Sedgwick County Hazards Analysis Plan

The Sedgwick County Hazards Analysis Plan has recently been revised.  The purpose of a hazards analysis plan is to identify the potential hazards facing a community whether they are natural, technological or national security related. The plan follows a three-step, decision-making process and is designed to consider all potential hazards within the planning district and to identify which hazards are of high priority and should be addressed in the emergency planning process.

Our Mission: The Sedgwick County Emergency Management Department exists to help citizens and local governments mitigate against, prepare for, respond to and recover from all types of emergencies and disasters (natural, technological, and national security).
