risks coming from single-family homes. The residential <br />property exposure totaled $2.1 trillion, of which Single-family <br />homes accounted for $1.777 trillion. (Florida Insurance Council <br />2013) <br />Vulnerability Assessment. Tropical storm/hurricane events <br />can have the following potential impacts within a community: <br />• Excessive wind; <br />• Excessive water; <br />• Soil/beach erosion; <br />• Electric power outage; <br />• Surface and air transportation disruption; <br />• Navigable waterway impairment; <br />• Potable water system loss or disruption; <br />• Sewer system outage; <br />• Telecommunications system outage; <br />• Human health and safety; <br />• Psychological hardship; <br />• Economic disruption; <br />• Disruption of community services; <br />• Agricultural/fisheries damage; <br />• Damage to critical environmental resources; <br />• Damage to identified historical resources; <br />• Fire; <br />• Toxic releases; and <br />• Stormwater drainage impairment. <br />Hazus estimates the amount of debris that will be generated by <br />hurricanes. The model breaks the debris into four general <br />categories: a) Brick/Wood, b) Reinforced Concrete/Steel, c) <br />Eligible Tree Debris, and d) Other Tree Debris. This distinction <br />is made because of the different types of material handling <br />equipment required to handle the debris. <br />The probabilistic model estimates that a total of 50,920 tons of <br />debris will be generated. Of the total amount, 43,304 tons <br />(83%) is Other Tree Debris. Of the remaining 8,616 tons, <br />Brick/Wood comprises 42% of the total, Reinforced <br />Concrete/Steel comprises 0% of the total, with the remainder <br />being Eligible Tree Debris. If the building debris tonnage is <br />converted to an estimated number of truckloads, it will require <br />143 truckloads (@25 tons/truck) to remove the building debris <br />Indian River County Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan Basic Page 24 <br />
