Flood Defense Group provides HESCO Flood Barrier training to the USACE in support of the US federal emergency flood barrier supply contract to the National Flood Fight Center – Rock Island, IL

Flood Defense Group provides HESCO Flood Barrier training to increase (or sustain) the USACE readiness to react during times of flooding.

When floodwaters come, it is too late to plan. It’s too late to train. It is ‘go-time’, and everybody in the flood defense industry knows that the USACE steps in when things get bad. The USACE have the resources, the knowledge, and the experience to come in and save the day during times of flooding as they continuously do throughout the country. Their ability to deploy with necessary resources to fight floodwaters has saved countless lives, properties, and livelihood of those in harm’s way.

The National Flood Fight Center serves as the emergency procurement arm of the federal government for the supply of flood barriers and preparing for flood response operations nationwide and Flood Defense Group is honored to provide technical support and HESCO Flood Barrier training in support of this esteemed organization.

The USACE have been so successful in protecting homes communities from flooding because they plan for it, train for it, and maintain a readiness posture to execute those plans at a moments notice. It is this readiness posture that leaves this organization with the ability to supply flood barriers at a moments notice with an amazing understanding of where to expect flooding, when to expect flooding, and how to protect those in the path of incoming floodwaters from the devastating effects that flooding brings.

As a former paratrooper in the US Army, we were constantly training for the eventualities of deploying into a conflict zone to take care of the mission we were tasked to perform. During our constant training operations, we learned where our vulnerabilities lied and constantly sharpened our capability to deploy as a cohesive team. We were always provided with clear mission objectives, we had a plan, we had contingency plan if things went wrong, and more than anything else, we were ready deploy within hours at a moment’s notice. The USACE is clearly a well-equipped extension of the US Military and just like any other unit within the US Military, the personnel at the Rock Island Flood Fight Center are no different. They make plans, contingency plans, and train to execute those plans for a successful completion of the flood-fight mission they are tasked to perform.

Flood Defense Group is regularly involved with the training and support of governmental and private organizations throughout the USA when it comes to specifying, supplying, and installing temporary flood barriers and/or hardening your perimeter from the intrusion of flood water. It is significantly less expensive to plan for a flood than it is to clean up after one!

In this case, we provided training on HESCO barriers which are the most widely used flood defense barrier by governmental organizations in the USA. The HESCO flood barrier is hugely popular for a variety of reasons which includes its relatively inexpensive price, track record of performance, and ability to stop the most violent of flood waters. Most flood barriers on the market can be expected to stop rising flood water but what happens if you are encountering the impact of wave action during a hurricane storm surge? What happens if you are trying to stop debris flows associated with flooding over a burn scar from a recent forest fire? What about debris impact from trees, logs, and other objects floating by during a violent flood event? Flood Defense Group has the largest selection of flood defense barriers in the USA, and we confirm that these are some of the reasons why the HESCO barrier has remained the ‘go-to’ option when it comes to deploying flood protection over vast distances against violent flood events. This product has been proven to be effective time and time again and it is easy to work with.

This flood barrier training event included details of the design, planning, construction, and capabilities of HESCO. We discussed deployment of the product, stacking the product to achieve great heights, and the ability to modify this product to work in the most difficult of locations. The USACE are already experts when it comes to flood response, and we are humbled at the invitation to provide this training which was well received with great reviews.

Are You Prepared For An Incoming Flood?

Flood Defense Group understands that it is not exciting to purchase flood barriers in the USA but that does not change the fact that flooding will continue to happen and will likely get worse. Even if you are not ready to purchase flood barriers, you can still make a plan!! Here are some of the things you can do to prepare for a flood even if you are not ready to make a purchase.

  • Identify the flood barriers that will work for your location
    It does not cost anything to figure out what type of flood barrier will work best for you. It can be a bit of a process trying to figure out what your options are to protect a home from flooding or even an entire community. When it comes time to protect yourself from flooding, it is often too late to figure this out so do it now! Whether you are using materials from the local hardware store to create a DIY flood defense barrier, or a temporary flood barrier designed for flood defense, we are always happy to help with this at no charge. Give us a call! If you want us to travel to your location to provide a flood barrier assessment, Flood Defense Group can assist with this at a cost, but we are always happy to help with this for free through speaking on the phone or reviewing photos/videos via email.

