2004 – Comprehensive State Program Reports Published

The association releases two complementary reports that provide a complete picture of state floodplain management concepts and practice. In Effective State Floodplain Management Programs, we outline 10 principles that characterize effective state floodplain management programs and lay out a blueprint for states on the policies, regulations, and activities that protect floodplains and minimize losses. In Floodplain Management 2003: State and Local Programs, we provide the most complete national summary of the practice of floodplain management at the state and local levels.
