Procedure Memorandum No. 57: Expanded Appeals Process

FEMA is revising its existing appeal policy to expand the due process procedures currently provided for new or modified Base Flood Elevations (BFEs) to other new or modified flood hazard information shown on a Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM), including additions or modifications to any Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA) or regulatory floodway. The policy change affects both studies and Letters of Map Revision (LOMRs). There will be significant impacts on existing procedures, letters, and other documentation related to the Appeals Process.
