Silver Jackets New Mexico Flood Risk Webinar Series

The New Mexico Department of Homeland Security partnered with New Mexico Office of the State Engineer, Dam Safety Bureau and US Army Corps of Engineers to develop an updated webinar series to inform and address flood risks and topics associated with dams, floodplains, flood after fire and alluvial fans. Many communities need post-fire technical support to understand their flood risk post-fire, possible mitigation strategies, and resources and programs to provide long-term fire recovery support. The New Mexico Post-Fire Flood Risk Education project will empower communities in New Mexico to be better prepared for flood events after wildfire season.
