Title: Updates to Floodplain Management and Protection of Wetlands Regulations to Implement Executive Order 13690 and the Federal Flood Risk Management Standard  
Abstract:

The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) plans to withdraw a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) that published on August 22, 2016. The NPRM proposed changes to FEMA’s "Floodplain Management and Protection of Wetlands” regulations to implement Executive Order 13690, which established the Federal Flood Risk Management Standard (FFRMS). FEMA also plans to withdraw a proposed supplementary policy (FEMA Policy: 078-3), which clarified how FEMA would apply the FFRMS. On August 15, 2017, the President issued Executive Order 13807, which revoked Executive Order 13690. Accordingly, FEMA plans to withdraw the NPRM and proposed supplementary policy.
