Which document would a property owner reference for official flood hazard data in their area?

  1. CLOMR

  2. DLG

  3. EC

  4. DFIRM

The correct answer is: DFIRM

The DFIRM stands for Digital Flood Insurance Rate Map, which is the official flood hazard data guide for property owners. A CLOMR or a Conditional Letter of Map Revision is issued to modify, revise, or amend a currently effective National Flood Insurance program map. A DLG or Digital Line Graph is a map that is often not up-to-date and may not provide accurate flood risk information. The EC or Emergency Conservation program does not provide flood hazard data, rather it focuses on assisting farmers and ranchers in recovering from natural disasters.
