Flood Hazard Permits

Flood Hazard Permits
Any work within flood plains, as identified by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) maps, requires project review and approval to ensure potential impacts on floodways are adequately considered.

Anchorage Flood Hazard Mitigation Plan
The Municipality of Anchorage has initiated a planning process to develop an All-Hazard Mitigation Plan to reduce the amount of damage that occurs during a disaster event. Initially, the plan is focusing on earthquakes, wildfires, and extreme weather events. Eventually, the plan will be expanded to address all the hazards Anchorage residents are exposed to. Public involvement is a valued part of this planning process and responses to the survey will be a helpful tool in development of an effective Hazard Mitigation Plan.
