FDR1 - 1 Flood Risk management History/Mission/Policies

FDR1 - 2 Flood Control vs. Flood Risk Management  Floods have occurred throughout time, and are not necessarily damaging  Early legislation authorized “flood control” in response to devastating losses  We can’t really control floods, but we can modify water flows in space and time  Corps’ mission is to assist with and provide leadership in managing flood risk; this includes making Federal investments for reducing damages from floods, hence FDR

FDR1 - 3 Flood Risk Management Plan  “A complete description of a plan includes all structural, nonstructural, legal, and institutional features, both proposed and existing, that contribute to the intended flood control outputs.” EP Jul 99, 13-8.

FDR1 - 4 Flood Risk Management Beginnings  Swamp Acts 1849, 1850  Mississippi River Commission 1879  California Debris Commission 1893  Flood Control Act of 1917  Flood Control Act of 1936

FDR1 - 5 Federal Interest Development  Flood Control Act (FCA) of 1944  Section 206 of the Flood Control Act of 1960  Executive Order  Section 73 of Public Law (FCA 74)  Water Resources Development Act (WRDA) of 1986

FDR1 - 6 Nonstructural Highlights  FCA 1938—land acquisition approved  National Flood Insurance Act (1968)  P&S (1973)—planning process to include nonstructural  Sec. 73 WRDA 1974—required consideration of nonstructural measures for flood control

FDR1 - 7 Nonstructural Highlights  EO (1977)—agency role in flood plain management  Revisions to P&S (1979)—nonstructural plan required  Principles and Guidelines (1983)

FDR1 - 8 Nonstructural Highlights  WRDA 1986 – Established local cost sharing advantages over structural  WRDA 1986 – Section 402, requires local participation in NFIP for Corps flood projects  WRDA 1986 – Section 905, requires that feasibility reports include “a description of a nonstructural alternative to the recommended plan when such plan does not contain significant nonstructural features”  WRDA Section 219, changes benefit computation

FDR1 - 9 Corps Programs for Flood Risk Management  General Investigations  Continuing Authorities  Section 14 - Emergency Streambank and Shoreline Protection (1946)  Section Flood Damage Reduction (1948)  Section Snagging and Clearing (1937)  Operation and Maintenance  Section Review of Completed Projects (1970)

FDR Evolution of Flood Risk Management Authorities and Policies  Flood Control to Flood Damage Reduction  Limited measures to a broad array  Local projects to Nationwide programs  Single purpose to multi-purpose  Growing emphasis on non-structural and flood plain management for comprehensive flood risk management

FDR Policies You Need To Know  Considered local drainage issue unless  800 cfs at the 10 year event, unless 100-year > 1,800 cfs  1-1/2 square miles drainage basin  Land development benefits can’t be claimed for structural projects, however non-structural evacuation projects may claim benefits for new uses of evacuated floodplain  Risk-based analytical framework to be used

FDR Policies You Need To Know (cont.)  Cost sharing for flood damage reduction  Cost sharing advantages for nonstructural  Flood Plain Management Plans requirement for locals  Section 308, WRDA 1990 – New structures built after June 1991 must have first floor above 100-year flood elevation, or cannot be included in benefit calculations

FDR Flood Risk Management Cost Sharing  Non-structural  Local sponsor must provide 35% of total project costs  Structural:  Local Sponsor must provide 5% up front in cash  Local Sponsor must provide LERRD  Local Sponsor must provide additional cash to bring the local share up to 35% of the total project cost  Local Sponsor’s share is limited to 50%

FDR For Further Information  Contact the National Planning Center of Expertise for Flood Risk Management at CESPD  Attend other Flood Risk Management PROSPECT Course  Check the IWR Planning References CD  Visit the FRM PCX Website at

FDR Flood Risk Management Planning Center of Expertise (FRM PCX)  Director – SPD Planning CoP POC  Dan Sulzer (Acting)  Program Manager  Eric Thaut  Core team composed of ERDC, HEC, IWR, LRD, MVD, NFPC, NWD, and SPD technical leaders & members  Virtual regional and national resources

FDR Take Away Points  The perception of what we do has changed from Flood Control to Flood Damage Reduction and is now moving towards Flood Risk Management (FRM)  There has been a growing emphasis on non- structural solutions and flood plain management  There are several policies that are critical to plan formulation of flood damage reduction measures
