Detalles del Evento
In 2016, FEMA Region 8 and South Dakota Department of Emergency Management identified a need to update flood hazard information for 27 counties in the eastern side of the State. New preliminary flood maps, known as Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs), were released for Sanborn County on December 13, 2022. The new digital maps use updated data and science to show the extent to which the areas throughout Sanborn County are at risk for flooding, which may affect floodplain development requirements and/or flood insurance rates once effective.
Join Sanborn County, SD OEM, and FEMA Region 8 on Tuesday, June 13 to review this project and have an for an opportunity to:
- Find your property and learn your current flood risk
- Get answers to your questions
- Learn about flood insurance
- Get information on how the newly updated maps may impact insurance and building requirements
- Hear about potential cost savings
