Dear Ruben Wegner:
The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has completed its review of the Stanislaus County 2022 – 2027 Multi-Jurisdictional Hazard Mitigation Plan and has determined that this plan is eligible for final approval pending its adoption by Stanislaus County and all participating jurisdictions. Please see the enclosed list of approvable pending adoption jurisdictions.
Formal adoption documentation must be submitted to FEMA Region 9 by at least one participating jurisdiction within one calendar year of the date of this letter, or the entire plan must be updated and resubmitted for review. FEMA will approve the plan upon receipt of the documentation of formal adoption.
Once the plan is approved, each participating jurisdiction must adopt the plan within five calendar years of the date of the approval. The adoption of the plan by each jurisdiction ensures that jurisdiction’s continued eligibility for funding under FEMA’s Hazard Mitigation Assistance (HMA) programs. All requests for funding, however, will be evaluated individually according to the specific eligibility, and other requirements of the particular program under which applications are submitted.
If you have any questions regarding the planning or review processes, please contact the FEMA Region 9 Hazard Mitigation Planning Team at [email protected].
Sincerely,
Alison Kearns
Planning and Implementation Branch Chief
Mitigation Division
