Well, things got very dis-threaded. When dealing with FEMA, just redo your data and resubmit it. It'll sail right through. There's no one in FEMA that has any clue what punch card input is.
I swear FEMA is like an assembly line. Each person is assigned to look only at one piece of "fill in the blank". Inspector #8 who is responsible for the eighth potential data item notes a concern. Inspector #8 has it returned. You resubmit. Then Inspector #19 finds a concern with nineteenth potential data item and notifies you. You resubmit. Then Inspector .................................................
Let ONE inspector look at the entire form and note any and all concerns so that you only receive, potentially, one notice with any/all issues of concern. Oh, NO! That would make too much sense and the Government is not allowed to make sense. I am on my fourth submittal on a clear situation, right now. The most recent comment was that I needed to verify that my elevations are correct because they seem to be "much lower" than adjacent tracts. How much is much lower? O.2 feet or 20 feet? The elevations are correct and match up well with the BFE value. BTW, the tract is nearly identical to the entire block.

If you were younger you could get a job with FEMA advance to the top and fix those problems.
