Deadline: 1/24/2025 2:00 PM   (UTC-07:00) Mountain Time (US & Canada)

Status: Deadline Expired

Solicitation Number: RFP# 2024-07-2024

Description: This proposed project will develop a FEMA Approved Hazard Mitigation Plan (HMP) update for Sierra County, and other participating local governments, that meets the requirements of the Section 1215 of the Disaster Recovery Reform Act of 2018. The project will comply with the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s (FEMA) most current Local Mitigation Planning Policy Guide and Hazard Mitigation Assistance (HMA) Program and Policy Guide. In addition, the HMP will be aligned with the current State of New Mexico’s Hazard Mitigation Plan.


This will be a multi-jurisdictional plan. Commitment letters from the local governments have been provided. Local governments, including special districts, with the intent to participate in this multi-jurisdictional HMP update include County of Sierra, City of Truth or Consequences, Village of Williamsburg and City of Elephant Butte.
Changes in the planning area since the last HMP was developed include: new priorities for this updated HMP and planning process include: expanding the hazard risk and vulnerability assessment, improving the understanding of climate change’s impact on hazards, integrating the HMP across other planning efforts, and assessing the unique risks to underserved populations and communities.

Due to limitations of staff and time availability, Sierra County will utilize a contractor for the facilitation of the planning process and development of the HMP. The contractor will be responsible to Sierra County throughout the planning process, and will maintain its project management role until FEMA approves the HMP.
