Trump struck down Obama’s flood risk regulations two weeks before Harvey

Trump’s decision to roll back the Federal Flood Risk Management Standard was praised by business groups including the National Association of Home Builders, who felt flood regulations had pushed up the cost of housing, but faced criticism from environmental groups, Reuters reported.
Former director of public affairs at the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Rafael Lemaitre told the news service at the time that Trump was undoing "the most significant action taken in a generation" to protect infrastructure from climate change.
"Eliminating this requirement is self-defeating; we can either build smarter now, or put taxpayers on the hook to pay exponentially more when it floods. And it will," he added.

And it is.
