Public award description
THE PURPOSE OF THIS TASK ORDER IS TO REVISE AND UPDATE FEMAS WIND SHELTER PUBLICATIONS THAT SUPPORT FEMAS MISSION TO REDUCE THE LOSS OF LIFE AND PROPERTY THAT CAN OCCUR IN DISASTERS. THE GUIDANCE IN FEMA 320 TAKING SHELTER FROM THE STORM [1998 AND 1999 EDITIONS] AND FEMA 361 DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION GUIDANCE FOR COMMUNITY SHELTERS [2000] ARE WIDELY USED AND DISSEMINATED. SINCE PUBLISHING THESE DOCUMENTS, WE HAVE LEARNED ADDITIONAL LESSONS AND THE WIND RESEARCH COMMUNITY HAVE COME UP WITH NEW FINDINGS ON SOME OF THE CRITICAL ELEMENTS IN SHELTER DESIGN. THERE IS A NEED TO UPDATE FEMAS GUIDANCE SO THAT THE STATE OF THE ART AND BEST PRACTICES CAN CONTINUE TO BE COMMUNICATED AND IMPLEMENTED IN THE AREAS OR GREATEST RISK. A RELATED GUIDANCE DOCUMENT FROM FEMA, L-231 REDUCE YOUR RISK FROM NATURAL DISASTERS ALSO WILL NEED REVISION TO REMAIN CONSISTENT WITH THE NEW GUIDANCE.
