Hazard 24


Hazard 24 :

A condition with the potential for harm to the community or environment. Many use the terms hazard and disaster agent interchangeably. Hence, they will refer to the hurricane hazard or even more broadly to natural hazards which includes hurricanes, tornadoes, earthquakes and other natural phenomena that have the potential for harm. The hazard is the potential, the disaster is the actual event. (Drabek 1997).
