Comment:
The agent has no binding authority with the Federal Flood Program. In the true definition of "agent" the retail agent is not an agent of the Federal Flood Program. With a real insurance company the agent may be an agent of the company, so acts of the agent are the same as acts of the company.
In the case of Fed Flood, the agent has no more authority to effect coverage than the mail carrier who delivers the envelope containing payment.
