Enterprise Risk Management Emergency Management

I attached my final paper instructions. This is what you will be using I choose this facility and got it approved already.

Facility: Lincoln Tunnel

Top 1 disaster

1. Flooding

I will focus on flooding. The most recent flooding that happened in the Lincoln tunnel was caused by a water main rupture in a facility room.

A case study I found but you don’t have to use if you find something better is a study for Port of Miami Tunnel “Resiliency Through Flood Gates.” This study talks about building resilience to climatic risks and sea level predictions. It talks about how important flood gates are and the estimated amount of money you save by just having them if a flooding was to occur. The Lincoln tunnel has 44,600 pound flood gates as well, a water-tight barrier that seals the entire portal to the tunnels.
