The workshop is to help flooded property owners, residential or commercial, implement appropriate floodproofing techniques to achieve long-term damage reduction. A national floodproofing expert will conduct the daylong workshop. Types of floodproofing, when and where to use floodproofing options and costs will be covered along with floodproofing funding sources and flood insurance. Floodproofing options include sealants, closures, floodwalls, inflatable barriers, elevation and relocation. SMC is encouraging consultants and contractors who do provide floodproofing services and products to send information for those attending the workshop.
Space is limited.
Pre-registration is required by April 4th. The workshop is part of SMC's annual Flood Awareness Week scheduled this year for April 9-13.
