B.) PROFILE
Population
200,600 (estimated 2010 U.S. Census)
Location
Broome County is located in south-central New York State directly north of the Pennsylvania border inthe area known as the Southern Tier. The county has a total area of 715 square miles, and is located at theintersection of major north-south (I-81 and I-88) and east-west (I-86/Route 17) interstate highways. TheCity of Binghamton is the county seat. Broome County is home to Binghamton University (one of theSUNY schools), Broome Community College, and Davis College.Geography / Climate
The majority of northern and western Broome County is part of the Susquehanna River Basin (whicheventually drains into the Chesapeake Bay), and includes both the Susquehanna and Chenango Riverswhich join near downtown Binghamton. A small eastern portion of the County is within the DelawareRiver Basin which drains east towards the Catskill Mountains and eventually into Delaware Bay.Broome County is predominantly formed by the major river valleys with rolling and hilly terrain as youmove further away from the river basins. The furthest eastern area of the county encompasses thebeginning of the Catskill Mountains.
Annual precipitation includes an average rainfall of 37-inches and an average snowfall of 58-inches. Theaverage number of days with measureable precipitation is 149, with an average high temperature in Julyof 81°F, and an average low temperature in January of 16°F.
Brief History
Broome County was once part of the vast Albany County, created in 1683. After several County divisionsthe present day Broome County split off from Tioga County in 1806. Broome County was establishedand was named in honor of John Broome, who was the New York State Lieutenant Governor at the time.

Governing Body Format
The governing body of the County consists of a County Executive and a County Legislature with onerepresentative from each of 15 districts. An elected Clerk also serves the County. Home rule is strong inNew York State and thus, each town and village has its own governing body. Towns are made up of aTown Board and Supervisor. Villages generally have a Mayor, Clerk, and Board. The City of Binghamtonconsists of a Mayor and City Council, along with a City Clerk.
Along with town and village roads, public water and sewer systems are predominantly owned andoperated by the local municipality, though they cooperate with County departments frequently. Throughtheir municipal codes each municipality has control over its own planning and zoning laws, but manyutilize County planning and engineering personnel as a resource.
The County, as a governing entity, does not enact planning and zoning ordinances or other local land usecontrol regulations. However, the County does review development proposals that qualify under NewYork State General Muncipal Law 239 which requires that certain types of municipal planning, zoningand subdivision projects be referred to the County prior to local action being taken.
Growth/Development Trends
The following table summarizes major residential/commercial development and major infrastructuredevelopment that are identified for the next five (5) years in the County. Those items listed with bold textare projects that the County (as an independent governing body) is planning. Other items listed aregeneral growth/development trends expected within various municipalities. Refer to the map in section I.)of this annex which illustrates the hazard areas along with the location of potential new development.

Firewise NP
N/A = Not applicable. NP = Not participating. - = Unavailable.
The classifications listed above relate to the community’s effectiveness in providing services that mayimpact it’s vulnerability to the natural hazards identified. These classifications can be viewed as a gaugeof the community’s capabilities in all phases of emergency management (preparedness, response,recovery and mitigation) and are used as an underwriting parameter for determining the costs of variousforms of insurance. The CRS class applies to flood insurance while the BCEGS and Public Protectionclassifications apply to standard property insurance. CRS classifications range on a scale of 1 to 10 withclass one (1) being the best possible classification, and class 10 representing no classification benefit.Firewise classifications include a higher classification when the subject property is located beyond 1,000feet of a creditable fire hydrant and is within 5 road miles of a recognized Fire Station.
Criteria for classification credits are outlined in the following documents:
" The Community Rating System Coordinators Manual
" The Building Code Effectiveness Grading Schedule
" The ISO Mitigation online ISO’s Public Protection website athttp://www.isomitigation.com/ppc/0000/ppc0001.html
" The National Weather Service Storm Ready website athttp://www.weather.gov/stormready/howto.htm

F. MITIGATION STRATEGY
F.1) Past Mitigation Actions/Status
The County noted that the 2007 Hazard Mitigation Plan is referenced in all plans that are developed bythe County Planning Department. The 2007 HMP will also be incorporated in the County ComprehensivePlan, currently in development.
Other mitigation projects/activities that have been completed in Broome County include flood mitigationprojects on many road and structure components, including mitigation as well as repair. For example:
" At structures (bridges and culverts) where stone scour protection exists, we have repaired anydislocated stone, but also added drilling and pinning with rebar to keep the rock in place during thenext event.
" At structures where no rock existed prior to the flooding and where erosion occurred, the County hasadded drilled and pinned extra-heavy rock as a repair and as future protection against erosion andscour.

