Congressman Blaine Luetkemeyer reintroduced four bills aimed at providing what he sees as commonsense reforms to the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). Those reforms could impact landowners at Lake of the Ozarks and along the Osage River.
“With thousands of miles of shoreline along the Lake of the Ozarks, Mississippi River, Missouri River, and Osage River, Missouri’s Third District has seen more than our fair share of flooding over the years. We are at Mother Nature’s mercy with the amount of rain and snow we receive, but making sure our area is well-equipped with the necessary resources to handle flooding is always at the top of my priority list,” said Luetkemeyer in a press release. “The NFIP has been mismanaged for decades, and despite bipartisan calls for comprehensive reform, worthwhile action has yet to be taken in Congress.”
