Halverson Land Surveying can be a strong advocate for property owners exploring flood insurance requirements. If you are currently paying for flood insurance but feel your home, business or other building is not in danger of flooding, an Elevation Certificate may help you avoid unnecessary insurance charges.
Overview of Process
Property owners petitioning for the removal of a structure from a flood zone can use data provided by Halverson Land Surveying
to support the process for a flood zone revision. After the Elevation Certificate is completed, this can be submitted to the
Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) for review and potential reclassification of flood zone status. This is an important
tool for the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP).
Note that this certificate alone does not provide a waiver of flood insurance. It is a tool to be used to determine if other
forms are necessary, such as the Letter of Map Amendment (LOMA) or Letter of Map Revision (LOMR), both items that
can be explained in more detail by the professionals at Halverson Land Surveying.
