The course objective is to explore floodplain management aspects in a dynamic and interactive instruction that covers the following five topics in greater details: floodway standards (1 day); disconnects between National Flood Insurance Program Regulations and insurance (1 day); common noncompliance issues (½ day); digital flood insurance rate maps (DFIRMs) (½ day); and substantial improvement/substantial damage (1 day). Each topic is designed to be discussed and reviewed in greater detail than the basic course. Developed and real-life scenarios will be examined and activities will be conducted in each section to make sure participants not only understand the rules and regulations, but also why they are in place and how to apply them in the particular topic areas. This course is activity-rich and participants can expect to be engaged throughout the course.
