Post date: Jul 09, 2019 3:31:21 PM

Dear Mr. Groff,

Congratulations! The Town of Williamstown’s Hazard Mitigation Plan has received its formal approval from FEMA Region 1. Your copy of the Formal Approval letter and Final review Tool are attached to this email. This plan approval now enables the Town to be eligible to apply for FEMA Hazard Mitigation Assistance Grant Programs. Your plan is good for a period of five years from the approval date in the letter.

Your hazard mitigation plan is a “living” document. Risk information and mitigation strategies found therein are applicable to other local planning, adaptation and resilience, and mitigation efforts, and should be shared for integration purposes as outlined in the plan maintenance section. In addition, this plan should be shared with your entire community through web postings, meetings, and other local conversations. Should you have any questions on the use of your plan, please contact any member of the Hazard Mitigation Unit at MEMA.

Regards,

Jeff
