What is the primary goal of the Flood Mitigation Assistance Program (FMA)?

To provide immediate flood relief to victims
To fund actions that reduce the long-term risk of flood damage
To support the construction of new flood barriers
To compensate for flood damages

The correct answer is: To fund actions that reduce the long-term risk of flood damage

The goal of the Flood Mitigation Assistance Program (FMA) is to fund actions that reduce the long-term risk of flood damage. This means that the program aims to prevent or minimize future flood damage rather than providing immediate relief to victims after a flood has already occurred. Options A, C, and D may be potential actions taken after a flood, but they do not align with the primary goal of the FMA program to prevent and minimize future flood damage.
