Drench the Certified Floodplain Manager (CFM) Test 2025 – Make Waves and Ace It!

The Unified National Program focused on reducing the impact of floods, which means it aimed to decrease the negative consequences of flooding. Among the strategies to achieve this goal, modifying susceptibility to flooding is the only option that is directly related to reducing the impact of floods. The other options, such as increasing flood insurance prices, relocating populations, and building higher levees, may indirectly address the issue but are not the main strategies of the program. For example, increasing flood insurance prices may incentivize individuals to take preventive measures, but the main focus of the program was not on insurance. Similarly, relocating populations and building higher levees may reduce the physical impact of floods, but they do not address the root cause of the issue, which is the susceptibility to flooding. Thus, C is the correct answer as it aligns with the main strategies of the Unified National Program.
