations to address hazard vulnerabilities and improve hazard management across Collier County. This strategy serves as a guide for county and municipal agencies to: • Reduce vulnerability to both natural and man-made hazards, • Establish funding priorities for proposed mitigation projects, and • Coordinate efforts for disaster response and recovery through designated disaster assistance funds. By working collaboratively, the LMS supports long-term resilience in the county by planning and prioritizing mitigation actions that reduce risks to life, property, and critical infrastructure. 1.2 PROGRAM ORGANIZATION & MITIGATION STRATEGY PREPARATION PROCESS The success of the Local Mitigation Strategy (LMS) depends on a well-organized structure and active community participation, facilitated through regular LMS meetings and dedicated ad hoc committees. The LMS was initially developed in 2004 by the Collier County Emergency Management Division staff, with input from the public collected throughout the planning process. During its creation, staff reviewed existing resources, including the County's Comprehensive Plan and post-disaster after-action reports, to build a foundation for hazard mitigation. Public meetings were held to gain input and to establish the Local Mitigation Strategy Working Group (LMSWG), which continues to lead the LMS's development and implementation. Following its formation, the LMSWG completed the drafting of the LMS, which was subsequently adopted by Collier County, its municipalities, and Collier County Public Schools. Over time, LMSWG membership has expanded to reflect broader community representation and expertise. In 2019, three independent fire districts (Immokalee, North Collier, and Greater Naples) and two special taxing districts (Collier County Mosquito Control and Heritage Bay Community Development District) joined the LMSWG. Since the plan's initial adoption, the LMSWG has periodically updated the LMS as needed, with changes largely focused on project scoring, project prioritization, and membership updates. Each quarterly meeting of the LMSWG includes a dedicated time for reviewing, monitoring, and updating the LMS to ensure it remains current and effective. These updates are summarized in the "Summary of Changes" section of the LMS. The LMSWG also maintains a public-facing homepage at https://bit.Iv/3OJHZ6F 1- 1 16F 4 Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy 2025 October 3 I,2024 where comments, grant opportunities, and LMS updates are posted as they become available. Five-Year Plan Update Cycles The LMS is reviewed and updated every five years to ensure alignment with community needs, regulatory requirements, and best practices. Each update cycle includes a comprehensive review and revision of the LMS, often involving external analyses and extensive public engagement: • 2010 Cycle: The Southwest Florida Regional Planning Council was contracted to assist in the development of the county's Risk Assessment and Vulnerability Analyses. LMSWG members collaborated with the Chair throughout 2009 to complete necessary updates, with meeting minutes documenting the discussions and decisions available on the LMSWG homepage. • 2015 Cycle: Public engagement remained a priority, with an online draft version made available for public review and feedback. This cycle included contracted analyses of flood hazards, including storm surge impacts, led by the county floodplain manager. Additionally, the Florida Forest Service provided an updated wildfire hazard assessment. • 2020 Cycle: Updates during this cycle focused on refining the project scoring sheet, reassessing mitigation goals, and engaging the public extensively. Quarterly meeting announcements were distributed through public notices and social media, actively inviting community comments on the LMS. A "note seeking public comment" was prominently displayed on the LMS homepage throughout the review period, and each LMS meeting agenda included an item for public input on the strategy. • 2025 Cycle: This cycle emphasizes enhancing the LMS's readability while maintaining consistency with FEMA and State requirements. Updates for this cycle include revisions to reflect current names, agencies, and jurisdictions to ensure the LMS remains relevant and user-friendly. The Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment (HIRA) has been comprehensively updated by WSP USA Environment & Infrastructure, Inc., providing an accurate and current assessment of Collier County's hazard risks and vulnerabilities. By implementing these updates, the LMSWG aims to strengthen the LMS's effectiveness and maintain community engagement, ensuring that the LMS remains a valuable tool for mitigation planning and resilience-building throughout Collier County. 1.2.1 Local Mitigation Strategy Working Group Membership & Quorum for Business The Local Mitigation Strategy Working Group (LMSWG), organized under the Collier County Citizens Corps, is the primary policy-making body for the Local Mitigation 1- 2 16F 4 Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy 2025 October 31,2024 Strategy (LMS) program. The LMSWG's role is to guide the formulation, implementation, and ongoing refinement of the Collier County Multi-Jurisdictional Local Mitigation Strategy, ensuring broad participation and effective hazard mitigation planning across the county. Membership Structure and Requirements Membership in the LMSWG is open, encouraging participation from public agencies, private sector organizations, and community stakeholders. However, FEMA requires specific jurisdictions to adopt the LMS and actively participate in the LMSWG to be eligible for hazard mitigation project grants. These required jurisdictions include: • Collier County Government (Board • North Collier Fire Control and Rescue of County Commissioners) District • City of Marco Island • Immokalee Fire Control District • City of Naples • Greater Naples Fire Rescue District • City of Naples Airport Authority • Naples Airport Authority • Everglades City • Lee County Electric Cooperative • Collier County Public Schools • Port of the Islands Community • Collier Mosquito Control District Improvement District Voting Members Voting privileges are granted to residents of Collier County or those with a significant business or professional interest in the county, such as employees or local business owners. Private nonprofit organizations, while not required to formally adopt the LMS, are invited to participate actively and contribute to the planning process. To obtain voting membership, individuals or entities must request to be "participating members" at an LMSWG meeting, where the group will vote to approve the request. Each approved voting entity is entitled to one vote on LMS matters, including project prioritization and plan updates. Voting representatives can appoint designated alternates to attend and vote in their absence, ensuring continuity in participation. When setting project priorities for mitigation grant applications, each jurisdiction holds one vote to maintain balanced representation. Non-Voting Participants All LMSWG meetings, whether quarterly or special sessions, are open to the public. Non-voting participants, including local and regional agencies involved in hazard mitigation, regulatory development authorities, and other interested community members, are encouraged to attend. Meeting announcements are made publicly through press releases and posted on the LMSWG's webpage, which also includes agendas and past meeting minutes at https://bit.ly/3OJHZ6F. 1- 3 16F 4 Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy 2025 October 31,2024 Leadership and Roles The LMSWG elects a Chair and Vice-Chair annually from within its membership. Both positions may be re-elected if the membership agrees. The Chair leads meetings and may only vote to break a tie. The Vice-Chair holds voting rights unless they are acting as Chair in the Chair's absence. These leaders guide discussions, ensure that meetings adhere to protocols, and facilitate the administrative and strategic activities of the LMSWG. Responsibilities of Voting Members Voting members, also known as "participating members," are required to: 1. Attend all scheduled LMSWG meetings, sending a qualified alternate if the primary member is unavailable. An alternate's attendance prevents the absence from being counted against the member's participation record. 2. Provide requested information within designated timeframes, supporting the LMSWG's goals and objectives. 3. Update and maintain jurisdiction-specific information in the LMS, ensuring data accuracy and completeness. Quorum for Conducting Business To conduct official business, the LMSWG requires a quorum of at least five voting members. Once a quorum is present, a simple majority vote decides on LMS actions and priorities. Revocation of Voting Status Consistent attendance is critical for maintaining voting privileges within the LMSWG. A designated jurisdiction that fails to attend two properly noticed meetings within a calendar year, without a designated alternate attending, may lose its voting status. In such cases, the LMS Chair will notify the jurisdiction of the potential loss of voting privileges and, if not corrected, inform the highest authority within the jurisdiction (such as the City Manager, Public Schools Superintendent, or District Director) that the jurisdiction is no longer eligible for FEMA mitigation grants until "participating membership" is re-established. Non-jurisdictional voting members (such as private citizens or nonprofit representatives) who miss three consecutive properly noticed meetings without a valid excuse will be reviewed for potential voting revocation. Reinstatement of voting privileges requires a majority vote by the LMSWG to maintain active and informed membership. Public and Member Comments Comments submitted by members unable to attend meetings or from the public are welcomed. All comments received in advance are reviewed, discussed, and entered 1- 1 16F 4 Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy 2025 October 31,2024 into the meeting record to ensure all perspectives are considered in the decision-making process. 1.2.2 Local Mitigation Strategy Working Group's Committees The Chair of the Local Mitigation Strategy Working Group (LMSWG) is authorized to establish committees as needed to support the objectives of the Local Mitigation Strategy (LMS). Committee members are not limited to LMSWG members; they may include individuals with specialized expertise relevant to specific mitigation goals. Initially, three core committees were established to assist with program and plan development: • Vulnerability Analysis Committee • Finance & Outreach Committee • Community Rating System (CRS) Committee Over time, these committees evolved into two ad hoc sub-committees—the Community Rating System (CRS) Committee and the Wildfire Mitigation Committee. At the most recent LMSWG meeting, a new Vulnerability Analysis Steering Committee was added to provide focused guidance on risk and vulnerability assessments within the LMS. The LMSWG Chair may also convene Special Meetings as necessary to address specific issues. When a Special Meeting is called, a public notice will be issued at least 10 days before the meeting to ensure transparency and community participation. 1.2.3 Conflict Resolution If less than 50% of the Local Mitigation Strategy Working Group (LMSWG) opposes a particular issue, the following steps will be taken to resolve the disagreement: 1. Initial Meeting with Opposing Parties: A separate meeting will be arranged with those who oppose the issue, focusing on identifying the root causes of their concerns and exploring possible compromises. While other interested parties may attend, their attendance is not mandatory. 2. Further Discussion with Key Representatives: If a compromise seems achievable but requires additional discussion, a follow-up meeting may be held. This meeting would include a representative from the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) and a mayor or representative from the city councils of the opposing municipalities. A state representative may be invited if their input is considered beneficial. 3. Final Informal Resolution Attempt: Should opposition persist among a small minority of LMSWG members, a final informal meeting will be convened with the entire BCC and the relevant city councils or commissions. 1- 2 16F 4 Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy 2025 October 3I,2024 4. Handling Opposition from Non-Governmental Entities: Disputes raised by non-governmental participants will be addressed following the same steps outlined above. 5. Formal Mediation Process: If no resolution is reached through informal efforts, the matter will be referred to the full Collier County Citizen Corps for further consideration. If 75% of the Citizen Corps recommends additional resolution efforts, the formal Conflict Resolution Process of the Southwest Florida Regional Planning Council will be initiated. Conversely, if 75% of the Citizen Corps advises against further mediation, the issue will be tabled. All meetings of the LMSWG, its subcommittees, and the Citizen Corps are conducted in accordance with Florida's Government in the Sunshine Law. This ensures that all meetings are open to the public and properly advertised to promote transparency and community involvement. 1.3 LOCAL MITIGATION STRATEGY OUTREACH, PARTICIPATION & MEETING REQUIREMENTS Currently, the only participation requirements apply to "Participating Jurisdictions" and designated voting members. If a voting member is unable to attend, an alternate may attend in their place to ensure continuity. However, alternates may only vote if specifically permitted by the LMSWG membership. The LMSWG holds quarterly meetings at a minimum, with additional meetings scheduled as needed. All meetings are announced with reasonable notice through the Collier County Communications & Customer Relations Division and posted on the LMS website (https://bit.Iy/3OJHZ6F) to encourage public involvement. Subcommittees, if formed, will establish their own schedules, provide proper notice of meeting times and locations, and report their findings to the LMSWG. Meeting minutes are publicly accessible on the LMS website, providing a record of all discussions and decisions. For those who need hard copies of the minutes, the Emergency Management Division staff can provide them upon request. 1.3.1 PARTICIPATING JURISDICTIONS To qualify for funding under several federal mitigation programs, jurisdictions must formally adopt the Local Mitigation Strategy (LMS) and actively participate in the Local Mitigation Strategy Working Group (LMSWG). Programs requiring LMS participation include the Hazard Mitigation Grant Program (HMGP), Building Resilient Infrastructure and Communities (BRIC), Flood Mitigation Assistance (FMA), Community Development Block Grant - Mitigation (CDBG-MIT), and the Pre- Disaster Mitigation (PDM) program. Additionally, participation in the LMS is necessary to access funding opportunities through the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) Community Rating System (CRS), U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) 1- 3 16F 4 Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy 2025 October 31,2024 Resilience Grants, and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Flood Risk Management Program. Jurisdictions must adopt the LMS through a formal resolution or interlocal agreement to remain eligible for these funding opportunities. Copies of these resolutions and agreements, along with the Board of County Commissioners' agenda item summary, are included in Annex B. The current LMS Working Group membership roster can be found in Annex H. The original "Participating Jurisdictions" (those that adopted the plan) remain involved, with all but Everglades City also participating in the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) Community Rating System (CRS). For further details on how Collier County and its jurisdictions comply with NFIP, see Annex I. The following are the current Participating Jurisdictions: • Collier County Government (Board • North Collier Fire Control and Rescue of County Commissioners) District • City of Marco Island • Immokalee Fire Control District • City of Naples • Greater Naples Fire Rescue District • City of Naples Airport Authority • Naples Airport Authority • Everglades City • Lee County Electric Cooperative • Collier County Public Schools • Port of the Islands Community • Collier Mosquito Control District Improvement District Responsibilities of Participating Jurisdictions Each participating jurisdiction is expected to: 1. Nominate a Primary and Alternate Representative: Representatives must attend and actively participate in all scheduled LMSWG meetings. To ensure informed participation, nominees should have the support of their jurisdiction's chief executive. 2. Provide Required Information: Furnish all information requested by the LMSWG within established timeframes. 3. Maintain Accurate LMS Data: Update and manage jurisdiction-specific information in the LMS to keep it current. 4. Ratify the Final LMS: Formally adopt the LMS as ratified by the Board of County Commissioners, either by resolution or another legal method, to confirm participation and commitment to the mitigation strategy. 1.3.2 Non-Governmental Organizations (NGO's) and other Governmental Entities Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) and other governmental entities are encouraged to participate in the LMS Working Group (LMSWG) and may qualify for 1- 4 16F 4 Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy 2025 October 31,2024 Local Mitigation Strategy (LMS) grant sponsorship by following the meeting participation standards outlined for Participating Jurisdictions. Adjacent counties and the Seminole Tribe, represented by their emergency management offices, are also invited to participate. These external jurisdictions, along with the general public, receive LMSWG meeting invitations via email and public notices distributed through the Collier County Communications and Customer Relations Division. 1.3.3 The Public and Private Sector Participation by private organizations and the public in the Local Mitigation Strategy Working Group (LMSWG) is voluntary. However, attendance, comments, and contributions from these groups are actively encouraged, monitored, and documented to ensure broad community engagement. When the LMS was first established in 2004, a comprehensive public invitation to participate was disseminated through multiple channels, including newspaper announcements, broadcast faxes (to over 900 businesses, condominiums, mobile home parks, and private schools), email lists (reaching over 1,000 addresses), and online postings on the LMS website (https://bit.ly/3OJHZ6F). A targeted invitation is also extended to key organizations, including: • Municipal Governments: Cities of Naples, Marco Island, and Everglades City • Collier County Sheriff's Office • Collier County Clerk of Courts • Collier County Property Appraiser • American Red Cross • Florida Gulf Coast University • Collier County Public Schools • Hodges University • Florida Power & Light • Lee County Electric Cooperative • Southwest Florida Regional Planning Council • Naples Chamber of Commerce • Immokalee Friendship House • South Florida Water Management District • Naples Community Hospital • Florida Department of Health • Florida Division of Law Enforcement • Florida Forest Service • Immokalee Independent Fire District • North Collier Fire Control and Rescue District • Greater Naples Fire Rescue District 1- 1 16F 4 Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy 2025 October 3I,2024 • Florida Department of Agriculture • Florida Division of Emergency Management Since then, meeting invitations have been sent out regularly via an updated email distribution list, posted on the LMS website, and announced through the County's public notice process. Draft minutes and agendas are included in each meeting invitation to keep stakeholders informed. Procedures to ensure public involvement can be found in Annex D, and Annex G contains records of community participation. The current email distribution list includes contacts from various agencies, departments, and emergency management organizations in Collier County and neighboring areas. Representatives are notified of upcoming meetings and encouraged to contribute to discussions on hazard mitigation. Each meeting's summary, attendance, public invitations, comments, and related documentation are available on the LMS webpage to ensure transparency and community involvement. 1.4 JURISDICTIONAL ADOPTION OF THE LOCAL MITIGATION STRATEGY To participate in and benefit from the Local Mitigation Strategy (LMS) program at the local, state, and federal levels, each jurisdiction must formally adopt the LMS. This is done by completing and filing a fully executed resolution or interlocal agreement, as outlined in Annex B. These documents must meet adoption standards jointly established and periodically updated by the Collier County Board of County Commissioners and the LMS Working Group (LMSWG). 1.5 NEW JURISDICTIONS/ENTITIES If county restructuring results in the addition, deletion, or merging of jurisdictions, the Local Mitigation Strategy (LMS) will adjust its voting member rolls accordingly. Any newly defined jurisdiction will be required to submit all necessary documentation to participate in the LMS program. 1- 2 il 6F 4 Summary of Countywide Hazards and Vulnerabilities 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 2 HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The purpose of this Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment (HIRA) is to understand the hazards and associated risks that threaten the Collier County planning area in order to enable the development of effective mitigation actions. This HIRA profiles 23 natural and technological hazards identified by the Collier County LMS Working Group and covers all of Collier County, including the unincorporated County and all incorporated jurisdictions* participating in this plan. *Note on Seminole Tribe Participation: While the Seminole Tribe of Florida is included in the hazard analysis to provide a comprehensive understanding of risks across Collier County,the Tribe is not a formal participant in the Local Mitigation Strategy Working Group(LMSWG). Due to their sovereign status,the Seminole Tribe operates independently and is a direct grantee with the federal government for hazard mitigation funding and planning initiatives. However, coordination efforts with the Tribe are encouraged to ensure regional resilience and alignment of mitigation efforts where applicable. Plan Revisions and Changes in Priorities The Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy(LMS) undergoes periodic revisions to reflect changes in priorities influenced by several factors, including new leadership, recent hazard events, evolving risk assessments, public input, and updates to federal and state guidelines. Key sections of the LMS that have been revised include goals and objectives, risk assessment, mitigation strategy, and project prioritization methods. • New Leadership: Changes in key personnel within Collier County and other stakeholder agencies have brought fresh perspectives and priorities to the LMS, influencing the focus of mitigation efforts. • Recent Hazard Events: The LMS has been updated in response to recent events such as hurricanes, flooding, and wildfire incidents, which highlighted vulnerabilities and informed new mitigation strategies. • Public Input: Ongoing engagement with the community through public meetings, surveys, and outreach initiatives has identified emerging concerns and informed plan adjustments. • Risk Assessment Updates: The latest Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment (HIRA), conducted by WSP USA Environment & Infrastructure, Inc., has provided updated data, leading to revisions in mitigation strategies and prioritization. • Regulatory and Policy Changes: Compliance with updated FEMA and Florida Division of Emergency Management requirements has necessitated modifications to ensure alignment with best practices and funding eligibility criteria. These revisions ensure that the LMS remains a dynamic and responsive document, continuously adapting to the county's changing needs and priorities. As defined by FEMA, risk is a combination of hazard, vulnerability, and exposure. The risk assessment process identifies and profiles relevant hazards and assesses the exposure of lives, property, and infrastructure to these hazards. As a foundation of this Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page i 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 risk assessment, an asset inventory was compiled summarizing the buildings and infrastructure at risk within each jurisdiction according to current available parcel data and input from the LMS Working Group. This asset inventory details the total exposure of the planning area to hazard events and was used to evaluate vulnerability specific to each hazard. This risk assessment followed the methodology described in the FEMA publication Understanding Your Risks—Identifying Hazards and Estimating Losses (FEMA 386-2, 2002). Each hazard profile in this HIRA describes the type, location, and extent of the hazard; includes information on previous occurrences of the hazard event; discusses the probability of future hazard events; describes the hazard's impact on the community; and summarizes overall vulnerability. Where quantitative and/or spatial data on hazard risk was available, overall vulnerability includes an evaluation of potential impacts based on each community's exposure according to the asset inventory. Additionally, a discussion of the potential impacts of climate change on future hazard events can be found in each hazard profile. To summarize each hazard's overall risk to the planning area and prioritize hazards relative to each other, each hazard was also evaluated using the Priority Risk Index (PRI). The PRI methodology enabled the LMS Working Group to rate the hazards according to their probability, impact, spatial extent, warning time, and duration to produce an overall PRI score for each hazard. The process allows for a better understanding of the potential risk to natural hazards in the planning area and provides a framework for developing and prioritizing mitigation actions to reduce risk from future hazard events. The natural and technological hazards profiled in this risk assessment and their associated PRI ratings are summarized below. Spatial PRI Hazard Probability Impact Extent Warning Time Duration Score Natural Hazards Flood Highly Likely Critical Large 6 to 12 hours Less than 1 week Tropical Cyclones Likely Catastrophic Large More than 24 hrs Less than 1 week Severe Storms' 2 Highly Likely Limited Large Less than 6 hrs Less than 6 hrs (Thunderstorm) Severe Storms1 Highly Likely Minor Negligible Less than 6 hrs Less than 6 hrs 2.2 (Lightning) Severe Storms1 (Hail) Highly Likely Minor Small Less than 6 hrs Less than 6 hrs 2.4 Severe Storms' 2 Highly Likely Critical Small Less than 6 hrs Less than 6 hrs (Tornado) Wildfire2 Likely Critical Moderate Less than 6 hrs Less than 1 week Coastal Erosion2 Likely Limited Small More than 24 hrs Less than 1 week 2.3 Drought Likely Minor Large More than 24 hrs More than 1 week 2.5 Extreme Heat Highly Likely Limited Large More than 24 hrs Less than 1 week Sea Level Rise and other Climate Change Likely Critical Large More than 24 hrs More than 1 week Characteristics2 Sinkholes Unlikely Limited Negligible Less than 6 hrs More than 1 week 1.9 Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page ii 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 Hazard Probability Impact Eptent Warning Time Duration Score Winter Storms and Likely Limited Large More than 24 hrs Less than 1 week 2.7 Freeze Earthquake Unlikely Minor Moderate Less than 6 hrs Less than 6 hrs 1.7 Tsunami2 Unlikely Limited Moderate 6 to 12 hrs Less than 24 hrs 2.0 Technological and Human-Caused Hazards&Threats Major Transportation Possible Critical Negligible Less than 6 hrs More than 1 week 2.5 Incidents Pandemic Outbreak Possible Critical Moderate More than 24 hrs More than 1 week Hazardous Materials Likely Limited Negligible Less than 6 hrs Less than 24 hrs Coastal Oil Spills2 Possible Limited Small 6 to 12 hrs More than 1 week Less than 6 Nuclear Power Plante Unlikely Catastrophic Small hours More than 1 week , - .. `' Terrorism Unlikely Catastrophic Negligible Less than 6 hrs Less than 6 hrs 2.2 Mass Migration Possible Critical Moderate 6 to 12 hrs More than 1 week 2.8 Incident Civil Disturbance Possible Limited Small Less than 6 hrs Less than 1 week - 2.3 Critical Infrastructure Possible Critical Large Less than 6 hrs Less than 1 week 3.0 Disruption ii— Special Events Likely Minor Negligible Less than 6 hrs Less than 24 hrs 2.0 Red Tide/Algae Likely Limited Small More than 24 hrs More than 1 week 2.4 Bloom2 1Severe Storms and Tornadoes hazards average to a score of 2.76 and are therefore considered together as a moderate-risk hazard. 2Note: These risks varied by jurisdiction, so the most severe score is shown. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page iii 1 6 rF 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 The results from the PRI were classified into three categories based on the assigned risk value: • High Risk (>_ 3.0) — Widespread potential impact. This ranking carries a high threat to the general population and/or built environment. The potential for damage is widespread. • Medium Risk (2.0 — 2.9) — Moderate potential impact. This ranking carries a moderate threat level to the general population and/or built environment. Here the potential damage is more isolated and less costly than a more widespread disaster. • Low Risk (< 2.0) — Minimal potential impact. The occurrence and potential cost of damage to life and property is minimal. This is not a priority hazard. The high, moderate, and low risk hazards relevant to Collier County are listed below.

It describes how the County met the above requirements from 44 CFR 201.6 and the following Community Rating System Activity 510 planning steps: • Planning Step 4: Assess the Hazard • Planning Step 5: Assess the Problem As defined by FEMA, risk is a combination of hazard, vulnerability, and exposure. "It is the impact that a hazard would have on people, services, facilities, and structures in a community and refers to the likelihood of a hazard event resulting in an adverse condition that causes injury or damage." This hazard risk assessment covers all of Collier County, including the unincorporated County and all incorporated jurisdictions participating in this plan. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 6 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 The risk assessment process identifies and profiles relevant hazards and assesses the exposure of lives, property, and infrastructure to these hazards. The process allows for a better understanding of the potential risk to natural hazards in the county and provides a framework for developing and prioritizing mitigation actions to reduce risk from future hazard events. This risk assessment followed the methodology described in the FEMA publication Understanding Your Risks—Identifying Hazards and Estimating Losses (FEMA 386-2, 2002), which breaks the assessment down to a four-step process: 1.Identify 2. Profile 3. Inventory 4. Estimate Hazards Hazard Assets Losses Events Data collected through this process has been incorporated into the following sections of this plan: • Section 2.2: Hazard Identification identifies the natural and human-caused hazards that occur in the planning area. • Section 2.3: Risk Assessment Methodology and Assumptions summarizes the approach used to develop this risk assessment. • Section 2.4: Asset Inventory details buildings and critical facilities at risk within the planning area. • Section 2.5: Hazard Profiles, Analysis, and Vulnerability discusses each hazard, describes past occurrences and the likelihood of future occurrences, and assesses the planning area's exposure to each hazard profiled; considering assets at risk, critical facilities, and future development trends. • Section 2.6: Conclusions on Hazard Risk summarizes the results of the Priority Risk Index and defines each hazard as a Low, Medium, or High-Risk hazard. 2.2 HAZARD IDENTIFICATION To identify hazards relevant to the planning area, the LMS working group began with a review of the list of hazards identified in the 2023 State Hazard Mitigation Plan and the 2020 Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy (LMS) as summarized in Table 2.1. The LMS working group used these lists to identify a full range of hazards for potential inclusion in this plan update and to ensure consistency across these planning efforts. All hazards listed below were evaluated for inclusion in this plan update. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 7 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 Table 2.1 — Full Range of Hazards Evaluated Hazard Included in 2023 State HMP?

Significance was measured in general terms and focused on key criteria such as frequency and resulting damage, which includes deaths and injuries, as well as property and economic damage. One key resource in this effort was the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's National Center for Environmental Information (NCEI), which has been tracking various types of severe weather since 1950. Their Storm Events Database contains an archive by county of destructive storm or weather data and information which includes local, intense and damaging events. NCEI receives storm data from the National Weather Service (NWS), which compiles their information from a variety of Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 8 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 sources, including but not limited to: county, state and federal emergency management officials; local law enforcement officials; SkyWarn spotters; NWS damage surveys; newspaper clipping services; the insurance industry and the general public, among others. The NCEI database contains 413 records of severe weather events that occurred in Collier County in the 24-year period from 2000 through 2023. Table 2.2 summarizes these events.

The LMS working group also researched past events that resulted in a federal and/or state emergency or disaster declaration for Collier County in order to identify significant hazards. Two types of disaster declarations are provided in the Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act of 1988: emergency declarations and major disaster declarations. If a disaster is so severe that both the local and state government capacities are exceeded, a federal emergency or disaster declaration allows for the provision of federal assistance. • Emergency declarations: When federal assistance is needed, the President of the United States can declare an emergency for any occasion or disaster. Emergency declarations aide State and local efforts in providing emergency services that help protect human lives. • Major disaster declarations: When a local government's capacity has been surpassed, a state disaster declaration may be issued, allowing for the provision of state assistance. Federal and/or state disaster declarations may be granted Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 9 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 r when the Governor certifies that the combined local, county, and state resources are insufficient, and the situation is beyond their recovery capabilities. Records of designated counties for FEMA major disaster declarations start in 1964.

Each hazard was evaluated to determine its probability of future occurrence and potential impact. A vulnerability assessment was conducted for each hazard using either quantitative or qualitative methods depending on the available data, to determine its potential to cause significant human and/or monetary losses. A consequence analysis was also completed for each hazard. Each hazard is profiled in the following format: • HAZARD DESCRIPTION This section provides a description of the hazard, including discussion of its speed of onset and duration, as well as any secondary effects followed by details specific to the Collier County planning area. • LOCATION This section includes information on the hazard's physical extent, with mapped boundaries where applicable. WSP Collier County,FL September 2024 WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment page 13 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 • EXTENT This section includes information on the hazard extent in terms of magnitude, describe how the severity of the hazard can be measured. Where available, the most severe event on record used as a frame of reference. • HISTORICAL OCCURRENCES This section contains information on historical events, including the location and consequences of all past events on record within or near the Collier County planning area. • PROBABILITY OF FUTURE OCCURRENCE This section gauges the likelihood of future occurrences based on past events and existing data. The frequency is determined by dividing the number of events observed by the number of years on record and multiplying by 100. This provides the percent chance of the event happening in any given year according to historical occurrence (e.g. 10 winter storm events over a 30-year period equates to a 33 percent chance of experiencing a severe winter storm in any given year). • CLIMATE CHANGE Where applicable, this section discusses how climate change may or may not influence the risk posed by the hazard on the planning area in the future. • VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT This section quantifies, to the extent feasible using best available data, assets at risk to natural hazards and potential loss estimates. People, properties and critical facilities, and environmental assets that are vulnerable to the hazard are identified. Future development is also discussed in this section, including how exposure to the hazard may change in the future or how development may affect hazard risk. The vulnerability assessments followed the methodology described in the FEMA publication Understanding Your Risks—Identifying Hazards and Estimating Losses (August 2001). The vulnerability assessment first describes the total vulnerability and values at risk and then discusses vulnerability by hazard. Data used to support this assessment included the following: • Geographic Information System (GIS) datasets, including building footprints, topography, aerial photography, and transportation layers; • Hazard layer GIS datasets from state and federal agencies; • Written descriptions of inventory and risks provided by the 2023 Florida Enhanced State Hazard Mitigation Plan; • Written descriptions of inventory and risks provided by the 2020 Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy and the 2015 Collier County Floodplain Management Plan; • Exposure and vulnerability estimates derived using local parcel and building data; and WSP Collier County,FL September 2024 WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment Page14 6 +F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 • Crop insurance claims by cause from USDA's Risk Management Agency. Two distinct risk assessment methodologies were used in the formation of the vulnerability assessment. The first consists of a quantitative analysis that relies upon best available data and technology, while the second approach consists of a qualitative analysis that relies on local knowledge and rational decision making. The quantitative analysis involved the use of FEMA's Hazus-MH, a nationally applicable standardized set of models for estimating potential losses from earthquakes, floods, and hurricanes. Hazus uses a statistical approach and mathematical modeling of risk to predict a hazard's frequency of occurrence, and estimated impacts based on recorded or historic damage information. The Hazus risk assessment methodology is parametric, in that distinct hazard and inventory parameters—such as wind speed and building type—were modeled using the Hazus software to determine the impact on the built environment. Collier County's GIS-based risk assessment was completed using data collected from local, regional and national sources that included Collier County, Florida DEM, and FEMA. Vulnerability can be quantified in those instances where there is a known, identified hazard area, such as a mapped floodplain. In these instances, the numbers and types of buildings subject to the identified hazard can be counted and their values tabulated. Other information can be collected regarding the hazard area, such as the location of critical facilities, historic structures, and valued natural resources (e.g., an identified wetland or endangered species habitat). Together, this information conveys the vulnerability of that area to that hazard. • PRIORITY RISK INDEX The conclusions drawn from the hazard profiling and vulnerability assessment process can be used to prioritize all potential hazards to the Collier County planning area. The Priority Risk Index (PRI) was applied for this purpose because it provides a standardized numerical value so that hazards can be compared against one another (the higher the PRI value, the greater the hazard risk). PRI values are obtained by assigning varying degrees of risk to five categories for each hazard (probability, impact, spatial extent, warning time, and duration). Each degree of risk was assigned a value (1 to 4) and a weighting factor as summarized in Table 2.6. PRI ratings by category for the planning area as a whole are provided throughout each hazard profile. Ratings specific to each jurisdiction are provided at the end of each hazard profile. The results of the risk assessment and overall PRI scoring are provided in Section 0 Conclusions on Hazard Risk. The purpose of the PRI is to categorize and prioritize all potential hazards for the Collier County planning area as high, moderate, or low risk. The summary hazard classifications generated using the PRI allows for the prioritization of those high and moderate hazard risks for mitigation planning purposes.

Assets primarily include buildings, critical facilities, and civil infrastructure. Building footprints, parcel data containing occupancy and building value data, and a critical facility inventory were provided by Collier County. By identifying the type and number of assets that exist in the County and their location relative to known hazard areas, the risk and vulnerability of these assets could be assessed. Changes in Development and Land Use Trends Collier County has experienced significant development and land use changes that have influenced the community's vulnerability to hazards. Over the years, growth has been concentrated in coastal and inland areas, with an increase in residential, commercial, and infrastructure development. Key trends include: • Coastal Development: Expansion of residential and commercial properties along the coastline has increased exposure to flooding, storm surge, and sea level rise. Efforts to mitigate these risks have included stricter building codes and floodplain management practices. • Urban Expansion: Growth in inland areas has led to increased impervious surfaces, contributing to stormwater runoff and localized flooding challenges. New developments have incorporated stormwater management improvements to address these concerns. • Critical Infrastructure Expansion: New transportation networks, energy facilities, and public services have been introduced to support population growth. These expansions require additional mitigation measures to reduce exposure to hazards such as hurricanes and wildfires. • Land Conservation Efforts: In response to rising vulnerabilities, Collier County has implemented land-use policies aimed at preserving natural buffers, such as wetlands and green spaces, which help absorb floodwaters and reduce wildfire spread. WSP Collier County,FL September 2024 Hazard Identification dentification and Risk Assessment Page 17 1 6 F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 • Future Development Projections: Anticipated growth areas include planned developments in high-risk zones, which will require adaptive strategies to minimize future hazard exposure, including elevation requirements and resilient infrastructure design. 2.4.1 BUILDING EXPOSURE Property exposure includes all improved property in Collier County and its incorporated jurisdictions according to parcel and building footprint data provided by Collier County.

The residential property type assumes a content replacement value equal to 50% of the building value. Agricultural and commercial property types assume a content replacement value equal to 100% of the building value. The industrial property type assumes a content replacement value equal to 150% of the building value. 2.4.2 CRITICAL FACILITIES AND INFRASTRUCTURE EXPOSURE Of significant concern with respect to any disaster event is the location of critical facilities and infrastructure in the planning area. Critical facilities are often defined as those essential services and lifelines that, if damaged during an emergency event, would result in severe consequences to public health, safety, and welfare. Critical facility information is regularly updated by the County. These facilities were identified and verified by the LMS working group. Critical facilities and infrastructure in Collier County are listed by type in Table 2.8. Critical facility locations are shown in Figure 2.1 through Figure 2.5.

As defined by FEMA, a flood is a general and temporary condition of partial or complete inundation of two or more acres of normally dry land area or of two or more properties. Flooding can result from an overflow of inland waters or an unusual accumulation or runoff of surface waters from any source. Flooding causes more damage in the United States than any other severe weather related event, an average of$5 billion a year. Approximately 90 percent of presidentially declared disasters result from flood-related natural hazard events. Taken as a whole, more frequent, localized flooding problems that do not meet federal disaster declaration thresholds ultimately cause most damages across the United States. SOURCES AND TYPES OF FLOODING Per the effective Flood Insurance Study (FIS) for Collier County, revised February 8, 2024, flooding results from two major sources. Coastal areas are subject to inundation from ocean surges, and inland areas can become flooded when rainfall accumulates in low, flat areas. Rainfall primarily occurs during thunderstorms in the summer months, with additional rainfall resulting from the passage of hurricanes. A transition region near the coast is vulnerable to both rainfall and ocean surge flooding. Coastal lands typically lie below an elevation of 9 feet and are subject to flooding from hurricanes and tropical storms. The general topography of Collier County is extremely flat, with land slopes on the order of 1 foot per mile to 0.5 foot per mile in the interior regions. There are no major natural streams, such as those found in areas of steeper topography. Rather, flow occurs over wide, flat areas, in sloughs, and through manmade canal systems. Natural, well-drained channels are apparent only close to the coast. The lack of steep slopes precludes rapid runoff; therefore, water accumulates in ponded areas and slowly infiltrates the groundwater system or sluggishly drains over the land. Coastal Tidal Flooding: All lands bordering the Gulf Coast are susceptible to tidal effects and flooding. Coastal land such as sand bars, barrier islands and deltas provide a buffer zone to help protect human life and real property relative to the sea much as flood plains provide a buffer zone along rivers and other bodies of water. Coastal floods usually occur because of abnormally high tides or tidal waves, storm surge and heavy rains in combination with high tides, tropical storms and hurricanes. Overland Sheet Flow: Due to the relative flatness of Collier County's topography, historical water flow has always been shallow overland sheet flow during the wet season, when this flow enters sloughs and the man-made canal system. Shallow Ponding: Because much of the County is flat, whatever rainfall doesn't she flow from an area tends to pond and percolate into the ground, causing water tables to rise Collier County,FL WSp Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 25 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 during the wet season to within a foot or less of the ground in most of Collier County, so there is little soil storage. Other forms of flooding in the county might include: Flash or Rapid Flooding: A flash flood occurs when water levels rise at an extremely fast rate as a result of intense rainfall over a brief period, possibly from slow-moving intense thunderstorms and sometimes combined with saturated soil, or impermeable surfaces. Flash flooding can happen in Special Flood Hazard Areas (SFHAs) as delineated by the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) and can also happen in areas not associated with floodplains. Flash flood hazards caused by surface water runoff are most common in urbanized areas, where greater population density generally equates to more impervious surface (e.g., pavement and buildings) which increases the amount of surface water generated. Flash flooding is a dangerous form of flooding which can reach full peak in only a few minutes. Rapid onset allows little or no time for protective measures. Flash flood waters move at very fast speeds and can move boulders, tear out trees, scour channels, destroy buildings, and obliterate bridges. Flash flooding can result in higher loss of life, both human and animal, than slower developing river and stream flooding. Localized/Stormwater Flooding: Localized stormwater flooding can occur throughout Collier County. Localized stormwater flooding occurs when heavy rainfall and an accumulation of runoff overburden the stormwater drainage system. The cause of localized stormwater flooding in Collier County can be attributed to its generally flat topography, among other factors. Localized flooding may be caused by the following issues: • Inadequate Capacity — An undersized/under capacity pipe system can cause water to back-up behind a structure which can lead to areas of ponded water and/or overtopping of banks. • Clogged Inlets — Debris covering the asphalt apron and the top of grate at catch basin inlets may contribute to an inadequate flow of stormwater into the system. Debris within the basin itself may also reduce the efficiency of the system by reducing the carrying capacity. • Blocked Drainage Outfalls — Debris blockage or structural damage at drainage outfalls may prevent the system from discharging runoff, which may lead to a back-up of stormwater within the system. • Improper Grade — Poorly graded asphalt around catch basin inlets may prevent stormwater from entering the catch basin as designed. Areas of settled asphalt may create low spots within the roadway that allow for areas of ponded water. While localized flooding may not be as destructive as coastal flooding, it is a chronic problem. The repetitive damage caused by such flooding can add up. Sewers may back up, yards can be inundated, and homes, businesses and vehicles can be flooded. Drainage and sewer systems not designed to carry the capacity currently needed to handle increased storm runoff can cause water to back into basements and damage Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 26 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 mechanical systems. These impacts, and other localized flooding impacts, can create public health and safety concerns. In addition to these different types of flooding, flooding in Collier County is a factor of the amount and timing of rainfall and the tide cycle elevation. The amount of rainfall occurring in March would not have the same flooding effect if the same amount occurred in September. During the dry season, the water table elevation typically drops to several feet below natural ground elevations. This allows for larger storage volume in the soil, lakes, canals, ditches, and swales. During the wet season, however, the water table elevation is often near the natural ground surface, lakes are filled, and ditches are flowing. The rainfall added to such conditions creates more stormwater runoff. FLOODING AND FLOODPLAINS In coastal areas, flooding occurs due to high tides, tidal waves, storm surge, or heavy rains. In these areas, flood hazards typically include the added risk of wave action delineated by the VE Zone and Coastal AE Zone. Wave height and intensity decreases as floodwaters move inland. Figure 2.6 shows the typical coastal floodplain and the breakdown of flood zones in these settings. These flood zones are discussed further in Table 2.9.

The 500-year flood is the flood that has a 0.2 percent chance of being equaled or exceeded in any given year. The potential for flooding can change and increase through various land use changes and changes to land surface, which result in a change to the floodplain. A change in environment can create localized flooding problems inside and outside of natural floodplains by altering or confining natural drainage channels. These changes are most often created by human activity. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 27 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 The 100-year flood, which is the minimum standard used by most federal and state agencies, is used by the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) as the standard for floodplain management and to determine the need for flood insurance. Participation in the NFIP requires adoption and enforcement of a local floodplain management ordinance which is intended to prevent unsafe development in the floodplain, thereby reducing future flood damages. Participation in the NFIP allows for the federal government to make flood insurance available within the community as a financial protection against flood losses. Since floods have an annual probability of occurrence, have a known magnitude, depth and velocity for each event, and in most cases, have a map indicating where they will likely occur, they are in many ways often the most predictable and manageable hazard. • Warning Time: 3 — 6 to 12 hours • Duration: 3— Less than 1 week LOCATION Figure 2.7 through Figure 2.11 reflect the effective mapped flood insurance zones for Collier County and each participating jurisdiction. All of Collier County and its jurisdictions are exposed to flood risk, either from the 1%-annual-chance flood or a larger magnitude flood, or from storm surge, sea level rise, or stormwater flooding. • Spatial Extent: 4 — Large Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 28 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 Figure 2.7 — FEMA Flood Hazard Areas in Collier County A Imrnokalee Reservation ' ._, _� L 1 ti1 t Naples II • 1t. t} w1 \` 1 Marco Island lr •u. ir "Ili. •`•• liAwry .

Regulated floodplains are illustrated on inundation maps called Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs). It is the official map for a community on which FEMA has delineated both the Special Flood Hazard Areas (SFHAs) and the risk premium zones applicable to the community. SFHAs represent the areas subject to inundation by the 100-year flood event. Structures located within the SFHA have a 26-percent chance of flooding during the life of a standard 30-year mortgage. Flood prone areas were identified within Collier County using the Effective FIRMs, dated February 8, 2024. Table 2.9 summarizes the flood insurance zones identified by the Digital FIRM (DFIRM). Table 2.9 — Mapped Flood Insurance Zones within Collier County Zone Description Also known as the coastal high hazard areas.They are areas subject to high velocity water including waves; they are defined by the 1% annual chance (base)flood limits (also known as the 100-year VE flood) and wave effects 3 feet or greater. The hazard zone is mapped with base flood elevations (BFEs)that reflect the combined influence of stillwater flood elevations, primary frontal dunes, and wave effects 3 feet or greater. AE Zones, also within the 100-year flood limits, are defined with BFEs that reflect the combined influence of stillwater flood elevations and wave effects less than 3 feet. The AE Zone generally extends from the landward VE zone limit to the limits of the 100-year flood from coastal sources, or until it reaches the confluence with riverine flood sources.The AE Zones also depict the SFHA due AE to riverine flood sources, but instead of being subdivided into separate zones of differing BFEs with possible wave effects added, they represent the flood profile determined by hydrologic and hydraulic investigations and have no wave effects. The Coastal AE Zone is differentiated from the AE Zone by the Limit of Moderate Wave Action (LiMWA) and includes areas susceptible to wave action between 1.5 to 3 feet. Areas subject to inundation by 1% -annual-chance shallow flooding (usually areas of ponding) AH where average depths are between one and three feet. Base Flood Elevations (BFEs)derived from detailed hydraulic analyses are shown in this zone. Areas with a 1% annual chance of flooding and a 26% chance of flooding over the life of a 30- A year mortgage. Because detailed analyses are not performed for such areas, no depths or base flood elevations are shown within these zones. Moderate risk areas within the 0.2-percent-annual-chance floodplain, areas of 1-percent-annual- 0.2% Annual chance flooding where average depths are less than 1 foot, areas of 1-percent-annual-chance Chance(shaded flooding where the contributing drainage area is less than 1 square mile, and areas protected Zone X) from the 1-percent-annual-chance flood by a levee. No BFEs or base flood depths are shown within these zones. (Zone X(shaded)is used on new and revised maps in place of Zone B.) Zone X Minimal risk areas outside the 1-percent and .2 percent-annual-chance floodplains. No BFEs or (unshaded) base flood depths are shown within these zones.Zone X(unshaded)is used on new and revised maps in place of Zone C. Approximately 95 percent of Collier County falls within the SFHA. Table 2.10 provides a summary of the County's total area (excluding open water) by flood zone on the 2024 effective DFIRM. Figure 2.12 shows the depth of flooding predicted from a 1% annual chance flood.

The Flood Insurance Study (FIS) defines the probability of flooding as flood events of a magnitude which are expected to be equaled or exceeded once on the average during any 100-year period (recurrence intervals). Considered another way, properties in a 100-year flood zone have a one percent probability of flooding during any given year. Mortgage lenders require that owners of properties with federally backed mortgages located within SFHAs purchase and maintain flood insurance policies on their properties. Consequently, newer and recently purchased properties in the community are typically insured against flooding. Storm surge affects areas along coastal and sound-side shorelines and further inland depending on the height of the surge. Figure 2.13 through Figure 2.17 show the estimated extent of surge by storm category according to NOAA's SLOSH model. Note that the SLOSH inundation results do not illustrate the storm surge that will occur from any given storm but rather the full potential extent of surge from all possible storms. However, SLOSH does not account for freshwater contribution, so it may underestimate total flooding that could results from a hurricane or tropical storm. • Impact: 3— Critical Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 38 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 Figure 2.13 - Category 1 Storm Surge Inundation A Immokalee Reservation y;. .I t I' Naples V ' , f • Ji s 4 s lir t ti . , Marco Island Vilf ,Y _11 1 ,ti'f'!lrsty ''4, Everglades 0 10 20 Miles Collier County, FL Storm Surge Inundation -Category 1 Date: 8/22;2021 Source: NOAA NAD 1983 State Plane Legend Prepared By: LE Projection: Florida East FIPS 0901(US Feet) Municipality Greater than 3 feet above ground ` I I Collier County Greater than 6 feet above ground �{�CoIIi('1 Counts Less than 3 feet above ground Greater than 9 feet above ground Source: NOAA National Storm Surge Hazard Maps Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 39 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 Figure 2.14 - Category 2 Storm Surge Inundation A Immokalee Reservation .1, .,if 1 Naples l,'4 1,s ••.�. - -*C4..cH,4t,0'..40.,::,.., _-',:... — .

Radar estimated 8-12 inches of rain fell over a 96-hour period in Marco Island. Strong onshore winds caused some minor tidal flooding of streets. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 44 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 September 29, 2003 — Very heavy rainfall fell across southwest Florida with radar estimated amount of 8 to 10 inches. Naples measured a record 6.99 inches. The resulting flood closed numerous roads in Collier County. Numerous cars were stalled. Houses and businesses, including a shopping mall, suffered minor flood damage. October 24, 2005 — Hurricane Wilma produced a maximum measured storm tide of 8 feet at the USGS tide gauge at the Turner River near Chokoloskee in southern Collier County, with a storm surge of 7 feet after subtracting a 1-foot astronomical tide. Significant damage to structures close to the water was observed in Chokoloskee, along with some washing out of part of the road leading to the town. A storm tide of 7 feet was estimated in Marco Island by Collier County Emergency Management, along with significant beach erosion. An NWS survey team estimated a storm tide of 4 feet in Everglades City based on debris line heights, with little structural damage. The NOS tide gauge in Naples recorded a maximum storm tide of 4.8 feet, with a storm surge of 3.8 feet after considering astronomical tide levels. July 16, 2008 — A low pressure area over the eastern Gulf of Mexico provided a moist southwest flow across South Florida, leading to heavy rain bands which set up along portions of the Southwest Florida gulf coast. A combination of 6 to 8 inches of rain over a short period of time and high tide caused flooding on Marco Island. Coconuts, palm fronds, and plastic bags also clogged storm drains at some locations, exacerbating the flooding. One towing company in Marco Island pulled out 35 to 40 cars alone. Water reached around 2 feet deep in some roadways and a few inches deep in some residences. Several roads were closed, including the main bridge connecting Marco Island to the Mainland. August 27, 2012 —Tropical Storm Isaac moved west-northwest across the Florida Straits south of the Florida Keys on August 26th. The northern edge of the wind and rain area associated with Isaac affected the South Florida peninsula throughout the day on the 26th. Severe beach erosion and coastal flooding occurred in Collier County on Monday, August 27th as the center of the storm moved into the Gulf of Mexico. A storm surge of 2.05 feet was measured at the Naples pier. Farther east along the coast, inundation depths as high as 3 feet were reported in Goodland and Everglades city. Inundation in the Naples area was about 1 foot. Most damage from coastal flooding was to infrastructure in Goodland and Everglades City areas and was estimated at $400,000. Severe beach erosion in the Naples and Marco Island areas led to damaged estimated at $5.6 million. August 4, 2014 — Intense rainfall associated with several bands of thunderstorms developed across much of the Naples area during the early afternoon. The band moved little between 1230 and 1500 EDT with the training of cells leading to copious rain amounts and severe street flooding in parts of Naples and Golden Gate. The first report stated that at least two feet of water was on roads near Airport Road and Mercantile Avenue with cars stalled out. The Collier County Sheriffs Office reported at around 1510 EDT that there was severe flooding and stalled vehicles from Collier Blvd. to Tamiami Trail with some roads closed. Rainfall totals included 7 inches at Naples Beach Hotel and Club with 6.73 inches at the Naples Municipal Airport. A trained spotter measured 4.21 inches in just under an hour in the area of Airport and Pine Ridge Roads. A few Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 45 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 businesses had water enter their structures, with one business estimating $12,000 in damage. Over 300 cars were towed from area streets due to stalling in deep water. Damage total indicated in this report is estimated and based on number of cars stalled as well as the damage to businesses from water intrusion. June 6, 2017 — A disturbance meandering across the Gulf of Mexico in combination with an upper-level system across the western Gulf of Mexico lead to nearly a week of heavy rainfall across South Florida. The heaviest rainfall fell in the corridor from Marco Island and southern Collier County northeast into Broward and southern Palm Beach counties. Many locations in this swath saw rainfall amounts in excess of 9 to 10 inches in a single day, and as high as almost 15 inches on the heaviest day, resulting in event totals of 15 to 20 inches in this area. This rainfall forced the closure of numerous roads across South Florida, especially in Collier and Broward counties where cars were trapped at times in the flood waters. Multiple streets in Marco Island were closed due to flooding, including Bald Eagle Road from Bayport to San Marco Roads and South Collier Boulevard near Winterberry Drive. Multiple cars were stalled in the middle of the road at the time of call. Marco Island had received 6 to 8 inches of rainfall in 6 to 12 hours, with a storm total of up to 15 inches over a 3-day period. Flooding across central and eastern Collier County resulted in the closure of Gulf Coast Visitor Center of Everglades National Park, in Everglades City, the Everglades City Airport, as well as Big Cypress National Preserve from June 6th through June 7th. Pictures received from the National Park Service show flooding of numerous access roads, trails, campgrounds, and bridges around the park, along with widespread areas of higher-than-normal water across the park, including flooding of normally dry forest. The Ochopee Post Office was flooding during the event, with water encroaching on Tamiami Trail (US 41) in places where it bisects the park. County Road 29 south of Tamiami Trail (US 41), which is used to access many of these areas, was also closed. August 25-27, 2017 —A slow moving tropical disturbance first moved west across South Florida, then northeast across Central and North Florida as a frontal boundary dropped into the state. This system would develop into Potential Tropical Cyclone 10 as it moved up the east coast, leaving a trailing trough that would bring additional heavy rainfall through Aug 29th. Significant flooding was reported over three days across Collier County, especially across the Naples area, with multiple roadways and intersections closed and standing water across the city. Flood waters entered a guest home along Trail Terrace, along with stranding vehicles along 10th Street south of 5th Avenue. As rain continued to fall, there was additional flooding along Logan Boulevard as well as Vanderbilt beach, with several sections impassable due to flooding. September 10, 2017—Major Hurricane Irma made landfall in Southwest Florida on Marco Island as a Category 3 hurricane around 3:30 PM EDT on September 10th. The storm traveled north through southwest Florida through the evening. Effects from Irma were felt across South Florida from September 9th through September 11th. Irma brought a significant storm surge on both coasts of South Florida and widespread rainfall and some flooding across the region. From the period between 8 AM September 9th and 8 AM September 11th, 8 to 15 inches of rain were measured over interior portions of Southwest Florida. This rainfall near the end of a wet summer led to significant flooding. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 46 1 7 F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 Storm surge across Collier County ranged from 4 to 8 feet, highest in the Chokoloskee and Everglades City area and lowest at the northern Collier County coast. Impacts were most severe in Chokoloskee, Everglades City, Plantation Island and Goodland where numerous homes were flooded and suffered major to catastrophic damage. Storm survey and data from USGS rapid deployment gauges indicated highest inundation from storm surge in Chokoloskee with up to 8 feet at waterfront, approximately 8 feet above Mean Higher High Water (MHHW), as well as 3-5 feet of inundation across the island. In Everglades City, there was a maximum 6 ft of inundation at the Everglades National Park Gulf Visitor Center, with 2-4 feet across the town and as high as 5 feet in a few areas. USGS high water mark data showed 1-2 feet of inundation as far inland as Tamiami Trail between State Road 29 and Collier-Seminole State Park. In Goodland, maximum storm tide was about 5.5 ft above MHHW, translating to between 5-6 ft of inundation at the waterfront and 3-4 ft across most of town. In Marco Island, storm tide was as high as 4.5 feet above MHHW, translating to between 2-4 ft inundation mainly over south and east parts of the island. Inland penetration was generally less than a half-mile. In Naples, NOS tide gauge at Naples Pier measured maximum storm tide of 5.14 feet above MHHW. Between 3-4 feet of inundation was noted along the Gulf beachfront within 1 block of beach, with less than a half-mile of inland penetration. Along Naples Bay, a maximum storm tide of about 2-3 ft above MHHW resulted in inundation of 1 to 2 feet on west side of bay just south of Tamiami Trail. This led to flooding of restaurants and shops. October 9, 2018 — The high October astronomical tides, King tides, in combination with the strong winds and minor surge from Hurricane Michael in the Gulf of Mexico brought a couple days of minor saltwater flooding along both the Atlantic and Gulf coasts of South Florida. NBC2 in Fort Myers reported water covering County Road 92A between Marco Island and Goodland. Videos and photos shared via social media shows abnormally high tide moving into and above sand dunes at Naples Beach as well as water over topping the seawall and approaching the backs of residences in the Isles of Capri neighborhood. May 18, 2020 — Tropical Storm Arthur, which was moving over the outer banks of North Carolina, was forecast to continue moving northeastward off the Mid-Atlantic coastline. At the same time, the tail of Arthur, basically a trough of low pressure, extended into the southeastern portion of the country. This also combined with a mid to upper-level area of low pressure moving into the Tennessee Valley and a trough of low pressure moving into the eastern Gulf of Mexico which allowed for a south southwesterly flow across South Florida. This allowed for the Gulf coast sea breeze to push inland as the east coast sea breeze remained pushed up against the east coast. This eventually led to the development of scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms across all of South Florida. The primary impacts with these storms were heavy rainfall and associated flooding, frequent lightning strikes, small hail, and gusty winds. September 13, 2021 — High pressure over the western Atlantic waters allowed for light easterly wind flow to set up across South Florida. With the light flow in place, waterspouts were able to develop across the Atlantic waters. In fact, one even moved onshore. The Atlantic Sea breeze also was able push westward across South FL while the Gulf Sea breeze remained pinned across the west coast metro areas. This allowed for strong showers and storms to develop during the afternoon hours, including over the Gulf and Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 47 1 6 F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 Atlantic waters due to outflow boundaries. Strong wind gusts, heavy rainfall, flooding, and frequent lightning were the main hazards. August 29, 2023—The center of Hurricane Idalia passed about 180 miles west of Naples as a Category 2 moving north over the eastern Gulf of Mexico. The outermost edge of Idalia's tropical storm force wind field skirted the SW Florida Gulf coast, and a few outer rain bands moved through South Florida on August 29th and 30th bringing brief tropical storm force wind gusts. A storm surge of about 3 feet, combined with high astronomical tides, led to minor coastal flooding in Collier County during the high tide cycles on August 29th and 30th. PROBABILITY OF FUTURE OCCURRENCE By definition of the 100-year flood event, SFHAs are defined as those areas that will be inundated by the flood event having a 1-percent chance of being equaled or exceeded in any given year. Properties located in these areas have a 26 percent chance of flooding over the life of a 30-year mortgage. The 500-year flood area is defined as those areas that will be inundated by the flood event having a 0.2-percent chance of being equaled or exceeded in any given year; it is not the flood that will occur once every 500 years. While exposure to flood hazards vary across jurisdictions, all jurisdictions have at least some area of land in FEMA flood hazard areas. Additionally, there is risk of localized and stormwater flooding as well as severe wind-driven surge in areas outside the SFHA and at different intervals than the 1% annual chance flood. Based on these considerations as well as the 48 flood-related events recorded by NCEI over the last 24 years, the probability of flooding is considered highly likely (100% annual probability) for all jurisdictions. • Probability: 4 — Highly Likely CLIMATE CHANGE The potential for flooding can change and increase. Various land use changes and changes to land surface can result in changes to the floodplain and flood prone areas. For example, an increase in impervious surface can create localized flooding problems inside and outside of natural floodplains by altering or confining natural drainage channels. These changes are often created by human activity. However, changes in precipitation frequency and intensity can also result in changes to flood magnitudes and probabilities. For example, what we currently define as the 1-percent-annual-chance flood may occur more frequently in the future. Per the Fifth National Climate Assessment, frequency and intensity of heavy precipitation events is expected to increase across the country. Additionally, increased levels of rainfall, temperatures, sea level rise, and land cover change can exacerbate flood risks and are expected to occur throughout the southeast. Therefore, with more rainfall falling in more intense incidents, the region may experience more frequent flash flooding. Increased flooding may also result from more intense tropical cyclone; researchers have noted the occurrence of more intense storms bringing greater rainfall totals, a trend that is expected to continue as ocean and air temperatures rise. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 48 V6 F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT METHODOLOGIES AND ASSUMPTIONS WSP conducted a Level 2 Hazus Flood Simulation by leveraging the 1%-annual-chance flood boundaries from the effective FEMA Flood Insurance Study. Base Flood Elevations were converted to a depth raster using LiDAR topography obtained from USGS. WSP also leveraged the 2024 parcel data provided by Collier County for the loss determination. Parcels that intersected the SFHA were included for analysis. Losses were derived in Hazus using USACE depth damage functions, shown in Table 2.13. Flood damage is directly related to the depth of flooding by the application of a depth damage curve. In applying the curve, a specific depth of water translates to a specific percentage of damage to the structure, which translates to the same percentage of the structure's replacement value. Figure 2.12 depicts the depth of flooding that can be expected within the Collier County planning area during the 100-year flood event.

