Request for a Lender Flood Hazard Determination Review. Lenders use flood zone determination companies when deciding whether structures are in a floodplain or not. When a structure is not in the floodplain, some property owners apply for a LODR or LOMA or have the lender inform the flood zone determination company that there is a “dispute” and request that the determination be “reviewed” or “rechecked.” (Note: "Dispute," "reviewed," or "re-checked" are the specific words that have to be used; also, lenders should not submit a new determination order). If the property owner cannot get resolution, then a LOMA OAS is an option. Visit the Letters of Map Change page for more information.
List of Flood Zone Determination Companies is available online
