Environmental Conditions

Greenville, North Carolina is located in the Coastal Plain region of the state. This region of thestate borders the Atlantic Ocean and the land provides agricultural as well as manufacturingopportunities. The topography of the Coastal Plain can be seen as the result of erosion. This arearepresents a mixture of maritime, pine and hardwood forests. Located closest to the shore,Greenville is surrounded by lakes, wetlands and streams. The elevation is approximately 10meters and there are four distinct seasons. The winter season usually stays mildly cold becausethe mountains in the western region protect the majority of the state from harsh winters.Although the average temperature of a summer day is under 90 degrees Fahrenheit, the humidityintensifies the heat index. Since Greenville lies relatively close to the outer banks of NorthCarolina, the large body of water regulates the variability of drastic temperature changes. Theaverage annual rainfall is between 40 and 55 inches.

Hazard Mitigation Research, Plans, and Projects – East Carolina University (ECU) is broadlyinvolved in this Pre-Disaster Hazard Mitigation Planning project. This project, which is fundedby the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), has developed a Pre-DisasterMitigation (PDM) Planning Process for the UNC system as a whole, and for each of thecampuses in the system. In developing the PDM plan for ECU, other campus plans dealing withhazards, safety and security were utilized to enhance the comprehensive nature of the plan.

The integration of these plans has been and will continue to be implemented by the various,established committees that have the administrative responsibility for protecting the health andsafety of campus infrastructure as well as students, visitors, faculty and staff while on campus.These plans are listed above. This PDM plan for ECU contains natural hazard risk assessmenttools (UFIS and UFRAS) that can be utilized along with existing campus plans to aid decision-makers in protecting the campus’ most important assets from the effects of natural hazards. ThePDM plan is designed to be updated on a regular basis as conditions on the campus evolve overtime.

Hazard Profile

This hazard profile was compiled using the Pitt County Hazard Mitigation Plan. Within thissection, each hazard being addressed for this campus by the mitigation plan will be discussedusing the following rubric: hazard description, previous occurrences, likelihood of occurrence,range of impact, level of impact, and composite hazard index.

Page 22: East Carolina University Pre-Disaster Mitigation Plan ... · East Carolina University – Pre-Disaster Mitigation Plan – Campus Profile 5-2 Creating a strong, sustainable future

East Carolina University – Pre-Disaster Mitigation Plan – Campus Profile 5-22

Common hazard measurement scales for the likelihood of occurrence, range of impact, level ofimpact, and composite hazard index are shown below.

Likelihood of Occurrence1 – Unlikely – >1% annual probability2 – Possible – 1-10% annual probability3 – Likely – 10-100% annual probability4 – Highly Likely – 100% annual probability

Range of Impact1 – Small – >10% of the total jurisdiction area2 – Medium – 10-40% of the total jurisdiction area3 – Large – 40-100% of the total jurisdiction area

Level of Impact1 – Minor – Very few injuries, if any. Only minor property damage minimal

disruption on quality of life. Temporary shutdown of criticalfacilities.

2 – Limited – Minor injuries only. More than 10% of property in affected areadamaged or destroyed. Complete shutdown of critical facilitiesfor more than one day.

3 – Critical – Multiple deaths/injuries possible. More than 50% of property inaffected area damaged or destroyed. Complete shutdown ofcritical facilities for 30 days or more.

4 – Catastrophic – High number of deaths/injuries possible. More than 50% ofproperty in affected area damaged or destroyed. Completeshutdown of critical facilities for 30 days or more.

Composite Hazard IndexThe combined hazard index describes vulnerability in general terms of “low”, “moderate” or “high”hazard susceptibility. The index is created by adding the likelihood of occurrence, range of impact, andlevel of impact scores and is shown below.

Low – 3-5 composite scoreModerate – 6-8 composite scoreHigh – 9-11 composite score

Wind/HurricaneHurricanes are cyclonic low-pressure system storms that originate in tropical ocean waters, and are fueledby latent heat from the condensation of warm water. Hurricanes and tropical storms that affect NorthCarolina normally form in the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of western Africa between the months of Juneand November with the peak season occurring in early September. Hurricanes are classified using theSaffir-Simpson Hurricane Scale (SSHS), shown below.

Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Scale (SSHS)1 – 74-95 mph winds – Minimal Damage2 – 96-100 mph winds – Moderate Damage3 – 111-130 mph winds – Extensive Damage4 – 131-155 mph winds – Extreme Damage5 – 155+ mph winds – Catastrophic Damage

Likelihood of OccurrenceThe probability of the Pitt County area experiencing the effects of a hurricane, or tropical storm, can beclassified as “likely”.

Range of ImpactIf a hurricane or tropical storm were to occur, the entire Pitt County area would be subject to the effects ofthe storm, therefore the range of impact can be classified as “large”.

Level of ImpactThe probable level of impact of a hurricane or tropical storm in Pitt County can be classified as “limited”.

Composite Hazard IndexThe hazard index for hurricane impacts in Pitt County is “moderate” based on the probability ofoccurrence being “likely”, the “large” area that would be impacted, and the probable “limited” damageimpact. This hazard index of “moderate” for hurricanes indicates that this particular hazard poses arelatively large threat.

TornadoMany times severe storms, such as thunderstorms and hurricanes, can produce concentrated windstormscalled tornadoes. Tornadoes are violently rotating columns of air created where warm, moist airintersects with cold, dry air. Tornadoes have a much more localized impact than a hurricane ornor’easter and have been known to destroy one building while leaving a nearby building virtuallyunharmed. Tornadoes can produce a path of destruction from 0.01 mile wide to greater than 1 mile wide,but are generally less than 0.6 mile in width. In terms of length, paths of destruction vary from a fewhundred feet to several miles. The duration of a tornado is typically less than 30 minutes. The EnhancedFujita Scale for tornadoes was developed to measure tornado strength, and is shown below.

Enhanced Fujita Scale0 – 65-85 mph winds1 – 86-100 mph winds2 – 111-135 mph winds3 – 136-165 mph winds4 – 166-200 mph winds5 – 200+ mph winds

Likelihood of OccurrenceSince 1950, tornadoes have impacted Pitt County on average once every two years. This translates to a“possible” level of occurrence.

Range of ImpactTornadoes in Pitt County typically have a very localized effect over a “small” area.

Level of ImpactAlthough tornadoes occur on a fairly regular basis in Pitt County, there has only been one occurrence of alevel F4 tornado in the last fifty-three years. Forty-eight percent of tornado events have been at the F0level, thirty-one percent at F1, two percent at F2, one percent at F3 and one percent at F4, as well as tworemain unclassified. On average the probable level of impact of tornadoes in Pitt County can becategorized as “negligible”.

Composite Hazard IndexThe composite hazard index for tornadoes in Pitt County is categorized as “low” based on a “possible”occurrence, “small” range of impact, and, on average, “negligible” level of impact. This hazard index of“low” indicates that although tornadoes pose a threat, tornado impacts on average can be expected to beminor. Thus, local hazard mitigation efforts should address but not concentrate on this natural hazard.

Ice/SnowSevere winter weather is typically associated with much colder climates; however, in some instanceswinter storms do occur in the warmer climate of North Carolina. On occasion, Pitt County has hadmoderate winter weather as a result of a nor’easter originating in the Gulf Stream and producing frozenprecipitation. Winter storms can paralyze a community by shutting down normal day-to-day operations.Winter storms produce an accumulation of snow and ice on trees and utility lines resulting in loss ofelectricity and blocked transportation routes. Frequently, especially in rural areas, loss of electric powermeans loss of heat for residential customers, which poses an immediate threat to human life. Because ofthe rare occurrence of these events, central and eastern North Carolina communities are often notprepared because they cannot afford to purchase expensive road and debris clearing equipment for theserelatively rare events.

Likelihood of OccurrenceNorth Carolina averages more than one severe winter storm per year in the Coastal Plains area of theState. The likelihood of occurrence of a severe winter storm can be classified as “likely”.

Range of ImpactWhen severe winter storms do occur they typically impact a relatively large area or region of the State,thus the range of impact can be classified as “large”.

Level of ImpactSevere winter storms can have a tremendous impact on communities within the State, but they do nottypically result in more than “limited” impact.

Composite Hazard IndexThe hazard index for severe winter storms in Pitt County is categorized as “moderate” based on a “likely”occurrence, but “large” range of impact, and “limited” level of impact. This composite hazard index of“moderate” indicates that severe winter storms are a serious threat that should be addressed with localhazard mitigation initiatives where possible. Because of the regional impact of severe winter storms,however, many initiatives are more appropriately addressed and coordinated at the State level.

