FEMA Tweaks Flood Hazards Across Several Areas

## Summary

FEMA is updating flood risk maps for certain communities based on new science, which could change flood zones and insurance rules. If you live or own property in these areas, your flood insurance needs or costs might change soon. You’ve got 90 days after local notices to ask for a review before the updates become final.

## Abstract

This notice lists communities where the addition or modification of Base Flood Elevations (BFEs), base flood depths, Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA) boundaries or zone designations, or the regulatory floodway (hereinafter referred to as flood hazard determinations), as shown on the Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs), and where applicable, in the supporting Flood Insurance Study (FIS) reports, prepared by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) for each community, is appropriate because of new scientific or technical data. The FIRM, and where applicable, portions of the FIS report, have been revised to reflect these flood hazard determinations through issuance of a Letter of Map Revision (LOMR), in accordance with Federal Regulations. The current effective community number is shown in the table below and must be used for all new policies and renewals.
