Floodplain Management Association

Welcome to the
Floodplain Management Association!

FMA is the premier venue for floodplain management professionals in California, Nevada and Hawaii.

Learn more about our Anniversary PartyWe are the recognized voice in floodplain management and flood hazard reduction in the region, providing an unbiased forum for industry, science and government to coordinate and educate themselves and each other about best practices, legal strategies and disaster control needs at the local, state and regional level.

Our leadership is tasked with connecting policy makers and regulators with scientists, planners, engineers, educators and researchers to develop effective laws, technological solutions, and methods for maintaining sustainable floodplains.

To ensure all stakeholders stay current on each of our important issues, at both the governmental and NGO level, FMA continually develops and presents an ongoing series of symposiums, conferences, and workshops. Each focuses on emerging issues of the day, such as:

  • Flood risk management
  • Flood warning and forecasting
  • Flood system design, operation and maintenance
  • Flood hazard mitigation and preparedness
  • Floodplain restoration
  • Floodplain mapping
  • Public/tribal outreach, education and research
  • Emergency response
