The Linn Benton Fire Protection Guide is commonly referred to as the "Driveway Standards", these guidelines are provided in good faith to assist building officials, contractors, designers, business owners, and the public with how local fire code officials will apply best practices that are considered to be in compliance with the intent of the Oregon Fire Code.

The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) defines mitigation as "any sustained action taken to reduce or eliminate long-term risk to life and property from a hazard event." The Benton County Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan was developed in an effort to reduce future loss of life and damage to property resulting from natural hazards.

By developing and maintaining an approved Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan we also stay compliant with State and Federal law and remain eligible to apply for pre-and post-disaster funding.

It is impossible to predict exactly when natural hazards events will occur, or the extent to which they will affect the community. But with careful planning and collaboration among public agencies, private sector organizations, and community members, it is possible to minimize the losses that can result from natural hazards.

The Benton County Natural Hazard mitication Plan can be found on the Benton County site, linked below:
