4 ATLANTIC BASIN SEASONAL HURRICANE FORECAST FOR 2010 Forecast Parameter and 1950-2000 Issue Date Issue Date Climatology (in parentheses) 9 December 2009 7 April 2010 Named Storms (NS) (9.6) 11-16 15 Named Storm Days (NSD) (49.1) 51-75 75 Hurricanes (H) (5.9) 6-8 8 Hurricane Days (HD) (24.5) 24-39 35 Major Hurricanes (MH) (2.3) 3-5 4 Major Hurricane Days (MHD) (5.0) 6-12 10 Accumulated Cyclone Energy (ACE) (96.1) 100-162 150 Net Tropical Cyclone Activity (NTC) (100%) 108-172 160

5 PROBABILITIES FOR AT LEAST ONE MAJOR (CATEGORY 3-4-5) HURRICANE LANDFALL ON EACH OF THE FOLLOWING COASTAL AREAS: 1) Entire U.S. coastline - 69% (average for last century is 52%) 2) U.S. East Coast Including Peninsula Florida - 45% (average for last century is 31%) 3) Gulf Coast from the Florida Panhandle westward to Brownsville - 44% (average for last century is 30%) PROBABILITY FOR AT LEAST ONE MAJOR (CATEGORY 3-4-5) HURRICANE TRACKING INTO THE CARIBBEAN (10-20°N, 60-88°W): 1) 58% (average for last century is 42%)

6 To reduce the impact of natural hazards on campus To develop a natural hazards mitigation plan that meets planning criteria outlined in 44 CFR, Part 201 To develop a model PDM planning process for a multi-campus university system To develop an innovative approach based on ASCE/ Building Security Council national standards To provide a mechanism to obtain FEMA Mitigation Project Grant funding for facility improvements PDM Planning - Goals

7 Wind (straight line and hurricane) Tornado Seismic/ earthquake Severe ice and/or snow Driving Rain Flood Wild fire or building fire Landslide Hazards included in Plan

8 Contacts for each campus core group have been recruited from emergency management, business continuity, capital planning, facilities management, security and emergency response, IT, parking and transportation, and other administrative offices Campus Core Groups – Eastern Campuses

9 UNC Pembroke - Core Planning Group Glen Burnette (chair)

10 UNC System-wide Planning and Technical Support Edd Hauser, Project Director David Weggel, Structural Engineer Sherry Elmes, PDM Planning Coordinator Zapata Engineering, On-site Technical Inspections Graduate Research Assistants in CEE, Geography/ GIS, and Public Policy

11 PDM Plans - Outline System-wide PDM Plan Campus PDM Plan Summary Campus Profile UFIS Model for identifying facilities at highest risk On – site detailed building inspections UFRAS Model for quantifying relative risk Campus review process Approvals and submittal to FEMA

12 Criteria for assessing facility risk Facility occupancy Emergency function of facility Impact of facility loss Impact of contents loss Relevance to business continuity Interconnectivity to adjacent infrastructure Value of research and/or administrative data (and animals) Historic or cultural value

13 North Carolina A&TAggie Village #3 NCCHEF #: 129 [See Appendix] Year Built: 2004 Intended Use: Student dormitory and classrooms Actual Use: Student dormitory and classrooms Construction Cost: $6,170,000 Present Value of Structure: $6,947,484 Present Value of Contents: $255,000 Number of Stories: 3 Square Footage (Conditioned): 60,495 Façade Constr. : Brick masonry and metal panel Roof Constr. : Single Structural System: Timber frame and shear wall Special Contents: Students Last Renovation: N/A Date Inspected: 30 July 2009 Facility Description Aggie Village is composed of several independent structures which serve as student dormitories and classrooms. Franklin McCain Hall (Aggie Village #1) is one of these buildings. The structure is timber framed shear and bearing wall construction with a brick masonry and metal panel façade. Windows are insulating glass units. The building has an emergency generator for life safety functions. The building is sprinklered and has a fire alarm system. The building is in very good condition as it was constructed within the last five years. Vulnerabilities/Risk  The life safety generator is not anchored to its foundation. Pine needles should be kept away from the base of the fuel tank to reduce the amount of moisture present, thereby slowing corrosion. (Photo 1)  The flashing where the roof meets firewalls appeared to be incorrectly installed. Facility personnel reported that the original contractor was working to correct the deficiency. (Photo 2)  The foam caulking of some exterior metal panels has fallen out, exposing joints to water intrusion. (Photo 3)  The building relies on electric heat pump units and students would have to be relocated in the event of a winter power outage. Mitigation Measures -- A: $100,000  The life safety generator and all vital mechanical equipment should be anchored to its foundation or the structure in compliance with building code. A  The roof flashing should be removed and correctly reinstalled to prevent water intrusion. C  The foam caulking between metal panels should be replaced where it is falling out. B  The building should have a larger emergency generator installed capable of providing a minimum level of cold weather environmental control. D

14 UNC Pembroke - Priority Facilities/Projects

15 UNC Pembroke - Internal Review Process Core Planning Group ( Associate Vice Chancellor - Facilities) Vice Chancellor for Business Affairs Chancellor

16 UNC Pembroke – External Review and Approval Process Campus Pre-disaster Mitigation/ Construct. Grants NC Division of Emergency Management (NCEM) FEMA Back to CAMPUS (not GA)

17 Recommendations to Business Affairs Approve the March 2010 Pre-Disaster Mitigation Planning document Request that the Chancellor approve the document and forward to President Bowles Examine the notion of assigning continuing responsibility for updating the PDM plan every two years Develop office for Emergency Planning and Emergency Management on continuing, fulltime basis Begin to actively engage in submitting Mitigation Project Grant applications through NCEM to FEMA
