LOMRLOMR--FFCommunity Acknowledgement FormCommunity Acknowledgement Form
– As the community official responsible for floodplain management, I hereby acknowledge that we have received and reviewed this Letter of Map Revision Based on Fill (LOMR-F) or Conditional LOMR-F request. Based upon the community's review, we find the completed or proposed project meets or is designed to meet all of the community floodplain management requirements, including the requirement that no fill be placed in the regulatory floodway, and that all necessary Federal, State, and local permits have been, or in the case of a Conditional LOMR-F, will be obtained. For Conditional LOMR-F
t th li t h ill d t E d d S i A t (ESA) li trequests, the applicant has or will document Endangered Species Act (ESA) compliance to FEMA prior to issuance of the Conditional LOMR-F determination. For LOMR-F requests, I acknowledge that compliance with Sections 9 and 10 of the ESA has been achieved independently of FEMA’s process. Section 9 of the ESA prohibits anyone from “taking” or harming an endangered species. If an action might harm an endangered species, a permit is required from U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service or National Marine Fisheries Service under Section 10 of the ESA. For actions authorized, funded, or being carried out by Federal or State agencies, documentation from the agency showing its compliance with Section 7(a)(2) of the ESA will be submitted. In addition, we have determined that the land and any existing or proposed structures to be removed from the SFHA are or will be reasonably safe from flooding as defined in 44CFR 65.2(c), and that we have available upon request by DHS-FEMA, all analyses and documentation used to make this determination. For LOMR-F requests, we understand that this request is being38

Types of AmendmentsUse the Online LOMC to submit an Amendment (MT-EZ, MT-1)
Types of LOMAs Description
Letter of Map Amendment (LOMA)
Typically, a LOMA is issued when the scale of the FIRM does not allow for small areas of natural high ground to be shown outside the SFHA
Conditional Letter of Map Amendment
A letter from FEMA stating a proposed structure that is not to be elevated by fill (natural grade) would not be inundated by the base

y ( g ) yflood if built as proposed
Letter of Map Revision based on Fill (LOMR-F)
A LOMR-F is similar to a LOMA, but instead of being based on natural ground elevations, the property or structure has been elevated by fill in order to elevate it above the flood elevation
Conditional Letter of Map Revision based on Fill (CLOMR-F)
A letter from FEMA stating a parcel of land or proposed structure that will be elevated by fill would not be inundated by the base flood if fill is placed on the parcel as proposed or the structure is built as proposed