Therefore, based on local knowledge and Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 49 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 County input, WSP made the assumption that 90% of the foundations in Collier County are slab on grade, 5% are crawl space and 5% are elevated. Number of stories was also not provided so WSP assumed 50% of buildings are one-story and 50% are two-story. Loss numbers are based on improved parcel values listed in the 2024 parcel data from Collier County. Content value estimations are based on Hazus methodologies of estimating value as a percent of improved structure values by property type. Table 2.14 shows the breakdown of the different property types and their estimated content replacement value percentages. Table 2.14 — Content Replacement Factors Property Type Content Replacement Values Residential 50% Commercial 100% Educational 100% Government 100% Religious 100% Industrial/Agriculture 150% Source: Hazus PEOPLE Flood events pose many threats to public health and safety. While such problems are often not reported, three general types of health hazards accompany floods: physical hazards from the water itself, environmental hazards in the aftermath of the flood, and long-term psychological hazards. These common health and safety hazards are detailed below: • Contaminated water: Floodwaters carry anything that was on the ground that the upstream runoff picked up, including dirt, oil, animal waste, and lawn, farm and industrial chemicals. Pastures and areas where farm animals are kept or where their wastes are stored can contribute polluted waters to the receiving streams. Floodwaters also saturate the ground, which leads to infiltration into sanitary sewer lines, or wastewater treatment plants may be flooded or over loaded. When wastewater treatment plants are flooded, there is nowhere for the sewage to flow. Infiltration and lack of treatment can lead to overloaded sewer lines that can back up into low-lying areas and homes. Even when it is diluted by flood waters, raw sewage can be a breeding ground for bacteria such as E.coli and other disease causing agents. Private sewer and septic systems may also introduce pollutants into floodwaters. Private wells may become contaminated through infiltration of polluted water. Given the many potential sources of contamination, direct or indirect contact with floodwaters poses a significant health risk for contraction of infectious disease. • Debris: During a flood, debris carried by floodwaters can cause physical injury from impact. During the recovery process, people may often need to clear debris out of their properties but may encounter dangers such as sharp materials or rusty nails that pose a risk of tetanus. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 50 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 • Unsafe food: If floodwaters come into contact with food items, that food may no longer be safe for consumption due to the potential contaminants in the floodwaters. Foods stored in cardboard, plastic bags, jars, bottles, and paper packaging may all be subject to contamination. Even if foods don't come into direct contact with floodwaters, the introduction of mold and mildew from flooding may cause foods to spoil faster. Additionally, power outages may cause refrigerated and frozen foods to spoil. • Mosquitos and animals: After most of the water has receded, stagnant pools can become breeding grounds for mosquitoes, which may carry infectious diseases such as West Nile virus or St. Louis encephalitis. Wild animals such as snakes or rodents may carried by floodwaters or lose their habitat and seek shelter in buildings. Snakes may also be swimming in floodwaters seeking higher ground. People may be at risk for bites or disease if they come in contact with these animals or animal carcasses. • Mold and mildew: Areas of a building that were exposed to excessive moisture can breed mold and mildew. Molds can start to grow in only 24 to 48 hours and will continue to grow without steps to dry out and disinfect the affected surface. Some molds are allergens, while others can produce harmful mycotoxins. Exposure to mold can cause respiratory problems; nasal and sinus congestion; eye, nose, and throat irritation; aches and pains; and effects on the nervous system. Infants, children, immunocompromised individuals, elderly adults, pregnant women, and individuals with respiratory conditions are all at higher risk. • Reentering a flooded building: Health hazards may occur when heating ducts in a forced air system are not properly cleaned after inundation. When the furnace or air conditioner is turned on, the sediments left in the ducts are circulated throughout the building and breathed in by the occupants. If the public water systems lose pressure, public water supplies may be contaminated, and a boil order may be issued to protect people and animals from contaminated water. • Mental stress: Long-term psychological impacts can result after having been through a flood and seeing one's home damaged and personal belongings destroyed. The cost and labor needed to repair a flood-damaged home can also put a severe strain on people, especially individuals who were unprepared and uninsured. There is also a long-term problem for those who know that their homes can be flooded again. The resulting stress on floodplain residents takes its toll in the form of aggravated physical and mental health problems. Floods can also result in fatalities. Individuals face high risk when driving through flooded streets. According to NCEI records, there have been three deaths in Collier County caused by flood events. Population at risk to flood was estimated based on the vulnerability of residential property. Counts of residential buildings at risk were multiplied by a household factor for each jurisdiction, based on the 2018-2022 American Community Survey's average household size. The resulting estimates of population at risk are shown in Table 2.15. Overall, an estimated 170,009 people live in high-risk flood zones.

Non-English speakers may face challenges receiving real-time flood alerts or evacuation instructions. PROPERTY Residential, commercial, and public buildings, as well as critical infrastructure such as transportation, water, energy, and communication systems may be damaged or destroyed by flood waters. The increased number of flood days and general encroachment of shoreline associated with sea level rise, discussed in Section 2.5.7, will likely cause additional flood-related property damage in the future, although it is unclear exactly what this will look like. Additionally, rising seas, and associated increased flood days, can overwhelm and undermine the effectiveness of stormwater drainage system and other infrastructure. Other future changes may also affect vulnerability to flooding. Increased development in high-risk areas would directly increase exposure and risk. Increased impervious surface in the floodplain or throughout a watershed can affect how flooding occurs and may also increase risk. • Land Use/Development Trends: o Increased urbanization and impervious surfaces contributing to stormwater runoff and localized flooding. WSP Collier County,FL September 2024 WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment Page 52 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 o Development of residential and commercial buildings near low-lying areas and natural water drainage paths. o Expansion of floodplain boundaries due to new developments without sufficient mitigation measures. o Ongoing construction of stormwater management infrastructure and retrofits in high-risk areas. Table 2.16 details the estimated losses for the 1`)/0-annual-chance flood event, calculated using the methodology and assumptions described above. The total damage estimate value is based on damages to the total of improved building value and contents value. Land value is not included in any of the loss estimates as generally land is not subject to loss from floods.

The loss ratio is the loss estimate divided by the total potential exposure (i.e., total of improved and contents value for all buildings located within the SFHA) and displayed as a percentage of loss. FEMA considers loss ratios greater than 10% to be significant and an indicator a community may have more difficulties recovering from a flood. Loss ratios for all participating jurisdictions are at or above 10%. Therefore, in the event of a flood with a magnitude of the 1%-annual-chance event or greater, the planning area would face extreme difficulty in recovery. Even smaller, more probable floods may also result in the county having difficulty recovering. Estimated loss ratios are greatest in Seminole Tribe Immokalee Reservation and Everglades City; therefore, these jurisdictions may face the greatest potential impacts from a flood event. Across the planning area there are 257 critical facilities located in the AE, A, and AH zones and 4 facilities located in the VE zone which may be at risk to damages. Table 2.17 details these critical facilities at risk to flooding by type. Table 2.18 lists each critical facility at risk to flood and the flood zone and estimated 100-year flood depth at that location.

A severe repetitive loss property is classified as such if it has four or more separate claim payments of more than $5,000 each (including building and contents payments) or two or more separate claim payments (building only)where the total of the payments exceeds the current value of the property. An analysis of repetitive loss was completed to examine repetitive losses within the planning area. According to 2023 and 2024 NFIP records, there are a total of 525 repetitive loss properties within the Collier County planning area including 46 mitigated properties and 479 unmitigated properties. Of the unmitigated properties, 415 (86%)are insured. Overall, approximately 88% of all repetitive loss properties in the County are residential, and 11 are non-residential. There are 26 properties on the list classified as severe repetitive loss properties.

RL structures are defined as properties with two or more flood insurance claims of at least $1,000 each within a 10-year period, while SRL properties meet more stringent criteria, with at least four claims exceeding $5,000 each or two claims that exceed the structure's value. Data Overview The National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) maintains records of RL and SRL structures across all jurisdictions in Collier County. As of the latest data collection in 2024, the following RL and SRL data has been identified: The table 2.30 below provides the estimated numbers and types of RL and SRL structures across each jurisdiction in Collier County, based on NFIP records: Table 2.30 Jurisdictional Breakdown of RL&SRL Structures Other(e.g., Total RL Total SRL Residential Commercial critical Claims Paid(RL) Claims Paid Jurisdiction Structures Structures Structures Structures (SRL) facilities) Unincorporated 442 51 416 26 0 $70,164,770 $15,913,065 Collier County' Naples 147 15 136 11 0 $47,555,087 $9,745,096 Marco Island 37 0 34 3 0 $2,205,061.00 $0 Everglades City 8 1 9 0 0 $4,461,209 $291,652 TOTALS 568 67 595 40 0 $124,386,127.00 $25,949,813.00 *Note: Unincorporated Collier County includes the following jurisdictions: Collier County Government, Collier County Public Schools, Collier Mosquito Control District, North Collier Fire Control District, Greater Naples Fire Rescue District, Immokalee Fire Control District, Naples Airport Authority, Port of the Isles, and South Florida Water Management District. Vulnerability and Risk Assessment (Repetitive Loss & Severe Repetitive Loss) RL and SRL structures represent areas of persistent flood vulnerability and a significant financial burden for the NFIP. These properties are often located in Special Flood Hazard Areas (SFHAs) and are subject to repetitive flood damage due to their location and lack of sufficient mitigation measures. To address these vulnerabilities, mitigation strategies are essential, including: 1 . Acquisition and Buyout Programs: Targeting RL and SRL structures for voluntary buyouts to permanently remove them from high-risk areas. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 67 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 2. Elevation Projects: Elevating structures above the Base Flood Elevation (BFE) to reduce future flood risks. 3. Floodproofing: Implementing wet or dry floodproofing measures, especially for commercial properties. 4. Community Engagement: Educating property owners on risk reduction options and available financial incentives. 5. Infrastructure Upgrades: Enhancing drainage systems in areas with high concentrations of RL and SRL properties. Future Goals The Collier County LMS Working Group will continue to work with FEMA and NFIP to update RL and SRL data annually. Additionally, mitigation projects addressing these structures will be prioritized to reduce future claims, increase community resilience, and enhance eligibility for federal and state funding opportunities.

Changes in flood risk may occur due to climate change and sea level rise, discussed in more detail in Section 2.5.7. The vulnerability assessment in Section 2.5.7 also describes the potential impact of future flooding by presenting property exposure to areas that could be impacted by sea level rise. ENVIRONMENT During a flood event, chemicals and other hazardous substances may end up contaminating local water bodies. Flooding kills animals and in general disrupts the ecosystem. Snakes and insects may also make their way to the flooded areas. Floods can also cause significant erosion, which can alter streambanks and deposit sediment, changing the flow of streams and rivers and potentially reducing the drainage capacity of those waterbodies. CONSEQUENCE ANALYSIS Table 2.31 summarizes the potential detrimental consequences of flood. Table 2.31 — Consequence Analysis - Flood Category Consequences Public Localized impact expected to be severe for incident areas and moderate to light for other adversely affected areas. Responders First responders are at risk when attempting to rescue people from their homes. They are subject to the same health hazards as the public. Flood waters may prevent access to areas in need of response or the flood may prevent access to the critical facilities themselves which may prolong response time. Damage to personnel will generally be localized to those in the flood areas at the time of the incident and is expected to be limited. Continuity of Operations Floods can severely disrupt normal operations, especially when there is a loss of (including Continued power. Damage to facilities in the affected area may require temporary relocation of Delivery of Services) some operations. Localized disruption of roads,facilities, and/or utilities caused by incident may postpone delivery of some services. Property, Facilities and Buildings and infrastructure, including transportation and utility infrastructure, may be Infrastructure damaged or destroyed. Impacts are expected to be localized to the area of the incident. Severe damage is possible. Environment Chemicals and other hazardous substances may contaminate local water bodies. Wildlife and livestock deaths possible.The localized impact is expected to be severe for incident areas and moderate to light for other areas affected by the flood or HazMat spills. Economic Condition of the Local economy and finances will be adversely affected, possibly for an extended Jurisdiction period. During floods (especially flash floods), roads, bridges,farms, houses and automobiles are destroyed. Additionally,the local government must deploy firemen, police and other emergency response personnel and equipment to help the affected area. It may take years for the affected communities to be re-built and business to return to normal. Public Confidence in the Ability to respond and recover may be questioned and challenged if planning, Jurisdiction's Governance response, and recovery are not timely and effective. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 70 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 HAZARD SUMMARY BY JURISDICTION The following table summarizes flood hazard risk by jurisdiction. Flood risk due to storm surge, high tide flooding, flash flooding, and stormwater flooding exists across the entire county. All participating jurisdictions have over 86% of their area in the SFHA and thus have a high degree of exposure to flooding; given that other sources of flooding and other levels of flooding may occur beyond these areas, the spatial extent was considered large for all jurisdictions. Impact ratings were based upon Hazus loss estimates as well as the overall risk of death or injury; all jurisdictions were rated with an impact of critical. All communities also face a uniform probability of flooding.

TROPICAL CYCLONES HAZARD DESCRIPTION Hurricanes and tropical storms are classified as cyclones and defined as any closed circulation developing around a low-pressure center in which the winds rotate counterclockwise in the Northern Hemisphere (or clockwise in the Southern Hemisphere) and whose diameter averages 10 to 30 miles across. A tropical cyclone refers to any such circulation that develops over tropical waters. Tropical cyclones act as a "safety-valve," limiting the continued build-up of heat and energy in tropical regions by maintaining the atmospheric heat and moisture balance between the tropics and the pole-ward latitudes. The primary damaging forces associated with these storms are high-level sustained winds, heavy precipitation, and tornadoes. The key energy source for a tropical cyclone is the release of latent heat from the condensation of warm water. Their formation requires a low-pressure disturbance, warm sea surface temperature, rotational force from the spinning of the earth, and the absence of wind shear in the lowest 50,000 feet of the atmosphere. Most hurricanes and tropical storms form in the Atlantic Ocean, Caribbean Sea, and Gulf of Mexico during the official Atlantic hurricane season, which encompasses the months of June through November. The peak of the Atlantic hurricane season is in early to mid-September and the average number of storms that reach hurricane intensity per year in the Atlantic basin is about six. While hurricanes pose the greatest threat to life and property, tropical storms and depressions also can be devastating. A tropical disturbance can grow to a more intense Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 71 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 stage through an increase in sustained wind speeds. The progression of a tropical disturbance is described below. • Tropical Depression: A tropical cyclone with maximum sustained winds of 38 mph (33 knots) or less. • Tropical Storm: A tropical cyclone with maximum sustained winds of 39 to 73 mph (34 to 63 knots). • Hurricane: A tropical cyclone with maximum sustained winds of 74 mph (64 knots) or higher. In the western North Pacific, hurricanes are called typhoons; similar storms in the Indian Ocean and South Pacific Ocean are called cyclones. • Major Hurricane: A tropical cyclone with maximum sustained winds of 111 mph (96 knots) or higher, corresponding to a Category 3, 4 or 5 on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale. As an incipient hurricane develops, barometric pressure (measured in millibars or inches) at its center falls and winds increase. If the atmospheric and oceanic conditions are favorable, it can intensify into a tropical depression. When maximum sustained winds reach or exceed 39 miles per hour, the system is designated a tropical storm, given a name, and is monitored by the National Hurricane Center in Miami, Florida. When sustained winds reach or exceed 74 miles per hour the storm is deemed a hurricane. Hurricanes are given a classification based on the Saffir-Simpson Scale; this scale is reproduced in Table 2.32. The greatest potential for loss of life related to a hurricane is from the storm surge. Storm surge is water that is pushed toward the shore by the force of the winds swirling around the storm as shown in Figure 2.19. This advancing surge combines with the normal tides to create the hurricane storm tide, which can increase the mean water level to heights impacting roads, homes and other critical infrastructure. In addition, wind driven waves are superimposed on the storm tide. This rise in water level can cause severe flooding in coastal areas, particularly when the storm tide coincides with the normal high tides. The maximum potential storm surge for a location depends on several different factors. Storm surge is a very complex phenomenon because it is sensitive to the slightest changes in storm intensity, forward speed, size (radius of maximum winds-RMW), angle of approach to the coast, central pressure (minimal contribution in comparison to the wind), and the shape and characteristics of coastal features such as bays and estuaries. Other factors which can impact storm surge are the width and slope of the continental shelf and the depth of the ocean bottom. A narrow shelf, or one that drops steeply from the shoreline and subsequently produces deep water close to the shoreline, tends to produce a lower surge but higher and more powerful storm waves. A shallow slope, as is found off the coast of Collier County, will produce a greater storm surge than a steep shelf.

' - tr "Pressure-driven Water on ocean-side/ flows away without raising sea level much Source: NOAA/The COMET Program Damage during hurricanes may also result from inland flooding from associated heavy rainfall. Like hurricanes, nor'easters are ocean storms capable of causing substantial damage to coastal areas in the Eastern United States due to their strong winds and heavy surf. Nor'easters are named for the winds that blow in from the northeast and drive the storm up the East Coast along the Gulf Stream. They are caused by the interaction of the jet stream with horizontal temperature gradients and generally occur during the fall and winter months when moisture and cold air are plentiful. Nor'easters are known for dumping heavy amounts of rain and snow, producing hurricane-force winds, and creating high surf that causes severe beach erosion and coastal flooding. There are two main components to a nor'easter: (1) a Gulf Stream low- pressure system (counter-clockwise winds) generated off the southeastern U.S. coast, gathering warm air and moisture from the Atlantic, and pulled up the East Coast by strong northeasterly winds at the leading edge of the storm; and (2) an Arctic high-pressure system (clockwise winds) which meets the low-pressure system with cold, arctic air blowing down from Canada. When the two systems collide, the moisture and cold air produce a mix of precipitation and can produce dangerously high winds and heavy seas. As the low-pressure system deepens, the intensity of the winds and waves increases and can cause serious damage to coastal areas as the storm moves northeast. • Warning Time: 1 — More than 24 hours • Duration: 3 — Less than 1 week LOCATION Hurricanes and tropical storms can occur anywhere within the Collier County planning area. While coastal areas are most vulnerable to hurricanes, their wind and rain impacts Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 73 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 can be felt hundreds of miles inland. Storm surge impacts are more limited, affecting areas along coastal and estuarine shorelines and reaching further inland depending on the height of the surge. All of Collier County and its jurisdictions are vulnerable to hurricane and tropical storm surge, but to varying degrees, with areas closer to the coast and water bodies that drain into the coast facing greater risk. Figure 2.20 shows the estimated extent of surge by storm category according to NOAA Sea, Lake, and Overland Surges from Hurricanes (SLOSH) data. The SLOSH model is a computerized numerical model developed by the NWS to estimate storm surge heights resulting from historical, hypothetical, or predicted hurricanes by considering the atmospheric pressure, size, forward speed, and track data. The model creates outputs for all different storm simulations from all points of the compass. Each direction has a MEOW (maximum envelope of water) for each category of storm (1-5), and all directions combined result in a MOMs (maximum of maximums) set of data. Note that the MOM does not illustrate the storm surge that will occur from any given storm but rather the full potential extent of surge from all possible storms. As shown in these maps, Collier County is vulnerable to storm surge impacts from all storm categories. Marco Island, Everglades City, and much of Naples are likely to be impacted from storms rated as Category 1 and greater. • Spatial Extent: 4 — Large Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 74 1 6 F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 Figure 2.20 — Storm Surge Inundation for All Categories A r 1 Immokalee Reservation 41 Ir Naples 1 II t et.• 1 ,< s `lam Marco Island 11� A1° ,..

If the atmospheric and oceanic conditions are favorable, it can intensify into a tropical depression. When maximum sustained winds reach or exceed 39 miles per hour, the system is designated a tropical storm, given a name, and is closely monitored by the National Hurricane Center in Miami, Florida. When sustained winds reach or exceed 74 miles per hour the storm is deemed a hurricane. Hurricane intensity is further classified by the Saffir-Simpson Scale (Table 2.32), which rates hurricane intensity on a scale of 1 to 5, with 5 being the most intense. Table 2.32 — Saffir-Simpson Scale Maximum Sustained Category Types of Damage Wind Speed (MPH) Very dangerous winds will produce some damage;Well-constructed frame homes could have damage to roof, shingles, vinyl siding and gutters. Large 1 74-95 branches of trees will snap, and shallowly rooted trees may be toppled. Extensive damage to power lines and poles likely will result in power outages that could last a few to several days. Extremely dangerous winds will cause extensive damage;Well-constructed frame homes could sustain major roof and siding damage. Many shallowly 2 96-110 rooted trees will be snapped or uprooted and block numerous roads. Near- total power loss is expected with outages that could last from several days to weeks. Devastating damage will occur;Well-built framed homes may incur major 111-129 damage or removal of roof decking and gable ends. Many trees will be 3snapped or uprooted, blocking numerous roads. Electricity and water will be unavailable for several days to weeks after the storm passes. Catastrophic damage will occur;Well-built framed homes can sustain severe damage with loss of most of the roof structure and/or some exterior 130-156 walls. Most trees will be snapped or uprooted, and power poles downed. Fallen trees and power poles will isolate residential areas. Power outages will last weeks to possibly months. Most of the area will be uninhabitable for weeks or months. Catastrophic damage will occur;A high percentage of framed homes will be destroyed,with total roof failure and wall collapse. Fallen trees and 157+ power poles will isolate residential areas. Power outages will last for weeks to possibly months. Most of the area will be uninhabitable for weeks or months. Source: National Hurricane Center The Saffir-Simpson Scale categorizes hurricane intensity linearly based upon maximum sustained winds and barometric pressure, which are combined to estimate potential damage Categories 3, 4, and 5 are classified as "major" hurricanes and, while hurricanes within this range comprise only 20 percent of total tropical cyclone landfalls, they account for over 70 percent of the damage in the United States. Table 2.33 describes the damage that could be expected for each category of hurricane. Damage during hurricanes may also result from spawned tornadoes, storm surge, and inland flooding associated with heavy rainfall that usually accompanies these storms.

NCEI records hurricane and tropical Collier County,FL WSp Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 80 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 storm events across the region by county and zone; therefore, one event that impacts multiple jurisdictions may be recorded multiple times. During the 24-year period from 2000 through 2023, NCEI records 16 hurricane and tropical storm reports across 11 separate days. These events are summarized in Table 2.35. This table only represents those events reported to NCEI as a hurricane or tropical storm. Where property damage estimates were broken out by type, NCEI reports only the value of wind-related damages. While there are no records for wind related damages due to Hurricane Irma and storm surge in the NCEI database, it had significant impact on the County. Following the storm, it was reported that $320 million in damages occurred in unincorporated areas of the County alone, a number which is likely much higher when considering Naples, Marco Island, and Everglades City all experienced damage as well. In total, 50 Florida counties were included in the disaster declaration and eligible for individual assistance. FEMA has approved over$1 billion individual and household program dollars across these counties.

It moved northeast, briefly intensified to hurricane strength, then moved ashore in the Big Bend area of Florida as a tropical storm late on September 17th. The outer fringes of Gordon moved across south Florida, producing 3-6 inches of rain, numerous funnel clouds and waterspouts, and at least three tornadoes. September 13, 2001 —Tropical storm Gabrielle formed in the eastern Gulf of Mexico from a trough of low pressure that had lingered over Florida since September 8. Gabrielle moved east northeast at 7 to 12 mph with the center crossing the Florida west coast near Venice at noon on September 14. The minimum central pressure in Collier County was 999.4 mb at Naples. Maximum winds in Collier County were at Everglades City with sustained winds of 44 knots and peak gusts of 61 knots. Storm surge values of 3 to 5 feet were observed along much of the Collier County coast which caused some coastal flooding and minor to moderate beach erosion. The estimate to repair the beach erosion was $3 million. Flooding by rainfall of 2 to 5 inches along with the storm surge damaged 60 to 70 residences and 12,500 customers lost electrical power. August 13, 2004— Early on August 13, Hurricane Charley intensified to Category 4 status and turned to a north-northeast direction before making landfall near Port Charlotte around 3 PM EDT. The first outer rain band, with wind gusts estimated up to 60 mph, impacted the south Florida Peninsula between midnight and 2 AM EDT. In Collier County, a peak wind gust of 84 mph was measured at 2:50 PM EDT on the top of a condominium at Vanderbilt Beach before the equipment failed. The Naples ASOS equipment failed well before the maximum winds or minimum pressure occurred. Wind gusts at La Belle were estimated at 80 mph. Rainfall in most locations in Collier County was around two inches with an unofficial amount of 7.5 inches reported in North Naples. Radar local rainfall estimates of 8 to 10 inches were made in North Naples. Flooding was mostly minimal. The highest Storm Tide along the southwest Florida Coast was estimated at three feet near Wiggins Pass with heights of one to two feet from Naples to Marco Island to Everglades City. Tidal flooding was minimal. Lake Okeechobee levels increased up to three feet above normal along the north and northeast shores. Hurricane wind damage was greatest in North Naples and Vanderbilt Beach with numerous power poles, trees and signs blown down, and a few roofs damaged. Damage also occurred to screened porches throughout the Naples-Marco Island metropolitan areas. Damage occurred to Gulf-side structures along most of the coastline but beach erosion was mostly minor. Four persons in Naples suffered minor injuries when their vehicle was touched by a downed power line during the storm. Three persons in Collier County died from indirect causes after the hurricane. An estimated 130,000 customers in Collier County lost power. About 2,500 people took refuge in six shelters. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 82 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 October 24, 2005 — Wilma was a classic October hurricane which struck South Florida as a Category 3 hurricane on October 24th, 2005. The hurricane made landfall as a category 3 storm shortly before 7 AM Monday, October 24th on the southwest Florida coast between Everglades City and Cape Romano with maximum sustained winds of 125 mph and an estimated minimum central pressure of 950 mb. Wilma exhibited a very large 55- to 65-mile-wide eye while crossing the state, and the eye covered large portions of South Florida, including the eastern two-thirds of Collier County. Sustained hurricane force winds (74 mph or greater) were observed over most areas. The highest recorded gusts were in the 100-120 mph range. Rainfall amounts across South Florida generally ranged from 2 to 4 inches across southern sections of the peninsula to 4 to 6 inches across western Collier County and around Lake Okeechobee. A storm surge of around 8 feet was estimated in Marco Island, with 4 feet in Everglades City. One confirmed tornado was observed in rural Collier County around 2:30 AM on the 24th, moving rapidly northwest from the intersection of U.S. 41 and State Road 29 to the town of Copeland three miles to the north. An F1 intensity was assigned to the tornado as it caused snapped power poles, uprooted large trees, and significantly damaged mobile homes. In Collier, winds caused one direct fatality. While no monetary impacts were reported in NCEI for Collier County, total damage estimates across South Florida range from $9 to $12 billion. Damage was widespread, with large trees and power lines down virtually everywhere, causing widespread power outages. Structural damage was heaviest in Broward and Palm Beach counties where roof damage and downed or split power poles were noted in some areas. High-rise buildings suffered considerable damage, mainly in the form of broken windows. This was observed mainly along the southeast metro areas, but also in Naples, which underscores the higher wind speeds with height commonly observed in hurricanes. August 18, 2008 - The center of Tropical Storm Fay moved across Key West early in the evening of the 18th and into the mainland of South Florida at Cape Romano shortly before 5 AM on the 19th. Maximum sustained winds were estimated to be around 52 knots (60 MPH) at landfall, however a maximum wind gust of 69 knots (79 MPH) was recorded on a South Florida Water Management gauge on Lake Okeechobee as the storm passed. Wind gusts to tropical storm force were felt area-wide, with sustained tropical storm force winds experienced over portions Collier County. Wind damage was most significant in the areas affected by tropical storm force sustained winds, primarily around Lake Okeechobee and interior sections of southwest Florida, with only minor wind damage elsewhere. Rainfall ranged 6-8 inches in southwest Florida. The height of the storm tide was around 5 feet in the Everglades City and Chokoloskee areas. Minimal storm surge was noted elsewhere. All the associated effects of Tropical Storm Fay in South Florida resulted in 1 fatality, 4 injuries, and $3.949 million in property damage. In Collier County, total wind damages were reported to be $20,000 and total surge damages at $60,000. August 26, 2012 — The center of Tropical Storm Isaac moved over the Florida Straits south of the Florida Keys on Sunday, August 26th, passing just south of Key West. Rain bands and winds on the north side of the circulation of Isaac affected Southeast Florida throughout the day of the 26th and part of the 27th. Maximum storm tide values were observed at 4.9 feet at Naples, with estimates of 5 to 7 feet along the southern Collier County coast from Goodland to Everglades City. Highest estimated inundation values of Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 83 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 up to 3 feet above ground level were noted in Goodland and Everglades City. Major beach erosion was also observed along the Collier County beaches. Flooding caused by storm tides along the coast in Collier County resulted in about $400,000 in damage. Damage from beach erosion in Collier and Broward counties was estimated at $6 million. September 10, 2017—Major Hurricane Irma made landfall in Southwest Florida on Marco Island as a Category 3 hurricane around 330 PM EDT on September 10th. The strength and size of Hurricane Irma allowed for impacts to be felt across all of South Florida. Irma brought widespread wind damage, heavy rainfall and storm surge to all areas. Hurricane- force sustained wind were measured in much of Collier County. Gusts to hurricane force were felt over all South Florida, with the maximum measured wind gust of 142 mph in Naples. Widespread tree damage and some structural damage occurred across all of South Florida, with most structural damage on the minor side. Hurricane Irma brought widespread rainfall and some flooding across the region. From the period between 8 AM EDT September 9th and 8 AM EDT September 11th, 8 to 15 inches of rain were measured over interior portions of Southwest Florida. This rainfall near the end of a wet summer led to significant flooding over these areas. 5 to 10 inches of rain were noted elsewhere across South Florida, with areas of minor to moderate flooding. $222.5 million in damage came in from Collier County. Details about storm surge from Hurricane Irma can be found in section. September 28, 2022 — A tropical depression formed in the central Caribbean Sea on September 23rd, then was upgraded to Tropical Storm Ian at 11 PM on September 23rd. Ian moved westward, then turned northwest on September 25th, passing just west of Jamaica and near the Cayman Islands. Ian became a hurricane on Monday, September 26th south of western Cuba, then moved north and made landfall in Pinar Del Rio Province, Cuba early on Tuesday, September 27th as a Category 3 hurricane with maximum sustained winds of 125 mph. Ian moved into the SE Gulf of Mexico around midday on Tuesday, September 27th, then moved over Dry Tortugas as a Category 3 hurricane later that evening. Ian strengthened over the SE Gulf of Mexico as it approached Southwest Florida, becoming a Category 4 hurricane at 7 AM on Wednesday, September 28th with maximum sustained winds of 155 mph and a lowest central pressure of 936 mb. Ian produced a catastrophic storm surge across coastal sections of SW Florida. Storm surge from surveys was estimated in the 8-11 ft range above MHHW along the Gulf beaches from Naples north to Barefoot Beach, and extending inland about 1 mile. Storm surge of 4-7 ft above MHHW was surveyed in the Naples Bay area and extending north to the Naples Airport area, as well as in North Naples near the Cocohatchee River. The vast majority of damage was likely caused by the significant to major storm surge in Collier County. Wind gusts as high as 110 mph were measured in the Naples area at heights well above the standard surface elevation of 33 feet. Sustained winds in the 70-75 mph range likely occurred in NW Collier County as well as far western sections of Hendry and Glades counties. A total of 13 reported tornadoes were spawned by Ian on Tuesday, September 27th and early on Wednesday, September 28th as it was approaching the SW Florida coast, the strongest being an EF- 2 in the Delray Beach area of Palm Beach County. PROBABILITY OF FUTURE OCCURANCE Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 84 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 In the 24-year period from 2000 through 2023, 11 hurricanes and tropical storms have impacted Collier County, which equates to a 45 percent annual probability of hurricane winds impacting the planning area in any given year. This probability does not account for impacts from hurricane rains or storm surge, which may also be severe. The probability of a hurricane or tropical storm impacting Collier County is likely. Figure 2.22 shows, for any location, the chance of a hurricane or tropical storm affecting the area sometime during the Atlantic hurricane season. The figure was created by the NOAA's Hurricane Research Division, using data from 1944 to 1999. The figure shows the number of times a storm or hurricane was located within approximately 100 miles (165 kilometers) of a given spot in the Atlantic basin Figure 2.22 — Empirical Probability of a Named Hurricane or Tropical Storm SON 12 m 24- t• ::: ... � J54 -NS--- \ 3U �q 12 /' / / 4 2 30N -� azf_1�� © �a2 JJ 2a.. _ 5 _... 25N ( C'�" / ae'G -sT (l�`i6 f � 9 18 �-f �3G 1 q � 20N � �?a,: �7�a � ‘. 10N i 126 5N 111111111M111111111 '. 90W AOW 70W 60W 5051 40W 30W 20W - 6 17 18 74 31) 36 47 48 84 Fib Source: National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Hurricane Research Division Florida has over 8,000 miles of coastline that often gets hit by direct storms. The state is very vulnerable to the impacts of hurricanes and tropical storms as detailed in this section. Substantial hurricane damage is typically most likely to be expected in the coastal counties of the state; however, hurricane and tropical storm-force winds have significantly impacted areas far inland. • Probability: 3 — Likely CLIMATE CHANGE Collier County's coastal location makes it a prime target for hurricane landfalls and changing climate and weather conditions may increase the number and frequency of future hurricane events. Hurricanes and other coastal storms may result in increased flooding, injuries, deaths, and extreme property loss. According to the US Government Accountability Office, national storm losses from changing frequency and intensity of storms is projected to increase anywhere from $4-6 billion in the near future. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 85 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 According to NOAA, weather extremes will likely cause more frequent, stronger storms in the future due to rising surface temperatures. NOAA models predict that while there may be less frequent, low-category storm events (Tropical Storms, Category 1 Hurricanes), there will be more, high-category storm events (Category 4 and 5 Hurricanes) in the future. This means that there may be fewer hurricanes overall in any given year, but when hurricanes do form, it is more likely that they will become large storms that can create massive damage. VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT PEOPLE The very young, the elderly and the handicapped are especially vulnerable to harm from hurricanes. For those who are unable to evacuate for medical reasons, there should be provision to take care of special-needs patients and those in hospitals and nursing homes. Many of these patients are either oxygen- dependent, insulin-dependent, or in need of intensive medical care. There is a need to provide ongoing treatment for these vulnerable citizens, either on the coast or by air evacuation to upland hospitals. The stress from disasters such as a hurricane can result in immediate and long-term physical and emotional health problems among victims. • Population Patterns: o Rising coastal population densities, particularly in Naples, Marco Island, and other coastal areas. o Significant seasonal population influx affecting evacuation timing and available sheltering resources. o Vulnerable populations, such as retirees and tourists, may face challenges in evacuating quickly. o Growth in densely populated areas requiring higher capacity for emergency shelters. o Underserved Populations: Low-income residents in mobile homes or non- hurricane-hardened housing may be disproportionately impacted. Residents without private vehicles may face difficulties reaching evacuation shelters. Individuals in mobile homes are more vulnerable to hurricane winds, especially if their unit does not have tie downs and other wind safety measures. Overall, the housing stock in Collier County includes 11,189 mobile home units, comprising of almost 5 percent of the total housing stock. Approximately 15 percent of the housing stock in Everglades City is comprised of mobile home units. There are approximately 10,892 mobile home units in unincorporated Collier County. These communities may face more severe impacts from hurricane events as a result. Table 2.37 shows mobile home units by jurisdiction.

PROPERTY Hurricanes can cause catastrophic damage to coastlines and several hundred miles inland. Hurricanes can produce winds exceeding 157 mph as well as tornadoes and microbursts. Additionally, hurricanes often bring intense rainfall that can result in flash flooding. Floods and flying debris from the excessive winds are often the deadly and most destructive results of hurricanes. • Land Use/Development Trends: o Coastal redevelopment and resort expansions increasing economic and physical exposure to storm surge. o Construction of high-rise residential complexes and resorts in surge-prone zones along the Naples and Marco Island coastline. o Growth of inland developments away from evacuation zones, shifting demand for new sheltering sites. o Erosion of natural buffer zones, such as mangroves, that previously mitigated surge impacts A Hazus level 1 analysis was used to determine hurricane risk based on probabilistic parameters for the 100-year and 500-year return periods. This analysis produced estimates of the likelihood of varying levels of damage as well as building-related economic losses. Note that Hazus only assesses hurricane wind and does not account for any other hazards associated with hurricane. Vulnerability to flooding is discussed in Section 2.5.1 . Table 2.38 and Table 2.39 provide the likelihood of damage at varying levels of severity by occupancy type. During the probabilistic hurricane event with a 100-year return period, it's estimated that more than 68% of buildings in the county are likely to sustain damages. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 87 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 During the 500-year return period event, over 92% of the county's buildings are likely to be damaged.

Estimated property damages for the 500-year event total $39,671,741 ,320, which represents a loss ratio of over 48 percent. FEMA considers a loss ratio of 10 percent or more to be an indicator that a community will have significant difficulty recovering from an event. The 500-year event will cause significant difficulties for recovery. Damages from an actual hurricane event would likely also involve flood impacts that would raise the damage total. Therefore, even a 100-year hurricane event may cause more serious damages that what is reported here from Hazus. Due to the limitations of a Hazus level 1 analysis, damage estimates for critical facilities could not be calculated. ENVIRONMENT Aquatic species within the lake will either be displaced or destroyed. The velocity of the flood wave will likely destroy riparian and instream vegetation and destroy wetland function. The flood wave will like cause erosion within and adjacent to the stream. Deposition of eroded deposits may choke instream habitat or disrupt riparian areas. Sediments within the lake bottom and any low oxygen water from within the lake will be dispersed, potentially causing fish kills or releasing heavy metals found in the lake sediment layers. CONSEQUENCE ANALYSIS Table 2.41 summarizes the potential negative consequences of hurricanes and tropical storms. Table 2.41 — Consequence Analysis — Hurricane and Tropical Storm Category Consequences Public Impacts include injury or death, loss of property, outbreak of diseases, mental trauma and loss of livelihoods. Power outages and flooding are likely to displace people from their homes. Water can become polluted such that if consumed, diseases and infection can be easily spread. Residential, commercial, and public buildings, as well as critical infrastructure such as transportation,water, energy, and communication systems may be damaged or destroyed, resulting in cascading impacts on the public. Responders Localized impact expected to limit damage to personnel in the inundation area at the time of the incident. Continuity of Operations Damage to facilities/personnel from flooding or wind may require temporary (including Continued relocation of some operations. Operations may be interrupted by power outages. Delivery of Services) Disruption of roads and/or utilities may postpone delivery of some services.

HAZARD SUMMARY BY JURISDICTION The following table summarizes extreme heat hazard risk by jurisdiction. Due to its coastal geography, the entire county is susceptible to the impacts of hurricanes, tropical storms, and the associated storm surges and flooding. While hurricanes have the possibility of being catastrophic across all jurisdictions, certain areas have higher vulnerability. Impacts may be greater in more highly developed areas with greater amounts of impervious surface and higher exposure in terms of both property and population density. Areas with more mobile homes are also more vulnerable to damage, while areas with higher property values have greater overall exposure and potential for damages. Despite these differences, all jurisdictions have the possibility for catastrophic impacts.

They can occur inside warm, moist air masses and at fronts. As the warm, moist air moves upward, it cools, condenses, and forms cumulonimbus clouds that can reach heights of greater than 35,000 ft. As the rising air reaches its dew point, water droplets and ice form and begin falling the long distance through the clouds towards earth's surface. As the droplets fall, they collide with other droplets and become larger. The falling droplets create a downdraft of air that spreads out at earth's surface and causes strong winds associated with thunderstorms. There are four ways in which thunderstorms can organize: single cell, multi-cell cluster, multi-cell lines (squall lines), and supercells. Even though supercell thunderstorms are most frequently associated with severe weather phenomena, thunderstorms most frequently organize into clusters or lines. Warm, humid conditions are favorable for the development of thunderstorms. The average single cell thunderstorm is approximately 15 miles in diameter and lasts less than 30 minutes at a single location. However, thunderstorms, especially when organized into clusters or lines, can travel intact for distances exceeding 600 miles. Thunderstorms are responsible for the development and formation of many severe weather phenomena, posing great hazards to the population and landscape. Damage that results from thunderstorms is mainly inflicted by downburst winds, large hailstones, and flash flooding caused by heavy precipitation. Stronger thunderstorms can produce tornadoes and waterspouts. While conditions for thunderstorm conditions may be anticipated within a few hours, severe conditions are difficult to predict. Regardless of severity, storms generally pass within a few hours. • Warning Time: 4 — Less than six hours • Duration: 1 — Less than six hours LIGHTNING Lightning is a sudden electrical discharge released from the atmosphere that follows a course from cloud to ground, cloud to cloud, or cloud to surrounding air, with light illuminating its path. Lightning's unpredictable nature causes it to be one of the most feared weather elements. All thunderstorms produce lightning, which often strikes outside of the area where it is raining and is known to fall more than 10 miles away from the rainfall area. When lightning strikes, electricity shoots through the air and causes vibrations creating the sound of thunder. A bolt of lightning can reach temperatures approaching 50,000 degrees Fahrenheit. According to the CDC, on average, 28 people in the United States die each year from lightning strikes. Lightning strikes can also start building fires and wildland fires, and damage electrical systems and equipment. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 91 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 The watch/warning time for a given storm is usually a few hours. There is no warning time for any given lightning strike. Lightning strikes are instantaneous. Storms that cause lightning usually pass within a few hours. • Warning Time: 4 — Less than six hours • Duration: 1 — Less than six hours HAIL According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), hail is precipitation that is formed when updrafts in thunderstorms carry raindrops upward into extremely cold areas of the atmosphere causing them to freeze. The raindrops form into small frozen droplets and then continue to grow as they encounter super-cooled water which will freeze on contact with the frozen rain droplet. This frozen rain droplet can continue to grow and form hail. If the updraft forces can support or suspend the weight of the hailstone, hail can continue to grow. At the time when the updraft can no longer support the hailstone, it will fall to the earth. For example, a 1/4" diameter or pea sized hail requires updrafts of 24 mph, while a 2 3/4" diameter or baseball sized hail requires an updraft of 81 mph. The largest hailstone recorded in the United States was found in Vivian, South Dakota on July 23, 2010; it measured eight inches in diameter, almost the size of a soccer ball. While soccer-ball- sized hail is the exception, but even small pea sized hail can do damage. Hailstorms in Florida cause damage to property, crops, and the environment, and kill and injure livestock. In the United States, hail causes more than $1 billion in damage to property and crops each year. Much of the damage inflicted by hail is to crops. Even relatively small hail can shred plants to ribbons in a matter of minutes. Vehicles, roofs of buildings and homes, and landscaping are the other things most commonly damaged by hail. Hail has been known to cause injury to humans; occasionally, these injuries can be fatal. The onset of thunderstorms with hail is generally rapid. However, advancements in meteorological forecasting allow for some warning. Storms usually pass in a few hours. • Warning Time: 4 — Less than six hours • Duration: 1 — Less than six hours TORNADO According to the Glossary of Meteorology (AMS 2000), a tornado is "a violently rotating column of air, pendant from a cumuliform cloud or underneath a cumuliform cloud, and often (but not always) visible as a funnel cloud." Tornadoes can appear from any direction. Most move from southwest to northeast, or west to east. Some tornadoes have changed direction amid path, or even backtracked. Tornadoes are commonly produced by land falling tropical cyclones. Those making landfall along the Gulf coast traditionally produce more tornadoes than those making landfall along the Atlantic coast. Tornadoes that form within hurricanes are more common Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 92 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 in the right front quadrant with respect to the forward direction but can occur in other areas as well. According to the NOAA, more than half of the landfalling hurricanes will spawn at least one tornado. Tornadoes are more likely to be spawned within 24 hours of landfall and are usually within 30 miles of the tropical cyclone's center. Tornadoes have the potential to produce winds in excess of 200 mph (EF5 on the Enhanced Fujita Scale) and can be very expansive — some in the Great Plains have exceeded two miles in width. Tornadoes associated with tropical cyclones, however, tend to be of lower intensity (EFO to EF2) and much smaller in size than ones that form in the Great Plains. 43/40, 0 . it :r. y 4 r ri Weak Tornadoes Strong Tornadoes Violent Tornadoes • 88°.4. of all tornadoes • 11%of all tornadoes ■ Less than 1%of all tornadoes • Less than 5'!,,of tornado deaths • Nearly 30' of all tornado deaths • 70'%..of all tornado deaths • Lifetime 1 - 10+minutes • May last 20 minutes or longer • Can exceed 1 hour • Winds Less than 110 mph • Winds 111-165 mph ■ Winds greater than 166 mph • Produces EFO or EF 1 damage • Produces EF2 or EF3 damage • Produces EF4 or EF5 damage Source: NOAA National Weather Service • Warning Time: 4 — Less than six hours • Duration: 1 — Less than six hours According to the NOAA Storm Prediction Center (SPC), the United States experiences an average of 1,248 tornadoes per year with the highest concentration of tornadoes occurring in the region surrounding Oklahoma, Texas, and Kansas. Although the Great Plains region of the Central United States does favor the development of the largest and most dangerous tornadoes (earning the designation of "tornado alley"), the southeast experiences tornado threats throughout the cooler months of the year before they move to the central plains during May and June. The below figure shows tornado activity in the United States based on the number of recorded tornadoes per 10,000 square miles.

