What past disasters mean for kitchens in Yacolt

Since 1964, Clark County has been named in 15 FEMA declarations; severe storms (6 declarations) and flooding (5 declarations) lead the list. A project that reaches Battle Ground should read that page too; it lists the declarations for its county.

The most recent is Severe Storms, Straight-Line Winds, Flooding, Landslides, and Mudslides (major disaster declaration, DR-4906), declared April 7, 2026, with the incident beginning December 5, 2025. Flooding tends to knock out power and drainage first, leaving kitchens unable to cook or keep food cold even when the building is standing. By incident type, the count is severe storms 6, flooding 5, wildfire 1, coastal storm 1 and earthquake 1. By decade: 1960s 1, 1970s 1, 1980s 1, 1990s 3, 2000s 5, 2010s 1 and 2020s 3. The records also list Severe Winter Storms, Straight-Line Winds, Flooding, Landslides, and Mudslides (DR-4775, April 28, 2024), Nakia Creek Fire (FM-5456, October 17, 2022), Severe Winter Storm, Straight-Line Winds, Flooding, Landslides, Mudslides, and a T (DR-4253, February 2, 2016), Severe Winter Storm and Record and Near Record Snow (DR-1825, March 2, 2009) and Severe Winter Storm, Landslides, and Mudslides (DR-1682, February 14, 2007).

Ten years of NOAA storm records, 2016 through 2025, show 22 county-based event records for Clark County; high-wind and thunderstorm events account for 15 of them, flood events for 7. Storm winds mean outages measured in days in some places, so the generator question belongs in the plan from the start.

Clark County is the origin of 1 mapped wildfire of 1,000 acres or more since 2016, adding up to roughly 1,930 acres, according to NIFC. The biggest, Nakia Creek, burned 1,930 acres in 2022. A fire that never touches a kitchen can still close it: evacuation orders, smoke and utility shutoffs come first.

FEMA declarations apply to designated areas and do not say which individual buildings were affected.

Construction projects and crew meals near Yacolt

USASpending.gov lists 34 federal construction contracts of $500,000 or more with work in Clark County since October 2021, worth about $96 million together. The Department of the Interior committed $8.1 million to “WA Ridgefield NWR Visitor Center” in Clark County, awarded December 2023 (award record). Another public record is “Mna Levee Pump Station Upgrade Task Order 0001,” a $7.7 million Department of Defense contract from March 2024 in Clark County (award record). In June 2026, the Department of Veterans Affairs awarded a $6.7 million contract for “Con Project 648-20-116 Correct Electrical Def. Portland Vamc” in Clark County, with work running to August 2027 (award record). USASpending.gov shows a $6.3 million Department of Veterans Affairs contract, “Construct Campus Security Fence and Access Control Con Project,” starting August 2026 in Clark County (award record). A contract of that size means a crew that eats on site: hot food for many people on odd shifts, with water and wastewater to plan for the kitchen. A project in La Center, about 4,256 residents, would face the same phasing questions about gates, haul roads and pad space.

USASpending.gov shows a $7.4 million Department of Veterans Affairs contract, “Minor Project 648-345 Repair Seismic Shear Walls, Community Living Center, Vancouver, WA,” starting September 2018 in Clark County (award record).

The closure date drives the plan in Ridgefield too.
