Prince William County finds this funding source encouraging to prepare flood resilience plans and for the implementation of flood hazard mitigation projects.  We would like to see that a portion of the grant funds are earmarked/dedicated to support local planning or project implementation that may not meet the threshold of state or regional significance in scale.  It would be very helpful to support local planning and implementation projects geared toward mitigating flood hazards.  We support DCR's efforts to introduce this new source of funding.
