Climate Action Plans

Natural Hazard Mitigation Plans

When DLCD updates the Oregon Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan (NHMP), we collaborate with the Oregon Climate Change Research Institute (OCCRI) to provide more detailed information about how climate change is expected to influence natural hazards. We also collaborate with OCCRI when we update local NHMPs.

In 2017, the Oregon Climate Change Research Institute (OCCRI) studied how climate change is expected to influence natural hazards for eight counties in Oregon: Hood River, Gilliam, Wasco, Wheeler, Sherman, Lake, Malheur, and Harney. This study resulted in individual county-specific Future Climate Projections reports, a summary document of the county reports, a one-page information sheet, and a webinar.

Future Climate Change Projections to Support County Natural Hazard Mitigation Planning in Oregon

Individual County Reports (pdf):

In 2019, OCCRI studied how climate change is expected to influence natural hazards in Grant and Baker Counties. Both of these county-specific Future Climate Change Projections reports (pdf) have an executive summary that includes an overview and summary of the report. 

In 2020, OCCRI studied how climate change is expected to influence natural hazards in Umatilla, Clatsop, and Lincoln Counties. These county-specific Future Climate Change Projections reports (pdf) have an executive summary that includes an overview and summary of the full report.
