Flood Safety Week - A Message from MSD

MSD Logo

This week, March 16-22, is Flood Safety Week. Floods are the most severe natural disaster in Louisville Metro according to the Louisville Metro Multi-Hazards Mitigation Plan. Flooding can occur from the Ohio River, interior streams, or a dam or levee failure. River floods generally develop slowly over several days or weeks, but flash flood from heavy rains or a dam or levee failure can occur in just a few minutes. Everyone should be aware of the flood hazards and be prepared.

To find out if your property is located in a floodplain, visit: http://apps.lojic.org/msdflood­determination/

Did you know homeowner’s insurance does not cover flood damage? Just a few inches of water from a flood can cause tens of thousands of dollars in damage. Protect yourself and your home by calling your insurance agent to learn more about flood insurance or by going to www.floodsmart.gov.
