Flood Insurance Program Act of 1968. This report provides background information on FEMA’s flood map modernization initiative & discusses recent related concerns, such as the recognition of flood hazard studies needed after Hurricane Katrina, the completion of timely regular updates of digital flood insurance rate maps, & the fate of the initiative under the Dept. of Homeland Security.
