What does a Letter of Map Revision (LOMR) account for?

Natural disasters altering the landscape
Manmade changes like adding fill or altering the floodplain
Updates to the insurance rates in the floodplain
Annual reassessment of property values

The correct answer is: Manmade changes like adding fill or altering the floodplain

A LOMR accounts for manmade changes like adding fill or altering the floodplain, not for natural disasters altering the landscape, updates to insurance rates in the floodplain, or annual reassessment of property values. This document is used to revise floodplain boundaries, effectively changing the flood risk for certain areas due to manmade changes made to the land. It does not account for natural disasters because those are considered unpredictable events and cannot be controlled by human activity. It also does not affect insurance rates or property values as those are determined by other factors.
