Floodplain Management & Liability Reporter

The water group at Downey Brand is pleased to announce its involvement with a new monthly publication, the Floodplain Management & Liability Reporter, published by Argent Communications. The first edition is attached for your use at no charge. Downey Brand’s Scott Shapiro and Andrea Clark are involved in the reporter as Editor-in-Chief and Editor, respectively. The publication has a national geographic scope and covers a broad range of issues related to floodplain management and liability that may interest you.

Throughout the year, the Reporter will focus on as many key aspects of floodplain management and liability as possible, including: water resource storage, water resource channeling and diversion; flood hazard mitigation; water allocation based on changing weather patterns and climate change; NFIP and state insurance; flood prevention and preparedness; disaster recovery; water supply and land use; the ability to insure against flood liability; lender liability; and economic evaluation of water supply and flood loss. While the other Reporters published by Argent are written primarily by contributing editors who are attorneys, Floodplain Management & Liability Reporter’s experts consist of attorneys, floodplain managers, economists, and engineers.

In order to make the information in Floodplain Management & Liability Reporter affordable for the broadest range of subscribers at the lowest cost possible, the publication will only be delivered electronically, via email of a monthly PDF. (This has the added benefit of reducing carbon footprints). If you are interested in subscribing to the Floodplain Management & Liability Reporter, please contact Argent Communications directly (1-800-419-2741) and request the Charter Subscriber discount. The discount is available through November 15, 2009.
