FEMA Flood Elevation Certificate Features

A flood elevation survey includes:

  • elevation above mean sea level taken at building corners
  • sidewalks
  • building first floor and lowest floor
  • location of the building (longitude and latitude)
  • flood zone designation

These are aspects all going into receiving a FEMA flood elevation certificate in the greater New York City area. It is vital that buildings in dangerous areas have the proper certification in order to best combat dangerous weather circumstances should they arise. In relation to this certificate is a raising program survey, which our staff also provides clients. Raising awareness for flood risks is the main objective of a raising program survey.

FEMA Flood Elevation Certificate Importance

The FEMA Flood Elevation Certificate plays a key role in the National Flood Insurance Program. It is used to certify buildings located within Special Flood Hazard Areas (SFHAs), helping determine the appropriate flood insurance premium for a property and supporting requests for a Letter of Map Amendment. Only licensed land surveyors, engineers, or architects are authorized to complete this certificate.

These certificates are part of broader efforts to improve safety in flood-prone areas. Flood zones are regions identified by government studies as having varying risks of flooding, often due to heavy storms or coastal exposure. The likelihood and severity of flooding in these areas can differ—from minimal to high-risk. A flood elevation certificate helps assess the flood risk of a specific property, making it easier for residents, property owners, and insurers to understand and prepare for potential flood hazards.
