BURLINGTON, IOWA (AP) -- The Rebuild Iowa Office has announced five community seminars will be held this summer across the state to help residents understand the flooding of 2008 and how to better prepare for future flooding.
   
The first seminar will be Wednesday at the Burlington City Council Chambers. The event is called "Anatomy of Iowa Floods: Preparing for the Future." The other seminars are scheduled through July in Marion, Waverly, Mason City and Ames.
   
The Center for Global and Regional Environmental Research at the University of Iowa is hosting the seminars along with other statewide agencies and organizations.
