Phases of Emergency Management - Mitigation
Mitigation refers to activities which actually eliminate or reduce the chance of occurrence or the effects of a disaster. Examples include removing heavy snowfall or reinforcement of a roof to reduce structural damage from high winds, preventing use of hazardous areas such as flood plains, or adjusting the use of such areas by elevating structures to reduce the chance of flooded houses. Other examples include the Local Emergency Planning Committee of each Town.
