FEMA Flood Insurance Rate Maps and Open Houses

Village of Granville NY

News Release

FEMA Issues Revised Flood Insurance Rate Maps for Washington County, New York There will be three Open Houses on Flood Risk and Insurance on April 16, 17 and 18, 2024.

WASHINGTON CO, NY – County, state and federal officials are working to reduce the effects of severe weather and natural disasters. On December 15, 2023, FEMA released preliminary Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs) for Washington County for public comments. The new maps give updated information about communities’ flood risk.

They are used to identify areas that may require flood insurance coverage. The current effective paper maps for Washington County were developed between the 1970s and 2000s. Some areas show major flood hazard changes when the new preliminary maps are compared to the current effective maps.

FEMA, the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation and Washington County officials invite residents to learn if the new maps affect them and what they can do take to protect themselves. The Flood Risk and Insurance Open Houses will be held:

Tuesday, April 16, 2024. 5 to 8 p.m.
at the: Bancroft Public Library
181 S. Main St., Salem, NY 12865

Wednesday, April 17, 2024 3to 6 p.m.
at:Whitehall Town Hall
57 Skenesborough Drive, Whitehall, NY 12887

Thursday, April 18, 2024 12 to 3 p.m.
at the: Washington County Municipal Building B
383 Broadway, Fort Edward, NY 12828

The Open Houses will not have a formal presentation. Residents can attend any Open House for any length of time.

At the meetings, residents can talk one-on-one with FEMA representatives. They can learn more about their flood risk and to get information on potential changes to flood insurance rates and requirements. If you already have flood insurance, please bring a copy of your declaration page. Residents can also see preliminary versions of the Flood

Insurance Study report and the FIRMs here. They can see the updated preliminary maps compared to the old paper maps using the Old Paper Effective vs. New Digital Preliminary Data viewer.

To learn more or to access the flood maps, visit FEMA’s Flood Map Service Center at msc.fema.gov. Visit floodsmart.gov to learn about flood insurance. You may also contact a map specialist at the FEMA Mapping and Insurance eXchange (FMIX) at (877) 336-2627 or FEMA-FMIX@fema.dhs.gov.
