One of the <br />activities is to write a comprehensive floodplain management plan, In <br />lieu of following the Flood Risk Mitigation Plan requirements outlined <br />in this section, a community may write a CRS floodplain management <br />plan. Plans written through the CRS program and approved by FEMA <br />are automatically eligible for submission through the FMA program. <br />Appendix 5 contains a FEMA approved CRS floodplain management <br />plan.
