| Abstract | According to the Federal Emergency Management Agency's (FEMA's) research on historical flood risk, 98 percent of U.S. counties have been impacted by a flooding event. Not only do flood events occur in and impact all regions of the United States, but they are also costly. Therefore, it is in the interest of communities for institutions of higher education (IHEs) to prepare for floods and participate in mitigation, protection, prevention, response, and recovery efforts. This publication begins with an introduction to the National Weather Service (NWS) flood-related information statements from Flood Advisory to Flash Flood Warning and Flood Warning. The report then discusses the six-step planning process established in the 2013 "Guide for Developing High-Quality Emergency Operations Plans for Institutions of Higher Education (IHE Guide)" (see ED571877). Lastly, activities that may be utilized by nonpublic and public IHEs, including 4-year and 2-year IHEs, before, during, and after flood events are described. A list of key resources is also provided.
