National Resilience Standards for Flood Proofing Products Project Fact Sheet

The Department of Homeland Security Science and Technology Directorate (S&T) recognizes this critical need as an opportunity to develop new standards to test and certify additional product categories for semi-permanent flood barriers and seal-ants, as well as S&T funded low cost flood sensors. To develop the new standards, S&T is partnering with the Association of State Floodplain Managers (ASFPM) to expand the National Flood Barrier Testing and Certification Program (NFBTCP) to include standards and testing for the new flood proofing product categories.
