Preparation of the plan included a FEMA-prescribed mitigation planning process that included two (2) public hearings involving all participating localities, including Sussex County. The plan consists of hazard mitigation actions to reduce the potential for harm to people and property from future hazard occurrences and satisfies a condition to receive future funding for mitigation projects under multiple FEMA pre- and post-disaster mitigation grant programs.
