Created by Congress in 1968, the NFIP provides flood insurance protection to property owners, in return for local government commitment to sound floodplain management. Since 1994, the NFIP has included a Flood Mitigation Assistance (FMA) program to provide local communities with support for flood mitigation. This book offers quantitative evidence of the net social benefit of the NFIP for the years 1996-2010, including an independent assessment of the consumer benefit.℗ℓ Second, it provides distributionally weighted analysis to show the socioeconomic effects of payments and claims. Finally, this Brief includes an analysis of the change in government revenue attributable to the NFIP and FMA programs. The models used in each component of the analysis are usable by others for extending and revising the analysis. Providing a comprehensive analysis of this increasingly important federal policy, this Brief will be of use to students of environmental economics and public policy as well as those interested in risk management in the era of climate change. ℗ℓ℗ℓ. 000762885 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (viewed May 12, 2016) 000762885 61020 $$aNational Flood Insurance Program (U.S.) 000762885 650_0 $$aFlood insurance$$xLaw and legislation$$zUnited States. 000762885 830_0 $$aSpringerBriefs in political science. 000762885 852__ $$bebk 000762885 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-29063-8$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000762885 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:762885$$pGLOBAL_SET 000762885 980__ $$aEBOOK 000762885 980__ $$aBIB 000762885 982__ $$aEbook 000762885 983__ $$aOnline 000762885 994__ $$a92$$bISE
