    Jerauld County is in the process of updating its disaster mitigation plan.  A series of planning meetings is being held this year to gather information for the

    Prior to Meeting #3, a draft copy of the completed plan will be distributed to the planning team.  The draft will be reviewed at the next meeting, at which
