USACE Floodplain Management Services
Deadline: June 17, 2022
The Army Corps of Engineers Chicago District planning team is seeking applicants for its Floodplain Management Services (FPMS) program. The FPMS program enables the Corps to provide services to communities to reduce flood risk. It is 100% federally funded, so no cost share is required of communities. These studies do not result in construction but can help communities better manage their local flood risk.
Common FPMS activities include: developing studies or guidance on floodplain delineation, flood hazard evaluation, flood warning/preparedness, regulatory floodway analysis, comprehensive floodplain management, flood risk reduction, urbanization impacts, storm water management, flood proofing, and inventory of flood-prone structures.
Requests are due by June 17, 2022. An informational webinar is being hosted Wednesday, May 18 at 10am CT
*IDNR/Office of Water Resources (OWR) offers very similar free engineering planning to investigate flood damage reduction feasibility as well as engineering and design services and construction funding for economically feasible projects with a willing local community sponsor.
