<u>Answer:</u>

<em>Several flood mitigation techniques can be used by federal governments. </em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

<em>Diversion of flood water and its storage is a method that can be used for flood mitigation.</em> Floodwaters can be diverted to canals, reservoirs, floodplains etc.

Thus water can be kept out of inhabited areas. Federal governments can enact legislation to establish floodwater and storage.  <em>Restoration of streams and floodplains is another method that can be used to mitigate floods. </em>

These methods can prevent bank erosion and reduce the severity of floods. Legislation's regarding the restoration can be passed by federal states.

<em>Low impact development and green infrastructure store water and thus helps preventing floods. This is another method to mitigate floods.  </em>
