EPA’s new guidance, “Creating Disaster-Resilient Buildings to Minimize Disaster Debris,” provides practical actions communities can take to plan, design, improve, and adapt new and existing buildings to withstand natural disasters today and in a changing climate. Community leaders and members, planners, designers, builders, and disaster response experts can use this information to increase the resiliency of homes, businesses, and other buildings to the impacts of natural disaster hazards, including flooding, fire, and high winds.