  • Identify flood water depth and take measurements
    Most governmental, commercial, and residential flood barrier users have an idea of how tall their barrier needs to be to protect against flood waters. If you are unsure, do some research and try to nail down the protective height required of your flood barrier and measure out how many linear feet of protection you need. This is a relatively simple process, but it takes time to figure out and time is one of your most crucial resources when fighting a flood.
  • Quantify your solutions
    You may have multiple solutions that will provide adequate protection against a flood and figuring out how much you need and more specifically, how much it will cost, is wise to figure out. When flood waters are coming, wouldn’t you prefer to already have these details figured out? It doesn’t cost anything to figure out!
  • How fast can you get flood barriers to protect against flooding?
    When a cat 5 hurricane is on the horizon for example, your time to get flood barriers is limited. You often lack the 3-5 day lead time to have flood barriers delivered. Additionally, shipping companies and mail services are often shut down in the days leading up to a hurricane impact. Roads may be closed and/or access to the flood effected area can become limited. It is unfortunate when you are ‘a day late and a dollar short’ when working to protect a house from flooding immediately prior to a flood event so it is wise to figure out what your options are prior to a flood arriving.
  • Make contingency plans!
    What happens if you cannot afford a flood barrier or have flood barriers delivered in time? Did you cost out multiple solutions just in case one can’t be delivered for any reason? It is common for flood barrier suppliers to sell out of flood barrier stock immediately prior to a flood event. If this happens, do you have a Plan B? If you only have time to go to the local hardware store to procure materials, do you know exactly what you need? Flood Defense Group wants to help, so even if you are not looking to purchase a temporary flood barrier, we are happy to take the time to discuss DIY flood protection if that is what the situation dictates.  Whether it be flood barrier training or discussion about product suitability or help with a DIY flood barrier, we are happy to discuss it with you an help in any way we can.

Make a Plan!
Make a Plan!!
Make a Plan!!!

If you are serious about giving it your best effort to protect yourself from flooding, make a plan before the flood water shows up. This is a fitting situation for the expression ‘If You Fail to Plan, You Plan to Fail’. If failure to protect against flood water is not an option, we suggest taking serious efforts to start making a plan, quantifying solutions, and be ready to react before the commodity of time runs out!

With this in mind, and as a proud American, I have pride in what I have seen in the USACE. Their constant planning, training, and readiness posture to deploy for the protection of those in need during a flood event is something to be emulated. Whether you are trying to protect your home from flooding, your business from flooding, or an entire community, the USACE have set the example of being ready. If flooding is something you are subject to experiencing, we suggest taking the initial steps to ready before floodwaters arrive!

Water Filled Flood Tubes Home Protection

By M M • September 27, 2024
What Are Water Filled Flood Tubes and How Can They Protect Your Home? Flooding can be a significant concern, especially in areas prone to heavy rainfall or near bodies of water. If you're seeking an effective, economical solution to manage floodwaters, water filled flood tubes might be exactly what you need. These flood barriers offer a practical, reusable option that’s both affordable and efficient. Understanding Water Filled Flood Tubes Water filled flood tubes, also known as water diversion tubes, are designed to prevent water from entering specific areas. Made from heavy-duty PVC fabric, these tubes are durable and eco-friendly. Unlike traditional sandbags, they offer a cleaner, more manageable solution for flood protection. Their design allows them to conform to uneven surfaces, providing a tight seal against potential water entry. Benefits of Water Filled Flood Tubes One of the main advantages of water filled flood tubes is their ease of use. Simply place the tubes where needed, fill them with water, and they will create a barrier to stop or redirect floodwaters. They are a cost-effective alternative to other flood barriers and do not require ongoing maintenance. When the threat of flooding subsides, draining and storing the tubes is straightforward. This makes them a practical choice for both residential and commercial use. Key Features of Water Filled Flood Tubes Water filled flood tubes offer several features that make them ideal for flood defense. They are: Durable: Made from robust PVC fabric, these tubes can withstand multiple uses and harsh conditions. Reusable: After each use, they can be drained, cleaned, and stored for future needs. Cost-Effective: They provide excellent flood protection at a lower cost compared to other barriers. Maintenance-Free: Once installed, they require no ongoing upkeep. These features contribute to their popularity as a reliable flood protection solution. Choosing the Right Flood Barrier for Your Needs When selecting a flood barrier, it’s important to consider the specifics of your situation. Water filled flood tubes are best used on hard surfaces like concrete or paved areas. They can also be effective on grass, but additional measures, such as using a plastic liner, may be needed for soft, porous surfaces.
