ASFPM issues two RFPs for NAI How-To Guides

ASFPM is seeking a qualified consultant to lead the development of two No Adverse Impact (NAI) “How-To” guides for Infrastructure and Mitigation Actions. Proposals are due October 19, 2012. The ASFPM’s NAI approach to floodplain management embraces the “do no harm” principle. For the last decade, ASFPM has been developing tools, materials and other information related to NAI. One of the most popular publications, the NAI Toolkit identifies seven “building blocks” on which a local NAI program can be built.
It is envisioned that the “How-To” guide development process will include the consultant working collaboratively with a volunteer group of subject matter experts from ASFPM’s NAI and other policy committees. The final deliverable is due May 1, 2013.
