1.0 Jurisdiction Executive Summary Jurisdiction executive summaries highlight some of the background data gathered and analysis completed for the 2011 Richmond-Crater Multi-Regional Hazard Mitigation Plan Update with emphasis on the results from the Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment (HIRA). Additional details on the region, specifics on analysis methodologies and mitigation action details can be found in the Hazard Mitigation Plan. 1.1 Hazards The information below summarizes the effects of the region’s 10 top hazards on Sussex County. (1) Flooding (Significant Threat)
• Repetitive Loss Structures = 1; Severe Repetitive Loss Structures = 0; Number of Claims = 2; Total Building and Contents Payment on RL and SRL Properties = $21,877 (as of 3/22/2011)
• NFIP Flood Policies = 26; Insurance In-Force = $4,147,100; Number of Claims = 12; Total Building and Contents Payment on Claims = $47,630 (as of 2/28/2011)
• There are eight critical facilities located in the floodplain. • High Prone Flood Areas =
o All of Sussex County falls within the $0-$10,000 annualized flood damages category, with the worst damages occurring in the center of the county along the Nottoway River and Rowanty Creek.
o Blackwater River along the northeast boundary and Three Creek along the southwest boundary also contribute to annual flood damages;
o The towns of Jarratt, Stony Creek, Wakefield, and Waverly all suffer minimal flood damages well below $10,000.
Critical Facilities: Eight critical facilities are located within mapped floodplains. For this analysis, critical facilities are defined as a facility in either the public or private sector that provides essential products and services to the general public, is otherwise necessary to preserve the welfare and quality of life in the County, or fulfills important public safety, emergency response, and/or disaster recovery functions. Critical facilities examined for Sussex County fall into ten categories including; Medical Facilities/Hospitals, Police Stations, Airports, VDOT Fuel Tanks, VDOT Facilities, E911 Centers, Fire/EMS Stations, Cell/Radio Towers, Utilities, and Public Schools.
Richmond-Crater Multi-Regional Hazard Mitigation Plan
1-2
Significant Historical Events: Several severe flooding events have had a widespread impact in Sussex County; these include: • September 2003: Hurricane Isabel: During the storm event 1,000 residents
sought shelter. Route 460 was closed. Waverly lost power for several weeks. • November 1985: Significant rainfall in western Virginia produced landslides
and flooding, and both the James and Appomattox Rivers swelled from the runoff. The James River was 24 feet above flood level and the Appomattox River had crested at 10 feet. Flooding closed Halifax Road and Cedar Road in Stony Creek and Rt. 40; as well as destroying several fields and caused numerous potholes.
Additional information on flooding can be found in Section 5.6, starting on page 5-9.
(2) Wind (Moderate Threat) This category includes hurricane, thunderstorm
and tornado winds. • Total tornado touchdowns reported at 5 for past 60 years; 1-F3, 1-F2, 2-F1 and
1-F0 • Annualized losses from tornado wind events = $38,289 • Annualized losses from hurricane wind events = $57,071 • Annualized losses from thunderstorm and other wind events (excluding
tornadoes and hurricanes) = $446. Significant Historical Events: Wind events have had a widespread impact in Sussex County; these include: • September 1999: Hurricane Floyd: Wakefield received 12.73 inches of rain.
This event caused the greatest flooding in 60 years. 200 people were evacuated from Stony Creek where homes and businesses were partially submerged by the rising Nottoway River. Portions of Waverly and Wakefield were completely flooded. US Route 460 had a massive sinkhole and other portions were flooded. Roads were washed out on Harrell’s Mill Road and Brittle’s Mill Road. I-95 was closed. Crop damages estimated at $1 million in Sussex County.
• September 1996: A severe storm entered Virginia, producing heaving winds gusting between 40 and 50 mph. Damages were not as large as expected and were caused mostly from high winds, uprooting trees which fell onto homes, trailers, roads and disrupting power and telephone service. 300 acres of crops were damaged from flooded fields.

1-3
• August 1993: In Sussex County, a tornado in Waverly snapped and uprooted trees, damaged homes and buildings from one end of town to the other. A peanut warehouse on Route 460 was destroyed. Power was disrupted in Stony Creek and Waverly.
• August 1933: High winds from a tropical storm blew off several roofs. One-fourth of the trees were uprooted in Stony Creek.
Additional information on wind can be found in Sections 5.7, 5.8 and 5.9, starting on pages 5-9, 5-50, and 5-91, respectively.
(3) Winter Weather (Moderate Threat)
• 18 National Weather Service Alerts during past 5 years for winter weather • Annualized all winter weather losses = $40,656.
Significant Historical Events • January 1996: From January 6 through January 15, two snow storms, striking
first from the south and then from the north produced large and prolonged snowfall. More than 14 inches of snow fell in the County.
• January 1977: Several weeks of ice, snow (11.1 inches) and record low temperatures produced one of the coldest winter seasons. This event caused numerous accidents, with several pedestrian injuries and several drowning deaths.
Additional information on winter weather can be found in Section 5.10, starting on page 5-95.
