1992 – Increase in State Activities and State Participants

A survey of state NFIP coordinators by ASFPM identifies an increase in state activities and state participants. The survey notes that many states participate in activities to restore and preserve the natural and cultural resources of floodplains and that many identify the environmental benefits of floodplain management as the key to obtaining wide public support. The survey reports that 39 states have more than 175 full-time equivalent personnel.
