Flood Zones:<\/SPAN><\/P>

A: <\/SPAN><\/SPAN>Areas with a 1% annual chance of flooding and a 26% chance of flooding over the life of a 30\u2010year mortgage. Because detailed analyses are not performed for such areas; no depths or base flood elevations are shown within these zones.<\/SPAN><\/P>

AE: <\/SPAN><\/SPAN>The base floodplain where base flood elevations are provided. AE Zones are now used on new format FIRMs instead of A1\u2010A30 Zones.<\/SPAN><\/P>

AH: <\/SPAN><\/SPAN>Areas with a 1% annual chance of shallow flooding, usually in the form of a pond, with an average depth ranging from 1 to 3 feet. These areas have a 26% chance of flooding over the life of a 30\u2010year mortgage. Base flood elevations derived from detailed analyses are shown at selected intervals within these zones.<\/SPAN><\/P>

AO: <\/SPAN><\/SPAN>River or stream flood hazard areas, and areas with a 1% or greater chance of shallow flooding each year, usually in the form of sheet flow, with an average depth ranging from 1 to 3 feet. These areas have a 26% chance of flooding over the life of a 30\u2010year mortgage. Average flood depths derived from detailed analyses are shown within these zones.<\/SPAN><\/P>
