What is the main subject of 44 CFR §60.3?

  1. Governs decisions for Letters of Map Revisions

  2. NFIP General Provisions

  3. Criteria for Land Management and Use

  4. Floodplain Management Criteria for Flood-prone Areas

The correct answer is: Floodplain Management Criteria for Flood-prone Areas

44 CFR §60.3 outlines the Floodplain Management Criteria for Flood-prone Areas. This means that this section specifically discusses guidelines and regulations for managing and mitigating flood risks in areas that are prone to flooding. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because they do not focus on the specific guidelines for flood-prone areas, which is the main subject of this section. Choice A discusses decisions for Letters of Map Revisions, which is a specific process within floodplain management. Choice B refers to the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) in general, but not a specific subject or criteria. Choice C mentions land management and use criteria, which is related to floodplain management, but not the main subject of this section.
