Gregory letter: Floodplain
Regarding “FEMA flood map plans ...” (page one, Dec. 1): The floodplain — any floodplain — is not FEMA’s. It is Nature’s floodplain and humans have been infringing on these places for centuries. The front-page “news” story attempts to blame the Federal Emergency Management Agency for human mistakes. No, the floodplain is Nature’s, not FEMA’s.
