LOMR Delegation Program
The Harris County Flood Control District has been selected by the Federal Emergency Management Association (FEMA) to participate in the Letter of Map Revision (LOMR) Delegation Program. This program delegates select agencies across the country the responsibility of performing the technical review function for Letters of Map Revision (LOMRs) and Conditional Letters of Map Revision (CLOMRs) in their local community on behalf of FEMA. To date, there are only four other agencies across the country who have been selected to participate. Other requests such as Physical Map Revisions (PMRs), Letters of Map Amendment (LOMAs), and Letters of Map Revision Based on Fill (LOMR-Fs) will continue to be reviewed by FEMA. The District officially began receiving these submittals for Harris County on September 1, 2010.
The District performing this role provides several benefits to the community, which include:
- Local management of engineering models/supporting data and floodplain maps
- Knowledge of local area issues and projects
- Coordination of adjacent active LOMRs/CLOMRs
- Availability to discuss submittals with District staff
