<br />Acknowledgments <br /> <br />This summary was prepared under the direction of the Natural Hazards <br />Research and Applications Information Center, University of Colorado at <br />Boulder, and is based on the full report prepared by L.R. Johnston Associ- <br />ates. Both reports resulted from contractual arrangements ,....ith the Tennessee <br />Valley Authority, which managed the national assessment cITon for the Inter- <br />agency Task Force. Principal authors of the ('....0 reports were Jacquelyn L. <br />~1onday and the late Larry R. Johnston, respectively. <br />Countless others contributed support, information, and ideas. The <br />Federal Interagency Floodplain t\:tanagement Task Force provided funding <br />for this study, and an Advisory Committee of the Task Force '....as created to <br />provide direction and guidance throughout the \....ork effort, including review <br />of draft reports. The Association of State Floodplain rvIanagers and the Asso- <br />ciation of \Vetland !vIanagers devoted a portion of their annual conferences to <br />provide information and input to the process. A National Review Committee, <br />comprised of recognized experts and chaired by Gilbert F. \.Vhite (one of the <br />true pioneers of the floodplain management movement that began around <br />50 years ago) added valuable insight and proposed an Action Agenda. !vIany <br />individuals, including those representing government agencies and profes- <br />sional and nonprofit organizations, also made important contributions by <br />providing information, data, insights, and perspectives. <br /> <br />James M.
