SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background The National Flood Insurance Act of 1968 created the National Flood Insurance Program NFIP, which is administered by the Federal Emergency Management Agency FEMA.1 The NFIP enables property owners in participating communities to purchase flood insurance if the community has adopted floodplain management ordinances and minimum standards for new and substantially damaged or improved construction. Thus, in participating communities, Federallybacked flood insurance is available for property owners in flood risk areas.
Congress expanded the NFIP by enacting the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973 FDPA.2 The FDPA made the purchase of flood insurance mandatory in connection with loans made by Federally-regulated lending institutions when the loans are secured by improved real estate or mobile homes located in a special flood hazard area SFHA. The National Flood Insurance Reform Act of 1994 the Reform Act Title V of the Riegle Community Development and Regulatory Improvement Act of 1994
comprehensively revised the Federal flood insurance statutes.3 The Reform Act required the OCC, Board, FDIC, Office of Thrift Supervision OTS, and NCUA to revise their flood insurance regulations, and required the FCA to promulgate a flood insurance regulation for the first time. The OCC, Board, FDIC, OTS, FCA, and NCUA 4 fulfilled these requirements by issuing a joint final rule in the summer of 1996.5
Since 1997, the Interagency Questions and Answers 6 have provided the 1 Public
