State of Colorado 2011 Pre-Disaster Mitigation, Flood Mitigation Assistance Program and Repetitive Flood Claims Program Announcements

The Colorado Division of Emergency Management Mitigation Team is now accepting applications from eligible sub-grantees for the Pre-Disaster Mitigation Program (PDM), Flood Mitigation Assistance Program (FMA) and Repetitive Flood Claims Program (RFC).  It is the Mitigation Teams’ hope that local emergency management partners will take a comprehensive look at their community’s risk, determine if any projects would meet the requirements for funding, and submit an application.  These grants represent a fantastic opportunity to improve a community’s ability to mitigate natural hazards and reduce potential impacts on citizens, property and local economies.

The Mitigation Team is soliciting Notice of Interest for these programs by July 16, 2010.  Please take a look at the Hazard Mitigation Assistance Announcement Letter and contact Ken Brink, Mitigation Specialist at Kenneth.brink@state.co.us or call 720-852-6695.
