Department Highlights

Local Hazard Mitigation Plan

The South Orange County Community College District has been conducting community meetings to work on the development of a Local Hazard Mitigation Plan (LHMP). The purpose of the LHMP is to identify actions/projects that will help reduce and/or eliminate the loss of life and property from the impact of hazards in the community. The public is invited to the meetings to learn about SOCCCD’s efforts to develop the LHMP and provide feedback on local concerns. The meeting dates and times will be announced on the homepage of the SOCCCD website.

COVID-19 Disinfection Plan

In response to the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic, SOCCCD has developed a Disinfection Plan to help prevent the spread of the infectious disease. These protocols are in addition to the standard cleaning protocols followed by college Facilities, Maintenance & Operations departments. The Plan applies to all areas within the District and relies on a common understanding of a “multiple barrier approach” to reduce exposure and transmission of the COVID-19 virus. This Plan is supplemental to the District’s Injury & Illness Prevention Program (IIPP).
