Section 100239 of the Biggert-Waters
Flood Insurance Reform Act of 2012 requires each federal banking
agency (including the FDIC), and the Farm Credit Administration, to
adopt implementing regulations to direct regulated lending
institutions to accept “private flood insurance,” as defined by the
Biggert-Waters Act. A lending institution would be required to
implement policies and procedures to comply with the Biggert-Waters
Act provision and verify in writing that a private insurance policy
satisfies the criteria included in the definition or document
findings that separate required criteria have been met when
accepting a private flood insurance policy in satisfaction of the
mandatory flood insurance purchase requirement of the Flood
Disaster Protection Act. The institution must also maintain records
to permit examination staff to ascertain how the institution has
met the requirements of the regulation.
