To amend the Food Security Act of 1985 to add the emergency watershed program as a covered program for purposes of carrying out the regional conservation partnership program, and for other purposes.
The FLOOD Act amends federal farm conservation law to include emergency watershed protection measures as part of the regional conservation partnership program under the Food Security Act of 1985. This change allows farmers and landowners to better access federal conservation funding and assistance when dealing with watershed damage from disasters like flooding. The bill expands existing conservation programs to help agricultural communities recover from natural disasters by integrating emergency watershed protection into a broader partnership framework. No specific funding amounts or implementation timelines are detailed in the legislative text provided. The bill was introduced in July 2026 and referred to the House Committee on Agriculture.
