US Finalizes Rule to Boost Resilience of Federal Projects Against Flooding on Wednesday
Jul 10, 2024, 09:13 AM
The United States has finalized a new rule aimed at boosting the resilience of federal buildings and projects against flooding. This measure is part of a broader effort to address the increasing climate challenges faced by the country. FEMA's new standard for flood resilience requires assessing risk at both current and future levels to better anticipate climate impacts. This forward-thinking approach to flood insurance is especially critical for homeowners in coastal regions, where the risk of flooding is more pronounced. The rule, finalized on Wednesday, is intended to help save taxpayers money by mitigating the financial impacts of climate change.
