Environmental Assessment, Saxon Harbor Campground, Wisconsin, June 2019
Final Environmental Assessment - Saxon Harbor Campground
During the incident period between July 11 and July 12, 2016, heavy rains resulted in severe flooding in Iron County. Heavy rainfall and overland flooding resulted in the inundation of Saxon Harbor and the surrounding area. Raging waters ripped through the entire facility causing severe erosion. The waters coursed through the campground. Under a major disaster declaration (FEMA-4276-DR-WI) signed by the President on August 9, 2016, Iron County was included in areas within Wisconsin eligible to receive Public Assistance (PA) program funding from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). FEMA’s PA grant program provides federal assistance to government organizations and certain private nonprofit organizations following a Presidential disaster declaration. Public Assistance is authorized by Section 406 of the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act (Public Law 93-288), 42 U.S.C. § 5172. The Iron County Forestry and Parks Department applied for funding from FEMA’s PA Program to be applied to the costs for relocating the campground (DR-4276-WI, Project Worksheet 149).
