Publisher's Synopsis
The inevitable re-occurrence of natural disasters, whatever their form may take, creates an urgent need for preparation. However, as these disasters are sporadic and their outcomes unpredictable, many of our communities face difficulties in utilizing lessons learned from prior disasters to create comprehensive recovery plans. With the knowledge gained from our own, and from others', experiences, Winsor Consult Group presents this book with the goal of encouraging communities to plan for faster, more efficient recoveries and to help others recover from any potential devastation with speed, efficiency and compassion.
This book outlines best practices and factors to consider when designing and implementing a disaster recovery plan. Since every disaster is unique, the recovery process must be tailored to meet the needs of the specific disaster and the community affected, while simultaneously complying with the regulations of federal, state and local governing agencies. Winsor Consult Group presents a framework for decision making, balancing the need for speed and accuracy with the limitations of cost and administrative burden.
