Floodplain Management Association (FMA)

The Floodplain Management Association (FMA) is a professional organization dedicated to promoting effective strategies for managing floodplains—areas near rivers and streams prone to flooding. Its goal is to reduce flood risks, protect communities, and support sustainable development through education, advocacy, and sharing best practices among engineers, planners, and policymakers. By fostering collaboration and knowledge exchange, the FMA helps ensure that floodplain management is science-based, resilient, and effective in safeguarding lives, property, and the environment.
