Service Description: <div style='text-align:Left;'>This is an update of the digital FIRM information in the state of Idaho. This feature class shows areas depicting a Letter of Map Revision (LOMR) boundary. The FIRM is the basis for floodplain management, mitigation, and insurance activities for the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). Insurance applications include enforcement of the mandatory purchase requirement of the Flood Disaster Protection Act, which "... requires the purchase of flood insurance by property owners who are being assisted by Federal programs or by Federally supervised, regulated or insured agencies or institutions in the acquisition or improvement of land facilities located or to be located in identified areas having special flood hazards," Section 2 (b) (4) of the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973. In addition to the identification of Special Flood Hazard Areas (SFHAs), the risk zones shown on the FIRMs are the basis for the establishment of premium rates for flood coverage offered through the NFIP. This Database presents the flood risk information depicted on the FIRM in a digital format suitable for use in electronic mapping applications. This database has been created by digitizing data from georeferenced paper FIRM maps in the Idaho counties specified by this project. This data should be used as a reference layer, not as an authoritative source. The Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) depicts flood risk information and supporting data used to develop the risk data. The primary risk classifications used are the 1-percent-annual-chance flood event (A or AE) and the 0.2-percent-annual- chance flood event (X). The FIRM data can be derived from Flood Insurance Studies (FISs) and previously published Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs). The FISs and FIRMs are published by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). This database has been created by digitizing data from georeferenced paper FIRM maps and adding information from FIS where available. All FIRMs were georeferenced at a 1:4000 scale or finer. This data should be used as a reference layer, not as an authoritative source. Section 11 of FEMA's "Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) Database Technical Reference: Preparing Flood Insurance Rate Map Databases (Nov. 2022)" document contains a detailed description of each attribute code and a reference to other relevant information. <a href='https://www.fema.gov/flood-maps/guidance-reports/guidelines-standards/technical-references-flood-risk-analysis-and-mapping' target='_blank'>https://www.fema.gov/flood-maps/guidance-reports/guidelines-standards/technical-references-flood-risk-analysis-and-mapping</a> <a href='https://www.fema.gov/sites/default/files/documents/fema_firm-database-technical-reference_112022.pdf' target='_blank'>https://www.fema.gov/sites/default/files/documents/fema_firm-database-technical-reference_112022.pdf</a> </div>
