      (1)   Designed (or modified) and adequately anchored to prevent floatation, collapse or lateral movement of the structure resulting from hydrodynamic and hydrostatic loads, including the effects of buoyancy;
      (2)   Constructed with materials and utility equipment resistant to flood damage;
      (3)   Constructed by methods and practices that minimize flood damage; and
      (4)   Constructed with electrical, heating, ventilation, plumbing and air conditioning equipment and other service facilities that are designed and/or located so as to prevent water from entering or accumulating within the components during conditions of flooding.
