SECTION 6: VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT6.15 TSUNAMIAlthough, historically there have been no occurrences of tsunamis in <strong>Volusia</strong> <strong>County</strong>, the potential exists.The likelihood is low, but the consequences would be catastrophic.Table 6.18 lists the number of people and improved parcels (properties with structures), the percentageof properties and the property values that are located in the tsunami inundation zone, based onMEMPHIS data. There were several gaps in the MEMPHIS data that excluded the barrier islands along theshoreline. These areas appeared to be susceptible to tsunami inundation and/or potential inhabitabilitydue to infrastructure loss in low lying areas. To be conservative, the analysis was performed byaccounting for these barrier island areas as well.TABLE 6.18: <strong>Volusia</strong> <strong>County</strong> Improved Property at Risk to TsunamiJURISDICTIONNUMBER OF PEOPLEAT RISKNUMBER OFIMPROVED PARCELSAT RISKPERCENTAGE OFIMPROVED PARCELSAT RISKVALUE OFIMPROVED PARCELSAT RISKDaytona Beach 45,910 12,841 68.46% 1,678,914,461Daytona BeachShores 4,343 536 100.00% 108,379,184De Bary 0 0 0.00% 0De Land 0 0 0.00% 0Deltona 0 0 0.00% 0Edgewater 19,504 9,354 99.99% 806,218,563Holly Hill 12,201 4,533 99.89% 429,857,493Lake Helen 0 0 0.00% 0New Smyrna Beach 20,791 10,110 91.30% 1,253,431,731Oak Hill 1,760 888 100.00% 67,557,864Orange City 0 0 0.00% 0Ormond Beach 28,559 11,384 73.30% 1,545,623,219Pierson 0 0 0.00% 0Ponce Inlet 2,513 1,102 100.00% 169,838,467Port Orange 30,218 11,397 55.80% 1,131,602,766South Daytona 13,453 4,548 99.87% 481,675,529Unincorporated 29,382 14,132 30.87% 1,347,435,508TOTAL 208,634 80,825 43.21% $9,020,534,785Source: MEMPHIS and <strong>Volusia</strong> <strong>County</strong> GIS Department<strong>Volusia</strong> <strong>County</strong> Multi-jurisdictional <strong>Local</strong> Mitigation StrategyFebruary 20106:34
