Hazard Mitigation Committee

Hazard Mitigation Committee

The Plainfield Hazard Mitigation Committee meets every third Thursday of the month at 7:00 PM at the Town Office. The Hazard Mitigation Committee's goal include providing the Select Board with information and suggestions to reduce or eliminate the long-term risks to human life and property in Plainfield from fluvial erosion/landslide, flash floods/floods, Marshfield dam releases or failure, winter storms, long-term electric outages, hazardous waste spills, forest fires, and other identified hazards. The committee gathers information and develops long term recommendations to mitigate the impact of future flood and other hazardous events on public safety and infrastructure.