(4) Thunderstorm (Moderate Threat)
• Annualized losses from thunderstorms including hail and lightning = $446 • The NCDC database shows that at least two people in the region have been
killed and three others injured as a result of lightning since 1993. None of these people were in Sussex County.
Significant Historical Events • May 2003: Hail larger than softballs (approx. 4.25 inches) caused an estimated
$15,000 in damage near Jarratt.
Additional information on thunderstorms can be found in Section 5.9, starting on page 5-91.
Richmond-Crater Multi-Regional Hazard Mitigation Plan
1-4
(5) Drought (Moderate Threat) • Annualized losses from drought = $452 • An extended period of abnormally dry weather occurred over a period of four
years, from 1998 to 2002. • This period saw rainfall levels well below normal and caused many
communities throughout the state to institute water restrictions. • Value of agricultural products sold (in $1,000) in Sussex County are $16,947.
Significant Major Events: • 2007: Unusually dry conditions persisted through a significant portion of the
year through much of southern and central Virginia. Virginia as a whole experienced its tenth driest year on record.
• December 2001 – November 2004: Beginning in the winter of 2001, the mid-Atlantic began to show long-term drought conditions. The National Weather Service made reports of moisture starved cold fronts that would continue throughout the winter. Stream levels were below normal with record lows observed at gages for the York, James, and Roanoke River Basins. By November 2002, the US Secretary of Agriculture had approved 45 counties for primary disaster designation, while 36 requests remained pending.
• June – November 1998: A heat wave over the southeast produced warm and dry conditions over much of Virginia. Unusually dry conditions persisted through much of the fall. The drought produced approximately $38.8 million in crop damages over portions of central and south-central Virginia.
• November 1976 – September 1977: Ten months of below average precipitation. The drought began in November of 1976 when rainfall totaled to only 50 to 75% of normal amounts. During the rest of the winter, storms that normally would bring moisture to the area tracked across the gulf. During the spring and summer, the storms tracked across the Great Lakes. These weather patterns created significant drought throughout most of Virginia.
Additional information on drought can be found in Section 5.11, starting on page 5-109.
(6) Wildfire (Limited Threat)
• Annualized losses from wildfire = $8,003 • Total acres burned in Sussex County (1995-2008) = 1,175.1 • Total dollar damage in Sussex County (1995-2008) = $104,040 • Annualized number of events = 11.85 • 1 woodland community in high fire rank • 43 homes in woodland communities in high fire rank

Critical Facilities: Eight critical facilities are located within high potential wildfire areas. For this analysis, critical facilities are defined as a facility in either the public or private sector that provides essential products and services to the general public, is otherwise necessary to preserve the welfare and quality of life in the County, or fulfills important public safety, emergency response, and/or disaster recovery functions. Critical facilities examined for Sussex County fall into ten categories including; Medical Facilities/Hospitals, Police Stations, Airports, VDOT Fuel Tanks, VDOT Facilities, E911 Centers, Fire/EMS Stations, Cell/Radio Towers, Utilities, and Public Schools. Significant Major Events: Within Sussex County, wildfires have been experienced every year; counts are provided by year below. • 2008 – 8 • 2007 – 13 • 2006 – 10 • 2005 – 13 • 2004 – 7
• 2003 – 4 • 2002 – 9 • 2001 – 21 • 2000 – 2 • 1999 – 12
• 1998 – 13 • 1997 – 11 • 1996 – 9 • 1995 – 22
Additional information on wildfire can be found in Section 5.13, starting on page 5-117.
(7) Earthquake (Limited Threat)
• Annualized losses from earthquake = $15,079 • Significant earthquakes were first recorded in Virginia in 1774. Virginia has
had over 160 earthquakes since 1977, of which 16% were felt. This averages to approximately one earthquake every month, with two felt each year.
• There have been five significant earthquakes centered in the region.
Additional information on earthquake can be found in Section 5.16, starting on page 5-141.
(8) Landslide and Shoreline/Coastal Erosion (Limited Threat)
• The greatest landslide hazards are found in the higher elevations of western and southwestern Virginia. Analysis of the hazard here is limited by the availability of data. There is no comprehensive database documenting all landslide occurrences within the Commonwealth.
Additional information on landslide and shoreline/coastal erosion can be found in Section 5.14, starting on page 5-132.
Richmond-Crater Multi-Regional Hazard Mitigation Plan
1-6
(9) Land Subsidence/Karst/Sinkholes (Limited Threat) • According to the Virginia State Hazard Mitigation Plan, there have been no
Federal Declared Disasters or NCDC recorded events for karst related events in the Commonwealth. Land subsidence is very site-specific. There is no comprehensive long-term record of past events in Virginia.
Additional information on land subsidence/karst/sinkholes can be found in Section 5.15, starting on page 5-138.
(10) Mass Evacuation (Moderate Threat)
• Mass evacuations from urban areas can strain a community’s resources and cause gridlock on major transportation routes, overcrowding of hospitals and shelters, and increased load on local utility infrastructures leading to potential failure.
Additional information on mass evacuation can be found in Section 5.12, starting on page 5-115.
