Findlay and Hancock County is getting money from the Federal Emergency Management Agency to continue their flood mitigation efforts. They have been conditionally approved for a 24 million dollar flood hazard mitigation grant, and that money will be used for two major projects. 19 million dollars will be used to construct the Eagle Creek Flood Basin, which is considered a cornerstone of the city and county's flood mitigation plan. The total project cost is 60 million dollars; the rest of the money came from the State of Ohio.
