Abstract: The Community Rating System (CRS) was established to (1) reduce flood losses; (2) facilitate accurate insurance rating, and; (3) promote the awareness of flood insurance. The CRS encourages these goals by providing flood insurance premium discounts to policy holders in those communities that implement activities and programs which directly support the goals stated above.
