When Superstorm Sandy made landfall in October of 2012, the historic pure catastrophe killed greater than 100 folks and brought on catastrophic injury alongside the Jap seaboard. “Enterprise of Catastrophe” places two key components of the catastrophe restoration system below scrutiny: the particular housing support Congress provides to native governments after main disasters, and the Nationwide Flood Insurance coverage Program that’s run by the Federal Emergency Administration Administration. Main insurance coverage corporations declined to be interviewed, however FRONTLINE and NPR spent months working to trace their revenue numbers down. With storms anticipated to develop in frequency and depth, this joint investigation raises troubling questions on catastrophe aid in America.
