The Indiana DNR, Division of Water was nationally honored by the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s Cooperating Technical Partners program (CTP) for using technology to better communicate flood risks to Hoosiers. The division merged the National Flood Hazard Layer to create the Indiana Best Available Floodplain Layer (BAFL). BAFL includes more than 18,000 stream miles of updated floodplain information used for planning and better understanding potential flood risk. Learn more at bit.ly/2RTBd1k
