Emergency Guide to Flooding Preparedness

Emergency Guide to Flooding Preparedness

According to the latestΒ FEMA flood map data, 40 million people in the continental U.S. are at risk for a 100-year flood event; that’s three times more than previously estimated. Additionally, the amount of property in harm’s way is twice the current estimate.

Gathering Information

Start by putting together a communications plan to implement in the event of a flooding disaster. Questions that need answers at this point include:

  • How will your residents receive official alerts, warnings, and emergency information?
  • What is the shelter plan for your community?
  • For evacuations, what are the official routes to use?
  • How will your team broadcast flood alerts and other pertinent information to your community?
