Building Industry Connect: FM Area Diversion Update

Description

Building Industry Connect: FM Diversion Update & Floodplain Remapping

Join us Nov. 17 to hear from Metro Flood Diversion Authority Director of Engineering, Kris Bakkegard, PE, CFM, one of the key individuals coordinating with FEMA on floodplain remapping. Learn what the remapping process means for future development, building requirements, permitting, flood insurance considerations and land use decisions across the region. This is a great opportunity to better understand potential impacts on current and future projects.


More about our guest: 

Kris Bakkegard became the first Metro Flood Diversion Authority director of engineering in July 2020. 

Previously, he worked for 25 years with KLJ as a civil engineer, division leader, and engineering group manager. In the latter role, he managed a production group with seven departments comprised of about 200 staff members. His experience with KLJ spanned design and project management for bridges, urban and rural roadways, and flood control projects as well as involvement with surveying, environmental work, right-of-way work, and construction. 

He’s a military veteran, having served 8 years as a combat engineer in the North Dakota Army National Guard.

Bakkegard grew up in Valley City, North Dakota, and received a Civil Engineering degree from North Dakota State University. He resides with his family in Fargo, ND. 

The BIA-RRV's Building Industry Connect sessions are a chance for our members to introduce the association and its goals. No presentations, no agendas and no parliamentary procedures. Just the chance for officials and members to learn about each other.

 Admission is $25.
