USACE responds to flooding in Central Florida
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), in coordination with Lake County Emergency Management and state partners, has mobilized personnel and equipment to assist with ongoing flood response efforts in Lake County following recent heavy rainfall across the region. USACE crews are providing technical assistance under PL 84-99 by providing assessments and recommendations to Lake County for the installation of high-capacity water pumps to help alleviate flooding in affected neighborhoods. The pumps are being strategically placed in coordination with local officials to support water management efforts and protect homes, infrastructure, and public safety. (USACE photo by Mark Rankin)
