Episode description

Guest: Forbes Tompkins


Intro: With the transition from winter to spring upon us, some may find themselves swapping snow shovels for sandbags. The right policies can help communities be better prepared before the next flood. Today’s guest, Forbes Tompkins, an officer for The Pew Charitable Trust’s flood-prepared communities initiative, leads work to modernize federal policies so the country’s infrastructure is more flood-ready. Today we’ll talk about solutions that can keep U.S. communities safe during the peak flood season of spring and beyond.
