BROOKSVILLE - The Southwest Florida Water Management District and Hernando County will conduct a public workshop next Thursday, focusing on the Centralia and Willow Sink watersheds.

Officials with the water district and the county have been working together to gather input needed to improve identification of flooding risks in the area.

The information will be used to update floodplain information and develop flood insurance maps.

Many of those maps are 10 to 13 years old and are outdated because of natural and physical changes caused by land use, development and erosion.

During the workshop, the public will be able to look at preliminary models and gather floodplain information.

The workshop is from 4 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. Thursday, July 30, at the water district's headquarters, 2379 Broad St., in Brooksville.
