Regulatory Flexibility Act. The
Administrator has determined that this

prohibits flood insurance coverage
unless an appropriate public body
adopts adequate floodplain management
measures with effective enforcement
measures. The communities listed no

requirements, and after the effective
date, flood insurance will no longer be
available in the communities unless
remedial action takes place.
