This 2-day workshop discusses the Disaster
Mitigation Act of 2000 which amends the Robert
T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance
Act by, among other things, adding a new section,

Mitigation Planning Workshop for Local Governments course
assists representatives of local communities or multijurisdictional
planning areas to develop a mitigation
plan that meets community needs as well as the
Section 322 local government planning requirements
as described in 44 CFR Section 201.6. This workshop
