Guidelines and Data to Support Plans for Reallocating Food during Crisis Relocation. Regional Appendix. FEMA Region I,

Abstract

Nearly 90% of the food consumed in FEMA Region I is warehoused within the region. The table below summarizes the source and magnitude of all shipments from warehouses to supermarkets within the region. Two states, Massachusetts and Maine, are largely self-sufficient, warehousing nearly 75% of their food supplies within their own borders, New Hampshire and Vermont are heavily dependent on out-of-state warehouses for food shipments, with only 34% and 25%, respectively, of their food supplies stored within the state boundaries. In the case of Vermont, a substantial portion (34%) of the state's food stocks come from another region (New York in Region II), highlighting a need for interregional coordination. (Author)
