<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>Montana DNRC’s Floodplain Mapping Program strives to assist local communities with floodplain mapping needs, identifying and mapping current flood risks, and providing tools to help communities reduce their flood risks and build community resiliency. This is achieved through comprehensive planning, effective outreach, and communication from DNRC mapping and community assistance staff. DNRC works hard to build trust and foster relationships with elected officials, floodplain administrators, and stakeholders.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>Local communities across Montana work with the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and Montana Department of Natural Resources and Conservation (DNRC) to update and produce new floodplain maps. Many of the existing floodplain maps are based on data from the late 1970s. Updated Flood Insurance Rate Maps will provide more accurate, current, and detailed data and mapping of flood risk areas. </SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV> |
