What was specifically targeted for improvement in the 1994 National Flood Insurance Reform Act regarding disasters?

  1. Recovery time from disasters

  2. Processes for giving / receiving assistance

  3. Funding allocations

  4. Forecast and warning systems

The correct answer is: Processes for giving / receiving assistance

The 1994 National Flood Insurance Reform Act was specifically targeted at improving processes for giving and receiving assistance in the wake of disasters. This involved streamlining and improving the overall efficiency of disaster response efforts, including implementing a more coordinated approach and providing more timely assistance to affected individuals and communities. While the other options may also have been areas of focus for the act, they were not the primary target for improvement. Recovery time from disasters, funding allocations, and forecast and warning systems may have been indirectly impacted by the act, but they were not the main focus.
