To quantitatively assess lifelines, the City of San Marcos is <br />evaluating known facilities and infrastructure to support each lifeline and conducting geographic <br />assessments of each with known hazard zones. The quantitative assessment is limited to flood <br />risks. A preliminary assessment of each lifeline by hazard is provided in this section using <br />vulnerability and consequence/impact assessments for each of the seven community lifelines. The <br />classifications of vulnerability and consequences are shown in Table 5 and Table 6, respectively. <br />These assessments are presented at the end of each hazard section. Consequence analysis may <br />include all components of a lifeline or be isolated to one or two components or subcomponents <br />that are critical in a given hazard condition. <br />Table 5 Vulnerability Classifications <br />Source: City of San Marcos OEM <br />Table 6 Consequence Classifications <br />Consequence <br />Description <br />Low Impact to <br />In the worst, most probable hazard situation, services and infrastructure are fully <br />Lifeline/Services <br />functioning within hours of onset of the hazard condition. <br />Moderate Impact to <br />In the worst, most probable hazard situation, services and infrastructure are functioning <br />Lifeline/Services <br />within days of onset of the hazard condition. <br />Significant Impact to <br />In the worst, most probable hazard situation, services and infrastructure are functioning <br />Lifeline/Services <br />within weeks of onset of the hazard condition. <br />Source: City of San Marcos OEM <br />12 <br />