The scope of lightning and hail is generally confined to the footprint of its associated thunderstorm. All of Collier County and its jurisdictions shares equal risk to the threat of severe storms and tornadoes. • Spatial Extent: 4 — Large According to the Vaisala Interactive Global Lightning Density Map, shown in Figure 2.24, the majority of Florida experiences 32-64 lightning events per square kilometer per year. However, some regions including portions of Collier County, experience 64-96 lightning events per year. Florida had 5,815,300 total flashes of lightning during the year 2023, more than any other state. It should be noted that future lightning occurrences may exceed these figures. While the total area vulnerable to a lightning strike corresponds to the footprint of a given thunderstorm, a specific lightning strike is usually a localized event and occurs randomly. While lightning is most often affiliated with severe thunderstorms, it may also strike outside of heavy rain and might occur as far as 10 miles away from any rainfall. • Spatial Extent: 1 — Negligible Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 94 1 6F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 Figure 2.24 - Lightning Flash Density (2016-2023) ' am- Florida s Total Lightning Density e.unts/krnlyear 1 _ 8 12 ?6 64 96 I ▪ <1 12-16 I2■ 1-2 L 16-32 ■ 2-4 � 32-64 B lydi nl C■ 4-8 el. 64-96 ▪■ 8-12 0■ >96 Color scale_ Rainnoss v� Map layer: Density Contour IGLD36O) .. _ } r .s, VAISALA)(weather Source: Vaisala Interactive Global Lightning Density Map Figure 2.25 reflects the tracks of past tornados that passed through Collier County from 1950 through 2023 according to data from the NOAA/NWS Storm Prediction Center. Tornados can occur anywhere in the County and affect all it's jurisdictions. Tornadoes typically impact a small area, but damage may be extensive. Tornado locations are completely random, meaning risk to tornado isn't increased in one area of the county versus another. All of Collier County is uniformly exposed to tornadoes. • Spatial Extent: 2 — Small Hailstorms frequently accompany thunderstorms, so their locations and spatial extents coincide. Collier County and it's jurisictions is uniformly exposed to severe thunderstorms; therefore, the entire planning area is equally exposed to hail which may be produced by such storms. However, large-scale hail tends to occur in a more localized area within the storm. • Spatial Extent: 2 — Small Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 95 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 Figure 2.25 — Tornado Paths Through Collier County, 1950-2023 ' N Immokalee Reservation 9 Naples l �� t) 9 Marco Island :4 Nolo s er' Everglades 0 10 20 Miles Collier County,FL Tornado Paths(1950-2023) Date: 8/22/2024 Source: NOAA Legend NAD 1983 State Plane Municipality Prepared By: LE Projection: FloridaEast FIPS (US Feet) I Collier County — F-0(40-72 mph)Light damage I ) di Collier County F-1(73-112 mph)Moderate damage F-2(113-157 mph)Considerable damage Source: NOAA/NWS Storm Prediction Center Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 96 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 EXTENT THUNDERSTORM WINDS The magnitude of a thunderstorm event can be defined by the storm's maximum wind speed and its impacts. NCEI divides wind events into several types including High Wind, Strong Wind, Thunderstorm Wind, Tornado and Hurricane. For this severe weather risk assessment, High Wind, Strong Wind and Thunderstorm Wind data was collected. Hurricane Wind and Tornadoes are addressed as individual hazards. The following definitions come from the NCEI Storm Data Preparation document. • High Wind — Sustained non-convective winds of 40mph or greater lasting for one hour or longer or winds (sustained or gusts) of 58 mph for any duration on a widespread or localized basis. • Strong Wind — Non-convective winds gusting less than 58 mph, or sustained winds less than 40 mph, resulting in a fatality, injury, or damage. • Thunderstorm Wind —Winds, arising from convection (occurring within 30 minutes of lightning being observed or detected), with speeds of at least 58 mph, or winds of any speed (non-severe thunderstorm winds below 58 mph) producing a fatality, injury or damage. The strongest recorded thunderstorm wind event in the county occurred on January 17, 2016 with a measured gust of 78 mph in Naples and estimated gusts of 79 to 82 mph elsewhere across the county. The event reportedly caused no fatalities, injuries, or damages. • Impact: 2— Limited LIGHTNING Lightning is measured by the Lightning Activity Level (LAL) scale, created by the NWS to define lightning activity into a specific categorical scale. The LAL is a common parameter that is part of fire weather forecasts nationwide. The scale is shown in Table 2.42. Table 2.42 — Lightning Activity Level Scale Lightning Activity Level Scale LAL 1 No thunderstorms LAL 2 Isolated thunderstorms. Light rain will occasionally reach the ground. Lightning is very infrequent, 1 to 5 cloud to ground lightning strikes in a five-minute period LAL 3 Widely scattered thunderstorms. Light to moderate rain will reach the ground. Lightning is infrequent, 6 to 10 cloud to ground strikes in a five-minute period LAL 4 Scattered thunderstorms. Moderate rain is commonly produced. Lightning is frequent, 11 to 15 cloud to ground strikes in a five-minute period LAL 5 Numerous thunderstorms. Rainfall is moderate to heavy. Lightning is frequent and intense, greater than 15 cloud to ground strikes in a five-minute period LAL 6 Dry lightning (same as LAL 3 but without rain). This type of lightning has the potential for extreme fire activity and is normally highlighted in fire weather forecasts with a Red Flag warning Source: National Weather Service Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 97 1 6 F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 With the right conditions in place, the entire county is susceptible to each lightning activity level as defined by the LAL. Most lightning strikes cause limited damage to specific structures in a limited area, and cause very few injuries or fatalities, and minimal disruption on quality of life. Impact: 1 — Minor HAIL The NWS classifies hail by diameter size, and corresponding everyday objects to help relay scope and severity to the population.

The average hailstone size recorded between 2000 and 2023 in Collier County was a little under 1" in diameter; the largest hailstone recorded was 1.5", recorded on April 6, 2012 and June 26, 2014. The largest hailstone ever recorded in the U.S. fell in Vivian, SD on June 23, 2010, with a diameter of 8 inches and a circumference of 18.62 inches. • Impact: 1 — Minor TORNADO Prior to February 1, 2007, tornado intensity was measured by the Fujita (F) scale. This scale was revised and is now the Enhanced Fujita (EF) scale. Both scales are sets of wind estimates (not measurements) based on damage. The new scale provides more damage indicators (28) and associated degrees of damage, allowing for more detailed analysis, better correlation between damage and wind speed. It is also more precise because it considers the materials affected and the construction of structures damaged by a tornado. Table 2.45 shows the wind speeds associated with the enhanced Fujita scale ratings and the damage that could result at different levels of intensity. Table 2.45 — Enhanced Fujita Scale EF 3 Second Number Gust(mph) Damage 0 65-85 Light damage.

The most intense tornado to pass through Collier County in the past 20 years was an EF1 in Ochopee on September 9, 2017. While NCEI reports no property damage occurred, narratives of the event say that it occurred simultaneous to Hurricane Irma and caused damage to multiple trees along its path. The tornado was 0.25 miles long and 50 yards wide. • Impact: 3 — Critical HISTORICAL OCCURRENCES THUNDERSTORM WINDS Between January 1, 2000 and December 31, 2023, the NCEI recorded 62 separate incidents of thunderstorm winds, occurring on 40 separate days. These events caused $207,500 in recorded property damage and $3,000 in crop damages but zero injuries or fatalities were reported. The recorded gusts averaged 54 miles per hour, with the highest gusts recorded at 78 mph, recorded on January 17, 2016. Of these events, 18 caused property damage. Wind gusts with property damage recorded averaged $11,572 in damage, with one gust causing a reported $50,000 in damage (in East Naples on August 9, 2006). These incidents are aggregated by the date the events occurred and are recorded in Table 2.46 below: Table 2.46 — Recorded Thunderstorm Winds with Property Damages, Collier County, 2000-2023 Location Date Wind Speed (mph) Fatalities Injuries Property Damage Vanderbilt Beach 6/26/2001 70 0 0 $50,000 Naples 7/17/2002 50 0 0 $0 Naples 2/22/2003 55 0 0 $0 Vanderbilt Beach 7/4/2003 65 0 0 $0 Golden Gate 4/12/2004 55 0 0 $10,000 Immokalee 6/4/2004 54 0 0 $0 Marco Island 8/13/2004 55 0 0 $0 Everglades City 4/7/2005 50 0 0 $5,000 Golden Gate 7/16/2005 50 0 0 $1,000 East Naples 8/9/2006 70 0 0 $50,000 Naples 8/19/2006 55 0 0 $0 Jerome 5/5/2007 56 0 0 $0 Immokalee 5/6/2007 61 0 0 $10,000 (Apf)Naples Muni Arp 5/14/2007 52 0 0 $0 Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 100 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 Location Date Wind Speed (mph) Fatalities Injuries Property Damage Golden Gate 6/8/2007 61 0 0 $1,000 East Naples 6/25/2007 56 0 0 $500 (Apf)Naples Muni Arp 9/17/2007 54 0 0 $20,000 Sunniland 6/7/2009 52 0 0 $0 Naples Park 4/26/2010* 50 0 0 $2,000 Immokalee 6/15/2011* 50 0 0 $40,000 (Apf)Naples Muni Arp 4/6/2012 52 0 0 $2,000 Immokalee 5/24/2013 52 0 0 $0 East Naples 3/6/2014* 52 0 0 $0 Corkscrew 3/29/2014 52 0 0 $0 Golden Gate 6/15/2014 52 0 0 $0 Golden Gate 6/11/2015* 52 0 0 $0 (Apf)Naples Muni Arp 9/29/2015 56 0 0 $0 Naples 1/17/2016* 78 0 0 $0 Marco Island Arpt 2/16/2016 52 0 0 $0 Goodland 1/23/2017 52 0 0 $0 (Apf)Naples Muni Arp 7/31/2017 50 0 0 $2,000 (Apf)Naples Muni Arp 12/9/2017 51 0 0 $0 Marco Island 3/20/2018 53 0 0 $0 East Naples 5/30/2018 43 0 0 $5,000 Marco Island 10/19/2019* 39 0 0 $2,000 North Naples 4/25/2020 43 0 0 $1,000 North Naples 4/26/2020* 56 0 0 $1,000 East Naples 5/18/2020* 50 0 0 $1,000 East Naples 5/22/2020 50 0 0 $0 Golden Gate 5/31/2021 52 0 0 $0 Total 0 0 $207,500 Source: NCEI; Note: *Multiple events occurred on these dates. Injury, fatality, and damage stats are totaled; wind speed is highest reported. In addition to recorded thunderstorm wind events, NCEI reports 3 high wind and strong wind events during this same period that caused $5,000 in property damage. Of all 65 wind events during this period, there were no incidents that directly caused deaths or injuries. LIGHTNING According to NCEI data, there were 32 lightning strikes reported between 2000 and 2023. Of these, 20 recorded property damage totaling over $4.8 million. The highest rate of property damage recorded for a single incident was $2,000,000. Four events caused fatalities, and eight events caused a total of 13 injuries. Event narratives indicate in some cases that property damage occurred but was not estimated; therefore, actual property damage amounts are higher. No crop damage was recorded by these strikes. It should be noted that lightning events recorded by the NCEI are only those that are reported; it is certain that additional lightning incidents have occurred in Collier County. Table 2.47 details NCEI-recorded lightning strikes from 2000 through 2023.

Two other men standing about 10 feet away were injured by the same lightning strike. It was raining heavily at the time. June 23, 2009 —Two truck drivers were shocked by a nearby lightning strike as they were loading a dump truck in the Golden Gate Estates area. Both men received minor burns on their thighs and complained that their feet were stinging and burning. The injuries were Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 102 1 6 F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 not believed to be serious. One of the men was 22 years old and the other's age was unclear. June 26, 2013 — Lightning fatally struck a 35-year-old male construction worker who was working on the exterior of a single-family home on scaffolding. May 28, 2016 — OSHA reported a fatality due to a lightning strike to a construction worker who was struck while working on a roof. The date of death was reported to be the following day, May 29th, 2016. August 24, 2016 —A family visiting from out of town was leaving the south beach area of Marco Island as storms approached when lightning struck near their location. A 15-year- old male, as well as his brother and another female fell into the sand. All three were able to recover, but the 15-year-old male reported numbness in the chest, legs, and arms. All three victims and was taken to a local hospital and later released with minor injuries. May 18, 2020 — Broadcast media reported a house fire due to a lightning strike near the corner of Ridge Dr and East Ave near North Naples. The family had safely evacuated the home by the time crews arrived on scene. Naples Fire-Rescue Department confirms a lightning strike hit the roof of a home. September 11, 2021 — A lightning strike caused a utility pole to burst into flames in Naples. Witnesses say a lightning bolt struck the pole outside of Paragon Pavilion on Vanderbilt Road. The pole popped a couple of times before catching fire. No injuries reported. Time based on National Lightning Detection Network data. HAIL NCEI records 45 separate hail incidents across 30 days between January 1, 2000 and December 31, 2023 in Collier County. Of these, only $500 of property damage was reported from a singular event, while none caused death, injury or crop damage. However, this damage estimate may be under reported, as damage was reported in the narratives of many events but was not recorded in terms of a monetary value. The largest diameter hail recorded in the County was 1.5 inches, which occurred on two occasions: in Golden Gate on April 6, 2012 and in North Naples on June 26, 2014. The average hail size of all events in the County was just under one inch in diameter. Table 2.48 shows the summary of hail occurrences.

Approximately 4,000 customers lost power in Collier County, with an estimated 5,800 in Broward and Miami- Dade counties. Hail of 1.5-inch diameter was reported near Golden Gate Boulevard about one mile east of Collier Blvd. June 26, 2014 — A moist and unstable airmass resulted in scattered late afternoon and evening showers and thunderstorms. A Facebook picture showed a 1.5-inch hail diameter in Wilshire Lakes just north of Vanderbilt Beach Road and east of 1-75. June 11, 2018 — Morning storms once again developed along the east coast with the Atlantic Sea breeze, with numerous storms across the interior and Gulf coast as sea breeze moved west and collided with the Gulf breeze along the Gulf coast during the afternoon hours. Shower and storm development along these boundaries were enhanced by a lingering upper-level low across the northern Florida and the eastern Gulf of Mexico, allowing several strong storms to develop. Hail and a funnel cloud were reported in Palm Beach County with the morning activity, along with a lightning-induced fatality in Broward County. Hail was reported in Collier County during the afternoon hours. A video received via social media shows approximately dime sized hail falling in the Palm River area of North Naples. Time is estimated based on video post time and radar. May 22, 2020 — An upper-level low ejected northeastward and away from the southeast US which allowed for heights to rebound across South Florida as a ridge builds in from the western Atlantic. With the return of easterly flow, the Atlantic Sea breeze pushed inland and across the interior while the Gulf Breeze remained pinned along the west coast. This allowed the main focus for afternoon convection to be in western portions of South Florida where the two sea breeze boundaries collided. With temperatures aloft rather cool along with steepened lapse rates, parcel accelerations were strong enough for the development of hail and strong downbursts. Pictures received via social media reported 3/4-inch hail near the intersection of Collier Blvd and Vanderbilt Beach Rd. August 3, 2022 — Cold air aloft coupled with afternoon heating led to the development of sea breezes which focused strong to severe thunderstorms over SW Florida during the afternoon. Member of the public reported quarter-sized hail (estimated) and trees downed just east of NCH North Naples Hospital near Sharwood Drive. TORNADO NCEI storm reports were reviewed from 2000 through 2023 to assess whether recent trends varied from the longer historical record. According to NCEI, Collier County Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 104 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 1 6 F 4 experienced 27 tornado incidents between 2000 and 2023, causing 2 injuries, over$900 thousand in property damage and no fatalities or crop damage. However, this damage estimate may be under reported, as damage was reported in the narratives of many events but was not recorded in terms of a monetary value.

Specific incidents with some level of impact include: April 12, 2004 — A tornado associated with a squall line touched down near 1-75 and Santa Barbara Boulevard and lifted near the Golden Gate Parkway. The tornado caused minor roof damage to houses, destroyed sheds and uprooted trees. Minor damage was also reported at Naples Municipal Airport. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 105 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 September 19, 2004 — A tornado touched down in a vacant construction site just south of the Imperial Wilderness Mobile Home Park then moved northwest through the MHP. Damage was sustained to twenty homes with six suffering major damage. February 12, 2008 — An EFO Tornado touched down at the Everglades City Airport, flipping two Cessna Aircrafts while moving northeast. The tornado then moved across western sections of Everglades City producing roof and minor structural damage to a condo, school, and storage building and downing trees and power poles and damaging fences before dissipating on the north side of town. June 23, 2012 — The outer bands from Tropical Storm Debby located in the northeast Gulf of Mexico spawned two tornadoes in the Naples area both with EFO intensity. A brief tornado touchdown occurred at the North Collier Hospital in North Naples on the corner of Immokalee and Goodlette-Frank Roads. Damage was reported to trees and light poles broken off, but no structural damage to the hospital. One person was struck by a downed tree limb and was treated on-site. The tornado was likely spawned by the same storm that produced the earlier tornado in East Naples. November 22, 2017 — A frontal boundary across the region and a few showers across South Florida. A brief tornado/ land spout occurred in rural portions of Collier County. Collier County Sheriff Office reported via a police helicopter a tornado in the Corkscrew area in Collier County. The tornado was brief and stayed in an open field with no damage reported. January 16, 2022 — An area of low pressure moving across the Southeast United States dragged its associated cold front across the FL peninsula, bringing severe thunderstorms to the region. A band of thunderstorms moved through the area, with strong winds aloft providing the necessary ingredients for a few waterspouts/tornadoes as well as strong and gusty straight-line winds. Members of the public shared video of the tornadoes as it passed near Everglades City after coming ashore. The survey observed a leaning power pole along Tamiami Trail just east of the intersection with State Road 29. PROBABILITY OF FUTURE OCCURRENCE Based on historical occurrences recorded by NCEI for the 24-year period from 2000 through 2023, Collier County averages 2.6 thunderstorm wind events per year. Over this same period, 32 lightning events were reported as having caused death, injury, or property damage, which equates to an average of 1.3 damaging lightning strikes per year. The average hailstorm in Collier County occurs in the afternoon and has a hail stone with a diameter of just under one inch. Over the 24-year period from 2000 through 2023, Collier County experienced 45 reported hail incidents; this averages just under two reported incidents per year somewhere in the planning area, or a 100% chance that the County will experience a hail incident each year. Based on these historical occurrences, there is a 100% chance that the County will experience severe weather each year. The probability of a damaging impacts is highly likely. In over a 20-year span between 2000 and 2023, Collier County experienced 27 separate tornado incidents over 21 separate days. This correlates to over a 100 percent annual Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 106 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 probability that the Region will experience a tornado somewhere in its boundaries. None of these past tornado events was a magnitude EF2 or greater; therefore, the annual probability of a significant tornado event is less than 1 percent. • Probability: 4 — Highly Likely CLIMATE CHANGE Per the Fifth National Climate Assessment, "The complexes of thunderstorms that bring substantial precipitation to the central United States during the warm season have become more frequent and longer lasting over the past two decades." As temperatures rise humidity may increase atmospheric variability associated with the origination of severe thunderstorms and tornadoes. These changes are likely to lengthen the severe thunderstorm season throughout the Southeast during the cool-season months. Hail and lightning are often associated with thunderstorms and are predicted to follow a similar trend. Additionally, the Fifth National Climate Assessment states that "while the average annual number of tornadoes appears to have remained relatively constant, there is evidence that tornado outbreaks have become more frequent, that tornado power has increased, that tornado activity is increasing in the fall, and that "Tornado Alley" has shifted eastward." There presently is not enough data or research to quantify the magnitude of change that climate change may have related to severe storms and tornados and the level of significance of this hazard should be revisited over time. VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT PEOPLE People and populations exposed to the elements are most vulnerable to severe weather. A common hazard associated with wind events is falling trees and branches. Risk of being struck by lightning is greater in open areas, at higher elevations, and on the water. Lightning can also cause cascading hazards, including power loss. Loss of power could critically impact those relying on energy to service, including those that need powered medical devices. Additionally, the ignition of fires is always a concern with lightning strikes. The availability of sheltered locations such as basements, buildings constructed using hail-resistant materials and methods, and public storm shelters, all reduce the exposure of the population. Residents living in mobile homes are more vulnerable to hail events due to the lack of shelter locations and the vulnerability of the housing unit to damages. Overall, the housing stock in Collier County includes 11,189 mobile home units, comprising of almost 5 percent of the total housing stock. Approximately 15 percent of the housing stock in Everglades City is comprised of mobile home units. These communities may face more severe impacts from hurricane events as a result. Since 2000, the NCEI records 4 fatalities and 13 injuries attributed to lightning in Collier County. NCEI records no fatalities, and no injuries attributed to wind events in Collier County. There are no injuries or fatalities attributed to hail. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 107 V 6 F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 People and populations exposed to the elements are most vulnerable to tornados. Since 2000, the NCEI database records no fatalities, and two injuries attributed to tornadoes in Collier County. • Population Patterns: o Rising population in mobile home parks and low-cost housing developments vulnerable to high winds. o Increased urban population exposed to falling debris and infrastructure damage. o Vulnerable populations, such as outdoor workers, are at higher risk during severe weather events. o Underserved Populations: Low-income households may lack access to safe storm shelters or reinforced structures. Non-English-speaking residents may experience communication barriers when receiving warnings for fast-moving storms PROPERTY All property, including residential and commercial buildings as well as critical facilities and infrastructure, are vulnerable to impacts from severe storms and tornadoes. Property damage caused by lightning usually occurs in one of two ways —either by direct damages through fires ignited by lightning, or by secondary impacts due to power loss. According to data collected on lightning strikes in Collier County, most recorded property damage was due to structure fires. NCEI records lightning impacts over 20 years (2000-2023), with $4,826,600 in property damage recorded (no incidents were recorded in 2000, 2002, 2004, 2005, 2012, 2018, or 2023). Based on these records, the planning area experiences an annualized loss of $201,108 in property damage. The average impact from lightning per incident in Collier County is $150,831. General damages to property from hail are direct, including destroyed windows, dented cars, and building, roof and siding damage in areas exposed to hail. Hail can also cause enough damage to cars to cause them to be totaled. The level of damage is commensurate with both a material's ability to withstand hail impacts, and the size of the hailstones that are falling. Construction practices and building codes can help maximize the resistance of the structures to damage. Large amounts of hail may need to be physically cleared from roadways and sidewalks, depending on accumulation. Hail can cause other cascading impacts, including power loss. During a 24-year span between January 1, 2000 and December 31, 2023 in Collier County, NCEI reported only $500 worth of property damage as a direct result of hail. It should be noted that property damage due to hail is usually insured loss, with damages covered under most major comprehensive insurance plans. Because of this, hail losses are notoriously underreported by the NCEI. It is difficult to find an accurate repository of hail damages in Collier County, thus the NCEI is still used to form a baseline. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 108 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 Wind events reported in NCEI for the 24-year period from 2000 through 2023 totaled $207,500 in property damage, which equates to an annualized loss of $8,645 across the planning area. General damages to property are both direct (what the tornado physically destroys) and indirect, which focuses on additional costs, damages and losses attributed to secondary hazards spawned by the tornado, or due to the damages caused by the tornado. Depending on the size of the tornado and its path, a tornado is capable of damaging and eventually destroying almost anything. Construction practices and building codes can help maximize the resistance of the structures to damage. • Land Use/Development Trends: o Increased development of large commercial complexes and high-rise structures that require wind-hardening measures. o Expansion of suburban neighborhoods with limited underground utilities, increasing the risk of power outages. o Growth of new outdoor recreational facilities that are vulnerable to lightning strikes and wind damage Secondary impacts of tornado damage often result from damage to infrastructure. Downed power and communications transmission lines, coupled with disruptions to transportation, create difficulties in reporting and responding to emergencies. These indirect impacts of a tornado put tremendous strain on a community. In the immediate aftermath, the focus is on emergency services. Since 2000, damaging tornadoes in the County are directly responsible for nearly $906,590 worth of damage to property according to NCEI data. This equates to an annualized loss of$37,774. ENVIRONMENT The main environmental impact from wind is damage to trees or crops. Wind events can also bring down power lines, which could cause a fire and result in even greater environmental impacts. Lightning may also result in the ignition of wildfires. This is part of a natural process, however, and the environment will return to its original state in time. Hail can cause extensive damage to the natural environment, pelting animals, trees and vegetation with hailstones. Melting hail can also increase both river and flash flood risk. Tornadoes can cause massive damage to the natural environment, uprooting trees and other debris within the tornado's path. This is part of a natural process, however, and the environment will return to its original state in time. CONSEQUENCE ANALYSIS Table 2.50 summarizes the potential negative consequences of severe weather.

The weakest tornadoes, EFO, can cause minor roof damage,while strong tornadoes can destroy frame buildings and even badly damage steel reinforced concrete structures. Buildings are vulnerable to direct impact from tornadoes and from wind borne debris. Mobile homes are particularly susceptible to damage during tornadoes.

Economic Condition of the Lightning damage contingent on target; can severely impact/destroy critical Jurisdiction infrastructure and other economic drivers. Contingent on tornado's path; can severely impact/destroy critical infrastructure and other economic drivers. Public Confidence in the Public confidence is not generally affected by severe weather events if response Jurisdiction's Governance and recovery are not timely and effective. HAZARD SUMMARY BY JURISDICTION The following table summarizes severe weather hazard risk by jurisdiction. Most aspects of severe storm risk do not vary substantially by jurisdiction; however, mobile home units are more vulnerable to wind damage. Approximately 15 percent of the housing units in Everglades City are mobile home units. Additionally, there are over 11,000 mobile home units in Collier County, comprising almost 5 percent of the housing stock. These communities may therefore face more severe impacts from wind. Where priority ratings vary between wind, lightning, and hail for impact and spatial extent, these scores represent an average rating with greater weight given to thunderstorm wind because it occurs much more frequently.

Wildfires can consume large areas, including infrastructure, property, and resources. When massive fires, or conflagrations, develop near populated areas, evacuations possibly ensue. Not only do the flames impact the environment, but the massive volumes of smoke spread by certain atmospheric conditions also impact the health of nearby populations. There are three general types of fire spread that are recognized. • Ground fires — burn organic matter in the soil beneath surface litter and are sustained by glowing combustion. • Surface fires — spread with a flaming front and burn leaf litter, fallen branches and other fuels located at ground level. • Crown fires — burn through the top layer of foliage on a tree, known as the canopy or crown fires. Crown fires, the most intense type of fire and often the most difficult to contain, need strong winds, steep slopes and a heavy fuel load to continue burning. Generally, wildfires are started by humans, either through arson or carelessness. Fire intensity is controlled by both short-term weather conditions and longer-term vegetation conditions. During intense fires, understory vegetation, such as leaves, small branches, and other organic materials that accumulate on the ground, can become additional fuel for the fire. The most explosive conditions occur when dry, gusty winds blow across dry vegetation. Weather plays a major role in the birth, growth and death of a wildfire. In support of forecasting for fire weather, the NWS Fire Weather Program emerged in response to a need for weather support to large and dangerous wildfires. This service is provided to federal and state land management agencies for the prevention, suppression, and management of forest and rangeland fires. Weather conditions favorable to wildfire include drought, which increases flammability of surface fuels, and winds, which aid a wildfire's progress. The combination of wind, temperature, and humidity affects how fast wildland fires can spread. Rapid response can contain wildfires and limit their threat to property. Collier County experiences a variety of wildfire conditions found in the Keetch-Byram Drought Index, which is described in Table 2.51. The Keetch-Byram Drought Index (KBDI) for September 19, 2024 is shown in Figure 2.26 along with a Daily Fire Danger Estimate Adjective Rating for certain points across the state. The KBDI for Collier County and the surrounding areas at this time was between 0-99.

Most fuels will not readily ignite or burn. However,with enough sunlight and wind,cured grasses and some light surface fuels will bum in sports and patches. 200-400 Fires more readily burn and will carry across an area with no gaps. Heavier fuels will still not readily ignite and burn.Also,expect smoldering and the resulting smoke to carry into and possibly through the night. 400-600 Fire intensity begins to significantly increase. Fires will readily burn in all directions exposing mineral soils in some locations. Larger fuels may burn or smolder for several days creating possible smoke and control problems. 600-800 Fires will burn to mineral soil.Stumps will burn to the end of underground roots and spotting will be a major problem. Fires will burn through the night and heavier fuels will actively burn and contribute to fire intensity.

The WUI is described as the area where structures and other human improvements meet and intermingle with undeveloped wildland or vegetative fuels, and thus demarcates the spatial extent of wildfire risk. The WUI is essentially all the land in the county that is not heavily urbanized. The expansion of residential development from urban centers out into rural landscapes increases the potential for wildland fire threat to public safety and the potential for damage to forest resources and dependent industries. Population growth within the WUI substantially increases the risk of wildfire. Collier County and all of its jurisdictions are exposed to wildfire. Table 2.52 details the extent of the WUI in Collier County, and Figure 2.27 maps the WUI. It is important to note that Collier County is the second largest county in Florida by area where 196,092 acres (15% of WUI acres) is inside the WUI, leaving 1,107,046 outside the WUI. • Spatial Extent: 3 — Moderate Table 2.52 —Wildland Urban Interface, Population and Acres Housing Density WUI Acres Percent of WUI Acres LT 1 hs/40ac 25,792 13.2% 1 hs/40ac to 1 hs/20ac 10,596 5.4% 1 hs/20ac to l hs/10ac 14,362 7.3% 1 hs/10ac to 1 hs/5ac 17,246 8.8% 1 hs/5ac to 1 hs/2ac 43,739 22.3% 1 hs/2ac to 3hs/1 ac 68,147 34.8% GT 3hs/lac 16,211 8.3% Total 196,092 100.0% Source: WSP GIS Analysis Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 113 ( 6F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 Figure 2.27 — Wildland Urban Interface, Collier County A immokalee Reservation l,} us J ,...: •i' . 4i 4, Naples \ '''io . i i t) for *•*E:4 a Marco Island �I�ri`�{„, iii CL f46, rt — --- Everglades 0 10 20 Miles Collier County, FL Wildland Urban Interface Dale: aw:/aia Source: SouthWRAP Legend NAD 1983 State Plane Municipality 4- 1 hs/10 to 1 hs/5 ac Prepared By: LE Projection: Fonda East FIRS 0901(US Feet) I I Collier County 1.11 5-1 hs/5 to 1 hs/2 ac '` 1-LT 1 hs/40 ac � 6- 1hs/2to3hs/ac Collier Count 2-1 hs/40 to 1 hs/20 ac IIIII 7-GT 3 hs/ac 3- 1 hs/20 to 1 hs/10 ac Source: Southern Wildfire Risk Assessment Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 114 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 EXTENT The extent of a wildfire can be quantified by assessing its intensity, which refers to the energy output or heat released by the fire as it burns. One of the most commonly used tools to measure wildfire intensity is the Characteristic Fire Intensity Scale (CFIS). This scale is instrumental in identifying areas where significant fuel hazards exit-those regions with a high potential to support dangerous and uncontrollable fires. The CFIS now only measures the current intensity of a wildfire but also helps to predict the potential for severe fires by analyzing the available fuel, topography, and weather conditions. Fire intensity ratings provide critical information about the potential for extreme fire behavior by considering a range of factors that influence how a fire will behave. These factors include the type, amount, and arrangement of fuels (such as vegetation or trees), the slope and layout of the land (topography), and weather patterns, including wind speed, humidity, and temperature. The ratings are determined using a weighted average of four percentile weather categories, which represent different levels of fire weather conditions, from relatively mild to extreme. The Fire Intensity Scale consists of five classes, as defined by Southern Wildfire Risk Assessment and is shown in Table 2.53. Figure 2.28 shows the potential fire intensity within the WUI across Collier County. Table 2.53 — Fire Intensity Scale Class Description 1,Very Low Very small, discontinuous flames, usually less than 1 foot in length;very low rate of spread; no spotting. Fires are typically easy to suppress by firefighters with basic training and non- specialized equipment. 2, Low Small flames, usually less than two feet long; small amount of very short-range spotting possible. Fires are easy to suppress by trained firefighters with protective equipment and specialized tools. 3, Moderate Flames up to 8 feet in length; short-range spotting is possible. Trained firefighters will find these fires difficult to suppress without support from aircraft or engines, but dozer and plows are generally effective. Increasing potential for harm or damage to life and property. 4, High Large Flames, up to 30 feet in length; short-range spotting common; medium range spotting possible. Direct attack by trained firefighters, engines, and dozers is generally ineffective, indirect attack may be effective. Significant potential for harm or damage to life and property. 5, Very High Very large flames up to 150 feet in length; profuse short-range spotting,frequent long-range spotting; strong fire-induced winds. Indirect attack marginally effective at the head of the fire. Great potential for harm or damage to life and property.

The Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services maintains records of acreage burned and number of fires within the State of Florida. Between January 1st and September 15, 2024, there were 1,768 wildfires across the State with a total of 49,206 acres burned. Florida participates in the national Ready, Set, Go! program which helps prepare first responders to best address wildfires when they occur. This program is also used as outreach to help citizens understand their risk and how to be prepared. Collier County has addressed fire hazards in their building codes and comprehensive plan. Additionally, The State of Florida crated a State Wildfire Mitigation Plan, in which Collier County is a part of the Caloosahatchee Forestry Center Wildfire Mitigation Plan. According to the Caloosahatchee Forestry Center Wildfire Mitigation Plan, Collier County is home to many prescribed burn programs due to its abundance of public parks and forests. The largest wildfire hazard area in Collier County is Golden Gates Estates because of its density and location in heavily wooded areas. Between 2005 and 2015, lightning was the main cause of wildfires in the County accounting for 39 percent of the 810 wildfires. One of the many goals of the Wildfire Mitigation Plan is to complete a Community Wildfire Protection Plan for Collier County. The State of Florida uses this Active Wildfires Dashboard to communicate to others where the currently burning wildfires are located. At the time this data is collected, there are no active wildfires in the State of Florida. The region experienced prolonged periods of severe drought in 1998 and 2001, as well as extreme drought in 2010 to 2012, and again in 2017. These periods of drought may explain some of the annual variation in fires and acreage burned. On average, Collier County experiences almost one fire annually based on data reported by the NCEI database. Actual number of fires is likely higher because smaller fires within jurisdictional boundaries are managed by local fire departments. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 118 1 6 F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 PROBABILITY OF FUTURE OCCURRENCE The Southern Wildfire Risk Assessment provides a Burn Probability analysis which predicts the probability of an area burning based on landscape conditions, weather, historical ignition patterns, and historical fire prevention and suppression efforts. Burn Probability data is generated by simulating fires under different weather, fire intensity, and other conditions. Values in the Burn Probability (BP) data layer indicate, for each pixel, the number of times that cell was burned by a modeled fire, divided by the total number of annual weather scenarios simulated. The simulations are calibrated to historical fire size distributions. The Burn Probability for Collier County is presented in Table 2.56 and illustrated in Figure 2.29. According to this data, approximately 12.3 percent of Collier County has no burn probability.

The areas of higher burn probability are located along U.S. Highway 41 near Everglades and in the Big Cypress National Preserve. The northwestern corner of the county and areas surrounding lakes have a burn probability between classes 1 to 4. The probability of wildfire across the county is considered likely, defined as between a 10% and 100% annual chance of occurrence. Everglades, Marco Island, and Naples are largely non- burnable or contain only small areas of very low burn probability. The communities containing a higher burn probability, as noted, have a comparatively higher probability of occurrence. • Probability: 3 — Likely CLIMATE CHANGE Climate change is expected to have far-reaching effects on various environmental processes, including the frequency an intensity of extreme heat and drought events, both of which could profoundly influence wildfire behavior. As global temperatures rise, the likelihood of more frequent and prolonged periods of extreme heat increase, which can dry out vegetation, soil, and organic matter, making them more susceptible to ignition. Additionally, the intensification of drought conditions means that water availability for plants and ecosystems could become increasingly scarce, leading to a reduction in the moisture content of vegetation, soils, and decomposing organic material, all of which play a critical tole in wildfire dynamics. Moreover, the unpredictability of climate change means that both seasons could become more extreme in their respective ways, amplifying the impacts on wildfire behavior throughout Collier County, and it's jurisdictions. VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT PEOPLE Wildfire pose significant risks to human life and health, causing fatalities, injuries, and long-term health complications such as respiratory issues due to smoke inhalation. To mitigate these dangers, it is crucial to implement comprehensive procedures for rapid warning and evacuation. Developing reliable early warning systems that utilize satellite monitoring, drones, and weather forecasts can help alert communities to emerging threats. Local authorities should communicate through various channels, including SMS alerts, social media and community radio, to ensure that messages everyone effectively. Effective communication and coordination among local fire departments, law enforcement, and emergency management agencies are vital for an orderly and safe evacuation process. After evacuations, providing support affected individuals and families is crucial, including access to medical care, mental health services, and resources for rebuilding. Establishing community networks can further assist residents during recovery. Based on 2020 housing density data, Southern Wildfire Risk Assessment (SWRA) estimates that 196,092 people of the total planning area population live within the WUI and are therefore at risk to wildfire. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 121 6 ,F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 • Population Patterns: o Increased suburban expansion into wildland-urban interface areas like Golden Gate Estates. o Growing rural communities with limited fire mitigation measures. o Higher risk for elderly and lower-income residents in rural areas with limited access to emergency services. o Underserved Populations: Migrant farmworkers and rural populations may face challenges accessing emergency notifications due to remote locations and language barriers. PROPERTY Wildfire can lead to sustainable direct property losses, impacting buildings, vehicles, landscaped areas, agricultural lands, and livestock. The destruction of homes and businesses not only results in financial losses but can also displace families and disrupt communities. One effective approach to increasing fire resistance is the use of fire-rated materials in construction such as non-combustible roofing, siding, and decks, as well as tempered glass windows that can withstand high temperatures. Additionally, building codes that require certain fire safety measures, such as proper ventilation and firebreaks, can further protect properties from encroaching flames. • Land Use/Development Trends: o Land clearing for housing developments creating new wildland-urban interfaces. o Construction of fire-prone properties (e.g., wood-frame homes) in fire zones. o New roads and utilities increasing human activity and ignition risks in wildfire-prone areas. o Limited implementation of defensible space regulations and fire-resistant building codes in some new developments. Landscaping practices are another vital element in reducing vulnerability to wildfires. By incorporating fire-resistant plants and creating defensible space around properties— typically a buffer zone that extends at least 30 feet from structures—homeowners can limit the flammability of their surroundings. Techniques such as maintaining a green lawn, using gravel or stone mulch, and keeping trees trimmed can minimize the potential for fire to spread to buildings. Exposure to wildfire was estimated using SWRA's Wildland Urban Interface Risk Index (WUIRI). The WUIRI provides a rating of the potential impact of a wildfire on people and properties. It is derived using a Response Function modeling approach which involves assigning a net change in the value to a resource or asset based on susceptibility to fire at different intensity levels, such as flame length. The range of values is from -1 to -9, with -1 representing the least negative impact and -9 representing the most negative impact. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 122 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 For example, areas with high housing density and high flame lengths are rated -9 while areas with low housing density and low flame lengths are rated -1 . To calculate the WUIRI, SWRA combines WUI housing density data with Flame Length data and response functions to represent potential impacts. Response functions were defined by a team of experts based on values defined by SWRA. By combining flame length with the WUI housing density data, you can determine where the greatest potential impact to homes and people is likely to occur.Table 2.57 summarizes the number of parcels and their total value that fall within areas with moderate to high risk for wildfire impacts, defined as ratings of-5 to -9 on the WUIRI. This table represents exposure within the area rated under -5, however, actual damages in the event of a wildfire would vary. Based on this analysis, over 71 percent of the planning area is exposed to moderate to high critical facility risk.

ENVIRONMENT Wildfires have the potential to cause extensive damage to forest and forage resources, significantly affecting both natural habitats and agricultural land. When a wildfire sweeps through a forest, it can obliterate vast areas of vegetation, leading to loss of trees, shrubs, and underbrush that provide habitat for wildlife. This destruction disrupts ecosystems, displacing animal species and impacting their food sources. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 124 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 Additionally, wildfires can severely damage agricultural crops on private land. The intense heat and smoke can harm plants, leading to reduced yields or complete crop failure. This not only affects farmers economically but can also have broader implications for local and regional food supplies. The destruction of crops can lead to higher food prices and food scarcity, impacting communities that depend on these resources. The recovery process can vary based on factors such as the severity of the fire, the type of ecosystem affected, and climate conditions. In many cases, wildfires can lead to the growth of new, diverse plant communities that enhance soil quality and increase habitat complexity. Additionally, the ash left behind can provide essential nutrients that stimulate the growth of new vegetation. CONSEQUENCE ANALYSIS Table 2.59 summarizes the potential detrimental consequences of wildfire. Table 2.59 — Consequence Analysis - Wildfire Category Consequences Public In addition to the potential for fatalities, wildfire and the resulting diminished air quality pose health risks. Exposure to wildfire smoke can cause serious health problems within a community, including asthma attacks and pneumonia, and can worsen chronic heart and lung diseases.Vulnerable populations include children, elderly, and people with respiratory problems or heart disease. Even healthy citizens may experience symptoms such as sore throats and itchy eyes. Responders Public and firefighter safety is the priority in all wildland fire management activities. Wildfires are a real threat to the health and safety of the emergency services. Most fire- fighters in rural areas are'retained'. This means that they are part-time and can be called away from their normal work to attend to fires. Continuity of Wildfire events can lead to power outages, disrupting operations significantly. Fallen Operations (including trees, damaged power lines, and poor road conditions can hinder access to essential Continued Delivery of facilities and emergency equipment. Services) Property, Facilities Wildfires frequently damage community infrastructure, including roadways, and Infrastructure communication networks and facilities, power lines, and water distribution systems. Restoring basic services is critical and a top priority. Efforts to restore roadways include the costs of maintenance and damage assessment teams, field data collection, and replacement or repair costs. Direct impacts to municipal water supply may occur through contamination of ash and debris during the fire, destruction of aboveground distribution lines, and soil erosion or debris deposits into waterways after the fire. Utilities and communications repairs are also necessary for equipment damaged by a fire.This includes power lines, transformers, cell phone towers,and phone lines. Environment Wildfires damage the natural environment by killing vegetation and wildlife. The aftermath increases the risk of floods and debris flows, as bare ground and the loss of plants leave areas more vulnerable. Moreover, the secondary effects of wildfires—such as erosion, landslides, the introduction of invasive species, and changes in water quality—can often be more catastrophic than the fire itself. Economic Condition Wildfires can have significant short-term and long-term effects on the local economy. of the Jurisdiction Wildfires, and extreme fire danger, may reduce recreation and tourism in and near the fires. If aesthetics are impaired, local property values can decline. Extensive fire damage Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 125 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 Category Consequences to trees can significantly alter the timber supply, both through a short-term surplus from timber salvage and a longer-term decline while the trees regrow.Water supplies can be degraded by post-fire erosion and stream sedimentation. Public Confidence in Wildfire events can undermine public confidence due to their visible effects on the the Jurisdiction's community. The level of trust in local governance may be shaped by actions taken before Governance a disaster,such as mitigation efforts, preparation initiatives, public education, timely warnings to residents, response measures, and the speed and effectiveness of recovery efforts. HAZARD SUMMARY BY JURISDICTION The following table summarizes flood hazard risk by jurisdiction. Wildfire warning time and duration do not vary by jurisdiction. Spatial extent ratings were estimated based on the proportion of area within the WUI; all jurisdictions have between 10°/0 and 50% of their area in the WUI and were assigned a spatial extent rating of 3, except for the City of Everglades which has close to 100% of its area in the WUI and was thus given a rating of 4. Impact ratings were based on fire intensity data from SWRA. Jurisdictions with significant clusters of moderate to high fire intensity were assigned a rating of 3; all other jurisdictions were assigned a rating of 2. Probability ratings were determined based on burn probability data from SWRA. Jurisdictions with clusters of moderate burn probability or higher were assigned a rating of 3; the remaining jurisdictions have minimal to no burn probability and were assigned a probability of 1.

Erosion undermines and often destroys homes, businesses, and public infrastructure and can have long-term economic and social consequences. According to NOAA, coastal erosion is responsible for approximately $500 million per year in coastal property loss in the Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 126 V +6F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 United States, including damage to structures and loss of land. To mitigate coastal erosion, the federal government subsidizes beach nourishment projects and other shoreline erosion control measures. Since 2018, the federal government has spent more than $770 million for emergency beach nourishment projects in Florida, Georgia, and the Carolinas. Coastal erosion has both natural causes and causes related to human activities. Gradual coastal erosion and accretion results naturally from the impacts of tidal longshore currents. Severe coastal erosion can occur over a short period when the state is impacted by hurricanes, tropical storms and other weather systems. Sand is continually removed by longshore currents in some areas, but it is also continually replaced by sand carried in by the same type of currents. Structures such as piers or sea walls, jetties, and navigational inlets may interrupt the movement of sand. Sand can become "trapped" in one place by these types of structures. The currents will, of course, continue to flow, though depleted of sand trapped elsewhere. With significant amounts of sand trapped in the system, the continuing motion of currents (now deficient in sand) results in erosion. In this way, human construction activities that result in the unnatural trapping of sand have the potential to result in significant coastal erosion. Erosion rates and potential impacts are highly localized. Severe storms can remove wide beaches, along with substantial dunes, in a single event. In undeveloped areas, these high recession rates are not likely to cause significant concern, but in some heavily populated locations, one or two feet of erosion may be considered catastrophic (NOAA, 2014). STREAM BANK EROSION Stream banks erode by a combination of direct stream processes, like down cutting and lateral erosion, and indirect processes, like mass-wasting accompanied by transportation. When the channel bends, water on the outside of the bend (the cut-bank)flows faster and water on the inside of the bend (the point)flows slower. This distribution of velocity results in erosion occurring on the outside of the bend and deposition occurring on the inside of the bend. Stream bank erosion is a natural process, but acceleration of this natural process leads to a disproportionate sediment supply, stream channel instability, land loss, habitat loss and other adverse effects. Stream bank erosion processes, although complex, are driven by two major components: stream bank characteristics (erodibility) and hydraulic/gravitational forces. Many land use activities can affect both components and lead to accelerated bank erosion. The vegetation rooting characteristics can protect banks from fluvial entrainment and collapse and provide internal bank strength. When riparian vegetation is changed from woody species to annual grasses and/or forbs, the internal strength is weakened, causing acceleration of mass wasting processes. Stream bank aggradation or degradation is often a response to stream channel instability. Since bank erosion is often a symptom of a larger, more complex problem, the long-term solutions often involve much more than just bank stabilization. Numerous studies have demonstrated that stream bank erosion contributes a large portion of the annual sediment yield. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 127 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 Determining the cause of accelerated streambank erosion is the first step in solving the problem. When a stream is straightened or widened, streambank erosion increases. Accelerated streambank erosion is part of the process as the stream seeks to re-establish a stable size and pattern. Damaging or removing streamside vegetation to the point where it no longer provides for bank stability can cause a dramatic increase in bank erosion. A degrading streambed results in higher and often unstable, eroding banks. When land use changes occur in a watershed, such as clearing land for agriculture or development, runoff increases. With this increase in runoff the stream channel will adjust to accommodate the additional flow, increasing streambank erosion. Addressing the problem of streambank erosion requires an understanding of both stream dynamics and the management of streamside vegetation. • Warning Time: 1 — More than 24 hours • Duration: 3 — Less than 1 week LOCATION Erosion can occur along any shoreline in the Collier County. Erosion is likely to be more frequent and severe along the Atlantic coast, but erosion of estuarine and streambank shorelines can also occur. In Collier County, erosion is typically caused by coastal tides, ocean currents, storm events, and failure of water control structures. Erosion rates are dependent on many characteristics, including soil type. Coastal soils are composed of fine-grained particles such as sand while inland soils tend to have greater organic matter content. This makes coastal areas more susceptible to erosion. More developed coastal areas, such as Marco Island, the City of Naples, Everglades City, and Port of the Isles are more susceptible to coastal erosion. However Collier County and it's jurisdictions are exposed to erosion because of the expanse of water control structures throughout. • Spatial Extent: 2 — Small EXTENT The magnitude of erosion can be measured as a rate of change from a measured previous condition. Erosion rates can vary significantly across the region due to several factors including fetch, shoreline orientation, and soil composition. To account for these variations, long-term erosion can also be measured by land cover changes and increases in open water. While a small fraction of the shoreline may exhibit accretion over a short period of time, cumulative impacts can still indicate an overall loss of estuarine coastline and marsh habitat. Table 2.60 provides data from the NOAA Coastal Change Analysis Program (C-CAP) Land Cover Atlas showing land cover changes in the Region from 1996 to 2016. Table 2.60 — Land Cover Changes, 1996-2016 Land Cover Type Collier Net Change Developed, High Intensity 15.07 sq. mi Developed, Low Intensity 16.31 sq. mi Developed, Open Space 11.49 sq. mi Grassland/Herbaceous 1.63 sq. mi Agriculture -15.78 sq. mi Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 128 1b F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 Forested -0.15 sq. mi Scrub/Shrub -4.99 sq. mi Woody Wetland -21.70 sq. mi Emergent Wetland -0.63 sq. mi Bare Land 0.93 sq. mi Open Water -2.19 sq. mi Source: https://coast.noaa.qov/diqitalcoast/data/ccapreqional.html The C-CAP data indicates that there was a slight decrease in open water and a larger net decrease in wetlands. Wetland loss can make coastlines even more vulnerable to erosion because wetlands help dampen the energy of ocean currents which would otherwise damage a shoreline. Additionally, Collier County saw a large increase in development. Greater development typically results in more impervious surface coverage. Greater impervious area — parking lots, sidewalks, roads, buildings, etc. — can increase stormwater runoff, alter drainage patterns, and further exacerbate erosion and flood issues. In terms of the magnitude of impacts, erosion may cause property damage when severe but is unlikely to cause injury or death. • Impact: 2 — Limited HISTORICAL OCCURRENCES million. Figure 2.30 identifies areas of coastline that are experiencing beach erosion and indicates the severity of the erosion, as determined by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection's staff of coastal engineers. This data is based on the state's 2024 Critical Erosion Report, which is used to document areas of change and to help the beach management staff with prioritizing projects and resources to the areas of greatest need. Per this data, there are multiple areas of critical beach erosion, including the coastline north and south of Wiggins Pass, along Vanderbilt Beach Estates, along Naples north and south of Doctor's Pass, along Marco Island and the inlet at Big Marco Pass, and the coastlines of Kice Island and Morgan Island. Erosion is typically an ongoing process; however, it can be intensified during storm events, particularly hurricane storm tides. Per an examination of event narratives in NCEI records for hurricanes, tropical storms, storm surges, and coastal floods, the following instances of major erosion are noted in Collier County: September 13, 2001 (Tropical Storm) — Tropical Storm Gabrielle crossed the west Florida coast near Venice on September 14th. Storm surge values of 3 to 5 feet were observed along much of the Collier County coast, causing some coastal flooding and minor to moderate beach erosion. October 24, 2005 (Storm Surge) — Hurricane Wilma produced a maximum measured storm tide of 8 feet at the USGS tide gauge at the Turner River near Chokoloskee in southern Collier County, equating to a storm surge of 7 feet after subtracting a one-foot astronomical tide. A storm tide estimated at 7 feet Marco Island was estimated to cause significant beach erosion by Collier County Emergency Management. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 129 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 September 19, 2008 (Tropical Storm) — Due to Tropical Storm Fay remaining at tropical storm strength and the rather limited nature of its wind field, storm surge and coastal flooding impacts were rather minor. The highest storm tide was estimated to be in the Everglades City/Chokoloskee areas, where the maximum storm tide was in the 5 foot range according to tide gauge data and estimates from local officials. Minimal storm surge was noted elsewhere, although moderate to locally severe beach erosion occurred in Naples. August 26-27, 2012 (Tropical Storm) — The center of Tropical Storm Isaac moved over the Florida Straits south of the Florida Keys on Sunday, August 26th, passing just south of Key West. Severe beach erosion and coastal flooding occurred on Monday, August 27th as the center of Tropical Storm Isaac moved into the Gulf of Mexico. Maximum storm tide values were observed at 4.9 feet at Naples, with estimates of 5 to 7 feet along the southern Collier County coast from Goodland to Everglades City. Highest estimated inundation values of up to 3 feet above ground level were noted in Goodland and Everglades City. Major beach erosion was also observed along the Collier County beaches. Severe beach erosion in the Naples and Marco Island areas led to damage estimated at $5.6 million. Figure 2.30 — Erosion Hotspots, Collier County September 10, 2017 (Tropical Storm) - Hurricane Irma made landfall on September 10, 2017, near Marco Island in Collier County, causing substantial beach erosion. The Florida Department of Environmental Protection reported that the greatest coastal damage occurred along the northeast and central Atlantic coast, the Florida Keys, and Collier County in southwest Florida. In response, Collier County initiated a beach renourishment project estimated at $29 million to repair the damage, including constructing surge barriers such as sand dunes. September 2022 (Tropical Storm) - Hurricane Ian, which struck in September 2022, further exacerbated coastal erosion in Collier County. The U.S. Geological Survey assessed potential coastal change impacts during the hurricane, highlighting the vulnerability of the region's beaches. Following Ian, the Vanderbilt Beach Hurricane Restoration Project was launched, encompassing repairs to the beach access drive, boardwalks, bathroom building, parking garage, and other elements damaged by the storm. 2023: In 2023, Hurricanes Helene and Milton caused additional erosion along Collier County's beaches. Park Shore Beach, in particular, underwent a multi-million dollar renourishment project to restore sand lost due to natural erosion and these hurricanes. Cleanup efforts were also reported in Naples, with crews working to clear debris and sand from streets and beach accesses across the county. These cumulative impacts have led to ongoing restoration projects aimed at mitigating erosion and preserving the county's beaches. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is studying storm risk management in Collier County, a process that began after Hurricane Irma but gained renewed attention following Hurricane Ian. In summary, Collier County has faced significant coastal erosion due to Hurricanes Irma, Ian, Helene, and Milton. The county continues to implement and plan restoration projects to address the damage and enhance resilience against future storms. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 130 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 Non-Storm Related Erosion: Erosion around water control structures, such as weirs and levees, is a concern in Collier County's stormwater management system. The county maintains an extensive network of stormwater infrastructure, including 81 weir structures and 6 pump stations, to manage water flow and mitigate flooding. Regular maintenance is essential to prevent erosion and ensure the functionality of these structures. The county's Stormwater Maintenance Section is responsible for activities such as debris removal, vegetation control, and structural repairs. Specific measures include regrading and revegetating side slopes, embankments, and spillways to address erosion issues. While routine maintenance addresses potential erosion, there have been instances where erosion around water control structures required attention. For example, the county has implemented erosion control measures, such as the use of riprap or other forms of erosion protection, in areas with concentrated water flow to prevent structural damage. The county does not maintain specific records on the number of stormwater structure repairs attributed to erosion, as these repairs are considered part of ongoing maintenance activities. In summary, Collier County proactively manages and maintains its stormwater infrastructure to prevent and address erosion around water control structures, ensuring the system's effectiveness in flood control and water management.

