Executive Summary

     This study was undertaken as a cooperative ef fort of the
Metro-Dade Office of Emergency Management (OEM) , the Metro-Dade
Planning Department (PD), and the University of Miami Boating
Research Center (BRC) for the purpose of generating primary data on
the potential hurricane evacuation plans of berthed boat owners in
Dade County, Florida. A mail survey questionnaire was designed not
only to survey the evacuation plans of berthed boat owners, but
also to determine the extent of advance preparation that could be
expected from those boat owners in the event of a hurricane. of the
1000 survey questionnaires mailed, 323 legible responses were
received. Additionally, potential hurricane evacuation patterns of
the respondents were analyzed in order to evaluate alternative
evacuation programs and policies.

      The findings of this study may be briefly stated:

       * The respondents to this study were found to be generally
          responsible and concerned with regard to the safety of
          their craft in the event of a hurricane.

       * The majority of respondents have insurance for damage to
          their boat and for the damage that their boat may cause
          to others.

       * The  majority  of  respondents  wished  to  have  more
          information concerning the appropriate actions to be
         taken in the event of a hurricane.

       * The respondents were generally not aware of the legality
          and practicality of occupying their indicated hurricane
         destination.

       * The  sufficiency  of  physical  space  for  hurricane
         destinations in Dade County is unknown.

    In response to the findings of this study, the following
recommendations are made:

       * The County, in cooperation with marine agencies, should
         continue its efforts to provide educational information
         to all boat owners with regard to hurricane preparedness.

       * The procedures  for locating  a hurricane  refuge and
         securing a vessel should be made available to all owners
         facing mandatory evacuation from their marina.

       * Berthed boat owners should secure contractual mooring
         agreements.

       * Marinas that require evacuation of berthed boats in the

                               I







          event of a hurricane, should make every ef fort to inform
          each owner of this intention and of the consequences
          should they not comply with this policy.

       * All marinas,  regardless of their evacuation policy,
          should require a hurricane plan from each wet slip lessee
          as a prerequisite for wet slip rental.

       * Marinas that require evacuation of berthed boats in the
          event of a hurricane, should require the boat owner's
         hurricane plan to specify the intended hurricane
         destination, and include a statement from the owner that
         certifies that a trial run has been made within the past
         year.

       * The County should use the results of this study to assist
          in evaluating the efficacy of mandatory berthed boat
         evacuation in County marinas.

    Subsequent marine hurricane preparedness studies should be
conducted to address, at least, the following two specific issues:

       * The location and capacities of potential hurricane refuge
          sites must be accurately determined. Current data on the
          location, accessibility, and capacity of hurricane refuge
          sites is very limited. Additional field work in this area
          is essential to determine the viability of mandatory
         marina evacuation.

       * Marine evacuation clearance times should be studied in
         more detail. An appropriate model for this type of study
         would be computer simulation. in a simulation model, each
         boat could be tracked through the marine network over
         time. This would allow vessel characteristics such as
         size, speed, and maneuverability to be studied as they
         affect each boat's ability to perform a safe evacuation
          in congested waterways under adverse weather conditions.
















                               2







1.0 Introduction

     The purpose of this study was the generation of primary data
on the potential hurricane evacuation plans of berthed boat owners
in Dade County, Florida. The study was designed not only to survey
the evacuation plans of berthed boat owners, but also to determine
the extent of advance preparation that could be expected from those
boat owners in the event of a hurricane. Additionally, potential
berthed boat hurricane evacuation patterns were analyzed in order
to evaluate alternative evacuation programs and policies.

     This study was a cooperative effort of the Metro-Dade office
of Emergency Management (OEM), the Metro-Dade Planning Department
(PD), and the University of Miami Boating Research Center (BRC).
Data collection was done through a mail survey of berthed boat
owners in marinas in Dade County, Florida. The analysis of these
data will be used to provide information to the Office of Emergency
Management for the purpose of updating the County's Hurricane
Evacuation Plan.

