A two and one-half day course addressing community planning and response options for riverine flooding. While it does not deal with specialized flooding situations such as alluvial fan floods, coastal floods, flash floods, or floods related to ice jams, the same basic planning and response procedures could apply in these unique situations. This training emphasizes how to conduct a flood fight and provides information to help communities decide if a flood fight is possible and worth the effort and cost. An examination is included.
It is recommended that you have taken the Hazardous Weather and Flooding Preparedness course before attending this class.
