FEMA FIRM 'map not printed"

there was a post about a week or so ago regarding this.

as i recall it meant that none of the area was in a flood hazard area.

do a search on this site.

See this [msg=3840]post[/msg]. They say check out the index panel notes. It's my understanding is that there are no flood zones on unprinted panels.

Definitely check out the index map. Unprinted panels may either have no special flood hazard areas or the entire panel may be in one zone. For instance on the June 1992 index sheet for Town of Jupiter, Fl (125119IND0) the unprinted sheets are marked with an * and the note below indicates that the entire panel is in Zone B.

Thanks. i trying to pull the index. The site is WAY out in west Martin County and borders the Palm Beach county line. only a few miles away from Lake Okeechobee and everything around it is wet. Thanks for the help.

I use the map on FEMA's website to get the panel number for the area that I'm working on. If I get hit with a panel not printed, I back up and use the "Product Catalog" link to drill down by state, county, & community. This gives the full listing of the panels for the community and is the quickest way I know of to get to the index panel. The index should be the first sheet listed. Good Luck.

FEMA FIRM 'map not printed" CHECK OUT THE NFHL

Today I received an email from the FEMA Risk MAP CDS Team regarding a series of changes to the FEMA Map Service Center. While the updates have been ongoing for some time, they finally completed them. The most notable changes are to the National Flood Hazard Layer (NFHL). These changes include:

• NFHL databases are downloadable from MSC Product Catalog.
• Effective DFIRM Databases have been replaced by the NFHL Databases, which are available at no charge.
• County/Community NFHL Databases are refreshed for updates on a daily basis.
