Thank you for holding this hearing with a two-fold purpose--to examine the Federal Emergency Management Agency's (FEMA) ongoing work to update the accuracy of flood maps and to provide the necessary funding for this work that is expected to be completed by 2017.
Isakson appreciates the hearing's focus on FEMA's flood map updates and funding.
