<br />B. Drafting The Plan <br /> <br />The plan can be presented in any format. At a minimwn, three items should be included: <br />I) a description of how the plan was prepared, 2) recommendations, and 3) a budget. <br /> <br />Example Plan Organization <br /> <br />I, Introduction <br />2. Flood Hazard Inventory <br />3. Flood Problem Assessment <br />4. Preventive Mitigation Measures <br />5. Property Protection Measures <br />6. Flood Control Measures <br />7. Emergency Services Measures <br />8. Post-Flood Measures <br />9. Action Plan <br /> <br />A description of how the plan was prepared is needed because FEMA recognition of the <br />plan is dependent on the planning process. The NFIP Reform Act specifically states that there <br />shall be a planning process to develop a pre-disaster flood hazard mitigation plan. Monetary <br />assistance from the Flood Mitigation Assistance Program is contingent upon development of a <br />plan that had a planning process component with public involvement. When selecting the <br />appropriate mitigation measures, it should be determined I) what will be done, 2) by whom, 3) <br />by when, and 4) how it will be financed. The result will be a list of projects, project <br />assignments, as specific as possible. <br /> <br />C. Budget <br /> <br />The plan should determine how recommendations will be financed. Financial feasibility <br />is essential. Generally there are four sources of funding for recommended projects: <br /> <br />1- Operating Funds <br />2- Line item appropriations <br />3- Bond issues <br />4- Outside funding <br /> <br />17 <br />
