摘要
After reviewing two core flood hazard mitigation policies within the United States-the 100-year standard and the National Flood Insurance Program-this discussion focuses upon policy recommendations for improving flood hazard mitigation in the US. In the end, it is found that flood hazard mitigation policy within the US, while full of good intentions, has unintentionally produced many hurdles. These hurdles are detailed and recommendations designed to overcome them are suggested.
