``(t) Projects in Flood-prone Areas.--For projects and
actions that, in whole or in part, encroach within the limits
of a flood-prone area, the Secretary shall ensure that such
projects and actions are--
``(1) designed and constructed in a way that takes into
account, and mitigates where appropriate, flood risk by using
hydrologic, hydraulic, and hydrodynamic data, methods, and
analysis that integrate current and projected changes in
flooding based on scientific forecasts over the anticipated
service life of the asset and future forecasted land use
changes; and
``(2) designed using analysis that considers the capital
costs, risks, and other economic, engineering, social and
environmental concerns of constructing a project in a flood-
prone area.''.