" Where scour and erosion has created plunge pool at outlets – which threaten to undermine culverts orwingwalls, we have repaired these with dumped rock (riprap) or in some cases extra-heavy stone tominimize chances of future damage.
" Where structure integrity is compromised due to scour and embankment loss behind wingwalls, extra-large stone repairs with drilling and pinning have been completed to protect the structure againstfuture flooding.
" In areas of significant embankment loss, we have put in armored slope protection, or constructed rockwalls to provide permanent stabilization instead of simple earthen slopes which could potentially failduring another flood event.
" Flood stage maps acquired for GIS.
" Secure updates of topographic mapping by LIDAR.
" Completed stormwater outfall mapping for all MS4 municipalities.
" Participated in the Floodplain Remapping process with FEMA and NYSDEC by assisting andorganizing outreach efforts to affected residents and municipal representatives. Maps were put onhold while FEMA updates its methodology. Will continue to assist when the process is resumed.
Other mitigation projects/activities that are planned or ongoing in Broome County include:
" Flood extents for 2006 and 2011 were acquired for GIS.
" All flood mapping has been made available to the public via online GIS.
" Initiate and complete an inventory of localized flooding and drainage issues, along with developingmitigation strategies for three key areas through a grant received through the NYS Department ofState Local Waterfront Redevelopment Program.
" Increasing communication and cooperation between county and local public works and highwaydepartments so emergency response is more efficient and coordinated. Communication betweenmunicipalities through groups such as the Flood Task Force, Local Emergency Planning Committeeand the Broome-Tioga Stormwater Coalition. Efforts have been made to start a DPW or HighwaySuperintendents roundtable meeting every few months to increase communication but this has notstarted yet.
" Utilization of early warning and evacuations systems, including NY Alert and reverse 911, forreducing loss to life and property by giving people time to move personnel property and possessionsto safety or to evacuate to safe areas.
" Maintain database of ARC shelters and provide to public via GIS.
" Maintain and encourage working relationships with ARC. Participate in table top exercises dealingwith human needs such as sheltering and evacuations.
" Continue training in the National Incident Command System (ICS), under the National IncidentManagement System (NIMS).
" Continue support of the Local Emergency Planning Committee (LEPC) and coordinate the hazardmitigation plan update with efforts of the LEPC.
" Review existing local plans and efforts to ensure consistency with this plan’s goals and objectives,and integrate the goals, objectives, and activities from this plan into existing regulatory documentsand programs, where appropriate (including zoning ordinances, building codes, and land usepolicies).

" Develop an emergency management website that would provide information for public officials,emergency responders, and residents.
" Continue review of water level data during critical periods (spring, major storm events).
" Discourage development in hazard prone areas through 239 review process.
" Encourage the reduction of impervious surfaces through the comprehensive plan technical assistanceprocess.
" Continue the annual River Bank clean-up.
" Encourage adoption of zoning ordinances at the local level that ensure developments served byprivate wells have adequate well recharge area.
" Review development plans through the 239 review process to ensure adequate water resources areavailable.

F.2) Hazard Vulnerabilities Identified
The County identified certain hazard problems and problem areas where it has suffered damages/lossesdue to natural hazards. These problems and problem areas include:
A. County roads and infrastructure (bridges, culverts, closed drainage systems and roadembankments).
B. Infrastructure damages due to flooding:
1. Embankment erosion and collapse
2. Bridge and culvert scour along footers, around wingwalls, and at inlet/outlet structures.
3. Structure and road collapse due to loss of fines in bedding materials.
It is estimated that in Broome County, 63,989 residents live within the 1% annual chance flood area(NFIP Special Flood Hazard Area). Of the County's total land area, 5.4% is located within the 1% annualchance flood area. $4,778,613,278 (11.3%) of the County's general building stock replacement cost value(structure and contents) is located within the 1% annual chance flood area.
There are 3,040 NFIP policies in the County. There are 626 policies located within the 1% annual chanceflood area (based on preliminary maps as noted in the methodology in Section 5.1 of this Plan). FEMAhas identified 318 Repetitive Loss (RL) including 57 Severe Repetitive Loss (SRL) properties in thecounty’
Policies, claims, repetitive loss and severe repetitive loss statistics provided by FEMA Region 2, in April2012. These statistics are current as of January 31, 2012. Please note the total number of repetitive lossproperties includes the severe repetitive loss properties.
Further information regarding the community’s participation in the NFIP is provided in the table below.

Explanation of Priorities
High Priority = A project that meets multiple objectives (i.e., multiple hazards), benefits exceedscost, has funding secured or is an on-going project and project meets eligibility requirements forthe Hazard Mitigation Grant Program (HMGP) or Pre-Disaster Mitigation Grant Program (PDM)programs. High priority projects can be completed in the short term (1 to 5 years).
Medium Priority = A project that meets goals and objectives, benefits exceeds costs, funding hasnot been secured but project is grant eligible under, HMGP, PDM or other grant programs.Project can be completed in the short term, once funding is completed. Medium priority projectswill become high priority projects once funding is secured.
Low Priority = Any project that will mitigate the risk of a hazard, benefits do not exceed the costsor are difficult to quantify, funding has not been secured and project is not eligible for HMGP orPDM grant funding, and time line for completion is considered long term (1 to 10 years). Lowpriority projects may be eligible other sources of grant funding from other programs. A lowpriority project could become a high priority project once funding is secured as long as it could becompleted in the short term.
Prioritization of initiatives was based on above definitions: Yes
Prioritization of initiatives was based on parameters other than stated above: Not applicable.
H.) FUTURE NEEDS TO BETTER UNDERSTAND RISK/VULNERABILITY
Studies and investigations have been included in Table F-3 (Proposed Hazard Mitigation Initiatives)which will assist Broome County in identifying needs, risks, and vulnerabilities of County infrastructureand flood control structures.
I.) HAZARD AREA EXTENT AND LOCATION
A hazard area extent and location map has been to illustrate the probable areas impacted within BroomeCounty and is provided on the next page. This map is based on the best available data at the time of thepreparation of this Plan, and is considered to be adequate for planning purposes. Maps have only beengenerated for those hazards that can be clearly identified using mapping techniques and technologies, andfor which the County has significant exposure. The Planning Area maps are provided in the hazardprofiles within Section 5.4, Volume I of this Plan and in the municipal annexes in Section 9 of this plan.
