<div style='text-align:Left;'><div><div><p><span>FEMA flood insurance rate map index for pdf maps that are the currently adopted maps for Clallam County. Effective 4-23-2025. </span></p><p><span>Data was downloaded from https://msc.fema.gov/portal/home. Polygons were copied from S_FIRM_Pan into GeoData.DATAOWNER.FIRM_index. Firm Panels were uploaded to the Portal and links were populated to point from the corresponding record to the pdf. </span></p><p><span>The Q3 Flood Data are derived from the Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMS) published by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). The file is georeferenced to earth"s surface using geographic projection and decimal degree coordinate system. The specifications for the horizontal control of Q3 Flood Data files are consistent with those required for mapping at a scale of 1:24000.</span></p><p><span>The FIRM is the basis for floodplain management, mitigation, and insurance activities for the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP).</span></p><p><span>Insurance applications include enforcement of the mandatory purchase requirement of the Flood Disaster Protection Act which "... requires the purchase of flood insurance by property owners who are being assisted by Federal programs or by Federally supervised, regulated or insured agencies or institutions in the acquisition or improvement of land facilities located or to be located in identified areas having special flood hazards" (Section 2 (b) (4) of the 1973 Flood Disaster Protection Act). In addition to the identification of Special Flood Hazard Areas, the risk zones shown on the FIRMs are the basis for the establishment of premium rates for flood coverage offered through the NFIP.</span></p><p><span>Q3 Flood Data files are intended to convey certain key features from the existing hard copy FIRM to provide users with automated flood risk data.</span></p><p><span>Edge-matching errors, overlaps and deficiencies in coverage, and similar problems are not corrected during digitizing or post-processing. These data may be used to locate Special Flood Hazard Areas (SFHAs).</span></p><p><span>More detailed information may be obtained from the paper FIRM.</span></p></div></div></div> |
