1984 – Interagency Task Force on Floodplain Management (ITF-TF)

In a demonstration of the importance of federal partners, Frank Thomas, FEMA; Jerry Peterson, US Army Corps of Engineers; and Jim Wright, Tennessee Valley Authority, were an integral part of what was known as the Interagency Task Force on Floodplain Management (ITF-TF). They wisely invited ASFPM to participate in their meetings to update federal agencies on what states and locals were doing to manage flood risk on the ground.
