Why is human development in and around flood plains potentially problematic? Mark ALL that apply.

a
It could negatively impact local wildlife populations that depend on access to those areas for habitat, food and water resources
b
It could cause the land in the area to begin sinking due to all the excess weight from human development.
c
It can increase the amount of pollution entering the waterways as more and more people have access to these regions
d
It can increase the damage caused during flooding events because water is no longer able to move through the flood plain and in to the ground water
