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

Abstract

Almost all of the food (99.5%) consumed in FEMA Region IX 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, Arizona and California, are self-sufficient, warehousing over 99% of their food supplies within their own borders. The third state, Nevada, is heavily dependent on out-of-state warehouses for food shipments, with only 14% of its food supplies stored within the state boundaries. Most of Nevada's food stocks (78%) come from warehouses located in California, highlighting a need for interstate coordination. (Author)