The likelihood of significant instances of erosion will likely be tied to the occurrence of hurricane, tropical storm, and nor'easter events. According to NCEI, 6 events caused reported erosion in the region over the 24-year span between 2000-2023. This equates Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 132 16 F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 to a 25 percent chance of significant erosion occurring every year. Additionally, drawing from the likelihood of hurricanes, tropical storms, and Nor'easters, erosion is likely to occur. • Probability: 3— Likely CLIMATE CHANGE As discussed under Climate Change in Section 0, climate change is expected to make heavy rain events and tropical storms and hurricanes more frequent and intense. As a result, the erosion typically caused by these storms can be expected to occur more frequently. Coastal erosion is also expected to increase as a result of rising seas. A 2018 study found that globally, between 1984 and 2015 erosion outweighed accretion. However, the study could not conclude the degree to which erosion during this period is attributed to climate changes or increased coastal development. Nonetheless, increases in erosion have been observed and are expected to continue. VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT PEOPLE Erosion is unlikely to have any direct impact on the health or safety of individuals. However, it can pose a financial risk. Households and businesses along the shore may have to relocate or make expensive structural changes on their property. Relocating is difficult for anyone, but it can be especially challenging for lower-income individuals. • Population Patterns: o Population growth in beachfront and low-elevation neighborhoods along the Collier Gulf Coast. o Seasonal residents in vulnerable properties increasing exposure during peak hurricane seasons. o Wealthier enclaves at risk of property value declines due to erosion and flooding. o Underserved Populations: Low-income renters in coastal areas may face displacement as property owners convert damaged properties to higher- cost, resilient housing. PROPERTY Erosion can cause buildings to become closer to the water's edge, increasing the likelihood of water inundating a structure. This can lead to damage or destruction of a foundation. In addition to structural repairs, property owners may be subject to higher insurance premiums to account for increased risk. Data is not available on specific property or critical facility risk to erosion. • Land Use/Development Trends: o Construction of beachfront properties and commercial developments near dune systems or on one of the many canals in Collier County. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 133 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 o Hardening of shorelines (e.g., seawalls) limiting natural buffer zones and accelerating erosion. o Rising demand for new housing in elevated inland areas due to perceived risks of sea level rise. o Insufficient adoption of nature-based solutions, such as living shorelines, to address coastal erosion. ENVIRONMENT Erosion can change the shape and characteristics of coastal shorelines and riverine floodplains. Eroded material may clog waterways and decrease drainage capacity. Erosion can also negatively impact water quality by increasing sediment loads in waterways. CONSEQUENCE ANALYSIS Table 2.61 summarizes the potential negative consequences of erosion. Table 2.61 — Consequence Analysis — Erosion Category Consequences Public Erosion is unlikely to impact public health and safety. Responders Erosion is unlikely to require immediate response or rescue operations. Continuity of Operations Erosion is unlikely to impact public continuity of operations. (including Continued Delivery of Services) Property, Facilities and Erosion can result in property damage if it is severe enough or if scour occurs that Infrastructure undermines the integrity of structural foundations. Environment Erosion can increase sediment loads in waterbodies and change riverine and coastal topography. Economic Condition of the Beach re-nourishment projects to counter erosion are extremely costly.Water Jurisdiction dependent industries may suffer from lost shoreline and degraded water quality. Public Confidence in the Erosion is unlikely to impact public confidence. Jurisdiction's Governance HAZARD SUMMARY BY JURISDICTION The following table summarizes erosion hazard risk by jurisdiction. Exposure to erosion varies across jurisdictions, therefore probability and spatial extent are dependent upon the area at risk. Jurisdictions with shoreline at risk were assigned a probability of 3 (likely), an impact of 2 (limited), and a spatial extent of 2 (small). Jurisdictions with little to no shoreline at risk were assigned a probability score of 1 (unlikely), an impact of 1 (minor), and a spatial extent of 1 (negligible). Warning time and duration are inherent to the hazard and remain constant across jurisdictions.

It is a natural and recurring aspect of climate that can occur across nearly all climate zones. The length of a drought can vary significantly. Some droughts develop rapidly and last only briefly, often worsen by extreme heat and wind, and there are other cases when drought spans multiple years or even decades. Studying the paleoclimate record is often helpful in identifying when long-lasting droughts have occurred. Common types of droughts are detailed below in Table 2.62. Table 2.62 — Types of Droughts Type Details Meteorological Drought is based on the degree of dryness (rainfall deficit)and the Meteorological Drought length of the dry period. Agricultural Drought is based on the impacts to agriculture by factors such as rainfall Agricultural Drought deficits, soil water deficits, reduced ground water, or reservoir levels needed for irrigation. Hydrological Drought is based on the impact of rainfall deficits on the water supply Hydrological Drought such as stream flow, reservoir and lake levels, and ground water table decline. Socioeconomic drought is based on the impact of drought conditions (meteorological,agricultural, or hydrological drought)on supply and demand of Socioeconomic Drought some economic goods. Socioeconomic drought occurs when the demand for an economic good exceeds supply as a result of a weather-related deficit in water supply. As these stages evolve over time, the impacts to the economy, society, and environment can converge into an emergency. The wide variety of disciplines affected by drought, its diverse geographical and temporal distribution, and the many scales drought operates on make it difficult to develop both a definition to describe drought and an index to measure it. Many quantitative measures of drought have been developed in the United States, depending on the discipline affected, the region being considered, and the application. Several indices developed by Wayne Palmer, as well as the Standardized Precipitation Index, are useful for describing the many scales of drought. The U.S. Drought Monitor provides a summary of drought conditions across the United States and Puerto Rico. Often described as a blend of art and science, the Drought Monitor map is updated weekly by combining a variety of data-based drought indices and indicators and local expert input into a single composite drought indicator. In 2007, the Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 135 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 state of Florida adopted a Drought Action Plan outlining response strategy for different levels of declared drought. The plan establishes guidelines for coordinating a unified statewide response to drought conditions. The Palmer Drought Severity Index (PDSI) devised in 1965, was the first drought indicator to assess moisture status comprehensively. It uses temperature and precipitation data to calculate water supply and demand, incorporates soil moisture, and is considered most effective for unirrigated cropland. It primarily reflects long-term drought and has been used extensively to initiate drought relief. It is more complex than the Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) and the Drought Monitor. The Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) is a way of measuring drought that is different from the Palmer Drought Severity Index (PDSI). Like the PDSI, this index is negative for drought, and positive for wet conditions. But the SPI is a probability index that considers only precipitation, while Palmer's indices are water balance indices that consider water supply (precipitation), demand (evapotranspiration) and loss (runoff). • Warning Time: 1 — More than 24 hours • Duration: 4 — More than one week LOCATION Since droughts are often regional events that impact multiple counties and states simultaneously, it is reasonable to assume that a drought will impact the entire planning area to some extent. Collier County and its jurisdictions are exposed to drought. • Spatial Extent: 4 — Large Figure 2.31 below notes the U.S. Drought Monitor's drought ratings for Florida as of August 13, 2024; as of that date, Collier County was experiencing no drought.

These include the Plamer Drought Severity Index, the Standardized Precipitation Index, the Keetch-Byram Drought Index, soil moisture levels, and reports on the drought's impact on communities. Figure 2.32 outlines the classifications used by the U.S. Drought Monitor. When a drought reaches a category of D2 (severe) or higher, it often leads to pasture or crop losses, water shortages, and the implementation of water restrictions.

Drought in Florida tend to affect areas where water resources and ecosystems are highly sensitive to dry conditions. Collier County relies on groundwater and surface water sources for drinking water, irrigation, and industry. This makes the planning area particularly vulnerable during periods of prolonged drought. • Impact: 1 — Minor HISTORICAL OCCURRENCES The worst drought in Florida's recorded history was from 1954-1956. Lots of crops and timber were lost. The Northern Counties got the worst part of the drought but most of the State was in drought for all of 1956. Another major drought occurred in 1981-1982 when rain was scarce, and Lake Okeechobee reached the lowest water level ever recorded. All the State was in moderate or severe drought, but many regions were out of drought by the end of 1981. Florida had a severe drought from 1998 to 2001. During this, crops were destroyed, lake levels were at an all-time low, and wildfires raged. This drought caused the water management districts to restrict water use, municipalities to hike water rates, and many restaurants were ordered to stop serving water except for to customers who asked. Several wildfires also occurred in 2007 because of a drought from 2006 to 2007. This period saw the largest rainfall deficit since the 1950s and was considered a one in 25- year drought event. From 2010 to 2012, the State saw a drought that affected most counties, but the northern central and Panhandle regions were classified as in "extreme drought" for an extended period. Again in 2016, drought conditions developed and lasted into 2017 causing many wildfires. Collier County,FL wSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 138 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 There has never been a Presidential Major Disaster Declaration for drought in Florida. However, the USDA has declared agricultural disasters because of drought. Disaster designations help producers get loans and emergency assistance in these situations. U.S. Drought Monitor records drought intensity weekly throughout the country. Table 2.63 presents the number of weeks that Collier County spent in drought by intensity over the period from 2000 through 2024, for which the Drought Monitor has records for 1,289 weeks.

According to the National Drought Mitigation Center's Drought Impact Reporter, during the 13-year period from 2010 through 2023, 44 drought impacts were noted for Collier County. Table 2.64 summarizes the number of impacts reported by category and the years impacts were reported for each category. Note that the Drought Impact Reporter assigns multiple categories to each impact.

Of this time, approximately 199 weeks were categorized as a severe (D2) drought or greater; which equates to over a 15 percent chance of severe drought in any given week. Central and southern Florida is likely to experience 0 to 13 weeks of drought each year. This hazard was determined to occur about every 5 to 10 years. • Probability: 3 - Likely CLIMATE CHANGE According to the Fourth National Climate Assessment, the United States is experiencing a rise in both average and extreme temperatures, with a notable decrease in average annual precipitation in the Southeast. The frequency of heavy precipitation events is increasing, which is likely to lead to a higher number of consecutive dry days. As temperatures are expected to keep rising, evaporation rates will also increase, leading to reduced surface soil moisture. Combined, these trends indicate that drought conditions in the Southeast are expected to become more intense and last longer. VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT PEOPLE Drought affects people in numerous ways, from immediate impacts on water supply and agriculture to broader economic, environmental and health consequences. Drought leads to lower water levels which can reduce availability of safe drinking water. When water is scarce, the cost of water often rises due to higher demand and the need for more expensive water management solutions. This can place a financial burden on households. Prolonged exposure to extreme heat and reduced water availability can lead to health issues such as dehydration, heat stress, and heatstroke. Vulnerable populations such as elderly or those with pre-existing health conditions are particularly at risk. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 140 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 • Population Patterns: o Increased year-round population placing higher demand on limited water resources. o Vulnerable groups, such as agricultural workers and seniors, are more exposed to extreme heat. o Seasonal population peaks contributing to higher water usage during dry periods. o Underserved Populations: Outdoor laborers, such as farmworkers, may have limited access to cooling centers and adequate hydration. Low-income households may struggle with increased utility costs during extreme heat events. PROPERTY Drought is generally unlikely to cause significant damage to the built environment, including private properties and critical facilities. However, in regions characterized by shrinking and expansive soils, drought conditions can potentially lead to structural damage. The reduce in soil moisture can cause soil shrinkage, which may lead to shifting foundations and cracks in buildings and infrastructure. In contrast, the agricultural sector is vulnerable to the impacts of drought. Severe property loss can occur due to substantial crop failures and livestock losses. Drought conditions can significantly diminish soil moisture, impair crop growth, and reduce yields. The USDA's Risk Management Agency (RMA) maintains a database of all paid crop insurance claims; however, no claims were made in Collier County between 2007-2021 as a result of drought. • Land Use/Development Trends: o Expansion of golf courses, artificial lakes, and water-intensive landscaping. o Increased residential and commercial developments with high water usage. o Limited adoption of drought-tolerant landscaping and water-saving infrastructure in new developments. o Development of new infrastructure projects, such as reservoirs or water conservation systems, to address increased demand. ENVIRONMENT Drought can affect local wildlife by shrinking food supplies and damaging habitats. Sometimes this damage is only temporary, and other times it is irreversible. Wildlife may face increased disease rates due to limited access to food and water. Increased stress on endangered species could cause extinction. Another concern during a drought is that contaminants such as pesticides and fertilizers may concentrate in the soil as precipitation wanes and then enter waterways during heavy rains and flooding. Given the cultural and economic importance of water access in Collier County, any increase in contaminant load of the river could adversely affect the planning area. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 141 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 Drought conditions can also provide a substantial increase in wildfire risk. As plants and trees die from a lack of precipitation, increased insect infestations, and diseases—all of which are associated with drought—they become fuel for wildfire. Long periods of drought can result in more intense wildfires, which bring additional consequences for the economy, the environment, and society. Drought may also increase likelihood of wind and water erosion of soils. CONSEQUENCE ANALYSIS Table 2.65 summarizes the potential negative consequences of drought. Table 2.65 — Consequence Analysis - Drought Category Consequences Public Drought can cause impacts on people due to lower water levels, reducing the availability of water,which then makes the cost of water rise due to higher demand. Responders Impacts to responders are unlikely. Exceptional drought conditions may impact the amount of water immediately available to respond to wildfires. Continuity of Operations Drought would have minimal impacts on continuity of operations due to the (including Continued Delivery relatively long warning time that would allow for plans to be made to maintain of Services) continuity of operations. Property, Facilities and Drought has the potential to affect water supply for residential, commercial, Infrastructure institutional, industrial, and government-owned areas. Drought can reduce water supply in wells and reservoirs. Utilities may be forced to increase rates. Environment Environmental impacts include strain on local plant and wildlife; increased probability of erosion and wildfire. Economic Condition of the Farmers may face crop losses or increased livestock costs. Businesses that Jurisdiction depend on farming may experience secondary impacts. Extreme drought has the potential to impact local businesses in landscaping, recreation and tourism, and public utilities. Public Confidence in the When drought conditions persist with no relief, local or State governments must Jurisdiction's Governance often institute water restrictions,which may impact public confidence. HAZARD SUMMARY BY JURISDICTION The following table summarizes drought hazard risk by jurisdiction. Drought risk is uniform across the planning area. Warning time, duration, and spatial extent are inherent to the hazard and remain constant across jurisdictions. Most damages that result from drought are to crops and other agriculture-related activities as well as water-dependent industries; therefore, the magnitude of the impacts is typically greater in unincorporated areas. In more heavily developed areas, the magnitude of drought is less severe, with lawns and local gardens affected and potential impacts on local water supplies during severe, prolonged drought.

In extreme heat, evaporation is slowed, and the body must work extra hard to maintain a normal temperature, which can lead to death by overwork of the body. Extreme heat often results in the highest annual number of deaths among all weather-related disasters. Per Ready.gov: • Extreme heat can occur quickly and without warning • Older adults, children, and sick or overweight individuals are at greater risk from extreme heat • Humidity increases the feeling of heat as measured by heat index Ambient air temperature is one component of heat conditions, with relative humidity being the other. The relationship of these factors creates what is known as the apparent temperature. The Heat Index Chart in Figure 2.34 uses both factors to produce a guide for the apparent temperature or relative intensity of heat conditions.

The shaded zone above 105°F corresponds to a heat index that may cause increasingly severe heat disorders with continued exposure and/or physical activity. During these conditions, the human body has difficulties cooling through the normal method of the evaporation of perspiration. Health risks rise when a person is overexposed to heat. The most dangerous place to be during an extreme heat incident is in a permanent home, with little or no air conditioning. Those at greatest risk for heat-related illness include people 65 years of age and older, young children, people with chronic health problems such as heart disease, people who are obese, people who are socially isolated, and people who are on certain medications, such as tranquilizers, antidepressants, sleeping pills, or drugs for Parkinson's disease. However, even young and healthy individuals are susceptible if they participate in strenuous physical activities during hot weather or are not acclimated to hot weather. Table 2.66 lists typical symptoms and health impacts of heat exposure. Table 2.66 — Typical Health Impacts of Extreme Heat Heat Index(HI) Disorder 80-90° F (HI) Fatigue possible with prolonged exposure and/or physical activity 90-105° F(HI) Sunstroke, heat cramps, and heat exhaustion possible with prolonged exposure and/or physical activity 105-130° F (HI) Heatstroke/sunstroke highly likely with continued exposure Source: National Weather Service Heat Index Program, www.weather.gov/os/heat/index.shtml The NWS has a system in place to initiate alert procedures (advisories or warnings)when the Heat Index is expected to have a significant impact on public safety. The expected severity of the heat determines whether advisories or warnings are issued. Criteria for heat advisories and warnings are discussed below under Extent. Impacts of extreme heat are not only focused on human health, as prolonged heat exposure can have devastating impacts on infrastructure as well. Prolonged high heat exposure increases the risk of pavement deterioration, as well as railroad warping or buckling. High heat also puts a strain on energy systems and consumption, as air conditioners are run at a higher rate and for longer; extreme heat can also reduce transmission capacity over electric systems. • Warning Time: 1 — More than 24 hours • Duration: 3— Less than one week LOCATION Collier County and its jurisdictions are susceptible to high temperatures and incidents of extreme heat. • Spatial Extent: 4 — Large Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 144 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,202 V r EXTENT The extent of extreme heat can be defined by the maximum apparent temperature reached. Apparent temperature is a function of ambient air temperature and relative humidity and is reported as the heat index. The NWS Southern Region sets the following criteria for heat advisory and excessive heat warning: • Heat Advisory — Heat Index of 108°F or higher or temperature of 103°F or higher • Excessive Heat Warning — Heat Index of 113°F or higher for any duration or temperature of 103°F or higher Table 2.67 notes the highest temperature on record at nine weather stations in Collier County according to the NWS, which maintains temperature records for the highest maximum temperature each month.

Based on 22 years of available data, the Region regularly experiences maximum temperatures year-round that can impact public health and safety. • Probability: 4 — Highly Likely CLIMATE CHANGE Research shows that average temperatures will continue to rise in the Southeast United States and globally, directly affecting Collier County. Per the Fourth National Climate Assessment, "extreme temperatures are projected to increase even more than average temperatures. Cold waves are projected to become less intense and heat waves more intense." The number of days over 95°F is expected to increase by between 20 and 30 days annually, as shown in Figure 2.35. Daily minimum temperatures (overnight lows) have increased at a faster rate than maximum temperatures (afternoon highs). The number of days with high minimum temperatures (nighttime temperatures that stay above 75°F) has been increasing across the Southeast, and this trend is projected to intensify, with some areas experiencing more Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 146 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 1 6 F 4 than 100 additional warm nights per year by the end of the century. Exposure to high nighttime minimum temperatures reduces the ability of some people to recover from high daytime temperatures, resulting in heat-related illness and death.

PEOPLE Extreme heat can cause heat stroke and even loss of human life. The elderly and the very young are most at risk to the effects of heat. People who are isolated are also more vulnerable to extreme heat. The 2022 American Community Survey 5-year estimates report 15,873 County residents under 5 years old and 124,784 residents 65 or older. Together that is 37% of residents that are especially vulnerable to impacts from extreme heat. • Population Patterns: o Increased year-round population placing higher demand on limited water resources throughout Collier County. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 147 F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 6 o Vulnerable groups, such as agricultural workers, children and seniors, are more exposed to extreme heat. o Seasonal population peaks contributing to higher water usage during winter dry periods. o Underserved Populations: Outdoor laborers, such as farmworkers, may have limited access to cooling centers and adequate hydration. Low-income households may struggle with increased utility costs during extreme heat events. PROPERTY Extreme heat is unlikely to cause significant damages to the built environment. However, road surfaces can be damaged as asphalt softens, and concrete sections may buckle under expansion caused by heat. Train rails may also distort or buckle under the stress of head induced expansion. Power transmission lines may sag from expansion and if contact is made with vegetation the line may short out causing power outages. Additional power demand for cooling also increases power line temperature adding to heat impacts. • Land Use/Development Trends: o Expansion of golf courses, artificial lakes, and water-intensive landscaping. o Increased residential and commercial developments with high water usage. o Limited adoption of drought-tolerant landscaping and water-saving infrastructure in new developments. o Development of new infrastructure projects, such as reservoirs or water conservation systems, to address increased demand Extreme heat can also cause significant agricultural losses. Between 2007-2024, the USDA Risk Management Agency reports one crop insurance claim due to heat in Collier County in the amount of$39,330. This equates to an average annual loss of$3,278. ENVIRONMENT Wild animals are vulnerable to heat disorders like humans, including mortality. Vegetation growth will be stunted, or plants may be killed if temperatures rise above their tolerance extremes.

Sea level rise is a result of global climate change. Climate change is a natural occurrence in which the earth has warmed and cooled periodically over geologic time. However, the recent and rapid warming of the earth over the past century has been cause for concern, as this warming is very likely due to the accumulation of human-caused greenhouse gases, such as CO2, in the atmosphere (IPCC, 2007). This warming is occurring almost everywhere in the world which suggests a global cause rather than changes in localized weather patterns. In 2018, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) reported with high confidence that warming due to such emissions will cause long-term changes in the climate system such as sea level rise and its associated impacts. There are generally two separate mechanics involved in global sea level rise. The first is directly attributed to global temperature increases, which warm the oceans waters and cause them to expand. The second is attributed to the melting of ice over land, which simply adds water to the oceans. Global sea level rise is likely caused by a combination Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 149 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 of these two mechanics and can be exasperated on the local level by factors such as erosion and subsidence. The rate of sea level rise has varied throughout geologic history, and studies have shown that global temperature and sea level are strongly correlated. Due to sea-level rise projected throughout the 21st century and beyond, coastal systems and low-lying areas will increasingly experience adverse impacts such as submergence, coastal flooding, and coastal erosion. The population and assets projected to be exposed to coastal risks as well as human pressures on coastal ecosystems will increase significantly in the coming decades due to population growth, economic development, and urbanization (IPCC, 2014). Collier County is particularly vulnerable to the effects of sea level rise due to its coastal location, subtropical environment, low topography and tourism economy. • Warning Time: 1 — More than 24 hours • Duration: 4 — More than one week LOCATION Sea level rise can occur anywhere along the coast and along major waterways in Collier County. The Coastal Vulnerability Index (CVI), developed by United States Geological Survey (USGS), provides a preliminary overview of the relative susceptibility of the United States coast to sea level rise. The CVI is based on geomorphology, regional coastal slope, tide range, wave height, relative sea level rise, and shoreline erosion and acceleration rates. For each study area, each variable is scored on a 1-5 scale based on defined parameters, where "1" indicates low contribution to coastal vulnerability and "5" indicates high contribution to vulnerability. These scores are then aggregated into a single index through a mathematical formula. The resulting index gives an overview of where physical changes may occur due to sea-level rise. Figure 2.36 shows the CVI for Collier County. The coastline between Naples and Marco Island is the most vulnerable area in the region, rated high on the CVI. The remainder of the coastline is rated as having moderate vulnerability. Collier County and it's jurisdictions are susceptible to sea level rise and other climate change characteristics. • Spatial Extent: 3— Moderate Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 150 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT September 27,2024 Figure 2.36 — Coastal Vulnerability Index, Collier County A Immokalee Reservation Naples tQ, ( :00s7� A Marco Island ,.b tjlt 0 0, x---.

The estimated impacts of 1-foot, 2-foot, and 3-foot, sea level rise are shown in Figure 2.37. The sea level rise estimate maps show inundation above mean higher high water(the average of each day's higher high tide line). Sea level rise will likely affect coastal marsh lands as well as land along rivers, canals, and their tributaries. Additionally, sea level rise will likely increase future risk of flooding from the other flood hazards discussed in this plan, as more land will have a lower elevation relative to sea level. For example, with much of the barrier islands and wetlands inundated, inland areas will lose their natural protection and may become susceptible to coastal flooding with velocity wave action.

However, sea level rise has already begun to cause "clear sky" or "nuisance" flooding, which is brought on by high tidewaters rather than storm or rain events. Tidal flooding causes temporary inundation of low-lying areas during high-tide events. The 2022 NOAA Sea Level Rise Technical Report finds that the national rate of high-tide flooding has more than doubled since 2000 due to sea level rise. NOAA projects that by 2050 high tide flooding events will occur 45 to 70 days a year, triple the current rate. While sea level rise increases the frequency of these events, it also is expected to increase the depth and extent of tidal flooding. Figure 2.38 shows areas in Collier County that are susceptible to high tide flooding as defined by NOAA based on derived national flood thresholds from NOAA Technical Report NOS CO-OPS 086: Patterns and Projections of High Tide Flooding along the U.S. Coastline Using a Common Impact Threshold. • Impact: 3— Critical Figure 2.38 — Areas Susceptible to High Tide Flooding, Collier County [,yYy��j�F.�j v I .7R:'�•�,•PI Q cower County FL.USA 1114L ce f acresDIrI } 1i 6dldn ar. rsmM1 l •-4 r•+ - �kR rNb• '` „r ), �'v yy,� 1 n r.r+war.

Changes in Mean Sea Level (MSL), either a sea level rise or sea level fall, have been computed at 142 long- term water level stations using a minimum span of 30 years of observations at each location. These measurements have been averaged by month to remove the effect of higher frequency phenomena (e.g. storm surge) in order to compute an accurate linear sea level trend. Figure 2.39 illustrates regional trends in sea level from NOAA. At the Naples, FL station (indicated by the yellow arrow in Collier County), the relative sea level trend is 3.35 mm/year with a 95% confidence interval of +/- 0.42 mm/year based on monthly mean sea level data from 1965 to 2023 which is equivalent to a change of 1.10 feet in 100 years. It should be noted that the Naples, FL station only contains data until 2023 and has been inactive since the beginning of 2024.

Figure 2.41 uses SLAT's scenario projections for the Naples, FL station. The model assumes a rate of 3.35 mm of sea level rise per year (or 1.1 ft/100 years) based on observed sea level rise at the Naples station between March 1965 and December 2023. It incorporates an equation-based projection that uses July 1992 as its projected point in time and factors in three potential scenarios — low, intermediate, and high - that reflect future emission levels. Given that the USACE low scenario does not consider further climate change, the USACE intermediate and high scenarios are more likely. However, the likelihood of either scenario — intermediate or high — is dependent on future emissions, and WSP selected the more conservative estimate of the intermediate scenario for this analysis. To estimate the potential sea level rise by 2050, the monthly MSL observed at the Naples station in July 1992 was compared to the July 2050 projected MSL. Based on an intermediate emissions scenario, Collier County should plan for 1 .02 feet of sea level rise from 1992 levels by 2050. • Probability: 3 — Likely Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 155 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT Figure 2.41 — Sea Level Rise Projections for Collier County (1992-2100) Sea Level Data and Projections: Naples, Gulf Of Mexico, FL (8725110) NOAA Tide Gauge Feet above North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (1983-2001 epoch) 1.26ft f _ .82 h + � ' Iff ti � Ir, � r -2 1970 1930 1990 2^00 2010 __ 2030 2040 2650 2120 21ae Click on legend items to hidefshow them In the pIo: —MSL-Monthly Value -- MSL-USACE 2019-High MSL-USACE 2019-Intermediate -- MSL-USACE 2019-Low MSL-Custom Record(1965-2023)Trend SLC rate used in equation based projections 3 35 mmiyr(1 1 ft(100 yrs) SLC source:NOAA-NOS Tides&Currents Trend(Mar 1965-Dec 2023) Source: USACE, 2024 CLIMATE CHANGE Sea level rise is a direct result of global climate change. Estimates for sea level rise are based on projected greenhouse gas emission levels and their associated impacts on global temperature change. Most sea level rise models do not fully account for ice melt, and therefore actual sea level rise may be significantly higher than current estimates suggest. As such, these projections contain substantial variability but are nonetheless important to consider when planning for coastal areas because they indicate where flooding can be expected should actual sea level rise meet estimated levels. VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT METHODOLOGIES AND ASSUMPTIONS Vulnerability to sea level rise was assessed based on past occurrences nationally and internationally as well as data from NOAA, USGS, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), and other sources. PEOPLE Sea level rise will lead to increased flooding and the associated harms to humans, such as illness, or injury or death from driving into flooded waters and drowning. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 156 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT Population at risk to 1-, 2-, and 3-feet of sea level rise was estimated based on the exposure of residential property. Counts of residential buildings exposed to sea level rise were multiplied by a household factor for each jurisdiction, based on the 2018-2022 American Community Survey's average household size. The resulting estimates of population at risk are shown in Table 2.70. Overall, an estimated 7,272 people live in areas that may be directly impacted by up to three feet or less of sea level rise. Note that there is no property exposure to sea level rise in the Immokalee area; therefore, it is excluded from this analysis. • Population Patterns: o Population growth in beachfront and low-elevation neighborhoods along the Gulf Coast. o Seasonal residents in vulnerable properties increasing exposure during peak hurricane seasons. o Wealthier enclaves at risk of property value declines due to erosion and flooding. o Underserved Populations: Low-income renters in coastal areas may face displacement as property owners convert damaged properties to higher- cost, resilient housing.

Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 157 I 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT PROPERTY The increased number of flood days and general encroachment of shoreline associated with sea level rise will likely cause water damage to homes, businesses and vehicles. Homes within the areas that may be inundated will potentially be uninhabitable. Additionally, rising seas, and associated increased flood days, can overwhelm and undermine the effectiveness of stormwater drainage system and other infrastructure, such as roads and bridges. • Land Use/Development Trends: o Construction of beachfront properties and commercial developments near dune systems. o Hardening of shorelines (e.g., seawalls) limiting natural buffer zones and accelerating erosion. o Rising demand for new housing in elevated inland areas due to perceived risks of sea level rise. o Insufficient adoption of nature-based solutions, such as living shorelines, to address coastal erosion. To estimate the potential impact to properties in Collier County, WSP conducted an analysis that intersected parcels in Collier County with NOAA sea level rise data. The analysis included three potential sea level rise scenarios — 1, 2, and 3 ft above average high tides. Results for the county and participating jurisdictions are shown in the tables below. Due to its inland location, 1-3 ft of sea level rise does not impact the Seminole Tribe Immokalee Reservation, and therefore, it is excluded from this analysis.

Public Confidence in the Sea level rise is unlikely to impact public confidence. Jurisdiction's Governance HAZARD SUMMARY BY JURISDICTION The following table summarizes sea level rise risk by jurisdiction. Most jurisdictions face at least some risk from sea level rise, but coastal and waterfront areas have greater exposure. Spatial extent varies by jurisdiction depending on the area exposed to sea level rise impacts. Given that the Seminole Tribe Immokalee Reservation is located inland, it receives a negligible rating, while Marco Island and Naples are primarily coastal and experience a high spatial risk. Unincorporated Collier County includes both inland and coastal areas, so its spatial extent is moderate.

Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 162 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT 2.5.8 SINKHOLES HAZARD BACKGROUND Sinkholes are a natural and common geologic feature in areas with underlying limestone and other rock types that are soluble in natural water. Most limestone is porous, allowing the acidic water of rain to percolate through their strata, dissolving some limestone and carrying it away in solution. Over time, this persistent erosional process can create extensive underground voids and drainage systems in much of the carbonate rocks. Collapse of overlying sediments into the underground cavities produces sinkholes. The three general types of sinkholes are: subsidence, solution, and collapse. Collapse sinkholes are most common in areas where the overburden (the sediments and water contained in the unsaturated zone, surficial aquifer system, and the confining layer above an aquifer) is thick, but the confining layer is breached or absent. Collapse sinkholes can form with little warning and leave behind a deep, steep sided hole. Subsidence sinkholes form gradually where the overburden is thin and only a veneer of sediments is overlying the limestone. Solution sinkholes form where no overburden is present, and the limestone is exposed at land surface. Figure 2.42 illustrates the rock formation in the United States. Salt and Gypsum underline about 40 percent of the contiguous in the United States, while Carbonate Karst landscapes constitutes about 40 percent of the United States east of Tulsa, Oklahoma. Sinkholes occur in many shapes, from steep-walled holes to bowl or cone shaped depressions. Sinkholes are dramatic because the land generally stays intact for a while until the underground spaces get too big. If there is not enough support for the land above the spaces, then a collapse of the land surface can occur. Under natural conditions, sinkholes form slowly and expand gradually. However, human activities such as dredging, constructing reservoirs, diverting surface water, and pumping groundwater can accelerate the rate of sinkhole expansions, resulting in the abrupt formation of collapse sinkholes. Although a sinkhole can form without warning, specific signs can signal potential development: • Slumping or falling fenceposts, trees, or foundations. • Sudden formation of small ponds; • Wilting vegetation. • Discolored well water; and/or • Structural cracks in walls, floors. Sinkhole formation is aggravated and accelerated by urbanization. Development increases water usage, alters drainage pathways, overloads the ground surface, and redistributes soil. According to FEMA, the number of human-induced sinkholes has doubled since 1930, insurance claims for damages as a result of sinkholes has increased 1 ,200 percent from 1987 to 1991, costing nearly $100 million. • Warning Time: 4 — Less than six hours Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 163 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT • Duration: 4 — More than 1 week Figure 2.42 — Rock Formations in the United States .,11:, • • --‘,,,opr -freip, A 46.06, d a r'i.

The area is characterized by a prevalent limestone bedrock, which is particularly susceptible to erosion due to its solubility in acidic water. This erosion can create voids underground that, when supported, may lead to sudden collapse of the surface, resulting in sinkholes. In addition to natural processes, human activities play a critical role in the potential for sinkhole development. Soil piping, a phenomenon where water erodes soil and creates channels underground, can be exacerbated by leakage from drainage systems, collapsed water mains, or sewer lines. Failed culverts and other infrastructure failures can further compromise soil stability, increasing the likelihood of erosion and sinkhole formation. Collier County and its jurisdictions are susceptible to sinkholes. Although underlying geological risk is widespread, any individual sinkhole affects only a very small area relative to the planning area. The locations of past sinkhole events in the county are shown in Figure 2.43. • Spatial Extent: 1 — Negligible Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 164 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT Figure 2.43 — Sinkhole Locations in Collier County A Immokalee Reservation Naples Marco Island y/try •f Everglades 0 10 20 Miles Collier County,FL Sink Hole Locations t)ate: 8/29/2024 Source: Florida Geological Survey NAD 1983 State Mane Legend Prepared By: LE Projection: Florida East FIPS 0901(US Feet) Municipality I� � I I Collier County Collier Count\ O Sinkholes Source: Florida Geological Survey Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 165 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT EXTENT Sinkholes are inherently unpredictable geological phenomena that can lead to significant consequences when they occur. Their size can vary dramatically, ranging from a few feet in diameter to expansive depressions that can cover hundreds of acres. In terms of depth, they can be as shallow as less than one foot or plunge deeper than 100 feet. The shape of sinkholes can also differ widely; some are broad and shallow, resembling bowls or saucers, while others exhibit steep, vertical walls that create a more cavernous appearance. In Florida, many sinkholes can fill with water, forming natural ponds that may become unique ecosystems. Despite their potential severity, there is currently no formal scale for measuring the extent or impact of sinkholes, which complicates efforts to assess risk and respond effectively. The unpredictability of sinkholes poses a challenge in urban environments, where the presence of infrastructure such as roads, bridges, and buildings increases the potential for catastrophic damage. When a sinkhole forms beneath a structure, it can lead to sudden and extensive catastrophic damage resulting in hazardous conditions and significant repair costs. Moreover, sinkholes can threaten local water resources by contaminating groundwater supplies as they connect surface water with deeper aquifers. They have been known to consume a variety of objects, including vehicles, swimming pools, sections of roadways, and even entire buildings, leading to both immediate physical dangers and long-term impacts on community infrastructure. In some cases, sinkholes in Florida have measured up to 35 feet in depth with similar widths. The extent of sinkhole activity in the area is measured by the dimensions and/or frequency of these events. Per Florida Geological Survey records, the largest known sinkhole in Collier County was 12 feet deep, recorded in 2000. However specific details of its exact location is not readily available. • Impact: 2— Limited PAST OCCURRENCES There have been four recorded sinkholes in Collier County between 2000 and 2023. Past sinkhole incidents reported by the Florida Geological Survey for Collier County are recorded below in Table 2.77.

In May 2000, there was an increase in sinkhole development which was believed to be caused by lowered groundwater as a result of the 1998 drought. Drought conditions exacerbate the natural processes that lead to sinkhole formation by reducing the water table, which decreases the pressure on underground limestone formations and allows for greater erosions. The most recent reported sinkhole occurred in September 2018. While specific details regarding this incident were limited and it was classified as a small sinkhole, it serves as a reminder of the ongoing geological activity in the region. However, a more significant sinkhole event was reported in July 2018, triggered by a pipe burst. This particular incident caused a section of U.S. in East Naples to collapse, highlighting the potential for infrastructure vulnerabilities to exacerbate sinkholes risks. Many underground pipes may be vulnerable to cracks and leaks due to age, increasing likelihood of cracks and leaks. Such failures can lead to localized erosion, subsidence, or even the formation of new sinkholes as water escapes and alters the stability of the surrounding soil. As the County continues to develop and urbanize, monitoring the integrity of underground utilities becomes increasingly important to mitigate risks associated with sinkholes. Sinkholes are relatively rare in Collier County compared to other regions of Florida due to the county's geological characteristics, which differ significantly from areas prone to frequent sinkhole formation, such as Central Florida. The reasons for the rarity of sinkholes in Collier County include: • Geology and Soil Composition: o Collier County primarily consists of sandy soils, limestone, and a deep layer of clay, which helps to prevent the rapid erosion of underground materials that typically lead to sinkhole formation. o The limestone in Collier County is generally more stable and less prone to dissolution compared to the highly porous limestone found in other parts of Florida, such as the central region. • Depth of the Limestone Bedrock: o In Collier County, the limestone bedrock that could potentially dissolve is located much deeper beneath the surface compared to areas like Central Florida. The overlying layers of sand and clay provide a protective barrier, reducing the likelihood of void formation that could result in a sinkhole. • Water Table Stability: o The region has a relatively stable and high-water table due to the presence of extensive wetlands, such as the Everglades, which helps to maintain hydrostatic pressure and prevent the collapse of underground cavities. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 167 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT • Hydrogeological Conditions: o In areas where water flow is slow and steady, the dissolution of underlying carbonate rock happens over a longer period, reducing the likelihood of sudden collapses. o In contrast, areas with fluctuating groundwater levels (due to heavy withdrawals or drought conditions) experience a higher risk of sinkholes, which is less common in Collier County. • Land Use and Development Patterns: o Collier County has experienced less intense urban development compared to areas like Tampa and Orlando, where human activities such as construction and groundwater pumping can accelerate sinkhole formation. • Lack of Aggressive Aquifer Pumping: o Excessive groundwater withdrawal can lead to sinkhole formation by creating voids in the underlying rock. In Collier County, water management practices are generally more conservative due to the area's natural hydrology. In summary, the combination of deeper limestone layers, stable groundwater levels, and the protective overburden of sand and clay makes sinkholes a rare occurrence in Collier County compared to other parts of Florida. PROBABILITY OF FUTURE OCCURRENCE Sinkholes remain a possibility in localized areas of Collier County and are caused by both human activity and as naturally occurring events. Based on previous events, sinkholes are not likely to occur in Collier County but are possible based on the substantial limestone formations and karst landscapes. Human activity such as construction and excavation can disrupt the natural stability of the ground, making sink holes more likely. Impacts from such events would likely cause minimal localized damage, though potentially significant service interruptions caused by infrastructure damage and road closures. • Probability: 1 — Unlikely CLIMATE CHANGE Direct effects from global warming and climate change such as an increase in droughts, floods and hurricanes could contribute to an increase in sinkholes. Climate change raises the likelihood of extreme weather, meaning the torrential rain and flooding conditions which often lead to the exposure of sinkholes are likely to become increasingly common. Global warming is leading to more frequent and severe weather events. Including intense storms, hurricanes, and heavy rainfall. The extreme weather conditions can significant impact the hydrological cycle and exacerbate environmental factors contributing to sinkhole formation. Certain events such as a hurricane following a period of drought can trigger a sinkhole due to low levels of groundwater combined with a heavy influx of rain. As discussed in Sections 2.5.5 Drought, 2.5.1 Flood, and 0 Tropical Cyclones, potential Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 168 16r- 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT increases in these contributing events are possible. Therefore, an increase in the occurrence of sinkholes in the future is possible. VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT PEOPLE A person's vulnerability to sinkholes is closely tied to several factors, the most significant being the speed at which the sinkholes forms and whether the individual is directly situated above or near it when it occurs. The sudden and unpredictable nature of sinkholes can make it extremely dangerous for those in the immediate vicinity, especially if there is little to no warning. Historical records highlight numerous tragic incidents in which people have lost their lived due to sinkholes suddenly opening beneath their homes, trapping occupants. In such cases, the rapid collapse of the ground often leaves no time for evacuation or rescue. Similarly, motor vehicle fatalities can occur when driver, unaware of the hazard, were unable to stop in time and before authorities could establish protective barriers or warning signs. These scenarios underscore the severe risks sinkholes pose when they occur without notice, leaving individuals exposed to life- threatening dangers. • Population Patterns: o Population growth in areas with limestone bedrock, particularly in inland neighborhoods. o Increased residential density near known sinkhole-prone zones increases the risk of displacement. o Vulnerable groups, such as low-income populations, may lack financial resources for repairs or relocation. o Underserved Populations: Residents of older housing developments may be more exposed to sinkhole risks due to outdated infrastructure and minimal maintenance. PROPERTY Like the vulnerability of individuals, the susceptibility of property to sinkhole-related damage is influenced by a wide range of factors, with the speed at which the sinkhole develops being a major determinant. The sudden formation of a sinkhole can lead to devastating consequences for structures and infrastructure located directly above or near the affected area. For properties situated above large sinkholes that collapse rapidly, the damage can be catastrophic, resulting in a variety of serious issues. These may include cracked or destabilized foundations, which can compromise the integrity of buildings, damage to roadways that can impede transportation and emergency access, and the destruction of vehicles or other personal property. In the worst cases, entire structures can be rendered uninhabitable or beyond repair, necessitating costly rebuilding or relocation efforts. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 169 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT • Land Use/Development Trends: o Expansion of subdivisions in previously undeveloped areas with minimal geological surveys. o Increased groundwater extraction due to residential and commercial growth, contributing to sinkhole formation. o Development of critical infrastructure, such as roads and utilities, over potential sinkhole zones without adequate geotechnical assessments. Despite the known risks, data on the potential property or critical facility losses associated with sinkholes is often lacking. Comprehensive estimates remain elusive due to the unpredictability of sinkhole occurrences, variations in regional geology, and the difficulties involved in assessing subterranean conditions before a collapse occurs. This absence of detailed information makes it challenging to fully grasp the economic impact of sinkholes, especially when it comes to damage prevention and mitigation efforts. ENVIRONMENT Sinkholes are predominantly naturally occurring geological events, and because of their origin in natural processes, their overall impact on the environment is typically minimal. While sinkholes can cause sudden and dramatic shifts in the landscape, the damage they inflict on natural areas is often localized and temporary. Ecosystems in affected regions tend to adapt and recover relatively quickly, as the surrounding environment is already accustomed to changes in the terrain and soil structure over time. CONSEQUENCE ANALYSIS Table 2.78 summarizes the potential negative consequences of sinkhole. Table 2.78 — Consequence Analysis — Sinkhole Category Consequences Public Impacts are minimal to public at large. Individuals directly affected could be injured or experience anxiety or depression about economic and property losses. Responders First responders will be impacted similarly to other events that have no advance warning. Continuity of Operations Continuity of operations is generally not disrupted by sinkholes. (including Continued Delivery of Services) Property, Facilities and Although sinkhole extents are localized, buildings located on or adjacent to a Infrastructure sinkhole are susceptible to foundation damage or building collapse. In a worst case scenario, if a building is located close enough to a sinkhole it can be destroyed. Remediation costs can be high due to costly foundation shoring or cost of stabilization of the sinkhole itself. Environment Sinkholes are natural occurring process and local plants and animals adjust quickly. Many naturally occurring sinkholes fill with rainwater creating new aquatic habitat. Economic Condition of the Sinkholes located in open areas or that impact only small numbers of buildings, Jurisdiction while having a high impact to the local property owner, do not have substantial impacts to the economy. Sinkholes that open in major traffic thoroughfares can include significant impact to daily work traffic and flow of goods.

Winter storm related hazards include snow, sleet, freezing rain, or a mix of these wintry forms of precipitation, as well as cold temperatures and freeze. Some winter storms might be large enough to affect several states, while others might affect only localized areas. All winter storm events have the potential to present dangerous conditions to the affected area. A heavy snow event is defined by the NWS as an accumulation of 4 of more inches in 12 hours or less. Large snowfalls pose a greater risk, reducing visibility due to blowing snow and making driving conditions treacherous. A blizzard is the most severe form of winter storm. It combines low temperatures, heavy snow, and winds of 35 miles per hour or more, which reduces visibility to a quarter mile or less for at least 3 hours. Ice storms are defined as storms with significant amounts of freezing rain. With warmer air above, falling precipitation in the form of snow melts, then becomes either super- cooled (liquid below the melting point of water) or re-freezes. In the former case, super- cooled droplets can freeze on impact (freezing rain), while in the latter case, the re-frozen water particles are ice pellets (or sleet). Sleet is defined as partially frozen raindrops or refrozen snowflakes that form into small ice pellets before reaching the ground. They typically bounce when they hit the ground. Sleet does not stick to the ground but can accumulate like snow, posing similar problems and has the potential to accumulate into Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 171 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT a layer of ice on surfaces. Freezing rain, conversely, usually sticks to the ground, creating a sheet of ice on the roadways and other surfaces. All the winter storm elements—snow, low temperatures, sleet, and ice—have the potential to cause significant hazard to a community. Even small accumulations can down power lines and trees limbs and create hazardous driving conditions and disrupt communication and power for days. Freeze events are also particularly hazardous as they can create treacherous surfaces. Freezing temperatures can also affect crops and pasture. Many of these winter storm related hazards are not relevant to south Florida; however, extreme cold and freeze can affect the planning area. Advancements in meteorology and forecasting usually allow for mostly accurate forecasting a few days in advance of an impending storm. Most winter storms have a duration of a few hours; however, cold temperatures and freeze can last longer periods. • Warning Time: 1 — More than 24 hours • Duration: 3— Less than 1 week LOCATION Severe winter storms are usually a countywide or regional hazard, impacting the entire county at the same time. The risk of a severe winter storm occurring is uniform across Collier County. Collier County and its jurisdictions are vulnerable to winter storms and freezes. • Spatial Extent: 4 — Large EXTENT NOAA uses the Regional Snowfall Index (RSI) to assess the societal impact of winter storms in the six easternmost regions in the United States. The index makes use of population and regional differences to assess the impact of snowfall. It is shown in Table 2.79. For example, areas which receive very little snowfall on average may be more adversely affected than other regions, resulting in a higher severity. For central and southern Florida, a Winter Storm Warning is issued when any snow or sleet amount to more than a half inch. However, amounts as small as 0.1 inch can significantly impact transportation and agriculture among other things. According to official NWS records, there has never been any snowfall or accumulation of snow in Collier County, Florida.

The magnitude of an event can be defined based on the severity of each of the involved factors, including precipitation type, precipitation accumulation amounts, temperature, and wind. The NWS Wind Chill Temperature Index, shown in Figure 2.44, provides a formula for calculating the dangers of winter winds and freezing temperatures.

Source: http://www.nws.noaa.gov/om/winter/windchill.shtml • Impact: 2— Limited The degree of exposure to winter storm and freeze typically depends on the normal expected severity of local winter weather. Collier County is not accustomed to severe winter weather conditions and often receives little to no winter weather during the winter months. Given the atmospheric nature of the hazard, the entire County has uniform exposure to a winter storm. HISTORICAL OCCURRENCES To get a full picture of the range of impacts of a severe winter storm, data for the following weather types tracked by NCEI were collected: Blizzard, Cold/Wind Chill, Extreme Cold/Wind Chill, Frost/Freeze, Heavy Snow, Ice Storm, Sleet, Winter Storm, and Winter Weather. Only Extreme Cold/Wind Chill and Frost/Freeze events have been recorded in Collier County. These events are defined by the NWS as follows: • Extreme Cold/Wind Chill — A period of extremely low temperatures or wind chill temperatures reaching or exceeding locally/regionally defined warning criteria, defined as wind chill -15°F or lower with wind speeds 10 mph (9 kt) or greater. • Frost/Freeze — A surface air temperature of 32°F or lower, or the formation of ice crystals on the ground or other surfaces, for a period long enough to cause human or economic impact, during the locally defined growing season. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 173 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT Table 2.80 summarizes the recorded severe winter storm events that have impacted Collier County according to the NCEI Storm Events Database for the 24-year period from 2000 through 2023. As reported in NCEI, severe winter weather did not cause any fatalities, injuries, or property damage, but did cause some crop damage. Some of these types of impacts may not have been reported and are possible in future events. Impacts in Collier County by incident are recorded in Table 2.81.

This does not include additional deaths related to carbon monoxide poisoning from using improper heating sources. A freeze in January 2010 led to agricultural losses of over $200 million. The USDA declared 59 out of 67 counties in a state of natural disaster for agricultural production during this freeze. Storm impacts from NCEI are summarized below: January 5, 2001 — A freeze occurred throughout the interior sections of south Florida, causing damage to certain crops. Hardest hit were certain vegetable crops with 75% losses in Hendry and east Collier counties and 30% losses in the farming areas of south Miami-Dade County. Other crops that were damaged included newly planted sugar cane, ornamentals, and tropical fruits. A heavy frost occurred in the western suburbs of Miami- Dade, Broward and Palm Beach metropolitan areas. Several daily minimum temperature records were broken. Selected minimum temperatures included 27 degrees at Belle Glade, 29 degrees in the Homestead agricultural area, 31 degrees in Naples, 39 degrees at Miami International Airport and 43 degrees in Miami Beach. January 22, 2009 — An arctic cold front moved through South Florida on January 20th. High pressure of arctic origin settled over the region behind the cold front, bringing freezing temperatures to much of South Florida on the mornings of January 21 and 22. Temperatures dropped to below freezing over most of interior South Florida on the morning of January 22. Temperatures bottomed out as low as the mid-20s over portions of Glades, Hendry and Collier counties. Readings in the upper 20s to around 30 were observed over inland sections of Palm Beach County, with near freezing temperatures of 30-32 degrees over inland sections of Broward and Miami-Dade counties. In addition to the freezing temperatures, widespread heavy frost formed over most of interior and northern sections of South Florida. Crop damage was extensive in some areas, with total losses to bean and corn crops in parts of western Palm Beach County. Losses to tomato and strawberry crops were also noted in Hendry and Collier counties. December 28, 2010 —Temperatures across inland sections of Collier County fell into the upper 20s to low 30s with the coldest temperatures reported across far north and east sections on the morning of the 28th. The coldest temperatures during this period were: 26 degrees in The Florida Panther NWR, 27 degrees in Golden Gate Estates, and 29 degrees in Immokalee. Extensive damage to crops and frost were reported. Crop damage amount estimate of$0.96 million is for all of Collier County and represents the combined total of all three December freeze events. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 175 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION &RISK ASSESSMENT Collier County has never received an emergency declaration for incidents related to severe winter storms. As a state, Florida has also never received any disaster declarations related to severe winter storms. PROBABILITY OF FUTURE OCCURRENCE NCEI records show 32 severe winter storm related events during the 24-year period from 2000 through 2023, which is an average of 1.33 events per year or about a 133 percent probability in any given year. Breaking up these events by type and intensity, it can be estimated that: • A freeze may be expected in Collier County every one to two years. • Severe freezes that lead to significant crop loss ($100,000+) can be expected about once every ten years in Collier County. • Southern Florida is likely to experience between 2 and 4 days of winter weather annually. • Probability: 3 — Likely CLIMATE CHANGE Climate change is not expected to increase the frequency or magnitude of winter storms and freezes in Florida. However, climate change does not mean that winter storms would not continue to occur in the State. Climate change could cause more variability in daily temperature and thus create a prolonged winter storm or freeze. VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT PEOPLE Winter storms are considered deceptive killers because most deaths are indirectly related to the storm event. The leading cause of death during winter storms is from automobile or other transportation accidents due to poor visibility and/or slippery roads. Additionally, exhaustion and heart attacks caused by overexertion may result from winter storms. • Population Patterns: o Population growth in rural agricultural areas like Immokalee dependent on seasonal crop production. o Increased density of elderly residents in mobile home communities that are vulnerable to freezing temperatures. o Seasonal population influx from northern regions increasing heating demands during cold snaps. o Underserved Populations: Low-income families may face higher risks due to poorly insulated homes and limited access to heating systems. Migrant farmworkers may be exposed to extreme cold without adequate shelter or resources. Power outages during very cold winter storm conditions can also create potentially dangerous situations. Elderly people account for the largest percentage of hypothermia Collier County,FL WSp Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 176 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT victims. In addition, if the power is out for an extended period, residents are forced to find alternative means to heat their homes. The danger arises from carbon monoxide released from improperly ventilated heating sources such as space or kerosene heaters, furnaces, and blocked chimneys. House fires also occur more frequently in the winter due to lack of proper safety precautions when using an alternative heating source. PROPERTY No property damage was reported in association with any winter weather events recorded by the NCEI between 2000 and 2023 for Collier County. Therefore, no annualized loss estimate could be calculated for this hazard. However, $335,060,000 in crop damage was reported over the 24-year period, which equates to an average annual loss estimate of $13,960,833. • Land Use/Development Trends: o Expansion of commercial greenhouses and nurseries with limited temperature regulation systems. o Growth of new residential developments without winterized infrastructure (e.g., insulated pipes). o Limited adoption of frost-resistant landscaping in newly developed neighborhoods. ENVIRONMENT Winter storm events may include ice or snow accumulation on trees which can cause large limbs, or even whole trees, to snap and potentially fall on buildings, cars, or power lines. This potential for winter debris creates a dangerous environment to be outside in; significant injury or fatality may occur if a large limb snaps while a local resident is out driving or walking underneath it. CONSEQUENCE ANALYSIS Table 2.82 summarizes the potential negative consequences of severe winter storm. Table 2.82 — Consequence Analysis — Severe Winter Storm Category Consequences Public Localized impact expected to be severe for affected areas and moderate to light for other less affected areas. Responders Adverse impact expected to be severe for unprotected personnel and moderate to light for trained, equipped, and protected personnel.

