What significant change did Procedure Memorandum 34 bring about?

  1. Introduction of new flood insurance rates

  2. Levees no longer being grandfathered on FEMA maps

  3. Mandatory evacuation plans for flood-prone areas

  4. Increased federal funding for flood prevention

The correct answer is: Levees no longer being grandfathered on FEMA maps

Procedure Memorandum 34 brought about significant changes to the way levees were handled on FEMA maps. Prior to PM 34, levees were grandfathered and did not have to be accurately portrayed on flood maps.

A, Introduction of new flood insurance rates, is incorrect because while this may have been a result of PM 34, it was not the significant change brought about by it. C, Mandatory evacuation plans for flood-prone areas, is incorrect because this may have been a result of PM 34, but it was not the significant change brought about by it.