     The survey methods and the analyses of berthed boat evacuation
patterns used in this study are described in detail in this report.
This final report will be made available to the Florida Departments
of Community Affairs, Environmental Regulation, and Natural
Resources. The report will also be made available to other local
governments throughout the State of Florida to assist them in
analyzing the magnitude and scope of problems associated with
marine hurricane evacuation patterns and plans in their area.

    Although Dade County has not been hit by a major hurricane
since 1965, the number of boats berthed in both county- and
privately-owned marinas has increased substantially during the past
few years. Under the current policy, when a hurricane warning is
issued, most public marinas, and some private marinas, require boat
owners to remove their boats. By the time the evacuation order is
issued during the hurricane warning period, it is generally
considered unsafe to be on the water. As the hurricane approaches,
sea, wind, and other conditions may inhibit or prohibit boat
movements. For example, when sustained winds reach 35 miles per
hour, bascule bridges are locked in the down position preventing
many sailboats from entering certain waterways.

    An additional concern among boat owners is how to identify and
locate areas for refuge in a hurricane. Areas well known by the
public may not be available in time of emergency. The County's best
known hurricane destination, the Miami River, is no longer
considered to be a good hurricane refuge because the United States
Coast Guard will no longer provide traffic control at the mouth of
the River and the South Florida Water Management District has
embarked a campaign to educate boaters on the risks of anchoring on
the river.


                               3






     The problems associated with marine hurricane preparedness
include the increasing number of wet stored boats in Dade County,
the fact that a substantial number of boats in wet storage are
owned by non-Dade County residents, and the lack of hurricane
experience among boat owners. The lack of time for preparation and
the possible unavailability of space for safe haven could be
catastrophic if a major hurricane were to strike the area.

     As a first step in addressing these concerns, the Metro Dade
Planning Department, the Office of Emergency Management, and the
University of Miami Boating Research Center have obtained a Coastal
Zone Management Grant in the amount of $50,000 to obtain primary
data on the hurricane evacuation plans and experiences of the
berthed boat owners in Dade County, Florida. The data were
generated by mail survey. Responses from the survey were validated
and analyzed by the Boating Research Center to provide information
to the Metro Dade Office of Emergency Management. Specifically, the
study investigated the intentions of boat owners in public and
private marinas in Dade County in the event of a hurricane,
identified areas of potential problems or conflicts, and suggested
appropriate solutions.

     To accomplish these goals, four tasks were undertaken. The
first was the formulation of a sampling plan, i.e. the selection of
the boats and marinas to be included in the study, and the
validation of the berthed boats' registration information by cross-
tabulation with the State of Florida vessel registration files.
Once the sampling plan was formulated, the second task was the
development and validation of the survey questionnaire. This task
included holding a public meeting to discuss the proposed survey
and questionnaire design as well as conducting a pilot study. Using
this information , the third task was the actual collection of the
survey data and the entry of the primary survey data into a machine
readable database. Finally, the fourth task involved the analysis
of the survey data and the preparation of the project report.

     The remainder of this report is devoted to the discussion of
the project tasks described above. Each of the project tasks is
detailed below in a separate section of this report. An attempt is
made to describe the methods and results in sufficient detail so
that this study may be useful to other coastal localities that may
need to evaluate the marine aspects of their hurricane emergency
management plans. A final section of this report discusses the
conclusions that may be drawn from the results of this study and
makes several recommendations with regard to emergency planning and
possible extensions of this work that may be of future interest.

2.0 Formulation of the Sampling Plan and Validation of Berthed
     Boat Registration Information

2.1 Identification of Marinas to be Included in the Study

     The Dade County Planning Department provided the Boating
Research Center with an inventory of marinas with ten or more
berths and a list of berthed boat owners in those marinas. The
inventory included 88 public and private marinas. The list included
the names of 3007 berthed boat owners. The inventory of marinas
included in this study is shown in Exhibit 1.