Most earthquakes are caused by the release of stresses accumulated as a result of the rupture of rocks along opposing fault planes in the Earth's outer crust. These fault planes are typically found along borders of the Earth's 10 tectonic plates. The areas of greatest tectonic instability occur at the perimeters of the slowly moving plates, as these locations are subjected to the greatest strains from plates traveling in opposite directions and at different speeds. Deformation along plate boundaries causes strain in the rock and the consequent buildup of stored energy. When the built-up stress exceeds the rocks' strength a rupture occurs. The rock on both sides of the fracture is snapped, releasing the stored energy and producing seismic waves, generating an earthquake. • Warning Time: 4 — Less than 6 hours • Duration: 1 — Less than 6 hours LOCATION The United State Geological Survey's Quaternary faults database was consulted to define the location of potential earthquakes within range of Collier County. Quaternary faults are active faults recognized at the surface which have evidence of movement in the past 2.58 million years. The Gulf-Margin normal faults, the Charleston liquefaction feature, and the Wiggins uplift are the closest to Collier County and they are 450 miles, 415 miles, and 485 miles away respectively. These three fault areas could potentially produce an earthquake affecting Collier County. Figure 2.45 reflects the location of these three faults Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 178 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT in relation to Collier County based on data from the USGS Earthquake Hazards Program. Additionally, there is a fault about the same distance south of Florida on the Caribbean Plate. Collier County and its jurisdictions are susceptible to earthquakes. All of Florida is subject to earthquakes, with the northwestern region most vulnerable to a damaging earthquake. The state is affected by the Charleston liquefaction feature in South Carolina, the Gulf-Margin normal faults stretching from the edge of Florida through Louisiana, and the Wiggins uplift in Alabama and Mississippi. The Charleston Liquefaction feature has generated an earthquake greater than 8.0 on the Richter Scale in the last 200 years. ■ Spatial Extent: 3 — Moderate Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 179 1 6 F 4 E3g 4G % \ / E CD a co z.411( / k ! | gg In ' 6 cn P. \ ( % , ! ! !

Magnitude is measured using the Richter Scale, an open-ended logarithmic scale that describes the energy release of an earthquake through a measure of shock wave amplitude. A detailed description of the Richter Scale is given in Table 2.83. Although the Richter scale is usually used by the news media when reporting the intensity of earthquakes and is the scale most familiar to the public, the scale currently used by the scientific community in the United States is called the Modified Mercalli Intensity (MMI) scale. The MMI scale is an arbitrary ranking based on observed effects. Table 2.84 shows descriptions for levels of earthquake intensity on the MMI scale. Seismic shaking is typically the greatest cause of losses to structures during earthquakes. Table 2.83 — Richter Scale Magnitude Effects Less than 3.5 Generally, not felt, but recorded. 3.5—5.4 Often felt, but rarely causes damage. At most slight damage to well-designed buildings. Can cause major damage to poorly 5.4—6.0 constructed buildings over small regions. 6.1 —6.9 Can be destructive in areas up to 100 kilometers across where people live. 7.0—7.9 Major earthquake.

However, per the USGS Earthquake Catalog, there are no records since 1800 of any earthquake impacts being felt in Collier County. ■ Impact: 1 — Minor HISTORICAL OCCURRENCES The USGS Earthquake Hazards Program maintains a database of historical earthquakes of a magnitude 2.5 and greater from 1973 to 2024. Collier County has no history of earthquakes or damage from earthquakes. No earthquakes have had epicenters in Florida and there are no documented faults in the State. The National Geophysical Data Center maintains a database of all earthquakes from 1638 to 1985 including the maximum intensity for each locality that felt the earthquake. Since 1985, no major earthquake events have impacted the planning area. The largest earthquake to be felt in Florida was the Charleston earthquake of 1886, which registered an MMI of VIII in Savannah. Table 2.85 shows historic seismic events felt in Florida. No earthquake epicenters have occurred in Collier County. Table 2.85 — Historical Seismic Events Felt in Florida, 1886-2024 Date Description Known as the"great earthquake,"a severe earthquake hit Charleston, South Carolina. August 31, 1886 It was so powerful that shaking was felt in St.Augustine and Tampa. There were also several aftershocks in the months after the quake that were felt in Florida. January 5, 1945 Shaking was felt in Volusia County.Windows in a De Land courthouse shook violently. October 27, 1973 A shock was felt in Seminole,Volusia, Orange, and Brevard counties with a maximum intensity of MM V. January 13, 1978 Two shocks were felt in Polk County, each lasting about 15 seconds and one minute apart. It rattled doors and windows, but there were no injuries or damages. November 13, 1978 A shock was felt in northwest Florida.The seismic station estimated that it originated in the Atlantic Ocean. A strong quake was felt in Florida and other Gulf Coast states. USGS determined it was September 10, 2006 magnitude 6 quake originating in the Gulf of Mexico, 250 miles southwest of the Apalachicola area. Some felt small shakes in Florida and USGS rated it as a 3.7 magnitude. It was later July 16, 2016 discovered that the"quake"was actually an experimental explosion in the ocean by the US Navy. March 7&24, 2019 Two weak tremors, intensity MM III,were felt in Jay and Century, Florida. No damage in Florida was reported. January 2020 A 7.7 magnitude earthquake occurred in the Caribbean Sea between Jamaica and Cuba causing buildings in Miami to shake and evacuate. September 3, 2020 Weak tremor was felt by few in Jay, FL; intensity MM II. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 182 1 § F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT Date Description A magnitude 4.3 earthquake struck approximately 38 kilometers (23 miles) northwest of August 27, 2024 Wellington, at a depth of 5 kilometers(3.1 miles). Collier County did not experience any tremors. Source: Florida Enhanced State Hazard Mitigation Plan, 2023 PROBABILITY OF FUTURE OCCURRENCE Ground motion is the movement of the earth's surface due to earthquakes or explosions. It is produced by waves generated by a sudden slip on a fault or sudden pressure at the explosive source and travels through the earth and along its surface. Ground motion is amplified when surface waves of unconsolidated materials bounce off or are refracted by adjacent solid bedrock. The probability of ground motion is depicted in USGS earthquake hazard maps by showing, by contour values, the earthquake ground motions (of a frequency) that have a common given probability of being exceeded in 50 years. Figure 2.46 reflects the seismic hazard for Collier County based on the national USGS map of peak acceleration with two percent probability of exceedance in 50 years. To produce these estimates, the ground motions being considered at a given location are those from all future possible earthquake magnitudes at all possible distances from that location. The ground motion coming from a particular magnitude and distance is assigned an annual probability equal to the annual probability of occurrence of the causative magnitude and distance. The method assumes a reasonable future catalog of earthquakes, based upon historical earthquake locations and geological information on the recurrence rate of fault ruptures. When all the possible earthquakes and magnitudes have been considered, a ground motion value is determined such that the annual rate of its being exceeded has a certain value. Therefore, for the given probability of exceedance, two percent, the locations shaken more frequently will have larger ground motions. All of Collier County is located within zones with peak acceleration of 0-2% g. There have been no past occurrences of earthquakes in Collier County. Using past occurrence as an indicator of future probability, there is a low chance of an earthquake causing some building damage.

Changing ice caps and sea-level redistribute weight over fault lines, which could potentially have an influence on earthquake occurrences. However, currently Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 184 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT no studies quantify the relationship to a high level of detail, so recent earthquakes should not be linked with climate change. While not conclusive, early research suggest that more intense earthquakes and tsunamis may eventually be added to the adverse consequences that are caused by climate change. VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT PEOPLE Earthquake events in Collier County are unlikely to produce more than moderate ground shaking; injury is unlikely. Objects falling from shelves generally pose the greatest threat to safety. A 2,500-year event was estimated using Hazus because a 2,500-year event is the "maximum considered earthquake" and is used for building codes. It has a 2-percent probability of being exceeded in 50 years. Hazus estimates that the 2,500-year earthquake would result in 608 residential structures experiencing slight to complete damage. With these estimates, potential population at risk was calculated using the American Community Survey 2023 1-Year Estimates for average household size. The average household size for Collier County is 2.4, therefore there are an estimated 1,459 individuals are at moderate risk to the 2,500-year earthquake event. • Population Patterns: o Growing population in inland areas with limited building codes for seismic activity. o Increased density in neighborhoods with older, non-retrofitted structures. o Vulnerable populations, such as elderly residents and those in multi-story apartments, may face greater difficulty in evacuation. o Underserved Populations: Low-income and minority communities living in older structures may lack the financial resources for retrofitting homes to meet seismic standards. PROPERTY In a severe earthquake event, buildings can be damaged by the shaking itself or by the ground beneath them settling to a different level than it was before the earthquake (subsidence). Buildings can even sink into the ground if soil liquefaction occurs. If a structure (a building, road, etc.) is built across a fault, the ground displacement during an earthquake could seriously damage that structure. Earthquakes can also cause damages to infrastructure, resulting in secondary hazards. Damages to dams or levees could cause failures and subsequent flooding. Fires can be started by broken gas lines and power lines. Fires can be a serious problem, especially if the water lines that feed the fire hydrants have been damaged as well. Impacts of earthquakes also include debris clean-up and service disruption. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 185 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT Collier County has not been impacted by an earthquake, so major damage to the built environment is unlikely. However, if an earthquake were to occur, there is potential for impacts to certain masonry buildings, as well as environmental damages with secondary impacts on structures. • Land Use/Development Trends: o Continued construction of non-reinforced masonry buildings in low-seismic zones despite moderate earthquake potential. o Increased development of critical infrastructure, such as water towers and bridges, without updated seismic resilience measures. o Expansion of urban centers with high-rise buildings and multi-use developments requiring updated structural codes. Table 2.86 details the estimated buildings impacted by 2,500-year earthquake event based on a Hazus level 1 analysis. Note that building value estimates are inherent to Hazus and do not necessarily reflect damages to the asset inventory provided by the County's parcel and building data.

Impacts to the built environment (e.g. ruptured gas line) could damage the surrounding environment. However, this type damage is unlikely based on historical occurrences. CONSEQUENCE ANALYSIS Table 2.89 summarizes the potential negative consequences of earthquake. Table 2.89 — Consequence Analysis - Earthquake Category Consequences Public The public may experience shaking and the greatest threat to health and well-being is often from objects falling from shelves. Responders Minimal expected impact on responders given only mild to moderate events. If a more severe incident occurs, responders may need to enter compromised structures or infrastructure. Continuity of Operations There would likely be little disruption to services or operations due to a moderate (including Continued earthquake. Any damage to transportation infrastructure, or critical facilities could Delivery of Services) interrupt access to some services. Property, Facilities and Damage to facilities and infrastructure is unlikely. Moderate ground shaking could Infrastructure cause objects to fall, resulting in minor damages. Environment No severe impacts expected, but damage to key infrastructure, utility systems, or facilities that house hazardous materials could harm the surrounding environment and may require remediation. Economic Condition of the Economic loss is unexpected with moderate events, but could include property Jurisdiction damage, business interruption costs, cost to repair public infrastructure, and debris removal costs.

Earthquakes are the most common cause of tsunamis. Tsunami waves radiate in all directions from the site of the disturbance, traveling as fast as 450 mph and slowing as they reach shallow waters. As the waves slow, they draw together and grow in height. The resulting phenomenon appears as a constant wall of water and can resemble hurricane storm surge when it reaches the shore. There can be as many as 60 miles between peaks of each wave series and be as far as one hour apart. Tsunamis have a much smaller amplitude (wave height) offshore, and a very long wavelength (often hundreds of kilometers long), which is why they generally pass unnoticed at sea, forming only a passing "hump" in the ocean. The number of arrivals and the amplitudes of each wave will vary depending on the coastal properties, the exact travel direction, and other specifics of how the tsunami was generated. They will vary from place to place and event to event. In the largest tsunamis, surge can continue for many hours and more than a day. Tsunamis are typically caused by underwater tectonic activity, particularly along fault lines where large amounts of ocean floor can be displaced. This displacement causes the water above it to be pushed up or down, creating waves that spread outward in all directions. Scientists cannot predict when and where the next tsunami will strike. However, since earthquakes are often a cause of tsunamis, an earthquake felt near a body of water may be considered an indication that a tsunami could shortly follow. Tsunami Warning Centers monitor which earthquakes are likely to generate tsunamis and can issue warning messages when a tsunami is possible. The National Tsunami Warning Center in Palmer, Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 188 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT Alaska, serves the continental United States, Alaska, Puerto Rico, and Virgin Islands and Canada. As a tsunami approaches the coast, its speed decreased, but its height increases dramatically, this can result in catastrophic flooding and destruction of coastal areas. The first part of a tsunami to reach land is a trough rather than a crest of the wave. The water along the shoreline may recede dramatically, exposing areas that are normally submerged. This can serve as an advance warning of the approaching crest of the tsunami, although the crest typically arrives seconds to minutes later. Tsunamis are sometimes mistakenly called tidal waves; however, this term is misleading and discouraged by oceanographers because tsunamis are not related or influenced by tidal patterns. • Warning Time: 3— 6 to 12 hours • Duration: 3— Less than 1 week LOCATION Tsunamis can impact any coastal area, but they are most commonly associated with the Pacific Coast due to the higher likelihood of occurrence in this region, which is characterized by numerous subduction zones and a significant risk of earthquakes. On the East Coast, tsunamis are more likely to be triggered by landslides or underwater slumping related to local earthquakes, though these events are relatively rare. The most vulnerable areas are those located less than 25 feet above sea level and within one mile of the coastline. According to the 2023 Florida State Hazard Mitigation Plan, the past 150 years of tsunami records indicate that the most frequent and destructive tsunamis in the U.S. have occurred along the coasts of California, Oregon, Washington, Alaska, and Hawaii. Earthquakes are frequently the cause for tsunami events. The 2023 Florida State Hazard Mitigation Plan reports that four tsunamis have occurred in Florida, all on the Atlantic Coast. Additionally, sediment deposits in the Gulf of Mexico may lead to underwater landslide activity. Collier County's location along the Gulf of Mexico generally places it at a lower risk of tsunamis compared to other areas along Florida's west coast. However, being a coastal community, the potential for a tsunami cannot be entirely ruled out. Tsunamis affecting Collier County would likely be triggered by underwater landslides within the Gulf of Mexico or distant seismic events. Although such occurrences are rare, they could still generate localized tsunami impacts. Given the unpredictable nature of seismic activity, there remains a possibility of a tsunami affecting Collier County and its jurisdictions. Low-lying areas, including Naples, Marco Island, Everglades City, and unincorporated coastal regions, may be particularly vulnerable due to their flat topography and proximity to the shoreline. The gradual slope of the continental shelf further increases susceptibility in these areas, as well as Port of the Islands, making them more prone to potential tsunami-related impacts. • Spatial Extent: 3— Moderate Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 189 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT Figure 2.47 shows the at-risk areas for tsunamis in the United States.

While these events are rare, they could affect areas of Collier County's coast, particularly low-lying areas like Naples, Marco Island, and other beachfront communities. The Regional Assessment of Tsunami Potential in the Gulf of Mexico report by Brink, et al. provides a comprehensive analysis of the potential for tsunami generation in the Gulf of Mexico. One of the primary findings of the report is that submarine landslides have already occurred in the region and, in some cases, were substantial enough in volume to trigger destructive tsunamis. These landslides, which originated from the Gulf's continental slope, have the capacity to displace significant amounts of water, creating dangerous waves capable of causing severe damage to coastal areas. The report suggests that the sediment supply from the Mississippi River, one of the largest rivers in the world, plays a significant role in contributing to the possibility of further submarine landslide activity. The Mississippi River constantly deposits sediment into the Gulf, which over time can accumulate on the continental slope. This build of sediment can potentially destabilize the seabed, leading to future landslides. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 190 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT FEMA's National Risk Index (NRI) Map shows tsunami risk as not applicable to Collier County. The 2023 Florida State Hazard Mitigation Plan rates overall tsunami vulnerability as low. ■ Impact: 2— Limited HISTORICAL OCCURRENCES Florida has experienced four recorded tsunami events, all of which occurred along its Atlantic Coast. Although Florida is generally considered a low-risk area for tsunamis compared to more seismically active regions, these events serve as a reminder that tsunamis can still reach the state's shores under certain conditions. The causes of these tsunamis are varied and highlight the potential for both local and distant seismic activity to generate waves that can impact the Florida coastline. • One tsunami was cause by an earthquake along the Atlantic Coast. • One was caused by an earthquake outside the Atlantic region. • Two of the tsunamis were generate by earthquakes in the Caribbean. While no known tsunamis have ever affected the Florida Gulf Coast, a tsunami in that location is unlikely but not impossible. PROBABILITY OF FUTURE OCCURRENCE Historical records indicate that Florida, particularly along its Gulf Coast, has experiences few, if any, significant tsunamis in the past. Most documented tsunami events have occurred on the Atlantic side, with no major incidents recorded in Collier County or elsewhere along the Gulf Coast. Based on the past occurrences and research, future tsunami events impacting the county is unlikely. The stable geological environment in the Gulf, combined with the absence of major historical tsunami activity, determines that future tsunami activity affecting Collier County remains minimal. ■ Probability: 1 — Unlikely CLIMATE CHANGE Climate change is not anticipated to impact the frequency or occurrence of tsunamis in Collier County. VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT PEOPLE Many of the effects of tsunamis on people are the same as those for other types of coastal flooding, described in Sections 2.5.1 and 0. Certain groups within Collier County may be more vulnerable to a tsunami due to age, mobility issues, or socioeconomic factors. The county has a large elderly population, many of whom live in retirement communities near the coast. Older adults may face challenges with evacuation during an emergency, particularly in rapid response. Foremost, rescue missions may be life-threatening for rescuers if buildings are not structurally stable or if rescuing from waters of unknown depth. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 191 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT • Population Patterns: o Increased seasonal population and tourists along beachfront communities during peak months. o Higher concentrations of vulnerable populations, such as seniors and families with young children, at popular beachfront parks. o New residential developments increasing population density in low-lying evacuation zones. o Underserved Populations: Coastal communities with limited transportation access may face evacuation challenges. Tourists unfamiliar with evacuation procedures may also contribute to congestion during a tsunami warning. PROPERTY Though highly unlikely, if a major tsunami were to impact Florida, the resulting damage to structure and critical infrastructure could be severe. Coastal communities in low-lying areas, such as those in Collier County, could experience widespread damage from the force of waters and from flooding, particularly where residential and commercial properties are located near the shoreline. Critical infrastructure, such as power plants, water treatment facilities, hospitals, and emergency services buildings, would also be at high risk. The force of the water could disrupt power grids, damage roads and bridges, and cause long-term interruptions to vital services, further complicating response and recovery efforts. • Land Use/Development Trends: o Expansion of beachfront resorts, hotels, and residential complexes within potential tsunami inundation zones. o Development of critical evacuation routes through densely populated areas, increasing evacuation times. o Growth of recreational and commercial zones along the coast, potentially obstructing natural buffers such as dunes. ENVIRONMENT A major tsunami could lead to significant changes along the coast, affecting a wide range of coastal features and ecosystems. The impact would extend to both the immediate shoreline and the intra-coastal areas, leading to widespread alternatives in the landscape. For instance, tsunamis can reshape the coastline, leading the beaches eroding away, altering the natural contour of the shore and potentially causing the loss of valuable recreational and natural areas. Also, there's a possibility of damage to vegetation. The force of a tsunami wave, combined with the debris carried by the water, could uproot or flatten vegetation. The restoration of damages vegetation and habitats require time and resources, and some ecosystems might not fully return to their pre-tsunami conditions. The alteration of coastal environments could have cascading efforts on local biodiversity and the ecological balance. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 192 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT CONSEQUENCE ANALYSIS The consequence analysis for tsunami hazards is shown in Table 2.90. Table 2.90 — Consequence Analysis — Tsunami Category Consequences Public Vulnerable populations such as the elderly, are more susceptible to facing challenges in the event of a tsunami. Tsunamis are life threatening events. Responders Responders face similar risks as the general public but a heightened potential for life- threatening rescue missions if buildings are not structurally sound or if water depth is unknown. Continuity of Operations Operations would likely be disrupted as a result of damages to buildings, roads, (including Continued transportation infrastructure, communications infrastructure, utilities, and other key Delivery of Services) lifelines, making it difficult for emergency response efforts in the area. Property, Facilities and Many structures and critical infrastructure would be severely damaged from the force Infrastructure of the water and flooding effects. Environment The coast, beaches, mangroves, etc. could be altered. Economic Condition of Many businesses would be damaged and forced to close causing loss of revenue and the Jurisdiction loss of jobs. Public Confidence in the As with other hazards, public confidence could be affected by the speed of response Jurisdiction's Governance and recovery efforts. HAZARD SUMMARY BY JURISDICTION The following table summarizes tsunami hazard risk by jurisdiction. Tsunami hazard is not expected to change much by jurisdiction.

This infrastructure is integral to the functioning of the communities in the planning area and would cause major disruptions should they become inaccessible. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 193 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT Damage to any of this infrastructure could result from most of the natural and human- caused hazards described in this plan. In addition to a secondary or cascading impact from another primary hazard, infrastructure can fail as a result of faulty equipment, lack of maintenance, degradation over time, or accidental damage such as a barge colliding with a bridge support. Building and construction standards along with regular inspection and maintenance can provide a degree of certainty as to the capacity of infrastructure to withstand some damages. However, accidental damage is unpredictable. Moreover, any damages that take a road or bridge out of service will likely require significant repairs that could take weeks or months to complete. • Warning Time: 4 — Less than six hours • Duration: 4 — More than one week LOCATION The primary transportation systems in the region are shown in Figure 2.48. The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) maintains a list of bridges in Florida. According to FDOT data as of June 2024, there are 392 bridges in Collier County, of which 223 were built in 1989 or prior. Of these, 83 were subsequently reconstructed; however, 43 reconstructions also occurred prior to 1989. All 183 bridges built or reconstructed in 1989 or prior are listed below in Table 2.91; bridges reconstructed after 1989 are omitted from this list. Bridges with a National Bridge Inventory (NBI) Rating of Structurally Deficient (SD) or Functionally Obsolete (FO) are indicated. Structurally deficient bridges are those with any component rated poor. Functionally obsolete bridges are those not built to standards that are used today. Based on their age or condition, the bridges listed here may be most likely to need maintenance, repair, or replacement now or in the near future. Aging infrastructure may also be more vulnerable to impacts from other natural or technological hazards. Collier County and its jurisdictions are susceptible to major transportation incidents.

According to the American Society of Civil Engineers, more than half a million daily crossings occur over 400 bridges across Florida that have been categorized as structurally deficient. As of June 2022, data from the Federal Highway Administration indicates that there are 4 bridges in poor condition in Collier County and 74 bridges in fair condition.

The loss of a local road may have only minor impacts limited to the immediate area. However, the loss of a major highway or key bridge could cause significant disruption across the Region. Depending on time of day and the onset of the failure, significant casualties are also possible: the 1967 Silver Bridge collapse between Point Pleasant, West Virginia and Gallipolis, Ohio and the 1980 Sunshine Skyway Bridge collapse outside St. Petersburg, Florida killed 46 and 35 people respectively. If a bridge or key route were closed or failed during a hurricane evacuation, it could put thousands of residents and visitors at risk. According to a report published by The National Transportation Research Group known as TRIP, approximately $1.1 trillion worth of goods and commodities are shipped to and from the state of Florida every year. The majority of these goods are carried by trucks using the state's highway system. In addition to casualties, the conditions of highways and local roadways could impact the accessibility for goods to be transported by trucks that are deemed necessary for residents living in the region. • Impact: 3 — Critical HISTORICAL OCCURRENCES A 2014 analysis of bridge failure rates by Dr. Wesley Cook of Utah State University found that an average of 128 bridges collapse every year in the U.S.; 53% of bridges that collapsed had been rated as structurally deficient prior to their collapse. Only 4% of bridge collapses resulted in loss of life. In 2022, a review of statistical characteristics of bridge failures was conducted by a Highway Research Center at Chang'an University and found that design error, construction mistakes, hydraulic, collision, and overload are the top 5 leading causes of bridge failures. PROBABILITY OF FUTURE OCCURRENCE The likelihood of a major transportation infrastructure failure occurring in Collier County is difficult to quantify. The continuing age and deterioration of America's transportation infrastructure, coupled with increasing traffic and declining public investment in maintaining our infrastructure, indicate that road and bridge failures are likely to be more common in future decades than they have in the past. The American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) released their most recent Report Card for America's Infrastructure in 2021 giving the U.S an overall grade of "C-" on infrastructure conditions. Meanwhile, the state of Florida received an overall grade of"C." As of May 2024, 32% of Florida's major roads are in poor or mediocre condition. Driving on deteriorated roads causes an extra $570 a year to each Floridian driver. • Probability: 2— Possible Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 201 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT CLIMATE CHANGE Climate change could cause more major infrastructure incidents in some cases. As sea level rises, bridges may be more vulnerable to flooding or scour, roads could be flooded as well, and other types of transportation could be hindered. VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT The impacts of transportation failures vary widely by the type of system, as well as the time of day and season of the failure. METHODOLOGIES AND ASSUMPTIONS Vulnerability to transportation infrastructure failures was assessed based on past occurrences nationally and internationally as well as publicly available information on infrastructure vulnerability. PEOPLE People can be injured or killed during transportation infrastructure failures. As noted above, the U.S. averages five fatality-causing bridge collapses per year, although data on the number of fatalities involved was not available. Numbers of non-fatal injuries was also not available. Aside from direct injuries and fatalities, transportation failures can result in significant losses of time and money as individuals and commercial shipments are detoured or blocked. Disruption of transportation systems can limit the ability of emergency services and utility work crews to reach affected areas and can put some members of the public at severe risk if they are unable to reach needed medical services, such as dialysis patients. In extreme cases, a transportation failure could leave residents stranded without power, food, or other emergency supplies. • Population Patterns: o Population growth near major roadways and transportation hubs increases risk exposure. o Higher population concentration in areas with limited public transportation options, increasing road traffic. o Vulnerable populations, such as schoolchildren and seniors, are more exposed during incidents near transit hubs. o Underserved Populations: Low-income residents relying on public transportation may be more affected by incidents causing service disruptions. Underserved communities living near major highways may also be more exposed to transportation-related accidents. PROPERTY The primary property damage from transportation infrastructure failures is to the infrastructure itself, as well as to privately-owned automobiles. • Land Use/Development Trends: Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 202 1 6 F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT o Growth in commercial and logistics hubs, increasing the volume of freight traffic. o Development of new housing near transportation corridors without adequate buffer zones. o Expansion of urban centers requiring new transit systems and emergency access routes. ENVIRONMENT Transportation infrastructure failures can result in oil spills or other hazardous materials releases that can severely impact the environment in the surrounding area.

There can also be harmful exposure to chemical, radiological, or biological agents, and largescale infestations of disease-carrying insects or rodents. The first part of this section focuses on emerging public health concerns and potential pandemics, while the second part addresses natural and human-caused air and water pollution. Public health emergencies can occur as primary events by themselves, or they may be secondary to another disaster or emergency, such as tornado, flood, or hazardous material incident. For more information on those particular incidents, see Sections 2.5.2 (Severe Storms and Tornadoes), 2.5.1 (Flood), and 2.5.14 (Hazardous Materials). The common characteristic of most public health emergencies is that they adversely impact, or have the potential to adversely impact, many people. Public health emergencies can be worldwide or localized in scope and magnitude. The Florida Department of Health in Collier County has partnered with Collier Emergency Management and the local Red Cross chapter to plan and prepare for public health emergencies. The Department of Health provides resources and guidance in support of business, community, faith-based organization, health care provider, and individual preparedness. The primary communicable, or infectious, disease addressed within this plan is influenza: Influenza - Whether natural or manmade, health officials say the threat of a dangerous new strain of influenza (flu) virus in pandemic proportions is a very real possibility in the years ahead. Unlike most illnesses, the flu is especially dangerous because it is spread through the air. A classic definition of influenza is a respiratory infection with fever. Each year, flu infects humans and spreads around the globe. There are three types of influenza virus: Types A, B, and C. Type A is the most common, most severe, and the primary cause of flu epidemics. Type B cases occur sporadically and sometimes as regional or widespread epidemics. Type C cases are quite rare and hence sporadic, but localized outbreaks have occurred. Seasonal influenza usually is treatable, and the mortality rate remains low. Each year, scientists estimate which strain of flu is likely to spread, and they create a vaccine to combat it. A flu pandemic occurs when the virus suddenly changes or mutates and undergoes an —antigenic shift, permitting it to attach to a person's respiratory system and leave the body's immune system defenseless against the invader. Additional diseases of public health concern include tuberculosis, Smallpox, St. Louis Encephalitis, Meningitis, Lyme disease, West Nile, SARS, Zika, and Ebola. These Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 204 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT communicable diseases are introduced within this plan, but full vulnerability analyses are not included at this time. Tuberculosis - Tuberculosis, or TB, is the leading cause of infectious disease worldwide. It is caused by a bacteria called Mycobacterium tuberculosis that most often affects the lungs. TB is an airborne disease spread by coughing or sneezing from one person to another. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that one-third of the world's population, approximately two billion people, has latent TB, which means people have been infected by TB bacteria but are not yet ill with the disease and cannot transmit the disease. In 2022, an estimated 10.6 million people fell ill with TB and 1.3 million died from the disease (including 167,000 people with HIV). Over 80% of TB deaths occur in low- and middle- income countries. Smallpox - Smallpox is a contagious, sometimes fatal, infectious disease. There is no specific treatment for smallpox disease, and the only prevention is vaccination. Smallpox is caused by the variola virus that emerged in human populations thousands of years ago. It is generally spread by face- to-face contact or by direct contact with infected bodily fluids or contaminated objects (such as bedding or clothing). A person with smallpox is sometimes contagious with onset of fever, but the person becomes most contagious with the onset of rash. The rash typically develops into sores that spread over all parts of the body. The infected person remains contagious until the last smallpox scab is gone. Smallpox outbreaks have occurred periodically for thousands of years, but the disease is now largely eradicated after a worldwide vaccination program was implemented. After the disease was eliminated, routine vaccination among the general public was stopped. The last case of smallpox in the United States was in 1949. St. Louis Encephalitis - In the United States, the leading type of epidemic flaviviral Encephalitis is St. Louis encephalitis (SLE), which is transmitted by mosquitoes that become infected by feeding on birds infected with the virus. SLE is the most common mosquito-transmitted pathogen in the United States. There is no evidence to suggest that the virus can be spread from person to person. Meningitis - Meningitis is an infection of fluid that surrounds a person's spinal cord and brain. High fever, headache, and stiff neck are common symptoms of meningitis, which can develop between several hours to one to two days after exposure. Meningitis can be caused by either a viral or bacterial infection; however, a correct diagnosis is critically important, because treatments for the two varieties differ. Meningitis is transmitted through direct contact with respiratory secretions from an infected carrier. Primary risk groups include infants and young children, household contact with patients, and refugees. In the United States, periodic outbreaks continue to occur, particularly among adolescents and young adults. About 2,600 people in the United States get the disease each year. Generally, 10 to 14 percent of cases are fatal, and 11 to 19 percent of those who recover suffer from permanent hearing loss, mental retardation, loss of limbs, or other serious effects. Two vaccines are available in the United States. Lyme Disease - Lyme disease was named after the town of Lyme, Connecticut, where an unusually large frequency of arthritis-like symptoms was observed in children in 1977. It was later found that the problem was caused by bacteria transmitted to humans by infected deer ticks, causing an estimated 300,000 new cases of Lyme disease in the Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 205 I6F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT United States each year (however, the disease is greatly under-reported). Lyme disease bacteria are not transmitted from person to person. Following a tick bite, 80 percent of patients develop a red —bullseye rash accompanied by tiredness, fever, headache, stiff neck, muscle aches, and joint pain. If untreated, some patients may develop arthritis, neurological abnormalities, and cardiac problems, weeks to months later. Lyme disease is rarely fatal. During early stages of the disease, oral antibiotic treatment is generally effective, while intravenous treatment may be required in more severe cases. West Nile Virus - West Nile virus is a flavivirus spread by infected mosquitoes and is commonly found in Africa, West Asia, and the Middle East. It was first documented in the United States in 1999. Although it is not known where the U.S. virus originated, it most closely resembles strains found in the Middle East. It is closely related to St. Louis encephalitis and can infect humans, birds, mosquitoes, horses, and other mammals. Most people who become infected with West Nile virus will have either no symptoms or only mild effects. However, on rare occasions, the infection can result in severe and sometimes fatal illness. There is no evidence to suggest that the virus can be spread from person to person. An abundance of dead birds in an area may indicate that West Nile virus is circulating between the birds and mosquitoes in that area. Although birds are particularly susceptible to the virus, most infected birds survive. The continued expansion of West Nile virus in the United States indicates that it is permanently established in the Western Hemisphere. Coronaviruses — Coronaviruses are a large family of viruses found in both animals and humans and are known to cause illness ranging from the common cold to more severe diseases such as Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS), Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS), and Novel Coronavirus (COVID- 19). Coronaviruses can cause respiratory infections and can lead to serious illnesses, like pneumonia, and can be deadly. Typical coronavirus symptoms include fever, cough, headache, runny nose, and sore throat. MERS was first reported in 2012 in Saudi Arabia and spread to more than 25 countries. It produced symptoms that often progressed to pneumonia and 30-40 percent of cases were fatal. SARS emerged in 2002 and spread to more than two dozen countries. It caused acute respiratory distress and had a mortality rate of about 10 percent. The most significant recent coronavirus, COVID-19, first emerged in Wuhan, China in 2019 and rapidly spread across the world. According to CDC data, as of February 2022, there had been over 78.5 million cases of COVID-19 reported in the United States. COVID-19 spreads when an infected person breathes out droplets and very small particles that contain the virus. These droplets and particles can be breathed in by other people or land on their eyes, noses, or mouth. Symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, fatigue, loss of taste and smell, and more. Symptoms range from mild to severe illness and typically appear between 2-14 days after exposure to the virus. Zika Virus - Discovered in the Zika forest of Uganda in 1947, the Zika virus is a member of the flavivirus family. It is transmitted to humans through the bite of an infected Aedes species mosquito (Ae. aegypti and Ae. albopictus). Zika virus can also be transmitted from an infected pregnant woman to her baby during pregnancy and can result in serious birth defects, including microcephaly. Less commonly, the virus can be spread through Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 206 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT intercourse or blood transfusion. However, most people infected with the Zika virus do not become sick. Ebola - Previously known as Ebola hemorrhagic fever, is a rare and deadly disease caused by infection with one of the Ebola virus species. It was first discovered in 1976 near the Ebola River in what is now the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Since then, outbreaks have appeared sporadically in Africa. • Warning Time: 1 — More than 24 hours • Duration: 4 — More than one week LOCATION Infectious disease outbreaks can occur anywhere in the planning area, especially where there are groups of people in close quarters. Collier County and its jurisdictions are susceptible to pandemic outbreaks. • Spatial Extent: 3 — Moderate EXTENT When on an epidemic scale, diseases can lead to high infection rates in the population causing isolation, quarantine, and potential mass fatalities. An especially severe influenza pandemic or other major disease outbreak could lead to high levels of illness, death, social disruption, and economic loss. Impacts could range from school and business closings to the interruption of basic services such as public transportation, health care, and the delivery of food and essential medicines. Table 2.94 describes the World Health Organization's six main phases to a pandemic flu as part of their planning guidance. Table 2.94 —World Health Organization's Pandemic Flu Phases Phase Description No animal influenza virus circulating among animals have been reported to cause infection in 1 humans. 2 An animal influenza virus circulating in domesticated or wild animals is known to have caused infection in humans and is therefore considered a specific potential pandemic threat. An animal or human-animal influenza reassortant virus has caused sporadic cases or small clusters 3 of disease in people but has not resulted in human-to-human transmission sufficient enough to sustain community-level breakouts. 4 Human-to-human transmission of an animal or human-animal influenza reassortant virus able to sustain community-level breakouts has been verified. 5 The same identified virus has caused sustained community-level outbreaks in two or more countries in one WHO region. 6 In addition to the criteria defined in Phase 5,the same virus has caused sustained community-level outbreaks in at least one other country in another WHO region. Post-Peak Levels of pandemic influenza in most countries with adequate surveillance have dropped below peak Period levels. Post- Levels of influenza activity have returned to levels seen for seasonal influenza in most countries with Pandemic Period adequate surveillance.

The Spanish Flu was the most severe pandemic in recent history. The number of deaths was estimated to be 50-100 million worldwide and 675,000 in the United States. Its primary victims were mostly young, healthy adults. The 1957 Asian Flu pandemic killed about 70,000 people in the United States, mostly the elderly and chronically ill. The 1968 Hong Kong Flu pandemic killed 34,000 Americans. The 2009 Swine Flu caused 12,469 deaths in the United States. As of March 2022, the COVID — 19 pandemic has caused over 947,000 deaths in the U.S. and over 5.9 million death globally. These historic pandemics are further defined in the following paragraphs along with several "pandemic scares". SPANISH FLU (H1 N1 VIRUS) OF 1918-1919 In 1918, when World War I was in its fourth year, another threat began that rivaled the war itself as the greatest killer in human history. The Spanish Flu swept the world in three waves during a two-year period, beginning in March 1918 with a relatively mild assault. The first reported case occurred at Camp Funston (Fort Riley), Kansas, where 60,000 soldiers trained to be deployed overseas. Within four months, the virus traversed the globe, as American soldiers brought the virus to Europe. The first wave sickened thousands of people and caused many deaths (46 died at Camp Funston), but it was considered mild compared to what was to come. The second and deadliest wave struck in the autumn of 1918 and killed millions. At Camp Funston alone, there were 14,000 cases and 861 deaths reported during the first three weeks of October 1918. Outbreaks caused by a new variant exploded almost simultaneously in many locations including France, Sierra Leone, Boston, and New York City, where more than 20,000 people died that fall. The flu gained its name from Spain, which was one of the hardest hit countries. From there, the flu went through the Middle East and around the world, eventually returning to the United States along with the troops. Of the 57,000 Americans who died in World War I, 43,000 died as a result of the Spanish Flu. At one point, more than 10 percent of the American workforce was bedridden. By a conservative estimate, a fifth of humans suffered the fever and aches of influenza between 1918 and 1919 and 20 million people died. The Spanish Flu came to Tampa Bay, Florida at the end of September 1918, and within a month killed 2,712 Floridians. The state lost a total of 4,000 citizens that year while those who initially survived would die later from pneumonia as their bodies were weakened by the physical impacts of the Spanish Flu. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 208 16F SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT ASIAN FLU (H2N2 VIRUS) OF 1957-1958 This influenza pandemic was first identified in February 1957 in the Far East. Unlike the Spanish Flu, the 1957 virus was quickly identified, and vaccine production began in May 1957. Several small outbreaks occurred in the United States during the summer of 1957, with infection rates highest among school children, young adults, and pregnant women; however, the elderly had the highest rates of death. A second wave of infections occurred early the following year, which is typical of many pandemics. HONG KONG FLU (H3N2 VIRUS) OF 1968-1969 This influenza pandemic was first detected in early 1968 in Hong Kong. The first cases in the United States were detected in September 1968, although widespread illness did not occur until December. This became the mildest pandemic of the twentieth century, with those over the age of 65 the most likely to die. People infected earlier by the Asian Flu virus may have developed some immunity against the Hong Kong Flu virus. Also, this pandemic peaked during school holidays in December, limiting student-related infections. Pandemic Flu Threats: Swine Flu of 1976, Russian Flu of 1977, and Avian Flu of 1997 and 1999 Three notable flu scares occurred in the twentieth century. In 1976, a swine-type influenza virus appeared in a U.S. military barracks (Fort Dix, New Jersey). Scientists determined it was an antigenically drifted variant of the feared 1918 virus. Fortunately, a pandemic never materialized, although the news media made a significant argument about the need for a Swine Flu vaccine. In May 1977, influenza viruses in northern China spread rapidly and caused epidemic disease in children and young adults. By January 1978, the virus, subsequently known as the Russian Flu, had spread around the world, including the United States. A vaccine was developed for the virus for the 1978-1979 flu season. Because illness occurred primarily in children, this was not considered a true pandemic. In March 1997, scores of chickens in Hong Kong's rural New Territories began to die- 6,800 on three farms alone. The Avian Flu virus was especially virulent and made an unusual jump from chickens to humans. At least 18 people were infected, and six died in the outbreak. Chinese authorities acted quickly to exterminate over one million chickens and successfully prevented further spread of the disease. In 1999, a new avian flu virus appeared. The new virus caused illness in two children in Hong Kong. Neither of these avian flu viruses started pandemics. SWINE FLU (H1N1 VIRUS) OF 2009-2010 This influenza pandemic emerged from Mexico in 2009. The first U.S. case of H1N1, or Swine Flu, was diagnosed on April 15, 2009. The U.S. government declared H1N1 a public health emergency on April 26. By June, approximately 18,000 cases of H1N1 had been reported in the United States. A total of 74 countries were affected by the pandemic. The CDC estimates that 43 million to 89 million people were infected with H1N1 between April 2009 and April 2010. There were an estimated 8,870 to 18,300 H1N1 related deaths. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 209 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT On August 10, 2010, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared an end to the global H1N1 flu pandemic. CORONAVIRUS DISEASE (COVID-19), 2019-2024 COVID-19 was caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-Cov- 2). First identified in Wuhan, China in December 2019, the virus quickly spread throughout China and then globally. In the United States, COVID-19 was first identified in late January in Washington State and rapidly spread throughout the Country, with large epicenters on both the east and west coasts. On March 13, 2020 the U.S. enters a nationwide emergency and by March 15, 2020 U.S. states begin to shut down to prevent the spread of COVID-19. Almost a year later the U.S. has administered over 100 million vaccinations. In June 2021 the first major variant, the Delta variant, becomes dominant in the U.S. which kicks off a third wave of infections during the summer of 2021. By December 20, 2021, Omicron, the second and most dominant variant in the U.S., had been detected in most U.S. states and territories. The Omicron variant spread more easily than the original virus that caused COVID-19 and the Delta variant. According to the Johns Hopkins Coronavirus Resource Center, from the start of the pandemic to March 2023, there were over 103 million confirmed cases of COVID-19 in the U.S. resulting in over 1.1 million deaths. In Florida, there were over 7.5 million cases and 86,850 deaths due to COVID-19. Johns Hopkins stopped collecting data as of March 10, 2023. The COVID-19 virus has transitioned to endemic but maintains dual seasonality, with cases peaking twice a year. PUBLIC HEALTH EMERGENCIES — OTHER PANDEMICS ST. LOUIS ENCEPHALITIS, 1964-2005 Between 1964 and 2005, there were 4,651 confirmed cases of SLE in the United States. In 1990 alone, there were 223 cases in Florida. It should be noted, however, that less than 1 percent of SLE infections are clinically apparent, so most infections remain undiagnosed. Illnesses range from mild headaches and fever to convulsions, coma, and paralysis. The last major outbreak of SLE occurred in the Midwest from 1974 to 1977, when over 2,500 cases were reported in 35 states. The most recent outbreak of St. Louis encephalitis was in 1999 in New Orleans, Louisiana, with 20 reported cases. The disease is generally milder in children than in adults, with the elderly at highest risk for severe illness and death. Approximately 3 to 30 percent of cases are fatal; no vaccine against SLE exists. In 2014, two U.S. cases were reported and were the first human cases since 2002. MENINGITIS, 1996-1997, 2005 During 1996 and 1997, 213,658 cases of meningitis were reported, along with 21,830 deaths, in Africa. Between 2005 and 2014, Florida reported 354 cases of meningitis. In 2022, 68 total cases were reported in Florida with 41 cases reported in 2023. LYME DISEASE, 2015 In the United States, Lyme disease is mostly found in the northeastern, mid-Atlantic, and upper north-central regions, and in several counties in northwestern California. In 2019, Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 210 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT 93-percent of confirmed Lyme Disease cases were reported from 14 states: Connecticut, Delaware, Maine, Maryland, Minnesota, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, Virginia, West Virginia, and Wisconsin. Lyme disease is the most commonly reported vector-borne illness in the United States. According to the CDC, recent estimates based on insurance records suggest that approximately 476,000 Americans are diagnosed and treated with Lyme disease each year. This disease does not occur nationwide and is concentrated heavily in the northeast and upper Midwest. In 2022, Collier County had 3 probable cases of Lyme Disease and zero confirmed cases. SEVERE ACUTE RESPIRATORY SYNDROME, 2003 During November 2002-July 2003, a total of 8,098 probable SARS cases were reported to the World Health Organization (WHO) from 29 countries. In the United States, only 8 cases had laboratory evidence of infection. There were no confirmed cases in Florida. Since July 2003, when SARS transmission was declared contained, active global surveillance for SARS disease has detected no person-to-person transmission. CDC has therefore archived the case report summaries for the 2003 outbreak. ZIKA VIRUS, 2015 In May 2015, the Pan American Health Organization issued an alert noting the first confirmed case of a Zika virus infection in Brazil. Since that time, Brazil and other Central and South America countries and territories, as well as the Caribbean, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands have experienced ongoing Zika virus transmission. In August 2016, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) issued guidance for people living in or traveling to a 1-square-mile area in Miami, Florida, identified by the Florida Department of Health as having mosquito-borne spread of Zika. In October 2016, the transmission area was expanded to include a 4.5-square-mile area of Miami Beach and a 1-squre mile area of Miami-Dade County. In addition, all Miami-Dade County was identified as a cautionary area with an unspecified level of risk. As of the end of 2018, the CDC reported 74 cases of Zika across the United States. As of September 2024, there are no current local transmission of Zika virus in the continental U.S. or territories. The last cases of local Zika transmission by mosquitos in the continental U.S. were in Florida and Texas in 2016-17 and no reported cases from U.S. territories since 2019. EBOLA, 2014-2016 Most recently, in March 2014, West Africa experienced the largest outbreak of Ebola in history. Widespread transmission was found in Liberia, Sierra Leone, and Guinea with the number of cases totaling 28,616 and the number of deaths totaling 11,310. In the United States, four cases of Ebola were confirmed in 2014 including a medical aid worker returning to New York from Guinea, two healthcare workers at Texas Presbyterian Hospital who provided care for a diagnosed patient, and the diagnosed patient who traveled to Dallas, Texas from Liberia. All three healthcare workers recovered. The diagnosed patient passed away in October 2014. In March 2016, the WHO terminated the public health emergency for the Ebola outbreak in West Africa. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 211 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT PROBABILITY OF FUTURE OCCURRENCE It is impossible to predict when the next pandemic will occur or its impact. The CDC continually monitors and assesses pandemic threats and prepares for an influenza pandemic and other outbreaks. Because the CDC cannot predict how severe a future pandemic will be, advance planning is needed at the national, state and local level; this planning is done through public health partnerships at the national, state and local level. Today, a much larger percentage of the world's population is clustered in cities, making them ideal breeding grounds for epidemics. Additionally, the explosive growth in air travel means the virus could literally be spread around the globe within hours. Under such conditions, there may be very little warning time. Most experts believe we will have just one to six months between the time that a dangerous new influenza strain is identified and the time that outbreaks begin to occur in the United States. Outbreaks are expected to occur simultaneously throughout much of the nation, preventing shifts in human and material resources that normally occur with other natural disasters. These and many other aspects make influenza pandemic unlike any other public health emergency or community disaster. ■ Probability: 2— Possible CLIMATE CHANGE According to the U.S. Global Change Research Program, the influences of climate change on public health are significant and varied. The influences range from the clear threats of temperature extremes and severe storms to less obvious connections related to insects. Climate and weather can also affect water and food quality in particular areas, with implications for public health. Hot days can be unhealthy—even dangerous. High air temperatures can cause heat stroke and dehydration and affect people's cardiovascular and nervous systems. Florida is heavily influenced by tropical moisture since the state is surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean and the Gulf of Mexico. The heat index can get dangerously high, especially in the summer. In recent decades, severe heat waves have killed hundreds of people across the Southeast. Heat stress is expected to increase as climate change brings hotter summer temperatures and more humidity. Certain people are especially vulnerable, including children, the elderly, the sick, and the poor. Higher temperatures and wetter conditions tend to increase mosquito and tick activity, leading to an increased risk of zoonotic diseases. Mosquitos are known to carry diseases such as West Nile virus (WNV), La Crosse/California encephalitis, Jamestown Canyon virus, St. Louis encephalitis, and Eastern equine encephalitis. The two major concerns associated with warmer and wetter conditions are that the mosquito species already found in Florida and the diseases that they carry will become more prevalent, and that new species carrying unfamiliar diseases will start to appear for the first time. Warmer winters with fewer hard freezes in areas that already see WNV-carrying mosquitos are likely to observe both a higher incidence of WNV and a longer WNV season, ultimately leading to an increase in human cases. Non-native mosquito species Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 212 1 6 F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT may move into Florida if the climate becomes more suitable for them, bringing with them diseases such as Jamestown Canyon virus, Chikungunya, and Dengue Fever. Ticks are also well-known disease vectors in Florida, carrying pathogens such as Lyme disease, anaplasmosis, Ehrlichiosis, Powassan virus, and Babesiosis. Warmer, wetter weather can lead to an increase in algal blooms and declining beach health. An increase in flood events may also be associated with an increased incidence of mold problems in homes and businesses, as well as contamination of wells and surface waters due to sewer overflows and private septic system failures. If these predictions come true, communities must contend with the human health impacts related to the increased prevalence of infectious diseases, heat waves, and changes in air and water quality. Public health officials will need to focus on spreading information and enacting pest and disease reduction. Flood prone communities will need to focus on continuously improving flood controls and mitigation strategies, including restricting building and chemical storage in floodplains, upgrading well and septic requirements, and providing water testing kits to residents. VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT PEOPLE Disease spread and mortality is affected by a variety of factors, including virulence, ease of spread, aggressiveness of the virus and its symptoms, resistance to known antibiotics and environmental factors. While every pathogen is different, diseases normally have the highest mortality rate among the very young, the elderly or those with compromised immune systems. As an example, the unusually deadly 1918 H1N1 influenza pandemic had a mortality rate of 20%. If an influenza pandemic does occur, it is likely that many age groups would be seriously affected. The greatest risks of hospitalization and death— as seen during the last three pandemics in 1957, 1968, and 2019 as well as during annual outbreaks of influenza—will be to infants, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions. However, in the 1918 pandemic, most deaths occurred in young adults. Few people, if any, would have immunity to a new virus. • Population Patterns: o Dense population centers, especially in Naples and Marco Island, increase vulnerability to disease spread. o Disproportionate impacts on elderly populations residing in long-term care facilities. o Growing seasonal population strains healthcare resources during peak flu and respiratory illness seasons. o Underserved Populations: Undocumented workers and low-income families may have limited access to healthcare services, vaccinations, and public health information. Approximately twenty percent of people exposed to West Nile Virus through a mosquito bite develop symptoms related to the virus; it is not transmissible from one person to another. Preventive steps can be taken to reduce exposure to mosquitos carrying the Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 213 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT virus; these include insect repellent, covering exposed skin with clothing and avoiding the outdoors during twilight periods of dawn and dusk, or in the evening when the mosquitos are most active. PROPERTY For the most part, property itself would not be impacted by a human disease epidemic or pandemic. However, as concerns about contamination increase, property may be quarantined or destroyed as a precaution against spreading illness. Furthermore, staffing shortages could affect the function of critical facilities. • Land Use/Development Trends: o Development of high-density housing complexes, increasing transmission risks in shared spaces like public shelters used during large scale emergencies. o Growth of healthcare facilities in areas prone to service disruptions (e.g., flood zones). o Expansion of tourism-related developments, such as hotels and resorts, bringing transient populations to the area. ENVIRONMENT A widespread pandemic would not have an impact on the natural environment unless the disease was transmissible between humans and animals. However, affected areas could result in denial or delays in the use of some areas, and may require remediation.

Hazardous materials may also pose a substantial present or potential hazard to human health or the environment when improperly treated, stored, transported, disposed of, or otherwise managed. Hazardous material incidents can occur while a hazardous substance is stored at a fixed facility, or while the substance is being transported along a road corridor or railroad line or via an enclosed pipeline or other linear infrastructure. The U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT), U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) all have responsibilities relating to the transportation, storage, and use of hazardous materials and waste. The Right to Know Network (RTK NET), maintained by the EPA's National Response Center (NRC), is a primary source of information on the use and storage of hazardous materials, as well as data regarding spills and releases. Hazardous materials are typically divided into the following classes: • Explosives • Compressed gases: flammable, non-flammable compressed, poisonous Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 215 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT • Flammable or combustible liquids • Flammable solids: spontaneously combustible, dangerous when wet • Oxidizers and organic peroxides • Toxic materials: poisonous material, infectious agents • Radioactive material • Corrosive material: destruction of human skin, corrodes steel It is common to see hazardous materials releases as escalating incidents resulting from other hazards such as floods, wildfires, and earthquakes that may cause containment systems to fail or affect transportation infrastructure. The release of hazardous materials can greatly complicate or even eclipse the response to the natural hazards disaster that caused the spill. FIXED HAZARDOUS MATERIALS INCIDENT A fixed hazardous materials incident is the accidental release of chemical substances or mixtures during production or handling at a fixed facility. While these incidents can sometimes involve large quantities of materials, their locations can be more easily predicted and monitored. TRANSPORTATION HAZARDOUS MATERIALS INCIDENT A transportation hazardous materials incident is the accidental release of chemical substances or mixtures during transport. Transportation Hazardous Materials Incidents in Collier County can occur during highway or air transport. Highway accidents involving hazardous materials pose a great potential for public exposures. Both nearby populations and motorists can be impacted and become exposed by accidents and releases. If airplanes carrying hazardous cargo crash, or otherwise leak contaminated cargo, populations and the environment in the impacted area can become exposed. PIPELINE INCIDENT A pipeline transportation incident occurs when a break in a pipeline creates the potential for an explosion or leak of a dangerous substance (oil, gas, etc.) possibly requiring evacuation. An underground pipeline incident can be caused by environmental disruption, accidental damage, or sabotage. Incidents can range from a small, slow leak to a large rupture where an explosion is possible. Inspection and maintenance of the pipeline system along with marked gas line locations and an early warning and response procedure can lessen the risk to those near the pipelines. • Warning Time: 4 — Less than six hours • Duration: 2— Less than 24 hours LOCATION The Toxics Release Inventory (TRI) Program run by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) maintains a database of industrial facilities across the country and the type and quantity of toxic chemicals they release. The program also tracks pollution prevention Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 216 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT activities and which facilities are reducing toxic releases. The Toxic Release Inventory reports 13 sites reporting hazardous materials in Collier County. These sites are shown in Figure 2.49 and detailed in Table 2.96. Collier County and all its jurisdictions are susceptible to hazardous materials releases.

