What signifies Numbered A Zones on a Flood Insurance Rate Map?

Zone A#
Zone A
Zone AE
A Zones

The correct answer is: Zone A#

A Zones are areas which have at least a 1% annual chance of flooding. This means that there is a high risk of flooding in these areas. The other options, Zone A#, Zone A, and CZone AE, are incorrect because they do not accurately describe the specific designation of "A Zone". Zone A# and CZone AE do not exist on Flood Insurance Rate Maps, while Zone A may be too broad and could refer to any type of zone within the A designation. Additionally, the option "D A Zones" is not as specific as the correct answer and does not fully explain the significance of the designated A Zones on a flood insurance rate map.
