LOCAL MITIGATION PLAN REVIEW TOOL
The Local Mitigation Plan Review Tool demonstrates how the Local Mitigation Plan meets
the regulation in 44 CFR §201.6 and offers States and FEMA Mitigation Planners an
opportunity to provide feedback to the community.
• The Regulation Checklist provides a summary of FEMA's evaluation of whether the
Plan has addressed all requirements.
• The Plan Assessment identifies the plan's strengths as well as documents areas for
future improvement.
• The Multi -jurisdiction Summary Sheet is an optional worksheet that can be used to
document how each jurisdiction met the requirements of the each Element of the
Plan (Planning Process; Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment; Mitigation
Strategy; Plan Review, Evaluation, and Implementation; and Plan Adoption).
The FEMA Mitigation Planner must reference this Local Mitigation Plan Review Guide when
completing the Local Mitigation Plan Review Tool.

SECTION 1:
REGULATION CHECKLIST
INSTRUCTIONS: The Regulation Checklist must be completed by FEMA. The purpose of the
Checklist is to identify the location of relevant or applicable content in the Plan by
Element/sub-element and to determine if each requirement has been 'Met' or 'Not Met.'
The 'Required Revisions' summary at the bottom of each Element must be completed by
FEMA to provide a clear explanation of the revisions that are required for plan approval.
Required revisions must be explained for each plan sub -element that is 'Not Met.' Sub -
elements should be referenced in each summary by using the appropriate numbers (Al, B3,
etc.), where applicable. Requirements for each Element and sub -element are described in
detail in this Plan Review Guide in Section 4, Regulation Checklist.
