Abstract: This information collection is needed to obtain feedback on the performance and successes of the Silver Jackets Program, a program that allows for the coordination of flood risk management programs and activities across federal, state, and local agencies. Respondents are state government partners on state Silver Jackets teams whose feedback and votes are needed to nominate and determine a “Silver Jackets Team of the Year.” The collection responses will also be used to recognize excellent work by teams, thank team partners for their efforts, and provide incentives for future team participation.
