For all Letter of Map Revision, Conditional Letter of Map and Physical Map Revisions: For individual or community requests, these forms should be used for revisions to effective Flood Insurance Study reports, Flood Insurance Rate Maps or Flood Boundary and Floodway Maps.

Communities participating in the Community Rating System (CRS) are required to use the FEMA Online Elevation Certificate, FEMA Form FF-206-FY-22-152 (formerly 086-0-33).

This is a letter that reflects an official change to an ef- fective Flood Insurance Rate Map. These letters are issued by FEMA to revies or ammend an existing flood map and can remove a property or reflect a change in flooding condition.

LOMRs can result in a physical change to the existing regulatory floodway, the effective Base Flood Elevations (BFEs), or the Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA). LOMR reviews take up to 90 days to process, are subject to an appeal period, and usually become effective within six months after they are issued.

LOMA – A Letter of Map Amendment (LOMA) is an official amendment, by letter, to an effective NFIP map. A LOMA establishes a property's location in relation to the SFHA. LOMR – A Letter of Map Revision (LOMR) is an official revision, by letter, to an effective NFIP map.

A LOMA is a Letter of Map Amendment. It is a document from FEMA which states that while a structure, or portion of property, is mapped within the flood zone; it is not at risk for flooding based on the elevation of the structure, or portion of the property. How will a LOMA help me?

If a property owner believes their property has been incorrectly mapped in a Special Flood Hazard Area, homeowners, property owners, or their representatives may submit a request to the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) for a Letter of Map Change (LOMC).
