As winter storms bring more snow to North Dakota, residents are already concerned about flooding during the spring melt. While water levels may not be as high as those experienced during state-wide flooding in 2011, spring storms were severe enough last year to prompt the declaration of a major presidential disaster. Protecting the state from widespread flooding and the extensive damage that it can cause to infrastructure and properties is now a priority. To address the issue, a number of flood prevention programs are already well established, while a newly proposed management plan aims to make better use of data and upgraded technology to implement more extensive flood alleviation schemes.