The U.S. Department of Transportation Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA), which records hazardous material incidents across the country, defines a "serious incident" as a hazardous materials incident that involves: • A fatality or major injury caused by the release of a hazardous material • The evacuation of 25 or more persons as a result of the release of a hazardous material or exposure to fire • A release or exposure to fire which results in the closure of a major transportation artery • The alteration of an aircraft flight plan or operation, • The release of radioactive materials from Type B packaging • The release of over 11.9 galls or 88.2 pounds of a severe marine pollutant • The release of a bulk quantity (over 199 gallons or 882 pounds) of a hazardous material • Impact: 2— Limited HISTORICAL OCCURRENCES The USDOT's PHMSA maintains a database of reported hazardous materials incidents, which are summarized below in Table 2.97. According to PHMSA records, there were 69 recorded releases in Collier County in the 24-year period from 2000 through 2023. Of these events, 12 had serious impacts, including nine serious bulk releases; one event flagged for serious evacuation, two minor injuries, and four events resulting in the closure of major transportation arteries. In total, these events caused $1,701,569 in damages and have not caused any fatalities. Approximately, 90 percent of hazardous materials incidents within Collier County have occurred in Naples.

Using historical occurrences as an indication of future probability, there is a 50 percent annual probability of a serious hazardous materials incident occurring. • Probability: 3— Likely CLIMATE CHANGE Climate change is not expected to impact hazardous materials incidents. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 222 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT PEOPLE Hazardous materials incidents can cause injuries, hospitalizations, and even fatalities to people nearby. People living near hazardous facilities and along transportation routes may be at a higher risk of exposure, particularly those living or working downstream and downwind from such facilities. For example, a toxic spill or a release of an airborne chemical near a populated area can lead to significant evacuations and have a high potential for loss of life. Individuals working with or transporting hazardous materials are also at heightened risk. In addition to the immediate health impacts of releases, a handful of studies have found long term health impacts such as increased incidence of certain cancers and birth defects among people living near certain chemical facilities. However there has not been enough research done on the subject to allow detailed analysis. • Population Patterns: o Population increases near industrial zones and major transportation corridors. o Expansion of neighborhoods adjacent to hazardous material facilities and highways. o Schools, healthcare facilities, and residential communities at greater risk due to proximity to major routes. o Underserved Populations: Low-income communities near industrial zones may lack adequate emergency plans or transportation for timely evacuation. Migrant farm worker communities may be more exposed to hazardous materials because of the nature of their work in agriculture. The primary economic impact of hazardous material incidents results from lost business, delayed deliveries, property damage, and potential contamination. Large and publicized hazardous material-related events can deter tourists and could potentially discourage residents and businesses. Economic effects from major transportation corridor closures can be significant. PROPERTY The impact of a fixed hazardous facility, such as a chemical processing facility is typically localized to the property where the incident occurs. The impact of a small spill (i.e. liquid spill) may also be limited to the extent of the spill and remediated if needed. While cleanup costs from major spills can be significant, they do not typically cause significant long-term impacts to property. • Land Use/Development Trends: o Increased construction along highways that transport hazardous materials. o Lack of buffer zones between industrial areas and residential communities. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 223 16F SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT o New commercial and industrial developments adding to hazardous material transportation volume. o Expansion of utility corridors and fuel storage facilities in growing areas Impacts of hazardous material incidents on critical facilities are most often limited to the area or facility where they occurred, such as at a transit station, airport, fire station, hospital, or railroad. However, they can cause long-term traffic delays and road closures resulting in major delays in the movement of goods and services. These impacts can spread beyond the planning area to affect neighboring counties, or vice-versa. While cleanup costs from major spills can be significant, they do not typically cause significant long-term impacts to critical facilities. ENVIRONMENT Hazardous material incidents may affect a small area at a regulated facility or cover a large area outside such a facility. Widespread effects occur when hazards contaminate the groundwater and eventually the municipal water supply, or they migrate to a major waterway or aquifer. Impacts on wildlife and natural resources can also be significant. CONSEQUENCE ANALYSIS Table 2.98 summarizes the potential detrimental consequences of hazardous materials incident. Table 2.98 — Consequence Analysis — Hazardous Materials Incident Category Consequences Public Contact with hazardous materials could cause serious illness or death. Those living and working closest to hazardous materials sites face the greatest risk of exposure. Exposure may also occur through contamination of food or water supplies. Responders Responders face similar risks as the general public but a heightened potential for exposure to hazardous materials. Continuity of Operations (including Continued A hazardous materials incident may cause temporary road closures or other localized Delivery of Services) impacts but is unlikely to affect continuity of operations. Property, Facilities and Some hazardous materials are flammable, explosive, and/or corrosive,which could Infrastructure result in structural damages to property. Impacts would be highly localized. Environment Consequences depend on the type of material released. Possible ecological impacts include loss of wildlife, loss of habitat, and degradation of air and/or water quality. Economic Condition of Clean up, remediation, and/or litigation costs may apply. Long-term economic damage the Jurisdiction is unlikely. Public Confidence in the A hazardous materials incident may affect public confidence if the environmental or Jurisdiction's health impacts are enduring. Governance HAZARD SUMMARY BY JURISDICTION The following table summarizes hazardous materials hazard risk by jurisdiction. Probability of future occurrence was based on records of past occurrences, with a greater incidence of releases in Naples. Other variables of hazard materials risk do not vary substantially between jurisdictions.

Usually associated with marine spills, they are caused by the release of oil from offshore platforms, drilling rigs, tankers, ships that have sunk, and any vehicle used to transport crude oil, over the water or land. These spills have major effects including continual damage to the environment and a financial loss to communities affected. The Gulf of Mexico is one of the world's most significant regions for oil and gas extraction due to its significant geological makeup and large oil and gas fields. Since offshore drilling began in 1942, more than 6,000 oil and gas extraction structures have been erected in the Gulf. According to NOAA, these structures range in size from single well caissons in 10 feet water depths to large complex facilities in water depths up to 10,000 feet. Hundreds of these structures have been deactivated and taken down over the years. As of October 2022, there are 13 operating rigs in the Gulf of Mexico, all drilling for crude oil. While there are currently no drilling rigs on the east coast of Florida, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce predicts that rigs could be seen in the future as exploration estimates roughly 4.72 billion barrels of recoverable oil and 37.51 trillion cubic feet of recoverable natural gas from Maine to Florida. In 2021 , Florida produced about 1.49 million barrels of crude oil. It is estimated that the Gulf of Mexico offshore oil production makes up 15% of the total crude oil production of the United States. An oil spill could have severe detrimental impacts on the natural environment, primarily impacting shorelines and beaches. Given Collier County's dependence on tourism, which relies heavily on beach access, an oil spill could have a catastrophic impact on the county's economy. In Collier County, tourism is the leading employer and the primary economic engine. The Collier County Tourism Development Council reported that in 2023, Collier County had over 2.3 million tourists visit the County, spending an estimated $2.1 billion, resulting in a total economic impact of over $3 billion to Collier County. • Warning Time: 3 — 6 to 12 hours • Duration: 4 — More than 1 week Collier County,FL WSp Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 225 16F 4- SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT LOCATION While there are no drilling rigs off the coast of Collier County, Figure 2.51 shows the location of oil drilling rigs in the Gulf of Mexico by feet below sea level and year. It also shows the location of the Deepwater Horizon accident. Figure 2.52 shows the extent of Deepwater Horizon accident, which was the most devastating oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico to date and is further detailed in the historical occurrences section below. Oil spills have the potential to impact all coastal areas of Collier County, including its municipalities and unincorporated coastal regions. Collier County, along with its coastal jurisdictions (Naples, Marco Island, Everglades City), and other unincorporated coastal communities (Port of the Islands) are particularly susceptible to the effects of coastal oil spills, which can threaten local ecosystems, tourism, and economic activities. • Spatial Extent: 2— Small Figure 2.51 — Location of Oil Drilling Rigs in the Gulf of Mexico Feet below sea level 0 200 Year 200•1,000 ( 1,000•2,500 1912 Q974�` - -- MKs�ss�ppi O 2,500•5000 1975 1909 Alabama 1990-2000 O 5,000 6,400 2001.2005 lowsMro .I O0espwstartql He on C{ . - •: -4. 5000 beIo w Mvs1 bWtn2001 ) t% • Lei,.. • 7.

O Enrydopasdia Britannica,Inc. Od found on coast Source: Encyclopedia Britannica EXTENT The extent of coastal oil spills can vary greatly. The NOAA Office of Response and Restoration responds to over 150 oil and chemical spills in U.S. waters every year. It is estimated that 1 .3 million gallons of petroleum are spilled in U.S. waters every year. The Deepwater Horizon spill released 210 million gallons. The consequential extent, or the extent of organisms, mammals, and the environment that are negatively affected can be huge. However, given the lack of oil rigs off the coast of Collier County, current extent is limited. Oil spills could still result from tankers while oil is being transported. • Impact: 2 — Limited HISTORICAL OCCURRENCES NOAA's Office of Response and Restoration has categorized the largest oil spills within U.S. waters by spill volume as shown in Figure 2.53. However, it is important to remember that location, time of year, environmental sensitivity, and type of oil are also major factors in determining the overall significance of an oil spill. Additionally, NOAA reported a total of 222 incidents of potential oil spills off the coast of Florida with the earliest recorded incident occurring October 5th, 1978 in Tampa Bay, Florida. During this incident a dry bulk carrier discharged approximately 952 barrels of diesel into the Port Sutton Channel. The oil spread over approximately 20 miles and impacted 15 separate shorelines. One of the closest oil spills to occur near Collier County happened on November 4th, 2013, when a 68-foot commercial shrimper sunk 32 miles offshore southwest of Naples. The vessel was reported to have 800 gallons of diesel fuel on board. The crew was rescued but the vessel was never located.

The blowout occurred at 1,500 meters deep and under pressures 150 times that at sea level. This was named the Deepwater Horizon oil spill. The Florida impacts of the 2010 Deepwater Horizon incident were mostly limited and contained, but the predictions at the time of potential impacts were severe. Moody's Analytics released a report which stated, should a significant amount of oil wash onto Florida's shores, the economic impact from tourism-related tax revenue and job losses could rival that of the ongoing recession and simulate a double dip recession. Following the lawsuits, Florida received over 200 million dollars in a settlement for lost tourism income. In addition to economic impacts, an oil spill in Florida or off its shores could have severe consequences for wildlife, ecosystems, and the ecology. The Deepwater Horizon spill affected the wildlife populations of numerous species of turtles, birds, bottlenose dolphins, whales, and fish. Gulf states saw a decrease in bottlenose reproduction and a rise in deaths, the Kemp's Ridley Sea turtle, already endangered, saw a massive drop in numbers, and scientists estimate the habitats on the bottom of the Gulf could take anywhere from multiple decades to hundreds of years to fully recover. The spill lasted for five months but some reports say it had been leaking for so long, that it could have been a 14-year long oil spill. Eleven people were killed and seventeen were injured from the wellhead blowout that caused the leak. As a result of the Deepwater Horizon spill, Florida began funding remediation projects with settlements from the spill, including with non-operating investors. There are 131 Collier County,FL wSp Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 228 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT projects which include stormwater management, habitat restoration, unpaved roads and wetland initiatives, water quality improvements. Three of these projects are just north of Collier in Lee and Charlotte Counties. The website "floridadep.gov/wra/deepwater- horizon" details the Deepwater Horizon Program and links to a story map highlighting all the projects. PROBABILITY OF FUTURE OCCURRENCE Since the U.S. is reliant on fossil fuels such as oil, and accidents happen, it is highly likely that another oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico will occur again. However, the probability of an oil spill impacting the Collier County coast is lower. • Probability: 2— Possible CLIMATE CHANGE Climate change is not expected to impact coastal oil spills. Though climate change in addition to a coastal oil spill could be detrimental for environmental, animal, and human health. VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT Oil spill damage is directly related to the amount of oil spilled, the location of the spill, and the movement of the currents. PEOPLE Some injuries but no human deaths have been recorded from an oil spill. However, there were a total of eleven deaths and seventeen injuries from the explosion that caused the Deepwater Horizon oil spill. • Population Patterns: o Increasing population density along coastal areas, leading to greater exposure to potential oil spill impacts. o Tourism-driven expansion, with seasonal residents and tourists increasing the number of individuals affected by oil spills. o Aging population, with elderly residents facing heightened health risks from oil spill contaminants and response challenges. o Economic disparities, where wealthier communities may recover faster, while lower-income areas may struggle with prolonged impacts. o Underserved Populations: Low-income and minority communities often reside in areas with limited access to resources for oil spill response and recovery. Language and cultural barriers may hinder effective communication and emergency response efforts. Dependence on coastal resources for livelihood, such as fishing and tourism-related employment, exacerbating financial hardship during spills. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 229 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT PROPERTY Oil spills can cause severe property damage to oil rigs, pipeline infrastructure, and beaches and cost lots of money for clean-up. • Land Use/Development Trends: o Coastal urbanization, with increasing residential and commercial development in high-risk coastal zones. o Expansion of industrial and port infrastructure, increasing the potential for spills from shipping, storage, and offshore drilling operations. o Environmental conservation efforts, including the protection of wetlands and mangroves that serve as natural barriers against oil contamination. o Increased waterfront development, with new marinas, resorts, and recreational facilities at risk of oil spill exposure. o Infrastructure vulnerabilities, as aging stormwater and wastewater systems may exacerbate oil spill contamination and complicate cleanup efforts. o Resilience planning initiatives aimed at improving preparedness, including zoning regulations and emergency response capabilities ENVIRONMENT Oil spills can be one of the most harmful hazards for the environment. Many aquatic ecosystems can be destroyed and take hundreds of years to replenish. There are often huge numbers of dead or sick aquatic life after oil spills. It is estimated that only 2% of the marine life carcasses from the Deepwater Horizon spill were found or washed up. CONSEQUENCE ANALYSIS Table 2.99 details the consequences of a coastal oil spill. Table 2.99 — Consequence Analysis — Coastal Oil Spills Category ' Consequences Public Localized impact expected to be severe for affected areas and moderate to light for other less affected areas. Responders Adverse impact expected to be severe for unprotected personnel and moderate to light for trained, equipped, and protected personnel. Continuity of Operations Localized disruption of trade or ferry routes and higher demand of (including Continued petroleum, therefore creating a price increase) caused by incident may Delivery of Services) postpone delivery or use of some services. Property, Facilities and Localized impact to facilities and infrastructure in the areas of the incident. Infrastructure Beaches most adversely affected. Environment Environmental damage to beaches, marine life, aquatic ecosystems, and other life forms who get sustenance from the water. Economic Condition of Local economy and finances may be adversely affected, depending on the Jurisdiction I damage. The tourism industry could take a large hit. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 230 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT Public Confidence in the Ability to respond and recover may be questioned and challenged if Jurisdiction's Governance planning, response, and recovery is not timely and effective. HAZARD SUMMARY BY JURISDICTION The following table summarizes coastal oil spill hazard risk by jurisdiction. Jurisdictions with shoreline at risk were assigned a probability of 2 (possible), an impact of 2 (limited), and a spatial extent of 2 (small).

Radiological incidents related to transportation are described as an incident resulting in a release of radioactive material during transportation. Transportation of radioactive materials through Florida over the interstate highway system is considered a radiological hazard. The transportation of radioactive material by any means of transport is licensed and regulated by the federal government. As a rule, there are two categories of radioactive materials that are shipped over the interstate highways: • Low level waste consists primarily of materials that have been contaminated by low level radioactive substances but pose no serious threat except through long- term exposure. These materials are shipped in sealed drums within placarded trailers. The danger to the public is no more than a wide array of other hazardous materials. • High level waste, usually in the form of spent fuel from nuclear power plants, is transported in specially constructed casks that are built to withstand a direct hit from a locomotive. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 231 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT Radiological emergencies at nuclear power plants are divided into classifications. Table 2.100 shows these classifications, as well as descriptions of each. Table 2.100 — Radiological Emergency Classifications Emergency Classification Description Events are in progress or have occurred which indicate a potential degradation of the Notification of Unusual level of safety of the plant or indicate a security threat to facility protection has been Event(NOUE) initiated. No releases of radioactive material requiring offsite response or monitoring are expected unless further degradation of safety systems occurs. Events are in progress or have occurred which involve an actual or potential substantial degradation of the level of safety of the plant or a security event that Alert involves probable life-threatening risk to site personnel or damage to site equipment because of hostile action.Any releases are expected to be limited to small fractions of the Environmental Protection Agency(EPA)Protective Action Guides(PAGs) Events are in progress or have occurred which involve actual or likely major failures of plant functions needed for protection of the public or hostile action that results in Site Area Emergency intentional damage or malicious acts; 1)toward site personnel or equipment that (SAE) could lead to the likely failure of or; 2)that prevent effective access to, equipment needed for the protection of the public.Any releases are not expected to result in exposure levels which exceed EPA PAG exposure levels beyond the site boundary. Events are in progress or have occurred which involve actual or imminent substantial core degradation or melting with potential for loss of containment integrity or hostile General Emergency action that results in an actual loss of physical control of the facility. Releases can be reasonably expected to exceed EPA PAG exposure levels offsite for more than the immediate site area. • Warning Time: 4 — Less than 6 hours • Duration: 4 — More than one week LOCATION Turkey Point Nuclear Generating Station, located in the south of Miami-Dade County and southeast of the planning area, is a twin reactor nuclear power station. It has three currently operating units including two 802-megawatt units (units 3 and 4) and one 1,150- megawatt unit (unit 5). There are two retired 404-megawatt units (units 1 and 2) still on- site. Commercial operation began in 1967 and the most recent unit was completed in 2007. Units 3 and 4 are pressurized water reactors and unit 5 is a combined-cycle gas- fired unit. As the sixth largest power plant in the United States and third largest in Florida, it serves all of southern Florida. The plant is operated with a very high level of security. This is the location from which the most catastrophic nuclear accident might occur and will be the focal point of the nuclear analysis in this plan. In December of 2019, units 3 and 4 at Turkey Point Nuclear Generating Station was granted the world's first 80-year operating license. The Nuclear Regulatory Commission defines two emergency planning zones around nuclear plants: • Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ) — The EPZ is a 10-mile radius around nuclear facilities, also called the Plume Exposure Pathway, where the risk of radioactive exposure is highest. The primary concern is inhalation and exposure to radioactive contamination. Predetermined action plans, including evacuation, Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 232 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT sheltering, and potassium-iodide use, aim to minimize exposure during a nuclear incident. Collier County and its jurisdictions are outside the EPZ. • Ingestion Pathway Zone (IPZ) — The IPZ is a federally designated 50-mile radius around nuclear facilities, also known as the Ingestion Exposure Pathway. It is established to prevent contamination of the human food chain following a radiological incident at a nuclear power facility. Radionuclides can contaminate fresh produce, water supplies, and other food sources by settling on surfaces. Figure 2.54 shows the location of Turkey Point Nuclear Generating Station and the approximate 10-mile Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ) buffer and 50-mile Ingestion Pathway Zone (IPZ) around the plant. While none of the planning area is within the 10- mile EPZ, the southeast corner of Collier County is within the 50-mile IPZ. • Spatial Extent: 2 — Small Figure 2.54 — Turkey Point Nuclear Generating Station Location in Relation to Planning Area A Immokslee ReserveDon an • 11 Naples{ m — —` fFfb` \ Marco Island` .: 0 Everglades 0 10 20 M Mlles Collier County,FL Turkey Point Nuclear Power Stations EPZ&IPZ Date:8/1912024 SOn1C.: US FU MO l a1 wrr P.e Legend Prepared Er: Projection: Wee ra: iPs wor(US ren) I Mrniapality Q Flue Exposure Pathway ` )` I t Turkey Point Nudear Facility l �Co11ier C'ou Ingestion Exposure Pathway MajorRoads Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 233 1 6 F 4. SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT Source: U.S. Energy Information Administration The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) defines two emergency planning zones around nuclear plants. The first, a 10-mile radius, is the highest-risk zone where exposure to and inhalation of radioactive contamination are the primary concerns. This area is also the designated evacuation zone recommended by the NRC. The second zone, extending 50 miles from the plant, focuses on the risk of ingesting contaminated food and water. Although only a small portion of Collier County falls within the 50-mile Ingestion Pathway Zone (IPZ), areas such as Everglades City and Port of the Islands are nearby. Additionally, a small section of the major transportation route US-41 lies within the IPZ, further increasing the potential for radiological exposure through the movement of food goods by truck. These factors position Collier County and its jurisdictions to be affected by a potential radiological release from the Turkey Point Nuclear Power Plant. EXTENT The International Atomic Energy Association (IAEA) developed the International Nuclear and Radiological Event Scale to quantify the magnitude of radiological events. This scale is logarithmic, meaning each increasing level represents a 10-fold increase in severity compared to the previous level. -Major Accident c Serious Accident a) 7 Accident With Wider Consequences Accident With Local Consequences 4 Serious Incident c Incident a) -c c Anomaly Deviation 0 Source: International Atomic Energy Association • Impact: 4 — Catastrophic HISTORICAL OCCURRENCES May 8, 1974 — During a routine test, it was discovered that two of the three Emergency Feedwater pumps which served unit 3 failed due to overtightened packing. The third Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 234 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT pump also failed but was caused by a malfunction in the turbine. These failures, had they not been found and corrected, could have led to a nuclear disaster if other failures had occurred simultaneously. August 24, 1992 — Category 5 Hurricane Andrew hit Turkey Point causing damage to many systems. The fire protection systems were partly disabled, two raw water tanks were destroyed, a third was drained, and the smokestack on unit 1 cracked. Offsite power was lost so onsite generators had to be operated for numerous days. February 26, 2008—The loss of offsite power prompted both reactors to shut down which led to a widespread power outage affecting 700,000 customers and a total of 2.5 million people. The originating event was an overheated voltage switch that caught fire in a substation 23 miles away from Turkey Point. Power was restored within 5 hours of the blackout. Large commercial locations such as Walt Disney World, Orlando International Airport, and Miami International Airport were affected. March 18, 2017—An electrical fault happened in unit 3 causing the loss of a safety system and a reactor trip. This fault caused an arc flash which minorly burned one plant worker. All other safety systems were operational so there was no threat to the community or environment. August 17, 2020 — Over a four-day period Turkey point experienced three different unplanned shutdowns in a row. On August 17th, Turkey Point operators manually shut down the reactor due to rising steam generator water levels. On August 19th, the plant's protection system automatically shut down the reactor during startup when an instrument sensed higher-than-expected neutron activity in the reactor core. On August 20th, operators manually shut down the reactor after the loss of a steam generator feed water pump. Experiencing frequent shutdowns in a short amount of time is uncommon and ultimately required a special inspection from the NRC to ensure safety protocols were being met. As of January 2025, there have been no publicly reported significant deviations, anomalies, incidents, or accidents at Turkey Point beyond those previously mentioned. The plant continues to operate under the enhanced oversight imposed by the NRC following the 2020 events. PROBABILITY OF FUTURE OCCURRENCE Radiological hazards are highly unpredictable. Nuclear reactors present the possibility of catastrophic damages, yet the industry is highly regulated and historical precedence suggests an incident is unlikely. • Probability: 1 — Unlikely CLIMATE CHANGE Climate change is not projected to have any impact on a potential nuclear power plant incident. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 235 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT PEOPLE People within the 50-mile EPZ are at risk of exposure through ingestion of contaminated food and water. Low levels of radiation are not considered harmful, but a high exposure to radiation can cause serious illness or death. • Population Patterns: o Increased population in southeastern Collier County near the Turkey Point Nuclear Power Facility's ingestion pathway. o Higher seasonal population levels during the winter months may affect emergency evacuation capacity. o Vulnerable populations, such as children and individuals with disabilities, may require specialized transportation and sheltering. o Underserved Populations: Low-income families may lack the resources to evacuate or afford temporary relocation during an incident. Non-English- speaking communities may face communication barriers regarding nuclear hazard protocols. PROPERTY A radiological incident could cause severe damage to the power station itself but would not cause direct property damage outside the station, especially with the distance between the reactor and the planning area. However, property values could drop substantially if a radiological incident resulted in contamination of nearby areas. • Land Use/Development Trends: o Expansion of residential and commercial developments within the potential impact zone. o Development of critical infrastructure, such as water and energy systems, within potential radiation exposure zones. o Growth of evacuation-sensitive developments, such as schools and hospitals, in areas lacking alternative access routes. ENVIRONMENT A radiological incident could result in the spread of radioactive material into the environment, which could contaminate water and food sources and harm animal and plant life. These impacts are lessened the further an area is to the plant site. CONSEQUENCE ANALYSIS Table 2.101 summarizes the potential detrimental consequences of radiological incident. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 236 16F SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT Table 2.101 — Consequence Analysis — Radiological Incident Category Consequences Public High levels of radiation could cause serious illness or death. Those living and working closest to the nuclear plant would face the greatest risk of exposure. Responders Responders face potential for heightened exposure to radiation, which could cause severe chronic illness and death. Continuity of Operations An incident at the nuclear plant could interrupt power generation and (including Continued cause power shortages. Regular operations would likely be affected by the Delivery of Services) response effort an event would require. Property, Facilities and The plant itself could be damaged by a radiological incident. Nearby Infrastructure property and facilities could be affected by contamination. Environment Water supplies, food crops, and livestock within 50 miles of the nuclear plant could be contaminated by radioactive material in the event of a major incident. Economic Condition of The local economy could be affected if a radiological incident caused the Jurisdiction contamination of nearby areas. Property values and economic activity could decline as a result. Public Confidence in the A radiological incident would likely cause severe loss of public confidence Jurisdiction's Governance given that the hazard is human-caused and highly regulated. Public confidence can also be affected by false alarms. HAZARD SUMMARY BY JURISDICTION The following table summarizes nuclear power plant risk by jurisdiction. Jurisdictions overlapping the Ingestion Pathway Zone of the closest nuclear power plant were given an impact of 4 (catastrophic) and a spatial extent of 2 (small). Jurisdictions further away from the IPZ were given an impact of 3 (critical) and a spatial extent of 1 (negligible). Probability, warning time, and duration are uniform across jurisdictions.

Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 237 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT 2.5.17 TERRORISM HAZARD DESCRIPTION There is no universal globally agreed-upon definition of terrorism. In a broad sense, terrorism is the use of violence and threats to intimidate or coerce, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims. Terrorism is defined in the United States by the Code of Federal Regulations as "the unlawful use of force or violence against persons or property to intimidate or coerce a government, civilian population, or any segment thereof, in furtherance of political or social objectives." For this analysis, this hazard encompasses the following sub-hazards: enemy attack, biological terrorism, chemical terrorism, conventional terrorism, and radiological terrorism. These hazards can occur anywhere and demonstrate unlawful force, violence, and/or threat against persons or property causing intentional harm for purposes of intimidation, coercion or ransom in violation of the criminal laws of the United States. These actions may cause massive destruction and/or extensive casualties. The threat of terrorism, both international and domestic, is ever present, and an attack can occur when least expected. Enemy attack is an incident that could cause massive destruction and extensive casualties throughout the world. Some areas could experience direct weapons' effects: blast and heat; others could experience indirect weapons' effect. International political and military activities of other nations are closely monitored by the federal government and the State of Florida would be notified of any escalating military threats. The use of biological agents against persons or property in violation of the criminal laws of the United States for purposes of intimidation, coercion or ransom can be described as biological terrorism. Liquid or solid contaminants can be dispersed using sprayers/aerosol generators or by point of line sources such as munitions, covert deposits and moving sprayers. Biological agents vary in the amount of time they pose a threat. They can be a threat for hours to years depending upon the agent and the conditions in which it exists. Chemical terrorism involves the use or threat of chemical agents against persons or property in violation of the criminal laws of the United States for purposes of intimidation, coercion or ransom. Effects of chemical contaminants are like those of biological agents. Use of conventional weapons and explosives against persons or property in violation of the criminal laws of the United States for purposes of intimidations, coercion, or ransom is conventional terrorism. Hazard effects are instantaneous; additional secondary devices may be used, lengthening the time duration of the hazard until the attack site is determined to be clear. The extent of damage is determined by the type and quantity of explosive. Effects are generally static other than cascading consequences and incremental structural failures. Conventional terrorism can also include tactical assault or sniping from remote locations. Radiological terrorism is the use of radiological materials against persons or property in violation of the criminal laws of the United States for purposes of intimidation, coercion or ransom. Radioactive contaminants can be dispersed using sprayers/aerosol generators, or by point of line sources such as munitions, covert deposits and moving sprayers or by Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 238 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT the detonation of a nuclear device underground, at the surface, in the air or at high altitude. Electronic attack using one computer system against another in order to intimidate people or disrupt other systems is a cyber-attack. All governments, businesses and citizens that conduct business utilizing computers face these threats. Cyber-security and critical infrastructure protection are among the most important national security issues facing our country today. The Florida Department of Law Enforcement Computer Crime Center helps law enforcement across the State solve sophisticated crimes involving digital evidence. Cyber attack is discussed in greater detail in Section 2.5.20. Mass demonstrations, or direct conflict by large groups of citizens, as in riots and non- peaceful strikes, are examples of public disorder. These are assembling of people together in a manner to substantially interfere with public peace to constitute a threat, and with use of unlawful force or violence against another person, or causing property damage or attempting to interfere with, disrupting, or destroying the government, political subdivision, or group of people. Labor strikes and work stoppages are not considered in this hazard unless they escalate into a threat to the community. Vandalism is usually initiated by a small number of individuals and limited to a small target or institution. Most events are within the capacity of local law enforcement. Civil disturbance is discussed in greater detail in Section 2.5.19. The Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) reports115 active hate groups in Florida, shown in Table 2.102. The SPLC defines a hate group as any group with "beliefs or practices that attack or malign an entire class of people — particularly when the characteristics being maligned are immutable." It is important to note that inclusion on the SPLC list is not meant to imply that a group advocates or engages in violence or other criminal activity.

given for specific acts of terrorism. Duration is dependent on the vehicle used during the terrorist attack. This score considers a prolonged scenario with continuous impacts. LOCATION A terrorist threat could occur anywhere in Collier County, but it is more likely to target highly populated areas, critical infrastructure, or symbolic locations. Collier County and its jurisdictions remain vulnerable to such threats, with any of the critical facilities identified by the LMS Working Group being potential targets. • Spatial Extent: 1 — Negligible Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 242 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT EXTENT The extent of a terrorist incident is tied to many factors, including the attack vector, location, time of day, and other circumstances; for this reason, it is difficult to put assess a single definition or conclusion of the extent of "terrorism." As a general rule, terrorism incidents are targeted to where they can do the most damage and have the maximum impact possible, though this impact is tempered by the weapon used in the attack itself. • Impact: 4 — Catastrophic HISTORICAL OCCURRENCES As noted in the previous Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy, there have been no major terror events in the County, thus the hazard risk had not previously been analyzed. There is still, however, some possibility that one could occur in the future given the incidents that have occurred in the United States in the past and the facilities and locations in the county that could be potential targets. PROBABILITY OF FUTURE OCCURRENCE While difficult to estimate when a deliberate act like terrorism may occur, it can be inferred that the probability of a terrorist attack in any one area in the County is very low at any given time. When identified, credible threats may increase the probability of an incident; these threats are generally tracked by law enforcement. • Probability: 1 — Unlikely CLIMATE CHANGE Climate change is not expected to influence terrorism. However, climate change could cause more protests, gatherings, or votes which could be targets for terrorism. VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT PEOPLE People can suffer death or illness as a result of a terrorist attack. Symptoms of illness from a biological or chemical attack may go undetected for days or even weeks. Local healthcare workers may observe a pattern of unusual illness or early warning monitoring systems may detect airborne pathogens. People will face increased risk if a biological or chemical agent is released indoors, as this may result in exposure to a higher concentration of pathogens, whereas agents that are released outdoors would disperse in the direction of the wind. Physical harm from a weapons attack or explosive device is not dependent on location, but risk is greater in areas where higher numbers of people may gather. People could also be affected by an attack on food and water supply. In addition to impacts on physical health, any terrorist attack could cause significant stress and anxiety. • Population Patterns: o Growing population near key government and public facilities. o Increased public gatherings during large-scale events and seasonal festivities. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 243 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT o Vulnerable populations, such as schoolchildren and event attendees, concentrated in high-profile venues. o Underserved Populations: Minority communities may be disproportionately affected during certain targeted attacks. Residents with limited transportation options may face difficulties evacuating from large public venues. PROPERTY The potential for damage to property is highly dependent on the type of attack. Buildings and infrastructure may be damaged by an explosive device or by contamination from a biological or chemical attack. Impacts are generally highly localized to the target of the attack. • Land Use/Development Trends: o Expansion of large venues, convention centers, and tourism hubs that could be potential targets. o Development of transportation hubs with limited physical security measures. o Increased commercial activity in urban centers, creating high-density zones with critical infrastructure. ENVIRONMENT Environmental impacts are also dependent on the type of attack. Impacts could be negligible or could require major clean-up and remediation. CONSEQUENCE ANALYSIS Table 2.103 summarizes the potential detrimental consequences of a terror threat. Table 2.103 — Consequence Analysis — Terrorism Category Consequences Public Illness, injury, or fatality are possible;these impacts would be highly localized to the attack.Widespread stress and psychological suffering may occur. Responders Responders face increased risks during an effort to stop an attack or rescue others while an attack is underway. Continuity of Operations Critical infrastructure may be targeted by an attack;therefore, continuity of operations (including Continued may be affected. Long-term issues may arise if transportation or utility infrastructure is Delivery of Services) severely damaged. Property, Facilities and Impacts depend of the type of attack.

In Florida, immigrants and refugees primarily come from the Caribbean, Mexico, and South America. Their arrival may pose risks to public health, safety, and welfare, both for local residents and for the immigrants themselves, particularly if they are detained for extended periods. To address this the State of Florida has collaborated with the federal government to develop a Mass Immigration Annex, which bridges the gap between the federal Mass Immigration Plan and the National Response Framework. While enforcing immigration laws remains a federal responsibility, Collier County officials may need to work closely with state and federal agencies to manage a mass migration event. MASS MIGRATION According to FEMA, mass migration is defined as "the sudden and large-scale movement of people across boarders, typically as a result of political instability, natural disasters, or economic hardship". A continuous and high-volume influx of migrants over an extended period could overwhelm the usual capacity of local United States Coast Guard and Customs and Boarder Protection offices. Undocumented individuals may struggle to assimilate without further straining local economies and already burdened infrastructure. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 245 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT UNACCOMPANIED MINORS FEMA defines an unaccompanied minor as a child who has no lawful immigration status in the United States. An unaccompanied child is under the age of 18 and has either no parent or legal guardian in the United States or legal guardian in the United States available to provide care and physical custody. These children often leave their home countries to reunite with family members already in the U.S. They migrate for various reasons such as search of employment or educational opportunities in the United States. If an unaccompanied child is detained by immigration authorities, they are placed under the care and protection of the Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR). Federal law mandates that ORR provide food, shelter, and medical care for these children until they can be safely released to sponsors, usually family members, while awaiting their immigration proceedings. According to the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services, Collier County had a total of 405 unaccompanied minors released to sponsors in 2024 through July. MASS IMMIGRATION Mass Immigration is defined as a significant influx of people from different countries settling into a new country to live. Immigration is the process by which individuals move to a country where they are not native or citizens, intending to live there. According to U.S. Code, an immigrant is defined as either someone applying for entry into the United States at a port-of-entry or a person intercepted in international or U.S. waters and brought into the country by any means at any location. Migration or immigration was the primary source of Florida's population growth in 2015 with 86% of the growth due to net migration and immigration. A significant of immigrants to Collier County place strain on the local economy and infrastructure. • Warning Time: 3 — 6 to 12 hours • Duration: 4 — More than 1 week LOCATION Collier County and its jurisdictions, including the coastal communities of Naples, Marco Island, and Everglades City, are vulnerable to mass migration incidents, with the most likely points of entry along the coastline. Everglades City, located within Big Cypress National Park and home to the 10,000 Islands, presents unique challenges due to its remote and extensive coastal geography. The county's proximity to islands such as Cuba, Puerto Rico, the Dominican Republic, and Haiti, as well as the nearby Gulf Coast of Mexico, increases the likelihood of large-scale maritime migration during periods of political instability, economic crises, or natural disasters in these regions. Additionally, domestic mass migration may occur as large groups evacuate to Collier County due to hazards like hurricanes or wildfires in other parts of Florida or neighboring states. A sudden influx of people could place significant strain on local resources, including housing, healthcare, transportation, and emergency services, underscoring the need for comprehensive preparedness and response strategies. • Spatial Extent: 3 — Moderate Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 246 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT EXTENT A mass migration events could impact all of Collier County, though migrants are more likely to settle in areas where established communities of their same origin already exist. These areas often offer familiar cultural and social support networks, making it easier for newcomers to integrate and access resources. For instance, neighborhoods with significant populations of Latin American or Caribbean origin may see a larger influx due to shared language, culture, and existing familial or social ties. This clustering specific healthcare, and community-based organizations, which cater to the unique needs of these groups. Additionally, the concentration of new arrivals in these in these areas could create challenges, such as overcrowding, higher competition for housing and employment, and greater pressure on local infrastructure and public services. The broader effects, however, would still reverberate throughout the entire county as increased population density and changing demographics influence from public policy and resource allocation to economic and social dynamics. • Impact: 3 — Critical HISTORICAL OCCURRENCES There have been several migration waves over the years in Collier County. In the 1980's- 1990's there was an increase in migrants from Hatiti and Cuba. The increase in population contributed to the planning areas demographic changes. Hurricane Andrew in 1992 also caused mass displacement throughout the county. People moved from surrounding areas to seek new homes and job opportunities more inland. These immigration events can result in an increase in migration events over the years. As previously mentioned, there have been approximately 775,000 unauthorized immigrants in the State of Florida since 2016. PROBABILITY OF FUTURE OCCURRENCE Mass migration events are inherently challenging to predict, primarily because they often arise suddenly due to unforeseen circumstances. While it is difficult to forecast specific incidents, Collier County's coastal location suggests a higher probability of experiencing such events in the future. The region's proximity to the Caribbean and Latin American, areas prone to political instability, economic hardship, and natural disasters, makes it particularly vulnerable. Economic crisis in countries like Cuba, Haiti, or Mexico could serve as early warning signs for potential mass migration. Historically, these nations have contributed significantly to the immigration population in Collier County. The existing communities from these regions may act as pull factors, making Collier County an attractive destination for future migrants seeking safety, stability, or reunification with family members. Additionally, environmental factors such as hurricanes, rising sea levels, and other climate-related events could also prompt sudden and large-scale migrants to this part of Florida. Collier County is likely to continue to be a significant destination for those displaces by future crises, whether political, economic, or environmental. • Probability: 2— Possible Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 247 16F SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT CLIMATE CHANGE Climate change has the possibility to influence mass migration, primarily through indirect effects such as intensification of severe storms, rising sea levels, prolonged drought, and an increase in natural disasters like earthquakes. These environmental changes could render certain regions uninhabitable, forcing people to leave their homes in search of safer, more sustainable environments. VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT PEOPLE A mass migration event can lead to significant risks, including potential loss of life and injury for those involved. There are populations that are more vulnerable to a mass migration incident, such as children and the elderly. Undocumented individuals may be hesitant to seek help or evacuate during emergencies due to fear of interacting with law enforcement. If they do evacuate, the sudden increase in population could overwhelm shelters, leading to congestion and overcrowding. • Population Patterns: o Population pressures from surges of displaced individuals seeking shelter or resources. o Expansion of immigrant communities in vulnerable coastal areas. o Increased demands on temporary shelter facilities during mass migration events. o Underserved Populations: Migrant and refugee populations may lack access to stable housing, employment, and emergency support services during large-scale displacements. Additionally, migrants may face challenges in accessing essential resources such as food, education, clean water, employment, translators, and housing. The influx of people can strain public safety resources, potentially depleting them and causing broader issues within the community. Mass migration incidents exacerbate the vulnerabilities of affected populations by exposing them to a wide range of physical, economic, social, and psychological challenges. PROPERTY A mass migration incident can place significant strain on various local resources and services, particularly if authorities intervene and detain a large number of individuals. Detention facilities may quickly become overcrowded, leading to inadequate conditions and increased challenges in managing and processing the influx of cases. • Land Use/Development Trends: o Development of agricultural and low-income housing in rural areas that may serve as initial entry points. o Limited planning for emergency housing within new developments. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 248 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT o Increased need for community infrastructure to accommodate growing populations. Social service services, including healthcare, housing, and welfare programs, may also be overwhelmed as they attempt to meet the needs of incoming immigrants and migrants. Unaccompanied children, who are particularly vulnerable, require specialized care and support, adding further strain to child welfare systems. These services might find themselves under-resources and overburdened, leading to delays in assistance, reduced service quality, and challenges in ensuring the safety and well-being of those in need. ENVIRONMENT The environmental effects of mass migration incident are influenced by the scale of the migration, the location, and the capacity of the area to support an influx of people. For instance, an increase in population can mean an increase demand on water supply. Overpopulated communities place a strain on public utilities and mass transit. Increased pressure on natural resources, pollution, habitat construction, and the strain on protected areas all contribute to the vulnerability of the environment. CONSEQUENCE ANALYSIS Table 2.104 shows the consequences of a mass migration incident. Table 2.104 — Consequence Analysis — Mass Migration Incident Category Consequences Public I Risk of loss of life and injury among migrants, exacerbated by limited access to essential resources such as food, water, and shelter. These shortages can lead to severe health crises among the affected populations. Responders Responders may experience moderate and light impacts. The safety and effectiveness of response efforts depend heavily on the preparedness and protection of responders.

Civil disorder can take the form of small gatherings or large groups blocking or impeding access to a building or disrupting normal activities by generating noise and intimidating people. They can range from a peaceful sit-in to a full-scale riot in which a mob burns or otherwise destroys property and terrorizes individuals. Even in its more passive forms, a group that blocks roadways, sidewalks, or buildings interferes with public order. In the 1990s abortion clinics, for example, were targets for these disruptive-type activities. Throughout this country's history, incidents that disrupted the public peace have figured prominently. The constitutional guarantees allow for ample expression of protest and dissent, and in many cases collide with the preamble's requirement of the government "to ensure domestic tranquility." Typical examples of such conflicting ideology include the protest movements for civil rights in the late 1960s and the Vietnam War protest demonstrations in the early 1970s. The balance between an individual's and group's legitimate expression of dissent and the right of the populace to live in domestic tranquility requires the diligent efforts of everyone to avoid such confrontations in the future. In modern society, laws have evolved that govern the interaction of its members to peacefully resolve conflict. In the United States, a crowd itself is constitutionally protected under "the right of the people to peacefully assemble." However, assemblies that are not peaceable are not protected, and this is generally the dividing line between crowds and mobs. The laws that deal with disruptive conduct are generally grouped into offenses that disturb the public peace. They range from misdemeanors, such as blocking sidewalks or challenging another to fight, to felonies, such as looting and rioting. It is important to note that civil unrest is not synonymous with peaceful assembly or peaceful protest; Americans are guaranteed a right to assemble peacefully under the First Amendment to the Constitution. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 250 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT TYPES OF CROWDS A crowd may be defined as a casual, temporary collection of people without a strong, cohesive relationship. Crowds can be classified into four general categories: Casual Crowd — A casual crowd is merely a group of people who happen to be in the same place at the same time. Examples of this type include shoppers and sightseers. The likelihood of violent conduct is all but nonexistent. Cohesive Crowd — A cohesive crowd consists of members who are involved in some type of unified behavior. Members of this group are involved in some type of common activity, such as worshiping, dancing, or watching a sporting event. Although they may have intense internal discipline (e.g., rooting for a team), they require substantial provocation to arouse to action. Expressive Crowd — An expressive crowd is one held together by a common commitment or purpose. Although they may not be formally organized, they are assembled as an expression of common sentiment or frustration. Members wish to be seen as a formidable influence. One of the best examples of this type is a group assembled to protest something. Aggressive Crowd — An aggressive crowd is made up of individuals who have assembled for a specific purpose. This crowd often has leaders who attempt to arouse the members or motivate them to action. Members are noisy and threatening and will taunt authorities. They tend to be impulsive and highly emotional and require only minimal stimulation to arouse them to violence. Examples of this type of crowd include demonstrations and strikers. TYPES OF MOBS A mob can be defined as a large disorderly crowd or throng. Mobs are usually emotional, loud, tumultuous, violent, and lawless. Like crowds, mobs have different levels of commitment and can be classified into four categories: Aggressive Mob—An aggressive mob is one that attacks, riots, and terrorizes. The object of violence may be a person, property, or both. An aggressive mob is distinguished from an aggressive crowd only by lawless activity. Examples of aggressive mobs are the inmate mobs in prisons and jails, mobs that act out their frustrations after political defeat, or violent mobs at political protests or rallies. Escape Mob—An escape mob is attempting to flee from something such as a fire, bomb, flood, or other catastrophe. Members of escape mobs have lost their capacity to reason and are generally impossible to control. They are characterized by unreasonable terror. Acquisitive Mob—An acquisitive mob is one motivated by a desire to acquire something. Riots caused by other factors often turn into looting sprees. This mob exploits a lack of control by authorities in safeguarding property. Examples of acquisitive mobs would include the looting in South Central Los Angeles in 1992, or food riots in other countries. Expressive Mob—An expressive mob is one that expresses fervor or revelry following some sporting event, religious activity, or celebration. Members experience a release of pent-up emotions in highly charged situations. Examples of this type of mob include the Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 251 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT June 1994 riots in Canada following the Stanley Cup professional hockey championship, European soccer riots, and those occurring after other sporting events in many countries, including the United States. Although members of mobs have differing levels of commitment, as a group they are far more committed than members of a crowd. As such, a "mob mentality" sets in, which creates a cohesiveness and sense of purpose that is lacking in crowds. Thus, any strategy that causes individual members to contemplate their personal actions will tend to be more effective than treating an entire mob as a single entity. • Warning Time: 4 — Less than six hours • Duration: 3 — Less than one week LOCATION Collier County and its jurisdictions are vulnerable to civil disorder, which can arise from various causes and may occur spontaneously or as a result of escalating tensions. While civil disorder can erupt anywhere, it is more likely in areas with large population gatherings, such as Naples, Marco Island, and Everglades City. Locations that attract political or public rallies, such as government buildings, parks, and public spaces, are potential focal points for disturbances. Additionally, arenas, stadiums, public festivals, and sporting events present opportunities for civil unrest due to high attendance and heightened emotions. Civil disorder may also occur near locations where a "trigger event" has taken place, further emphasizing the need for preparedness throughout all jurisdictions within Collier County. • Spatial Extent: 2 — Small EXTENT The ultimate extent of any civil disorder incident will depend on the magnitude of that event and its location. The more widespread an incident is, the greater the likelihood of excessive injury, loss of life and property damage; additional factors, such as the ability of law enforcement to contain the event, are also critical in minimizing damages. • Impact: 2— Limited HISTORICAL OCCURRENCES There are documented events that indicate that Florida and the southern peninsula region are not immune to riots, protests, and social upheaval. Some brief examples of civil unrest near Collier County are provided below. The Miami Riot of 1968 occurred at the Vote Power building in the Liberty City neighborhood in August. A group of black organizations called for this rally in order to make known the unfair systems at play throughout the nation. This date overlapped with the Republican National Convention in Miami Beach. Things got aggressive once a white reporter was forcibly kicked out and the police showed up. One passer-by had his car stoned and multiple bottles thrown at him for having a republican political sticker on his car. He fled his car which was then overturned and set on fire. The following day, the police responded to what they thought was sniper fire as the rioters were terrorizing Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 252 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT shops. The police killed three residents and left a bullet wound in a fourth only to find no weapons close by. The riot ended when the Florida National Guard responded, imposed a curfew, and heavy rains kept people inside. The 1980 Miami riots were race riots that began on May 18, 1980. The event that triggered the riots was the clearing of four Dade County Public Safety Department officers. They had previously been tried for the manslaughter of Arthur McDuffie, a black salesman who passed away from wounds suffered during a high-speed chase in which these four white officers were involved. The riot broke out in the Liberty City and Overtown neighborhoods. After filing a civil lawsuit against County officials, McDuffie's family received a settlement of$1.1 million from Dade County. These were the deadliest riots between the 1960s and the 1992 Los Angeles riots. The 1990 Wynwood riot began in the Wynwood neighborhood in Miami after six officers had been acquitted for the death of Leonardo Mercado. Mercado was a Puerto Rican and suspected drug dealer. Puerto Ricans were unhappy during this time since they felt they had no representation in any positions of authority. Six undercover officers in the Street Narcotics Unit of the Miami Police Department met with Mercado outside of his apartment in 1988. After forcing him back inside, they beat him to death. They were charged with conspiracy and three counts of civil rights violations. After their acquittal, a mob became violent for about three hours causing $3 million in property damage before order was restored by 200 patrolmen. The 1996 St. Petersburg riots began after the death of an unarmed black, male teenage driver which occurred during a police traffic stop. There were two other people at the scene, one was the shooting policeman's partner, and the other was the passenger in the teenage male's car. Additionally, there were multiple witnesses, and everyone had a slightly different story of what happened. Immediately following the shooting, a crowd gathered and became frustrated when police didn't release any information. The crowd began throwing rocks and bottles at police officers. The riot continued through other areas of the city resulting in 20 people arrested, 28 arson fires, 11 injured, and multiple stores were looted. After the two original responding police officers were cleared of any charges a few weeks later, more rioting occurred. Since 2010, civil unrest has again trended toward race relations as a cause. From controversial shootings of African American men by white police officers to the resulting Black Lives Matter movement, these trends may continue as the country finds ways to improve race relations. Florida has experienced specific incidents of racial unrest and violence as part of this trend and may continue to see these types of incidents in the future. Specific incidents occurring in a single jurisdiction can cause civil unrest nationally; the Michael Brown shooting incident in Ferguson, MO is an example of this. On November 25, 2014, CNN reported that thousands of people in more than 170 U.S. cities rallied to protest the grand jury decision not to indict the officer involved. Another recent trend is the destruction, defacement, and/or removal of statues and other memorials dedicated to the Confederacy during the Civil War. Areas near Collier County have experienced incidents of this nature, including the vandalization and subsequent Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 253 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT removal of a confederate monument in West Palm Beach in August 2017, the removal and renaming of streets in Hollywood in April 2018, and the removal of the Robert E. Lee's bust in Fort Meyers in March 2019. As the country continues to debate whether monuments to the Confederacy are appropriate, these types of incidents may continue to occur. PROBABILITY OF FUTURE OCCURRENCE In their article on "Understanding Riots" published in the Cato Journal (Vol. 14, No 1), David D. Haddock and Daniel D. Polsby note that a large crowd itself is not an incipient riot merely because it assembles a great many people. Haddock and Polsby explain that "starting signals" must occur for civil disorder to erupt; these starting signals include certain kinds of high-profile events. With any conventional triggering event, such as news of an assassination or unpopular jury verdict, crowds form spontaneously in various places as word of the incident spreads, without any one person having to recruit them. But since not every crowd threatens to evolve into a riot, the authors reason that a significant number of people must expect and desire that the crowd will become riotous. In addition, "someone has to serve as a catalyst" The authors conclude that once someone has taken a risk to get things started, the rioting will begin and spread until civil authorities muster enough force to make rioters believe they face a realistic prospect of arrest. Collier County will likely experience future episodes of marches, protests, demonstrations, and gatherings that could lead to some type of disruptive civil disorder. However, based on the general history of civil disturbance and the various human factors noted above, the probability that such incidents will develop into full-scale, widespread riots is considered low. Should the planning area experience future incidents of disruptive civil disorder or rioting, the severity of a given event could range from low to high, depending on many factors. Civil disturbances may result in arrests, damage to property (police vehicles with broken windows, etc.), injuries, fatalities and manpower/overtime costs for police, fire, and other response services. • Probability: 2— Possible CLIMATE CHANGE As a human-caused hazard, any changes in climate would not have a direct impact on civil disorder. Far more relevant, though, could be the implications of future climate change as a cause for civil disorder. Climate change impact forecasts include increasingly extreme weather patterns that exacerbate issues of drought, flooding, severe weather and other weather hazards globally that could affect whole ecosystems. Incidents of civil disobedience could be a secondary result related to societal unrest because of other climate-impacted hazards. VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT As discussed above, the impacts from civil disorder vary greatly depending on the nature, severity, and success of the attack. Collier County,FL WSp Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 254 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT When rioting does break out, it generally proves extremely difficult for first-responder law enforcement authorities to quell the mob promptly. The rules of constitutional law set stringent limits on how police officers can behave toward the people they try to arrest. Restraint also plays a crucial part in avoiding any action that "fans the flames." Initial police presence is often undermined because forces may be staffed below the peak loads needed to bring things back under control. As a result, the riot may continue until enough state police or National Guard units arrive to bolster the arrest process and subsequently restore order. In many cases, damage to life and property may already be extensive. PEOPLE Injuries and fatalities can occur during civil unrest. • Population Patterns: o Increased population density in urban areas, particularly around government buildings and public spaces. o Vulnerable populations, such as older adults and those with mobility challenges, may face difficulties during civil unrest. o Growing seasonal and tourism population adding to potential crowd sizes in public events and demonstrations. o Underserved Populations: Residents in low-income or minority communities may have less trust in authorities, leading to reduced participation in safety measures during civil disturbances. PROPERTY Should a large gathering of people turn violent, damage to property and infrastructure can result, as well as looting of property. • Land Use/Development Trends: o Expansion of large venues, civic centers, and event spaces, increasing the risk of crowd-related incidents. o Development of mixed-use urban centers attracting large gatherings in small areas. o Increased residential housing near commercial zones and public spaces, exposing more residents to potential disruptions. ENVIRONMENT Environmental impacts could occur if the civil unrest occurs in an outdoor or environmentally sensitive area. These impacts would be tied to the parameters of the incident.

