The Federal Emergency Management Agency is responsible for administering the National Flood Insurance Program and sponsoring other activities intended to reduce losses attributable to flooding. This manual was prepared to encourage appropriate design, construction, and land-use and water management in flood-prone areas. For designers to effectively contribute to flood damage reduction, they need specific information on the causes of flood damage and on ways to decrease losses through the design process. This manual was prepared to provide that information.
