PROBLEM: SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

This Act may be cited as the ''Flood Insurance Community Outreach
Grant Program Act of 2006''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS AND PURPOSE.

(a) Findings.--The Congress finds the following:
(1) Following the human suffering and devastation caused by
Hurricanes Rita and Katrina, the Federal Government and State
and local governments have responded to public concerns about
flood safety by increasing resources to improve flood
protection measures in communities throughout the United
States.
(2) In the year since these disasters, the Federal
Government has directed $7,000,000,000 in emergency
supplemental spending to restoring and strengthening hurricane
protection in Louisiana and the Gulf Coast as well as
$1,900,000,000 from the annual budget of the U.S. Army
Corps of Engineers for flood control and hurricane protection
measures across the Nation.
(3) While improving this infrastructure is essential to a
comprehensive approach to flood protection, communities must be
encouraged to better assess their flood risk and better inform
the public about the importance of maintaining flood insurance
protection.
(4) To reduce the flood risk to communities in the United
States, the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) must be
solvent and more effective.
(5) To achieve these goals, the Federal Emergency
Management Agency (FEMA), which administers the NFIP, should
work with communities to communicate directly with the people
who live and work in the Nation's floodplains on issues
concerning flood risk and flood protection.
(6) More than 20,000 communities currently participate in
the NFIP and nearly all of these communities have properties
that are located in special flood hazard areas--areas in which
Federal law requires that property owners purchase flood
insurance coverage before they can obtain a mortgage loan from
a federally regulated lender.
(7) Despite this mandatory purchase requirement, a FEMA-
commissioned study by the RAND Corporation found that 20 to 25
percent of property owners in special flood hazard areas who
have a mortgage from a federally regulated lender and are
required to purchase flood insurance do not carry a policy.
(8) In the next few years, the number of communities that
participate in the NFIP will increase, as FEMA's flood map
modernization program reassesses the flood risk to communities
throughout the Nation.
(9) As the map modernization program brings new communities
under the flood insurance mandatory purchase requirement, FEMA
should partner with these communities to educate property
owners, business owners, and property renters about the nature
of the flood risk in their area and the importance of
maintaining flood insurance protection.
(10) In addition to improving public awareness of flood
risk and flood insurance, many communities that undertake
outreach activities can qualify for reduced flood insurance
premiums under the NFIP's community rating system program.
(11) Flood risk is not limited to properties that are
located in special flood hazard areas, and many properties that
are no longer subject to the mandatory purchase requirement
remain at risk of flooding, especially in areas that are
protected by levees.
(12) FEMA estimates that between 20 and 25 percent of all
claims paid by the NFIP are for claims on properties located
outside of these special flood hazard areas.
(13) Thus, a property's release from the Federal flood
insurance purchase requirement does not mean that the property
is no longer subject to risk of flooding.
(14) In communities where properties have been released
from this Federal requirement, outreach activities can help to
educate the public about the importance of voluntarily
maintaining flood insurance coverage, including the potential
availability of low-cost preferred risk policies.
(15) Many property owners who own a home or building that
is located in an area that is subject to moderate-to-low risk
of flooding are unaware that they may qualify for the low-cost,
preferred risk flood insurance--a product of the NFIP.
(16) By partnering with local flood control authorities,
FEMA can better promote flood safety and flood insurance and,
in communities with properties that are no longer subject to
the mandatory purchase requirement, retain a higher number of
NFIP policies.
(17) Reducing the number of uninsured property owners in
communities that are subject to flood risk will reduce the
fiscal effects of a flood disaster to both property owners and
the Federal Government.
(b) Purpose.--It is the purpose of this Act to establish a flood
insurance outreach and education grants program that provides resources
to communities for educating property owners and renters on flood
insurance options while strengthening the national flood insurance
program.

properties;
''(3) educate such owners and renters regarding the flood
risk and reduction of this risk in their community, including
the continued flood risks to areas that are no longer subject
to the flood insurance mandatory purchase requirement;

''(B) the history of flood losses in the relevant
area that have occurred to properties, both inside and
outside the special flood hazards zones, which are not
covered by flood insurance coverage;

properties located in the relevant area that are not
covered by flood insurance;
''(D) demonstrated success of the local
governmental agency in generating voluntary purchase of

the most immediate need for such activities.
''(g) Reporting.--Each local government agency that receives a
grant under this section, and each entity that receives amounts
pursuant to subsection (f), shall submit a report to the Director, not
later than 12 months after such amounts are first received, which shall
include such information as the Director considers appropriate to
describe the activities conducted using such amounts and the effect of
such activities on the retention or acquisition of flood insurance
coverage.
''(h) Authorization of Appropriations.--There is authorized to be
appropriated for grants under this section $50,000,000 for each of
fiscal years 2007 through 2011.''.

SOLUTION:
