The New Jersey Association for Floodplain Management (NJAFM) 18th Annual Conference will be held on October 24, 25 and 26, 2023 at the Hard Rock in Atlantic City. The conference will focus on mitigation as the cornerstone of effective floodplain management. Mitigation takes many forms - natural resource restoration, structural elevations, floodproofing, higher regulatory standards and codes, education and training, comprehensive planning, land use management, and a host of other actions.

With an increase in federal funding for hazard mitigation and infrastructure, we have a unique opportunity to work collaboratively to leverage resources and maximize investments in a broad range of actions to address chronic flood hazards now, and into the future. The conference will explore Federal and State mitigation funding programs, and provide examples of how to collaborate in the funding, design and implementation of successful mitigation projects here in New Jersey.

The NJAFM annual conference is the premier floodplain management conference in the Northeast. With more than 40 speakers and several hundred participants, this is the conference that regional floodplain managers from the public and private sector plan to attend. In addition, many consulting firms and product vendors associated with floodplain management attend as well.

The annual conference provides an opportunity for professionals in the fields of floodplain management, engineering, hydrology, geology, planning, code enforcement, emergency management and real estate to participate in Plenary Sessions and concurrent technical sessions on a broad range of relevant topics. The conference also includes a number of training and networking events designed to educate and inform conference attendees.
