Flood Readiness Webinar Follow-Up Blog Post
Monday, May 18, 2020
The following is a communication from the Maryland Department of the Environment:
On Tuesday, May 12, 2020, the Ocean Pines Association and Maryland Department of the Environment (MDE) hosted a flood readiness webinar for Ocean Pines residents to learn more about their flood risk, options for purchasing flood insurance, and actions they can take to reduce their flood risk.
With support from the Maryland Emergency Management Agency (MEMA), The Maryland Insurance Administration (MIA), and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Region III, the webinar featured local and regional flood risk and flood insurance experts who discussed flooding and stormwater issues facing the Ocean Pines community, and how residents can protect themselves and their property.
Some of the topics discussing during the webinar included:
Common types of flooding in Ocean Pines
Using flood maps to determine your flood risk
Other ways of understanding your flood risk
Ways to reduce risk of flood damage to your home or property
Homeowners and flood insurance – what is covered?
Standing water issues around your home or property
For those that missed the webinar, a recording can be found on the Ocean Pines Association YouTube page at the following link:
