A LOMR is an official amendment to the currently-effective FEMA map. Issued by FEMA, the LOMR changes flood zones, delinations, and elevations. The FEMA map revision may mean that your property is no longer shown in a special flood hazard area (SFHA). However, if you receive a LOMR, your risk of flooding has not been eliminated, only reduced. The good news is that you would likely be eligible to pay much less for your flood insurance coverage. Contact your insurance agent for additional information.
