Rodney Edwin Emmer Award This award is in recognition of meritorious activities in Floodplain Management within the State of Louisiana. The award commemorates the many years of service that Mr. Emmer gave to LFMA. He was our Executive Director from the beginning of time until he passed in 2009. He was always there and his opinions were highly regarded and generally followed. For 25 years, he provided leadership and a steadying influence. Mr. Emmer was a very special person who affected many lives inside and outside the Floodplain Community. Here is one “Letter to the Editor” that was sent in regards to the establishment of the Rodney E. Emmer Award.
