Flood Risk: The Need for Acquisitions and Buyouts – FbD Lunch & Learn Series
June 6 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm
This Lunch & Learn explores the need for acquisitions and buyouts from the perspective of Washington State EMD’s newly created Disaster Resilience Program and from research and expertise from the Delaware Disaster Research Center. Exploration includes perspectives of flood risk and how local communities are taking action to reduce post-disaster losses, with a focus on costs, time, and impacts.
Will be updated with additional details soon.
To be added to the Lunch & Learn calendar invites, email Allan Warren, awarren@b-e-f.org.
