<br /> <br />• A new map overlays the areas of San Leandro potentially exposed to liquefaction, fault <br />rupture and earthquake-induced landslides. The 2015 plan also contains a new scenario <br />map for seismically-triggered landslide. <br /> <br />• The 2015 plan addresses fire following earthquake in greater detail: the plan describes <br />significant fires resulting from past earthquakes, causes of fire following earthquake, and <br />how earthquake impacts can impede firefighting efforts and promote fire spread. <br /> <br />• The seismic stability of City-owned and leased buildings has been updated to reflect <br />significant retrofit efforts since 2005. (This information is provided in greater detail in <br />Section 4.3 List of City Owned and Leased Buildings.) <br /> <br />• The City has updated the plan to describe San Leandro’s progress on mitigating <br />earthquake vulnerabilities in soft-story buildings. <br /> <br />Tsunami (Section 5.1.2) <br /> <br />The tsunami section describes recent tsunami events and their impacts on San Leandro. It <br />outlines the latest information about the tsunami hazard within the San Francisco Bay, and <br />provides an inundation map showing San Leandro’s tsunami exposure. <br /> <br />Rainfall-Triggered Landslide (Section 5.1.3) <br /> <br /> Rainfall-triggered landslide is addressed separately of earthquake-induced landslide. <br />Additional information has been provided to describe rainfall-triggered landslide and <br />debris flow. <br /> <br />Floods (Section 5.1.4) <br /> <br />The floods section has been rewritten for clarity. The 2015 plan also provides additional <br />information about floods caused by storm drain overflow. <br />. <br />Climate Change (Section 5.16, 5.1.7) <br /> <br />Climate change is a newly-introduced hazard of concern for the 2015 plan. The climate <br />change section describes the anticipated impacts to San Leandro from climate change. It <br />also outlines how climate change exacerbates other hazards identified in this plan. <br /> <br />Manmade Hazards <br /> <br />The focus of this mitigation plan is on natural hazards as emphasized in the Disaster <br />Mitigation Act of 2000 (DMA 2000).3 However, the plan also addresses several manmade <br />hazard such as climate change, and hazardous materials release newly-available maps and <br />information now allow us to identify potential climate change impacts, and to consider <br />related mitigation actions. Hazardous materials release is addressed in this mitigation plan <br />as a potential impact from a natural hazard. Terrorism is identified as a hazard of concern
