Citing Governor Bruce Babbitt's proclamation declaring December "Flood Awareness Month," Wesley Steiner, Department of Water Resources Director, and Charles Ott, Director of the Division of Emergency Services, have urged Arizonans to be aware of possible flood hazards and to take advantage of the National Flood Insurance Program. The program was established by Congress to enable property owners to purchase flood insurance at reasonable rates. Policies are available through any Arizona licensed insurance agent or broker.
