Threat and Hazard Descriptions

Threat/Hazard Group

Threat/Hazard Type

Natural

Wildfire

Description 1: Hoopa Valley Indian Reservation fuel loading is increased by 150% from long-term

drought that weakens Klamath Mountain region conifer forests around reservation now thick with

standing dead from bark beetle infestation. A severe winter storm intensifies and unleashes a

blowdown producing over 50,000 acres of severe fire hazard. Within 3 years, complex fires fueled by

returning El Nino heat accompanied with high winds and thunderstorms developed into four major fires

devouring over 200,000 acres of public lands surrounding Hoopa Valley Indian Reservation. The

normal 22 µg (micrograms) PM10 is increased to over 1000 µg as the normal coastal inversion layer

holds the intense smoke in the lower atmosphere of the Hoopa Valley Indian Reservation requiring full

evacuation of vulnerable populations and shelter in place assistance for others

Description 2:

Forest management policies, on public lands, are hindered with delays, fueled by endangered species

and critical habitat disagreements, leaving conifer forests surrounding the Hoopa Valley Indian

reservation unmanaged. Long term drought enables dry vegetation inviting intense wildfire. Any

incident will quickly deplete resources and mutual aid resources are unavailable or severely limited

during fire season, if there is an ongoing wildfire incident, or if accessibility into Hoopa Valley Indian

Reservation(by roads or air) is reduced due to incident type (flood, landslide, earthquake, hazardous

materials or major conflagration). Response crews must coordinate operations and logistics within

Hoopa Valley Indian Reservation; however, due to (1) one-way in and (1) one-way out traffic flow,

progress is very slow.

Natural

Flood

Description 1:

In 24 hours, a total of (5) five inches of unseasonably warm rain falls above the 5000 feet elevation

mark in late December. The intense rainfall continues for (7) seven days totaling over 30 inches.

Unmapped flood hazard areas are damaged with snow melt and flood waters. Post-flood damage

assessment reveal: road washout; damage to water and sewage treatment facilities, communications,

and public buildings. Flood causes a loss of 4,000 head of cattle. The demolished bridge and washed

out embankment cause disruption in transportation of basic supplies and consumable medical

supplies. Response crews must coordinate operations and logistics within Hoopa Valley Indian

Reservation; however, due to (1) one-way in and (1) one-way out traffic flow, progress is very slow.

Description 2:

Post wildfire, a large burn scar with hydrophobic soil causes runoff to be 100 times greater than usual.

Normal levels are 50 cfs (cubic feet per second) which become 5000 cfs. Flood waters, sediment and

rocks combine to create a hazardous debris flow. The viscous, dense mixture carries large rocks and

damages bridges, roadways, collapses and damages public buildings. The demolished Trinity River

bridge and washed out embankment cause disruption in transportation of basic supplies and

consumable medical supplies. The debris flow also severely damages the Julius Marshall Water

Treatment Facility, the regions only resource for potable water. Potable water will not be available for a

considerable amount of time as the Trinity River is the only source along with the water treatment

facility. Response crews must coordinate operations within Hoopa Valley Indian Reservation; however,

due to (1) one-way in and (1) one-way out movement, progress is very slow.

Technological

Dam Inundation

Description 1:

There are (2) two dams, the Lewiston and the Trinity, upstream from Hoopa Valley Indian Reservation.

Dam inundation of any of these large capacity storage dams would flood and destroy the valley. The list

of secondary effects include: damaged buildings, bridges collapse, building collapse, communication

and power interruption, roadway collapse, partial or total evacuation, hazardous and biological

materials release and landslides.

Human-caused

Illegal Marijuana Cultivation - Arson

Description 1: During 4th of July celebrations, illegal marijuana growers detonate a firebomb in

competitor’s field. The dry forest slopes from a long-term drought, catch fire and quickly spread in the

rough terrain to over 10,000 acres of forest slopes and populated areas in the northwestern portion of

the reservation. The fire and smoke causes evacuation of entire community of Hoopa Valley Indian

Reservation, closes down State route 96, burns structures, disrupts communication networks, and

damages critical infrastructure and key resources (CIKR). Debris flow are expected in the upcoming

winter months and until region can be stabilized.

Description 2: Marijuana growers set up a large burn pile to get rid of evidence of illegal activities

including a body of a missing tourist who accidentally walked into their fields. A stray spark blows

into a storage area containing potential accelerants and creates a larger out of control fire. Due to

drought conditions and high winds of late August the fire quickly becomes a complex wild land fire on

tribal lands with an urban interface that affects the entire Hoopa Valley Indian Reservation population

and. The fire burns several structures and causes a severe smoke issues which forces evacuation of

the entire Hoopa Valley Indian Reservation community as well as the need for emergency services

for those suffering from respiratory stress and/or cannot evacuate.

Human-caused

Illegal Marijuana Cultivation – Hazardous

Materials

Description 1: A medicinal/ceremonial plant collection trip by tribal members turns into an active

shooter situation upon the group stumbling into an active illegal marijuana field. There are injuries and

possible hostages as situation escalates. Whether planned or on accident chemicals (herbicides,

pesticides, rodenticides and unknowns) as well as diesel are spilled and making their way into the

local streams and Trinity River directly threatening local and downstream drinking commercial use

water. This creates a hazmat scene causing the evacuation of downwind population as a precaution.

Due to unknown nature of spill and active shooter situation, main roads are closed causing delay of

key resources.

Description 2: A rental truck carrying an illegal load of ammonium nitrate (fertilizer) for illegal marijuana

fields trying to outrun the police crashes inside city limits killing the driver. Emergency and Fire respond to

contain the resulting fire without knowing the trucks contents. The ammonium nitrate subsequently explodes

destroying a police cruiser and fire engine as well as killing 1 police officer and 3 firemen. The resulting

explosion destroys phone lines, power substation (spraying and igniting transformer oil) as well as

destroying California State Route 96. The concussive blast also breaks windows and collapses a wall at

the nearby Baptist church causing injuries. The transformer oil acts as an accelerant quickly igniting nearby

grass, structures and trees starting a fire which has the potential to grow quickly.

road closures due to incident. Execute mitigation planning and annual exercise to examine

security and resilience of supply chains to support community requiring food, consumable

medical supplies and other commodities due to lack of services, loss of residence, or as

visitors or commuters stranded by a potential incident. Prioritize top lifelines (water, power,

fuel, natural has, transportation, communications) to assist in the re-establishment of essential

services and movement of critical resources. Examine supply chains used by first responders

to ensure they can focus on provide aid to the public. Maintain collaborative relationship with

laboratory systems equipped for rapid identification of select agents in order to determine

whether products or animals are free from these agents and to assist in response of outbreaks

in animal disease or appearance of contamination in high-risk food products.

Implement a community resiliency strategy to coordinate public information to support

Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) and TEEN CERT; volunteer shelter

programs; and establish a community information system for mitigation and response,

including how to prepare residences to reduce risk and improve resiliency for all identified

hazards. Implement these community resiliency building activities through partnerships with

whole community and Tribal, State and Federal agency representatives. Implement exercise

plans coordinating communities, before, during and after an incident to prevent and mitigate

emergencies, expedite response activities, maximize resources, and facilitate a return to

normalcy. Establish partnerships in order to promote key relationships with private industry
