Episode Synopsis "Know Flood Newscast Ep 14 - Rod Scott, FMIA Cofounder and Flood Mitigation Advocate"

With the release of Risk Rating 2.0, it’s clear that home elevation will become the key to successful mitigation and flood insurance premium reduction.  No expert in the country advocates as hard as Rod Scott to ensure mitigation strategies are implemented and funded nationwide.  Rod is the co-founder of the Flood Mitigation Industry Association (FMIA), and overall advocate for the mitigation and elevation of flood prone buildings.  Rod talks to us about his extensive experience in the field of flood mitigation, and how he has taken the lessons learned from his hometown in Mandeville, Louisiana, (where 85% of the buildings are elevated) and worked to apply them nationally.  Listen as Tim and Joe talk to Rod about how we can educate our local officials, and Congress, to fund home elevation projects in our communities.
