Risk MAP: An Update to NFDA Doug Bellomo April 6, 2009 2009 NFDA Retreat & Conference “Risk MAP--Foundation, Transition, Integration” Purpose of Presentation Thank You Update on current FEMA initiatives • eLOMA • Transition to Digital Maps Status of Map Modernization Overview of Risk MAP Risk Analysis Division — Risk MAP eLOMA Signed MOU with NFDA in Dec. 2008 on coordinating training and usage of eLOMA Working with NFDA on oversight and certification strategy for eLOMA usage Excited to give access to new users We stand ready to get new certified users access to eLOMA Risk Analysis Division — Risk MAP Transition to Digital Maps October 1, 2009 • FEMA will only provide digital flood hazard maps and flood insurance studies Except • Communities receiving updated flood hazard maps will receive paper copies of their maps and study Impact map updates with effective dates of 4/1/2010 and later Risk Analysis Division — Risk MAP Transition to Digital Maps Risk Analysis Division — Risk MAP The Benefits of Digital • Significant advantages in capability and precision • Reduce costs associated with paper map production, handling and storage • Encourage use of quality local data • Enable stakeholders who have already adopted digital technology to use it for NFIP purposes Map Mod to Risk MAP Map Mod Map brought NFIP mapping into 21st century In 2009, efforts continue to reach program goals: • Build a digital GIS platform for flood hazard maps production and accessibility • Develop flood hazard maps for 92% of population and make available through new platform. • Ensure 75% of flood hazard boundaries meet standards for horizontal accuracy. • Refresh 30% of flood hazard data Risk MAP builds on success of Map Mod Risk Analysis Division — Risk MAP What is Risk MAP? Identify Risk 1 Map Risk Data Transfer Risk Risk MAP Reduce Risk Mitigate Risk 4 REDUCE LOSS OF LIFE & PROPERTY Plan for Risk Assess Risk 2 Assess Present & Future Risks Goal – Measure Quantifiable Risk Reduction 3 Communicate Risk Risk Analysis Division — Risk MAP A seamless program of flood hazard mapping, risk assessment tools, and mitigation planning • Established in order to leverage the successes of Map Modernization and further enhance the usability and value of flood hazard mapping • Intended to encourage beneficial partnerships and innovative uses of flood hazard and risk assessment data in order to maximize flood loss reduction Vision Risk Analysis Division — Risk MAP Through collaboration with State, Local, and Tribal entities, Risk MAP will deliver quality data that increases public awareness and leads to action that reduces risk to life and property. Risk MAP and NFDA Risk Analysis Division — Risk MAP What will stay the same? • Rules and regulations familiar to NFDA • FEMA’s customer focus and successful relationship with NFDA What will change? • Encourage the leveraging of data to include other natural hazards • Increased public awareness about risk • Collaborate to promote a more sophisticated message on risk Risk Analysis Division — Risk MAP Flood Hazard Data 70% 60% Percent of Total Miles to Study Goal 1: Address gaps in flood hazard data to form a solid foundation for risk assessment, floodplain management and actuarial soundness of the National Flood Insurance Program. 50% Detailed Study 40% Approx/Redelin Total Formula Detailed Study 30% Approx/Redelin 20% 10% 0% 1 2 3 4 5 6 Decile Flood Study Determination by Type 7 8 9 10 Public Awareness/Outreach Goal 2: Ensure that a measurable increase of the public’s awareness and understanding of risk results in a measurable reduction of current and future vulnerability. Risk Analysis Division — Risk MAP Hazard Mitigation Planning Goal 3: Lead and support States, local, and Tribal communities to effectively engage in risk-based mitigation planning resulting in sustainable actions that reduce or eliminate risks to life and property from natural hazards. Risk Analysis Division — Risk MAP Enhanced Digital Platform Goal 4: Provide an enhanced digital platform that improves management of Risk MAP, stewards information produced by Risk MAP, and improves communication and sharing of risk data and related products to all levels of government and the public. Risk Analysis Division — Risk MAP Alignment and Synergies Goal 5: Align Risk Analysis programs and develop synergies to enhance decision making capabilities through effective risk communication and management. Risk Analysis Division — Risk MAP Objectives Risk Analysis Division — Risk MAP Assess the Nation’s flood risk and use this information to increase public awareness of risk • A consistent, quantitative flood risk assessment to track progress toward reducing flood risk Increase public awareness of risk from natural hazards • Establish a baseline of local knowledge and understanding of risk management concepts Ensure 80 percent of Nation’s flood hazards are current • The flood hazard data must be new, updated, or deemed still valid Continue to meet statutory NFIP requirements by assessing, on a watershed basis, the need to revise and update all floodplain areas and flood risk zones identified, delineated, or established Risk MAP Solution Risk Analysis Division — Risk MAP Multiple elements: • Funding engineering contractors and State and local government agencies • Stimulating Nation’s economy • Fully engaging State and local communities to develop sound, practical Hazard Mitigation Plans • Informing the public to lead to behavior change Implementing Risk MAP Program Management Contractor Roles and Responsibilities: • Risk MAP program management • Establish mutually beneficial partnerships • Provide regional program management support • Establish national Risk MAP outreach strategy • Implement business architecture Risk Analysis Division — Risk MAP Implementing Risk MAP Production and Technical Services Contractors • STARR (Regions I, V, VII, and X) • BakerAECOM (Regions IV, VIII, and IX) • RAMPP (Regions II, III, and VI) Roles and Responsibilities • Produce Risk MAP products • Advance use of Risk MAP products • Provide regional support • Establish mutually beneficial partnerships Risk Analysis Division — Risk MAP Implementing Risk MAP Risk Analysis Division — Risk MAP Customer and Data Services Contractor Roles and Responsibilities • Provide the digital platform for sharing flood mapping products • Develop and implement IT strategies and solutions for Risk MAP • Maintain the IT technical environment that supports Risk MAP • Provide knowledgeable and friendly customer service Risk Analysis Division — Risk MAP Risk MAP Timeline Core Services Transition 09 Production Ordering Transition Complete Transition Complete Regional PM Deployment PM Transition Risk MAP PM Operations Transition Complete CDS Transition Risk MAP CDS Operations Transition Complete RMC Transition PTS Mobilization PTS Transition Risk MAP PTS Operations TRANSITION Risk MAP Multi-Hazard Identification Plan Released Solution Definition Baking the Risk MAP Solution Complete Initial Enterprise Architecture Complete SOLUTION DEFINITION AND IMPLEMENTATION Capability Development and Deployment Multi-Year Planning MULTI-YEAR PLANNING Submit MIP Sequencing Tool Business Rules : Contract Award Date : Transition Complete Risk Analysis Division — Risk MAP
