2024 Hennepin County All -Jurisdiction Hazard Mitigation Plan <br />Volume 2 — Hazard Inventory <br />barriers, strip cropping, or clod -producing tillage. <br />4.3.9.13. Response <br />One of the most important things to be done during the initial response is to make sure that people are <br />safe. The role of Hennepin County Emergency Management is to coordinate resources that our <br />municipalities may need to accomplish all response needs. <br />4.3.9.14. Recovery <br />It is important to note that conditions and consequences from a dust storm may linger longer that one <br />can see to the naked eye. There may be lingering dust in the air after a dust storm so the first step to <br />recovery is to continue to avoid breathing in outdoor air for hours after a storm passes. From an <br />emergency management perspective, assessing the amount of property damage, preparing a list of <br />specific damage to property and buildings, and agriculture damage are top on the list to start the recovery <br />process. <br />4.3.9.15.
