Flood Awareness – Protecting your home from flooding

Nassau County Insider
April 27, 2021

In observance of Flood Awareness Month, we have provided information on protecting your property from flooding.

 

In addition to knowing your flood zone and purchasing flood insurance, you can further reduce your risk by making small improvements to your home or business.

Click here for a flyer from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) which outlines low-cost projects you can do yourself to protect your property. Examples include cleaning gutters and downspouts, installing a rain barrel, and elevating electrical system components, just to name a few.