2.2 Validation of Berthed Boat Registrations

     The Boating Research Center verified the list of berthed boat
owners in the marina inventory provided by the County by cross-
tabulating the number of wet slips in the marinas, number of
berthed boats in each marina, and the number of names of berthed
boat owners in each marina. The Center then merged the file of
owners of berthed boats in county marinas with the 1989 Florida
vessel registration file. The merging was done to validate the boat
characteristics and the names and addresses of boat owners in the
inventory. Exhibits I and 2 show the results of the cross-
verification and the merging of these files.

     As can be seen in the exhibits, cross-verification of the
inventory was necessary to check the consistency of the individual
data records. In Exhibit 2, for example, the total number of names
and addresses in the inventory is 294 less than the actual number
of berthed boats in the marina. In some marinas, the total number
of berthed boats in the inventory exceeded the actual number of
boats present in the wet slips. It was discovered that this anomaly
was due to the erroneous addition of boats in dry storage to the
berthed boat inventory.

    At this initial stage of the study, it was felt that boat
characteristics and the geographic location of the berthed boats
would affect the survey responses to questions probing evacuation
plans. Consequently, it was necessary to stratify the sample used
for the pilot survey. Stratification of the pilot survey would
allow the determination of any significant differences by
geographic region or by boat type within the population. In order
to obtain boat characteristics, it was necessary to match the
berthed boat owner's name and address with a record in the Florida
Vessel registration file. In the final analysis, the merging of the
files resulted in a total of 1760 records with names, addresses and
boat characteristics that could be used in the sampling frame for
the pilot study.

3.0 Development and Validation of the Survey Questionnaire

3.1 Questionnaire Survey Design

    Using standard survey design methodology, the Boating Research
Center developed a preliminary questionnaire for the mail survey.
The questionnaire was then given to the Of fice of Emergency
Management and Dade County Planning Office for comments and
suggestions. The changes proposed by these offices were discussed
and considered and incorporated into the questionnaire for
presentation at the Hurricane Preparedness Workshop.

    A public workshop on the proposed hurricane survey was held
on March 2, 1990. The purpose of the workshop was to hear the ideas
and suggestions of the boating community about the hurricane study.
Exhibit 3 shows the sample letter inviting members of the boating
community to the workshop and the names and affiliations of the
invitees.

    A diverse group of people attended the workshop and a number
of recommendations for improving the survey were given. Exhibit 4
shows the suggestions for the survey questionnaire which were
brought up during the workshop. Based on these suggestions, the
Boating Research Center, the Office of Emergency Management, and
the Planning Department finalized the survey questionnaire to be
used for the pilot survey. Exhibit 5 shows the cover letter and the
survey questionnaire for the pilot study.

3.2 The Pilot Survey

     The pilot study was conducted by the Boating Research Center.
The pilot study was designed to estimate the response rate of the
questionnaire, to measure significant variances in the survey
responses, to assess the ambiguities in the prepared questionnaire,
and to examine the necessity of stratifying the sampling frame
according to geographical location and type of boat.

     The pilot survey population consisted of berthed boat owners
in Dade County for which name, address, and boat characteristic
data were available. The sampling frame was the list of berthed
boat owners in marinas/condo/etc. in Dade county with 10 or more
slips provided by the Dade County Planning Department. The list
contained 2965 useable names, addresses, and/or registration
numbers of berthed boat owners. This list was merged with the
Florida Vessel Registration File to determine the type of boats
berthed in the marinas. 1760 names with corresponding boat
characteristics were extracted from the registration file.

     The 1760 names were stratified according to geographical
location of the marina (North, Central, and South Dade) and the
boat type. ( Exhibit 6 shows the distribution of the names
according to geographical location and boat type). From this list,

                               6







128 names were chosen for the pilot study.

     To avoid any possibility of bias (i.e. including only the boat
owners found in the registration file) a sample of 30 was also
taken from the pool of boat owners not found in the registration
file. Most of these boats were documented vessels and the majority
of these were not documented in Florida.

