<p xmlns:xhtml="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">  Experts are predicting that Harvey &#8211; the most powerful storm to  hit the US since 2004 &#8211; <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2017-08-27/harvey-s-cost-reaches-catastrophe-as-modelers-see-many-uninsured">  will cost Texas</a> between $30 billion and $100 billion in  damage.</p>
<p xmlns:xhtml="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">  And in the coming days, Congress will be called upon to send  billions of federal dollars to help with the state&#8217;s recovery and  rebuilding efforts.</p>
<p xmlns:xhtml="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">  But because of Trump&#8217;s rollback of President Barack Obama&#8217;s  Federal Flood Risk Management Standard, experts across the  political spectrum say much of the federal money sent to Texas is  likely to be wasted on construction that will insufficiently  protect against the next storm.</p>
<p xmlns:xhtml="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">  &#8220;We will rebuild things that should not be rebuilt and &#8230; in  ways that are less safe and secure than they should be,&#8221; Eli  Lehrer, president of the free-market think tank R Street  Institute in Washington, told Business Insider.</p>
<p xmlns:xhtml="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">  Shana Udvardy, a climate-preparedness specialist at the Union of  Concerned Scientists, said it would be a &#8220;grave mistake&#8221; to  rebuild in Texas without taking into consideration the increasing  occurrence and severity of major storms. She added that the  federal government would lag some 600 towns and cities that have  already implemented requirements to build between 1 and 3 feet  above the 100-year flood level.</p>
<p xmlns:xhtml="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">  Lehrer called Trump&#8217;s decision to revoke the standards &#8220;the  biggest step backwards that has ever been taken in flood  management policy&#8221; and said the move would waste taxpayer money,  harm the environment, and cost lives.</p>
<p xmlns:xhtml="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">  He and others argue that Trump&#8217;s decision was a politically  motivated attempt to undo Obama&#8217;s climate-change legacy.</p>
<p xmlns:xhtml="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">  &#8220;If the Obama administration had simply described this as a  sensible taxpayer protecting land-use measure, the regulations  would still be in effect,&#8221; Lehrer said.</p>
<p xmlns:xhtml="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">  And some Republican lawmakers have denounced the move.</p>
<p xmlns:xhtml="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">  &#8220;This executive order is not fiscally conservative,&#8221; Rep. Carlos  Curbelo, a Florida Republican, <a href="https://curbelo.house.gov/news/documentsingle.aspx?DocumentID=1655">  said in a statement</a>. &#8220;It&#8217;s irresponsible, and it will lead to  taxpayer dollars being wasted on projects that may not be built  to endure the flooding we are already seeing and know is only  going to get worse.&#8221;</p>
<p xmlns:xhtml="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">  The Obama administration estimated the regulations would increase  building costs by 0.25% to 1.25% but save taxpayers significant  money in the future. <a href="http://www.gao.gov/new.items/d07403.pdf">Studies have found</a>  that for every $1 spent on disaster mitigation, the government  will save $4 on post-disaster aid.</p>
<p xmlns:xhtml="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">  Joel Scata, an attorney with the Natural Resources Defense  Council, told Business Insider that the regulations were spurred  partly by the enormous costs of the disaster-relief efforts  following Hurricane Katrina in 2005 and Hurricane Sandy in 2012.</p>
<p xmlns:xhtml="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">  &#8220;This not only would have protected people and property from  future flood events, but also was really meant to reduce the  amount of disaster aid we spend on recovery,&#8221; he said.</p>
<p xmlns:xhtml="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">  And while Trump justified the rollback as part of an attempt to  streamline and speed up construction projects, Lehrer said the  regulations&#8217; effect on the construction process would have been  largely &#8220;subtle and inexpensive&#8221; and that an insignificant number  of projects would have been abandoned because of increased costs.</p>
<p xmlns:xhtml="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">  Scata also said the rollback would most likely have a  disproportionate effect on poor and vulnerable people and  communities.</p>
<p xmlns:xhtml="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">  For example, because the Department of Housing and Urban  Development will not be obliged to build more-resilient  structures, those who live in public housing are likely to suffer  the consequences. On top of that, about 5%, or 11,000, of the  country&#8217;s public-housing buildings are in the floodplain,  according to a <a href="https://www.hudoig.gov/sites/default/files/documents/2015-OE-0007S.pdf">  2015 report</a> from the department&#8217;s inspector general.</p>
