''SEC. 1312A. PAYMENT OF MULTIPERIL CLAIMS.

''(a) Purposes.--The purposes of this section are--
''(1) to allow an insured individual or small business to
commence repairs or replacement, or both, of insured property
and to recommence business operations as soon as possible after
a natural disaster; and
''(2) to remove the burden of determining flood and wind
loss allocation for the purpose of insurance claims from the
insured and to place such burden on the entities that are
responsible for the payment of such claims.
''(b) Payment of Multiperil Claims.--
''(1) In general.--In the event of an occurrence of loss
resulting from physical damage to or loss of real property or
personal property related thereto located in the United States
arising from the combined perils of flood and wind, the
Administrator and any insurer (including a State-run windpool)
that insures the wind peril shall enter into good faith
negotiations regarding--
''(A) the general method or methods by which proven
claims for such multiperil losses shall be adjusted and
paid; and
''(B) the allocation of such payments between the
insurer, the Administrator, and the insured.
''(2) Limitation.--
''(A) In general.--In the event that the
Administrator and an insurer (including a State-run
windpool) that insures the wind peril cannot agree as
to the specific distribution of perils that resulted in
a loss described under paragraph (1), the Administrator
shall pay 50 percent of the disputed claim until the
claim can be settled.
''(B) Fair share.--The terms of any agreement or
negotiations entered into pursuant to paragraph (1)
shall require that, in order to fully compensate the
insured for his, her, or its loss as soon as
practicable after the occurrence of such loss, an
insurer (including a State-run windpool) that insures
the wind peril pay 50 percent of any disputed claim
until the claim can be settled.
''(C) No overcompensation.--The Administrator and
an insurer (including a State-run windpool) that
insures the wind peril shall work collaboratively to
ensure that an insured policyholder does not receive
payments under this section in excess of the amount of
the insured's actual loss.
''(D) Rule of construction.--Nothing in this
section shall be construed to negate, set aside, or
void any policy limit, including any loss limitation,
set forth in a standard flood insurance policy.
''(c) Failure To Reach Agreement on Loss Allocation.--The terms of
any agreement or negotiations entered into pursuant to subsection
(b)(1) shall require that if an insurer (including a State-run
windpool) that insures the wind peril and the Administrator fail to
reach an agreement regarding multiperil losses pursuant to subsection
(b), including as to the cause or allocation of a multiperil loss, then
each such entity shall agree to have any dispute relating to multiperil
losses resolved by the arbitration panel established under subsection
(d).
''(d) Arbitration Panel.--

the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968 (42 U.S.C. 4104), and
notwithstanding any other provision of law, not later than 90
days after the date of enactment of this Act, the Administrator

answer:
Coordination of Wind and Flood Perils Act of 2010 - Amends the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968 to direct the Administrator of Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and any insurer (including a state-run windpool), in the event of loss resulting from physical damage to real property or personal property arising from the combined perils of flood and wind, to enter into good faith negotiations regarding: (1) payment and adjustment of proven claims for multiperil losses; and (2) the allocation of such payments among the insurer, the Administrator, and the insured.

question:
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

This Act may be cited as the ''Missing and Exploited Children Task
Force Act of 1993''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

The Congress finds that--
(1) the victimization of children in our Nation has reached
epidemic proportions; recent Department of Justice figures show
that--
(A) 4,600 children were abducted by non-family
members;
(B) two-thirds of the abductions of children by
non-family members involve sexual assault;
(C) more than 354,000 children were abducted by
family members; and
(D) 451,000 children ran away;
(2) while some local law enforcement officials have been
successful in the investigation and resolution of such crimes,
most local agencies lack the personnel and resources necessary
to give this problem the full attention it requires;
(3) a majority of the Nation's 17,000 police departments
have 10 or fewer officers; and
(4) locating missing children requires a coordinated law
enforcement effort; supplementing local law enforcement
agencies with a team of assigned active Federal agents will
allow Federal agents to pool their resources and expertise in
order to assist local agents in the investigation of the
Nation's most difficult cases involving missing children.

SEC. 3. PURPOSE.

The purpose of this Act is to establish a task force comprised of
law enforcement officers from pertinent Federal agencies to work with
the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (referred to as
the ''Center'') and coordinate the provision of Federal law enforcement
resources to assist State and local authorities in investigating the
most difficult cases of missing and exploited children.