3.3 Pilot Survey Results

     The pilot survey was mailed and a 34 % response rate was
realized. Exhibits 7 and 8 present the results and analysis of the
pilot survey. Briefly, several points were noted. First, the chi
square tests showed that stratification by geographic region was
needed as hurricane refuge sites are found to be dependent upon
marina location. Second, it was found that stratification of the
sample by boat type was not required. The survey indicated that
other population characteristics were independent of the type of
boat considered. Third, ambiguities were found to exist in several
questions of the pilot survey questionnaire. In question 11, for
example, ambiguities arose from the inclusion of boats in dry
storage in the sampling frame. In question 25, insurance coverage
and damages were found not to be sufficiently specific. Question 27
revealed the inability of respondents to match correctly the names
and years of occurrence of various hurricanes. These points were
used to refine both the final questionnaire design and the sampling
plan. These issues are discussed in greater detail in the next
section.






4.0 Data Collection and Entry of Response Data into a Computerized
    Database

4.1 Development of the Final Survey Questionnaire

     Based on the results of the pilot survey, several changes were
recommended and incorporated into the final survey. First, the BRC
recommended that the list of boat owners should be improved by the
Metro-Dade Planning Department to eliminate the names of boat
owners with boats in dry storage at the marinas. Due to time and
personnel limitations, however, the Planning Department was not
able to improve the list. To correct the error of including boats
in dry storage in the final survey, the possible responses for
question 11 were augmented to include the possibility that the boat
may be in dry storage. Second, questions 25 and 26 of the survey
were clarified to ask specifically for insurance coverage and
damages incurred. Finally, question 27 was simplified to requesting
the year of the incident hurricane rather than the name. The final
survey questionnaire is shown in Exhibit 9.

4.2 Selection of sample size

     The sample size required for the final survey may be
determined using standard statistical methodology. The data
obtained from the survey are nominal in nature, hence we are
interested in estimating the proportion of responses in the various
response categories. Given a total population of finite size, a
tolerable error amount, and an allowable risk level of making that
tolerable error, the required sample size, may be calculated using
the following statistical formula:

                                  N z2 p q
                         n =
                                (N-1) e2 + z2 p q

where n is the required sample size,
      N is the size of the finite population,
      z is the normal random variate associated with the specified
          risk level,
      p is the estimated population proportion of interest,
      q is equal to I-p, and
      e is the tolerable error level.

     For the above formula, the required values are obtained from
the sampling frame, estimated from the pilot survey, or specified
by the researchers. The size of the finite population, N, used in
this determination was 2754. The value of the random normal
variate, z, associated with a 95% risk (confidence) level may be
found in a statistical table and is equal to 1.96. The population
proportions, p, being surveyed are estimated at the conservative
value of .5. Note that p=q=.5 maximizes the value of p*q and hence
maximizes the sample size. The tolerable error level, e, was

                               8







assumed to be .05. Using these values the required sample was
calculated to be 337.2. This sample size was rounded up to 338
responses. Hence 338 sample responses were needed to insure a
confidence of 95 % of being within +/- .05 of any population
proportion estimated.

    Assuming a 34 -% response rate as determined in the pilot
study, the number of surveys required to be mailed to garner 338
returns is 994. As a matter of convenience, it was decided to mail
1000 surveys.

    The survey mailing of 1000 names and addresses was selected
from the 2754 names and addresses in the final sampling frame. The
selections were stratified according to geographic location in
proportion to the number of berthed boats in each region. The
following is the distribution of samples according to the
geographic location of the marina:

              North:    95
              South:    242
              Central:  663

4.3 Data collection, data entry, and survey response

    The Boating Research Center prepared a file in dBase format
for data entry.   This was given to the Metro-Dade  Planning
Department for the purpose of entering the responses from the mail
survey. The Metro Dade Planning Department entered data from 330
responses in the file. The file was then given back to the BRC for
analysis. Subsequently, the BRC received 20 additional responses
from the mail survey. These were added to the file.

    Of 1000 questionnaires mailed, a total of 350 responses were
received. Fifteen of these questionnaires were disregarded because
they were not completed by the respondent. Of the 335 remaining,
only 323 were legible and consistent.







5.0 Data Analysis

5.1 Frequency analysis

     A f requency analysis of the survey data is presented in
Exhibits 10 and 11 . The typical respondent's boat is 30 to 40 feet
in length with a 6 to 10 foot beam. The most likely draft is 3
feet. The typical height of the boat is 40 to 49 feet implying a
sailboat. Indeed, 57 % of the respondents were sailboat owners.
Almost 95 1% of the boats were constructed of fiberglass.  The
typical boat of the respondents was of the 1970 to 1980 model
vintage, and had been purchased within the last four years.

     Over 65 % of the survey respondents in Dade County have been
boat owners for more than five years. They have typically kept
their boat in the marina in which it is currently berthed for more
than five years.

     Most of the berthed boats are not trailerable. only 24 % of
the respondents have trailerable boats. 68 1% of those who can
trailer their boats own a trailer. 12 % of the respondents
indicated that they would trailer their boat in the event the
threat of a hurricane required marina evacuation.

     The respondents are generally aware whether or not their
marina requires evacuation if a hurricane threatens. 73 % responded
that their marina required evacuation and 67 % said they intended
to move their boat. 64 % planned to move their boat more than 48
hours before the expected landfall of the storm. The time of the
actual response indicated by the respondents, however, was much
nearer the expected landfall of the storm, 24 to 48 hours before
landfall. it is important to note that the hurricane experiences
indicated in the responses were often inconsistent. There is no way
to determine whether the respondents' hurricane experiences were
gained in Dade County or elsewhere.

    Although a high percentage of survey respondents plan to move
their boats when a hurricane threatens, 39 % do not know where to
move them. Of those respondents who specified a destination in
their evacuation plan, 17.8 % chose the Miami River, 8 % chose the
Coral Gables Waterway, 3.7 -% specified inland canals, and 3%
indicated Biscayne Bay.

    Only 10 -% of those who intend to move their boats have a
written contract for a hurricane mooring. 50 % of the respondents
have arranged for pickup from their hurricane  moorings and 59%A
have conducted a dry run.


5.2 Cross-tabulation Analysis

    The analysis of the cross-tabulations of the data from the

                               10







survey respondents'I hurricane evacuation plans reveals several
interesting results. First, as noted in the pilot study, there
exist three distinct geographic areas with respect to berthed boats
in Dade County. For the purposes of this study the three areas were
denoted north, central, and south, The north region begins at the
mouth of the Miami River and continues north to the Broward County
line. The central region begins at the Miami River and continues
south to southwest 88th street. The south region begins at
southwest 88th street and continues south to the Monroe County
line. Second, the three geographic regions in the County differ not
only in the typical types of boats in their marinas, but also in
the planning and preparation of their boat owners for hurricane
evacuation. Finally, traits that are not signif icantly dif ferent
across the various marinas include the length of boat ownership,
the decision of when to move the boat if it is to be moved, and the
acquisition of insurance coverage. Exhibit 12 shows the cross
tabulation by geographic location. Exhibit 13 shows the cross-
tabulation by marina.

     The types of boats berthed in the marinas of the different
geographic regions were found to be significantly different. In the
northern region, which follows the intercostal waterway, most of
the marinas are small privately owned facilities. The typical boat
in this area is a power boat. In the central and southern regions,
which have direct access to Biscayne Bay, the predominant mode of
propulsion is sail. The sailboats tend to be taller, have less
horsepower, and are not trailerable.

     An examination of hurricane evacuation plans in the three
geographic regions revealed several significant differences. First,
with regard to whether or not the respondents planned to move their
boats, the respondents in the central region, i.e. marinas in Key
Biscayne and Coconut Grove, overwhelming said they would move their
boats, while in the north and the south the majority of respondents
said they would not. If fact, the majority of respondents in the
northern region said that they were not required to move their
boat. In the southern region, although respondents admitted that
they were required to move their boats, the majority said that they
did not intend to do so.

     Thorough preparation for an evacuation prior to a hurricane
includes a practice run to the refuge site and arranging for
someone to pickup the boat captain and bring them to their home.
The responses were again significantly different for these issues.
Only in the central region did a majority of respondents indicate
that they had made a dry run and that they had arranged a pickup.
This was not true in the northern and southern regions.

     Finally it was noted in the responses of the survey that the
amount of information an hurricane evacuation available at the
various marinas was perceived to be significantly different. The
respondents in the central region believed that information was

                               11







generally available, while the respondents in the northern region
were evenly split between available and not available. The
respondents in the southern region indicated that hurricane
evacuation information was not generally available.

5.3 Development of the Geographic Information System and Creation
   of the Marine Traffic Network Model

    In an effort to use the data obtained in the survey of berthed
boat owners to evaluate different hurricane evacuation plan
scenarios, a marine traffic model was developed utilizing a
geographic inf ormation system. The geographic inf ormation system
f or used f or this study was the ARCINFO system developed by the
Environmental Systems Research Laboratory (ESRI). ARCINFO is
sophisticated software system that allows the creation and
manipulation of various geographic and mapping data. The map of
Dade County used in this study was obtained from the Dade County
Planning Department. The map is designed in ARCINFO format and
includes the latest location and attribute information for the
marinas and hurricane destinations in this study.

    The results of the hurricane evacuation survey of berthed boat
owners allow origin/destination information for individual boat
owners to be obtained. The survey results were then generalized for
the remainder of the berthed boat owners in the marinas of the
study. The destinations of the berthed boats were allocated
proportionally to the destinations indicated in the survey.

    The movement of boats from marinas to hurricane destinations
in the model was accomplished through the use of a network flow
model. In the network model, each marina becomes a source node
supplying boats to the network. Each specified hurricane
destination becomes a sink for boat traf fic. Connecting the sources
and destinations is a marine traffic network containing arcs that
represent the legs of navigable marine routes. These marine routes
were obtained through the use of National Oceanographic and
Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) maps and depth charts and in
consultation with a NOAA marine specialist.

    The marine traffic network developed for this study included
88 marinas identified in the marina inventory as requiring
evacuation. The total number of boats in these marinas is 2299.
Additionally, there were 20 hurricane destination areas identified
by survey respondents. A list of these hurricane destinations may
be found in Exhibit 14. A map of the marine traf fic network used in
this study is shown in Exhibit 15. 

5.4 Analysis of the Network Model Using the Netsolve Program

    The determination of the movement or flow of boats through the
marine network was accomplished through the use of programming
package called Netsolve. Netsolve is an interactive software

                              12







package for network analysis developed by Upstate Resources, Inc.
(URI). Netsolve uses optimization algorithms to determine minimum
cost flow allocations in capacitated networks. Network models
suitable for this type of optimization are characterized by nodes
of three basic types: source nodes, sink nodes, and transshipment
nodes. Source nodes are points from which f low into the network
originates. In the marine traffic model of this study, the marinas
are source nodes. The boats that evacuate the marinas as a
hurricane approaches are the units of flow that are dispatched into
the network. Sink nodes are points into which flow in the network
terminates. The hurricane destinations represent the sink nodes in
this application. Finally, the transshipment nodes are points at
which flow is conserved. That is, the flow into the transshipment
point is equal to the flow out of the point. The navigational way
points of the evacuation routes are transshipment points of the
model.

     The results of the evacuation plan survey indicated that 30%
of all the respondents did not have an evacuation plan. Based upon
the assumption that if a boat owner was forced to evacuate the
marina the owner would follow other owners who had a plan, the
total number of boats from each marina allocated to a specific
hurricane destination was adjusted to reflect the proportion of
respondents from the marina who designated that hurricane
destination. The model was then run to determine the marine traffic
patterns that would disburse all the boats to hurricane
destinations in a minimum total distance.

