GOAL 7: AREAS SUBJECT TO NATURAL HAZARDS

GOAL 7: AREAS SUBJECT TO NATURAL HAZARDS

Statewide Planning Goal 7 requires the County to adopt inventories, policies and implementing measures to reduce risk to people and property from natural hazards.  For the purposes of Goal 7, “natural hazards” are:

  • floods
  • landslides
  • earthquakes
  • tsunamis
  • coastal erosion
  • wildfires

Local governments may also identify and plan for other natural hazards specific to their jurisdictions or geographic regions.  Clatsop County’s Goal 7 has not been updated since 2003.

There are no Oregon Administrative Rules (OAR) that implement Goal 7.