Cyber-attacks are commonly defined as "deliberate attacks on information technology systems in an attempt to gain illegal access to a computer, or Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 256 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT purposely cause damage." Cyber-attacks use malicious code to alter computer operations or data. The vulnerability of computer systems to attacks is a growing concern as people and institutions become more dependent upon networked technologies. The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) reports that "cyber intrusions are becoming more commonplace, more dangerous, and more sophisticated," with implications for private- and public-sector networks. There are many types of cyber-attacks. Among the most common is a direct denial of service, or DDoS attack. This is when a server or website will be queried or pinged rapidly with information requests, overloading the system and causing it to crash. Malware, or malicious software, can cause numerous problems once on a computer or network, from taking control of users' machines to discreetly sending out confidential information. Ransomware is a specific type of malware that blocks access to digital files and demands a payment to release them. Hospitals, school districts, state and local governments, law enforcement agencies, businesses, and even individuals can be targeted by ransomware. Cyber spying or espionage is the act of illicitly obtaining intellectual property, government secrets, or other confidential digital information, and often is associated with attacks carried out by professional agents working on behalf of a foreign government or corporation. According to cybersecurity firm Symantec, in 2016 "...the world of cyber espionage experienced a notable shift towards more overt activity, designed to destabilize and disrupt targeted organizations and countries." Major data breaches -when hackers gain access to large amounts of personal, sensitive, or confidential information - have become increasingly common. The Symantec report says more than seven billion identities have been exposed in data breaches over the last eight years. In addition to networked systems, data breaches can occur due to the mishandling of external drives, as has been the case with losses of some state employee data. Cybercrime can refer to any of the above incidents when motivated primarily by financial gain or other criminal intent. The most severe type of attack is cyber terrorism, which aims to disrupt or damage systems in order to cause fear, injury, and loss to advance a political agenda. • Warning Time: 4 — Less than six hours • Duration: 3 — Less than one week LOCATION Collier County and its jurisdictions are highly interconnected and reliant on digital systems, making them vulnerable to cyber disruption events. These incidents can occur at any location where computing devices are used, affecting a single site or multiple areas across the county. Cyber disruptions can have widespread impacts, extending beyond the targeted system and affecting residents, businesses, and institutions throughout the region. Even disruptions originating outside Collier County can have significant consequences locally. A cyber-attack could potentially impact critical infrastructure, such Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 257 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT as public utilities, emergency services, healthcare systems, and financial institutions, disrupting essential services across the county and its municipal jurisdictions. As such, Collier County and its jurisdictions must remain vigilant and prepared for potential cyber threats. • Spatial Extent: 4 — Large EXTENT The extent or magnitude/severity of a cyber disruption event is variable depending on the nature of the event. A disruption affecting a small, isolated system could impact only a few functions/processes. Disruptions of large, integrated systems and especially systems related to the functionality of critical facilities could impact many functions/processes, as well as many individuals that rely on those systems. There is no universally accepted scale to quantify the severity of cyber-attacks. The strength of a DDoS attack is sometimes explained in terms of a data transmission rate. One of the largest DDoS disruptions ever, which brought down some of the internet's most popular sites on October 21, 2016, peaked at 1.2 terabytes per second. Data breaches are often described in terms of the number of records or identities exposed. • Impact: 3— Critical HISTORICAL OCCURRENCES The Privacy Rights Clearinghouse, a nonprofit organization based in San Diego, maintains an estimated timeline of 17,552 unique data breaches, of which at least 7,130 were acts of computer hacking, in the United States from 2005-2023. The database lists 700 total data breaches, including 330 hacking events in Florida, totaling over 19.6 million records breached since 2005. One attack was recorded in Naples, and others almost certainly included information on individuals who live in the region. Similarly, some residents in the region were likely affected by national and international data breaches. Media reports indicate an uptick in cyber-attacks across the state. In 2018, Collier County was scammed out of $184,000 according to local news reports. Money from County offices was wire transferred to a fraudulent contractor unknowingly. The fraud originated abroad. Money was recovered from insurance carriers and the correct contractor was paid in full. PROBABILITY OF FUTURE OCCURRENCE Cyber-attacks occur daily, but most have negligible impacts at the local or regional level. The possibility of a larger disruption affecting systems within the area is a constant threat, but it is difficult to quantify the exact probability due to such highly variable factors as the type of attack and intent of the attacker. Minor attacks against business and government systems have become a commonplace occurrence but are usually stopped with minimal impact. Similarly, data breaches impacting the information of residents of the Collier County area are almost certain to happen in coming years. Major attacks or breaches specifically targeting systems in the area are less likely but cannot be ruled out. • Probability: 2— Possible Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 258 1 6 F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT CLIMATE CHANGE Climate change is not expected to affect critical infrastructure disruption. VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT As discussed above, the impacts from a cyber-attack vary greatly depending on the nature, severity, and success of the attack. PEOPLE Cyber-attacks can have a significant cumulative economic impact. According to the Internet Crime Complaint Center run by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the U.S. experienced a loss of$27.6 billion between the years 2018 to 2022. A major cyber-attack has the potential to undermine public confidence and build doubt in their government's ability to protect them from harm. • Population Patterns: o Growing reliance on critical infrastructure to support residential and commercial growth. o Vulnerable populations, such as elderly residents and medically dependent individuals, relying on power-dependent medical devices. o Increased density in urban centers, intensifying the impacts of infrastructure failures. o Underserved Populations: Low-income households may be disproportionately affected by prolonged power outages due to limited backup resources and access to alternative shelter. Injuries or fatalities from cyber-attacks would generally only be possible from a major cyber terrorist attack against critical infrastructure. PROPERTY Short of a major cyber terrorist attack against critical infrastructure, property damage from cyber-attacks is typically limited to computer systems. • Land Use/Development Trends: o Expansion of residential and commercial developments, increasing the demand on energy and water systems. o Development of new commercial hubs that require cybersecurity and grid resilience enhancements. o Limited redundancy in power and water infrastructure in new housing areas. ENVIRONMENT Short of a major cyber terrorist attack against critical infrastructure, property damage from cyber-attacks is typically limited to computer systems. A major cyber terrorism attack could potentially impact the environment by triggering a release of a hazardous materials, Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 259 6F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT or by causing an accident involving hazardous materials by disrupting traffic-control devices.

Important visitors can include dignitaries among others. Many issues can arise because of these events including civil disturbance, terrorism, and criminal activity. The U.S. Department of Homeland Security deem events that could be potential targets for terrorism or other criminal activity National Special Security Events (NSSE). These events can include but are not limited to summits of world leaders, meetings of international organizations, presidential nominating conversations, and presidential nominations. These events mostly occur in a specific location for a specific amount of time. In order to determine what qualifies as a special event or an NSSE, there are several factors to consider. Table 2.107 below shows some common factors that would cause an event to be a special or NSSE event. Table 2.107 — Special Event Factors to Consider Factor Description Dignitary Attendance Events attended by U.S. officials or foreign dignitaries may cause federal interest to guarantee the event occurs without incident, or at least that resources are available in the case that an incident occurs. Size More attendees and participants in an event cause more security measures to be needed. Larger events typically attract more attention of terrorists or criminals and may see weapons of mass destruction. Significance An event that has historical, political, cultural, or symbolic significance may attract criminal or terrorist activity. Duration If an even lasts several days or weeks, it is unlikely local and state law enforcement alone will be able to control the security of said event. Federal assistance may be required. Availability of State and If state and local jurisdictions don't have the expertise, experience, or Local Resources manpower to ensure protection of those at an event, federal assistance may be required. Number of Jurisdictions Multiple jurisdictions are sometimes required to coordinate law enforcement and public safety agencies. It could be helpful to include an agency to oversee the coordination. Threat Assessments When there is anticipated terrorism or criminal activity.

Mobs or other types of civil disturbance can easily occur at or in response to special events. • Warning Time: 4 — Less than 6 Hours • Duration: 2— Less than 24 Hours LOCATION While special events could take place anywhere, they are most likely to occur at locations that attract large crowds, such as public spaces, entertainment venues, and hotels, golf courses and transportation corridors. Collier County and its jurisdictions host numerous annual events that draw significant attendance and require careful planning to ensure public safety and emergency preparedness. Some of the major recurring events in the county include, but are not limited to: • Naples Winter Wine Festival (January) —A world-renowned charity event that attracts high-profile attendees and large crowds. • Marco Island Seafood and Music Festival (March) — A popular event featuring food, music, and vendors, drawing both residents and tourists. • Everglades Seafood Festival (February) —A major community gathering in Everglades City that attracts thousands of visitors. • Swamp Buggy Races (January & November) —A signature Collier County event that draws large crowds to the Florida Sports Park. • Naples International Film Festival (October) — An event that brings filmmakers and audiences from around the country. • Stone Crab Festival (October) — A celebration of the region's seafood industry, held along Naples' waterfront areas. • Farmers Markets and Art Shows (Seasonal, October— April) — Regular seasonal events that draw significant foot traffic throughout the county. • Sports Tournaments and Marathons (Year-Round) — Including golf tournaments, triathlons, and charity runs that bring participants from various locations. • Fourth of July Fireworks and Parades (July 4th) — Large-scale holiday celebrations that occur across the county. • Naples Christmas Parade and Holiday Events (December) — Annual festivities that attract families and visitors to downtown Naples and other locations. Collier County and its jurisdictions are susceptible to incidents that may occur during these and other special events. Large gatherings present potential challenges related to public safety, crowd control, traffic management, and emergency response. As such, it is essential for Collier County and all participating jurisdictions to implement Collier County,FL WSp Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 262 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT comprehensive preparedness and response strategies to mitigate potential risks associated with these events. • Spatial Extent: 1 — Negligible EXTENT Special events tend to be in a small area which will be most impacted. In some cases, road closures may be expected for high volume traffic purposes. • Impact: 1 — Minor HISTORICAL OCCURRENCES As detailed in the Civil Disturbance hazard in Section 2.5.19, the Miami Riot of 1968 occurred because of the Republican National Convention, a special event being held in Miami. While not in Collier County, it was nearby in Miami-Dade County. PROBABILITY OF FUTURE OCCURRENCE Collier County's beaches and proximity to Big Cypress National Preserve and Everglades National Park make it a popular destination for several special events. Therefore, it is likely that more special events will occur in the county in the future. • Probability: 3— Likely CLIMATE CHANGE Climate change is not expected to impact special event hazards. However, there could be more climate change summits or perhaps politically charged protests in the future which would require special security and preparation. VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT PEOPLE Special events by nature will congregate a group of people together, however large. Having a group of people in the same space can cause logistical problems. This leads to the possibility of injury or death, though death is unlikely unless there is a concurrent hazard such as terrorism, civil disturbance, or a natural disaster. • Population Patterns: o Population surges during major sporting events, festivals, and dignitary visits. o Temporary increases in transient populations (e.g., tourists, vendors) concentrated in small areas. o Vulnerable populations, such as children and elderly attendees, may require special planning during mass gatherings. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 263 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT O Underserved Populations: Low-income residents in nearby neighborhoods may experience disruptions to public services and increased traffic congestion during large events. PROPERTY Any damages to property are likely to be localized to the event space. Anytime people gather in the same space, there is a possibility of property damage. • Land Use/Development Trends: o Development of new sports complexes, parks, and civic centers, increasing the frequency of large events. o Growth of downtown areas with mixed-use developments that host multiple public events. O Limited parking and emergency access routes in newly developed event venues. ENVIRONMENT Any damages to the environment are likely to be localized around an event. There is a low possibility of environmental damage without a simultaneous natural or human caused disaster. CONSEQUENCE ANALYSIS Table 2.108 shows the consequences for special events. Table 2.108 — Consequence Analysis — Special Events Category Consequences Public Localized impact expected to be moderate for affected areas and moderate to light for other less affected areas without a concurrent hazard or disaster. Responders Adverse impact expected to be moderate for unprotected personnel and moderate to light for trained, equipped, and protected personnel. Continuity of Operations Localized disruption of roads caused by incidents may postpone delivery (including Continued of some services. Delivery of Services) Property, Facilities and Localized impact to facilities and infrastructure in the areas of the incident. Infrastructure Roads most adversely affected. Environment Environmental damage to trees, bushes, beaches, etc. possible but unlikely. Economic Condition of Local economy and finances may be adversely affected, depending on the Jurisdiction damage. Public Confidence in the Ability to respond and recover may be questioned and challenged if Jurisdiction's Governance planning, response, and recovery not timely and effective.

The name can be misleading since the blooms can be red, brown, blue, green, or yellow. Algae colonies themselves are not harmful until they are in excess. When they're out of control, they produce toxins that can harm humans, fish, shellfish, marine mammals, and birds. Algae have a seasonal growth cycle causing them to grow more in the spring and summer months, and they can often disappear in the winter months. Temperature, day length, and rainfall also affect their growth. The red tide organism, which is most commonly causing issues in Florida, Karenia brevis, is monitored by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC). They take daily samples in multiple locations to determine the level of red tide at any time. The FWC measures the number of Karenia brevis cells in sample locations to determine the level of red tide present in each area. Table 2.109 below shows the measurement categories and possible effects of K. brevis. Table 2.109 — Measurement and Effects of Karenia Brevis Description K. brevis abundance Possible effects Not Background levels of present- No effects anticipated background 1,000 cells or less Greater than 1,000 to Possible respiratory irritation Very low 10,000 cells per liter Shellfish harvesting closures when cell abundance equals or exceeds 5,000 cells per liter Low Greater than 10,000 to Respiratory irritation 100,000 cells per liter Shellfish harvesting closures Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 265 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT Description K. brevis abundance Possible effects Possible fish kills Probable detection of chlorophyll by satellites at upper range of cell abundance Respiratory irritation Medium Greater than 100,000 to Shellfish harvesting closures 1,000,000 cells per liter Probable fish kills Detection of surface chlorophyll by satellites Respiratory irritation Greater than 1,000,000 Shellfish harvesting closures cells per liter Probable fish kills Detection of surface chlorophyll by satellites Water discoloration Source: Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission The measurement system above is the legend key for Figure 2.55 and Figure 2.56 which show Florida K. brevis concentrations in October 2021, November 2022, and December 2023 respectively.

Source: Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission LOCATION As of September 2024, scientists and researchers have reported little to no red tide presence around Florida. However, since Karenia brevis, the organism responsible for red tide, occurs naturally in the Gulf of Mexico, it is unlikely that red tide is permanently eliminated. Collier County and its jurisdictions remain vulnerable to red tide and other harmful algal blooms, particularly in coastal areas such as Naples, Marco Island, and Everglades City. These blooms can occur along the county's beaches, in estuaries, and within inland waterways connected to the Gulf, such as the Ten Thousand Islands and the estuarine systems of Rookery Bay and the Cocohatchee River. The potential impacts of red tide include fish kills, respiratory irritation, and economic effects on tourism and fisheries, making ongoing monitoring and mitigation efforts crucial for the region. Figure 2.57 shows where red tide was found close to Collier County between 2022 and 2023.

The highest concentration was located just north of the coastline of Collier County and was rated as "very low," between 1,000 and 10,000 cells. EXTENT Karenia brevis is native to the Gulf of Mexico and is therefore found in the Gulf, often close to shorelines. Most of the red tide found in or off the coast of Florida occur on the western coast. However, red tide is also found on the eastern coast. This is due to the Florida Current which carries organisms from the Gulf of Mexico around the southern edge of Florida to the Atlantic Ocean. The Florida Current then joins with the Antilles Current to become the Gulf Stream. Red tide can get as large as 10,000 square miles anywhere throughout the water column. This makes it very impractical to irradiate. Additionally, any current method of removing the toxins from the blooms or water could cause irreversible damage to ecosystems. • Impact: 2 — Limited • Spatial Extent: 3 — Moderate HISTORICAL OCCURRENCES The first accounts of red tide in Florida came from the Spanish explorers thousands of years ago and the first sufficiently documented account came from 1844. It has only become well-known and studied in the past 60 years. A grant program called the Red Tide Control and Mitigation Program began in 2007 with the goal of finding new ways to control or mitigate the effects of red tide. It funded 12 projects that included outreach and public information. September 2022, just before the arrival of Hurricane Ian. After a period of the state reporting no observations of K. brevis, Florida Fish and Wildlife reported concentrations had been found in a sample taken 15 miles offshore of Collier County. Researchers believed that this bloom was enhanced due to runoff left over by Hurricane Ian. Even though blooms have only been monitored since 1954, few blooms have lasted longer than the one that occurred between 2017-2019 as it killed millions of pounds of marine life and shut down tourism, real estate, and recreational fishing in much of Lee, Collier, and Charlotte Counties. January 23, 2025, red tide is present offshore of Collier County, with respiratory irritation reported in these areas. However, recent beach samples from locations such as Barefoot Beach, Vanderbilt Beach, Seagate Beach, Naples Pier, and South Marco Beach have shown no presence of red tide. Despite this, respiratory irritation may still occur at all Collier County beaches, especially during onshore winds. Individuals with chronic respiratory conditions should exercise caution when visiting these areas. The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) has detected bloom concentrations of the red tide organism Karenia brevis in samples from nearby counties, including Manatee, Sarasota, Charlotte, and Lee. Satellite imagery indicates chlorophyll patches offshore of Lee, Collier, and Monroe counties, suggesting the presence of red tide in these areas. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 269 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT PROBABILITY OF FUTURE OCCURRENCE Considering that blooms and varying concentrations of K. brevis are occurring annually and for extended periods of time, it is safe to say that red tides will likely occur in the future. Scientists and researchers are working on ways to control and mitigate it. It is expected that there will be another great bloom in the future. • Probability: 3— Likely CLIMATE CHANGE Climate change is expected to severely affect our ability to control blooms. Algal blooms thrive in higher air and ocean temperatures. In combination with fertilizer runoff which is nitrogen-rich, red tide has gotten harder to control even in recent years. It could become impossible to control in the future. K. brevis tends to thrive in water temperatures of 83 degrees Fahrenheit but can grow faster in hotter temperatures if there is more carbon dioxide. Atmospheric carbon dioxide has been on the rise for a long time and that trend will continue if society continues to burn fossil fuel. VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT PEOPLE K. brevis puts off brevotoxins which can cause respiratory issues and irritation of the throat or skin in humans. Exposure can also occur through contamination of food or water supply. Seafood from a contaminated area may be unsafe to eat. • Population Patterns: o Growing coastal population and tourists exposed to harmful airborne toxins during red tide events. o Increased risk to vulnerable populations, such as individuals with asthma and other respiratory conditions. o Higher population concentrations at popular beaches and waterfronts during tourist seasons. o Underserved Populations: Coastal workers, such as fishers and hospitality staff, may face economic impacts and health challenges due to prolonged red tide events. PROPERTY Toxins could seep into land close to the ocean or other affected areas. Damages to property are highly unlikely. • Land Use/Development Trends: o Expansion of residential and commercial developments near waterways, increasing nutrient runoff into the ocean. Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 270 16F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT o Growth in agricultural activities contributing to nutrient loading in coastal waters. o Increased development of waterfront dining, marinas, and tourism hubs that suffer economic losses during bloom events. ENVIRONMENT The environment is likely to be affected because red tide is so toxic. There could be loss of life including birds, fish, shellfish, and aquatic animals. Additionally, water quality could be negatively affected. CONSEQUENCE ANALYSIS Table 2.110 summarizes the potential consequences of red tide. Table 2.110 — Consequence Analysis — Red Tide / Algae Bloom Category Consequences Public Exposure to brevetoxins can cause respiratory issues and irritation. Those who encounter water with high K. brevis concentrations may have skin and eye irritation or rashes. Those living and working closest to sites with K. brevis face the greatest risk of exposure. Exposure may also occur through contamination of food or water supplies. Responders Responders face similar risks as the general public but a heightened potential for exposure to toxins. Continuity of Operations (including A red tide incident may cause temporary localized impacts but is unlikely to Continued Delivery of affect continuity of operations. Services) Property, Facilities Damages to property are highly unlikely other than for ocean-side beaches. and Infrastructure Impacts would be highly localized. Environment Possible ecological impacts include loss of wild and aquatic life, loss of habitat, and degradation of water quality. Economic Condition of Annual tourist, sales, health, and clean-up costs. Red tides are estimated to the Jurisdiction cost$20 million in tourist-related losses in Florida each year. Clean-up costs are around $163,000 annually. Public Confidence in the Jurisdiction's A red tide incident may affect public confidence if the environmental or health Governance impacts are enduring. HAZARD SUMMARY BY JURISDICTION The following table summarizes red tide algae bloom hazard risk by jurisdiction. Risk is not expected to change substantially between jurisdictions. Jurisdictions with shoreline at risk were assigned a probability of 3 (likely), an impact of 2 (limited), and a spatial extent of 2 (small). Jurisdictions with little to no shoreline at risk were assigned a probability score of 1 (unlikely), an impact of 1 (minor), and a spatial extent of 1 (negligible). Warning time and duration are inherent to the hazard and remain constant across jurisdictions.

Collier County,FL WSP Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment September 2024 Page 273 1 6F 4 SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT The results from the PRI have been classified into three categories based on the assigned risk value which are summarized in Table 2.112: • High Risk — Widespread potential impact. This ranking carries a high threat to the general population and/or built environment. The potential for damage is widespread. • Medium Risk — Moderate potential impact. This ranking carries a moderate threat level to the general population and/or built environment. Here the potential damage is more isolated and less costly than a more widespread disaster. • Low Risk — Minimal potential impact. The occurrence and potential cost of damage to life and property is minimal. This is not a priority hazard. Table 2.112 — Summary of Hazard Risk Classification 'IV - _ .,.. .

These goals, adopted as the official Local Mitigation Strategy (LMS) goals, are reviewed annually and may be modified based on a quorum vote of LMSWG members. Note: Refer to Annex I of this LMS for the Collier County Floodplain Management Plan. Paragraph 7.8 (Setting Goals) provides a detailed list of goals established by the Floodplain Management Planning Committee to specifically address flood hazard reduction in the county. Since the 2015 LMS approval, the primary priorities and goals have remained consistent. However, the LMSWG recently expanded the scope to include cyber threats and sea level rise as emerging areas of concern. While the current goals and objectives have largely stayed the same, they will be updated during the next plan review cycle to reflect these evolving priorities.

Details on the prioritization process are provided in Section 4.1.3.1, explaining the methods used to ensure fair consideration for all participating jurisdictions. 4.1.2 Project and Action Item Listing (Annex E) Annex E contains a list of projects and action items identified by participating jurisdictions within Collier County as necessary for effective hazard mitigation. Any initiatives submitted by a participating jurisdiction are added to the prioritized project/initiative list in Annex E (LMS link). Placement on this list is determined by the score each project receives on the "Mitigation Initiatives Evaluation Score Sheet" found in Annex H. Each jurisdiction or agency submits initiatives designed to address identified hazards specific to their area. Upon submission, each initiative is scored according to criteria established by the LMSWG to best reflect the mitigation needs of Collier County. Scoring includes three key criteria required by FEMA: cost-effectiveness (represented by the benefit-cost ratio), technical feasibility, and environmental soundness. 4.1.3 Initiative Submission and Review Process When submitting initiatives, each jurisdiction or agency is responsible for scoring their project and completing a "simplified benefit-cost analysis (BCA)" before submitting it electronically in MS Word format to the LMSWG via the Collier County Emergency Management Office. The simplified BCA should use realistic estimates of potential losses, rather than relying solely on the total replacement cost of facilities and equipment. Additionally, the submitting entity must present their project to the LMSWG, providing details on the project's impact and supporting the presentation with graphics and/or maps to show the project location. The LMSWG reviews both the initiative and its recommended score, and, following review, the initiative is added to the Prioritized Listing of Mitigation Action Items (Annex E). 4.1.3.1 Special Rules for Prioritizing Hazard Mitigation Grant Program (HMGP) Projects Following each disaster in the State of Florida, FEMA provides hazard mitigation funding through the Hazard Mitigation Grant Program (HMGP). For each HMGP opportunity, the Local Mitigation Strategy Working Group (LMSWG) establishes a project priority list to guide funding decisions. Process 1. Notification and Intent to Apply: After each disaster, the LMSWG Chair notifies all agencies with projects listed in Annex E (Prioritized Listing of Mitigation Action Items) to determine their intent to apply for HMGP funding. Once the "Notification of Funds Availability" (NOFA) is received, the Chair will issue a formal notice to project sponsors 4-1 16F 4 Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy 2025 October 12024 in Annex E, giving them 30 days from the NOFA date to confirm their intent to apply for funding. 2. Project Prioritization by Jurisdictions: Agencies that do not intend to apply for HMGP funding are not required to take further action. Agencies intending to apply must prioritize their projects for submission to FEMA. Once each jurisdiction has established its project priorities, jurisdictions will be listed alphabetically (e.g., A, B, C) according to an LMSWG-approved method. In this order, each jurisdiction's top-priority project is added sequentially to the State/FEMA priority list: the first project from "A" is prioritized first, the first project from "B" is second, and so forth. This sequence continues until all intended projects are prioritized. 3. Late Submissions: Project score sheets received after the official project prioritizing date will be added to the end of the prioritized list in the order they are received by the Emergency Management Office. Note: While not all HMGP projects may be funded, applications must be submitted by the NOFA closing date to be considered for funding as it becomes available. 4. Documentation of Local Share Commitment: Applicants must provide the LMSWG Chair with documentation of the commitment to local share funding, approved by their governing body. The Chair will issue a letter to each applicant to include with their grant application package, indicating that the project aligns with the county's mitigation strategy and showing its position on the priority list. 4.1.4 Preliminary Benefit-Cost Analysis (BCA) Requirement For each project submitted to the Local Mitigation Strategy Working Group (LMSWG), jurisdictions must conduct a preliminary Benefit-Cost Analysis (BCA). A more detailed BCA, following FEMA guidelines, will be required if the project proceeds to a federal grant application. Note: A BCA is mandatory for all mitigation projects. However, a BCA is not required for planning activities and some acquisition projects. The Florida Division of Emergency Management (FDEM) Mitigation staff will perform the official FEMA BCA for all hazard mitigation projects. Applicants may conduct a preliminary BCA themselves to assess project eligibility and identify necessary documentation for the state's mitigation project officer. Projects with a benefit-cost ratio below 1.0 will not qualify for FEMA hazard mitigation grants. Applicants and sub-applicants are strongly encouraged to use FEMA's BCA software, available free from FEMA by contacting the BCA hotline at 1-866-222-3580. While applicants may use alternative programs or methods to calculate the benefit-cost ratio, any methodology must be consistent with FEMA's benefit-cost model and receive FEMA's prior approval. Additional information on FEMA's BCA program and guidelines is available at https://www.fema.qov/benefit-cost-analysis. 4.1.5 RULE FOR INITIATIVES THAT CAN NOT BE SCORED, BUT ACHIEVES A GOAL OF THE LMS Some initiatives, by their nature, cannot be scored or quantified effectively—for example, projects like road elevation to improve evacuation routes or conducting community hurricane preparedness seminars. While these initiatives may not lend themselves to a measurable score, they still contribute to the goals of the Local Mitigation Strategy (LMS). 4-2 16F 4 Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy 2025 _ October I,2024 In such cases, if applicants wish to include these initiatives on the priority listing, they will be placed at the end of the list, in the order received and approved. If a project that was initially unscored later receives a full score based on the established criteria, its position on the priority chart may be adjusted accordingly.

This can be done by bringing the project to a scheduled LMSWG meeting or by submitting it to the Collier County Emergency Management Division, which will add it to an upcoming LMS meeting agenda. Each submission should include: • A project summary • Estimated costs • A benefit-cost analysis • Identified matching funds (if available) • Potential funding sources (See Annex D for potential funding sources) • A completed project scoring sheet (see Annex H) 5.2.2 Project Evaluation The LMSWG will evaluate each project using the scoring sheet in Annex H. This evaluation considers project readiness, funding source compatibility, and special procedures noted in Annex H. Reviews may occur via email, phone, or in person, depending on time and availability. Additional or alternative funding sources may be recommended as needed. 5.2.3 Applicant Responsibilities The project applicant is ultimately responsible for project implementation, management, and progress reporting. 5-1 16F 4 6 Plan Maintenance 16F 4 Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy 2025 October 31,2024 6.0 Monitoring, Evaluating & Updating the Plan and Incorporation of Local Mitigation Strategy into Existing Plans 6.1.1 Monitoring and Maintaining the Local Mitigation Strategy (LMS) The Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy (LMS) is recognized as a "living document," requiring ongoing monitoring, review, and updates to address evolving risks, changing community needs, and emerging mitigation priorities. The Planning Coordinator within the Collier County Emergency Management Division is responsible for tracking the plan's progress and ensuring its continuous evaluation. The LMS Working Group (LMSWG) follows a structured process, in coordination with the Planning Coordinator, to ensure the plan remains current and effective. A. Annual Review Process: 1. Quarterly Review: During the fourth quarter of each year, the LMS Chair formally urges LMSWG members to conduct a comprehensive review and evaluation of the LMS. This process allows the group to assess project priorities, address any changes in risks, and propose necessary updates. 2. State Submission: The annual review concludes with a vote by the LMSWG to approve any updates, which are then submitted to the Florida Division of Emergency Management by the end of January each year to remain in compliance with state requirements. B. Ongoing Plan Evaluation: 1. Continuous Monitoring and Feedback: LMSWG members, voting representatives, and the public are encouraged to actively monitor the plan's effectiveness throughout the year. At any time, members may recommend changes to the LMS, especially in response to shifting risks or new information impacting prioritized projects. 2. Ad Hoc Committees: The LMS Chair may convene ad hoc committees as needed to review specific recommendations and report findings to the LMSWG for consideration and/or a formal vote. C. Identification and Resolution of Gaps and Limitations: As part of the ongoing evaluation of the Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy (LMS), the LMS Working Group (LMSWG) continuously identifies gaps and limitations that may hinder effective hazard mitigation across all jurisdictions and hazard types. These challenges may include: 1. Limited Financial Resources: Insufficient funding for critical infrastructure improvements, mitigation projects, and emergency response capabilities. 2. Staffing Constraints: A shortage of personnel dedicated to mitigation planning, emergency response, and recovery efforts across various agencies and jurisdictions. 3. Aging Infrastructure: Existing infrastructure that may not meet current hazard Section 6 - 1 16F 4 Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy 2025 October 31,2024 mitigation standards, increasing vulnerability to hazards such as flooding, hurricanes, and wildfires. 4. Public Awareness and Outreach: Challenges in effectively communicating hazard risks, mitigation strategies, and available resources to the public and stakeholders. 5. Inter-Jurisdictional Coordination: Ensuring alignment of mitigation efforts across multiple agencies and jurisdictions, addressing regulatory inconsistencies and enhancing collaboration. 6. Technological Advancements: The need for improved data collection, monitoring tools, and predictive modeling to better understand and mitigate risks. 7. Changing Hazard Profiles: Emerging threats such as climate change, sea-level rise, and evolving technological hazards that require adaptive planning and response strategies. D. Strategies to Overcome Gaps: To address these challenges, the LMSWG will implement a series of strategies to enhance the county's mitigation capabilities, including: 1. Securing Additional Funding: Actively pursuing federal and state grants, such as FEMA's Building Resilient Infrastructure and Communities (BRIC) and Hazard Mitigation Grant Program (HMGP), to support mitigation initiatives. 2. Capacity Building: Providing ongoing training and professional development opportunities for staff involved in mitigation planning and emergency management. 3. Infrastructure Modernization: Prioritizing the upgrade and replacement of critical infrastructure to meet current hazard-resistant standards. 4. Enhanced Public Engagement: Expanding outreach efforts through workshops, social media, and partnerships with community organizations to increase awareness and participation. 5. Strengthening Collaboration: Fostering partnerships with regional, state, and federal agencies to improve resource sharing and coordination. 6. Technology Integration: Leveraging advanced tools such as GIS, remote sensing, and predictive analytics to enhance risk assessment and decision-making processes. 7. Adaptive Planning: Regularly reviewing and updating mitigation strategies to address emerging risks and ensure alignment with evolving hazard profiles. The LMSWG will incorporate identified gaps and proposed solutions into the annual review process and quarterly meetings to ensure continuous improvement and adaptation of the LMS to meet Collier County's evolving needs. E. Public Involvement: Section 6 -2 16F 4 Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy 2025 October 31,2024 1. Floodplain Management Meetings: During annual public outreach meetings for the Floodplain Management Plan, the public is reminded of the LMSWG's role, Collier County's Local Mitigation Strategy, and the value of their input and participation in the plan's ongoing development. Document Accessibility: The latest electronic version of the LMS is maintained at the offices of the Floodplain Managers (City of Naples, Marco Island, and Unincorporated Collier County), the Emergency Management Office, and the Office of the Mayor of Everglades City. The document is also accessible online at bit.ly/2nU3zO9 and can be requested in electronic form from the Emergency Management Office at 8075 Lely Cultural Parkway, Naples, FL 34113. 6.1.2 Quarterly LMS Working Group (LMSWG) Meetings The Local Mitigation Strategy Working Group (LMSWG) holds quarterly meetings to continuously monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of the Local Mitigation Strategy (LMS). These meetings ensure that the LMS is regularly updated to reflect current needs and that ongoing projects are on track. Meeting Structure and Project Review: • Presentation of New Initiatives: During each quarterly meeting, participating local governments and agencies present any new mitigation initiatives they have identified. These initiatives are reviewed and evaluated using the Mitigation Initiatives Evaluation Scoring Sheet, ensuring each project aligns with the LMS's goals and meets established prioritization criteria. • Incorporation of Initiatives: Once evaluated, initiatives that meet prioritization standards are incorporated into the LMS. Initiatives that are successfully completed are moved to the "Success" section of the LMS to document their impact, while those that remain incomplete are re-evaluated to determine if they should be retained or adjusted for future consideration. Post-Disaster Integration: After any significant disaster event, the LMSWG reviews lessons learned, or insights gained from post-event interagency hazard mitigation reports. Relevant findings are then incorporated into the LMS to improve future preparedness and mitigation efforts. Ongoing Document Review: In addition to project evaluations, the LMSWG regularly reviews and comments on the effectiveness of related documents that impact mitigation activities, ensuring consistency with the LMS's goals. This includes ongoing evaluation of: • Relevant Ordinances: Review of ordinances under consideration or revision that impact hazard mitigation. • Collier County Growth Management Plan (GMP): Alignment checks between the LMS and the GMP, particularly the following elements: o Conservation & Coastal Management Element o Drainage Sub-Element Section 6 -3 16F 4 Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy 2025 October 31,2024 o Solid Waste Sub-Element o Housing Element o Future Land Use Element, including Urban Future Land Use Designation, Urban Coastal Fringe Sub-District, Density Rating System, Affordable Housing Residential In-Fill, Transfer of Development Rights, and the Bayshore Gateway Triangle Redevelopment Overlay o Golden Gate Area Master Plan Element This process allows the LMSWG to maintain a robust, coordinated approach to hazard mitigation, ensuring that both the LMS and associated documents are current, comprehensive, and effective in addressing Collier County's evolving risk landscape. 6.1.3 Annual Reporting to the Citizen Corps Advisory Committee Beginning in January 2005 and continuing each January, the Chair of the Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy Working Group (LMSWG) reports annually to the Collier County Citizen Corps Advisory Committee. This report provides an assessment of the Local Mitigation Strategy's (LMS) effectiveness in meeting the county's hazard and disaster mitigation needs. Report Contents: • Evaluation of Effectiveness: An overview of the LMS's impact on hazard mitigation efforts, highlighting how the strategy has addressed priority risks and needs within Collier County. • Updates and Revisions: A summary of any revisions made to the LMS, including updates to mitigation initiatives and adjustments in response to changing risks or new data. This section ensures that the Citizen Corps Advisory Committee is informed of any modifications that enhance the LMS's relevance and effectiveness. This annual report promotes transparency, keeps key stakeholders informed, and ensures the LMS is continually refined to serve the county's evolving needs in hazard mitigation. 6.1.4 Public Involvement The Collier County Emergency Management Department is responsible for scheduling all Local Mitigation Strategy Working Group (LMSWG) meetings and providing reasonable advance notice to ensure public participation. Meeting Notifications: • Notice Distribution: Notices for all LMSWG meetings are coordinated through the Collier County Communications and Customer Relations Department. This includes the distribution of information via news releases and posting on the county's website calendar to reach a broad audience. • Special Meetings: Any LMS committee member may call special meetings if significant events alter or necessitate revisions to the Local Mitigation Strategy (LMS). These meetings will also follow the standard process of advance public notification to allow community involvement. Section 6 -4 16F 4 Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy 2025 October 31,2024 Annual Public Outreach: At least once annually, public outreach sessions are conducted in alignment with the Floodplain Management Plan's outreach efforts. These sessions are strategically located throughout the county to maximize accessibility for residents. During these events, the LMSWG Chair will invite attendees to LMSWG meetings, provide an overview of the LMS's purpose and objectives, and encourage public input on hazard mitigation priorities. By maintaining a proactive approach to public involvement, the LMSWG ensures that community members have meaningful opportunities to contribute to Collier County's mitigation planning and are kept informed of the strategy's goals and initiatives. 6.1.5 Updating the Plan The Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy (LMS) undergoes a comprehensive update every five years. This formal review process ensures that the LMS continues to effectively address Collier County's evolving hazard mitigation needs and aligns with the latest FEMA requirements. Collier County's Five-Year Review Timeline: • Completion Deadline: The LMS review process is to be completed six months before the five-year anniversary of the FEMA approval letter. • Sub-Committee Review: The Local Mitigation Strategy Working Group (LMSWG) may appoint a sub-committee to conduct an in-depth audit of the LMS. This sub-committee will assess the current plan's effectiveness and identify any necessary revisions to meet the county's hazard mitigation needs. • Responsible Party: The Planning Coordinator from the Collier County Emergency Management Division is responsible for overseeing the five-year LMS review process, ensuring that all required updates and revisions are completed in accordance with FEMA guidelines and local priorities. Progress Reporting and Member Involvement: • Quarterly Updates: Throughout the five-year review cycle, portions of each quarterly LMSWG meeting are dedicated to progress updates. The LMS Working Group (LMSWG), in coordination with the Planning Coordinator from the Collier County Emergency Management Division, evaluates specific sections of the LMS, assesses their effectiveness, and recommends necessary changes to ensure the plan remains relevant and effective. • Final Reporting: Upon completion of the review process, the LMSWG, with oversight from the Planning Coordinator, presents the updated LMS to the Collier County Citizen Corps Advisory Committee. A summary of the evaluation process and results is also provided to elected officials of participating local governments through their LMSWG representatives for further review and feedback. FEMA-Recommended Review Criteria: In conducting the five-year review, the following six criteria, as recommended by FEMA, are Section 6 -5 16F 4 Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy 2025 October 31,2024 considered: • Alignment with Current Conditions: Ensuring that LMS goals and objectives address present and anticipated conditions. • Risk Analysis: Verifying if changes in the nature or magnitude of risks require updates. • Resource Adequacy: Assessing whether existing resources are sufficient for implementing the LMS. • Implementation Challenges: Identifying any technical, political, legal, or coordination issues affecting the LMS's implementation. • Outcome Verification: Evaluating if outcomes have aligned with initial expectations. • Partner Participation: Reviewing the participation and contributions of agencies and partners as outlined in the LMS. This five-year update cycle ensures that the LMS remains an effective and responsive tool for hazard mitigation in Collier County, adapting to both emerging challenges and community needs.

The approved draft will then be transmitted to the Collier County Citizen Corps Advisory Committee, which will forward it to the State Hazard Mitigation Officer at the Florida Division of Emergency Management. Review and Revisions: • State Review: Once submitted, the draft LMS update will undergo review by the State Hazard Mitigation Officer. Any comments or required revisions from the state will be incorporated into the document by the LMSWG. • Final Submission to County Commissioners: After revisions are complete, the updated LMS will be submitted to the Collier County Board of County Commissioners through the Citizen Corps Advisory Committee. • Board Adoption: The Board of County Commissioners will review the updated LMS and, following any necessary discussions, vote to adopt the revisions recommended by Section 6 -7 16F 4 Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy 2025 October 3l,2024 the LMSWG. Upon adoption, the updated LMS will continue to serve as the county's primary hazard mitigation planning document. 6.1.7 Quarterly Review and Endorsement of the LMS Update In the quarter following the submission of the LMS draft update to the Collier County Board of County Commissioners, the Local Mitigation Strategy Working Group (LMSWG) will convene to review, endorse, and, if necessary, revise the report. Consideration of Feedback: During this meeting, the LMSWG will carefully consider feedback from participating local governments, agencies, and other stakeholders. Any relevant comments or recommendations from these entities will be assessed to ensure that the LMS reflects broad input and addresses community-wide mitigation needs. This collaborative review process ensures that the LMS remains comprehensive and aligns with the needs and insights of all involved jurisdictions and partners. 6.1.8 Amendments Following Major Disasters or Hazard Events In addition to the scheduled five-year update, the Local Mitigation Strategy (LMS) may be amended as needed following a major disaster or significant hazard event. If such an event necessitates substantial revisions, the Local Mitigation Strategy Working Group (LMSWG) may vote to submit the amended LMS to the Collier County Board of County Commissioners and participating City/Town Councils/Commissions for approval. This process ensures that the LMS remains responsive and adaptable, incorporating lessons learned and addressing newly identified risks to enhance resilience across Collier County. 6.2 Incorporation of the Local Mitigation Strategy into Existing Plans To ensure comprehensive implementation of the Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy (LMS), all participating local governments strive to integrate LMS goals and objectives into their respective comprehensive plans and other foundational documents whenever possible. This integration strengthens the county's collective commitment to becoming a more disaster- resilient community. The Collier County Planning Department has facilitated this alignment by inviting LMSWG input during the review of various plans and ordinances over the years. By seizing these opportunities, Collier County has embedded mitigation principles across key policy documents, including the Growth Management (Comprehensive) Plan, the Post-Disaster Ordinance, and the Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan. Attachment 1 to this section provides specific examples of how mitigation activities have been incorporated into these and other guiding documents, ensuring that disaster resilience remains a core component of Collier County's planning framework. 6.2.1 Future Process for Incorporating the Local Mitigation Strategy Each jurisdiction within Collier County has outlined the following processes to ensure the Local Section 6 -8 16F 4 Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy 2025 October 3I,2024 Mitigation Strategy (LMS) is consistently integrated into their respective plans and ordinances: 6.2.1.1 Unincorporated Collier County Coordinators in the Emergency Management Office, the Floodplain Manager, and members of the Comprehensive Planning Section will review the goals and objectives of the LMS in alignment with each plan and ordinance during its scheduled review. The Local Mitigation Strategy Working Group (LMSWG) will specifically assess Goal 12 in the Conservation and Coastal Management Element (CCME) of the Growth Management Plan (GMP), including Policy 12.1.9, which references the Hazard Mitigation Plan. This assessment will help determine if any modifications are necessary to meet current mitigation requirements. Where opportunities arise, the responsible agency will seek LMSWG support in amending the appropriate documents. 6.2.1.2 The City of Naples The Floodplain Coordinator and Planning Department staff are currently working to incorporate the LMS into the City's Comprehensive Plan. The staff will continue to emphasize hazard mitigation across government and community development sectors. The City's Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan (adopted on September 4, 2013, under Resolution 13-13325) and the Flood Damage Prevention Ordinance (adopted on June 13, 2012, under Resolution 12- 13138) have been reviewed to ensure LMS alignment, with further amendments to be made as necessary. 6.2.1.3 The City of Marco Island The Growth Management Director, Chief Building Official, Floodplain Coordinator (CFM), and staff from the Growth Management Planning Division are actively amending the City's Comprehensive Plan to incorporate various LMS initiatives. Staff will emphasize the goals and objectives of the LMS in all governmental areas, particularly in the regulation and development of both floodplain and non-floodplain areas. Attachment 2 provides examples of how the City may integrate the LMS into existing plans. 6.2.1.4 The City of Everglades The Mayor and City Council, representing Everglades City residents, will act as the Everglades City Local Mitigation Strategy Working Group (ECLMSWG) and will be responsible for supporting grant applications to fund mitigation initiatives. The Mayor and Council will assist applicants in submitting a Mitigation Initiative Evaluation Score Sheet to the Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy Working Group (CCLMSWG)for review at regular CCLMSWG meetings. • 6.2.1.4.1 Mitigation Initiative Evaluation Score Sheet Process 0 6.2.1.4.1.1 The Mitigation Initiative Evaluation Score Sheet will outline the project's impact and value to the community, supported by a Benefit-Cost Analysis (BCA) completed by the applicant. 0 6.2.1.4.1.2 The ECLMSWG will assist in preparing a presentation of Everglades City's mitigation initiatives for the CCLMSWG at an upcoming scheduled meeting. Section 6 -9 16F 4 Collier County Local Mitigation Strate.y 2025 October 31,2024 o 6.2.1.4.1.3 An ECLMSWG representative will attend regular or special CCLMSWG meetings to represent the City and report back to the Mayor and the Office of the City Clerk. 0 6.2.1.4.1.4 Goal Achieved: This process provides a structured mechanism for helping City residents and businesses acquire professional assistance and funding to address documented hazards effectively. 6.3 Other Plan References The Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy (LMS) aligns closely with other local and regional plans to create a unified and effective hazard mitigation framework. This integration ensures that hazard mitigation principles are embedded across planning processes, addressing FEMA's criteria for plan coordination and promoting a resilient community. 6.3.1. Incorporation into Comprehensive Plans The LMS references and integrates elements from the Collier County Comprehensive Plan, including its Future Land Use Element, Conservation and Coastal Management Element, and Capital Improvements Element. Specific policies and objectives related to hazard mitigation are reviewed and incorporated to ensure: • Land use decisions are consistent with reducing hazard vulnerability. • Development density within Coastal High Hazard Areas (CHHAs) is controlled, reducing risks to life and property. • Evacuation capabilities and sheltering needs are accounted for in planning decisions. Collier County Comprehensive Plan (Growth Management Plan) (Last Updated April 26, 2022, Ordinance Number 2022-14): • Future Land Use Element: This element guides land use decisions to reduce hazard vulnerability. o Future Land Use Element • Conservation and Coastal Management Element: Focuses on protecting natural resources and managing coastal development. o Conservation and Coastal Management Element • Capital Improvement Element: Outlines infrastructure projects that support hazard mitigation. o Capital Improvement Element 6.3.2. Alignment with Emergency Management Plans The LMS is closely aligned with the Collier County Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan (CEMP). This alignment ensures that: • Hazard mitigation strategies are integrated into preparedness, response, and recovery efforts. • Lessons learned from post-disaster recovery inform future mitigation initiatives. Collier County Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan (CEMP) (Last Updated February 28, 2021, Ordinance Number 2021-77): • Details preparedness, response, and recovery strategies, ensuring alignment with Section 6 -10 16F 4 Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy 2025 October 31,2024 hazard mitigation efforts. o Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan 6.3.3. Integration into Land Development Codes The LMS is incorporated into Collier County's Land Development Code to regulate building practices and promote resilient construction. This includes: • Strengthening building codes to mitigate flood, wind, and wildfire risks. • Limiting development in high-risk areas such as CHHAs and wetland preservation zones. Collier County Land Development Code (Updated on March 26, 2024 Ordinance Number 2024-11; February 27, 2024 Ordinance Number 2024-05; and November 14, 2023 Ordinance Number 2023-63) : • Regulates building practices and land use to promote resilience against hazards. o Land Development Code 6.3.4. Coordination with the Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) Mitigation initiatives identified in the LMS are prioritized in the Collier County Capital Improvement Plan to: • Secure funding and resources for critical infrastructure projects. • Ensure public facilities and utilities are designed to withstand natural hazards. Collier County Capital Improvement Plan (CIP): • Prioritizes funding for infrastructure projects that enhance hazard resilience. o Capital Improvement Plan 6.3.5. Leveraging Regional and State Plans The LMS incorporates data and strategies from regional and state-level plans, such as the Southwest Florida Regional Hurricane Evacuation Study and the Florida Coastal Management Program, to ensure consistency and enhance collaboration. Southwest Florida Regional Hurricane Evacuation Study: • Provides data and strategies for effective evacuation planning. o Southwest Florida Regional Hurricane Evacuation Study Florida Coastal Management Program: • Offers guidelines for managing coastal resources and mitigating related hazards. o Florida Coastal Management Program 6.3.6. Ongoing Evaluation and Updates To maintain relevance and compliance with FEMA's criteria, the LMS incorporates a formal process to review and integrate updates from other plans: • Changes to the Comprehensive Plan, CEMP, or CIP are regularly evaluated for their impact on mitigation efforts. • Relevant stakeholders are engaged to align updates across plans. Benefits of Integration Section 6 -11 16F 4 Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy 2025 October 31,2024 By embedding hazard mitigation strategies into other plans, Collier County ensures: 1. A coordinated approach to reducing risk across all sectors. 2. Efficient use of resources by aligning goals and initiatives. 3. Compliance with FEMA's requirement to integrate hazard mitigation into local planning mechanisms.