     It is important to note that because reliable information on
capacities was not available, the hurricane destinations in the
marine traffic network were defined with unlimited capacities. The
model was executed for each marina. The results were then combined
to determine the total number of boats destined for a particular
location and to determine where congestion may exist along the
marine traffic network.

     The results of the model execution are presented in Exhibit
16. Of the 2299 boats moving over the network, 859 are seeking
refuge in the Miami River. The heaviest traffic intensity is over
the link J to K between the Rickenbacker Causeway and the mouth of
the Miami River. Over a period of 24 hours, 644 boats will traverse
this link. The second most popular destination is the Coral Gables
Waterway, which will have 250 boats. This would represent 11 % of
the total boats moving over the network. At the present time, Coral
Gables police intend to enforce a policy that would prohibit any
boats entering the waterway without a signed mooring contract.
Since only 6.5 % of the boat owners surveyed have such agreements,
one could at best suspect that 149 boats would be allowed into the
waterway leaving over a hundred boat owners to seek refuge
elsewhere at the time of an impending hurricane landfall.

6.0 Conclusions and Recommendations

6.1 Overview

     The survey of hurricane evacuation plans of berthed boat
owners in Dade County, Florida revealed a number of points of
interest to those responsible for emergency planning and management
in the County. The results of this study showed that the
intentions, plans, and preparations of the respondents differed
significantly across the natural geographic strata of the County's
water resources. Respondents north of the mouth of the Miami River
occupying private slips did not intend to move their boats in the
event of a hurricane. Respondents in the region from the Miami
River south to southwest 88th street were generally aware of the
requirement to move their boat, were prepared to move, and had made
a practice evacuation run. Respondents in the county marinas south
of southwest 88th street, however, generally knew of the
requirement to evacuate their marina, but had no intention of doing
so. Judging from the tone of the written comments on the survey
forms, many of the southern region respondents felt that their
marinas were safe refuge sites and that they could not improve
their condition by evacuating.

     In many cases, information, or the lack thereof, was an
important factor. The survey results found that the respondents had
significantly different perceptions of the availability of
information concerning hurricane evacuation procedures. Only those
respondents in the central region felt that they had been given
adequate information. Many of the respondents asked for any
additional information that may be available and even offered to
pay for it. Exhibit 17 presents a tabulation of the respondent's
comments and suggestions.

     Finally, the study was unable to determine whether there is a
shortage of space that would provide hurricane refuge to the
berthed boats in Dade County. Additionally, it was generally found
that the respondents had not made adequate preparation in securing
mooring agreements, making practice evacuation runs, and arranging
pickup at the destination site.

6.2 Conclusions

     The findings of this study may be briefly stated:

       * The respondents to this study were found to be generally
         responsible and concerned with regard to the safety of
         their craft in the event of a hurricane.

       * The majority of respondents have insurance for damage to
         their boat and for the damage that their boat may cause
         to others.


                               14







           * The  majority  of  respondents  wished  to  have  more
             information concerning the appropriate actions to be
             taken in the event of a hurricane.

           * The respondents were generally not aware of the legality
             and practicality of occupying their indicated hurricane
             destination.

           * The  sufficiency  of  physical  space  for  hurricane
             destinations in Dade County is unknown.

   6.3 Recommendations

        In response to the findings of this study, the following
   recommendations are made:

          * The County, in cooperation with marine agencies, should
             continue its efforts to provide educational information
             to all boat owners with regard to hurricane preparedness.

          * The procedures  for locating a hurricane  refuge and
             securing a vessel should be made available to all owners
             facing mandatory evacuation from their marina.

          * Berthed boat owners should secure contractual mooring
             agreements.

          * Marinas that require evacuation of berthed boats in the
             event of a hurricane, should make every effort to inform
             each owner of this intention and of the consequences
             should they not comply with this policy.

          * All marinas,  regardless of their evacuation policy,
             should require a hurricane plan from each wet slip lessee
             as a prerequisite for wet slip rental.

          * Marinas that require evacuation of berthed boats in the
             event of a hurricane, should require the boat owner's
             hurricane plan to specify the intended hurricane
             destination, and include a statement from the owner that
             certifies that a trial run has been made within the past
             year.

