Delta County’s flood insurance rate map update is nearing completion. The new maps will provide Delta County and Communities with more accurate flood risk information that can help local officials and residents make informed decisions about reducing flood risks and purchasing flood insurance.
Saguache County’s flood insurance rate map update is nearing completion. The new maps will provide Saguache County and the Town of Saguache with more accurate flood risk information that can help local officials and residents make informed decisions about reducing flood risks and purchasing flood insurance.

FEMA, the state, local officials and nonprofit organizations continue to work with hundreds of households displaced from their homes after Hurricane Michael. FEMA is currently providing temporary housing units for about 500 families. FEMA and its partners have helped more than 400 families achieve a more permanent housing solution.
The Direct Housing program ends April 11, 2020. Thereafter, FEMA will collect monthly rent and possible fees if occupants continue to live in their FEMA-provided temporary housing unit(s).
AGENCY: FEDERAL EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT AGENCY, U.S. DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY
ACTION: NOTICE REPORTING ON FEMA’S PROCUREMENT OF REINSURANCE FOR THE NATIONAL FLOOD INSURANCE PROGRAM PURSUANT TO THE REVISED AGREEMENT ON GOVERNMENT PROCUREMENT (April 6, 2014) .
The Federal Emergency Management Agency (“FEMA”) will be procuring reinsurance for the National Flood Insurance Program (“NFIP”) to be effective on or about January 1, 2019. To participate in the reinsurance procurement, vendors must submit a request to participate by November 19, 2018, and final tenders by November 29, 2018.
SACRAMENTO, Calif. – Survivors who registered with FEMA for federal assistance due to one of California’s two 2020 wildfire disaster declarations receive letters containing the agency’s response to their application and the reason for that determination.
Using big data, FEMA’s modeling of the 18.1 million buildings constructed in the United States since 2000 has found the nation has saved $1.6 billion every year. These savings represent the cumulative losses avoided when structures follow International Codes or similar building codes that mitigate flood, hurricane and earthquake damage. FEMA projects that by 2040, the nation will save around $3.2 billion per year. This adds up to almost $133 billion in total losses avoided from 2000 to 2040.

Logistics Supply Chain Management System Cloud (LSCMS-C) Access Control Form
The LSCMS-C User Request form is used for individuals of a TSP who require an LSCMS-C account to access the Carrier Document Upload and/or Web Tenders role within LSCMS-C. The LSMCS-C user request form submittal begins the onboarding process for a newly applying TSP.
FEMA’s landmark study, “Building Codes Save: A Nationwide Study,” shows that modern building codes lead to major reduction in property losses from natural disasters. The FEMA report calculates losses from three types of natural hazard (earthquakes, flooding, and hurricane winds) for each state and Washington, D.C.
FEMA P-2020, Spanish Version: Los Huracanes Irma y Maria en Puerto Rico
En respuesta a los Huracanes Irma y María, la Agencia Federal para el Manejo de Emergencias (FEMA, por sus siglas en inglés) formó un Equipo de Evaluación de Mitigación (MAT, por sus siglas en inglés) para evaluar daños, documentar observaciones, y, con base en estas, ofrecer conclusiones y recomendaciones relativas al desempeño de los edifcios y otras estructuras que fueron afectados por las fuerzas de viento, inundaciones, y otros peligros de los huracanes.
Guidelines for Post-Earthquake Repair and Retrofit of Buildings Based on Assessment of Performance-Critical Damage (FEMA P-2335)
Repair of damaged buildings is critical for community recovery after earthquake disasters, and in turn, for overall resilience. NEHRP has had statutory requirements to use research results, new knowledge, and lessons learned evidence to support the preparation, maintenance, and wide dissemination of seismic resistant design guidance for more than 40 years. The 1998 FEMA 306, 307, 308 suite of guidance, Evaluation of Earthquake Damaged Concrete and Masonry Wall Buildings, provided a groundbreaking framework for detailed engineering assessments of residual strength in earthquake damaged concrete wall buildings and set the state of practice for seismic structural engineering in the US for more than 20 years. This new document provides the next-generation methodology for assessing and repairing earthquake-damaged buildings. Findings and research completed in New Zealand after the 2011 Christchurch Earthquake, as well as new information and an evolving understanding of the effects of damage to structural components that have experienced strong shaking and their residual capacities for future earthquakes, prompted a review and update of the original FEMA documents. The result defines more accurate way of determining when only cosmetic repairs are needed, structural repairs are required for safety, and repairs and retrofit are required for safety. This work was conducted by highly respected members of the seismic structural engineering communities in the United States and New Zealand and has the potential to significantly reduce a community’s recovery time and costs after an earthquake disaster.
