ASA's Chris Galagan was a panelist at the Northeast Hurricane Mitigation Leadership Forum held on Thursday, July 10 in Newport, Rhode Island. The event was well attended by the media as the event was organized in recognition of the 70th anniversary of the devastating 1938 Northeast Hurricane. It was an invitation-only event to gather academics, scientists and public/private sector representatives to focus on the impact of severe storms and the potential advantages of hurricane risk mitigation efforts. 
Chris' discussion was on ASA's technical tools that enable inundation and flood analysis to coastal areas of potential impact from tropical storms and hurricanes. Chris was the only panelist who brought to the table a technical solution to identify flood prone areas that can help reduce vulnerability and that everyone including private property owners, businesses, emergency/civil workers, and media outlets can easily utilize.
