2011 NeFSMA Conference - Coordinated Needs Management Strategy and RiskMAP

How Coordinated Needs Management Strategy (CNMS) will be used in RiskMAP - Jason Schneider, Greenhorne and O'Mara

CNMS is a FEMA initiative to update the way FEMA organizes, stores and analyzes flood hazard mapping needs information for communities.  During RiskMAP CNMS will be used as FEMA’s source to define “need” in a particular watershed and the mechanism for reporting NVUE.  CNMS in Nebraska is completed now, how can it be used at the Regional level, State Level and Local Level.  CNMS allow for unmet needs and request to be stored and evaluated for future projects.
