It’s been over eight years since devastating floods hit southern West Virginia in 2016 and many other flooding events since then, and West Virginia is very near to having an updated flood resiliency plan. But funding for flood resiliency remains intangible. The State Resiliency Office presented a plan to members of the SRO Board during the quarterly meeting on June 13, ahead of the June 30 deadline required by the passage of Senate Bill 677 during the 2023 legislative session. Now that the state has met the June 30 deadline for the new plan, the SRO is required to conduct annual reviews of the plan completed by June 30 of each year.
