This
notice contains the revised fee
schedules for processing certain types of
requests for changes to National Flood
Insurance Program (NFIP) maps, for
processing requests for Flood Insurance
Study (FIS) technical and administrative
support data, and for processing
requests for particular NFIP map and

(FEMA) to reduce further the expenses
to the NFIP by recovering more fully the

conditional and final map change
requests; retrieving, reproducing, and

administrative support data related to
FIS analyses and mapping; and

Evaluations Performed. To develop
the revised fee schedule for conditional
and final map change requests, FEMA
evaluated the actual costs of reviewing
and processing requests for Conditional
Letters of Map Amendment (CLOMAs),
Conditional Letters of Map Revision
Based on Fill (CLOMR–Fs), Conditional
Letters of Map Revision (CLOMRs),
Letters of Map Revision Based on Fill
(LOMR–Fs), and Letters of Map
Revision (LOMRs).
To develop the revised fee schedule
requests for FIS technical and
administrative support data, FEMA
evaluated the actual costs of reviewing,
reproducing, and distributing archived
data in seven categories. These
categories are discussed in more detail
below.
To develop the revised fee schedule
for requests for particular NFIP map and
insurance products, FEMA: (1)
Evaluated the actual costs incurred at
the Map Service Center (MSC) for
producing, retrieving, and distributing
those products; (2) analyzed historical
sales, cost data, and product unit cost
for unusual trends or anomalies; and, (3)
analyzed the effect of program changes,
new products, technology investments,
and other factors on future sales and
product costs. The products covered by
this notice are discussed in detail
below.
Periodic Evaluations of Fees. A
primary component of the fees is the
prevailing private-sector rates charged
to FEMA for labor and materials.