          * The County should use the results of this study to assist
             in evaluating the efficacy of mandatory berthed boat
*            ~~~~evacuation in County marinas.

        Subsequent marine hurricane preparedness studies should be
   conducted to address, at least, the following two specific issues:

          * The location and capacities of potential hurricane refuge
             sites must be accurately determined. Current data on the

                                  15







  location, accessibility, and capacity of hurricane refuge
  sites is very limited. Additional field work in this area
  is essential to determine the viability of mandatory
  marina evacuation.

* Marine evacuation clearance times should be studied in
  more detail. An appropriate model for this type of study
  would be computer simulation. In a simulation model, each
  boat could be tracked through the marine network over
  time. This would allow vessel characteristics such as
  size, speed, and maneuverability to be studied as they
  affect each boat's ability to perform a safe evacuation
  in congested waterways under adverse weather conditions.

                       Sample Letter for the Workshop






        February 22. 1990



        Mr. Dick Briggs
        Marine CouncilI
        615 SW 2 Avenue
        Miami, FL 33130

        Dear Mr. Briggs:

        You are invited to attend a Workshop on Hurricane Marine
        Response at the University of Miami Rosensteil School of
        Marine and Atmospheric Sciences Auditorium on March 2, 1990
        from I to 2:30 PM. The purpose of the workshop is to
        discuss work that is about to begin on a survey of what
        owners of berthed boats in Dade County intend to do with
        their boats in the event of a hurricane. Before sending out
        the survey, staff from the UM Boating Research Center and
        the Dade County Office of Emergency Management and Planning
        Department want to hear your ideas and suggestions about
        this important study.

        As you know, Dade County has not been hit by a major hurri-
        cane since 1965. However, the number of boats berthed in
        this area has increased substantially during the past 25
        years. The County's current hurricane response plan does
        not adequately identify options that may be available to
        individual boat owners in the event of a hurricane nor did
        past public information sufficiently advise the boating
        public of how to prepare their craft.

        Dade County has received a federal Coastal Zone Management
       Grant to find out what owners of berthed boats intend-to do
       with their boats in a hurricane, and the degree of advance
        preparation that those boat owners can be expected to have
       done prior to a hurricane. Potential boating hurricane
*      ~~evacuation patterns will be analyzed and alternative marine
        evacuation programs and policies will be evaluated.

       This will be a cooperative effort by Metro-Dade County and
        the University of Miami Boating Research Center. The data
       collection will be done through a mail survey of berthed
        boat owners in major marinas in Dade County. The mail
        survey will be followed up by telephone to obtain a statis-
        tically reliable sample size. The data will be analyzed to
        provide information to be 'used by the Office of Emergency
       Management in updating the County's Hurricane Plan. The
                                    21

final report will also be sent to state agencies and to
local governments throughout the State of Florida to assist
them in developing marine hurricane response plans.
You can assist us in this important effort by attending the
workshop on March 2nd. Members of the Boating Research
Center will  discuss the survey approach and the questions
that they think should be asked, but we want to be sure that
we have covered the right topics before going public with
the survey. Please call me at 375-2835 any weekday from 8:30
to 5:30 if you will be able to attend.

                        Exhibit 5



                               April 17, 1990


Dear boat owner:

     The Boating Research Center of the University of
Miami, under contract to Metro-Dade County, is conducting
a survey of berthed boat owners in marinas in Dade County.
The survey results will assist the Metro Planning
Department and Office of Emergency Management in revising
hurricane plans.

     Dade County has not experienced a major hurricane
since 1950. Since that time, the pleasure boating
population has soared while safe harbor space has
diminished. In order to develop realistic hurricane plans
we need your input. Please take a few minutes to complete
the enclosed survey.

     We would be happy to share with you the survey
results once completed. Your cooperation is important and
very much appreciated. If you have any questions please
call the Boating Research Center at 361-4085.



Safe Boating,

Associate Director