FloodFlooding is normally the result of a larger event such as a hurricane, nor’easter or thunderstorm, butflooding can be as frequent as the occurrence of a spring rain or a summer thunderstorm. Flooding iscaused by excessive precipitation and can be generally considered in two categories: flash floods andgeneral floods.

Flash floods are the product of localized, high-intensity precipitation over a small drainage basin in ashort time period. Flash floods, which typically occur more frequently than general floods, occur alongsmall streams and creeks. The undermining or washing out of roads is typically associated with flashfloods. General floods are caused by precipitation over a longer time period and over a given river basin.These larger storm events occur along the East Coast of the United States most often in the late summerand fall.

Likelihood of OccurrenceThe likelihood of localized flooding can be categorized as “highly likely” and area wide flooding as“likely”.

Range of ImpactFlooding is common to specific, known flood hazard areas where development can be controlled orlimited. The likely range of flood impact can be classified as “medium”.

Level of ImpactLocalized flooding has a “negligible” level of impact, whereas area wide flooding typically has a“limited” level of impact within Pitt County even though flooding associated with Hurricane Floyd inSeptember 1999 certainly had a critical impact on those properties and owners that were directly affected.

Composite Hazard IndexThe hazard index for floods in Pitt County is categorized as “moderate” based on a “likely to highlylikely” level of occurrence, “small” range of impact, and “limited” level of impact. This hazard indexindicates that floods should be a major focus of local hazard mitigation efforts.

WildfireWildfires occur in North Carolina during the dry spring and summer months. The potential for wildfiresdepends upon recent climate conditions, surface fuel characteristics, and fire behavior. In recent years,

Page 28: East Carolina University Pre-Disaster Mitigation Plan ... · East Carolina University – Pre-Disaster Mitigation Plan – Campus Profile 5-2 Creating a strong, sustainable future

East Carolina University – Pre-Disaster Mitigation Plan – Campus Profile 5-28

increased residential development has been occurring along the urban/rural interface where homes built inor near forests become susceptible to wildfire damage.

Previous OccurrencesAccording to data provided by the NC Division of Forestry, there is a five year average of just over 123wildfires per year in Pitt County.

Likelihood of OccurrenceBased on a 5 year average of 23 wildfires per year in Pitt County, wildfire events can be considered“likely”.

Range of ImpactWhen wildfires do occur they typically impact a relatively small area of land. The range of impact can beclassified as “small”.

Level of ImpactWildfires have a limited impact on the community so the level of impact can be classified as “limited” forPitt County.

Composite Hazard IndexThe hazard index for wildfires in Pitt County is categorized as “moderate” based on a “likely” occurrence,“small” range of impact, and “limited” level of impact. This hazard index of “moderate” indicates thatthe threat of wildfires warrants additional hazard mitigation activities beyond those already in place at theState level.

Services

Emergency Services – Pitt County Emergency Management consists of four divisions: 9-1-1Communications, Emergency Medical Services (EMS), Fire Marshal, and local EmergencyPlanning. Pitt County Emergency Management maintains a computerized registry for peoplewith special medical needs. Serving as the coordinating agency for emergency response in theevent of a disaster, Emergency Management maintains plans for coping with emergencies suchas tornados, hurricanes, floods, and nuclear accidents. The department works closely with theCounty and municipal fire departments and rescue squads. Emergency Management alsoenforces the Fire Prevention Code and conducts regular fire inspection programs of allbusinesses and places of assembly. Emergency Management staff members work closely withstate and local law enforcement agencies to combat arson and unlawful burning. EmergencyManagement responds to all incidents involving hazardous materials. Information regarding fire,emergency medical safety, and natural disasters is available. Additionally, EM issues permitsrequired for fireworks displays and permits required for the open burning of any vegetation.

Existing Hazard Mitigation Plans and Projects – Pitt County was awarded a $50,000 Pre-Disaster Mitigation Grant from FEMA to complete a required update to our MultijurisdictionalHazard Mitigation Plan. As part of this update, the Towns of Ayden, Falkland, Fountain, Griftonand Simpson are joining Pitt County, Bethel, Farmville and Winterville as plan participants.Staff, along with assistance from The Wooten Company, began working on the update in March.The updated plan was submitted to North Carolina Emergency Management (NCEM) for reviewin November. Once the plan has been approved by NCEM it will be forwarded along to FEMAfor final approval. The updated plan must be approved by FEMA by March 15, 2010. Thosecommunities that do not have an approved plan will not be eligible for future public assistanceand hazard mitigation funding.
