National Flood Safety Awareness is Week March 12-16, 2012

Flood Safety Awareness Week, sponsored by the
National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and supported by
the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), was created to highlight
the causes and consequences of flooding and educate communities on how
