The National Disaster Recovery Framework
“a scalable, flexible, and adaptable framework coordinating structures to align key roles and responsibilities, linking local, state, tribal and federal governments, the private sector, and voluntary, faith-based and community organizations that play vital roles in recovery”
** Post-Katrina Emergency Management Reform Act of 2006** Presidential Policy Directive (PDD-8)
Prepare + Prevent + Respond + Recover + Mitigate
Principles of the Framework• Individual & Family Empowerment• Leadership & Local Primacy• Preparation for Recovery• Partnerships and Inclusiveness• Communications• Unity of Effort• Timeliness & Flexibility• Resilience & Sustainability (NIPP Risk Management

and collaboration among all stake holders• Guidance for pre- and post disaster recovery planning• An overall process by which, together as a nation, we can
capitalize on opportunities to rebuild stronger, smarter, and safer communities

PROJECT ORGANIZATION
Prepare + Prevent + Respond + Recover + Mitigate
• Flooding is the most frequent, destructive, expensive disaster type in the US;
– This is the primary reason that flood is an excluded peril in most property casualty policies.
• An unintended consequence of the NFIP is the subsidy of risk behavior, using public funds.
• Between 1978 and 2013, 108 significant claims events for the resulted in 1,030,309 claims filed paying policy holders $42,289,635,243.53 (average $41,045.58).
Why Reform the NFIP?
Prepare + Prevent + Respond + Recover + Mitigate
BW-12 extends the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) for five years and requires significant reform in the following NFIP major components:
– Flood insurance;– Flood hazard mapping;– Grants; and– Floodplain management.
What does BW-12 do?
Prepare + Prevent + Respond + Recover + Mitigate
• Removes subsidized rates for certain classes of structures– Jan, 2013 – Non-Primary Residences– Oct, 2013 – Business Properties, 1-4 Residences SRL Properties, Properties
where claims have exceeded fair market value, Properties with no/lapsed insurance, and Properties purchased after BW-12
– Late 2014 – actuarial rate phase in for all other (at 20% per year increase)• Allows for rate increases on subsidized of 25% annually until actuarial
rates are achieved;• Increases the limit for annual rate increases within a given risk
classification from 10% to 20%;• Allows for installment payment• Allows for private insurance• Allows for State sponsored mediation and requires NFIP participation

Prepare + Prevent + Respond + Recover + Mitigate
• Establishes a Technical Mapping Advisory Council to develop uniform standards and improve
• FEMA is required to incorporate these recommendations into review and updates of maps.
• Membership is pulled from a wide range of partners.
• Maps show the level of protection provided by flood control structures; and
• New maps must use the best available date for topography and elevations.
MAPPING
Prepare + Prevent + Respond + Recover + Mitigate
• Establishes a Flood Protection Structure Accreditation Task Force, in cooperation with the USACE and FEMA, charged with better alignment of information between the agencies;
• The Task Force must develop a process that allows data collected for either purpose to be used interchangeably, and establishes a timeline for implementation/completion;
• Allows for premiums to reflect premiums in fully protected areas in communities that are deemed to have made adequate progress in the reconstruction or improvement of a flood protection system.
LEVEES
Prepare + Prevent + Respond + Recover + Mitigate
• Consolidates the RFC, SRL, and FMA programs into a single program (eliminated the RFC and SRL programs);
• Allows that:– A flood mitigation plan may be part of a community’s hazard
mitigation plan;– Elevation, relocation, or floodproofing of utilities is an allowed
mitigation activity; and– Adds demolition/rebuilding as an allowed mitigation activity;
• Limits the use of federal grants funds for state mitigation plans to $50,000 and $25,000 for local plans;
• Restructures the federal share requirements to:– 100% for SRL properties;– 90% for RL properties; and– 75% for all other properties.
Mitigation Programs
Prepare + Prevent + Respond + Recover + Mitigate
• All communities would be wise to at least consider the adequacy of their existing flood damage prevention ordinance, to ensure that it encourages building and placement practices that provide property owners the opportunity for the lowest possible flood insurance premiums.
• Some communities will find they should consider completely overhauling their existing ordinances, and possibly expanding their regulatory areas (ie, into the .2% floodplain).
Floodplain Management Practices and Programs
Prepare + Prevent + Respond + Recover + Mitigate
Mitigating the BW-12 ReformsUSING CARROTS AND STICKS TO MAKE IT LESS PAINFUL FOR YOUR COMMUNITY
Prepare + Prevent + Respond + Recover + Mitigate
• The CRS is a community’s single biggest defense against the rate increases in BW-12.
• Begun in 1990, the CRS is a voluntary program, available to members of the NFIP.
• The CRS provides flood insurance premium reductions to policy holders, based on the community’s floodplain management activities that exceed the minimum requirements, as established by the NFIP.
The NFIP’s Community Rating System
Prepare + Prevent + Respond + Recover + Mitigate
• Communities must apply for membership in the program.
• There are 18 public information and floodplain management activities that result in CRS credit for communities; communities may do some or all of these activities.
• Activities include: – maintaining elevation certificates for new construction in the SFHA– repetitive loss communities must also prepare, adopt, implement, and update a comprehensive flood
hazard mitigation plan– Providing FIRM information to people who inquire, and publicizing this service;– Outreach projects;– Hazard disclosure;– Technical assistance to property owners;– Open space preservation;– Higher regulatory standards (ie, requiring freeboard);– Storm water management; and– Acquisition/relocation of flood-prone buildings.
• Communities seeking admittance must designate a CRS Coordinator, who can speak for the community in the program.
Prepare + Prevent + Respond + Recover + Mitigate
• Floodplain management activities earn point in the CRS which reduce premium in CRS area.
• CRS class scale runs form 10 to 1:– Class 9 (500-999 points) = 5% discount– Class 7 (1,500-1,999 points = 15% discount in SFHA, and
5% for all others– Class 5 (2,500-2,999 points) = 25% discount in SFHA, and
10% for all others– Class 1 (4,500+ points) = 45% discount in SFHA, and 10%
for all others
