2026 Multi-Jurisdictional Hazard Mitigation Plan (MJHMP) Update Adoption

The proposed project for purposes of this CEQA determination is Napa County's adoption of the 2026 MJHMP. The MJHMP was prepared as a multi-jurisdictional hazard mitigation planning document and is intended to satisfy applicable federal hazard mitigation planning requirements. The planning process includes hazard identification and mapping, risk and vulnerability assessment, review and compilation of existing environmental and infrastructure information, development of mitigation goals, and identification and prioritization of potential mitigation strategies and actions. These functions are analytical, informational, and policy-oriented. The 2026 MJHMP may identify future actions that participating agencies could elect to pursue. However, adoption of the MJHMP does not constitute approval of those future actions. The location, design, scope, funding, feasibility, permitting, and environmental effects of any future physical project would be determined through subsequent agency decisions. Where a future mitigation action is a CEQA project, the responsible lead agency would conduct the appropriate project-level CEQA review before approving or implementing that action.
