Summary

Highlight any text to annotate
This bill establishes a National Flood Impact Reduction and Resilience Program designed to reduce deaths, injuries, and property damage from floods across the United States through coordinated federal efforts. The program will focus on developing flood-resistant construction methods, improving floodplain management, collecting better data on flood risks, creating flood vulnerability maps, and educating the public about flood risks and mitigation strategies. An Interagency Coordinating Committee led by the Army Corps of Engineers will oversee the program, with participation from FEMA, the National Institute of Standards and Technology, the U.S. Geological Survey, NOAA, and other federal agencies, while an advisory committee of experts from academia, industry, state and local governments will provide recommendations. The bill directs federal agencies to coordinate their flood-related budgets and activities through annual strategic and management plans, though no specific funding amounts are mentioned in the legislation. The program aims to address the billions of dollars in annual flood damages that are expected to increase in coming decades due to climate change and rising sea levels.
