This in turn will help to reduce the costs when hazards do occur. <br /> <br />The plan has been approved by the State Division of Homeland Security and Emergency Management <br />and the Federal Emergency Management Agency. The adoption of this plan by Ramsey County and the <br />municipalities will allow them to be eligible for Hazard Mitigation Grant Program project funds. These <br />funds will help to offset the costs of some of the mitigation projects set forth in the plan. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />-30- <br /> <br />
