Hazard Plain
Hazard mitigation plan status and a risk-assessment baseline packet for every U.S. county, built from public federal data.
Each county page shows where its hazard mitigation plan stands and offers a date-stamped packet of federal data organized to FEMA's Local Mitigation Plan Review Tool, Element B. The packet is the federal starting point for the plan's risk assessment; the plan adds local data, and FEMA reviews the plan.
A county area is a county or its equivalent: a parish, borough or census area, a Virginia independent city or a Connecticut planning region. Vermont towns have packets of their own.

Plan clock across 3,232 county areas
As of 2026-09-30, 1,671 of 3,232 U.S. county areas (52%) have a county-level hazard mitigation plan that has expired, is not yet adopted, was never in place or expires within 24 months.
- 737Expired, not yet adopted or never covered
- 531Expires within 12 months
- 403Expires in 12 to 24 months
- 1,429Covered beyond 24 months
- 132Absent from FEMA plan data
Of the 737 expired, not yet adopted or never covered, 156 await local adoption of a plan FEMA approved or found approvable. The 132 absent from FEMA plan data are not in the 1,671.
Expired plan: Until a new plan is approved, FEMA mitigation project grants (HMGP, FMA) need a FEMA exception (44 CFR 201.6(a)(3)). Not yet adopted: a jurisdiction whose plan FEMA approved or found approvable is not eligible until it adopts the plan. Counts are county areas (counties, Virginia independent cities, Connecticut planning regions and equivalents), each at the status of its own plan row.
