The paper designs an exploratory path aimed at assessing the state of emergency planning in Italy. Umbria Region, recently affected by seismic events, is considered as a case study. The exploration focuses on the relationship between drafting and design quality of the plans, risk assessment and responsive strategies. Based on a multivariate analysis, specific classes of plans are identified, which, although different in terms of document quality, reveal common limits in response capabilities. The conclusions discuss the opportunity to rethink the emergency plan in relation to urban planning and operational risk management, as suggested by the new Civil Protection Act (2018).
