A fundamental goal for this certification is to help reduce the State’s flood losses and protect and enhance the natural resources and functions of its floodplains by improving the knowledge and abilities of floodplain managers in the State.  The CFM program was developed by and is administered by the Association of State Floodplain Managers (ASFPM).  A complete discussion of the CFM program can be read by clicking here.
