Flood Damage Prevent Steps

1 answer

To help you organize flood damage prevention measures with the responsible entities, here are the typical responsibilities of each entity:

  1. Federal Government:

    • Funding for flood management projects
    • Setting national floodplain management policies
    • Administration of flood insurance programs (e.g., NFIP)

  2. City/County Government:

    • Implementing zoning and land-use regulations
    • Building and maintaining storm water drainage systems
    • Conducting floodplain mapping and risk assessments

  3. Home/Property Owners:

    • Maintaining proper drainage on their property
    • Elevating structures or using flood barriers
    • Purchasing flood insurance and implementing property-specific flood management measures

Feel free to match these flood damage prevention measures to the appropriate entity based on your knowledge or any specific measures you might have. If you can provide the flood damage prevention measures, I'd be happy to help you make the appropriate matches!
