Program details

How it works

Stephens County Emergency Management says the county floodplain program exists to promote public health, safety, and general welfare and to minimize public and private losses due to flood conditions. The county states that all construction activity in FEMA-designated floodplains must be an approved permitted activity.

What the money covers

This is not a money program. It is a county permitting and oversight service related to floodplain construction.

How to apply

Applications are available in the forms section of the county Emergency Management website. The county provides separate residential and oil & gas/commercial floodplain permit applications.

Timing and deadlines

The county page reviewed does not state a deadline or application window. It presents the permit process as an ongoing county requirement for applicable work inside FEMA-designated floodplains.
