N.Y. Environmental Conservation Law § 36-0109: Sanctions

§ 36-0109. Sanctions.

Any local government with land use jurisdiction that fails to qualify

for participation in the national flood insurance program, or that has

had its participation terminated by the federal emergency management

agency, faces sanctions under federal law including, in areas of special

flood hazard, ineligibility for flood disaster aid, ineligibility for

federally provided loans or federally guaranteed financing, including

residential and other mortgages granted by any banking institution that

is a member of the federal deposit insurance corporation or other

federal instrumentality. The state of New York will cooperate with the

federal government in the enforcement of these sanctions.
