      Flood Response Toolkit


      This module was developed to:
      Compile a resource for communities to use in preparing for an imminent flood event, and for the immediate response to a flood event.
      Be designed as a quick and available reference, with the entire collection of material provided on a cd and an example of each document in paper form.

      IFSMA contracted with Dewberry to create the CRS Toolkit for Iowa Communities for the Iowa Department of Natural Resources (IDNR) to help Iowa’s flood prone communities determine whether the CRS program may be a good fit for them.

      Please note there are several files that are in the link below for the CRS toolkit.  IFSMA members are working on compiling this resource into one larger file format for ease of use.
