National Flood Insurance Program:
The National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) is administered by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). Community participation in the program is voluntary. A community is an incorportated city, town, or part of a county that has a floodplain management ordinance and enforces the ordinance. When a community participates in the NFIP, flood insurance is made available from the NFIP. In addition, if the President declares a disaster as a result of flooding, federal financial assistance is made available for the permanent repair or reconstruction of insurable buildings. For proof that Concord participates in the National Flood Insurance Program, please see the National Flood Insurance Program Community Status Book.
