Hazard mitigation can be an action, activity, process, or physical project designed to reduce or eliminate the long-term risks from hazards. The Town of Windsor, Massachusetts Hazard Mitigation & Climate Adaptation Plan (HMCAP) is prepared to meet the requirements of 44 CFR § 201.6 pertaining to local hazard mitigation plans. 44 CFR § 201.6(a)(1) states that “a local government must have a mitigation plan approved pursuant to this section in order to receive HMGP project grants. Furthermore, a local government must have a mitigation plan approved pursuant to this section in order to apply for and receive mitigation project grants under all other mitigation grant programs.” As the HMCAP will illustrate, Windsor’s eligibility for FEMA’s hazard mitigation grants is crucial.
