AI-generated summary — verify against full text

This bill directs the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to prioritize planning and implementation of nonstructural flood risk management solutions—such as structure elevation, floodproofing, and property acquisition—alongside structural approaches like levees and floodwalls. The bill requires the Corps to resume any nonstructural flood studies or projects paused since January 20, 2025, and mandates regular reporting to non-federal stakeholders and Congress on project status and timelines. It also establishes a national nonstructural committee and working group to build technical capacity and enhance community engagement in flood mitigation efforts.
