What does FIRM represent?

  1. Federal Insurance Rate Measure

  2. Flood Insurance Rate Map

  3. Flood Incident Reporting Medium

  4. Federal Internal Risk Management

The correct answer is: Flood Insurance Rate Map

FIRM stands for Flood Insurance Rate Map, as set by the National Flood Insurance Program. The Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) is an official map used to determine flood insurance requirements and premiums in designated flood zones. Option A is incorrect because there is no such thing as "Federal Insurance Rate Measure" and option C is incorrect because there is no such thing as "Flood Incident Reporting Medium." Option D is incorrect because it does not accurately describe the purpose of FIRM.