FUTURE LAND USE ELEMENT https://www.colliercou ntyfl.gov/home/showpublisheddocu ment/106446/638465425078400000 C.UNDERLYING CONCEPTS Management of Coastal Development Two major coastal development issues in Collier County are the protection of natural resources and the balancing of risk in natural hazard areas. Extensive populated areas in Collier County are vulnerable to periodic salt-water inundation from tropical storms or hurricanes.It is extremely important that an acceptable balance between at-risk population and evacuation capability be achieved.In addition,public and private investment in such vulnerable areas must be carefully considered. This issue is addressed here and in the Conservation and Coastal Management Element through several measures.A Coastal High Hazard Area is identified on the Future Land Use Map essentially as all lands seaward of US 41. This line is based on the close fit to the storm Category 1 SLOSH area(potential for saltwater flooding from 1 storm in 12 years)and evacuation planning areas.Within the Coastal High Hazard Area maximum permissible residential density is limited in recognition of the level of risk,the existing deficiency of evacuation shelter space and existing patterns of density.The Coastal High Hazard Area is also identified in the Conservation and Coastal Management Element and policies are provided therein.Finally,coastal natural hazards are addressed through Land Development Regulations already in effect relating to coastal building standards,per Chapter 161,Florida Statutes,and protection of structures from floods,per County participation in the FEMA Flood Insurance Program. OBJECTIVE 1: Unless otherwise permitted in this Growth Management Plan,new or revised uses of land shall be consistent with designations outlined on the Future Land Use Map.The Future Land Use Map and companion Future Land Use Designations,Districts and Sub-districts shall be binding on all Development Orders effective with the adoption of this Growth Management Plan. Standards and permitted uses for each Future Land Use District and Subdistrict are identified in the Designation Description Section.Through the magnitude,location and configuration of its components,the Future Land Use Map is designed to coordinate land use with the natural environment including topography,soil and other resources;promote a sound economy; coordinate coastal population densities with the Regional Hurricane Evacuation Plan;and discourage unacceptable levels of urban sprawl. FUTURE LAND USE DESIGNATION DESCRIPTION SECTION The following section describes the land use designations shown on the Future Land Use Map. These designations generally indicate the types of land uses for which zoning may be requested.However,these land use designations do not guarantee that a zoning request will be approved.Requests may be denied by the Board of County Commissioners based on criteria in the Land Development Code or on special studies completed for the County. I.URBAN DESIGNATION Urban Designated Areas on the Future Land Use Map include two general portions of Collier County: areas with the greatest residential densities,and areas in close proximity,which have or are projected to receive future urban support facilities and services.It is intended that Urban Designated Areas accommodate the majority of population growth and that new intensive land uses be located within them.Accordingly,the Urban Area will accommodate residential uses and a variety of non-residential uses.The Urban Designated Area,which includes Immokalee and Marco Island,represents less than 10%of Collier County's land area. Section 6 -13 16F 4 Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy 2025 October 31,2024 The boundaries of the Urban Designated Areas have been established based on several factors, including:patterns of existing development;patterns of approved,but unbuilt,development;natural resources;water management; hurricane risk;existing and proposed public facilities;population projections and the land needed to accommodate the projected population growth. *** *** TEXT BREAK *** *** (IV)(XI)(XV)(XXI)3.Urban Coastal Fringe Subdistrict: The purpose of this Subdistrict is to provide transitional densities between the Conservation designated area (primarily located to the south of the Subdistrict)and the remainder of the Urban designated area(primarily located to the north of the Subdistrict).The Subdistrict comprises those Urban areas south of US 41,generally east of the City of Naples,and generally west of the Rural Fringe Mixed Use District Neutral Lands,but excludes Section 13, Township 51 South,Range 26 East,and comprises approximately 11,354 acres and 10%of the Urban Mixed Use District.The entire Subdistrict is located seaward of the Coastal High Hazard Area Boundary.In order to facilitate hurricane evacuation and to protect the adjacent environmentally sensitive Conservation designated area,residential densities within the Subdistrict shall not exceed a maximum of 4 dwelling units per acre,except as allowed in the Density Rating System to exceed 4 units per acre through provision of Affordable Housing and Transfers of Development Rights,and except as allowed by certain FLUE Policies under Objective 5,and except as provided in the Bayshore Gateway Triangle Redevelopment Overlay.New rezones to permit mobile home development within this Subdistrict are prohibited.Rezones are recommended to be in the form of a Planned Unit Development. *** *** TEXT BREAK *** *** (IX)B.Rural Fringe Mixed Use District The Rural Fringe Mixed Use District is identified on Future Land Use Map.This District consists of approximately 93,600 acres,or 7%of Collier County's total land area. Significant portions of this District are adjacent to the Urban area or to the semi-rural,rapidly developing,large-lot North Golden Gate Estates platted lands.Agricultural land uses within the Rural Fringe Mixed Use District do not represent a significant portion of the County's active agricultural lands.As of the date of adoption of this Plan Amendment,the Rural Fringe Mixed Use District consists of more than 5,550 tax parcels,and includes at least 3,835 separate and distinct property owners.Alternative land use strategies have been developed for the Rural Fringe Mixed Use District,in part,to consider these existing conditions. The Rural Fringe Mixed Use District provides a transition between the Urban and Estates Designated lands and between the Urban and Agricultural/Rural and Conservation designated lands farther to the east.The Rural Fringe Mixed Use District employs a balanced approach,including both regulations and incentives,to protect natural resources and private property rights,providing for large areas of open space,and allowing,in designated areas, appropriate types,density and intensity of development. The Rural Fringe Mixed Use District allows for a mixture of urban and rural levels of service,including limited extension of central water and sewer,schools,recreational facilities,commercial uses and essential services deemed necessary to serve the residents of the District. In order to preserve existing natural resources, including habitat for listed species,to retain a rural,pastoral,or park-like appearance from the major public rights-of-way within this area,and to protect private property rights,the following innovative planning and development techniques are required and/or encouraged within the District. (IX)1.Transfer of Development Rights(TDR),and Sending,Neutral,and Receiving Designations: The primary purpose of the TDR process within the Rural Fringe Mixed Use District is to establish an equitable method of protecting and conserving the most valuable environmental lands,including large connected wetland systems and significant areas of habitat for listed species,while allowing property owners of such lands to recoup lost value and development potential through an economically viable process of transferring such rights to other more suitable lands.Within the Rural Fringe Mixed Use District,residential density may be transferred from lands designated as Sending Lands to lands designated as Receiving Lands on the Future Land Use Map, subject to the provisions below.Residential density may not be transferred either from or into areas designated as Neutral Lands through the TDR process. Section 6 -14 16F 4 Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy 2025 October 31,2024 IX)A)Receiving Lands: Receiving Lands are those lands within the Rural Fringe Mixed Use District that have been identified as being most appropriate for development and to which residential development units may be transferred from areas designated as Sending Lands. Based on the evaluation of available data,these lands have a lesser degree of environmental or listed species habitat value than areas designated as Sending and generally have been disturbed through development,or previous or existing agricultural operations. Various incentives are employed to direct development into Receiving Lands and away from Sending Lands,thereby maximizing native vegetation and habitat preservation and restoration. Such incentives include,but are not limited to:the TDR process; clustered development;density bonus incentives;and,provisions for central sewer and water.Within Receiving Lands,the following standards shall apply,except for those modifications that are identified in the North Belle Meade Overlay: 4.Emergency Preparedness: a)In order to reduce the likelihood of threat to life and property from a tropical storm or hurricane event,community facilities,schools,or other public buildings shall be designed to serve as storm shelters if located outside of areas that are likely to be inundated during storm events,as indicated on the Sea,Lake,and Overland Surge from Hurricane Map for Collier County.Impacts on evacuation routes, if any,must be considered as well.Applicants for new residential or mixed use developments proposed for Receiving Lands shall work with the Collier County Emergency Management staff to develop an Emergency Preparedness Plan to include provisions for storm shelter space,a plan for emergency evacuation,and other provisions that may be deemed appropriate and necessary to mitigate against a potential disaster. b)Applicants for new developments proposed for Receiving Lands shall work with the Florida Division of Forestry, Collier County Emergency Management staff,and the Managers of any adjacent or nearby public lands,to develop a Wildfire Prevention and Mitigation Plan that will reduce the likelihood of threat to life and property from wildfires. This plan will address,at a minimum:project structural design;the use of materials and location of structures so as to reduce wildfire threat;firebreaks and buffers;water features;and,the impacts of prescribed burning on adjacent or nearby lands. V.OVERLAYS AND SPECIAL FEATURES (XV)A.Area of Critical State Concern Overlay The Big Cypress Area of Critical State Concern(ACSC)was established by the 1974 Florida Legislature. The Critical Area is displayed on the Future Land Use Map as an overlay area.The Critical Area encompasses lands designated Conservation,Agricultural/Rural,Estates and Urban(Port of the Islands,Plantation Island and Copeland). The ACSC regulations notwithstanding,there is an existing Development Agreement between Port of the Islands,Inc.and the State of Florida Department of Community Affairs,approved in July 1985,which regulates land uses in the Port of the Islands Urban area;and,there is an Agreement between the Board of County Commissioners and the Florida Department of Community Affairs,approved in April 2005,pertaining to development in Plantation Island.Chocoloskee is excluded from the Big Cypress Area of Critical State Concern.All Development Orders within the Critical Area shall comply with Chapter 28-25,Florida Administrative Code, "Boundary and Regulations for the Big Cypress Area of Critical State Concern". Those regulations include the following: 1.Site Alteration b.Any non-permeable surface greater than 20,000 square feet shall provide for release of surface run off,collected or uncollected,in a manner approximating the natural surface water flow regime of the area. e.Fill areas and related dredge or borrow ponds shall be aligned substantially in the direction of local surface water flows and shall be separated from other fill areas and ponds by unaltered areas of vegetation of comparable size. Dredge or borrow ponds shall provide for the release of storm water as sheet flow from their downstream end into unaltered areas of vegetation.Access roads to and between fill areas shall provide for the passage of water in a manner approximating the natural flow regime and designed to accommodate the 50-year storm.Fill areas and related ponds shall not substantially retain or divert the total flow in or to a slough or strand or significantly impeded tidal action in any portion of the estuarine zone. 2.Drainage Section 6 -15 16F 4 Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy 2025 October 31,2024 a. Existing drainage facilities shall not be modified so as to discharge water to any coastal waters,either directly or through existing drainage facilities.Existing drainage facilities shall not be expanded in capacity or length except in conformance with paragraph(2)below;however,modifications may be made to existing facilities that will raise the ground water table or limit saltwater intrusion. b.New drainage facilities shall release water in a manner approximating the natural local surface flow regime, through a spreader pond or performance equivalent structure or system,either on site or to a natural retention, or natural filtration and flow area.New drainage facilities shall also maintain a ground water level enough to protect wetland vegetation through the use of weirs or performance equivalent structures or systems. Said facilities shall not retain,divert,or otherwise block or channel the naturally occurring flows in a strand,slough or estuarine area. c.New drainage facilities shall not discharge water into any coastal waters either directly or through existing drainage facilities. d.This rule shall not apply to drainage facilities modified or constructed in order to use land for agricultural purposes or to convert land to such use. 3.Transportation a. Transportation facilities which would retain,divert or otherwise block surface water flows shall provide for the re- establishment of sheet flow through the use of interceptor spreader systems or performance equivalent structures and shall provide for passage of stream,strand,or slough water through the use of bridges,culverts,piling construction or performance equivalent structures or systems. b.Transportation facilities shall be constructed substantially parallel to the local surface flow, and shall maintain a historic ground water level sufficient to protect wetland vegetation through the use of weirs or performance equivalent structures or systems and as feasible,the flows in such works shall be released to natural retention filtration and flow areas. c.Transportation facility construction sites shall provide for siltation and run-off control through the use of settling ponds,soil fixing or performance equivalent structures or systems. 4.Structure Installation a.Placement of structures shall be accomplished in a manner that will not adversely affect surface water flow or tidal action. b.Minimum lowest floor elevation permitted for structures shall be at or above the 100-year flood level,as established by the Administrator of the Federal Flood Insurance Administration. The construction of any structure shall meet additional Federal Flood Insurance Land Management and Use Criteria(24 CFR 1910), as administered by the appropriate local agency. (VII)Policy 5.6 For those lands that are not voluntarily included in the Rural Lands Stewardship program,Collier County shall direct non-agricultural land uses away from high functioning wetlands by limiting direct impacts within wetlands.A direct impact is hereby defined as the dredging or filling of a wetland or adversely changing the hydroperiod of a wetland.This policy shall be implemented as follows: 1.There are two(2)major wetlands systems within the RLSA, Camp Keais, Strand and the Okaloacoochee Slough. These two systems have been mapped and are designated as FSA"s.Policy 5.1 prohibits certain uses within the FSA"s,thus preserving and protecting the wetlands functions within those wetland systems. 2.The other significant wetlands within the RLSA are WRA"s as described in Policy 3.3. These areas are protected by existing SFWMD wetlands permits for each area. 3.FSAs,HSAs and WRAs,as provided in Policy 5.3,and the ACSC have stringent site clearing and alteration limitations,nonpermeable surface limitations,and requirements addressing surface water flows which protect Section 6 -16 16F 4 Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy 2025 October 31,2024 wetland functions within the wetlands in those areas. Other wetlands within the RLSA are isolated or seasonal wetlands. These wetlands will be protected based upon the wetland functionality assessment described below,and the final permitting requirements of the South Florida Water Management District. g.Wetland preservation,buffer areas,and mitigation areas shall be identified or platted as separate tracts. In the case of a Planned Unit Development(PUD),these areas shall also be depicted on the PUD Master Plan. These areas shall be maintained free from trash and debris and from Category I invasive exotic plants,as defined by the Florida Exotic Pest Plant Council. Land uses allowed in these areas shall be limited to those listed above(3.e.iv.)and shall not include any other activities that are detrimental to drainage,flood,control,water conservation,erosion control or fish and wildlife habitat conservation and preservation. TRANSPORTATION ELEMENT (https://www.colliercou n tvfl.gov/home/showpublisheddocument/106788/638481833028770000) (VI)OBJECTIVE 5: The County shall coordinate the Transportation System development process with the Future Land Use Map. (IV)(VI)Policy 5.8: Should the TIS for a proposed development reflect that it will impact either a constrained roadway link and/or a deficient roadway link within a TCMA by more than a de minimis amount(more than 1%of the maximum service volume at the adopted LOS),yet continue to maintain the established percentage of lanes miles indicated in Policy 5.7 of this Element,a congestion mitigation payment shall be required as follows: (VI)d.No impact will be de minimis if it exceeds the adopted LOS standard of any affected designated hurricane evacuation routes within a TCMA.Hurricane routes in Collier County are shown on Map TR7.Any impact to a hurricane evacuation route within a TCMA shall require a congestion mitigation payment provided the remaining LOS requirements of the TCMA are maintained. VI)OBJECTIVE 10: The County shall encourage safe and efficient mobility for the rural public. (VI)Policy 10.1: The County shall examine the maintenance and operational needs of the rural roadway system,addressing the mobility needs of rural residents to include the availability of roads for rural-to-urban travel,travel within the rural area,and for emergency evacuation purposes.

This framework ensures accessibility, transparency, and ongoing community engagement to strengthen hazard mitigation efforts. 1. Web Presence The Local Mitigation Strategy Working Group (LMSWG) Home Page is the central platform for public engagement and information dissemination. The webpage is designed to: • Provide a comprehensive overview of Collier County's Hazard Mitigation Program. • Share resources, such as "How-To" guides and references for mitigation activities. • Announce grant opportunities, LMS meetings, and key program updates. • Offer links to the current Local Mitigation Strategy and past meeting minutes. • Highlight floodplain management information and initiatives. To enhance accessibility, the Home Page meta-data includes targeted keywords, ensuring it ranks high in search engine results for individuals seeking hazard mitigation resources. The site is available 24/7, providing continuous access to essential information. Visit the LMSWG Home Page. 2. Meeting Announcements and Stakeholder Outreach • Public Notices: Meeting announcements are distributed via Collier County's Public Affairs Office to all local media outlets, ensuring widespread visibility. • Stakeholder Notifications: Direct emails are sent to LMS stakeholders for every meeting, fostering consistent engagement. • Documentation: Outreach efforts are documented through archived screenshots and correspondence as evidence of public and stakeholder engagement (see Attachments 1 and 4). 3. Floodplain Management Outreach Annual outreach events conducted by the Floodplain Management Section target homeowners, civic groups, and professional organizations. These sessions cover: • The benefits of the Community Rating System (CRS) program. • History and significance of the National Flood Insurance Program. • Requirements for flood insurance and elevation certificates. • Building and construction standards for flood-prone areas. 4. Emergency Preparedness Seminars Hurricane preparedness seminars and Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) training programs include presentations on: • The Local Mitigation Strategy and its objectives. • Available disaster mitigation programs tailored to the community. 5. Social Media Engagement The Emergency Management Division utilizes Facebook and Twitter to: ANNEX — C - 1 16F 4 Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy 2025 November 19,2024 • Announce upcoming meetings and events. • Share updates on disaster mitigation initiatives and grant opportunities. • Post community awareness campaigns. Examples of posts are provided in Attachment 2. 6. Public Comments and Feedback • Public attendees at "properly noticed" LMSWG meetings have their names and comments recorded in the minutes. • Feedback and recommendations submitted outside meetings are documented, reviewed, and addressed during future sessions (see Attachment 3). 7. Ongoing Public Involvement Collier County is committed to maintaining and enhancing public participation in the Local Mitigation Strategy (LMS) beyond the plan's approval. Currently, the county carries out digital outreach and awareness through various channels, including the LMS page on the County's website, social media platforms, and interactive GIS tools that allow residents to better understand their flood and evacuation zones. In addition, the county collaborates with the Chamber of Commerce, whose members actively participate in the LMS Working Group, ensuring valuable input from the business community. The LMS has also been incorporated into local planning processes to align mitigation efforts with broader community development initiatives. To further promote transparency and accessibility, LMS meeting minutes, schedules, and other pertinent information are regularly posted on the LMS page of the County Emergency Management website, providing the public with ongoing opportunities to stay informed and engaged in mitigation planning efforts. Goal The goal of these processes is to create accessible and meaningful opportunities for public involvement, build trust and transparency, and foster collaborative efforts to reduce hazard vulnerabilities and enhance community resilience in Collier County.

Para 1.2.3 If a resolution appears possible, but further discussion is needed, a subsequent meeting may be scheduled between a representative of the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) and a Mayor or representative of the City Council of the municipalities opposed. A representative from the state may also be invited to this meeting if deemed appropriate. Section 3, paras: 1.2.1, 1.2.1.1, 1.2.1.2, 1.6, 1.8, 1.9 —add Sea Level Rise as a hazard Goal 6, 1st sentence - Collier County and local Municipalities shall make.... Section 6, para 6.2.1.3 The City of Marco Island: The Growth Management Director, Chief Building Official and Floodplain Coordinator (CFM) and the staff from the Growth Management Planning Division are currently amending the City's Comprehensive Plan to include various Local Mitigation Strategy (LMS) initiatives. Staff will continue to emphasize the goals and objectives of the mitigation process in all area of government with regard to regulation and development inside and outside the floodplain. Attachment 2 shows ways the city may incorporate the LMs in existing plans. 1. In Section 1.2.1 the paragraph discussing revoking voting membership status generally sounds good, but I thought that the revocation also applied to the individual sections represented in the participating jurisdictions. For example, if nobody from Stormwater attends at least 2 of the quarterly meetings then Stormwater can be voted for removal. However, that would not mean that Collier County is removed from the LMSWG. Is that your understanding? If so, perhaps there should be some additional verbiage to better identify sub-units within the participating jurisdictions. Also, in that same paragraph, the second highlighted text should probably say "members from the public or from private non-profit" instead of"members from the public or form private non-profit". 2. In Section 4.1.5 I thought the LMSWG agreed for an annual update rather every two years. I'm probably wrong on this but thought it worth checking. 3. Annex C on the DRAFT 2020 LMS web page needs to have a closing parenthesis at the end of the Board of County Commissioners line. 4. Annex D Public Meeting Announcements paragraph has a typo in that the work "formerly" should be "formally". 5. Annex D Annual Flood Plain Outreach Meetings needs to be consistent in how the term "floodplain" is spelled. While it should be one word, there are two places where is spelled with two words. 6. Annex D Emergency Management Hurricane Seminars and Community Emergency Response Team paragraph seems to have a typo in that it doubles the "Local Mitigation Strategy" term when perhaps something else was intended to be included. 7. Annex D Social Media (Facebook & Twitter) paragraph should reference the location of the social media account samples as being in Attachment 2. 8. Annex E — Excel Spreadsheet has cells A3 thru G3 blank when it appears there should be some text to identify the program. Note that I did not check the links. 9. Annex F could perhaps benefit by indicating the effective date of the project priority listing. That way everyone knows when priority revisions are made by the LMSWG. ANNEX — C - 6 16F 4 Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy 2025 November 19,2024 10. Annex H listing of membership needs to be updated to reflect membership changes identified in the Summary of Changes document. 11. Annex I needs to be checked to ensure all criteria have been updated as discussed at the last few LMSWG meetings. Section One. Recommend the following changes: paragraph 1.2 change "Pubic School District" to "Collier County Public Schools", paragraph 1.2.1 change "School Superintendent" to "Collier County Public Schools Superintendent", paragraph 1.2.1, change "District Schools of Collier County" to "Collier County Public Schools", paragraph 1.3.1 change "District School Board of Collier County" to "Collier County Public Schools". Sections three, four, and five: No changes recommended. Annex C. Change "Collier District Public Schools" to "Collier County Public Schools". LMS Update Annex A: Page 2 of 9 Listed below are the potential hazards which may affect Collier County and its communities. Please note that a detailed analysis for some hazards are contained in the Collier County Floodplain Management Plan (FMP): https://www.colliercountvfl.gov/home/showdocument?id=58898 The Collier County Floodplain Management Plan will not be repeated in this document. Hazard analyses not found in the FMP are addressed here by either noting a low probability of occurrence to a detail analysis of the event, via appendices to this annex. Many of these hazards have a low impact status or are too random in nature and do not represent a significant threat, therefore a thorough analysis was not performed. LMS Update Annex D: Annual Floodplain Outreach Meetings Annual Floodplain Management Outreach Meetings: The Collier County Floodplain Management Section conducts outreach to homeowner associations, condominium associations, civic groups, professional organizations, and other specific groups regarding the following information: • Benefits of the Community Rating System program • History of the National Flood Insurance Program • Flood insurance • Elevation certificate information • Building and construction standards within the floodplain LMS Update Annex J: Collier County's Floodplain Plans (Update) Unincorporated Collier County has a Floodplain Management Plan. The City of Marco Island and the City of Naples do not possess a Floodplain Management Plan, nor are they required to adopt one. The Floodplain Management Plan is a part of the Collier County multi-jurisdictional, multi-hazard mitigation plan which addresses the jurisdictional flooding hazards. They are written according to FEMA regulations and Section 511 and 512 of the CRS Coordinator's Manual. All jurisdictions are active participants in the NFIP. To ensure continued compliance with the NFIP, each participating community will: 1. Continue to enforce their adopted Floodplain Management Ordinance requirements, which include regulating all new development and substantial improvements in Special Flood Hazard Areas (SFHA). ANNEX — C - 7 16F 4 Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy 2025 November 19,2024 2. Continue to maintain all records pertaining to floodplain development, which shall be available for public inspection 3. Continue to notify the public when there are proposed changes to the floodplain ordinance or Flood Insurance Rate Maps. 4. Maintain the map and Letter of Map Change repositories. 5. Continue to promote Flood Insurance for all properties. 6. Continue their Community Rating System outreach programs. SUMMARY OF JURISDICTIONAL CRS PROGRAMS Collier County: Collier County's NFIP participation commitments meet or exceed the following minimum requirements as set for by the NFIP. • Issuance or denial of floodplain development/building permits • Inspection of all development to assure compliance with the local ordinance • Maintaining records of floodplain development • Assisting in the preparation and revision of floodplain maps • Aid residents in obtaining information on flood hazards, floodplain map data, flood insurance and proper construction measures The County's Building Plan Review & Inspection Division (BPRID) is the agency responsible for the review and approval of all development order applications to the County. The application review process includes analysis for compliance with the County's Land Development Code, the County's Code of Laws and Ordinances (which includes the Floodplain Management Ordinance), the Florida Building Code, the South Florida Water Management District permitting rules (when applicable), the County's Growth Management Plan, and other related regulations for development compliance. The development and building permit approval processes consist of extensive reviews of the submitted applications to determine compliance before a recommendation for approval is given. Once a development project begins actual construction, there are periodic on-site inspections performed by trained inspection staff to ensure compliance before the construction can proceed toward completion. All documents submitted to the County become part of the project's public record file and are available for the public to review upon request. Copies can be ordered if requested. Once a project is completed, the file is closed and archived and is available for record retrieval. The BPRID is also active in the preparation and revision of Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRM) and maintains the record of all map revisions and changes received from FEMA. As a part of the services offered to the public, the BPRID provides FIRM information, flood insurance program information, flooding hazards, and proper construction methods within the special flood hazard area. The BPRID also oversees the County's participation in the Community Rating System (CRS) program. The County is currently designated as a CRS Class 5 rated community for its efforts to promote activities that make the community more resistant to flood damage. Collier County is currently in the process of to producing a new Digital Flood Insurance Rate Map (DFIRM) series through a CTP Partnership Agreement with the City of Naples, the South Florida Water Management District, and FEMA. On January 9, 2019 the County adopted a new Floodplain Management Ordinance that is compliant with the current State of Florida "Model" Flood Ordinance. The County has an active Floodplain Management Planning Committee to oversee the development and updating of the County's Floodplain Management Plan. As part of the CRS program the County provides flood hazard and flood insurance information to the public through a newsletter, mailings, and the internet. ANNEX — C - 8 16F 4 Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy 2025 November 19,2024 Appendix 1 - Wildfires has seen no significant change in wildfire incidence type, though the acreage for each has adjusted due the 30th Ave and Lee Williams Road fires in 2017 and the Greenway complex in 2018. I did send out an email today for the GGE CWPP which needs signing in order to incorporate it into the LMS in addition to or in place of Appendix 1. I shall continue to prod 'the bear' as it were to get that in time for our deadline. North Collier Fire Control and Rescue District's acknowledgement of reviewing the Draft 2020 LMS plan.

I struck thru the EAR text because: 2011 is past, and the EAR process required in F.S. has been gutted —we now only review for any changes in F.S. not reflected in our GMP whereas previously we would conduct a detailed re- evaluation of the GMP. 6.2.1.1 Unincorporated Collier County: Coordinators in the Emergency Management Office, the Floodplain Manager and members of the Comprehensive Planning Section Department will weigh the goals and objectives of the LMS against each plan and/or ordinance being reviewed at the time determined for each document. The LMSWG will assess Goal 12 in the Conservation and Coastal Management Element (CCME) of the GMP, which contains policy 12.1.9 which references the Hazard Mitigation Plan, would include an assessment by the county that we needed to modify this element to meet the specifics of any current mitigation requirements. Additionally, where opportunities present themselves, the responsible agency will seek the LMSWG's support in amending the appropriate documents. • Page 6-6: Text is out of order— re-arrange as shown below: FUTURE LAND USE ELEMENT ANNEX — C - 9 16F 4 Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy 2025 November 19,2024 C. UNDERLYING CONCEPTS Management of Coastal Development Two major coastal development issues in Collier County are the protection of natural resources and the balancing of risk in natural hazard areas. Extensive populated areas in Collier County are vulnerable to periodic salt-water inundation from tropical storms or hurricanes. It is extremely important that an acceptable balance between at-risk population and evacuation capability be achieved. In addition, public and private investment in such vulnerable areas must be carefully considered. This issue is addressed here and in the Conservation and Coastal Management Element through several measures. A Coastal High Hazard Area is identified on the Future Land Use Map essentially as all lands seaward of US 41. This line is based on the close fit to the storm Category 1 SLOSH area (potential for saltwater flooding from 1 storm in 12 years) and evacuation planning areas. Within the Coastal High Hazard Area maximum permissible residential density is limited in recognition of the level of risk, the existing deficiency of evacuation shelter space and existing patterns of density. The Coastal High Hazard Area is also identified in the Conservation and Coastal Management Element and policies are provided therein. Finally, coastal natural hazards are addressed through Land Development Regulations already in effect relating to coastal building standards, per Chapter 161, Florida Statutes, and protection of structures from floods, per County participation in the FEMA Flood Insurance Program. OBJECTIVE 1: Unless otherwise permitted in this Growth Management Plan, new or revised uses of land shall be consistent with designations outlined on the Future Land Use Map. The Future Land Use Map and companion Future Land Use Designations, Districts and Sub-districts shall be binding on all Development Orders effective with the adoption of this Growth Management Plan. Standards and permitted uses for each Future Land Use District and Subdistrict are identified in the Designation Description Section. Through the magnitude, location and configuration of its components, the Future Land Use Map is designed to coordinate land use with the natural environment including topography, soil and other resources; promote a sound economy; coordinate coastal population densities with the Regional Hurricane Evacuation Plan; and discourage unacceptable levels of urban sprawl. FUTURE LAND USE DESIGNATION DESCRIPTION SECTION The following section describes the land use designations shown on the Future Land Use Map. These designations generally indicate the types of land uses for which zoning may be requested. However, these land use designations do not guarantee that a zoning request will be approved. Requests may be denied by the Board of County Commissioners based on criteria in the Land Development Code or on special studies completed for the County. • Pages 6-6 thru 6-23: 1) Because the GMP has been amended several times since the last LMS update, I suggest removing all GMP excerpts and replacing with the same from the current GMP. 2) I suggest placing a text break whenever skipping from one GMP provision to another so as to make it clear to the reader that the text from one section is not a continuation from the prior section. See below example from page 6-7. existing development; patterns of approved, but unbuilt, development; natural resources; water management; hurricane risk; existing and proposed public facilities; population projections and the land needed to accommodate the projected population growth. ANNEX — C - 10 16F 4 Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy 2025 November 19,2024 *** *** TEXT BREAK *** *** (IV)(XI)(XV)(XXI) 3. Urban Coastal Fringe Subdistrict: The purpose of this Subdistrict is to provide transitional densities between the Conservation designated area (primarily located to the south of the Subdistrict) and the remainder of the Urban designated area (primarily located to the north of the Subdistrict). The Subdistrict comprises those Urban areas south of US 41, generally east of the City of Naples, and generally west of the Rural Fringe Mixed Use District Neutral Lands, but excludes Section 13, Township 51 South, Range 26 East, and comprises approximately 11,354 acres and 10% of the Urban Mixed Use District. The entire Subdistrict is located seaward of the Coastal High Hazard Area Boundary. In order to facilitate hurricane evacuation and to protect the adjacent environmentally sensitive Conservation designated area, residential densities within the Subdistrict shall not exceed a maximum of 4 dwelling units per acre, except as allowed in the Density Rating System to exceed 4 units per acre through provision of Affordable Housing and Transfers of Development Rights, and except as allowed by certain FLUE Policies under Objective 5, and except as provided in the Bayshore Gateway Triangle Redevelopment Overlay. New rezones to permit mobile home development within this Subdistrict are prohibited. Rezones are recommended to be in the form of a Planned Unit Development. *** *** TEXT BREAK *** *** (IX) B. Rural Fringe Mixed Use District The Rural Fringe Mixed Use District is identified on Future Land Use Map. This District consists of approximately 93,600 acres, or 7% of Collier County's total land area. Significant portions of this District are adjacent to the Urban area or to the semi-rural, rapidly developing, large-lot North Golden Gate Estates platted lands. Agricultural land uses within the Rural Fringe Mixed Use District do not represent a significant portion of the County's active agricultural lands. As of the date of adoption of this Plan Amendment, the Rural Fringe Mixed Use District consists of more than 5,550 tax parcels, and includes at least 3,835 separate and distinct property owners. Alternative land use strategies have been developed for the Rural Fringe Mixed Use District, in part, to consider these existing conditions.

In order to justify its existence, the service would also have to operate in a non-disaster capacity. It is likely that most local governments are aware of local programs which provide meals, canned goods, etcetera, to needy individuals. A good mitigation strategy might be to work with one or more of these agencies (already certified under the USDA program) to establish mechanisms for quickly putting disaster mass feeding operations in place. Forest Lands (None) • Grantor Name: Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services/Division of Forestry • Purpose: To preserve Florida forests • Eligibility: The State of Florida receives annual Florida Forever funding for the acquisition of forested lands • Criteria/Use: The program operates primarily through the purchase of land from "willing sellers".

Individual State information and eligibility requirements are available from local employment offices. • Criteria/Use: The States have direct responsibility for establishing and operating their own unemployment insurance programs, while the Federal Government finances the cost of administration. • Funding Mechanism: Formula Grants; Direct Payments with Unrestricted Use • Overall Funding Available: Contact Agency • Funding Amount: Contact Agency • Match Requirements: None • Deadline: Contact Agency • Applicability to Mitigation: Of importance for mitigation purposes is the Disaster Unemployment Assistance Program, administered by the Department of Labor from funds allocated by FEMA. Unfortunately, this funding would only be available after a disaster, and could not be used by a local government to build up the employment base of a community before a disaster struck. However, the monies would conceivably be available after an economic disaster; such as a massive crop failure or the closure of a major employer. Volunteer Fire Assistance Grants (VFAG) • Grantor Name: Florida Division of Forestry/Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services • Purpose: To provide federal financial, technical, and other assistance to State Foresters to organize, train, and equip fire departments in rural areas and rural communities to prevent and suppress fires. • Eligibility: A single fire department serving a rural area or a rural community with a population of 10,000 or less, area fire departments (fire districts, townships, etc.) may serve an aggregate population of greater than 10,000 as long as the service area of the fire department includes a rural area or a rural community having a population of 10,000 or less, a single county or town with a population over 10,000 which is served by two or more fire districts operating entirely within the bounds of the county or town, a single community with a population greater than 10,000 and having a single fire department with one or more fire stations may qualify, or a single community fire department serving a population greater than 10,000 and not providing protection to a rural area or to a rural community is not eligible for VFA financial assistance. 16F 4 Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy 2025 November 20,2024 • Criteria/Use: A rural community is defined as having 10,000 or less population, or as defined below. This 10,000-population limit for participation in the VFA Program facilitates distribution of available VFA funds to the most needy fire departments. Preference will be given to VFA Grant applications for the purchase of wildland personal protective gear, communications equipment, water handling equipment, and training. The purchase of vehicles and high value equipment will not be funded due to the limited amount of funds available. Purchases made before the date of the VFA application are not eligible for reimbursement. Proof of Purchase forms and invoices must be dated after the date of the VFA application • Funding Mechanism: Grants and technical assistance • Overall Funding Available: Contact Agency • Funding Amount: Contact Agency • Match Requirements: 50% • Deadline: April each year • Applicability to Mitigation: Having properly trained and resourced firefighters is a form of mitigation.

However, new buildings and infrastructure are incorporated into the LMS in two key ways: 1. Compliance with the Florida Building Code: Collier County rigorously enforces the Florida Building Code for all new construction. This code, developed based on lessons learned from Hurricane Andrew, ensures that new structures are built to high standards of resilience and safety. 2. Development Review for Mitigation Opportunities: The Emergency Management Department conducts thorough reviews of all Developments of Regional Impact (DRIs) and Planned Unit Developments (PUDs). This process identifies mitigation initiatives to address and reduce potential impacts these developments may have on the community's emergency preparedness and overall resilience. Process for Inclusion of Mitigation Action Items in the LMS Listing The inclusion of mitigation action items in the Local Mitigation Strategy (LMS) project priority listing follows a structured and transparent process: 1. Initiation of a Mitigation Proposal o A Local Mitigation Strategy Working Group (LMSWG) member may propose a mitigation initiative to a "responsible agency" for grant application. Alternatively, a "responsible agency" may directly submit a Mitigation Initiative Evaluation Score Sheet (Annex H) to the LMSWG for consideration at a working group meeting. o Note: The Mitigation Initiative Evaluation Score Sheet (Annex H) serves as a critical evaluation tool. It ensures alignment with the LMS goals and objectives (Section 3), provides an assessment of the project's community impact and value, and includes a basic benefit-cost analysis (BCA) for the applicant to complete. 2. Applicant Presentation o The "responsible agency" (hereafter referred to as the applicant) presents the proposed mitigation initiative to the LMSWG during a regular or special meeting. 3. Discussion and Evaluation o LMSWG members engage in discussions, ask clarifying questions, and may challenge the scores or comments on the Mitigation Initiative Evaluation Score Sheet (Annex H). 16F 4 Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy 2025 December 18,2024 4. Scoring and Voting o Once all questions are addressed and scores are finalized, LMSWG members vote on the initiative. A simple majority vote is required for approval. o The Chair finalizes the scoring process, applying the weighting factors outlined in Section 4 (Procedures for Prioritizing Hazard Mitigation Initiatives), and incorporates the new action item into the project priority listing based on its final weighted score. 5. Special Circumstance for Time-Sensitive Applications o If an eligible entity identifies a grant opportunity for a mitigation initiative not yet listed on the Prioritized Listing of Mitigation Action Items (Annex E) and the next LMSWG meeting would delay the application process, the following expedited procedure applies: • The applicant submits a completed Annex H score sheet to the Emergency Management Department. • Emergency Management forwards the score sheet to the Chair, who electronically distributes it to LMSWG voting members along with an explanation of the time-sensitive nature of the application. • Voting members have two business days to vote on the initiative. A majority vote, with at least three members in agreement, determines its status. • A record of this expedited process is included in the minutes of the next scheduled meeting. 6. Special Rule for Unquantifiable Initiatives o For initiatives that cannot be quantified, refer to Section 4, Paragraph 4.1.4 for guidance. 7. Floodplain Management Initiatives o Annex I (Collier County Floodplain Plans) addresses the minimum actions required for compliance with the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). o Communities participating in the Community Rating System (CRS) with floodplain management plans document their activities that exceed NFIP requirements in their respective plans. o For CRS communities that are not required to have floodplain management plans and choose not to develop one, this section serves as the repository for their floodplain-related initiatives. Important Note: Approval through this process only adds the project to the Collier County project priority listing. The applicant is still responsible for completing the appropriate project application, including the full FEMA Benefit-Cost Analysis (BCA), for grant consideration. 16F 4 Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy 2025 December 18,2024 This page intentionally left blank 16F 4 a) O) > al -0 .C C Q) N 0 -- X p C Ca a) I C (i) O O -0 o-, > 3 -0 a) (B a) 0 C a-• U C O C a) 0 -c •Q U U -2 L cn >'.0 a3 1E 0- U (N 0 - TD 0)-0 U _C0 0 -a O a) - O U_ O O ,4- co '� L > Zi Q O 0 0 O C ro C C - E (6 L O U C L w u) C a) c 0 L I- O Q C a) (C vC\I ZO E E O _0) U .O U m N � 7 > L y U - N a CO � •E -o — }' >' o 2 C o O 2 > () cn Q) L C C 0 N Q Z N U .— Q) Q) -0 O C6 a) co o u L. -0 C L -- w � ~ ` 0 0� CD •--"---- V C (p 73 to m X J cu 0 4- a--- (0 C (B C O O V w J E a) Ncos- N a) CO C `� - Z Q H c°'., c 2 .C om t!1 Q O � � nln 0) 0) Q 7 L) E a 0 J Q > cn N O C a) O a) 2 - C Z w a) oo a) 0 • � � � O tt E c o Es a � E � `roc O V 0 0 - U O 0 O O co a Y d > N LLJ > > 0 +. --Cs- (a CL :tta) O L L O J C Q V U 0 0 L m C ° L a) -) tB co O *L.+ O u) c c a d c c C a) C (a 0• 1 O E C U y L .� (O O O C Q) O O Q- O cn U m a) a) -- o c , E E 0 V •� L O 0 (0 C -c c w -- 0CI y' C 0. a C .V .0 0) as N L >, Q (n a) aaO O L Ora. +, 2, E O 'a c C 0) o > a) y +, m ° E t) o O O u. ° a) Q ow E a m . _0 2 a_) 0 y L L- ai _c co W 4- a) -c N C a..� Q) L c (O L >+ 0 t- V 5 = c 0 ° m .� -c a) (B C +� c C _ a) ° i O (a '' O Q. `° 0 '� +L Q E a cu ai M > CD m 2 = U L c co U m C O 0 N E '� 0 V (33 N V m (� '� N o M C - Ca c) 0 a) 1 (a 0 N L c� ° o m _C a) � �- •ACC •- - IU o •a) _Z a) O m O OV c E -- D (n O II II a 11 ii — a JCU a II — o f— 0 3 ° cn x � ca 6a. a n 0- � VaQcn' � il0 �ii Z C o4- � w •� ZQ22 � m li o2 omwa• Q �, O E0020 o = i- °� cnwac� o < ca a) L u) cn ° O) a) Ou C IV e0aQaCLU) 0Jt� Z o N o a) cn 3 C C Z sa i • — a) -0 z - CO • • • • • 0 • • • • • • • • • • (Q (0 Y U r J 0 N M 16F 4 a) W E ' 0 a-; 0 C/) Yai ,,, L • E aa) a)a) C O F r fr L 0 � n D n D 4_ _ _ O CSS 0 L E _ 9 CD -• 0 t= faN N E N 4'' E Q U V (13 cu_ j a 0 7 Li- O in kh ,ID fa) 0 a) N m mOO ft) +_� O N C • co E m N O — E 'D C- N C m C 2 N O F Y E LL Q) 2, C U � G .0 Ov W L as o. 0 2 @cJ >Cal-O •(� O 0 N 2 m m c C ro o N m ` m O 4- E K C f0 - � >,.'^ tD CO -I a.)

All County Local Mitigation Strategy Working Group Chairs FROM: Kathleen Marshall.Hazard Mitigation Grant Program Administrator THROUGH. Laura Dhuwe,Mitigation Bureau Chief Laura DhuweO: RE: FEMA Announcement for 90/10 Cost Share Adjustment-Update DATE: June 6,2022 On March 18,2022,FEMA released an advisory regarding President Biden's signing into law 'H.R.2471,Consolidated Appropriations Act,2022."This law will effectively raise the federal cost-share from 75 percent to no less than 90 percent for those emergencies or major disaster declarations with an incident period beginning between January 1, 2020 and December 31, 2021. For the Hazard Mitigation Grant Program in Florida,this includes Hurricane Sally(DR- 4564) and the COVID-19 Pandemic (DR-4486). On March 22, 2022, FDEM sent out a memorandum announcing this change. This is an update to that release with additional information with how this change will be implemented For those disasters affected,the change in cost-share will be applied to the same grant award lock-in,as there will be no automatic increase in the federal award amount. Other than DR- 4486,any increase in the lock-in needs to be requested by the state,with justification,and is at the state's discretion to do so,if the situation warrants it.As for DR-4486,the lock-in is fixed and FEMA has stated that no additional funding has been authorized for this disaster,so no request for review from the states will be considered. Concerning the applications submitted for both DR-4486 and DR-4564,those that have been sent to FEMA for award,or that wit be in the future,will be adjusted to reflect a 90/10 cost- share for as far as the available federal award allows for the relevant disaster_ These adjustments wit be made with the tier funding order,as well as LMS funding priority,in mind. This is to stay in line with our administrative rule,Florida Administrative Code 27P-22 At this time, there is no additional information or action needed on the part of the sub- applicants/recipients.Should any be needed,you will be contacted by your respective project managers with further instructions We thank you for your patience in this matter and we look forward to using this new development to continue our mitigation efforts in Florida DIVISION ele ADOU ARTERS Telephone B50-815460C STATE LOGISTICS RESPONSE CENTER 2555 Belmar.Oa*Boulevard lyre Forkt^isauwrr` 2'[2 0 rt_1O'i Rom T a!'alnassee.FL 32399-2100 =r+-]: F_ 16F 4 Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy 2025 November 20,2024 Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy Working Group(LMSWG)Agenda and Prior Minutes Page 5 of 10 Attachment 2 to the 15 July 2022 Agenda/Minutes FEMA/FDEM HMGP Watershed Planning Initiative Grant Emergency Meeting Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy Working Group Email Correspondence Summary 1.

This effort aimed to enhance the county's mitigation planning processes and better align with state and federal guidelines. To ensure broad participation and transparency, the public was invited through multiple outreach methods, including email notifications, newspaper advertisements, blast-fax announcements, and postings on the County's website (Collier County LMS Page). The outreach extended to various stakeholders such as media representatives, business leaders, the medical community, and governmental agencies. These invitations were delivered via the same methods and supplemented with direct invitations to key participants. At the kickoff meeting, the County Manager set the tone for the initiative with a welcoming address. The Florida Division of Emergency Management's Mitigation Specialist and the Collier County Emergency Management Director provided an overview of the program's purpose, emphasizing the importance of diligent planning, execution, and ongoing maintenance of the LMS.

Mitigation Initiatives: Criteria for Scoring and Prioritizing The prioritization of mitigation initiative process begins with the sponsor(s) of each initiative then goes to the Local Mitigation Strategy Working Group. The first step consists of the sponsoring governments, agencies, and departments developing their initiatives and then scoring each project using the matrix developed by the LMS Working Groups. The sponsor's prioritized initiatives are then presented to the LMS Working Group via the Collier County Emergency Management Division who will put the initiative on the LMS meeting agenda. The Working Group then reviews, discusses, revises and votes on each of the initiatives, assigning each a score and a ranking using the scoring matrix. The LMS Chair will brief the Collier County Citizen Corps about new mitigation projects and activities LMS Working Group since the Citizen Corps last meeting. In grouping the initiatives, in addition to using the scores derived from the matrix as a guide, considerations such as useful life of the initiative, cost-effectiveness, funding capability, and time required to implement and complete the project were factored. B. Special Grant Funding Opportunities & other exigent circumstances: Should an eligible entity have an opportunity to apply for a mitigation grant for a project not previously listed on the Project Priority Listing (Annex E) and not be able to apply for the grant because the next announced LMSWG meeting would preclude timely application, this procedure applies. The applicant will complete a project score sheet, below, and submit it to the Emergency Management Division. Emergency Management will transmit the score sheet to the LMS Chair. The LMS Chair will electronically transmit the score sheet to the voting members of the LMSWG along with an explanation of the exigent circumstances. The LMSWG voting members have two business-days to vote on the project acceptability to the project priority listing. At the conclusion of the two business-days a majority vote, with at least three votes agreeing, determines the initiative's status. A transcript of this exception will be entered in the minutes at the next scheduled meeting. C. Mitigation Initiatives Scoring Matrix The following table represents the scoring matrix used for the submission of initiatives for consideration for inclusion in the Collier County LMS.

The City of Marco Island and the City of Naples do not possess a Floodplain Management Plan, nor are they required to adopt one. The Floodplain Management Plan is a part of the Collier County multi-jurisdictional, multi-hazard mitigation plan which addresses the jurisdictional flooding hazards. They are written according to FEMA regulations and Section 511 and 512 of the CRS Coordinator's Manual. All jurisdictions are active participants in the NFIP. To ensure continued compliance with the NFIP, each participating community will: 1 . Continue to enforce their adopted Floodplain Management Ordinance requirements, which include regulating all new development and substantial improvements in Special Flood Hazard Areas (SFHA). 2. Continue to maintain all records pertaining to floodplain development, which shall be available for public inspection 3. Continue to notify the public when there are proposed changes to the floodplain ordinance or Flood Insurance Rate Maps. 4. Maintain the map and Letter of Map Change repositories. 5. Continue to promote Flood Insurance for all properties. 6. Continue their Community Rating System outreach programs. SUMMARY OF JURISDICTIONAL CRS PROGRAMS Collier County: Collier County's NFIP participation commitments meet or exceed the following minimum requirements as set for by the NFIP. • Issuance or denial of floodplain development/building permits • Inspection of all development to assure compliance with the local ordinance • Maintaining records of floodplain development • Assisting in the preparation and revision of floodplain maps • Aid residents in obtaining information on flood hazards, floodplain map data, flood insurance and proper construction measures ANNEX I - 1 Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy 2025 January 24,2025 16F 4 Collier County Floodplain Management The County's Building Plan Review & Inspection Division (BPRID) is the agency responsible for the review and approval of all development order applications to the County. The application review process includes analysis for compliance with the County's Land Development Code, the County's Code of Laws and Ordinances (which includes the Floodplain Management Ordinance), the Florida Building Code, the South Florida Water Management District permitting rules (when applicable), the County's Growth Management Plan, and other related regulations for development compliance. The development and building permit approval processes consist of extensive reviews of the submitted applications to determine compliance before a recommendation for approval is given. Once a development project begins actual construction, there are periodic on-site inspections performed by trained inspection staff to ensure compliance before the construction can proceed toward completion. All documents submitted to the County become part of the project's public record file and are available for the public to review upon request. Copies can be ordered if requested. Once a project is completed, the file is closed and archived and is available for record retrieval. The BPRID is also active in the preparation and revision of Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRM) and maintains the record of all map revisions and changes received from FEMA. As a part of the services offered to the public, the BPRID provides FIRM information, flood insurance program information, flooding hazards, and proper construction methods within the special flood hazard area. The BPRID also oversees the County's participation in the Community Rating System (CRS) program. The County is currently designated as a CRS Class 5 rated community for its efforts to promote activities that make the community more resistant to flood damage. Collier County is currently in the process of to producing a new Digital Flood Insurance Rate Map (DFIRM) series through a CTP Partnership Agreement with the City of Naples, the South Florida Water Management District, and FEMA. On January 9, 2019 the County adopted a new Floodplain Management Ordinance that is compliant with the current State of Florida "Model" Flood Ordinance. The County has an active Floodplain Management Planning Committee to oversee the development and updating of the County's Floodplain Management Plan. As part of the CRS program the County provides flood hazard and flood insurance information to the public through a newsletter, mailings, and the internet. City of Naples: The City of Naples's NFIP participation commitments meet or exceed the following minimum requirements as set for by the NFIP. • Issuing or denying floodplain development/building permits • Inspecting all development to assure compliance with the local ordinance • Maintaining records of floodplain development • Assisting in the preparation and revision of floodplain maps • Helping residents obtain information on flood hazards, floodplain map data, flood insurance and proper construction measures ANNEX I - 2 16F 4 Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy 2025 January 24,2025 The City of Naples Building Department is the agency responsible for the review and approval of all development order applications to the City of Naples. The application review process includes an analysis for compliance with the Land Development Code, the Code of Laws and Ordinances (which includes the Flood Damage Prevention Ordinance), the Florida Building Code, the South Florida Water Management District permitting rules (when applicable), the Growth Management Plan, and other related regulations for development approval compliance. Both the development permit and building permit approval processes consist of extensive reviews of the submitted applications to determine compliance before a recommendation for approval is given. Once a development begins actual construction, there are a number of periodic on-site inspections performed by trained inspection staff to ensure compliance before the construction can proceed toward completion. All documents submitted to the City become part of the development's public record file and are available to the public's review upon request. Copies can be ordered if requested. Once a development is completed, the file is closed and archived, but still available for record retrieval. The Building Department is also active in the preparation and revision of floodplain maps and maintains the record of all map revisions and changes received from FEMA. As a part of the services offered to the public, the Floodplain Coordinator provides FEMA floodplain mapping information, flood insurance program information, flooding hazards, and proper construction methods within the special flood hazard area. The Floodplain Coordinator also oversees the City's participation in the Community Rating System (CRS) program, and which currently holds a Class 5 rating for its efforts to promote activities to make the community more resistant to flood damage. The City of Naples is currently in the final efforts to produce a new Digital Flood Insurance Rate Map (DFIRM) through a CTP Partnership Agreement with Collier County, the South Florida Water Management District, and FEMA. As part of the CRS program the City provides flood hazard and flood insurance information to the public through a newsletter, mailings, and the internet. City of Marco Island: The City of Marco Island's NFIP participation commitments meet or exceed the following minimum requirements as set for by the NFIP. • Issuing or denying floodplain development/building permits • Inspecting all development to assure compliance with the local ordinance • Maintaining records of floodplain development • Assisting in the preparation and revision of floodplain maps • Helping residents obtain information on flood hazards, floodplain map data, flood insurance and proper construction measures One of the Growth Management Department responsibilities is to promote sound and effective Floodplain Management within the City of Marco Island. We continue to promote public awareness of natural disasters and the benefits of participation in the National Flood Insurance Program. Our intent is to reduce flood losses in accordance with the City's Floodplain Ordinance and participate in the Federal Emergency ANNEX I - 3 16F 4 Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy 2025 January 24,2025 Management Agency's Community Rating System (CRS) to lower insurance premiums for residents. Our staff works closely with residents, contractors, businesses, local, state, and federal agencies to facilitate cooperation and the exchange of information on floodplain management issues. Substantial Improvement and Substantial Damage Process Collier County and its jurisdictions participate in the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) and enforce regulations related to Substantial Improvement (SI) and Substantial Damage (SD) in accordance with NFIP guidelines and local floodplain management ordinances. These regulations are essential for ensuring compliance with FEMA requirements and reducing flood risk across the county. Substantial Improvement (SI): Substantial Improvement refers to any reconstruction, rehabilitation, addition, or other improvement to a structure, where the cost equals or exceeds 50% of the market value of the structure before construction begins. Collier County requires that all substantial improvement projects comply with current Florida Building Code and local floodplain management regulations to ensure resilience to future flood events. The SI process includes: • Submission of a building permit application with cost estimates from a licensed contractor. • Market value assessment using the Collier County Property Appraiser's valuation or an independent licensed appraisal. • Compliance with updated floodplain requirements, including elevation and floodproofing, if applicable. Substantial Damage (SD): Substantial Damage occurs when the cost of restoring a structure to its pre-damage condition equals or exceeds 50% of its market value, regardless of the cause (flood, fire, wind, etc.). Any structure determined to be substantially damaged within a Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA) must be brought into compliance with current floodplain management regulations. The SD process involves: • Post-disaster damage assessments conducted by Collier County in coordination with FEMA and state agencies. • Permit submission requirements similar to substantial improvements. • Compliance with elevation or retrofitting requirements to meet or exceed Base Flood Elevation (BFE) standards. Compliance and Enforcement: Collier County's Building Plan Review & Inspection Division oversees the administration and enforcement of SI/SD regulations. Property owners are required to ANNEX I - 4 16F 4 Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy 2025 January 24,2025 submit detailed repair/improvement plans for review and approval before commencing construction. Appeals regarding substantial damage determinations can be submitted to the Board of Building Adjustment and Appeals for further consideration. Challenges and Mitigation Strategies: To address potential gaps and challenges in the SI/SD process, Collier County is committed to: • Expanding public awareness efforts to inform residents of their responsibilities under NFIP regulations. • Seeking funding opportunities through FEMA programs such as the Flood Mitigation Assistance (FMA) and Building Resilient Infrastructure and Communities (BRIC) grants to support mitigation efforts. • Enhancing coordination with municipalities, including Naples, Marco Island, and Everglades City, to streamline floodplain management efforts. By incorporating the SI/SD process into floodplain management strategies, Collier County aims to ensure compliance with federal regulations while enhancing community resilience to flood hazards. While the fundamental SI/SD criteria are consistent across jurisdictions, variations exist in administrative procedures, documentation requirements, and enforcement practices. Each jurisdiction within Collier County enforces NFIP regulations through their respective floodplain management programs which may include: • Collier County: The Building Plan Review & Inspection Division administers floodplain management activities and ensures SI/SD compliance through the county's floodplain ordinance and permitting process. • City of Naples: The city's Building Department enforces SI/SD regulations and mandates compliance with local flood damage prevention regulations. Property owners are required to elevate structures to or above the designated BFE in cases of substantial improvement or damage. • City of Marco Island: The Growth Management Department oversees SI/SD compliance, incorporating public outreach efforts and enhanced regulatory enforcement within the community. • Everglades City: The Building Inspector manages floodplain regulations, with a focus on preserving the unique characteristics of the area while maintaining NFIP compliance. • Seminole Tribe of Florida: The Environmental Resource Management Department is responsible for floodplain management and compliance with NFIP standards within tribal lands. ANNEX I - 5 16F 4 Collier County Local Mitigation Strategy 2025 January 24,2025 Challenges and Coordination Efforts To ensure consistency in SI/SD determinations across jurisdictions, Collier County and its municipalities actively collaborate through: • Regular coordination meetings to discuss updates to floodplain regulations and best practices. • Public outreach programs to inform residents of the SI/SD process and compliance requirements. • Data sharing and technical assistance among jurisdictions to standardize documentation and streamline enforcement efforts. Understanding these jurisdictional nuances ensures a comprehensive approach to floodplain management and enhances Collier County's resilience to flooding events.
