What is Eminent Domain as defined by FEMA 480?

  1. The development of property for public use

  2. The acquisition of property without owner's consent for public use

  3. A method of flood control

  4. A flood insurance policy

The correct answer is: The acquisition of property without owner's consent for public use

Eminent domain refers to the power of the government to acquire private property for public use, but it does not necessarily involve development. Option A is incorrect because it only covers one aspect of eminent domain. Option C is incorrect because it refers to a specific type of flood control, rather than the broader concept of eminent domain. Option D is incorrect because it is referring to a type of insurance policy, rather than the process of acquiring property. Therefore, only option B accurately defines eminent domain as it relates to FEMA 480.
