MITIGATION

Mitigation includes any activities that prevent an emergency, reduces the chance of an emergency happening, or lessen the damaging effects of unavoidable emergencies. Investing in preventive mitigation steps now such as strengthening unreinforced masonry to withstand wind and flooding and installing shutters on every window will help reduce the impact of hurricanes in the future.

The Village of East Rockaway Office of Emergency Management has created this website to provide you with information to help to reduce your risk from natural disasters.
