What is a LOMA?

Leadership and Organizational Management Assessment
Letter Of Map Amendment
Library of Modern Art
Local Operations Management Agency

The correct answer is: Letter Of Map Amendment

A LOMA stands for "Letter of Map Amendment." This is a document issued by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) that officially amends a property's flood zone status as shown on a flood insurance rate map. This means that if a property is designated as being in a high-risk flood zone, known as a Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA), a LOMA can be obtained to show that the structure on the property is not actually at risk of flooding. Option A, "Leadership and Organizational Management Assessment," is not a commonly used acronym and is not related to geographic or property issues. Option C, "Library of Modern Art," is a commonly used acronym, but it is not related to geographic or property issues either. Option D, "Local Operations Management Agency," is also not a commonly used acronym and does not pertain to flood zone designations
