Training opportunity for local officials:
Last year was such a success that FEMA has again agreed to state-deploy the “E273—Managing Floodplain Development through the National Flood Insurance Program” in Indiana. The course is typically offered only a few times each year at FEMA’s Emergency Management Institute in Emmitsburg, MD. FEMA Region V (Chicago) staff will be conducting the in-depth training course.
This course is designed to provide an organized training opportunity for local officials responsible for administering their local floodplain management ordinance. The course will focus on the NFIP and concepts of floodplain management, maps and studies, ordinance administration, and the relationship between floodplain management and flood insurance. Hands-on exercises are included to allow participants to better apply the information in their communities.
Local officials responsible for administering local floodplain management ordinances, including but not limited to floodplain management administrators, building inspectors, code enforcement/zoning officers, planners, city/county managers, attorneys, engineers, and public works officials. Federal/state/regional floodplain managers also are encouraged to attend. The course is designed for those officials with limited floodplain management experience. This course is excellent preparation for the Certified Floodplain Manager Exam.
For additional information or registration, please contact Anita Nance. Don't delay - registration deadline is August 2 and space is limited!
