 FEMA Flood Map Changes for Surveyors is a live presentation webinar which focuses on how to change FEMA flood maps.  The ability to handle floodplain problems is very important.  Since surveyors are typically involved in the land development process, it makes sense for surveyors to learn more about floodplain issues, particularly the correction of flood zone locations on FEMA maps.  Improperly mapped flood zones on FEMA Flood Maps cost property owners and developers a great deal of money. 

Skills which address the changing of flood zone limits are valuable tools in the surveyor’s tool-box.
