A CLOMA is a statement from FEMA that indicates what?

  1. Immediate change to the flood insurance rate

  2. That a project can potentially be approved for a map amendment later

  3. Full compliance with NFIP regulations

  4. Eligibility for federal disaster assistance

The correct answer is: That a project can potentially be approved for a map amendment later

A CLOMA is a Conditional Letter of Map Amendment, which means that the project can potentially be approved for a map amendment in the future. This option is the best answer because it accurately describes what a CLOMA is, while the other options are incorrect. Option A is incorrect because a CLOMA does not immediately change the flood insurance rate, it just indicates that a change may be possible in the future. Option C is incorrect because a CLOMA does not guarantee full compliance with NFIP regulations. Option D is incorrect because a CLOMA does not automatically make someone eligible for federal disaster assistance. It simply indicates that the project may be eligible for a map amendment in the future.
