Thurston County Communities Natural Hazards and Resiliency Survey

How can we make Thurston County communities more disaster resilient? Over 20 local government agencies including the county, cities, schools, emergency services, transit, and other special purpose districts will evaluate strategies to reduce community risks from natural hazards such as earthquakes, floods, severe storms, and wildfires.

Your feedback on this survey will inform actions to be adopted by local governments to reduce losses. All responses will remain confidential.

This survey can be provided in alternate formats by contacting the
Thurston Regional Planning Council at 360.956.7575 or email info@trpc.org.
