2.4.6 Critical Facilities and Infrastructure<br />

An essential component of this Mitigation Plan is <strong>the</strong> inventory and identification of Wyandotte<br />

County’s critical facilities. The objective of <strong>the</strong> critical facilities inventory is to maintain<br />

information on buildings and support infrastructure that are vital to <strong>the</strong> response and recovery<br />

from a disaster in <strong>the</strong> community. While it is important to reduce or eliminate risks to various<br />

sites throughout Wyandotte County, <strong>the</strong>re are several types of structures that should be<br />

prioritized because damage to <strong>the</strong>se critical facilities can delay recovery, impact <strong>the</strong> delivery of<br />

vital services, cause greater damages to o<strong>the</strong>r sectors of <strong>the</strong> county, or can put special<br />

populations at risk. For <strong>the</strong>se reasons, emphasis on planning and protection of critical facilities<br />

is a priority for this mitigation plan. Wyandotte County’s critical facilities and infrastructure list<br />

are contained in Appendix C.<br />
