About the ASFPM 2026 Conference
Tidal Basin is proud to participate in the ASFPM 2026 Conference, the nation’s leading event focused on floodplain management, resilience, and mitigation. Hosted by the Association of State Floodplain Managers, this annual conference brings together professionals from across the country to advance policies, programs, and practices that reduce flood risk and strengthen community resilience.
Taking place in 2026, the conference convenes floodplain managers, emergency management professionals, engineers, policymakers, and private sector partners to collaborate on evolving challenges in flood risk management, mitigation, and climate adaptation.
