The Louisiana State University Agricultural Center's Cooperative Extension Service maintains an extensive Web site with information about various types of flooding – from hurricane storm surge to flash floods. The site has sections on flood conditions, safety and recovery, emergency protection, and flood damage prevention. It provides numerous publications on flood mitigation and flood proofing, including a document prepared by the Extension Service entitled "Beyond the Basics" on flood risk and flood protection.
