I passed the CFM. It was not that bad.

I did fail the address and name parts... since I spend more time at work my mail goes there and my house has no mail box. I checked the office as the primary address but they sent the cert to my home anyhow. My name is tough so I am certified as Jonathan Eldredge rather than J. Thaddeus Eldredge. Oh well my alter ego Jonathan is a CFM and my regular ego Thaddeus is a PLS.

Funny story... I got it to win an argument with a difficult beaurocrat who claimed my fpc delination was wrong even after my eloquent argument: I don't think FEMA would go to the trouble of putting in an AE11 when they want the AE13 to go all the way to the 13' contour.

Her curt response haunts me to this day. We will take what you say under advisement but it does not mean that we believe you.

So on the next one I can simply ask for her CFM to explain how coastal flooding works. Oh yeah, her department lost their CFM just after she took the reigns...

I hope everyone here is well. Been busy and lurking here and there.

Some here may not know that CFM in this case refers to Certified Floodplain Manager. It isn't cubic feet per minute this time.
