The entire county is vulnerable to the effects of heat wave. Data llimitations: Because of the timeframe and time limitations of this project, GIS analysis
in Jefferson County was conducted using an interim product/"work in progress" property map and database; due to georeferencing shortcomings and
attribute data limitations, results were incomplete. MDNR is updating Hazardous Waste Facilities locations and data.
