Welcome to the Wisconsin Association for Floodplain, Stormwater,
and Coastal Management. We represent the Wisconsin chapter for
the State Association of Floodplain Managers.
The Wisconsin Association for Floodplain, Stormwater,
and Coastal Management promotes the common interest in floodplain,
stormwater, and coastal management, to enhance cooperation between
the various elated private, local, regional, state, and federal
agencies; and encourages and ensures effective, new and innovate
approaches to managing the state's floodplain, stormwater, and
coastal systems.
The organization was formed as an association in
2000 and currently has over 200 members. In 2004, the Association
applied and was granted Chapter status by the national organization,
Association of State Floodplain Managers. In 2009, the Annual Conference was expanded and was held as a joint effort with the Minnesota Association of Floodplain Managers. Efforts are being made to include both local and regional activities in the future. In 2010 we would like
to expand our membership and hope to become more active in the
State through the Association's committees and workshops.
