All-Hazard Risk Assessment

A product/process which collects information and assigns values to risks and vulnerabilities of the Department's essential functions. All-hazards encompasses all conditions, environmental or manmade, that have the potential to cause injury, illness, or death; damage to or loss or equipment, infrastructure services, or property; or alternatively causing functional degradation to social, economic, or environmental aspects. These include accidents, technological events, natural disasters, space weather, domestic and foreign-sponsored terrorist attacks, acts of war, weapons of mass destruction (WMD), and chemical, biological (including pandemic), radiological, nuclear, or explosive (CBRNE) events. Assessments performed for other program requirements (safety and security) can be utilized.
