The second of five Advancing the Integration of Clean Water Act and Natural Hazard Mitigation Planning and Implementation project workshops has been rescheduled to January 2026 (prior date was November 2024) and will welcome states and communities in the Southeast. The workshop program can be reviewed here.

Dates: Rescheduled to January 21-23, 2026 (from November 13-15, 2024).

Location: Guana Tolomato Matanzas National Estuarine Research Reserve, Ponte Vedra Beach, FL

Who should attend: The focus of the training is on integrating programs to improve interagency planning and implementation of co-beneficial projects that reduce flood risk and improve water quality, among other benefits. To embed this focus on program integration, states, local community, and Tribal participants will be asked to attend in pairs. Each pair should consist of one individual who works on programs related to Clean Water Act requirements and one individual who works on programs related to natural hazard mitigation. States will participate in the training to deepen their relationship with any communities or Tribes in attendance from their state. Following the two-day workshop, NAWM and ASFPM will continue to work with each cohort to facilitate integration efforts via quarterly calls and webinars.  

If you are interested in having your community participate in an upcoming training, please see sign-up information!
