The grant was awarded on July 2, 2019. The EDA describes the grant as follows:
"This EDA investment funds the development of a land use plan and zoning policy for the mitigation of future natural disasters in Hoopa, California, on the Hoopa Valley Reservation. Once completed, the project will provide information identifying the disaster prone areas in Humboldt County to prevent the development of new infrastructure in these designated locations. Furthermore, the project will result in increased economic resilience to strengthen the regional economy and create more employment opportunities for the region's workforce."
