FEMA Approved LMS Plan - Tampa Bay Regional Planning Council

The Hazards Vulnerability Analysis Matrix provides an overview of the probability, impact, frequency and distribution of natural hazards
within the County. The table below specifically identifies each jurisdiction and its vulnerability to specific hazards. In Pinellas County, the
primary difference in vulnerability relates to coastal vs. inland flooding. The table below color-codes the jurisdictions by location. Yellow
indicates a barrier island community; blue denotes jurisdictions on the mainland with significant coastal areas and more inland
communities subject only to inland flooding are coded green.
