Lunch & Learn: Land Use Strategies for Managing Flood Risk- No Adverse Impact Floodplain Stewardship

About this event


Description: 
The No Adverse Impact (NAI) approach to flood risk management and floodplain stewardship provides local planners and floodplain professionals with an approach to floodplain administration that is beneficial, legally defensible, palatable, and understandable to the community as a whole. It is based on the principle that the actions of one property owner should not be allowed to adversely affect the rights or property of other members of the community. This holistic approach to flood-risk management encompasses a variety of strategies and tools that can be used to integrate NAI principles into local land use management programs. These NAI approaches help communities fulfill their responsibilities for promoting health, safety and public welfare and protecting property within their communities.
This presentation will provide a better understanding of the No Adverse Impact approach to floodplain stewardship, inspire integration of NAI into local land use management programs, and provide concrete examples of how communities have incorporated NAI principles into their communities’ programs.


This event is free. Continuing education credits are not available. 


Presenters: Janet Thigpen, CFM and Terri Turner, CFM, AIPC, Co-Chairs of the Association of State Floodplain Managers (ASFPM) and the No Adverse Impact (NAI) Committee
