Cooperating Technical Partners submit Business Plans (or an update) for each year they are awarded funding for conducting flood hazard mapping. Plans should:

1. Document the capabilities and accomplishments of the partner.
2. Explain the recipient’s vision for implementing or participating in Risk MAP.
3. Include updates from previous years’ activities (if applicable).
4. Identify flood hazard mapping needs based on physical, climatological, or engineering methodology changes and document these mapping needs.
5. Provide recommendations to FEMA regarding future Risk MAP projects within the State or local jurisdiction.

 Q & A: CTP Business Plans for Mapping

Q: With the 2D modeling with rain on grid, how do you differentiate between localized rain that doesn't cause a problem and "real flooding" that should be mapped?

A: SEMA is applying a shore lining methodology where elevations along the conveyance lines (Stream Lines) are plotted to ground and forms a SFHA for the regulatory program. The areas beyond the SFHA are provided to local floodplain managers and officials for best available information of Pluvial flooding.
