3 hazards · Infrastructure and technology

3 hazards in Infrastructure, their national losses, and how we'd assess them for your jurisdiction.

Utility outages, transportation incidents and structural collapse. Power, water, fuel and telecom are one hazard with five parts because an outage is measured in who goes without; a derailment, a crash and a downed span are measured in what stops moving.

Impact
5432112345

Likelihood

Likelihood
4

Likely — Expected within the decade — roughly once in 1 to 10 years (10–100% chance in any year).

Impact
4

Major — Severe effects — casualties possible, serious damage across a significant share of the jurisdiction, essential services disrupted for weeks, outside assistance needed.

Readiness
2

Low — Some elements of capability are in place, but important gaps remain that could significantly limit the organization's ability to perform effectively. Additional development is needed before the capability can be relied upon.

The 3 hazards in Infrastructure

How we can help

How we’d help you prepare for Infrastructure

  1. 1

    We pull who depends on it

    HHS emPOWER counts of electricity-dependent residents and the Census profile of your county, gathered before we meet.

  2. 2

    We read your continuity plans

    Your EOP, continuity and mass-care material, so what they say about Infrastructure is cited and the gaps are visible.

  3. 3

    You leave with a cited brief

    Likelihood, impact and readiness for Infrastructure on your own scale, with each figure tied to its source. It is ready for your planning team or council.

Preparing for Infrastructure

Prepare for Infrastructure with the people it would reach in view.

Outages, corridor incidents and structural failures are measured in who goes without and what stops moving. We put your plans next to the residents and systems they depend on. We reply within one business day.
