FEMA's Flood Zone Decisions and Risks at Camp Mystic
The article reports that FEMA repeatedly granted appeals to remove Camp Mystic's buildings from its 100-year flood map, potentially reducing oversight and flood insurance requirements, despite the camp's location in a high-risk floodplain. The camp expanded after exemptions were granted, and the recent severe floodwaters caused significant damage and loss of life, raising concerns about the adequacy of flood risk assessments and regulations.
