Future Development Factor <br />The future development factor is the potential that future development will have on increasing or <br />decreasing the impact/consequence of the hazard. Table 4-15 outlines the future development factors <br />used in the risk assessment calculation of this Plan. <br />Table 4-15. Future Development Factor <br />4.3,4.8. Climate Change Factor <br />The potential that climate change will increase the risk of the hazard (i.e., type, location, and range of <br />anticipated intensities of the hazard and impacts). Table 4-16 outlines the climate change factors used <br />in the risk assessment calculation of this Plan. <br />Table 4-16.
