Summary

AI-generated summary — verify against full text

The Federal Flood Risk Management Act of 2024 establishes a federal standard requiring federal agencies to reduce flood risk and improve resilience when undertaking agency actions in or affecting floodplains. The bill requires agencies to evaluate flood hazards using climate-informed science, apply elevation standards (adding 2–3 feet of freeboard above base flood elevation depending on project criticality), and consider alternatives that avoid or minimize floodplain impacts. Agencies must notify state, local, and tribal governments and allow public comment before proceeding with projects in floodplains, and must incorporate floodplain management into planning, budgeting, and permitting decisions.
