This technical and grant assistance program <br />is administered by the DNR, Division of Waters. At this time, we <br />are accepting applications for the grant portion of this program. <br />Enclosed is a set of instructions, an application form for a Flood <br />Hazard Mitigation Grant, and an informational sheet about the grant <br />program. This program is intended to financially assist in the <br />reduction of flood damage in your community. Examples of projects <br />that may qualify for funding are: structure relocation, <br />floodproofing existing structures, hydraulic or hydrologic studies <br />to map or remap floodplains, signing of floodplain areas, <br />information /education efforts and limited structural projects. <br />Please take time to develop your list of flood damage reduction <br />projects. We hope to identify many worthwhile projects and feel <br />that they will help ensure continued funding of this grant program <br />by the Legislature. In order to be considered for the presently <br />available funding, applications must be submitted by September 30, <br />1989. <br />It is our hope that this program will help provide a permanent <br />solution to many of our persistent flooding problems. If you have <br />questions or would like to arrange a meeting to discuss possible <br />projects, feel free to call me. <br />Sincerely, <br /><A\\ Shy. <br />Molly Shoileen <br />Area Hydrologist <br />Enclosures <br />T240:kap <br />PAGE -6- <br />AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY EMPLOYER <br />
