Title: Managing the ‘residual risk’ of extreme floods: Comparing the US, France and Quebec (Canada)
Abstract:
The ‘residual risk’ of extreme floods (the risk that remains after building the protective structures) can be significant, but it is often overlooked in policy and it is rarely communicated to residents of flood-prone lands. Moreover, in many areas these threatened communities are disproportionately those that have suffered structural problems of classism and racism. How is residual risk integrated into flood management policies and planning for floodplains? How is this challenge addressed under different governance structures? The RREFlood (Residual Risk of Extreme Floods) Project brings together experts from multiple disciplines from five countries: Taiwan, Vietnam, Germany, France, and United States. We share advances in knowledge and tools to support residual flood risk management, in the context of relevant sustainable development goals. In this presentation, we will focus on the study that inspired the RREFlood Project, where we analyze how the United States, France, and Quebec (Canada) manage residual risk behind levees, to see the implications of regulatory flood maps (FIRMs and equivalents) in different aspects of flood risk management (land use planning, emergency management, insurance, risk communication, etc.).
