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

Written administrative procedures allow for continuity of operations when a new floodplain manager steps into a job. These Written Administrative Procedures provide a fill-in-the-blanks format to make it easy for community adaption.
