Welcome to the website of the Floodplain Management Association (FMA), formerly known as the Floodplain Management Authorities.
The Flood Mitigation Authorities as the organisation was originally known held its first conference in 1961, and was established to promote sound and responsible floodplain management, and to make representations on behalf of local government at State and Federal levels. The FMA has continued these important roles for more than 50 years and now has more than 90 members.
In 2011 by resolution at it's Annual General Meeting the FMA became known as the Floodplain Management Association.
