What is house flood plain?

In some jurisdictions a flood plan is needed to be given to the building authority to show the new home has flood mitigation drains or swales, is built high enough not to be flooded, or has a flood evacuation plan. It can also mean a council authority plan that shows where flooding has occurred in a district and where you could safely build a home.
