Bill overview
The Commonsense Flood Prevention Act directs the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) to review the operating licenses for two hydroelectric dams – the Toledo Bend Project and the Medina Dam Project. These dams are located in areas that have experienced significant flooding and are considered potential contributors to flood risks. The goal of this review is to assess whether the current licenses adequately address flood prevention and mitigation measures. This legislation aims to ensure these projects are operating in a way that minimizes flood risks to surrounding communities.
